Petrified Forest National Park Inst Petrified Forest National Park is now mapping self-guided hikes to its more remote destinations, in part to remind visitors that the parks are theirs to wander.

B Recently, the topic “Chinese people can eat such a sweet melon but can’t do without this grandma” has topped the hot search list. The grandma is 94-year-old Wu Mingzhu, called the “queen of melons”, a melon-growing expert and eminent academician. Among Wu Mingzhu’s classmates was Yuan Longping, who later became the “father of hybrid rice”. Wu Mingzhu was born in 1930 into a scholarly family in Wuhan city. After her graduation in 1953, she was assigned to work in Beijing. But Wu had already set her eyes on her long-awaited goal. “What I studied was the science of fruit and vegetables. I wanted to work in the fields not in an office,” said Wu. In 1955, Wu voluntarily went to work in Shanghai County, Turpan Basin, where working conditions were quite hard. She found that the Hami melon, a rare specialty fruit which was once common in the area, was in danger of becoming extinct if not properly cultivated (种植). Wu spent years visiting over 300 production teams, picking out 44 melon varieties. She overcame a variety of difficulties to produce particularly delicious melons in a scientific way, winning over the local farmers accustomed (习惯的) to folk cultivation methods. Then the promotion area covered most of Xinjiang’s main commodity (商品) areas, and a group of melon-rich villages appeared. From more than 60 years, Wu Mingzhu and her team has cultivated more than 30 varieties, brought the sweetness of melons to people, and promoted the melon series with Chinese characteristics and a complete breeding innovation system to the world. When first hearing her nickname of “a pearl in the Turpan Basin”, Wu said, “In Xinjiang, there are thousands of science and technology workers like me. They have worked hard for decades on the frontline of agriculture. I’m just one of the ordinary ones.” 9. What does the underlined word “eminent” mean in paragraph 1? A. Strict. B. Generous. C. Senior. D. Outstanding. 10. Why did Wu dislike the job in Beijing? A. She was attracted by Xinjiang’s fruit. B. She preferred to research in the fields. C. She wanted to go back to her hometown. D. She thought Beijing unsuitable for agriculture. 11. How did Wu persuade the locals to adopt her way of producing melons? A. By expanding the planting area. B. By sharing expert knowledge with them. C. By providing enough financial assistance. D. By developing high-quality melons scientifically. 12. Which of the following best describes Wu according to the last paragraph? A. Devoted B. Confident C. Promising D. Patient C In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gesture are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly follows his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a reaction! Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking (舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack. Cat owners also misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time. At some point you’ve probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly, avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning (打哈欠). A yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking — when there isn’t food around to bring about it — is another sign of threat. You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you’re away. But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety. Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners. 13. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take? A. It stretches its legs, yawning. B. It makes an eye contact with its owner. C. It licks its owner’s face with a soft tongue. D. It runs around the backyard, following its tail. 14. What do we learn about the gesture if a cat constantly kisses itself? A. It feels amused. B. It feels stressed. C. It feels angry. D. It feels tired. 15. When the dog sits for a long time without moving，it reveals ________. A. the dog is eagerly awaiting your return B. the dog displays a sign of tiredness C. the dog is extremely bored to play with you D. the dog displays a sign of embarrassment 16. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Pets: Lovely Animals B. Dogs: Odd gestures C. What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You D. What Should We Do With Our Pets D If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the list. But, in some cases, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing(诊断)illness. Also some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after all? British education expert, Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2027. He believes robots will do the main job of transferring(传递)information and teachers will be like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students’ faces ,movements and maybe even brain signals. Then they will transfer the information to each student. It’s not a popular opinion and it’s unlikely robots will ever have empathy(共情) and the ability to really connect with humans like another human can. One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there aren’t enough teachers and 9-16 percent of children under the age of 14 don’t go to school. Teachers all over the world are leaving because it is a difficult and lower-paid job and they feel overworked. That problem could be part solved by robots. Perhaps the question is not “ Will robots replace teachers?” but“How can robots help teachers?” Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work, including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best. 17. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. Drawing a conclusion. B. Giving an answer. C. Presenting an example.. D. Introducing the topic 18. What does Anthony Seldon think of robots in 2027? A. Robots can do most teaching. B Robots will work as assistants C. Robots can only transfer information. D. Robots will have empathy like humans. 19. Why are robot teachers necessary? A. Because robot teachers cost less. B. Because robot teachers teach better. C. Because there aren’t enough teachers. D. Because there are already robot doctors 20. How is a robot expected to help a teacher by the author? A. By answering emails. B. By marking homework. C. By reading students’ faces. D. By analyzing brain signals. 21. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Illness diagnosing B. Robot teachers C. Information transferring D.

Her mission, though seemingly simple, holds immense significance — socks, an often-overlooked necessity, are crucial for the well-being of those without a permanent roof over their heads. “You don’t fully appreciate their importance until you’re forced to go without them for an extended period,” Sidney remarks thoughtfully. This realization dawned upon her after learning about the pressing need for socks among the homeless community, highlighted by the nonprofit organization Hope the Mission. Inspired by this revelation, Sidney decided to team up with Hope the Mission to launch a campaign to collect socks for the homeless. Her ambitious target? A quarter of a million pairs — an astonishing number that would ensure every client at Hope the Mission receives clean socks for an entire year. “We’re nearly at 200,000 pairs, but we need a final push to reach our goal,” shares Rowan Vansleve, the CFO of Hope the Mission and Sidney’s proud father. Sidney credits her father as her biggest inspiration. “Without him, I wouldn’t have dreamed of doing this,” she admits gratefully. Rowan, equally as touched, responds, “I’m so proud to be her dad; she’s an extraordinary person.” To facilitate donations, Sidney has set up two convenient methods: contributors can either add to her Amazon wishlist or visit any of the 29 Starbucks locations listed on the Hope of the Valley website. “People can donate in various packs or even just a single pair,” Sidney explains. With the deadline for sock donations looming (迫近的) on December 27th, Sidney’s ambitions don’t stop there. She aims to make her mark in a different way — by breaking a Guinness World Record. 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。 Before distributing the socks, Sidney wrote a sentence “you are loved” on a note and attached it to each pair. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the report, donations poured in from all corners of the country. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 潮阳区2024-2025学年度第一学期高二级教学质量监测试卷 英语 本试卷共五部分，共10页，满分130分。考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、学校、班级、考生号填在答题卡上。 2．作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑，如需要改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案。答案不能答在试卷上。 3．非选择题必须用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡上各题目指定区域内相应的位置上;如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案;不准使用铅笔或涂改液，不按以上要求作答无效。 第一部分 情境对话单项选择(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分) 【1题答案】 【答案】A 【2题答案】 【答案】A 【3题答案】 【答案】B 【4题答案】 【答案】B 【5题答案】 【答案】D 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节 四篇阅读(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A 【6~8题答案】 【答案】6.

She believed this simple message could bring warmth and hope. “I want them to know that someone cares,” Sidney said. Her team packed the socks carefully, and volunteers handed them out at Hope the Mission. When receiving the socks that were neatly packed, recipients were deeply moved, expressing gratitude. After hearing about her deeds, a local news reporter interviewed her. After the report, donations flooded in from across the country. News of Sidney’s campaign spread widely, garnering support from social media, celebrities, schools, and businesses. By the deadline, the campaign had collected over 250,000 pairs of socks, not only meeting but exceeding the initial target, but also breaking a Guinness World Record. Sidney’s efforts did not go unnoticed; she received recognition from local government officials and national organizations, further amplifying her message of kindness and support for the homeless community. Sidney’s initiative not only transformed the lives of countless individuals but also inspired a new generation to take action and make a difference in their communities. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
