I know that you learned how to make dumplings.You’re so great. Now let me share my experience with you. Since I watched the Winter Olympics Games in Beijing, I have been in love with skating. From then on, I began to make up my mind to learn it. But as soon as I stepped on the ice, I stumbled over myself. I found it difficult to learn skating. Although I practiced again and again, and fell again and again, when I thought of the athletes on the field,I didn’t give up. Soon I could skate quite well. I'm proud of myself. From learning skating, I know while doing anything,we often meet many kinds of difficulties, but we shouldn’t lose heart. Instead, we should try our best to overcome them. Yours, Li Hua 第2节 (满分25分) Sample 1： I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. I explained to him the urgency of catching the bus, emphasizing that otherwise I would be forced to stay overnight and buy a new ticket the next morning. Ultimately, I suggested, “I will return to Vienna in 4 days. If it’s OK with you, I can pay you then, with an additional 10 euros as a gesture of my gratitude.” Following an uncomfortable pause, he simply nodded, saying, “I agree to this arrangement and trust you.” I thanked him with the biggest smile you can imagine, and we exchanged contact information before I got on the bus. Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. We arranged to meet at the airport, and upon our arrival, we hugged each other like long lost friends. When I gave him the extra €10 I had promised, he didn’t accept. “Buy me a beer next time you are in Vienna,” he said with a warm smile. Then we parted ways with a firm handshake and a promise to keep in touch. Gunter’s kindness had turned a potentially disastrous evening into a memorable story I would cherish for years to come. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年度高三级校内质检(四) 　 高三 英语 本试卷共8页,卷面满分120分,考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答题前，先将自己的姓名、考生号填写在答题卷上，并用2B铅笔将答题卷上相应的信息点涂黑。 2.选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卷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卷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，请将答题卷上交。 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Volunteer Zambia Volunteer Zambia is a unique international sport programme run by the Wallace Group—a cooperation between leading UK “sport” universities—to primarily support and work with the leading Zambian sports Non-Governmental Organization, Sport in Action.

Cycling felt like a celebration of dynamic energy, of blood and bone. A reminder that my body was still healthy and functioning despite the two heart operations I had as a kid, which took me out of sports entirely. I remember the doctor’s orders: no football, no physical education. They told me I was fragile (脆弱的), and so I became fragile. I was in middle school then. It felt as if my body had been taken away from me. They put me in a combination swing- dance-and-painting-class instead. But the doctors never said no cycling, and for a brief moment in central Texas, biking became more popular than football, which saved my social life. I still believe that the speed, the wind and the blood in the ears on a silent street can do that to my body—bring it back to life once again. As time wore on, I developed an affection for the night ride. Below the whoosh (呼啸声) of the wind, I listened for my heart, then the rhythm of my tires over sidewalk. The pain of hard physical effort would pale, not to mention the wind buffeting my face. The rough road constantly told me that there was a road beneath my tires and the possibility of travel. The stress on both the body and the bike made real what I’d suspected all along: although removed from my family, my friends, my former life, I still existed in these streets. There was a frivolity (轻松感) to the night ride, too, a kind of frivolity I hadn’t felt past years. I’d spent so much time sitting at a desk, sitting in bed, sitting on a sofa. My days were defined by constant anxiety and fear, and the world felt like a thing that happened to me, not something I could participate in. But during the night ride, I paid attention only to the moment. If I didn’t, I’d hit the pothole (坑洼) in the road. So by necessity, I became present, and I felt present, which is to say everything started to feel fun again. 24. What made the author have to choose the night ride? A. Doctors’ advice. B. Poor health. C. Heavy schoolwork. D. Cycling’s popularity. 25. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The author’s energy got restored. B. The author’s figure got reshaped. C. The author’s body became flexible. D. The author’s mind became strong. 26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The changes of the author’s life. B. The difficulties in biking at night. C. The reasons for enjoying the night ride. D. The doubts about the author’s social life. 27. What does the author want to convey by mentioning the past in the last paragraph? A. Life is about going with the flow. B. The past is full of endless regrets. C. Living for the moment is necessary. D. Learning from the past is invaluable. C The fast autonomous logging machine advanced down a Swedish forest path and scanned for piled logs to transport. It then lifted them up and loaded them onto its trailer. A new study of the truck-size robot suggests it could help forest workers with at least some deadly jobs. “It’s the first trial for us to see that the machine we built is perhaps capable of doing what we were dreaming it could do,” says Pedro La Hera, a roboticist and lead author of the study. Traditional logging jobs are often requiring operators to multitask and bear nearly constant vibration (振动) while operating logging vehicles. Tired foresters don’t always pay attention to other plants in the area, thus damaging the ecosystems around them. Logging is also dangerous; in the U. S., it has one of the highest death rates of any industry. Roboticists, software engineers and forestry scholars in Sweden set out to automate some logging tasks. They used GPS to set a path in a clear-cut area and equipped the vehicle with a computer vision system to help it identify, pick up and release cut logs. The predetermined task sequence (序列) demonstrates how, in a controlled environment, a machine with little to no human oversight could operate. “We have problems getting help working in the woods,” says Thomas Douglass, a logger in Guilford, Maine, “So it’s definitely an advancement.” For now these vehicles’ use may be limited to Sweden, where nearly all paths in forests are well identified, and satellites provide information on logged areas. Loggers in the U. S., in contrast, harvest trees both in plantations and in natural stands where self-piloted machinery would face more challenges. Still, the research highlights aspects of autonomous machinery that are worth developing further, says Dalia Abbas, a forester who has investigated the effects of logging operations in environmentally sensitive areas. Eventually, Abbas says, she “would definitely hope that it takes into account the fuller range of where it’s operating, whether it carries wildlife, other contaminants (污染物) or insects that come with the logs to avoid any harm, and its sensitivity to the terrain (地形).” 28. Which of the following best describes the traditional logging jobs? A. Demanding and risky. B. Tiring but rewarding. C. Profitable but dangerous. D. Promising and creative. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Where the logging machinery works best. B. What challenges the logging machinery faces. C. How the logging machinery achieves automation. D. Why GPS technology is used in the logging process. 30. Why is the use of automated logging vehicles restricted to Sweden? A. Its loggers are well equipped. B. Its forests are fully monitored. C. Its roads are specially designed. D. Its logged areas are easily accessible. 31. What is a future consideration for developing the logging machine? A. Its capacity of loading logs. B. Its impact on the ecosystem. C. The replacement of human labor. D. The convenience of its operation. D While the rest of us are sleeping, freshwater turtles(龟) from Central America to Asia are getting out of the water and basking(月光浴) at night. There have been reports of this behavior before, but now a new study is the first to document the widespread occurrence. The findings suggest this may be a common and almost entirely overlooked aspect of many species’ ecology. Dr. Donald MeKnight, one of the researchers, said he and a colleague first observed freshwater turtles night basking at the Ross River in Townsville, Australia. “We think it’s related to temperature. The water is staying so warm at night that it’s actually warmer than the turtles like to be and they can cool down by coming out of the water,” says MeKnight. For the study, researchers put cameras to watch the night activity of as many freshwater turtle species as possible. The cameras were set up in 25 locations. They were programmed to take a photo every two minutes. They collected data on 29 species of freshwater turtles. It would be lovely to think the turtles are just enjoying some leisure time when things are quiet. But the researchers note that in most cases, the turtles got out of water when the water was too warm and the air was cooler. Given the warming planet, that’s admittedly a bit depressing. However, not all of the nighttime baskers were escaping too-warm water. According to the study, turtles in India exhibited more basking on cooler nights, rather than warmer nights, and those in Africa spent more time basking at night in winter than in summer. The reasons for these differences are unclear. It may be that at some sites or seasons, turtles are escaping unfavourably warm water temperatures, while at others, they are taking advantage of the warm air to increase their body temperature and escape unfavourably cold water. Regardless of the “why” behind different species’ reasons for midnight basking, it’s a fascinating look at behaviors not previously documented by scientists. And it is at least encouraging to know that turtles are figuring out important behaviors tied to climate change. 32. Why do the freshwater turtles from Australia get out of water at night? A. To search for extra food. B. To avoid natural enemies. C. To cool themselves down. D. To enjoy the quietness outside. 33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How the study was conducted B. What the study brought about. C. Why the study was carried out. D. Where the study was made. 34. Which of the following are the researchers certain about? A. Turtles in Africa flee water often on summer nights. B. The water is unfavorable for turtles to survive in India. C. The reasons for turtles’ different behaviors are obvious. D. Night basking is caused by the change of water temperature. 35. How does the author feel about the finding? A. Skeptical. B. Positive. C. Surprised. D. Desperate. 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Traveling itself is an experience hard to be described in words. 36___________ Especially the solo(独自) traveling experience is so transforming that it lives with you forever.

I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought. That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn’t heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. “We made it,” he said. Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: “Out of order. Sorry.” 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。 ( Paragraph 1： I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news.
