Introducing the NDS (Ninja Double Stack) XL Air Fryer. This double air fryer towers above the rest, with 2 vertical stacked drawers (纵向堆叠抽屉) that do not need as much space on your worktop as traditional side-by-side 2-drawer air fryers. Now — you can mix and match 6 cooking functions, cooking times and temperatures across 2 individually-controlled drawers, and have all your food ready at the same time — even in smaller kitchen spaces! Already rated the full five stars by users, the air frying device is 30% slimmer compared to other Air Fryer. It might look small in size, but it can be really useful when it comes to mealtime. It can cook four layers of food — thanks to the two large drawers. As most of the air fryers, it also has six incredible functions to help cook food exactly as you like it — air fry, crisp, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate (脱水)— making it one of the most diverse appliances (电器) in your kitchen. Rally, one five star rater said, “this is perfect if you’re short of worktop space. It replaces my 9-in-1 air fryer and has the same quality.” Rose described it as the “best in the market,” and added, “love absolutely everything about this model. I’m pleased I waited for the double stack as it takes up less space. I’d highly recommend it.” 1. Which of the following is the biggest advantage of NDS XL Air Fryer? A. It’s much cheaper. B. It’s more energy efficient. C. It’s more space-saving. D. It’s more convenient to operate. 2. What can the two drawers of NDS XL Air Fryer do? A. Carry out diverse tasks. B. Change the cooking steps. C. Keep up stable temperature. D. Replace the 9-in-1 air fryer. 3. Why are Rally and Rose mentioned in the last two paragraphs? A. To attract more consumers. B. To list two examples. C. To provide some suggestions. D. To introduce two characters. B Suzanne Heywood was just seven years old when her parents told her she, along with her younger brother Jonathan, would be pulled out of school to go on a three-year voyage around the world. The family of four from the UK set out on their exploration to recreate Captain Cook’s voyage around the globe, which ended up taking a decade instead of the promised three years. Now 55 years old, Suzanne has shared her tale of survival on TikTok, and recalled her 10 years at sea in her tell-all memoir (回忆录) Wave Walker. “I spent that time trapped on a boat, unable to go to school or have normal friendships.” Despite her father assuring her the trip would be safe, Suzanne claimed it was “incredibly dangerous but great as well”, sharing details of a risky journey from South Africa to Australia where the boat hit an enormous storm. In order to get through her very strange childhood, Suzanne recalled how she was determined to get an education to live a normal life. “As it became clear my parents had no intention of going back, I decided I had to educate myself as it was the only lifeline that I had,” she told the hosts of The Morning Show. She began studying in the small cabin of the boat, which she found challenging both practically and academically, as she “had missed a lot of education”. Then, when she was 16, and her brother 15, her parents enrolled (注册) the two teenagers into a school in New Zealand while they continued sailing. Despite the gaps in her education, Suzanne landed a spot at Oxford University, and after saving up money she’ d earned working on a farm, Suzanne bought a one-way plane ticket back to the UK. Since going public with her story, Suzanne’s book instantly became a bestseller, and she continues to work through the trauma (创伤) caused by her “unstable” childhood. Suzanne’s extraordinary tale has captured the hearts of millions, with thousands of online fans applauding her for her bravery. 4. Why did Suzanne’s family set out their voyage? A. To meet the challenges of their life. B. To realize the dream of family traveling. C. To admire the beauty of great oceans. D. To follow in the footsteps of a great explorer. 5. What did education mean to Suzanne during the voyage? A. An approach to pleasing her parents. B. A tool for killing time on the vast sea. C. A means of struggling for a better future. D. A support of her admission into Oxford University. 6. What message does Suzanne’s experience convey? A. A strong will can free a person from family support. B. A lack of education can affect a person’s intelligence. C. A unique life can equip a person with special qualities. D. A crazy upbringing always leads to greater achievements. 7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To analyze the impact of family decisions and give warnings. B. To record Suzanne’s remarkable life journey and inspire others. C. To evaluate Suzanne’s educational achievements and praise her. D. To promote Suzanne’s memoir Wave Walker and excite readers. C Vaping (抽电子烟) damages young people’ s lungs as much as smoking, according to a research that has caused fresh debate over the health risks of e-cigarettes. The study compared vapers and smokers in an intense exercise test and found both groups less fit and much more out of breath than people who have neither habit. Dr. Azmy Faisal and colleagues at Manchester Metropolitan University asked 60 people in their 20s to have their lung capacity recorded. Twenty were non-smokers, 20 others had vaped for at least two years and the other 20 had smoked for at least two years. The test measured the maximum amount of physical exercise that someone could achieve, and found that the vapers had an average “peak exercise capacity”, which, at 186 watts, was similar to that of the smokers (182 watts) but much lower than that among the non-smokers (226 watts). In addition, the vapers and smokers were less able to take in oxygen — at 2.7 litres and 2.6 litres a minute respectively — than those who neither smoked nor vaped (3 litres). “The study adds to growing evidence that long-term use of vaping is detrimental and challenges the idea that vaping could be a healthier alternative to smoking”, said Faisal and his co-authors of the study. Medical researchers have also found evidence that vaping increases the risk of cancer, because it changes their DNA, and also that it may damage the brain and vital organs because e-cigarette aerosols (气溶胶) and liquids can contain traces of poisonous metals such as lead and uranium. Dr. Filippos Filippidis, Chairman of the ERS’s tobacco control committee, said, “Vapes are being sold cheaply and in a variety of flavours to appeal to young people.” Doctors and policymakers need to know about the risks of vaping and we should be doing all we can to help children and young people to avoid or quit vaping. 8. How is Faisal’s research conducted? A. By measuring oxygen intake in the blood. B. By recording exercise capacities at different ages. C. By comparing health conditions in different exercises. D. By analyzing lung capacities among different groups. 9. What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 6 probably mean? A Harmful. B. Mysterious. C. Unimportant. D. Unpredictable. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Vaping will soon be completely banned. B. More people will start vaping in the future. C. Health risks of vaping haven’t been understood by all. D. Strict rules will be made to regulate the price of vaping products. 11. What might be discussed in the following paragraph? A. The history and development of vaping products. B. The comparison between different e-cigarette brands. C. Specific measures to help young people to quit vaping. D. Different opinions of young people who vape regularly. D Negative news stories about social media platforms appear to be highly effective at pressuring companies into changing their policies. Katzenbach at the University of Bremen analyzed policy changes across Facebook, Twitter (now X) and YouTube between 2006 and 2024, as well as how media reporting from 26major English-language publications affected their policies. “There are significantly more changes in the policies by the platforms in the weeks and months after an increase of negative reporting,” says Katzenbach. For every negative story about a platform, the possibility of that platform changing its user policies increased by 6 per cent. To measure negative reporting, the researchers looked at the content of news stories using an AI model that classifies emotions. The AI had been trained on a dataset of 11,000 news stories about US politics. Facebook was the subject of the most negative reporting, with around 37 per cent of news stories from the 26 major English-language publications being seen as negative. Around 26 per cent of reporting about YouTube and Twitter was considered negative. The percentage of negative reporting about all platforms significantly increased after 2018, when accusing of the misuse of Facebook user data by the consulting firm Cambridge Analytica came to light. “We’ve seen that platforms do respond to public criticism,” says Katzenbach. For example, in 2014, a campaign called Free the Nipple pressured Facebook into allowing users to post photos of breastfeeding. However, those rules, and how they are enforced (强制实行), remain a topic of debate. Meta’s oversight board (监督委员会)told the platform to explain its policies in January 2024 following confusion over what did and didn’t break policy. Carolina at Northumbria University says a more active approach is needed to regulate social media platforms, including laws that check how policies affect users. “We’ re taking for granted that platforms are always going to run the system as they are — while we need to hold them far more responsible than that,”Katzenbach agrees with this view. “Definitely you need regulation, and strong regulation,” he says. “Media reporting cannot replace that.” 12. What’s the main focus of Katzenbach’s analysis of social media platforms? A. User behavior patterns on social media. B. Policy changes and media influence. C. Technological advancements of platforms. D. Advertising strategies on social media. 13. What caused a sharp increase in negative reporting after 2018? A. A new AI measurement system. B. The exposure of a data issue. C. The increased public criticism. D. The growth of social media users. 14. How does the author explain the platforms’ response to public criticism? A. By quoting official statements. B. By presenting statistical data. C. By conducting a public survey. D. By giving a specific example. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Social Media: Policy Shifts in the Media Focus B. Social Media: Advertising Trends and Their Impacts C. Social Media: User Reactions and Platform Responses D. Social Media: Technological Innovations and Challenges 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make Eye Contact Making eye contact can be tricky especially if you are shy, or nervous.

The once-happy little boy, who was already starting to pick up words of both English and Spanish, suddenly stopped speaking; stopped looking his family in the eye; stopped communicating altogether. Most of the time, all Sam did was lie on the sofa touching his ears. He started to display certain behavioral changes. He began to have this funny thing with straight lines where he would pick up a toy and look at it sideways, or lie on his front for hours on end, rolling a car in front of his eyes. Within two years, his mother Jo visited one expert after another with Sam and tried various treatment methods; however, nothing seemed to work. What was worse, in about three weeks Sam’s grandfather died of cancer, his parents divorced and his family were robbed — and all the while, Sam was becoming more and more withdrawn. His eyes were dead. And it was then that Sam was eventually diagnosed (诊断) with autism (自闭症). As a single mother, Jo had no choice but to go straight to work herself to earn a living while researching the condition and try her best to help Sam to come back out of himself. For Jo, the following eight years was a terrifying time, watching her son disappearing just in front of her eyes. All methods tried, money running out, Jo had no choice but to take Sam, by now completely non-verbal (不使用言语交际), from the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of the city to the calm of the Devon countryside. Once on a local farm, they came across Chester, a mini pig belonging to a farmer. It was so small that they didn’t even see it at first sight. As they walked down the grassland, the only little pig was hiding in the corner. He looked sad and lonely, like Sam often did. 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。 When Sam saw Chester, he went over to the little pig immediately. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The farmer agreed and Jo took Chester home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1- 5 CACBA 6-10 CBCCA 11-15 CBBAA 16-20 BACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 无锡市2024年秋学期高三期终教学质量调研测试 英语 注意事项及说明： 1. 试卷共150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答案一律写在答题卡上。考试结束时，上交答题卡。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有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.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了NDS XL Air Fryer(忍者双层空气炸锅)这一厨房电器。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This double air fryer towers above the rest, with 2 vertical stacked drawers (纵向堆叠抽屉) that do not need as much space on your worktop as traditional side-by-side 2-drawer air fryers.(这款双层空气炸锅高于其他产品，有两个纵向堆叠的抽屉，与传统并排放置的双抽屉空气炸锅相比，它在你的操作台上不需要那么多空间)”可知，NDS XL Air Fryer最大的优点是更节省空间。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“As most of the air fryers, it also has six incredible functions to help cook food exactly as you like it — air fry, crisp, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate (脱水) — making it one of the most diverse appliances (电器) in your kitchen.(和大多数空气炸锅一样，它也有六个令人难以置信的功能，可以帮助你按照自己喜欢的方式烹饪食物——空气炸、香脆、烘烤、烘焙、加热和脱水——使它成为你厨房里最多样化的电器之一)”可知，NDS XL Air Fryer的两个抽屉可以执行多种任务。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Rally, one five star rater said, ‘this is perfect if you’re short of worktop space. It replaces my 9-in-1 air fryer and has the same quality.’(Rally，一位五星评价者说：“如果你操作台空间不足，这简直是太完美了。它取代了我的9合一空气炸锅，而且质量一样。”)”和最后一段“Rose described it as the ‘best in the market,’ and added, ‘love absolutely everything about this model. I’m pleased I waited for the double stack as it takes up less space.

The family of four from the UK set out on their exploration to recreate Captain Cook’s voyage around the globe, which ended up taking a decade instead of the promised three years. Now 55 years old, Suzanne has shared her tale of survival on TikTok, and recalled her 10 years at sea in her tell-all memoir (回忆录) Wave Walker. “I spent that time trapped on a boat, unable to go to school or have normal friendships.” Despite her father assuring her the trip would be safe, Suzanne claimed it was “incredibly dangerous but great as well”, sharing details of a risky journey from South Africa to Australia where the boat hit an enormous storm. In order to get through her very strange childhood, Suzanne recalled how she was determined to get an education to live a normal life. “As it became clear my parents had no intention of going back, I decided I had to educate myself as it was the only lifeline that I had,” she told the hosts of The Morning Show. She began studying in the small cabin of the boat, which she found challenging both practically and academically, as she “had missed a lot of education”. Then, when she was 16, and her brother 15, her parents enrolled (注册) the two teenagers into a school in New Zealand while they continued sailing. Despite the gaps in her education, Suzanne landed a spot at Oxford University, and after saving up money she’ d earned working on a farm, Suzanne bought a one-way plane ticket back to the UK. Since going public with her story, Suzanne’s book instantly became a bestseller, and she continues to work through the trauma (创伤) caused by her “unstable” childhood. Suzanne’s extraordinary tale has captured the hearts of millions, with thousands of online fans applauding her for her bravery. 4. Why did Suzanne’s family set out their voyage? A. To meet the challenges of their life. B. To realize the dream of family traveling. C. To admire the beauty of great oceans. D. To follow in the footsteps of a great explorer. 5. What did education mean to Suzanne during the voyage? A. An approach to pleasing her parents. B. A tool for killing time on the vast sea. C. A means of struggling for a better future. D. A support of her admission into Oxford University. 6. What message does Suzanne’s experience convey? A. A strong will can free a person from family support. B. A lack of education can affect a person’s intelligence. C. A unique life can equip a person with special qualities. D. A crazy upbringing always leads to greater achievements. 7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To analyze the impact of family decisions and give warnings. B. To record Suzanne’s remarkable life journey and inspire others. C. To evaluate Suzanne’s educational achievements and praise her. D. To promote Suzanne’s memoir Wave Walker and excite readers. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7.

The study compared vapers and smokers in an intense exercise test and found both groups less fit and much more out of breath than people who have neither habit. Dr. Azmy Faisal and colleagues at Manchester Metropolitan University asked 60 people in their 20s to have their lung capacity recorded. Twenty were non-smokers, 20 others had vaped for at least two years and the other 20 had smoked for at least two years. The test measured the maximum amount of physical exercise that someone could achieve, and found that the vapers had an average “peak exercise capacity”, which, at 186 watts, was similar to that of the smokers (182 watts) but much lower than that among the non-smokers (226 watts). In addition, the vapers and smokers were less able to take in oxygen — at 2.7 litres and 2.6 litres a minute respectively — than those who neither smoked nor vaped (3 litres). “The study adds to growing evidence that long-term use of vaping is detrimental and challenges the idea that vaping could be a healthier alternative to smoking”, said Faisal and his co-authors of the study. Medical researchers have also found evidence that vaping increases the risk of cancer, because it changes their DNA, and also that it may damage the brain and vital organs because e-cigarette aerosols (气溶胶) and liquids can contain traces of poisonous metals such as lead and uranium. Dr. Filippos Filippidis, Chairman of the ERS’s tobacco control committee, said, “Vapes are being sold cheaply and in a variety of flavours to appeal to young people.” Doctors and policymakers need to know about the risks of vaping and we should be doing all we can to help children and young people to avoid or quit vaping. 8. How is Faisal’s research conducted? A. By measuring oxygen intake in the blood. B. By recording exercise capacities at different ages. C. By comparing health conditions in different exercises. D. By analyzing lung capacities among different groups. 9. What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 6 probably mean? A. Harmful. B. Mysterious. C. Unimportant. D. Unpredictable. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Vaping will soon be completely banned. B. More people will start vaping in the future. C. Health risks of vaping haven’t been understood by all. D Strict rules will be made to regulate the price of vaping products. 11. What might be discussed in the following paragraph? A. The history and development of vaping products. B. The comparison between different e-cigarette brands. C. Specific measures to help young people to quit vaping. D. Different opinions of young people who vape regularly. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了一项研究表明，抽电子烟对年轻人肺部的损害程度与吸烟相当，引发了人们对电子烟健康风险的新一轮争论。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Dr. Azmy Faisal and colleagues at Manchester Metropolitan University asked 60 people in their 20s to have their lung capacity recorded. (曼彻斯特城市大学的Azmy Faisal博士和他的同事让60名20多岁的人记录他们的肺活量。)”和第四段“The test measured the maximum amount of physical exercise that someone could achieve, and found that the vapers had an average “peak exercise capacity”, which, at 186 watts, was similar to that of the smokers (182 watts) but much lower than that among the non-smokers (226 watts). (该测试测量了某人所能达到的最大运动量，并发现抽电子烟的人的平均“最大运动能力”为186瓦，与吸烟者(182瓦)相似，但远低于非吸烟者(226瓦)。)”可知，Faisal的研究是通过分析不同人群的肺活量来进行的。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句“‘The study adds to growing evidence that long-term use of vaping is detrimental and challenges the idea that vaping could be a healthier alternative to smoking’, said Faisal and his co-authors of the study. (Faisal和他的研究合著者说:‘这项研究为长期使用电子烟……这一日益增多的证据增添了内容，并挑战了电子烟可能是吸烟更健康替代品这一观点。’)”可知，Faisal和他的研究合著者的研究挑战了电子烟可能是吸烟更健康替代品这一观点即长期用电子烟是不健康的，由此画线词所在句提到的是研究为“电子烟有害”增添了证据。故画线词意思是“有害的”与A选项“Harmful.(有害的)”为同义词。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Doctors and policymakers need to know about the risks of vaping and we should be doing all we can to help children and young people to avoid or quit vaping. (医生和决策者需要了解电子烟的风险，我们应该尽我们所能帮助儿童和年轻人避免或戒除电子烟。)”可推知，不是所有人都了解电子烟的健康风险。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Doctors and policymakers need to know about the risks of vaping and we should be doing all we can to help children and young people to avoid or quit vaping. (医生和决策者需要了解电子烟的风险，我们应该尽我们所能帮助儿童和年轻人避免或戒除电子烟。)”可知，最后一段强调了医生和决策者需要了解电子烟的风险，并帮助年轻人避免或戒除电子烟，由此可推知，接下来可能会讨论帮助年轻人戒除电子烟的具体措施。故选C项。 D Negative news stories about social media platforms appear to be highly effective at pressuring companies into changing their policies. Katzenbach at the University of Bremen analyzed policy changes across Facebook, Twitter (now X) and YouTube between 2006 and 2024, as well as how media reporting from 26major English-language publications affected their policies. “There are significantly more changes in the policies by the platforms in the weeks and months after an increase of negative reporting,” says Katzenbach. For every negative story about a platform, the possibility of that platform changing its user policies increased by 6 per cent. To measure negative reporting, the researchers looked at the content of news stories using an AI model that classifies emotions. The AI had been trained on a dataset of 11,000 news stories about US politics. Facebook was the subject of the most negative reporting, with around 37 per cent of news stories from the 26 major English-language publications being seen as negative. Around 26 per cent of reporting about YouTube and Twitter was considered negative. The percentage of negative reporting about all platforms significantly increased after 2018, when accusing of the misuse of Facebook user data by the consulting firm Cambridge Analytica came to light. “We’ve seen that platforms do respond to public criticism,” says Katzenbach. For example, in 2014, a campaign called Free the Nipple pressured Facebook into allowing users to post photos of breastfeeding. However, those rules, and how they are enforced (强制实行), remain a topic of debate. Meta’s oversight board (监督委员会)told the platform to explain its policies in January 2024 following confusion over what did and didn’t break policy. Carolina at Northumbria University says a more active approach is needed to regulate social media platforms, including laws that check how policies affect users. “We’ re taking for granted that platforms are always going to run the system as they are — while we need to hold them far more responsible than that,”Katzenbach agrees with this view. “Definitely you need regulation, and strong regulation,” he says. “Media reporting cannot replace that.” 12. What’s the main focus of Katzenbach’s analysis of social media platforms? A. User behavior patterns on social media. B. Policy changes and media influence. C. Technological advancements of platforms. D. Advertising strategies on social media. 13. What caused a sharp increase in negative reporting after 2018? A. A new AI measurement system. B. The exposure of a data issue. C. The increased public criticism. D. The growth of social media users. 14. How does the author explain the platforms’ response to public criticism? A. By quoting official statements. B. By presenting statistical data. C. By conducting a public survey. D. By giving a specific example. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Social Media: Policy Shifts in the Media Focus B. Social Media: Advertising Trends and Their Impacts C. Social Media: User Reactions and Platform Responses D. Social Media: Technological Innovations and Challenges 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了社交媒体平台因负面新闻报道而政策改变的现象。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Katzenbach at the University of Bremen analyzed policy changes across Facebook, Twitter (now X) and YouTube between 2006 and 2024, as well as how media reporting from 26major English-language publications affected their policies. (Bremen大学的Katzenbach分析了2006年至2024年间Facebook、Twitter(现为X)和YouTube的政策变化，以及26家主要英语出版物的媒体报道如何影响它们的政策)”可知，Katzenbach对社交媒体平台的主要分析焦点是政策变化和媒体的影响。故选B项。 13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“The percentage of negative reporting about all platforms significantly increased after 2018, when accusing of the misuse of Facebook user data by the consulting firm Cambridge Analytica came to light.(2018年后，当咨询公司剑桥分析被指控滥用脸书用户数据的消息曝光后，所有平台的负面报道比例显著增加)”可知，2018年后负面报道激增的原因是数据问题的曝光。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“ For example, in 2014, a campaign called Free the Nipple pressured Facebook into allowing users to post photos of breastfeeding. However, those rules, and how they are enforced (强制实行), remain a topic of debate. (例如，2014年，一个名为“解放乳头”的活动迫使Facebook允许用户发布母乳喂养的照片。然而，这些规则，以及它们如何执行，仍然是一个有争议的话题)”可推知，作者通过举出一个具体的例子来解释平台对公众批评的反应。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Negative news stories about social media platforms appear to be highly effective at pressuring companies into changing their policies.(关于社交媒体平台的负面新闻报道似乎对施压公司改变政策非常有效。)”以及第三段中“The percentage of negative reporting about all platforms significantly increased after 2018, when accusing of the misuse of Facebook user data by the consulting firm Cambridge Analytica came to light.(2018年后，当咨询公司剑桥分析被指控滥用脸书用户数据的消息曝光后，所有平台的负面报道比例显著增加)”以及最后一段中“Carolina at Northumbria University says a more active approach is needed to regulate social media platforms, including laws that check how policies affect users. (Northumbria大学的Carolina表示，需要采取更积极的方式来监管社交媒体平台，包括制定法律来检查政策如何影响用户)”以及通读全文可知，文章介绍了社交媒体平台因负面新闻报道而政策改变的现象。负面报道数量在2018年后显著增加。尽管平台会对公众批评作出反应，但仍需更积极的监管措施，包括法律手段，以确保政策对用户的影响得到控制。由此可知，A选项“Social Media: Policy Shifts in the Media Focus(社交媒体：媒体关注下的政策转变)”最符合文章标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make Eye Contact Making eye contact can be tricky, especially if you are shy, or nervous.

The once-happy little boy, who was already starting to pick up words of both English and Spanish, suddenly stopped speaking; stopped looking his family in the eye; stopped communicating altogether. Most of the time, all Sam did was lie on the sofa touching his ears. He started to display certain behavioral changes. He began to have this funny thing with straight lines where he would pick up a toy and look at it sideways, or lie on his front for hours on end, rolling a car in front of his eyes. Within two years, his mother Jo visited one expert after another with Sam and tried various treatment methods; however, nothing seemed to work. What was worse, in about three weeks Sam’s grandfather died of cancer, his parents divorced and his family were robbed — and all the while, Sam was becoming more and more withdrawn. His eyes were dead. And it was then that Sam was eventually diagnosed (诊断) with autism (自闭症). As a single mother, Jo had no choice but to go straight to work herself to earn a living while researching the condition and try her best to help Sam to come back out of himself. For Jo, the following eight years was a terrifying time, watching her son disappearing just in front of her eyes. All methods tried, money running out, Jo had no choice but to take Sam, by now completely non-verbal (不使用言语交际的), from the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of the city to the calm of the Devon countryside. Once on a local farm, they came across Chester, a mini pig belonging to a farmer. It was so small that they didn’t even see it at first sight. As they walked down the grassland, the only little pig was hiding in the corner. He looked sad and lonely, like Sam often did. 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。 When Sam saw Chester, he went over to the little pig immediately. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The farmer agreed and Jo took Chester home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 When Sam saw Chester, he went over to the little pig immediately. Sam, who had been so isolated, reached out and gently touched the pig. Chester got closer to Sam in response, as if acknowledging a new friend. For the first time in years, Sam’s eyes lit up with a spark of curiosity and warmth. Jo watched in amazement and decided there and then to buy it. She approached the farmer and asked if they could buy the pig, hoping Chester might breathe vitality into Sam’s life. The farmer agreed and Jo took Chester home. Since then, Sam and Chester were like peas and carrots. Chester’s presence became a comfort to Sam’s lonely soul. He would often sit beside Chester, stroking its back. Jo noticed a gradual change in Sam — he began having more interactions with Chester and her. Apparently, the unique bond between Sam and Chester had a good effect on Sam’s other relationships, offering Jo hope that her son might slowly find his way back to the world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，本文讲述了小男孩山姆在两岁两个月大时突然变得沉默自闭，经过多方求医无果，且家庭遭遇变故后，他被确诊为自闭症。山姆的母亲乔在努力工作的同时，不懈研究自闭症并尝试各种方法帮助山姆。后来，在山姆与一只迷你小猪切斯特相遇并建立深厚友谊后，山姆的情况逐渐好转，开始与外界有更多的互动，这给乔带来了希望。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句“当山姆看到切斯特时，他立刻朝小猪走过去。”可知，第一段可描写山姆与小猪切斯特的初次互动以及乔决定买下切斯特的经过。 ②由第二段首句“农夫同意了，乔把切斯特带回了家。”可知，第二段可描写山姆与切斯特的亲密相处以及乔对此的感悟。 2.续写线索： 相遇——互动——决定买下——带回家——亲密相处——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①伸出：reach out/stretch out ②买下：buy/purchase ③开始：begin/start 情绪类 ①好奇：curiosity/interest/wonder ②安慰：comfort/ease/relief 【点睛】[高分句型1]She approached the farmer and asked if they could buy the pig, hoping Chester might breathe vitality into Sam’s life.（由if引导宾语从句以及现在分词作状语的结构） [高分句型2]Apparently, the unique bond between Sam and Chester had a good effect on Sam’s other relationships, offering Jo hope that her son might slowly find his way back to the world.（由现在分词作状语以及that引导宾语从句） 听力1- 5 CACBA 6-10 CBCCA 11-15 CBBAA 16-20 BACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
