Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm pleased to hear that some students in our school will be chosen to teach pupils
Chinese in Britain during the summer vacation.I'm interested in this activity very much.
I'm a 17-year-old exchange student from China and I'm good at both Chinese and
English.So Ican teach them some simple Chinese characters and cultures in English.Besides,
I'm outgoing so it will be easy for me to communicate with English pupils.To make my class
lively and interesting,I'll use some cartoon movies and Chinese stories or songs to help them
understand.I'll also encourage them to do some role plays.
I would be grateful if you would consider my application.I'm looking forward to your
reply.
Yours sincerely,

This handy guide answers all the most frequently asked questions about travelling to
Egypt.
Paying for Goods and Services
As a rule,the best exchange rates are found once you've arrived in Egypt-US Dollars,
British Pounds and Euros are the easiest currencies to exchange,and you can take cash out at the
majority of ATMs.Prices are relatively low in shops and restaurants,and bargaining is the norm
in markets-decide how much you want to pay,offer the vendor()slightly lower,and
then argue and argue until you both agree!Finally,it's useful to keep small change on you,as
tipping is expected in cafes and restaurants,and for guides and taxi drivers.
Saving Money on Trips
Tour operators often offer bigger prices for their trips.But if you reserve online,you can
enjoy prices with a discount of up to 50%compared to traditional agencies.For example,the
joumey to Abu Simbel from Aswan is often offered for125 (US 143),but here you can buy
online for just 70 (US 80.10).
Etiquette
Egypt is a relatively conservative nation,and travelling there-as anywhere-you should
do your best to respect local customs and norms to avoid awkward moments or offending
anyone.We recommend:
Dressing modestly:we know it's hot,but making sure shoulders and knees are
covcred,especially in rural areas and religious sites,is important.This doesn't apply when in
resorts or on the beach,and larger towns and cities are usually more relaxed.Loose cotton or
linen()clothing will be more comfortable in the heat.
Respecting religious sites and holidays:mosques are considered sacred ground,and
you should remove your shoes before entering-most places provide foot covers and shoe
storage,just follow what everyone else is doing!On Ramadan(斋月)and other fasting(斋戒)
days,refrain from eating and drinking in public out of respect.
Watching your body language:it is considered disrespectful to show the bottom
高二英语议卷第3页(共10页)
of your feet.You should eat with your right hand,as the left hand is used for washing.It is not
usually acceptable to touch a member of the opposite sex in public.
21.Who do you possibly give a tip in Egypt?
A.A bank alert.
B.A shop owner.
C.A restaurant waiter.
D.A market vendor.
22.How could you get a low price for your trip in Egypt?
A.To bargain with tour operators.
B.To choose some certain routes.
C.To join in a local travel agency.
D.To book a joumey via the Intemet.
23.What's the main purpose of the text?
A.To provide support on planning a travel.
B.To inform you of the customs in Egypt.
C.To help you make more Egyptian friends.
D.To invite you to join a tour group in Egypt.

for 12 years,he said,before he decided it was time to quit."I was just chasing money",he said,
"But I realized that just wasn't true to my core."

underwater diving.As a diver,Goldberg developed a strong appreciation for the coral reefs(
and their essential role in the marine ecosystem.Today,he's on a mission to help bring the
area's coral reefs back to life through his nonprofit,I.CARE.
Over the last two decades,he saw coral reefs in the Florida Keys go from colorful and full
of life to functionally extinct today.Now,he says many of the reefs in the area cannot recover
naturally on their own and require human intervention()to survive.Goldberg knew he
needed to do something to help and wanted to find a way to get other people involved.
He realized that divers could be a great workforce to help tum around the damage and
restore the reefs.Around the same time,he met Dr.Kylie Smith,a behavioral ecologist and a
coral reef ecologist.They spent hours at Goldberg's dive shop discussing the health of the reef.
In 2022,they teamed up to co-found I.CARE,with the goal of appealing to divers to help
restore the area's reefs,ensuring their survival for future generations.
I.CARE organizes and offers special coral restoration dives for local and out-of-town
participants.They spend the day leamning about the importance of coral reefs and how to help

Smart speakers now already help play music,get the news and control appliances at home,
and are expected within the decade to be able to spot oncoming colds and chronic health
conditions before they appear by listening to a user's breathing,voice and heart rate.
That is the prediction of a report from Vodafone into what consumer technology will look
like by 2030.The report says that consumers will expect technology to be a key way they can
monitor their health.It predicts that smart assistants will be able to spot early signs of diseases
such as Parkinson's(帕金森病)from voice analysis alone,,in a similar way to how temperature
is an indicator of fever.
In 2018 it was revealed that Google had filed a patent for a smart speaker that could
determine a speaker's mood through the "volume of the user's voice,detected breathing rate,
crying and so forth",and if they have a medical condition "based on detected coughing,
sneezing and so forth'”.
In January,at the Consumer Electronics Show,start-ups were offering light bulbs that
could monitor a person's body temperature and floorboards that could analyse a user's changing
高二英语试卷第5页(共10页)
weight.
Martin Raymond,co-founder of the Future Laboratory,said that tech companies were
working on smart mirrors that could detect changes in a user's skin colour and send alerts to an
accompanying app if it detected that the person should consult a doctor.
Such devices are also likely to connect with other WiFi-enabled appliances around the
house as well as phones or smartwatches to build up a picture of somebody's health,before
sending health recommendations if needed.
The report says that by the end of the decade,using our voice to control devices will be
"usurped"by mind reading devices,embedded in technology such as smartwatches and
headphones.These will detect the brain signals made when people say words in their head and
give commands without people having to speak.In December 2021,a 62-year-old man with
motor neurone(运s动神经元)disease was the first person in the world to send a tweet via his
thoughts,.using a brain implant(植人的装置)designed by the American-Australian company
Synchron.
The report adds that as we reach 2030,"nature itself will become connected"with sensors
on trees to analyse the environment and send the data to conservationists.
28.What are smart speakers expected to do within ten years?
A.To detect whether people are ill.
B.To help control home appliances.
C.To play music and broadcast news.
D.To make a plan for physical exercise.
29.What can we leamn from the passage?
A.Doctors will receive alerts from a smart mirror of their patients.
B.A smart floorboard has a changing weight restriction for its users.
C.Voice analysis will be used to indicate the presence of Parkinson's.
D.Google has claimed its right for the invention of all smart speakers.
30.What does the underlined word"usurped"mean in Paragraph 7?
A.Operated.
B.Replaced.
C.Applied.
D.Developed.
31.What is the best title for this text?
A.Consumer Electronics Show.
B.Smart Devices in the Next Decade.
C.New Application of Smart Speaker.
D.Connection between Sensors and Nature.

The deep and dark night sky is filled with wonder.Looking up at the bright stars,
mysterious planets and ancient constellations brings a timeless feeling.Today,populated areas
around the globe are enveloped in a type of fog that disconnects people from that amazing night
sky,but reducing light pollution can help to restore the wonder.
After the sun sets,cities and suburbs across the globe are lit up with artificial lights.They
glow along roads and highways and flood fields in sports stadiums.They also shine light on
skyscrapers,malls,and flashing electronic signs.However,these lights negatively impact wildlife
Artificial lighting has caused the firefly population to completely disappear in some areas,
while lighthouse beams negatively impact marine species.In fact,in the US and Canada,18
species of firefly are now classified as being threatened with a high risk of extinction in the next
ten years.
Just leaving that light on affects the behavior of noctumal pollinators()like moths,
causing them to fly towards the light and not the flowers.This,in tum,negatively affects plants
abilities to bear fruit and reproduce.
Many people are aware of many types of pollution including air,water,and land,but few
realize that strong artificial lighting is harmful to all mammals,including humans.In order to
make people aware of the importance of darkness,researchers wrote a world atlas of artificial
night sky brightness,which is published in Science Advances.Their findings reveal that 80
percent of the world populations live under a sky glow,with more than 99 percent of Americans
and Europeans living under light-polluted skies.
Although individuals cannot control the highway and city lights,they can start to do small
things at home.And if everyone"tums off the switch",it can help bring back natural darkness
in some areas.Light areas where light is needed and aim the light beams downwards.Try to use
low-level lighting and be aware that some surfaces reflect more light into the sky.
32.What does the author mainly want to say in Paragraph 2?
A.Light pollution is actually widespread.
B.Artificial lights bring people convenience.
C.The use of artificial lights should be cut down
D.The night sky is beautifully lit up with those lights.
高二英语试卷第7页(共10页)
33.Why do some plants fail to bear fruit?
A.The light has been too strong.
B.The pollinators destroy them.
C.They are not pollinated in time.
D.They don't receive enough light.
34.Why was a world atlas of artificial night sky brightness published?
A.To popularize artificial lighting.
B.To call off environmental protection.
C.To stress the civilizations of human beings.
D.To bring awareness to the meaning of darkness.

Ways to Boost Your Self-Control
Contrary to popular belief self-control does not come along by denying yourself something
or being "strict"with yourself.It is about loving yourself and developing new habits.35
This is how you get there:
Set clear goals so when it comes down to it,you can think first,act later.When you have
knowledge that a greater reward is at stake(得失难料,you are going to have an easier time
letting go of immediate satisfaction.Prioritize your list according to what you want to achieve
in the future.36
Motivate yourself to win and remember that life doesn't happen to you,it happens for you.
Anxiety arises from the belief that you are not in control of your life circumstances but are a
victim of them.37 That will set the stage for you to regain your power and access your
inner motivation to win and achieve.
Know your triggers()and control the stress response.Certain situations,people or
even foods will cause your stress response to be triggered.Your job is to pay attention.38
It could be sleep deprivation,or it could be a tendency to feel overly criticized by your boss.By
knowing your triggers,you can either avoid them or develop ways to deal with them.
39 Either enlist friends or family members to join you or ask for their support to
remind you of your long-term goals.The key here is that no one is allowed to criticize you or
高二英语试卷第8页(共10页)
cause you to feel guilt or shame.Instead,they are to remind you to love yourself and help you
get back on track when you slip up.
A.Get some reliable partners.
B.Who and what causes you to feel emotional?
C.You should think twice to avoid possible mistakes.
D.Change your mindset to being a victor of your life.
E.It will help you follow your heart and improve your performance.
F.In other words,it is a positive effort,not one of denial or negativity.
G.When following this process,you will think twice before acting on a sudden urge.

Life transitions can be defined as significant changes in life that force individuals to adjust
to a new set of circumstances.These changes can be positive,negative,or neutral,but regardless
of their nature,they can be disruptive to our lives.For instance,moving to a new city can be
exciting,but it can also be challenging to adapt to a new environment,make new friends,and
establish a new support system.
There's no denying that life often presents us with our fair share of challenges,usually in
the form of sudden change.These life transitions,even the positive ones,can throw us into a
tailspin()and leave us feeling stressed,confused,and vulnerable.But with the right tools
and mindset,you have the power to overcome any adversity in the sudden change.
Change,even difficult change that is neither wanted nor expected,can influence personal
growth.Change gives us the opportunity to see what we're made of;to become stronger,more
confident,and better prepared for what life throws at us next.With each new challenge,we
develop new personal skills and obtain a greater awareness of ourselves,our families,and our
communities.
During times of change,our mental health can suffer.We may experience a range
of emotions,such as anxiety,fear,sadness,and frustration.We may feel overwhelmed and
高二英语试卷第9页(共10页)
struggle to cope with the new challenges and demands of our lives.Additionally,our
self-esteem may be impacted as we face new challenges that we are not sure we can overcome.
These feelings can lead to mental health problems,such as depression and anxiety,which can
affect our overall well-being.Sometimes we can handle change and adversity by ourselves and
sometimes we need a little help
40.What are life transitions?
41.How can we gain the power to handle life transitions?
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and
explain why.
>Life transitions can give us an insight into ourselves and surely promote our mental well-
being.
43.What tips will you give to a friend who is suffering from a life transition?(In about 40
words)
