B On her first day tutoring students from low-income families at an after-school program in New York City Alyssa Kapasi noticed how many kids were lining up for free sandwiches and fruit in the cafeteria. Many of these students don’t get enough to eat at home. So a school lunch or an after-school meal might be the most food they would get all day. Kapasi, who attends private school, was shocked. She was determined to help. “I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you don’t have to wait to be an adult to fix it.” says Kapasi. She and a group of friends are now putting their programming skills to work to create a mobile app called Food For Thought. Through the application, parents will be able to pay for their own children’s meal and will be presented with an option to donate 2-3 dollars to pay for a meal of another student. Other donors will also be able to donate money to help children get lunch in their community. One creative characteristic of the app is that the receivers of the contributions will be anonymous. To receive financial help, a family will need only a recommendation from a school administrator, and no one else has to know. “I want to make my platform an application that all users feel no shame in using.” says Kapasi. “It astonished us that in one of the wealthiest and most advanced countries in the world there are still communities that are going hungry. By giving parents an easy option, we encourage their giving and raise their awareness that there are students in their children’s school who are in need.” Kapasi says. She hopes to have the app ready to be used in New York City-based schools during the new school year. 4. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 1? A. Explain how shocked Kapasi was. B. Evaluate Kapasi’s experience as a volunteer. C. Tell how the idea for the app came to Kapasi. D. Describe how the after-school program went on. 5. What can the app be used to do? A Teach students to be independent. B. Improve students’ programming skills. C. Buy school lunches for children in need. D. Allow parents to keep in touch with their children. 6. Which of the following best explains “anonymous” underlined in Paragraph 3? A. Inspired. B. Selective. C. Certain. D. Unnamed. 7. What is Kapasi’s future plan? A. To use the app in some schools. B. To encourage students to donate. C. To get more parents to visit schools. D. To make parents aware of world hunger. C Sharing a room with a family member or a friend can be tough (困难), but it becomes especially difficult when you are sharing it with someone you hardly know. If you find yourself in a similar situation, do not despair. There are things you can do to help you cope with having a roommate, no matter who it may be. First of all, you have to remember that you get what you give. If you are nice to others, then others will be nice to you as well. You also need to set boundaries for yourself and for the other person. So before your new roommate moves in, talk to him. Set the rules early on and discuss your hopes. Remember that there are two things that make up any good relationship: belief and respect. The same thing applies to (适用于) having a roommate. You have to respect each other. So he has that new PS3 game that you have always wanted to try out? Ask permission first. If he says no, don’t ask him for it again. If he lets you borrow his stuff, take care of the item and treat it as if it were your own. Make sure that you return it in the same condition as when you borrowed it. To keep away from disagreements over who does the housework, clean as you go. For chores (杂务) that can be shared, you may want to divide it equally so that you don’t do all the housework. Take turns in washing the dishes. You may do it every other day or you may divide the task so that you only have to do it in the morning and your roommate will only have to do it at night. When it comes to food and grocery items, determine what can be shared. Don’t be too mean when it comes to sharing food. On the other hand, determine what you can share and what you can’t and be clear about it. The advantage of sharing food is that you can save on time and food preparation. 8. What is the passage mainly about? A. Why you need a roommate. B. How you drive a roommate you don’t like. C. What you do to find a roommate. D. How you can get along with your roommate. 9. What may the underlined word “boundaries” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Borders of two countries. B. Personal space. C. Public relations. D. Something shared by all roommates. 10. Good relationship among roommates lies in _____. A. money and gifts B. attraction and good words C. trust and respect D. threats and orders 11. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. There are always quarrels between roommates. B. Try to do all the chores by yourself. C. Share everything with your roommates. D. Try to do the chores by turns. D When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, "Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish." I remember being even more upset then, because I'm not a fish! I didn't know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does? As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow waters to deep waters because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don't have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them. When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, "We all need to think like salespeople." But it didn't completely make sense. My dad never once said, "If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman." What he said was, "… you have to think like a fish." Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters. 12. Why was the author upset in the fishing trips when he was nine? A. Because he could not catch a fish. B. Because his father was not patient with him. C. Because his father did not teach him fishing. D. Because he could not influence a fish as his father did. 13. What did the author's father really mean? A. To read about fish. B. To learn fishing by oneself. C. To understand what fish think. D. To study fishing in many ways. 14. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found___________. A. in deep waters on sunny days B. in deep waters on cloudy days C. in shallow waters under sunlight D. in shallow waters under waterside trees 15. After entering the business world, the author found________. A. it easy to think like a customer B. his father's fishing advice inspiring C. his first boss's sales idea reasonable D. it difficult to sell services to poor people 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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。 E A happy family life doesn’t happen by chance.

They were always challenging each other to see who was the better. If the competition had been restricted to schoolwork, Thomas might have been the victor. He learned his new words faster, he was quick to pick up on addition and subtraction(减法), and he could read aloud quite effortlessly — but education is a lot more than reading, spelling, and math. Daniel had great physical skills. He could run faster, climb higher up a tree, and throw a stone farther. When it came to designing and building a paper airplane, Thomas was quick and creative, but Daniel always seemed to fly his farther. Some days they would take the long walk home from school through the woods. There they would climb a big tree: to see who could first reach the top of it. Daniel always won and laughed at Thomas, Thomas felt hurt. One weekend, Thomas arrived at his grandpa’s, looking unhappy. “What’s wrong?” asked Grandpa kindly. “It’s Daniel,” said Thomas. “He is always better than me. He’ll get selected for the football team but I won’t. He beats me at everything I do.” Thomas’s grandpa said, “You see, I used to be a champion swimmer. In my experience, the best athletes have a few secrets that you never hear them talk about,” Thomas was eager to learn the secrets. He wanted to know what he could do to beat Daniel. “First,” began Grandpa, “the secret is to concentrate on your strengths. Know what they are and how to use them. Be aware of what you are not so good at, too, and make the choices as to whether you want to focus on those things less, or try to develop them.” “The second secret of top athletes,” continued his grandpa, “is that they train. Work hard toward your goal, and you will certainly make it.” “Finally,” said Grandpa, “top athletes talk about competing against themselves rather than others, or about improving their own personal best. What matters most then is your own satisfaction.” Grandpa’s words inspired Thomas. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A couple of weeks later, Thomas challenged Daniel to a tree-climbing match ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年新邵三中高二期中考试英语试卷 时量：120分钟 满分：150分 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。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.

Many of these students don’t get enough to eat at home. So a school lunch or an after-school meal might be the most food they would get all day. Kapasi, who attends private school, was shocked. She was determined to help. “I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you don’t have to wait to be an adult to fix it.” says Kapasi. She and a group of friends are now putting their programming skills to work to create a mobile app called Food For Thought. Through the application, parents will be able to pay for their own children’s meal and will be presented with an option to donate 2-3 dollars to pay for a meal of another student. Other donors will also be able to donate money to help children get lunch in their community. One creative characteristic of the app is that the receivers of the contributions will be anonymous. To receive financial help, a family will need only a recommendation from a school administrator, and no one else has to know. “I want to make my platform an application that all users feel no shame in using.” says Kapasi. “It astonished us that in one of the wealthiest and most advanced countries in the world there are still communities that are going hungry. By giving parents an easy option, we encourage their giving and raise their awareness that there are students in their children’s school who are in need.” Kapasi says. She hopes to have the app ready to be used in New York City-based schools during the new school year. 4. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 1? A. Explain how shocked Kapasi was. B. Evaluate Kapasi’s experience as a volunteer. C. Tell how the idea for the app came to Kapasi. D. Describe how the after-school program went on. 5. What can the app be used to do? A.

Which of the following best explains “anonymous” underlined in Paragraph 3? A. Inspired. B. Selective. C. Certain. D. Unnamed. 7. What is Kapasi’s future plan? A. To use the app in some schools. B. To encourage students to donate. C. To get more parents to visit schools. D. To make parents aware of world hunger. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Alyssa Kapasi通过编写应用帮助那些吃饭困难的学生的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Kapasi, who attends private school, was shocked. She was determined to help. (就读于私立学校的Kapasi对此感到震惊。她决心提供帮助)”可推知，第一段的作用主要在与说明Kapasi是如何想到要开发这个应用的。故选择C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Through the application, parents will be able to pay for their own children’s meal and will be presented with an option to donate 2-3 dollars to pay for a meal of another student．Other donors will also be able to donate money to help children get lunch in their community.(通过这款应用，家长将能够支付自己孩子的餐费，并可以选择捐赠2-3美元来支付另一名学生的餐费。其他捐赠者也可以捐款帮助孩子在社区吃午饭)”可知，这款应用能够为那些有需要的孩子购买午餐。故选择C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文的“To receive financial help, a family will need only a recommendation from a school administrator, and no one else has to know.(要获得经济帮助，一个家庭只需要学校管理人员的推荐，其他人都不必知道)”可知，这里说的是受助者是匿名的。由此可知，划线词anonymous与unnamed“无名的；未命名的”意思一致。故选择D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“She hopes to have the app ready to be used in New York City-based schools during the new school year.(她希望在新学年期间，该应用程序可以在纽约市的学校使用)”可知，Kapasi未来的计划是该应用程序能在学校使用。故选择A项。 C Sharing a room with a family member or a friend can be tough (困难), but it becomes especially difficult when you are sharing it with someone you hardly know. If you find yourself in a similar situation, do not despair. There are things you can do to help you cope with having a roommate, no matter who it may be.

You also need to set boundaries for yourself and for the other person. So before your new roommate moves in, talk to him. Set the rules early on and discuss your hopes. Remember that there are two things that make up any good relationship: belief and respect. The same thing applies to (适用于) having a roommate. You have to respect each other. So he has that new PS3 game that you have always wanted to try out? Ask permission first. If he says no, don’t ask him for it again. If he lets you borrow his stuff, take care of the item and treat it as if it were your own. Make sure that you return it in the same condition as when you borrowed it. To keep away from disagreements over who does the housework, clean as you go. For chores (杂务) that can be shared, you may want to divide it equally so that you don’t do all the housework. Take turns in washing the dishes. You may do it every other day or you may divide the task so that you only have to do it in the morning and your roommate will only have to do it at night. When it comes to food and grocery items, determine what can be shared. Don’t be too mean when it comes to sharing food. On the other hand, determine what you can share and what you can’t and be clear about it. The advantage of sharing food is that you can save on time and food preparation. 8. What is the passage mainly about? A. Why you need a roommate. B. How you drive a roommate you don’t like. C. What you do to find a roommate. D. How you can get along with your roommate. 9.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要针对如何与室友建立良好的关系给出建议。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“There are things you can do to help you cope with having a roommate, no matter who it may be.( 无论室友是谁，你都可以做一些事情来帮助你应对室友的问题。)”可知本文主要讲的是如何与室友相处的建议，故选择D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中下文“So before your new roommate moves in, talk to him. Set the rules early on and discuss your hopes.(所以，在你的新室友搬进来之前，和他谈谈。尽早制定规则并讨论你的期望。)”可知，这里说的是要给自己和他人留一些个人的空间，故选择B项。 【10题详解】 考查细节理解题。根据第三段中“Remember that there are two things that make up any good relationship: belief and respect. The same thing applies to(适用于) having a roommate.( 记住，任何好关系都有两样东西：信念和尊重。同样的事情也适用于有一个室友。)”可知，与室友之间良好的关系在于尊重和信任，故选择C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“ For chores (杂务)that can be shared, you may want to divide it equally so that you don’t do all the housework.( 至于杂务是可以分享的，你可能想平分，这样你就不会做所有的家务。)”可推测出，宿舍内的杂务可以轮流去做，故选择D项。 D When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, "Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish." I remember being even more upset then, because I'm not a fish! I didn't know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does? As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow waters to deep waters because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don't have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them. When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, "We all need to think like salespeople." But it didn't completely make sense. My dad never once said, "If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman." What he said was, "… you have to think like a fish." Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters. 12. Why was the author upset in the fishing trips when he was nine? A. Because he could not catch a fish. B. Because his father was not patient with him. C. Because his father did not teach him fishing. D. Because he could not influence a fish as his father did. 13. What did the author's father really mean? A. To read about fish. B. To learn fishing by oneself. C. To understand what fish think. D. To study fishing in many ways. 14. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found___________. A. in deep waters on sunny days B. in deep waters on cloudy days C. in shallow waters under sunlight D. in shallow waters under waterside trees 15. After entering the business world, the author found________. A. it easy to think like a customer B. his father's fishing advice inspiring C. his first boss's sales idea reasonable D. it difficult to sell services to poor people 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者钓鱼时，父亲教授他要像鱼一样思考，学会钓鱼的道理。作者以此来告诉读者从事商业销售时要像消费者一样去思考。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. (但唯一不太有趣的是，他可以钓到很多鱼，而我却什么也钓不到。我总是很生气，不停地问他为什么)”可知，作者9岁时去钓鱼感到难过，是因为他钓不到一条鱼。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The more I under-stood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.(我对鱼了解得越多，就越能有效地找到和捕获它们)”可推知，作者父亲的真正意思是要了解鱼的想法。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“That is why fish prefer shallow waters to deep waters because the former is warmer.(这就是为什么鱼类喜欢浅水而不喜欢深水的原因，因为浅水更温暖)”可知，鱼喜欢在浅水区，不喜欢在深水区，排除A、B两项；根据第二段中的“Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don't have any eyelids and the sun hurts their eyes. (此外，阳光直射下的水通常比阴凉处的水暖和。然而，鱼没有眼皮，阳光会伤害它们的眼睛)”可知，鱼喜欢在阴凉处，不喜欢在阳光直射的地方，排除C项；D项“in shallow waters under waterside trees(在水边树下的浅水区)”是鱼喜欢的地方，此处更有可能发现鱼。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“What he said was, “…you have to think like a fish.’’”(他说的是 “……你得像鱼一样思考。”)和“I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers.(我逐渐认识到，我们都需要像顾客一样思考)”可知，我逐渐了解到我们都需要更多地像客户一样思考。由此可知，进入商界后作者发现父亲的钓鱼思维对他很有启发。故选B。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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。 E A happy family life doesn’t happen by chance.

He or she doesn’t think much about her or his weaknesses but helps her or him overcome them.(互相尊重的夫妻从不责怪对方。他或她不会过多地考虑她或他的弱点，而是帮助她/他克服它们。)”可知，此处是指尊重会具有鼓励人心的力量，所以选项C“如果有尊重，就会有鼓励的话。”切合文意。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据前文“The one who is at fault should immediately ask for forgiveness and the other should choose to forgive.(有过错的一方应该立即请求原谅，而另一方应该选择原谅。)”可知，此处是讲学会原谅可以消解矛盾和过错带来的负面情绪，所以选项D“如果有宽恕，就不会有愤怒和误解。”切合文意。故选D。 【19题详解】 根据后文“If there is patience in the family, anger will be controlled and there will be peace and harmony.(如果家庭中有耐心，愤怒就会得到控制，就会有和平与和谐。)”可知，此处是讲创建快乐融洽的家庭氛围也需要耐心，所以选项E“保持耐心是很难的，尤其是对有婴儿或青少年的父母来说。”切合文意。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Small acts of service in a family make people’s hearts glad. Children learn simple acts of service by giving their parents a glass of water, and a couple serve each other by taking care of family members.(在一个家庭中，小小的服务行为会使人们的心感到高兴。孩子们通过给父母一杯水来学习简单的服务行为，夫妻通过照顾家庭成员来互相服务。)”可知，此处是讲家庭中的服务行为有利于营造好的家庭氛围，所以选项G“最好的服务总是在家里提供的。”切合文意。故选G。 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Once upon a time, there were two people living next to each other.

They were always challenging each other to see who was the better. If the competition had been restricted to schoolwork, Thomas might have been the victor. He learned his new words faster, he was quick to pick up on addition and subtraction(减法), and he could read aloud quite effortlessly — but education is a lot more than reading, spelling, and math. Daniel had great physical skills. He could run faster, climb higher up a tree, and throw a stone farther. When it came to designing and building a paper airplane, Thomas was quick and creative, but Daniel always seemed to fly his farther. Some days they would take the long walk home from school through the woods. There they would climb a big tree: to see who could first reach the top of it. Daniel always won and laughed at Thomas, Thomas felt hurt. One weekend, Thomas arrived at his grandpa’s, looking unhappy. “What’s wrong?” asked Grandpa kindly. “It’s Daniel,” said Thomas. “He is always better than me. He’ll get selected for the football team but I won’t. He beats me at everything I do.” Thomas’s grandpa said, “You see, I used to be a champion swimmer. In my experience, the best athletes have a few secrets that you never hear them talk about,” Thomas was eager to learn the secrets. He wanted to know what he could do to beat Daniel. “First,” began Grandpa, “the secret is to concentrate on your strengths. Know what they are and how to use them. Be aware of what you are not so good at, too, and make the choices as to whether you want to focus on those things less, or try to develop them.” “The second secret of top athletes,” continued his grandpa, “is that they train. Work hard toward your goal, and you will certainly make it.” “Finally,” said Grandpa, “top athletes talk about competing against themselves rather than others, or about improving their own personal best. What matters most then is your own satisfaction.” Grandpa’s words inspired Thomas. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A couple of weeks later, Thomas challenged Daniel to a tree-climbing match ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Grandpa’s words inspired Thomas. He determined to change. He focused on his strengths and trained hard. Thomas loved math and reading, so he spent more time on them. He also practiced his physical skills, but not to compete with Daniel. Instead, he wanted to improve his personal best. A couple of weeks later, Thomas challenged Daniel to a tree-climbing match.
