Sometimes she knitted hats for babies, and at other times, she cooked chicken soup for sick neighbors. Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project. “I am going to telephone seniors,” said my mother. “Every night? But you don’t even know these people.” “It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.” I was sixteen years old and couldn’t understand why my mother was willing to spend her evenings talking to strangers. She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely. “They will talk your ear off. Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath,” I said. My attitude didn’t stop my mother’s enthusiasm for the project. That evening, she settled on the sofa and dialed. When she finished the call, I said, “Why do you care whether she had cookies or rice pudding for dessert?” My mother grasped one of my hands and said in a proud tune, “I’m the only person she talked to today.” It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement. Now, as my mother is nearing eighty, I find myself thinking about those nightly calls she used to make. I am often the only person who telephones my mother, and sometimes I’m the only person she speaks to all day. I ask her what she cooked for dinner, but mostly I just listen as she describes a walk she took, or how her dog Lucky stole foods from the refrigerator. I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty. 24. What is the mother’s purpose of calling the seniors? A. To know what they eat. B. To ask for some cookies and pudding. C. To relieve their loneliness. D. To teach them how to make dessert. 25. What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hurt your hearing B. Blame other’s behaviors C. Miss important information D. Speak all the time 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The author started to telephone seniors as her mother B. The author realized the value of her mother C. The author’s mother preferred to live alone D. The author’s mother still keeps connected with the seniors 27. What is the best title for the passage? A. Seniors blessing B. A new project C. Nightly calls, lifeline calls D. Call your parents often C Schools in the US and elsewhere are announcing bans on the recently released AI — powered ChatGPT out of fear that students could use the technology to complete their assignments. However, bans may be practically impossible given how difficult it is to detect when text is composed by ChatGPT. Is it instead time to rethink how students are taught and evaluated? Educators are starting to question what it means to assess student learning if an AI can write an essay or paper similar to, or even better than, a student would — and the teacher can’t tell the difference. Many teachers believe the time-honored learning tradition will be destroyed from the ground up by Chat GPT. The Los Angeles Unified School District in California first blocked the use of ChatGPT on networks and devices in December 2022. However, removing technology from the classroom can mean undesirable consequences, such as creating more obstacles for students with disabilities, says Trust. Additionally, restricting the use of ChatGPT on school networks and devices can’t stop students from using ChatGPT at home and in libraries. It is also unclear if anti-cheating software can reliably detect AI-assisted writing. OpenAI is working to develop a digital watermark that can help teachers and academics spot students who are using ChatGPT to write essays. Open AI’s attempts to watermark AI text, however, hit limits. Instead of worrying about how ChatGPT could enable cheating, educators should ask what motivates students to cheat in the first place and work on developing relationships of trust, says Jesse Stommel at the University of Denver in Colorado. “Talk to students really frankly about what ChatGPT’s capable of, what it’s not,” says Stommel. “Have students use it to write an essay about Jane Austen and gender dynamics, and then have them read that essay and peer review it and think about what ChatGPT gets right and wrong.” 28. What does the author suggest schools do? A. Adjust teaching and assessment. B. Meet different demands from students. C. Prohibit the use of ChatGPT in classrooms. D. Break with the traditional teaching method. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Dark future of ChatGPT. B. Educators’ worrying concern. C. Crisis of traditional learning. D. Difficulty in telling AI’s writing. 30. What is the author’s attitude toward OpenAI’s watermark technology? A. Amused. B. Hopeful. C. Shocked. D. Doubtful. 31. What can be inferred from Jesse Stommel? A. AI helps students tell right and wrong. B. Students should write about famous writers. C. Educators should guide students to use AI properly. D. The trust between teachers and students is hard to form. D Plastic is used to make a large number of products we use every day， such as drink and food containers，trash bags and grocery bags，cups and children's toys，and bottles for everything from mouthwash and shampoo to glass cleaner and dishwashing liquid. And that's not even counting all the plastic that goes into furniture， appliances， computers， and automobiles. As the use of plastic has increased over the years，it's become a large part of America's solid waste﹣growing from less than 1 percent in 1960 to more than 13 percent in 2017. As an example of how and why plastic waste is increasing， the International Bottled Water Association reports that the US consumed 9. 67 billion gallons of bottled water in 2017， compared to 9.1 billion gallons the year before. The United States is the world's leading consumer of bottled water. A good first step in reducing plastic waste is switching to a reusable water bottle. Recycling plastic reduces the amount of energy and resources （资源） needed to create plastic. Research shows that a bottle of water requires about 2，000 times as much energy to produce as the same amount of tap water. Recycling plastic products also keeps them out of landfills（垃圾填埋）and allows the plastic to be reused in making new products. Recycling 1 ton of plastic saves 7. 4 cubic yards of landfill space. And let's face it，a lot of plastic ends up directly in the environment，breaking down into tiny pieces ， polluting our soil and water. Today，80 percent of Americans have easy access to a plastic recycling program. A universal numbering system for plastic types makes it even easier. According to the American Plastics Council， more than 1，800 US businesses handle plastic waste. In addition， over 200，000 grocery stores now serve as recycling collection sites for plastic waste. 32. What message does the first paragraph mainly intend to convey？ A. Plastic products are quite common. B. Plastic is widely used in our daily life. C. What functions plastic has. D. Why humans make use of plastic. 33 According to paragraph 2， . A. plastic waste is on the rise in America B. Americans prefer bottled water to tap water C. plastic waste is the leading type of waste in America D. using reusable water bottles doesn't help reduce plastic waste 34. What benefit does recycling plastic mainly bring？ A. It helps cut down on pollution. B. It helps to make soil more rich. C. It makes plastic easily broken down. D. It produces new energy and resources. 35. What do the figures listed in the last paragraph suggest？ A. Americans suffer a lot from plastic waste. B. Americans are good at recycling plastic. C. Recycling plastic is convenient in the US. D. Recycling plastic brings great profits in the US. 第二节(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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many companies, including McDonald’s, are removing artificial (人工的) colors from their foods. ___36___ Colors send important signals about food, and companies are not going to stop using them. Cheese Check the packages of most cheeses, and there is likely an ingredient (成分) called annatto (胭脂红) listed. ___37___ The practice dates back to when cheesemakers in England removed the butterfat from milk to make butter. The leftover milk was whiter, so cheesemakers added annatto to create a golden coloring. Egg Yolks Many home cooks think darker egg yolks (蛋黄) are fresher or more nutritious. But the color may be the result of coloring products in chicken feed. ___38___ Darker yolks aren’t necessarily healthier. The belief that they are healthier is likely rooted in the area that yolks are darker when hens are fed a diet of fresh plants, which contain the pigments (色素). Salmon Bright pink flesh may signal freshness to shoppers eyeing salmon, which is why salmon may have been fed synthetic ataxanthin (虾青素). ___39___ For example, at Costco, tickets of farmed salmon are saying “Color added through feed.” “People used to get all the coloring all over their fingers. We now kind of laugh at that,” said Richard Matoian, director of a food trade association. ___40___ Americans, therefore, apparently are not entirely ready to say goodbye to the artificial colors in various kinds of food. Companies are expected to take new measures in response to customer demand. A. Without it, cheese would be off-white. B. But producers know the difference colors can make. C. It’s easy to change yolk colors by simply varying hen’s diet. D. But don’t expect your cheeseburgers to look much different. E. Yolk colors vary when chickens live in a different climates as well. F. Producers are asked to declare on tickets if artificial colors were used. G. Some companies even offer various shades of pink to help judge fresh colors. 三、完形填空(本题含15小题，每题1分，共15分。) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A，B，C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) My three children and I were on our way to get their hair cut for the holidays.

It was going to be her first time on an airplane. When she walked down the narrow aisle (走廊、过道) of the plane to find her seat, a tall flight attendant (服务人员) smiled at her and asked where they were going. “Walt Disney World,” Anika said with a smile, “We’ll be there for a week.” “Have a wonderful trip,” replied the flight attendant, pointing to her name tag (名签), “I’m Leanne. You let me know if you and your pretty doll friend need anything.” “Thanks. I’m Anika, and this is Pansy,” said Anika, holding the doll up to show her, “Do you fly to Disney World every day?” Leanne shook her head. “I get to fly all over the world. It can be fun to explore new places.” The flight was going to be a few hours. Anika read a book with Pansy and did some puzzles her mother had packed for the trip. Soon she was getting a little tired and asked Leanne for a pillow (枕头). The flight attendant returned with a pillow a blanket, and a sleep mask to cover her eyes. Anika tucked Pansy under the blanket with her and fell asleep quickly. In no time, it seemed, she was being woken up again because it was time to land. They had arrived! “Already?” yawned (打哈欠) Anika. She wasn’t quite awake yet. Her parents were busily packing up their bags and jackets, ready to leave the plane. Leanne walked past them, collecting the pillows and blankets from passengers as she went. “Now you will have lots of energy to enjoy your visit to Disney World!” She smiled to Anika. “I will see you next week on your return flight home.” Anika was delighted to be in the new city. When her family got to the hotel, she couldn’t wait to bring Pansy along to see all the amazing sights with her. She looked around, but she couldn’t find her doll. She searched through the bags and jackets, but Pansy was nowhere to be found. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hugging Pansy tight again, Anika felt even more excited than she was on vacation last week. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 哈田中(哈73中)2023-2024学年度下学期 高二学年期中考试 英语 考试时间：120分钟 卷面分值：150分 注意事项： 1．答题前，务必将自己的姓名、考号填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 2．答选择题时，必须使用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。 3．答非选择题时，必须将答案书写在专设答题页规定的位置上。 4．所有题目必须在答题卡上作答．在试题卷上答题无效。 5．考试结束后，只交试卷答题页。 第Ⅰ卷 选择题(共95分) 一、听力(本题含20小题，每题1.5分，共30分。) 第一节： 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】 Where is the woman’ s hometown?

One afternoon, they were playing in the street just outside the post office. Yan, who is only five years old, found the perfect place to hide. His sister Janet had shut her eyes and was counting up to ten. When Ian noticed that the small metal door of the letter box had been left open. The postman had just taken all the letters out and had gone into the post office to see if there were any parcels. He in climbed into the letter box and pulled the door from the inside so hard that it locked. Soon realizing what he had done he became very frightened and started crying. Meanwhile Janet was looking for him everywhere but could not find him. It was lucky she happened to stop outside the letter box and heard her brother’s cries she immediately ran to tell the postman who hurried out to unlock the metal door. Hen was now free but he had had such a bad fright that he could not stop crying the postman however soon found a way of making him laugh again. He told him that next time he wanted to hide in a letter box he should remember to stick a stamp on himself. 二、阅读理解(第一节 本题含15小题，每题2.5分，共37.5分。) A The best museums in the UK for families Thackray Museum of Medicine, Leeds This museum is a brilliant way of highlighting to your children how fortunate they are to have access to medical supplies such as medication and vaccines.

Sometimes she knitted hats for babies, and at other times, she cooked chicken soup for sick neighbors. Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project. “I am going to telephone seniors,” said my mother. “Every night? But you don’t even know these people.” “It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.” I was sixteen years old and couldn’t understand why my mother was willing to spend her evenings talking to strangers. She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely. “They will talk your ear off. Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath,” I said. My attitude didn’t stop my mother’s enthusiasm for the project. That evening, she settled on the sofa and dialed. When she finished the call, I said, “Why do you care whether she had cookies or rice pudding for dessert?” My mother grasped one of my hands and said in a proud tune, “I’m the only person she talked to today.” It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement. Now, as my mother is nearing eighty, I find myself thinking about those nightly calls she used to make. I am often the only person who telephones my mother, and sometimes I’m the only person she speaks to all day. I ask her what she cooked for dinner, but mostly I just listen as she describes a walk she took, or how her dog Lucky stole foods from the refrigerator. I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty. 24. What is the mother’s purpose of calling the seniors? A. To know what they eat. B. To ask for some cookies and pudding. C. To relieve their loneliness. D. To teach them how to make dessert. 25 What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hurt your hearing B. Blame other’s behaviors C. Miss important information D. Speak all the time 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The author started to telephone seniors as her mother B. The author realized the value of her mother C. The author’s mother preferred to live alone D. The author’s mother still keeps connected with the seniors 27. What is the best title for the passage? A. Seniors blessing B. A new project C. Nightly calls, lifeline calls D. Call your parents often 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是作者妈妈热心地给陌生老人打电话，作者从不理解到最后理解，作者意识到了妈妈的这一行为给无数居家老人的孤独生活带来了慰藉。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中““It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.”(她说道：“没关系，重要的是我在听”)”和最后一段的“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到，母亲的电话是生命线，确保居家老人与世界保持联系。没有她，他们的世界将是空虚的。)”可知，妈妈给老人打电话的目的是缓解他们的孤独感。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段划线句子后的一句“Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath(有些人都不会停下来喘口气)”可知，妈妈的朋友以及作者的两个姐妹会一直讲话，故划线短语“talk your ear off”意为“一直讲话”。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到，母亲的电话是生命线，确保居家老人与世界保持联系。没有她，他们的世界将是空虚的。)”可知，作者最终意识到了妈妈的努力是有价值的。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段的“It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement. Now, as my mother is nearing eighty, I find myself thinking about those nightly calls she used to make.(我花了三十多年的时间才完全理解这句话的含义。如今，我的母亲年近八十，我发现自己想起了她过去每晚打的那些电话。)”和“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world.(我意识到，母亲的电话是生命线，确保居家老人与世界保持联系。)”可知，文章主要讲述了妈妈利用晚上的时间给老年人打的电话以及这些电话对老年人的意义，故C项“Nightly calls, lifeline calls(晚间电话，生命的电话)”可作为文章标题，故选C。 C Schools in the US and elsewhere are announcing bans on the recently released AI — powered ChatGPT out of fear that students could use the technology to complete their assignments. However, bans may be practically impossible given how difficult it is to detect when text is composed by ChatGPT. Is it instead time to rethink how students are taught and evaluated? Educators are starting to question what it means to assess student learning if an AI can write an essay or paper similar to, or even better than, a student would — and the teacher can’t tell the difference. Many teachers believe the time-honored learning tradition will be destroyed from the ground up by Chat GPT. The Los Angeles Unified School District in California first blocked the use of ChatGPT on networks and devices in December 2022. However, removing technology from the classroom can mean undesirable consequences, such as creating more obstacles for students with disabilities, says Trust. Additionally, restricting the use of ChatGPT on school networks and devices can’t stop students from using ChatGPT at home and in libraries. It is also unclear if anti-cheating software can reliably detect AI-assisted writing. OpenAI is working to develop a digital watermark that can help teachers and academics spot students who are using ChatGPT to write essays. Open AI’s attempts to watermark AI text, however, hit limits. Instead of worrying about how ChatGPT could enable cheating, educators should ask what motivates students to cheat in the first place and work on developing relationships of trust, says Jesse Stommel at the University of Denver in Colorado. “Talk to students really frankly about what ChatGPT’s capable of, what it’s not,” says Stommel. “Have students use it to write an essay about Jane Austen and gender dynamics, and then have them read that essay and peer review it and think about what ChatGPT gets right and wrong.” 28. What does the author suggest schools do? A. Adjust teaching and assessment. B. Meet different demands from students. C. Prohibit the use of ChatGPT in classrooms. D. Break with the traditional teaching method. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Dark future of ChatGPT. B. Educators’ worrying concern. C. Crisis of traditional learning. D. Difficulty in telling AI’s writing. 30. What is the author’s attitude toward OpenAI’s watermark technology? A. Amused. B. Hopeful. C. Shocked. D. Doubtful. 31. What can be inferred from Jesse Stommel? A. AI helps students tell right and wrong. B. Students should write about famous writers. C. Educators should guide students to use AI properly. D. The trust between teachers and students is hard to form. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要分析了当前美国很多学校宣布禁止最近发布的人工智能驱动的ChatGPT的原因以及人们对这一问题引发的讨论。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“However, bans may be practically impossible given how difficult it is to detect when text is composed by ChatGPT. Is it instead time to rethink how students are taught and evaluated?(但是，鉴于检测文本何时由 ChatGPT 组成是多么困难，因此实际上不可能禁止。现在是时候重新思考如何教授和评估学生了吗？)”可知，作者认为推行禁令实际上不太可能，所以用问句的形式提议，到了该重新调整教学和评估的时候了。故选A项。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“Educators are starting to question what it means to assess student learning if an AI can write an essay or paper similar to, or even better than, a student would — and the teacher can’t tell the difference. Many teachers believe the time-honored learning tradition will be destroyed from the ground up by Chat GPT.(教育工作者开始质疑，如果人工智能可以写出与学生相似甚至更好的论文或论文，那么评估学生的学习意味着什么——而老师无法分辨出其中的区别。许多教师认为，历史悠久的学习传统将被聊天GPT从头开始摧毁。)”可知，教育者开始质疑，如果老师分不清是AI还是学生写的作文时，评估学生学习情况的意义，且ChatGPT也完全摧毁这种历史悠久的学习传统，由此可知，该段主要讲的是教育者的担忧。故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“OpenAI is working to develop a digital watermark that can help teachers and academics spot students who are using ChatGPT to write essays. OpenAI’s attempts to watermark AI text, however, hit limits.(OpenAI正在努力开发一种数字水印，可以帮助教师和学者发现使用ChatGPT撰写论文的学生。然而，OpenAI为AI文本加水印的尝试达到了极限。)”可知，OpenAI正致力于开发一种数字水印，帮助教师和学者发现使用ChatGPT写论文的学生，但作者认为水印处理技术的尝试有限，由此可推断，作者对OpenAI的水印技术持怀疑态度。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的““Talk to students really frankly about what ChatGPT’s capable of, what it’s not,” says Stommel. “Have students use it to write an essay about Jane Austen and gender dynamics, and then have them read that essay and peer review it and think about what ChatGPT gets right and wrong.”(斯托梅尔说：“坦率地和学生们谈谈ChatGPT能做什么，不能做什么。”“让学生用它来写一篇关于简·奥斯汀和性别动态的文章，然后让他们阅读这篇文章，并进行同行评审，思考ChatGPT在哪些方面是对的，哪些是错的。”)”可知，Stommel建议教育者与学生开诚布公的谈谈ChatGPT，然后让他们使用ChatGPT写一篇文章，然后对ChatGPT的文章进行评论，由此可推断Stommel建议教育者正确引导学生使用ChatGPT。故选C项。 D Plastic is used to make a large number of products we use every day， such as drink and food containers，trash bags and grocery bags，cups and children's toys，and bottles for everything from mouthwash and shampoo to glass cleaner and dishwashing liquid. And that's not even counting all the plastic that goes into furniture， appliances， computers， and automobiles. As the use of plastic has increased over the years，it's become a large part of America's solid waste﹣growing from less than 1 percent in 1960 to more than 13 percent in 2017. As an example of how and why plastic waste is increasing， the International Bottled Water Association reports that the US consumed 9. 67 billion gallons of bottled water in 2017， compared to 9.1 billion gallons the year before. The United States is the world's leading consumer of bottled water. A good first step in reducing plastic waste is switching to a reusable water bottle. Recycling plastic reduces the amount of energy and resources （资源） needed to create plastic. Research shows that a bottle of water requires about 2，000 times as much energy to produce as the same amount of tap water. Recycling plastic products also keeps them out of landfills（垃圾填埋）and allows the plastic to be reused in making new products. Recycling 1 ton of plastic saves 7. 4 cubic yards of landfill space. And let's face it，a lot of plastic ends up directly in the environment，breaking down into tiny pieces ， polluting our soil and water. Today，80 percent of Americans have easy access to a plastic recycling program. A universal numbering system for plastic types makes it even easier. According to the American Plastics Council， more than 1，800 US businesses handle plastic waste. In addition， over 200，000 grocery stores now serve as recycling collection sites for plastic waste. 32. What message does the first paragraph mainly intend to convey？ A. Plastic products are quite common. B. Plastic is widely used in our daily life. C. What functions plastic has. D. Why humans make use of plastic. 33. According to paragraph 2， . A. plastic waste is on the rise in America B. Americans prefer bottled water to tap water C. plastic waste is the leading type of waste in America D. using reusable water bottles doesn't help reduce plastic waste 34. What benefit does recycling plastic mainly bring？ A. It helps cut down on pollution. B. It helps to make soil more rich. C. It makes plastic easily broken down. D. It produces new energy and resources. 35. What do the figures listed in the last paragraph suggest？ A. Americans suffer a lot from plastic waste. B. Americans are good at recycling plastic. C. Recycling plastic is convenient in the US. D. Recycling plastic brings great profits in the US. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。塑料在日常生活中使用广泛，塑料制品随处可见，回收利用塑料有哪些好处呢？ 【32题详解】 推理判断题。通读第一段，尤其是"Plastic is used to make a large number of products we use every day，"可推断，作者写第一段主要是为了说明塑料在我们的日常生活中使用广泛。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段"As an example of how and why plastic waste is increasing， the International Bottled Water Association reports that the US consumed 9．67 billion gallons of bottled water in 2017，compared to 9． 1 billion gallons the year before． "可知，塑料垃圾在美国呈增长趋势。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段"A Recycling 1 ton of plastic saves 7. 4 cubic yards of landfill space. And let's face it，a lot of plastic ends up directly in the environment，breaking down into tiny pieces ， polluting our soil and water.． ''可推断，塑料在降解过程中会污染土壤和水，因此，回收塑料有助于减少污染。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，百分之八十的美国人很容易使用塑料回收项目，一千八百多家美国企 业在处理塑料垃圾，二十多万个杂货店是塑料垃圾回收点。由此可推断，最后一段的数字表明回收塑料在美国很方便。故选C。 第二节(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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many companies, including McDonald’s, are removing artificial (人工的) colors from their foods. ___36___ Colors send important signals about food, and companies are not going to stop using them. Cheese Check the packages of most cheeses, and there is likely an ingredient (成分) called annatto (胭脂红) listed. ___37___ The practice dates back to when cheesemakers in England removed the butterfat from milk to make butter. The leftover milk was whiter, so cheesemakers added annatto to create a golden coloring. Egg Yolks Many home cooks think darker egg yolks (蛋黄) are fresher or more nutritious. But the color may be the result of coloring products in chicken feed. ___38___ Darker yolks aren’t necessarily healthier. The belief that they are healthier is likely rooted in the area that yolks are darker when hens are fed a diet of fresh plants, which contain the pigments (色素). Salmon Bright pink flesh may signal freshness to shoppers eyeing salmon, which is why salmon may have been fed synthetic ataxanthin (虾青素). ___39___ For example, at Costco, tickets of farmed salmon are saying “Color added through feed.” “People used to get all the coloring all over their fingers. We now kind of laugh at that,” said Richard Matoian, director of a food trade association. ___40___ Americans, therefore, apparently are not entirely ready to say goodbye to the artificial colors in various kinds of food. Companies are expected to take new measures in response to customer demand. A. Without it, cheese would be off-white. B. But producers know the difference colors can make. C. It’s easy to change yolk colors by simply varying hen’s diet. D. But don’t expect your cheeseburgers to look much different. E. Yolk colors vary when chickens live in a different climates as well. F. Producers are asked to declare on tickets if artificial colors were used. G. Some companies even offer various shades of pink to help judge fresh colors. 【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是食品中人工色素的使用情况及其影响。 【36题详解】 空前“Many companies, including McDonald’s, are removing artificial (人工的) colors from their foods.(包括麦当劳在内的许多公司正在从他们的食品中去除人工色素。)”说明许多公司正在从他们的食品中去除人工色素，空后“Colors send important signals about food, and companies are not going to stop using them.(颜色传递了关于食物的重要信号，公司不会停止使用它们。)”说明了公司不会停止使用色素，由此可知，食品较以前不会有什么变化，D选项“But don’t expect your cheeseburgers to look much different.(但是不要期望你的芝士汉堡看起来有很大的不同。)”说明食品不会和以前不同，因此承上启下，符合语境，故选D。 【37题详解】 空前“Check the packages of most cheeses, and there is likely an ingredient (成分) called annatto (胭脂红)listed.(查一下大多数奶酪的包装，上面可能会列出一种叫做胭脂红的成分。)”说明了奶酪里会有胭脂红，空格处应该说这种色素的作用，A选项“Without it, cheese would be off-white.(没有它，奶酪就会变成灰白色。)”中的it指代的是前面的annatto，cheese和前面的cheese相一致，说明了胭脂红的重要作用，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选A。 【38题详解】 空前“But the color may be the result of coloring products in chicken feed.(但颜色可能是鸡饲料中着色产品造成的。)”说明了蛋黄的颜色可能是鸡饲料中的着色产品造成的，空格处应该和改变鸡的食物相关，C选项“It’s easy to change yolk colors by simply varying hen’s diet.(通过简单地改变母鸡的饮食，蛋黄的颜色很容易改变。)”说明了改变鸡的饮食，蛋黄的颜色就会改变，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选C。 【39题详解】 空后“For example, at Costco, tickets of farmed salmon are saying “Color added through feed.”(例如，在Costco，养殖三文鱼的标签上写着“颜色通过饲料添加”。)”举例说明有的商家在食物的标签上写清楚颜色是来自于哪里，F选项“Producers are asked to declare on tickets if artificial colors were used.(如果使用了人工色素，生产者需要在标签上声明。)”说明了生产者需要在标签上标出色素是来自于哪里的，引出下文的具体例子，因此符合语境，故选F。 【40题详解】 空后“Americans, therefore, apparently are not entirely ready to say goodbye to the artificial colors in various kinds of food.(因此，美国人显然还没有完全准备好告别各种食品中的人工色素。)”说明了美国人不准备放弃使用人工色素，由therefore可知，空格处应该说为什么美国人不准备放弃使用人工色素，B选项“But producers know the difference colors can make.(但生产者知道色素的重要性。)”说明生产者知道色素的重要性，和后文构成因果关系，因此符合语境，故选B。 三、完形填空(本题含15小题，每题1分，共15分。) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A，B，C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) My three children and I were on our way to get their hair cut for the holidays.

It was going to be her first time on an airplane. When she walked down the narrow aisle (走廊、过道) of the plane to find her seat, a tall flight attendant (服务人员) smiled at her and asked where they were going. “Walt Disney World,” Anika said with a smile, “We’ll be there for a week.” “Have a wonderful trip,” replied the flight attendant, pointing to her name tag (名签), “I’m Leanne. You let me know if you and your pretty doll friend need anything.” “Thanks. I’m Anika, and this is Pansy,” said Anika, holding the doll up to show her, “Do you fly to Disney World every day?” Leanne shook her head “I get to fly all over the world. It can be fun to explore new places.” The flight was going to be a few hours. Anika read a book with Pansy and did some puzzles her mother had packed for the trip. Soon she was getting a little tired and asked Leanne for a pillow (枕头). The flight attendant returned with a pillow, a blanket, and a sleep mask to cover her eyes. Anika tucked Pansy under the blanket with her and fell asleep quickly. In no time, it seemed, she was being woken up again because it was time to land. They had arrived! “Already?” yawned (打哈欠) Anika. She wasn’t quite awake yet. Her parents were busily packing up their bags and jackets, ready to leave the plane. Leanne walked past them, collecting the pillows and blankets from passengers as she went. “Now you will have lots of energy to enjoy your visit to Disney World!” She smiled to Anika. “I will see you next week on your return flight home.” Anika was delighted to be in the new city. When her family got to the hotel, she couldn’t wait to bring Pansy along to see all the amazing sights with her. She looked around, but she couldn’t find her doll. She searched through the bags and jackets, but Pansy was nowhere to be found. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hugging Pansy tight again, Anika felt even more excited than she was on vacation last week. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: She searched through the bags and jackets, but Pansy was nowhere to be found. On thinking Pansy might have been left behind along the way, Anika burst into tears. Seeing this, her parents comforted that Pansy might turn up somewhere when they visited Disney World. There seemed to be no better choice after all. Anika went to Disney World, enjoying all the fantastic views, but when she boarded the flight back a week later, she was missing Pansy in her deep heart. It is when she walked down the narrow aisle that she saw Leanne smiling, reaching a doll to her. That was Pansy! Hugging Pansy tight again, Anika felt even more excited than she was on vacation last week. Leanne told Anika she found Pansy in the blanket and took Pansy to fly around the world along with her. “She visited many beautiful places and couldn’t wait to tell you all that she saw.” Leanne gently patted Anika’s hair, “but never leave her alone again, for she is missing you so much.” Grateful and happy, Anika nodded, “Thank you for giving Pansy such a good trip.” and she thought to herself that she would take all her trips with Pansy in the future. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公安妮卡在一次坐飞机的旅途中丢失了自己心爱的玩具娃娃，后来在空姐琳恩的帮助下，成功地找到娃娃的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她翻遍了所有的包和夹克，但哪儿也找不到潘西。”可知，第一段可描写安妮卡找不到潘西后的心理变化的经过。。 ②由第二段首句内容“安妮卡再次紧紧地拥抱着潘西，她感到比上周度假时更加兴奋。”可知，第二段可描写潘西是如何被找到的过程。。 2.续写线索：找不到潘西——安妮卡哭了起来——父母安慰——琳恩带给她一个娃娃——潘西被发现的过程——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①出现：turn up / appear / come out ②.走过，经过：walked down / passed by ③.告诉：tell / inform / let know 情绪类 ①.精彩的：fantastic /wonderful/ splendid ②.高兴的：happy /glad/joyful 【点睛】[高分句型1].
