But others are now getting to see his medical skills as he often goes door-to-door to serve patients. The 34-year-old Vázquez is still living out his love of music. He also believes he is helping those in need and bringing attention to a health crisis in Puerto Rico. The US territory is currently facing power outages as well as a shortage of medical professionals. Many doctors and other workers have gone to the US mainland seeking better pay. The problem is expected to get worse in the coming years. Vázquez travels from the capital, San Juan, to rural areas of the island at least once a week. During these trips, he seeks to treat communities struggling from the combined effects of hurricanes, earthquakes and a weak economy. When not working as a doctor, Vázquez produces and performs music that brings attention to issues including social inequality, poverty and gun violence. In one song, he brings up the territory’s problems with violence. “A bullet is flying, lost like a child,” he raps, “the wind caresses it, seeks to make news, falling into a skull, without any kind of justice.” The rap song, in English, is called Bullets Cry. Vázquez was born in the Bronx area of New York City. But he moved with his family to the town of Ponce, Puerto Rico. Later, he went to Pennsylvania, and then he returned to Bayamón, Puerto Rico. It was there that Vázquez studied medicine. He became a doctor in 2015. He became a household name as a rapper for a younger generation in Latin Americs in 2018．The single that made Vázquez a star was called What Is Your Plan? He worked with Puerto Rican. musician Bad Bunny and reggaeton binger Nejo on the song. In 2020, he decided to start working in medicine again. Vázquez worked full-time at a hospital in Ponce for a year. Then, as a general doctor, he treated patients of all ages. Vázquez noted that some doctors questioned his medical abilities at first, since he had spent years performing as a rapper. But after a short time, he said, “Everybody knew that this wasn’t a joke for me, and that I’m really good at what I do.” 4. Why is Puerto Rico lacking medical professionals at present? A. Because it is a disaster area. B. Because there are not enough patients. C. Because there is violence in this area. D. Because of low salary and benefits. 5. Where did Vázquez ultimately obtain his medical qualification? A. In San Juan. B. In Pennsylvania. C. In Ponce. D. In Bayamón. 6. How did Vázquez become famous? A. By creating Bullets Cry. B. By treating various types of patients. C. By paying attention to various social issues. D. By cooperating with others on What Is Your Plan. 7. Which of the following can best describe Vázquez? A Humorous. B. Responsible. C. Humble. D. Optimistic. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了波多黎各医生兼说唱歌手Pedro Juan Vázquez的故事，他不仅在音乐领域有所成就，还致力于医疗服务，特别是在波多黎各面临医疗人员短缺的情况下，他选择回归医学领域，为患者提供治疗。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Many doctors and other workers have gone to the US mainland seeking better pay. The problem is expected to get worse in the coming years.(许多医生和其他工作人员都去了美国大陆寻求更好的报酬。预计未来几年，这一问题将愈发严重。)”可知，波多黎各目前缺乏医疗专业人员是因为工资和福利低。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“Later, he went to Pennsylvania, and then he returned to Bayamón, Puerto Rico. It was there that Vázquez studied medicine. He became a doctor in 2015.(后来，他去了宾夕法尼亚，然后又回到了波多黎各的巴亚蒙。正是在那里，Vázquez学习了医学。他在2015年成为了一名医生。)”可知，Vázquez最终是在巴亚蒙获得了他的医学资格。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“He became a household name as a rapper for a younger generation in Latin Americs in 2018. The single that made Vázquez a star was called What Is Your Plan? He worked with Puerto Rican musician Bad Bunny and reggaeton binger Nejo on the song.(2018年，作为一名说唱歌手，他在拉丁美洲的年轻一代中声名鹊起。《What Is Your Plan?》这首单曲让Vázquez成为了一位明星。他与波多黎各音乐家Bad Bunny和雷鬼音乐歌手Nejo合作了这首歌。)”可知，Vázquez是通过与他人合作《What Is Your Plan》而出名的。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“But others are now getting to see his medical skills as he often goes door-to-door to serve patients.(但现在，其他人也开始看到他的医术，因为他经常挨家挨户地为病人服务。)”和文章倒数第一段提到“Then, as a general doctor, he treated patients of all ages.(然后，作为一名全科医生，他为各个年龄段的患者进行治疗。)”可知，Vázquez作为医生，很有责任感。故选B。 C Currently, many people around the world are working on ways of removing carbon from the air and storing it. This is often called Direct Air Capture (DAC). DAC technology is still being developed. But normally during the process, air is pulled across a material that can remove CO2 from it. One common material is limestone (石灰石). Later, the material is heated to carefully release the CO2 so it can be stored safely underground. But the current methods of doing this are costly and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2. COF-999, the new material created by scientists at UC Berkeley, is a different story. To test COF-999, the scientists filled a small tube (about as big as a drinking straw) with the powder (粉末). They then piped air from outside their lab through the tube for 20 days. Though there was CO2 in the air outside, the air that came out of the tube had no carbon dioxide at all. The discovery was exciting for the scientists. “I see the solution to the climate problem right there, in our hands,” said one of the scientists, Dr. Omar Yaghi. COF-999 captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside. To get COF-999 to release the carbon, it just needs to be heated to around 140℉ (60℃). That’s much cooler than most other DAC materials, meaning it will take less energy to collect the CO2. The materials needed to make COF-999 don’t cost much and they can be reused thousands of times. The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now. The next big challenge is figuring out how to use COF-999 in a direct air capture system. The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years. 8. What does the author say about current DAC technology? A. It needs little energy to operate. B. It is expensive and inefficient. C. It has been widely adopted worldwide. D. It uses advanced technology to be updated. 9. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on? A. The advantages of COF-999. B. The process of testing COF-999. C. The future applications of COF-999. D. The cost of producing COF-999. 10. What can be inferred about the current state of COF-999 technology? A. It is still under development. B. It is already used in DAC systems. C. Its materials can be only used twice. D. It needs no energy to release captured CO2. 11. What do the researchers think of COF-999? A. Supernatural. B. Inefficient. C. Promising. D. Impractical. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新型材料COF-999在直接空气捕获（DAC）技术中的应用及其优势。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But the current methods of doing this are costly and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2.(但目前的方法成本高昂，而且捕获的二氧化碳并不多)”可知，作者认为当前的DAC技术昂贵且效率低下。故选B。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“COF-999 captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside.

The materials needed to make COF-999 don’t cost much and they can be reused thousands of times.(COF-999捕获二氧化碳的速度大约是其他直接空气捕获材料的10倍。研究人员说，半磅（230克）这种粉末可以从空气中吸收与一棵树一样多的二氧化碳。但与树木不同的是，即使在室外黑暗的情况下，COF-999也能捕获二氧化碳。为了让COF-999释放碳，只需要将其加热到140华氏度（60摄氏度）左右。这比大多数其他直接空气捕获材料要冷得多，这意味着收集二氧化碳所需的能量更少。制造COF-999所需的材料成本不高，而且可以重复使用数千次)”可知，第四段主要介绍了COF-999的优势。故选A。 10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now. The next big challenge is figuring out how to use COF-999 in a direct air capture system. The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years.(研究人员仍在研究COF-999，并希望它很快就能去除现在两倍量的碳。下一个大的挑战是弄清楚如何在直接空气捕获系统中使用COF-999。科学家们相信，COF-999将在大约两年内准备好用于DAC系统)”可推知，COF-999技术仍在开发中。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now.

The rats have learned to recognize the smell of these items, and can alert their handlers when they find them. The programme is still being tested, but the method could help protect some endangered animals. People who smuggle the animal products often hide them in tricky ways. They might paint an elephant tusk black or try to make pangolin scales look like candy or chocolate. They might hide the products in a false bottom in a box. Often, they try to cover the smell of these items with other things that have strong smells, such as coffee. Sadly, many of the countries these animal products come from are poor, so there’s not a lot of money to spend on catching the criminals. A group called APOPO thinks that African giant pouched rats might be able to help. These rats are clever. They learn quickly, and have a strong sense of smell. In the past, these rats were used to find land mines, sniff (嗅) out diseases, and help search for people after earthquakes. The rats are trained using food rewards. They are first taught to stick their noses into a hole. Next, the scientists train them to identify certain smells. Finally, the rats are taught about smells they should ignore — smells that might be used to cover up the smell of the wildlife. When the rats are working, they wear special vests. If the rat detects one of the smells it’s looking for, it grabs a little ball on its vest and pulls on it. This action sets off a beeping sound so that the rat’s handlers can come to investigate. Last year, the rats were tested at the Dar es Salaam seaport in Tanzania, a busy international port. The scientists had hidden illegal wildlife products in several containers. The rats were able to locate over 83% of the hidden items, even when there were other smells to cover up the target smells. 12. What does the underlined word “alert” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Confuse. B. Observe. C. Sense. D. Signal. 13. What does Paragraph 2 imply? A. Stopping illegal wildlife trade is hard. B. Animal products enjoy great popularity. C. Endangered animals are saved in tricky ways. D. Smugglers are from underdeveloped countries. 14. What does Paragraph 4 intend to show? A. The effectiveness of rats in detecting drugs. B. The types of illegal wildlife products smuggled. C. The step-by-step process of how rats are trained. D. The challenges faced by handlers during training. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. New Techniques in Wildlife Protection B. Rats Trained to Detect Wildlife Smuggling C. Training Animals for Conservation Efforts D. The Importance of Detecting Illegal Wildlife Trade 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了坦桑尼亚的科学家们如何训练老鼠来帮助检测出非法走私的野生动物产品。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Scientists in Tanzania have trained rats to help detect illegal wildlife products being smuggled (走私) out of the country.(坦桑尼亚科学家训练老鼠来帮助探测走私到国外的非法野生动物产品)”以及该词后文“their handlers when they find them”可知，坦桑尼亚科学家训练老鼠来帮助探测走私到国外的非法野生动物产品，说明老鼠在发现目标物品时会通知它们的处理者。故划线词意为“发出信号，示意”。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“People who smuggle the animal products often hide them in tricky ways. They might paint an elephant tusk black or try to make pangolin scales look like candy or chocolate. They might hide the products in a false bottom in a box. Often, they try to cover the smell of these items with other things that have strong smells, such as coffee. Sadly, many of the countries these animal products come from are poor, so there’s not a lot of money to spend on catching the criminals.(走私动物产品的人经常用狡猾的方法隐藏它们。他们可能会把象牙涂成黑色，或者试图让穿山甲鳞片看起来像糖果或巧克力。他们可能会把产品藏在一个假底的盒子里。通常，他们会试图用其他有强烈气味的东西来掩盖这些东西的气味，比如咖啡。可悲的是，这些动物产品的许多来源地都很贫穷，因此没有很多钱用于抓捕罪犯)”可知，第二段暗示阻止非法野生动物贸易很难。故选A。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The rats are trained using food rewards. They are first taught to stick their noses into a hole. Next, the scientists train them to identify certain smells. Finally, the rats are taught about smells they should ignore — smells that might be used to cover up the smell of the wildlife. When the rats are working, they wear special vests. If the rat detects one of the smells it’s looking for, it grabs a little ball on its vest and pulls on it. This action sets off a beeping sound so that the rat’s handlers can come to investigate.(老鼠是用食物奖励来训练的。他们首先被教导把鼻子伸进洞里。接下来，科学家们训练它们识别特定的气味。最后，老鼠被告知它们应该忽略的气味——这些气味可能被用来掩盖野生动物的气味。当老鼠工作时，它们会穿上特殊的背心。如果老鼠发现了它正在寻找的一种气味，它就会抓住背心上的一个小球，然后拉它。这个动作会发出蜂鸣声，这样老鼠的饲养员就可以过来调查了)”可知，第四段想要表达的是训练老鼠的循序渐进的过程。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Scientists in Tanzania have trained rats to help detect illegal wildlife products being smuggled (走私) out of the country.(坦桑尼亚科学家训练老鼠来帮助探测走私到国外的非法野生动物产品)”可知，文章主要讲述了坦桑尼亚科学家如何训练老鼠来帮助检测出非法走私的野生动物产品。由此可知，B选项“训练老鼠侦查野生动物走私”适合作文章标题。故选B。 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。 A painting created by a robot named Ai-Da was sold at an art auction (拍卖) last Thursday for $1.08 million.

She loved her role as a mother, but she often felt consumed by it, like her life would never return to normal. One day, when her baby was about three months old, she decided that her whole family — her husband, her two young boys and her new baby boy — should get out of the house and go to a restaurant. They tumbled out of the car, ready with a diaper (尿布) bag, books for the kids to read, a seat for the baby and bags of snacks. As soon as they stepped onto the curb, her baby was ready to nurse again, and Berne knew she had to get inside. “I was already feeling pretty shaky,” she recalled. “So we all pile into the restaurant. We’re very messy; we’re very loud.” Her baby thrashed (剧烈扭动) around as she tried to nurse him under a blanket, and she worried he was about to cry. Berne began to feel hopeless. “I was feeling a little teary-eyed because, although we were doing it, this was really hard.” A short time later, her unsung hero appeared: an older woman, who reminded Berne of her own mum. This woman came up and stood there and looked at them. And Berne was sort of preparing that she was gonna say how cute the baby was. Instead, the woman took them all in. She said admiringly, “What a beautiful family.” Then she looked at Berne’s two young boys, ages 6 and 3, sitting quietly on Berne’s side of the table. And she said, “It’s not easy to sit at a table for a long time.” The woman saw her older children in a way few people seemed to, now that they were no longer in the infant (婴儿) stage. “Nobody ever noticed them anymore,” Berne recalled. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then the woman turned to Berne. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nearly 10 years later, Berne is still moved by the woman’s thoughtfulness. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then the woman turned to Berne. And she said, “Look at you, Mum. You’re doing such a good job. It must be very challenging to raise the three children. You are so great.” Berne felt very grateful to her warm words, tears in her eyes. She brightened up at her words of encouragement. The woman brought out a box of chocolates from her bag and gave them to the children, who were excited at the sweets. Berne was too moved to say anything to express her gratitude. Then the woman gently patted on Berne’s shoulder, gave them one last smile, and left on the street. Nearly 10 years later, Berne is still moved by the woman’s thoughtfulness. And she has often recalled it with friends and family. If she could speak to the woman now, this is what she would say, “Thank you for seeing all of us. And thank you for seeing me. Me, someone who wasn’t often seen during these early days, and someone who was sometimes feeling pretty invisible. And I have never forgotten it.” Now her children have grown up, and her life has become better than before. When Berne meets other women struggling to get out with kids, she often says some warm words to them, just like what the older woman talked to her. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了Emma Carlson Berne作为一位有三个孩子的母亲，在带孩子外出就餐时遇到了挑战。在餐厅里，她努力照顾婴儿，同时担心其他孩子的行为，感到无助和沮丧。然而，一位年长女士的出现给予了她意外的鼓励和肯定。这位女士不仅称赞了她的家庭美丽，还特别注意到了她的大孩子们，这让Berne感到温暖和感激。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“然后，那位女士转向Berne。”可知，第一段可描写那位女士对Berne的赞美以及Berne的感激。 ②由第二段首句内容“近10年过去了，Berne仍然被那位女士的体贴所感动。”可知，第二段可描写Berne多年后仍然心存感激以及那位女士的话对Berne产生的影响。 2.续写线索：赞美——感激——回忆——影响——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拿出：bring out/take out ②表达：express/convey ③回忆：recall/recollect ④轻拍：pat/tap 情绪类 ①兴奋的：excited/thrilled ②感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】[高分句型1]The woman brought out a box of chocolates from her bag and gave them to the children, who were excited at the sweets.（运用了who引导非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2]When Berne meets other women struggling to get out with kids, she often says some warm words to them, just like what the older woman talked to her.（运用了when引导时间状语从句和what引导宾语从句） 1～5 ABAAC 6～10 ACBCB 11～15 ABCAB 16～20 CCABA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024～2025学年高三2月测评(福建) 英语 全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3．选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑;非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答;字体工整，笔迹清楚。 4．考试结束后，请将试卷和答题卡一并上交。 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?

But others are now getting to see his medical skills as he often goes door-to-door to serve patients. The 34-year-old Vázquez is still living out his love of music. He also believes he is helping those in need and bringing attention to a health crisis in Puerto Rico. The US territory is currently facing power outages as well as a shortage of medical professionals. Many doctors and other workers have gone to the US mainland seeking better pay. The problem is expected to get worse in the coming years. Vázquez travels from the capital, San Juan, to rural areas of the island at least once a week. During these trips, he seeks to treat communities struggling from the combined effects of hurricanes, earthquakes and a weak economy. When not working as a doctor, Vázquez produces and performs music that brings attention to issues including social inequality, poverty and gun violence. In one song, he brings up the territory’s problems with violence. “A bullet is flying, lost like a child,” he raps, “the wind caresses it, seeks to make news, falling into a skull, without any kind of justice.” The rap song, in English, is called Bullets Cry. Vázquez was born in the Bronx area of New York City. But he moved with his family to the town of Ponce, Puerto Rico. Later, he went to Pennsylvania, and then he returned to Bayamón, Puerto Rico. It was there that Vázquez studied medicine. He became a doctor in 2015. He became a household name as a rapper for a younger generation in Latin Americs in 2018．The single that made Vázquez a star was called What Is Your Plan? He worked with Puerto Rican. musician Bad Bunny and reggaeton binger Nejo on the song. In 2020, he decided to start working in medicine again. Vázquez worked full-time at a hospital in Ponce for a year. Then, as a general doctor, he treated patients of all ages. Vázquez noted that some doctors questioned his medical abilities at first, since he had spent years performing as a rapper. But after a short time, he said, “Everybody knew that this wasn’t a joke for me, and that I’m really good at what I do.” 4. Why is Puerto Rico lacking medical professionals at present? A. Because it is a disaster area. B. Because there are not enough patients. C. Because there is violence in this area. D. Because of low salary and benefits. 5. Where did Vázquez ultimately obtain his medical qualification? A. In San Juan. B. In Pennsylvania. C. In Ponce. D. In Bayamón. 6. How did Vázquez become famous? A. By creating Bullets Cry. B. By treating various types of patients. C. By paying attention to various social issues. D. By cooperating with others on What Is Your Plan. 7. Which of the following can best describe Vázquez? A. Humorous. B. Responsible. C. Humble. D. Optimistic. C Currently many people around the world are working on ways of removing carbon from the air and storing it. This is often called Direct Air Capture (DAC). DAC technology is still being developed. But normally during the process, air is pulled across a material that can remove CO2 from it. One common material is limestone (石灰石). Later, the material is heated to carefully release the CO2 so it can be stored safely underground. But the current methods of doing this are costly and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2. COF-999, the new material created by scientists at UC Berkeley, is a different story. To test COF-999, the scientists filled a small tube (about as big as a drinking straw) with the powder (粉末). They then piped air from outside their lab through the tube for 20 days. Though there was CO2 in the air outside, the air that came out of the tube had no carbon dioxide at all. The discovery was exciting for the scientists. “I see the solution to the climate problem right there, in our hands,” said one of the scientists, Dr. Omar Yaghi. COF-999 captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside. To get COF-999 to release the carbon, it just needs to be heated to around 140℉ (60℃). That’s much cooler than most other DAC materials, meaning it will take less energy to collect the CO2. The materials needed to make COF-999 don’t cost much and they can be reused thousands of times. The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now. The next big challenge is figuring out how to use COF-999 in a direct air capture system. The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years. 8. What does the author say about current DAC technology? A. It needs little energy to operate. B. It is expensive and inefficient. C. It has been widely adopted worldwide. D. It uses advanced technology to be updated. 9. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on? A. The advantages of COF-999. B. The process of testing COF-999. C. The future applications of COF-999. D. The cost of producing COF-999. 10. What can be inferred about the current state of COF-999 technology? A. It is still under development. B. It is already used in DAC systems. C. Its materials can be only used twice. D. It needs no energy to release captured CO2. 11. What do the researchers think of COF-999? A. Supernatural. B. Inefficient. C. Promising. D. Impractical. D Scientists in Tanzania have trained rats to help detect illegal wildlife products being smuggled (走私) out of the country. The rats have learned to recognize the smell of these items, and can alert their handlers when they find them. The programme is still being tested, but the method could help protect some endangered animals. People who smuggle the animal products often hide them in tricky ways. They might paint an elephant tusk black or try to make pangolin scales look like candy or chocolate. They might hide the products in a false bottom in a box. Often, they try to cover the smell of these items with other things that have strong smells, such as coffee. Sadly, many of the countries these animal products come from are poor, so there’s not a lot of money to spend on catching the criminals. A group called APOPO thinks that African giant pouched rats might be able to help. These rats are clever. They learn quickly, and have a strong sense of smell. In the past, these rats were used to find land mines, sniff (嗅) out diseases, and help search for people after earthquakes. The rats are trained using food rewards. They are first taught to stick their noses into a hole. Next, the scientists train them to identify certain smells. Finally, the rats are taught about smells they should ignore — smells that might be used to cover up the smell of the wildlife. When the rats are working, they wear special vests. If the rat detects one of the smells it’s looking for, it grabs a little ball on its vest and pulls on it. This action sets off a beeping sound so that the rat’s handlers can come to investigate. Last year, the rats were tested at the Dar es Salaam seaport in Tanzania, a busy international port. The scientists had hidden illegal wildlife products in several containers. The rats were able to locate over 83% of the hidden items, even when there were other smells to cover up the target smells. 12. What does the underlined word “alert” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Confuse. B. Observe. C. Sense. D. Signal. 13. What does Paragraph 2 imply? A. Stopping illegal wildlife trade is hard. B. Animal products enjoy great popularity. C. Endangered animals are saved in tricky ways. D. Smugglers are from underdeveloped countries. 14. What does Paragraph 4 intend to show? A. The effectiveness of rats in detecting drugs. B. The types of illegal wildlife products smuggled. C. The step-by-step process of how rats are trained. D. The challenges faced by handlers during training. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. New Techniques in Wildlife Protection B. Rats Trained to Detect Wildlife Smuggling C. Training Animals for Conservation Efforts D. The Importance of Detecting Illegal Wildlife Trade 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。 A painting created by a robot named Ai-Da was sold at an art auction (拍卖) last Thursday for $1.08 million.

She loved her role as a mother, but she often felt consumed by it, like her life would never return to normal. One day, when her baby was about three months old, she decided that her whole family — her husband, her two young boys and her new baby boy — should get out of the house and go to a restaurant. They tumbled out of the car, ready with a diaper (尿布) bag, books for the kids to read, a seat for the baby and bags of snacks. As soon as they stepped onto the curb, her baby was ready to nurse again, and Berne knew she had to get inside. “I was already feeling pretty shaky,” she recalled. “So we all pile into the restaurant. We’re very messy; we’re very loud.” Her baby thrashed (剧烈扭动) around as she tried to nurse him under a blanket and she worried he was about to cry. Berne began to feel hopeless. “I was feeling a little teary-eyed because, although we were doing it, this was really hard.” A short time later, her unsung hero appeared: an older woman, who reminded Berne of her own mum. This woman came up and stood there and looked at them. And Berne was sort of preparing that she was gonna say how cute the baby was. Instead, the woman took them all in. She said admiringly, “What a beautiful family.” Then she looked at Berne’s two young boys, ages 6 and 3, sitting quietly on Berne’s side of the table. And she said, “It’s not easy to sit at a table for a long time.” The woman saw her older children in a way few people seemed to, now that they were no longer in the infant (婴儿) stage. “Nobody ever noticed them anymore,” Berne recalled. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then the woman turned to Berne. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nearly 10 years later, Berne is still moved by the woman’s thoughtfulness. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1～5 ABAAC 6～10 ACBCB 11～15 ABCAB 16～20 CCABA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
