You can develop existing passions and explore new interests-and find a major that will put you on the career path you want. Computer Science Not only will you lean more about computers-hardware and software, but you'll also learn about the applications of such knowledge. As a computer science major, you'll be exposed to areas such as robotics, natural language recognition programs,artificial intelligence, programming languages,numerical analysis, and gaming technology. Problem solving is a major component of computer science, no matter which section of the industry you want to pursue. Communications Communications majors tend to be great storytellers. You'll learn about oral and written messages, audience reaction, and the varied effects of different communication environments. It will prepare you for a wealth of career options in business, advertising, human resources, public relations, government, education, media, and social services. Economics Economics is the study of choices - those of individuals, businesses, governments, and societies and how they choose to spend their time and money and otherwise allocate their resources. It is also an excellent preparation for a future in business, as well as for graduate studies in law, public policy,and international studies. 1. Who is this article intended for? A. College applicants. B. College graduates. C. College professors. D. College workers. 2. What does Computer Science mainly focus on? A. Career choosing. B. Problem solving. C. Data analyzing. D. Language programming. 3. What do Communications and Economics have in common? A. They mean a higher salary. B. They are both difficult to learn. C. They prepare people for businesses. D. They offer the choices of distributing their resources. B To understand the impact of ice melting around the world,we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is. Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is a huge mass of glacial land. This ice, home to a group of diverse animals, is now melting at a rate that cannot support the life it currently holds. Many of the creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection,yet as the size decreases, they are forced out of their natural habitats in search of other land on which to live. Often this means long, drawn-out journeys to search for food and an imbalanced ecosystem arises when different species are forced together onto the coast. Since the 1990s, the caribou population has declined by 56 percent-climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter and rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food. In the summer, permafrost melts and releases previously trapped diseases which the caribous have no modern immunity to. In addition, the coming threat of sea levels rising if the ice caps were to disappear is ever looming. If the Greenland Ice Sheet melted, the sea level would rise around 6 metres, and if the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, sea levels would rise by around 20 feet. Since 1880, sea levels have risen about eight inches, three of which we've gained over the last 25 years. This seemingly small amount has already caused dangerous flooding, loss of farmland and more deadly hurricanes. While we're still a long way from losing the ice sheet all together, we've already lost too much, and if we don't take climate changes seriously now, we will surely hit the point of no return. 4. What does the author plan to do in Paragraph 1? A. To tell what an ice sheet actually is. B. To show serious impacts of ice melting. C. To compare the ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland. D. To introduce the practical ways of protecting the ice sheet. 5. Which of the following accurately explains the sharp decrease of the caribous? A. Food shortage. B. Deadly diseases. C. Much rainfall. D. Imbalanced ecosystem. 6. What does the underlined word “looming” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Lost to the world. B. Rising to the surface. C. Exposed to the virus. D. Coming to the end. 7. What can be the best title for the article? A. Warning of the Climate Changes B. Risks of the Ice Melting C. Cause of the Climate Changes D. Possibilities of the Ice Melting C A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profound human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 8. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A. To promote the language software. B. To show off his Chinese language skills. C. To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D. To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 9. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI translation deserves more attention. B. Language apps play a key role in marketing. C. Language translation is far beyond technology. D. Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 10. What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A Better digital literacy. B. Improved translation skills. C. Deeper cultural confidence. D. Effective intercultural interaction. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI language tools offer convenience. B. AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C. AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D. AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. D World history has seen three ancient dramas: Greek tragedy and comedy, Indian Sanskrit drama and Chinese opera. The first two have become historical and only Chinese opera has survived. Chinese opera took shape in the 12th century. After developing for more than 800 years, its abundant local styles of opera are still enjoying great popularity, of which Qingiang is one of the most ancient operas. Qinqiang opera is a thousand-year-old local opera originating in China’s inland northwestern region. It has established a unique tradition as an“opera shouted out”with its high-pitched arias(高音唱腔). LiMei has won a reputation as one of the four greatest Qinqiang actresses. She’s also known for her passionate commitment to exploring the theatrical possibilities offered by Qinqíang. LiMei and her workmates are halfway through an afternoon rehearsal(排练) and most have broken into a sweat Singing in a near whisper, the forty-year-old opera star performs the stylized movements for the leading role the bitter dead Lady Li Huiniang in Ghost’s Hate. Little wonder that LiMei is such a powerful presence on stage. She’s the greatest contributory actress who’s able to interpret a character so persuasively and tell a story so convincingly that European audiences warmly hug this unfamiliar art form. Li Mei said,“We performed this opera in the Netherlands to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the founding of Holland’s National Theater. We enjoyed e fifteen-minute curtain call and the audiences applauded wildly for a long time. The local press entitled me the ‘Nemesis of the Orient’ and ‘the Chinese Venus’, Why is that so?Because they’ve fully understood what the opera implied—the loyalty towards love, and dead as she maybe, her love persists. The reason why this opera was able to touch millions of hearts is that it has a beautiful story presented by a beautiful art form.” 12. What can be inferred about Chinese opera from the passage? A. It made history with ancient Greek operas. B. It has a history shorter than Indian Sanskrit drama. C. It consists of various dynamic local operas. D. It originated from the most ancient local Qinqiang opera. 13. What is the greatest feature of Oinqiang opera according to the passage? A. The popular curtain call B. The northwestern origin. C. The stylized movement. D. The spirited high tone. 14. Why is Ghost’s Hate starring Li Mei loved by foreigners? A. Because it has a perfect combination of touching plot and attractive form. B. Because its leading role Li Mei is famous as the ‘Chinese Venus’. C. Because it conveys the popular messages of loyalty towards love. D. Because the story is easy to be fully understood by foreigners. 15. What is Li Mei’s greatest contribution to Qinqiang opera? A. She won a reputation as one of the four greatest Qinqiang actresses. B. She brought Li Huiniang, the bitter dead Lady in Ghost’s Hate to life. C. She explored many theatrical possibilities offered by Qinqiang opera. D. She spread one of Chinese traditional cultures to the other side of the world. 第二节 七选五(每题2.5分,满分12.5分) Note-taking is an important skill in and out of school, you can make the difference between passing and filing a test, being good at a job or even enjoying a complicated movie.____16____ We’re taught from a very young age that when a teacher starts delivering a load of information, we should write down as much what they’re saying as possible.

Eartha’s Grandma had been practising yoga for more than 50 years, who could twist, bend and curl her body with ease. She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses. “Eartha, your name means ‘patience’.You need patience for yoga,” said her Grandma. Like many schools in the country,Eartha’ s school held an annual yoga competition. Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud. But she could hardly stand on one leg. Grandma returned to the kitchen.Eartha kept practicing hard. She stood straight, her arms at her sides. She moved her hands and knees, arching her back. All of these poses were easy,while the competition was certain to be harder. So she tried more challenging poses, lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands. Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor. Eartha wandered into the kitchen. “Finished already?” asked Grandma. “It’s hard,” Eartha said. “How did you get to be so strong?” Grandma smiled. “Patience.” The next morning, Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body. Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit. However, her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind, and she held the pose for a longer time. Each day Eartha would practice anew pose, before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days.With the date of the competition approaching, she started to feel stronger and more flexible. Her arms and legs stopped trembling. The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected. In the gym, Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her. Everything went smoothly. Just then,so eager was she to win Grandma’s pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience, and rigidness. Eartha fell on the mat, which cost her edge over other competitors. A bell rang, ending the first half of the competition. 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江阴市第二中学高二英语12月阶段检测 第一部分 听力(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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

You can develop existing passions and explore new interests-and find a major that will put you on the career path you want.（大学给你很多学术自由。 你可以培养现有的激情，探索新的兴趣——找到一个能让你走上理想职业道路的专业）”由此可知，文章是为了选择专业，则可以推断出是写给学院申请者，也就是选择专业的大学生的。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Computer Science中“As a computer science major, you'll be exposed to areas such as robotics, natural language recognition programs, artificial intelligence, programming languages, numerical analysis, and gaming technology. Problem solving is a major component of computer science, no matter which section of the industry you want to pursue.（作为一名计算机科学专业的学生，你将接触到机器人、自然语言识别程序、人工智能、编程语言、数字分析和游戏技术等领域。 解决问题是计算机科学的一个主要组成部分，无论你想从事哪个行业）”，由此可知，Computer Science主要集中在解决问题上。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Communications中“It will prepare you for a wealth of career options in business, advertising, human resources, public relations,（它将为你在商业、广告、人力资源、公共关系等领域提供丰富的职业选择）”和Economics中“Economics is the study of choices - those of individuals, businesses, governments, and societies and how they choose to spend their time and money and otherwise allocate their resources. It is also an excellent preparation for a future in business（经济学是研究选择的学科——个人、企业、政府和社会的选择，以及他们如何选择花费时间和金钱，以及如何分配资源。 这也是对未来商业的一个极好的准备 ）”，由此可知，两者均提到了business，所以“他们为人们的商业做准备”是共同点。故选C。 B To understand the impact of ice melting around the world,we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is. Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is a huge mass of glacial land. This ice, home to a group of diverse animals, is now melting at a rate that cannot support the life it currently holds. Many of the creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection,yet as the size decreases, they are forced out of their natural habitats in search of other land on which to live. Often this means long, drawn-out journeys to search for food and an imbalanced ecosystem arises when different species are forced together onto the coast. Since the 1990s, the caribou population has declined by 56 percent-climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter and rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food. In the summer, permafrost melts and releases previously trapped diseases which the caribous have no modern immunity to. In addition, the coming threat of sea levels rising if the ice caps were to disappear is ever looming. If the Greenland Ice Sheet melted, the sea level would rise around 6 metres, and if the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, sea levels would rise by around 20 feet. Since 1880, sea levels have risen about eight inches, three of which we've gained over the last 25 years. This seemingly small amount has already caused dangerous flooding, loss of farmland and more deadly hurricanes. While we're still a long way from losing the ice sheet all together, we've already lost too much, and if we don't take climate changes seriously now, we will surely hit the point of no return. 4. What does the author plan to do in Paragraph 1? A. To tell what an ice sheet actually is. B. To show serious impacts of ice melting. C. To compare the ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland. D. To introduce the practical ways of protecting the ice sheet. 5. Which of the following accurately explains the sharp decrease of the caribous? A. Food shortage. B. Deadly diseases. C. Much rainfall. D. Imbalanced ecosystem. 6. What does the underlined word “looming” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Lost to the world. B. Rising to the surface. C. Exposed to the virus. D. Coming to the end. 7. What can be the best title for the article? A. Warning of the Climate Changes B. Risks of the Ice Melting C. Cause of the Climate Changes D. Possibilities of the Ice Melting 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。关于天气变化的警告，主要表现为冰川融化，造成的天气变化也导致了北美驯鹿的数量减少和海平面的上升，呼吁我们要重视起冰川融化这个问题，如果不引起重视，将面临不可扭转的局面。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“To understand the impact of ice melting around the world, we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is. Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is a huge mass of glacial land. This ice, home to a group of diverse animals, is now melting at a rate that cannot support the life it currently holds. Many of the creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection, yet as the size decreases, they are forced out of their natural habitats in search of other land on which to live. Often this means long, drawn-out journeys to search for food and an imbalanced ecosystem arises when different species are forced together onto the coast. (要了解全球冰融化的影响，我们首先要了解冰盖到底是什么。冰盖在南极洲覆盖540万平方英里，在格陵兰岛覆盖65.6万平方英里，冰盖是巨大的冰川陆地。这些冰是多种动物的家园，现在融化的速度已经无法维持目前的生命。许多生物依靠冰原作为休息、狩猎和保护的土地，然而随着冰原体积的减小，它们被迫离开它们的自然栖息地，寻找其他的土地生活。这通常意味着漫长的寻找食物的旅程，当不同的物种被迫一起来到海岸时，不平衡的生态系统就出现了)”可推知，作者在第一段想要表明冰融化的严重影响。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Since the 1990s, the caribou population has declined by 56 percent-climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter and rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food.(自20世纪90年代以来，北美驯鹿的数量已经减少了56%——气候变化导致冬季气温升高，降水取代了降雪，导致脚下更容易结冰，使行走和寻找食物变得困难)”可知，生态系统的不平衡是导致北美驯鹿减少的原因。故选D。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“the coming threat of sea levels rising if the ice caps were to disappear is ever”（如果冰盖消失，海平面上升的威胁将永远不会消失）以及后文“If the Greenland Ice Sheet melted, the sea level would rise around 6 metres, and if the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, sea levels would rise by around 20 feet.”（如果格陵兰冰盖融化，海平面将上升约6米，如果南极冰盖融化，海平面将上升约20英尺，）可见如果冰盖消失，海平面也将上升。故画线词意思是“水面上升”。故选B。 7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“While we're still a long way from losing the ice sheet all together, we've already lost too much, and if we don't take climate changes seriously now, we will surely hit the point of no return.(虽然我们离全部失去冰盖还有很长的路要走，但我们已经失去了太多，如果我们现在不认真对待气候变化，我们肯定会陷入无法挽回的境地)”结合文章说明了关于天气变化的警告，主要表现为冰川融化，造成的天气变化也导致了北美驯鹿的数量减少和海平面的上升，呼吁我们要重视起冰川融化这个问题，如果不引起重视，将面临不可扭转的局面。可知，A选项“气候变化的警告”最符合文章标题。故选A。 C A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profound human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 8. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A. To promote the language software. B. To show off his Chinese language skills. C. To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D. To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 9. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI translation deserves more attention. B. Language apps play a key role in marketing. C. Language translation is far beyond technology. D. Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 10. What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A. Better digital literacy. B. Improved translation skills. C. Deeper cultural confidence. D. Effective intercultural interaction. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI language tools offer convenience. B. AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C. AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D. AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能语言工具的便利性与语言学习的文化深度之间的差异，作者引导我们对人工智能语言工具进行批判性思考然后得出结论：人工智能在帮助语言理解方面远非完美。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. ‘My favorite food is sushi,’ I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi.(几天前，我看了一段我自己说一口流利汉语视频。我断断续续地学习这门语言才几年，还远谈不上流利。但我就这样，每个字的发音就像母语人士一样。‘我最喜欢的食物是寿司，’我说——我最喜欢吃寿司。)”以及下文，尤其是最后一段中“In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning.(从本质上讲，虽然人工智能语言工具提供了便利，但它们缺乏人类语言学习所带来的深度和文化洞察力。)”可知，文章第一段以作者自己的体验引出AI语言工具，然后鼓励对AI语言工具进行批判性思考。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience.(然而，语言翻译是一门艺术，而不是一门科学。为了换取这种便利，将失去一些巨大的东西。)”以及“Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,(在广泛不同的语言（如中文和英文）之间建立一个阶梯，有时就像医生在病人心中架起一座桥梁一样困难，)”可知，语言翻译并不是技术能解决的问题，它远远超出了技术范畴。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段中“Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of Al, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. (语言教授黛博拉·科恩强调，语言学习实际上是关于理解和联系不同的文化；一些教育工作者主张强调语言学习的跨文化方面，而不是放弃语言课程而选择人工智能。)”可知，学习语言的主要好处是有效的跨文化互动。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry(织锦)that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve.(本质上，虽然人工智能语言工具提供了便利，但它们缺乏人类语言学习的深度和文化洞察力。学习一门语言的挑战和美妙之处在于理解通过单词编织的文化挂毯，这是人工智能尚未实现的。)”可知，作者在最后一段表明人工智能在帮助语言理解方面远非完美，因为人工智能语言工具缺乏人类语言学习的深度和文化洞察力。故选C项。 D World history has seen three ancient dramas: Greek tragedy and comedy, Indian Sanskrit drama and Chinese opera. The first two have become historical and only Chinese opera has survived. Chinese opera took shape in the 12th century. After developing for more than 800 years, its abundant local styles of opera are still enjoying great popularity, of which Qingiang is one of the most ancient operas. Qinqiang opera is a thousand-year-old local opera originating in China’s inland northwestern region. It has established a unique tradition as an“opera shouted out”with its high-pitched arias(高音唱腔). LiMei has won a reputation as one of the four greatest Qinqiang actresses. She’s also known for her passionate commitment to exploring the theatrical possibilities offered by Qinqíang. LiMei and her workmates are halfway through an afternoon rehearsal(排练) and most have broken into a sweat Singing in a near whisper, the forty-year-old opera star performs the stylized movements for the leading role the bitter dead Lady Li Huiniang in Ghost’s Hate. Little wonder that LiMei is such a powerful presence on stage. She’s the greatest contributory actress who’s able to interpret a character so persuasively and tell a story so convincingly that European audiences warmly hug this unfamiliar art form. Li Mei said,“We performed this opera in the Netherlands to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the founding of Holland’s National Theater. We enjoyed e fifteen-minute curtain call and the audiences applauded wildly for a long time. The local press entitled me the ‘Nemesis of the Orient’ and ‘the Chinese Venus’, Why is that so?Because they’ve fully understood what the opera implied—the loyalty towards love, and dead as she maybe, her love persists. The reason why this opera was able to touch millions of hearts is that it has a beautiful story presented by a beautiful art form.” 12. What can be inferred about Chinese opera from the passage? A. It made history with ancient Greek operas. B. It has a history shorter than Indian Sanskrit drama. C. It consists of various dynamic local operas. D. It originated from the most ancient local Qinqiang opera. 13 What is the greatest feature of Oinqiang opera according to the passage? A. The popular curtain call B. The northwestern origin. C. The stylized movement. D. The spirited high tone. 14. Why is Ghost’s Hate starring Li Mei loved by foreigners? A. Because it has a perfect combination of touching plot and attractive form. B. Because its leading role Li Mei is famous as the ‘Chinese Venus’. C. Because it conveys the popular messages of loyalty towards love. D. Because the story is easy to be fully understood by foreigners. 15. What is Li Mei’s greatest contribution to Qinqiang opera? A. She won a reputation as one of the four greatest Qinqiang actresses. B. She brought Li Huiniang, the bitter dead Lady in Ghost’s Hate to life. C. She explored many theatrical possibilities offered by Qinqiang opera. D. She spread one of Chinese traditional cultures to the other side of the world. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15.

Eartha’s Grandma had been practising yoga for more than 50 years, who could twist, bend and curl her body with ease. She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses. “Eartha, your name means ‘patience’.You need patience for yoga,” said her Grandma. Like many schools in the country,Eartha’ s school held an annual yoga competition. Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud. But she could hardly stand on one leg. Grandma returned to the kitchen.Eartha kept practicing hard. She stood straight, her arms at her sides. She moved her hands and knees, arching her back. All of these poses were easy,while the competition was certain to be harder. So she tried more challenging poses, lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands. Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor. Eartha wandered into the kitchen. “Finished already?” asked Grandma. “It’s hard,” Eartha said. “How did you get to be so strong?” Grandma smiled. “Patience.” The next morning, Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body. Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit. However, her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind, and she held the pose for a longer time. Each day Eartha would practice anew pose, before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days.With the date of the competition approaching, she started to feel stronger and more flexible. Her arms and legs stopped trembling. The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected. In the gym, Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her. Everything went smoothly. Just then,so eager was she to win Grandma’s pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience, and rigidness. Eartha fell on the mat, which cost her edge over other competitors. A bell rang, ending the first half of the competition. 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma. Grandma settled at the front seat, kindly smiling and waving to her. Head hanging, Eartha shuffled to Grandma with heavy footsteps.“I’m proud of you!” Grandma whispered softly. Astonished and unexpected, Eartha stared at Grandma with a bit skeptical expression. Although relieved of frustration temporarily, she was increasingly concerned about the next half. Sensing her worries, Grandma asked if she still remembered the meaning of her name. Eartha nodded, reflecting on her hard practices. Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. Completely relaxed, Eartha immersed herself in poses, letting go of anything that might distract her. So full of patience and balance was every pose that flexibility was perfectly demonstrated, which made her standout among other competitors. When she finished, the whole gym burst into thunderous applause and grandma beamed at her with unprecedented pride. Smiling back, Eartha ultimately understood the significance of patience and calmness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了艾萨所在的学校每年都会举办瑜伽比赛。艾萨想让她的奶奶感到骄傲于是艾莎和奶奶学练习瑜伽，但是动作对于她来说太难坚持，奶奶对她的忠告是要耐心的，最后艾萨参加比赛的日子到来，上半场表现不佳的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“艾萨认为她因为不耐烦而毁了一切，她看着观众寻找奶奶”可知，第一段可描写艾萨上半场表现不佳，奶奶的表现和鼓励。 ②由第二段首句内容“平静而自信的艾萨踏上了下半场比赛的舞台”可知，第二段可描写艾萨在奶奶的鼓励下顺利完成瑜伽比赛的过程。 2.续写线索： 奶奶鼓励——自信——顺利比赛——人们鼓掌——艾萨感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走向：shuffle to /walk to/approach ②爆发：burst into /burst out/outburst 情绪类 ①惊讶的：astonished/surprised /amazed ②担忧的：concerned/worried/anxious 【点睛】[高分句型1] Sensing her worries, Grandma asked if she still remembered the meaning of her name.(运用了if引导宾语从句和现在分词作状语) [高分句型2] So full of patience and balance was every pose that flexibility was perfectly demonstrated, which made her standout among other competitors.
