One morning, he came across a beach accidentally where thousands of starfish had washed up. The old man noticed a little girl was coming in the distance. As she walked, she would stop to bend down (弯下腰) and pick up an object and throw it into the sea. The man walked closer asking what she was doing by the seaside. She stopped, looked up, and replied, “Throwing starfish into the sea.” The man asked her why, to which she replied, “The sea has washed them up onto the beach and they can’t go back to the sea by themselves. When the sun gets high, they will die, unless I throw them back into the water.” The man noted, “But there are miles and miles of beach and there are thousands of starfish all along every mile, how will you make much of a difference?” The girl bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it as far as she could into the sea. Then she turned towards the old man, gave a smile and said, “I made a difference to that one!” After hearing the girl’s explanation, the old man was shocked. People often think they can’t do enough to make a big difference so they put off their actions or wait for someone else to take the lead. However, the little girl taught the old man a very important lesson. Everyone has the opportunities to create positive changes. One small step towards changing the world can make a big difference. Be the change for someone and inspire others to do the same. While you may not be able to change the whole world, you can make a big difference for a small part of it. 24.

People can change the world when they grow up. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26.

You aren’t able to do your best and keep up with all of your responsibilities unless you sleep well. I’m sure you already know that you should go to bed at a reasonable hour. Most experts agree that the best number of hours is eight, and this has been accepted as common sense for as long as I can remember. Nowadays, experts at the National Sleep Foundation suggest that people sleep between seven and nine hours each night. However, I was young once and I know that most of you get much less sleep than that—and in some cases it will be influencing your schoolwork. I read an interesting article in a teachers’ magazine recently. They did a study of 848 students in Wales. Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at proper times but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack but because of a new phenomenon (现象): FOMO—fear of missing out! According to the article, schoolchildren are painful because of a growing trend (趋势) to wake up during the night to check social media. Afraid of missing a comment (评论) or opportunity to take part in a conversation, teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved. They are always eager to interact (互动) with others. Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report shows some worrying statistics (统计数据) that I’d like to share with you: 23% of 12 to 15-year-olds wake up nearly every night to use social media Another 15% wake up at night once a week for the same reason. One in three students are always tired and unable to provide their best effort. Students who use social media during the night are more likely to have both depression (抑郁) and anxiety. So, I’d like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Be brave! Switch off your devices (设备) at night. The world won’t end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning! 27. Research shows that schoolchildren are tired because they ________. A. are getting up too early in the morning B. are waking up in the middle of the night C. use the bathroom too long and go to bed late D. are waiting to greet teachers in the morning 28. Fear of Missing Out is ________. A. an emotional need to go out with families all the time B. anxiety about not having the latest technology and device C. a device that is used to help students fall asleep quickly D. a fear of missing opportunities for interaction on social media 29. Students who use social media during the night ________. A. have a higher risk of depression and anxiety B. worry about the growing social problems C. should read articles about how to stay asleep D. do well in exams but behave badly at school 【答案】27. B 28. D 29. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了许多青少年睡眠不足的原因，指出了晚上使用社交媒体的危害，建议学生晚上关掉手机不用社交媒体。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They did a study of 848 students in Wales. Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at proper times but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack but because of a new phenomenon (现象): FOMO—fear of missing out!”可知，研究表明，学龄儿童感到疲倦是因为他们在半夜醒来。故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Afraid of missing a comment (评论) or opportunity to take part in a conversation, teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved.”可知，Fear of Missing Out是指害怕错过社交媒体上的互动机会。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Students who use social media during the night are more likely to have both depression (抑郁) and anxiety.”可知，夜间使用社交媒体的学生患抑郁症和焦虑症的风险更高。故选A。 D Advertisers often use special techniques to get consumers (消费者) to buy products, services and ideas. Very often, we are persuaded (劝说) to buy a product or service because of what we see on the television, hear on the radio, or read on social media. Advertising has encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production. Advertising techniques that get consumers to buy more to get greater discount (折扣), often attract consumers to buy what they do not need to enjoy more benefits. For one, tech companies are constantly producing new products and their advertisements highlight the positive features of the latest models, persuading consumers to throw away their old devices and buy new ones. Similarly, advertising constantly promotes (推广) new trends and styles, encouraging people to discard their out-of-fashion items for trendier ones. Advertising also encourages an addictive behaviour that results in repetitive buying. To persuade buyers to repeat their purchase (购买), companies often use some attractive methods such as limited-time discounts, promotions and coupons.Buyers who do not want to miss out on a good deal,would buy again even if they have no need for the product. Some may argue that advertising can play an important role in persuading people towards lasting living, and leading a less wasteful lifestyle, such as in the case of advertising second-hand clothes. Advertising has also successfully changed buyers’ opinions of second-hand clothes as “cheap” and “dirty”, promoting them as eco-friendly and stylish. However, the promise of companies towards sustainability (可持续发展) remains low. Advertising is still the main tool for companies to promote their brands, and ultimately make more money. Still, many believe that effective advertising is the key driving force that enables mass-produced products to be sold quickly, with even social media sales relying heavily on persuasive techniques to attract the users of social media.However, some people believe that FOMO (fear of missing out) is an even more powerful force to persuade buyers to spend on things they do not need. It is FOMOthat persuades people to join a long line to buy something they probably have no need for, based on social media posts of purchases that friends have made. Nowadays, people are spending more on things they do not need. However, advertising does not necessarily result in us being more wasteful. It is a matter of personal choice. After all, there is just so much we can eat, wear or use. Although advertisements may appear in front of us anytime and anywhere, we should need to correctly tell the differences between what we need and what we want. Just keep a clear mind. 30. How has advertising encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production? A. By increasing the amount of advertising. B. By providing more attractions to the consumers. C. By highlighting the price of the latest products. D. By telling companies to throw away out-of-fashion products. 31. The underlined word “addictive” in Paragraph 3 probably means “making people ________ something” A. interested in trying B. unable to stop doing C. worried about missing D. happy to throw away 32. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. the misleading of advertising is the main reason for more waste B. advertising fails to change buyers’ opinions about second-hand items C. social media has more powerful force to persuade buyers than FOMO D. FOMO can lead people to buy something that they might have no need for 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To introduce some useful advertising techniques. B. To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of advertising. C. To explain why advertising brings buyers a wasteful lifestyle. D. To advise people to make right choices when facing advertisements. 【答案】30. B 31. B 32. D 33. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要分析了广告商如何让我们去购买不需要的东西，作者建议我们在面对广告时要做出正确的选择。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Advertising has encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production. Advertising techniques that get consumers to buy more to get greater discount (折扣), often attract consumers to buy what they do not need to enjoy more benefits.”可知，是通过为消费者提供更多的吸引力，促使从以需求为基础的生产向以欲望为基础的生产转变。故选B。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Advertising also encourages an addictive behaviour that results in repetitive buying.”和"“To persuade buyers to repeat their purchase (购买),...”可知，通过各种方法让买家重复购买，即让买家产生上瘾的行为，与B选项意思相近。故选B。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“However, some people believe that FOMO (fear of missing out) is an even more powerful force to persuade buyers to spend on things they do not need.(然而，一些人认为FOMO(害怕错过)是一种更强大的力量，可以说服买家在他们不需要的东西上花钱。)”可知，作者认为FOMO可以引导人们购买他们可能不需要的东西。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要分析了广告商如何让我们去购买不需要的东西，作者告诉我们在购物时要保持清醒的头脑，做出正确的选择。故选D。 四、阅读表达（34-36题，每题2分，37题4分，共10分）阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 If traditional Chinese culture were a gold mine (金矿), then Zhong Yetang would be the miner. Zhong is now a full-time vlogger with almost 200000 followers on a social platform. Zhong has a special style as she tries to bring ancient history back to life in a creative way. She is finding a relationship between traditional culture and modern design. “I don’t want people to see some Chinese ancient culture as boring and far-off,” she said, “we have duty to make the past serve the present and it can be cool and fashionable and something we can play with.” She recreates dishes from ancient books, makes short plays that tell ancient people’s life stories and compares Chinese customs with similar Western ones. For example, she played two roles as the ancient beauties Xishi and Yang Yuhuan, making them compete in a rap battle with each other. In another video, Zhong wears costumes (服装) from the 56 ethnic (民族的) groups of China. Half of them were bought, and the other half were self-designed. It took her almost two years to prepare for it. “I didn’t expect that it would take so long and that I’d face so many challenges,” she said. To make the clothing true to the ethnic groups, Zhong studied a lot of reading material and got information from local people. But she found that some culture had been lost. “I’m impressed most by the Hezhe ethnic group. Their clothes were made from fish skin,” Zhong said. “But due to its lack of practical value, fish skin was gradually replaced by silk and cloth. As a result, fewer people now know how to make it.” She tried hard to restore one of these costumes as authentically (真正地) as possible. After studying in the US for three years, she found that many Americans were curious about Chinese culture. That inspired her to devote herself to becoming a “gold miner of traditional Chinese culture” after she graduated. She is making her videos available on various popular video platforms. 34. What special style does Zhong have? ______________________________ 35. What did Zhong do to make the clothing true to the ethnic groups? ______________________________ 36. What inspired Zhong to devote herself to becoming a “gold miner”? ______________________________ 37. What do you think of Zhong’s actions towards Chinese culture? Why? (Give at least two reasons. ) ______________________________ 【答案】34. She tries to bring ancient history back to life in a creative way. 35. She studied a lot of reading material and got information from local people. 36. She found that many Americans were curious about Chinese culture. 37. I think these actions are very meaningful. First they can bring ancient culture back to life. Second they can spread Chinese culture. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了钟也棠制作的许多介绍古人生活的视频很受欢迎，介绍了她做这些视频背后的付出。 【34题详解】 根据“Zhong has a special style as she tries to bring ancient history back to life in a creative way.”可知，钟也棠的风格很特别，因为她用很有创造力的方式让许多古代的历史重现。故填She tries to bring ancient history back to life in a creative way. 【35题详解】 根据“To make the clothing true to the ethnic groups, Zhong studied a lot of reading material and got information from local people.”可知，为了让服装贴合少数民族，钟研究了许多书籍，并且从当地人获取信息。故填She studied a lot of reading material and got information from local people. 【36题详解】 根据“After studying in the US for three years, she found that many Americans were curious about Chinese culture. That inspired her to devote herself to becoming a ‘gold miner of traditional Chinese culture’ after she graduated.”可知，在美国学习三年后，她发现许多美国人对中国文化感兴趣，这激励她成为一名“中国传统文化的淘金人”。故填She found that many Americans were curious about Chinese culture. 【37题详解】 开放性答案，合理即可。比如我认为这些动作很有意义，因为可以让古代文化再现以及中国文化得到传播。故填I think these actions are very meaningful. First they can bring ancient culture back to life. Second they can spread Chinese culture. 五、文段表达（10分） 38. 从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据所给提示，完成一篇不少于50词的英语文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 38. 假设你是李华，你们年级将组织露营活动。请你写一封邮件，告诉因事请假的交换生 Peter露营的具体事宜，包括学校安排露营活动的目的、露营 准备，以及集合时间和地点。 提示词语：improve, life skills, trainers, food and drink, Friday 提示问题：●Why does your school organize a camping trip? ●What do you need to prepare for it? ●When and where will you meet?

This spirit has a great influence on me. Once, when I struggled with a difficult math problem, I almost lost hope. But when I thought about how the sunflower never stops following the sun, I got my confidence back. With the encouragement and support of my classmates, I found the solution. This experience deepened my understanding of the sunflower spirit. It’s about staying confident and determined, even in the face of difficulties. Just like sunflowers, we should always strive for brightness and never give up. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态为“一般现在时”和“一般过去时”； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生应注意不要遗漏信息，可适当补充细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，总述你对向阳花精神的理解； 第二步，简述和向阳花精神有关的个人经历； 第三步，通过个人经历，讲述你对向阳花精神的更深刻的理解。 [亮点词汇] ①give up放弃 ②have a great influence on对……有很大的影响 ③deepen my understanding加深我的理解 ④in the face of面对 ⑤strive for争取 [高分句型] ①Sunflowers, which always face the sun, show us something important…（which引导的定语从句） ②But when I thought about how the sunflower never stops following the sun, I got my confidence back.（when引导的时间状语从句；how引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 北京二中教育集团2023—2024学年度第二学期. 初三英语保温训练试卷 考生须知 1. 本试卷分为试卷和答题卡，共12页；其中试卷10页，答题纸2页。全卷共五大题，38道小题。 2. 本试卷满分60分，考试时间90分钟。 3. 在试卷指定位置和答题纸的密封线内准确填写班级、姓名、考号、座位号。 知识运用（共14分） 一、单项选择。（共6分，每小题0.5分） 从下面各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 1.

Joe was surprised and ____16____ when he first met Fonzie, a 3-metre-long, 275 kilograms lovely dolphin. Then he played with it happily. Soon, Joe wanted to see Fonzie ____17____ every day because he loved playing with it and feeding it. Joe’s mother told him to always try with his left hand, so Joe used his left side more and more.

B Understand the expectations Knowing your study expectations is a great way to manage stress. Being unsure of the requirements can cause stress.

It’s important to spend quality time in yourself and in the things you enjoy. D Improve comfort The discomfort caused by unsuitable chairs or desks, annoying noises, and even clothing can make you feel stressed. Improve your living environment and clothing as comfortable as possible. ____21____ ____22____ ____23____ （二）阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 B There was once an old man who went to the seaside every morning, walking along the beach drawing pictures and enjoying the beautiful sea. One morning, he came across a beach accidentally where thousands of starfish had washed up. The old man noticed a little girl was coming in the distance. As she walked she would stop to bend down (弯下腰) and pick up an object and throw it into the sea. The man walked closer asking what she was doing by the seaside. She stopped, looked up, and replied, “Throwing starfish into the sea.” The man asked her why, to which she replied, “The sea has washed them up onto the beach and they can’t go back to the sea by themselves. When the sun gets high, they will die, unless I throw them back into the water.” The man noted “But there are miles and miles of beach and there are thousands of starfish all along every mile, how will you make much of a difference?” The girl bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it as far as she could into the sea. Then she turned towards the old man, gave a smile and said, “I made a difference to that one!” After hearing the girl’s explanation, the old man was shocked. People often think they can’t do enough to make a big difference so they put off their actions or wait for someone else to take the lead. However, the little girl taught the old man a very important lesson. Everyone has the opportunities to create positive changes. One small step towards changing the world can make a big difference. Be the change for someone and inspire others to do the same. While you may not be able to change the whole world, you can make a big difference for a small part of it. 24. What did the little girl do by the seaside? A. She drew pictures to enjoy the beautiful sea. B. She washed the starfish and made them clean. C. She threw the starfish into the sea to save them. D. She walked along the beach and was bathed in the sun. 25. How did the old man feel after hearing the girl’s explanation? A. Shocked. B. Worried. C. Excited. D. Relaxed. 26. What can we learn from the story? A. Confidence can make wishes come true. B. Taking a small step can make a big difference. C. Changing others is necessary if they are wrong. D. People can change the world when they grow up. C FOMO Everybody knows how important it is for students to get a good night’s sleep every night. You aren’t able to do your best and keep up with all of your responsibilities unless you sleep well. I’m sure you already know that you should go to bed at a reasonable hour. Most experts agree that the best number of hours is eight, and this has been accepted as common sense for as long as I can remember. Nowadays, experts at the National Sleep Foundation suggest that people sleep between seven and nine hours each night. However, I was young once and I know that most of you get much less sleep than that—and in some cases it will be influencing your schoolwork. I read an interesting article in a teachers’ magazine recently. They did a study of 848 students in Wales. Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at proper times but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack but because of a new phenomenon (现象): FOMO—fear of missing out! According to the article, schoolchildren are painful because of a growing trend (趋势) to wake up during the night to check social media. Afraid of missing a comment (评论) or opportunity to take part in a conversation, teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved. They are always eager to interact (互动) with others. Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report shows some worrying statistics (统计数据) that I’d like to share with you: 23% of 12 to 15-year-olds wake up nearly every night to use social media. Another 15% wake up at night once a week for the same reason. One in three students are always tired and unable to provide their best effort. Students who use social media during the night are more likely to have both depression (抑郁) and anxiety. So, I’d like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Be brave! Switch off your devices (设备) at night. The world won’t end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning! 27. Research shows that schoolchildren are tired because they ________. A. are getting up too early in the morning B. are waking up in the middle of the night C. use the bathroom too long and go to bed late D. are waiting to greet teachers in the morning 28. Fear of Missing Out is ________. A. an emotional need to go out with families all the time B. anxiety about not having the latest technology and device C. a device that is used to help students fall asleep quickly D. a fear of missing opportunities for interaction on social media 29. Students who use social media during the night ________. A. have a higher risk of depression and anxiety B. worry about the growing social problems C. should read articles about how to stay asleep D. do well in exams but behave badly at school D Advertisers often use special techniques to get consumers (消费者) to buy products, services and ideas. Very often, we are persuaded (劝说) to buy a product or service because of what we see on the television, hear on the radio, or read on social media. Advertising has encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production. Advertising techniques that get consumers to buy more to get greater discount (折扣), often attract consumers to buy what they do not need to enjoy more benefits. For one, tech companies are constantly producing new products and their advertisements highlight the positive features of the latest models, persuading consumers to throw away their old devices and buy new ones. Similarly, advertising constantly promotes (推广) new trends and styles, encouraging people to discard their out-of-fashion items for trendier ones. Advertising also encourages an addictive behaviour that results in repetitive buying. To persuade buyers to repeat their purchase (购买), companies often use some attractive methods such as limited-time discounts, promotions and coupons.Buyers who do not want to miss out on a good deal,would buy again even if they have no need for the product. Some may argue that advertising can play an important role in persuading people towards lasting living, and leading a less wasteful lifestyle, such as in the case of advertising second-hand clothes. Advertising has also successfully changed buyers’ opinions of second-hand clothes as “cheap” and “dirty”, promoting them as eco-friendly and stylish. However, the promise of companies towards sustainability (可持续发展) remains low. Advertising is still the main tool for companies to promote their brands, and ultimately make more money. Still, many believe that effective advertising is the key driving force that enables mass-produced products to be sold quickly, with even social media sales relying heavily on persuasive techniques to attract the users of social media.However, some people believe that FOMO (fear of missing out) is an even more powerful force to persuade buyers to spend on things they do not need. It is FOMOthat persuades people to join a long line to buy something they probably have no need for, based on social media posts of purchases that friends have made. Nowadays, people are spending more on things they do not need. However, advertising does not necessarily result in us being more wasteful. It is a matter of personal choice. After all, there is just so much we can eat, wear or use. Although advertisements may appear in front of us anytime and anywhere, we should need to correctly tell the differences between what we need and what we want. Just keep a clear mind. 30. How has advertising encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production? A. By increasing the amount of advertising. B. By providing more attractions to the consumers. C. By highlighting the price of the latest products. D. By telling companies to throw away out-of-fashion products. 31. The underlined word “addictive” in Paragraph 3 probably means “making people ________ something” A. interested in trying B. unable to stop doing C. worried about missing D. happy to throw away 32. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. the misleading of advertising is the main reason for more waste B. advertising fails to change buyers’ opinions about second-hand items C. social media has more powerful force to persuade buyers than FOMO D. FOMO can lead people to buy something that they might have no need for 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To introduce some useful advertising techniques. B. To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of advertising. C. To explain why advertising brings buyers a wasteful lifestyle. D. To advise people to make right choices when facing advertisements. 四、阅读表达（34-36题，每题2分，37题4分，共10分）阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 If traditional Chinese culture were a gold mine (金矿), then Zhong Yetang would be the miner. Zhong is now a full-time vlogger with almost 200,000 followers on a social platform. Zhong has a special style as she tries to bring ancient history back to life in a creative way. She is finding a relationship between traditional culture and modern design. “I don’t want people to see some Chinese ancient culture as boring and far-off,” she said, “we have duty to make the past serve the present and it can be cool and fashionable and something we can play with.” She recreates dishes from ancient books, makes short plays that tell ancient people’s life stories and compares Chinese customs with similar Western ones. For example, she played two roles as the ancient beauties Xishi and Yang Yuhuan, making them compete in a rap battle with each other. In another video, Zhong wears costumes (服装) from the 56 ethnic (民族的) groups of China. Half of them were bought, and the other half were self-designed. It took her almost two years to prepare for it. “I didn’t expect that it would take so long and that I’d face so many challenges,” she said. To make the clothing true to the ethnic groups, Zhong studied a lot of reading material and got information from local people. But she found that some culture had been lost. “I’m impressed most by the Hezhe ethnic group. Their clothes were made from fish skin,” Zhong said. “But due to its lack of practical value, fish skin was gradually replaced by silk and cloth. As a result, fewer people now know how to make it.” She tried hard to restore one of these costumes as authentically (真正地) as possible. After studying in the US for three years, she found that many Americans were curious about Chinese culture. That inspired her to devote herself to becoming a “gold miner of traditional Chinese culture” after she graduated. She is making her videos available on various popular video platforms. 34 What special style does Zhong have? ______________________________ 35. What did Zhong do to make the clothing true to the ethnic groups? ______________________________ 36. What inspired Zhong to devote herself to becoming a “gold miner”? ______________________________ 37. What do you think of Zhong’s actions towards Chinese culture? Why?
