I’m Li Hua, an editor of our school’s English newspaper. I’m writing to invite you to contribute to our column, China in Your Eyes. This column aims to provide experiences and insights of foreign students studying in China, fostering a sense of cultural exchange and appreciation within our school community. Accordingly, for the article, we would like you to discuss various aspects such as academic life, Chinese cuisine or festival celebrations, or any unique encounters you have had here. The article is kindly requested to be approximately 500 words in length and you may include some photos to enhance the readers’ understanding. Please let us know if you’re interested. We eagerly anticipate receiving your article by February 24th. Yours, Li Hua 续写（One possible version） Over lunchtime, Emma was sitting at her usual table with her classmates when Kit walked over to them. She cheerfully asked to join them and sat beside Emma. Throughout lunch, there were glances and whispers about Kit's scar, but Kit didn't seem bothered and continued to chat normally. Emma was struck by Kit's indifference to the attention her scar drew. Sensing her curiosity, Kit openly discussed how she had come to accept her scar and the importance of resilience(适应力) in the face of external judgments. Her story deeply touched Emma, inspiring her to embrace her true self. On Friday, it was time for the frightening PE class, but this time, Kit was with her. “Ready to jog?” the teacher announced. Despite some stares from the popular kids, Emma felt encouraged by Kit.They ran together, and when laughter came from behind, Kit shouted, “Ignore them!" This helped Emma focus on running, not the jeers(嘲笑). At the finish, Emma, although physically tired, had gained newfound strength, discovering that true confidence comes from within, not from others’ words. Walking back under the sun, both girls felt proud－one with a scar and the other comfortable in her own body. 答案详解 阅读B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要介绍肿瘤学家Monica Bertagnolli为农村癌症患者能够获得医疗资源和医疗保健所作出的努力与贡献。 【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Growing up in Wyoming, she was well aware of the lack of health care resources in rural areas. Access to in-depth care for cancer patients is hard to get. She’s worked throughout her career to change that.(在Wyoming州长大的她非常清楚农村地区缺乏医疗资源。癌症患者很难获得深入的护理。她的整个职业生涯都在努力改变这种状况。)”可知在Wyoming州农村癌症患者最缺乏的是医疗资源和深入的医疗护理。故选B。 【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“And now Monica serves as the vice president of the Coalition (联盟) of Cancer Cooperative Groups (CCCG) — an international network of individuals who work to improve the quality of life and survival of cancer patients by increasing participation in cancer clinical trials.(现在，Monica担任癌症合作组织联盟（CCCG）的副主席。CCCG是一个由个人组成的国际网络，通过增加对癌症临床试验的参与来提高癌症患者的生活质量和生存率。)”以及第四段“She said, ‘One of the really important things is, we’re trying to make sure that cancer clinical trials can get to every single patient who needs them in my own state.’ The coalition set up sites in northern and southern Wyoming that are able to run clinical trials. Before those trials became available, patients would usually go to Denver or Salt Lake City — a three-to-seven-hour drive.(她说：‘真正重要的一件事是，我们正在努力确保癌症临床试验能够惠及我所在州每一位需要的患者。’该联盟在Wyoming州北部和南部设立了能够进行临床试验的站点。在这些试验开始之前，患者通常会去丹佛或盐湖城，车程三到七小时。)”可知，Monica通过提供临床试验来帮助癌症患者。故选D。 【26题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In addition to the clinical trials, Monica said that technology’s progress like better cell phone and internet service in the mountains of Wyoming, as well as social media, has helped rural residents stay in touch with loved ones and medical professionals despite their distance. She is trying to advocate strongly for those changes to continue.(除了临床试验之外，Monica说，技术的进步，比如Wyoming州山区更好的手机和互联网服务，以及社交媒体，已经帮助农村居民与亲人和医疗专业人员保持联系，尽管他们相隔遥远。她正在努力大力倡导这些改革继续下去。)”以及最后一段“‘I still consider myself part of Wyoming and I am very devoted to making sure that patients can get access to care.’(‘我仍然认为自己是Wyoming州的一员，我大力致力于确保患者能够获得医疗。’)”可知Monica非常敬业，富有责任心。故选C。 【27题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Monica Bertagnolli is an oncologist (肿瘤学家) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School. Growing up in Wyoming, she was well aware of the lack of health care resources in rural areas. Access to in-depth care for cancer patients is hard to get. She’s worked throughout her career to change that.( Monica Bertagnolli是布里格姆妇女医院的肿瘤学家，也是哈佛医学院的外科教授。在怀俄明州长大的她非常清楚农村地区缺乏医疗资源。癌症患者很难获得深入的护理。她的整个职业生涯都在努力改变这种状况。)”以及下文对Monica Bertagnolli的详细介绍可知，本文主要介绍了Monica为改变农村癌症患者缺乏医疗资源和医疗保健所作出的贡献，A选项“一位帮助癌症患者的人”能够概括文章主旨，适合作为本文标题。故选A。 阅读D 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了加拿大鱼类产品乱贴标签的原因和现状。 12. C 【解析】细节理解题。文章第二段谈到：鱼类产品通常要经过多个国家才能到达我们的餐桌。在此 过程中，鱼类产品可能被误认为是另一种鱼类产品，或者经销商故意重新命名以赚取更多利润，这就导致鱼类产品乱贴标签现象的产生。再结合第二段最后一局可知，要追踪鱼类产品非常困难。故选C。 13. D 【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段“In Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) maintains a Fish List that provides the acceptable common names for the labeling of fish. A seafood product was considered mislabeled if it was sold by using a name not found on the Fish List for the DNA-identified species.”可知，加拿大的《鱼类清单》有严格的鱼类命名规则。故选D。 14. A 【解析】词义猜测题。根据最后一段“that certain product names are more likely to hide species of conservation concern. The result: up to one in five fin-fish was not as advertised … companies in places like Miami and Mississippi have faced fines for such practices, the global nature of fisheries makes legal action difficult”可知，这里指：鱼类产品贴错标签的现象十分猖獗。故选A。 15. A 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“If you eat seafood, there is a chance that you could be misled as a consumer and end up eating threatened species. You can actually do something to reduce these possibilities.”可推知，作者接下来很有可能会讲避免被误导购买乱贴了标签的鱼类产品的方法。故选A。 完形填空 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。17岁的布雷迪·普罗康 (Brady Procon) 不顾危险，成功控制了在温尼珀索基湖上一艘失控的船只，消除了正在湖上学习航行的孩子的危险。 41. A 【解析】根据本空后文“to reach down to pick up a rapidly floating tennis ball”可知，他们的教练急于伸手去捡一个快速漂移的网球。故选A。 42. C 【解析】根据本空前文“Some children were learning to sail in the open water.”可知，这里指: 这个网球是教练用于教学的。故选C。 43. B 【解析】根据本空前文“accidentally fell into the water from his petrol-powered boat, leaving the boat running and springing”可知，这里指: 这艘船不受控制地在水中打转和弹起。故选B。 44. B 【解析】根据上文“leaving … the children scream-ing”可知，这里指：普罗康的父亲循声看去，发现有人落水了。故选B。 45. D 【解析】根据本空前文“My dad and I were talking by the shore. Looking in the direction of the 24 , my dad said, ’Someone is in the water! ’”可知，这里指：普罗康事后回忆当时的情况。故选D。 46. D 【解析】根据后文“Procon’s dad jumped on his boat and Procon 27 by jumping onto his jetski (水上摩托).”可知，这里指：普罗康和他父亲采取了行动。故选D。 47. A 【解析】根据本空前文“Procon’s dad jumped on his boat”以及本空后文“by jumping onto his jetski (水上摩托) ”可知，这里指普罗康跟随他的父亲采取行动。故选A。 48. B 【解析】前文谈到普罗康的父亲跳上了他的船，因此，这里指：他的父亲努力救助落水的教练。work to do sth. 意为“努力去做某事”。故选B。 49. C 【解析】根据本空后文“this allowed Procon to jump off his own jetski”可知，这里指: 陌生人加入到了普罗康的救援工作中。故选C。 50. D 【解析】根据本空后文“Once the two were able to get close enough”可知，这里指: 普罗康和陌生人组队救援。故选D。 51.

C 【解析】根据本空后文“he’d have been seriously hurt by the propeller (螺旋桨) ”可知，这里指: 如果普罗康没能跳上那艘船，螺旋桨可能会对他造成严重的伤害。miss在这里表示“未能到达”。故选C。 54. A 【解析】上文谈到：陌生人用自己的水上摩托带上普罗康，帮助普罗康成功落在了失控船上。这些说明陌生人是有帮助的。故选A。 55. D 【解析】整篇文章前后文均在谈普罗康不顾安危，最终控制了失控船只，避免了潜在的危险。因此，这里指：他当时没有考虑到救援给他带来的危险。故选D。 听力材料 Text 1 M: Excuse me. I’m sorry that these books were due yesterday. W: That’s OK.

Text 10 Good morning, children and parents. Welcome to the Children’s Club in our neighborhood. As the end of the school year is drawing near, we’ve prepared various gifts, such as stickers, books and pencils. To add more fun, we’ve hidden them for you to find around this center. Here’s the information you need to know. First of all, all children should put your names down at the desk, because you will be divided into several groups. Then, if you’re ready, preschool children will be going out of this front door and their parents should go together. Outside this door, you will see a flag as the marker for your area. There will be some helpers to direct you. If you are in the first to third grade, you’re going right outside that back door to search in the yard. The parents of this group are welcome to go with the children. Finally, the fourth graders, please, follow me down the hall through the double doors and to the other side of the center where you’ll be going to look for your gifts. There’s plenty for everyone. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 南昌二中2024-2025学年度上学期高二英语期末试卷 命题人： 帅悦 审题人：余璃明 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。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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Growing up in Wyoming, she was well aware of the lack of health care resources in rural areas. Access to in-depth care for cancer patients is hard to get. She’s worked throughout her career to change that. In Wyoming, there’s a great distance to travel between where people live and where they can find a cancer specialist. “If you need treatments and they have to be administered every day, and if it’s 120 miles from where you live, that ends up being a huge barrier to receiving the kind of care you need.” And now Monica serves as the vice president of the Coalition of Cancer Cooperative Groups (CCCG) — an international network of individuals who work to improve the quality of life and survival of cancer patients by increasing participation in cancer clinical trials. She said, “One of the really important things is, we’re trying to make sure that cancer clinical trials can get to every single patient who needs them in my own state.” The coalition set up sites in northern and southern Wyoming that are able to run clinical trials. Before those trials became available, patients would usually go to Denver or Salt Lake City — a three-to-seven-hour drive. Monica’s efforts to increase access to the health care needs of her rural Wyoming patients also include helping to develop new policies that will allow patients to participate in more clinical trials, and linking them with a regional doctor who can get them the access to the care they need. In addition to the clinical trials, Monica said that technology’s progress like better cell phone and internet service in the mountains of Wyoming, as well as social media, has helped rural residents stay in touch with loved ones and medical professionals despite their distance. She is trying to advocate strongly for those changes to continue. “I still consider myself part of Wyoming and I am very devoted to making sure that patients can get access to care.” 24. What do rural cancer patients in Wyoming need most? A. Better housing. B. Medical treatment. C. Further education. D. Public transportation. 25. How has Monica helped the cancer patients? A. By training medical professionals. B. By advocating financial aid. C. By improving internet service. D. By offering clinical trials. 26. Which of the following can best describe Monica? A. Determined and loyal. B. Honest and generous. C. Dedicated and responsible. D. Grateful and courageous. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. A helper for cancer patients B. A push for progress C. A pioneer for cancer treatment D. A hope for cancer patients C It’s Paris Fashion Week and the streets of the city are filled with designers, models and journalists. Among the crowds, eagle-eyed experts are taking careful notes. Their job is to detect emerging trends. Their notes will instantly be added to selected “trend forecasts”, which will be sold to designers, who will use them to inspire new pieces. Traditionally, these fashion forecasters have relied only on such methods to make predictions. But as artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have become increasingly powerful in the last decade, forecasting agencies are now turning to machine learning for help. This is all welcome news for an industry worth about $2 trillion globally. Forecasts can have a big influence on the fashion industry’s carbon footprint, which is responsible for at least 4% of all worldwide emissions. Designers will produce more of what will actually sell at the moment, 25% of fashion products are unsalable, or not sold. Besides, using AI tools that can analyze millions of posts from around the world allows designers to look at fashion trends more globally. But designers often feel insecure about relying just on the data provided by AI. “A few years ago, there were big indicators on social media of yellow being a trend,” says Francesca Muston, vice president of a trend forecasting company. “And if you had followed completely the social media data gathered by AI models, yellow pieces would seem to be a good investment. But how many people are really going to wear a bright yellow coat? That’s a brave fashion choice. “ AI tools don’t have their own aesthetic (审美的) viewpoint so they may not be able to satisfy people’s desire for newness. “That’s why we maintain a very strong creative viewpoint in our forecasting with a team of industry experts,” says Muston. Dr Michal Koren, a researcher, says, “The role of human experts in identifying trends will continue to be crucial even as AI and data-driven models become more accurate. “ 28. What is the purpose of the notes taken by the experts? A. To report the news about Paris Fashion Week. B. To compare different design methods. C. To help them make fashion predictions. D. To collect information about designers. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly discuss? A. The various benefits of using AI tools to predict trends. B. The high environmental costs of the fashion industry. C. The importance of looking at fashion more globally. D. The serious problem of unsalable fashion products. 30. Why does Muston mention the trend of yellow predicted a few years ago? A. To explain why people dislike some new trends. B. To show AI fashion predictions are not always reliable. C. To describe the recent changes in people’s fashion choices. D. To prove the key role of social media in fashion forecasting. 31. Which statement might both Muston and Koren agree with? A. Machine learning is more creative than human experts. B. AI tools will not replace human trend forecasters. C. It is possible for AI to have its own fashion sense. D. Many human trend forecasters will be unemployed. D Mislabeling is a worldwide issue, and it occurs when the species of fish you’re buying is not the one you actually receive. Fish products often pass through multiple countries before they finally reach our table. Along the way, products can be misidentified as another species or intentionally renamed to make more profit. For instance, a cheap fish like tilapia may be given the name of a more expensive fish, like red snapper, or an endangered species might be passed off as an alternative that is doing better in numbers. These make it extremely hard to monitor their logistics (物流) processes. To investigate this issue in Canada, we examined mislabeling market names in finfish products in Calgary between 2014 and 2020. We sampled 347 finfish products from Calgary restaurants. These samples were then genetically tested by using a species-specific marker called a DNA barcode. In Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) maintains a Fish List that provides the acceptable common names for the labeling of fish. A seafood product was considered mislabeled if it was sold by using a name not found on the Fish List for the DNA-identified species. For instance, there is only one species that can be sold under the name salmon : Atlantic salmon. If sockeye salmon was sold as salmon without any other qualifier, it was considered mislabeled. We’ve discovered that mislabeling runs rampant in Calgary and that certain product names are more likely to hide species of conservation concern. The result: up to one in five finfish was not as advertised. Several examples of mislabeling involved substituting an expensive product fora cheaper species: tilapia for snapper, rainbow trout for Atlantic salmon. While companies in places like Miami and Mississippi have faced fines for such practices, the global nature of fisheries makes legal action difficult. If you eat seafood, there is a chance that you could be misled as a consumer and end up eating threatened species. You can actually do something to reduce these possibilities. 32. What can we say about tracking fish products? A. It’s unnecessary. B. It’s low-cost. C. It’s difficult. D. It’s time-bound. 33. What can be learned about the Fish List of the CFIA? A. It provides fish options for restaurants. B. It lists all Canadian endangered species. C. It encourages the mislabeling of fish. D. It has strict Canadian fish naming rules. 34. What does the underlined phrase “runs rampant” in the last paragraph mean? A. Remains serious. B. Stops suddenly. C. Becomes expensive. D. Disappears soon. 35. What might the author continue talking about? A. Ways to avoid buying mislabeled fish. B. More mislabeled endangered fish species. C. History of mislabeling finfish products. D. Companies’ practices of mislabeling fish. 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。 Learning how to apologize is similar to learning any new behavior. It may feel awkward and may not be polished at first. 36 There are several tips that will help you as you learn how to apologize. First of all, wait until the right time and you are in the right place. Although public apology is often appropriate, discretion (谨慎) should be used. 37 Remember, you will be raising a topic that may recall a bad experience or bad feelings. Be respectful as you approach this task. Be direct and brief in your approach. Acknowledge the fact that injury has occurred and then take responsibility for what happened. Be sincere in expressing your regret and demonstrate your willingness to take ownership of the situation. 38 Even if you follow these steps, be prepared for rejection. Sometimes, the person apologizing has an expectation that the apology will lead to immediate forgiveness and acceptance. 39 If you think of the offense (冒犯) as an emotional bruise, think of the healing process as the color changes we see as a bruise heals. 40 Knowing when to keep one’s mouth shut is a virtue. Keeping quiet may be very difficult, as post-apology listening is not easy. We may hear unpleasant observations from others about our own shortcomings. We may hear the expression of anger. One of the ways we let others know we are truly responsible and accountable for our mistakes is by listening to the other party pour out the feelings associated with our actions. A. Forgiveness and acceptance may take time. B. To give or receive a good apology is an art. C. But with practice, everyone can learn to do it. D. Listening to the response to our apologies is important. E. Most apologies can and should happen in a private setting. F. In other words, avoid excuses and offer to repair the damage. G. Taking responsibility doesn’t mean accepting blame for everything. 第三部分 基础知识应用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 17-year-old Brady Procon managed to stop a runaway boat going in circles on Lake Winnipesaukee.

But for Emma, this was a lie. The real pain always started when all the students were gathered on the track, ready to run. It wasn’t the fatigue (疲惫) she minded, it was the looks others gave her. Emma was bigger than others her age. Back in primary school, she remembered her classmates asking her why her thighs (大腿) were so big and her chest so wide. On the outside, she looked big, but on the inside, she felt as small as a pea. And PE class was when she felt at her smallest. Not all her classmates made her feel uncomfortable, though. It was mainly a group of girls and boys – the loud, frank, popular kids. Although they could run faster than Emma, they preferred to jog a bit behind her, bursting out in laughter every now and then, commenting on how Emma jogged. Just one more year, Emma kept telling herself. One more year and I would have graduated and wouldn’t have to take this stupid PE class anymore. She just wanted to survive it. But everything changed when a new girl called Kit joined the class. You couldn’t mistake Kit. She had short, jet-black hair, bright eyes, and a long scar (伤疤) across the left side of her face. Her entrance into the classroom that day was met by dozens of curious eyes. Although their teacher, Ms Hardy, didn’t ask Kit for a personal introduction, upon putting her bag down on her desk, Kit rose, saying, “Hi, everyone, nice to meet you. I’m Kit. I love boxing, animation and fashion. You might be wondering about the scar on my face. I got it when I was young when I fell off my bike. Luckily, I didn’t get hurt more seriously. It’s now like a cool trademark of all the adventures I had as a kid.” After Kit’s introduction, Emma simply sat there, her heart pounding and mouth wide open. How could someone who looked so different from the others be so confident? Even the popular kids were sitting there in shock. 注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Over lunchtime, Emma was sitting at her usual table with her classmates when Kit walked over to them. ____________________________________________________________________________________ On Friday, it was time for the frightening PE class, but this time, Kit was with her. ________________________________________________________________________ ____ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
