Patient as I was,after about 15 minutes,my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take,I asked myself:"Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape?"Sure,I could have asked her,but something prevented me from doing so.Finally.seeing she seemed so content in her observation,I made up my mind not to mess with that Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored.The woman was still there.I decided to take the photo anyway And now when I look at it.I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting.The landscape. beautiful on its own,somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it. This photo,with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who"ruined"it,now hangs on a wall in my bedroom.What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured and frozen on some stranger's 第4页/共30页 可学科网命组卷网 bedroom wall?A bedroom,after all,is a very private space,in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized )In some ways,she lives in my house. Perhaps we all live in each other's spaces.Perhaps this is what photos are for:to remind us that we all appreciate beauty,and that we all share a common desire for pleasure,for connection,and for something that is greater than us.

However.even the most stable musical pattern can be changed by socio-cultural concemns,and these form the second contribution to our musical preferences.Music,probably from the very beginning of the existence of modern humans,has been used to bring people together in various kinds of activities,because it is really efficient at regulating (i)the bodily and emotional responses of large groups of participants.Whether you're into heavy metal,or hip hop,or jazz,your preferences are guided in part by your desire to be a member of some social circle. These two factors seem to suggest that musical preferences are formed unconsciously,without the listener being aware of it,but this is obviously not the case.Nothing is likely to be more important than our own subjective feeling at the time of listening.Especially today.with nearly unlimited access to all styles of music,we use music as a tool for regulating our emotions and moods.This is why when you want to study you might reach for something simple,without words.Or when you're trying to relax before bed you'll probably listen to something calming.They point to the fantastic power of music in our lives. 8.In writing paragraph 1.the author aims to A.present some examples B.make a comparison C.list a few reasons D.lead in the topic 9.According to paragraph 1,people's preferences for music are A.interesting and subjective B.personal and changeable C.unique and obvious D.unconscious and typical 10.What is the function of music in a group activity? A.It can make people familiar with a certain culture. B.It can make people calm down. C.It can bring people together. D.It can create specific mental patterns. 11.What could be inferred from paragraph 4? A.While reading,people are more likely to prefer rap music. B.Preferences for music are totally decided by uncontrolled factors C.Subjective feeling plays an important role in people's musical preferences. D.Musical preferences are formed unconsciously. 【答案】8.D9.B10.C11.C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了影响人们音乐偏好的三个因素。 第7页共30页 可学科网命组卷网 【8题详解】 推理判断题，根据第一段中“Yet despite such variety,there are three factors that I think are the main contributors. (然而，尽管有如此多的变化，但我认为有三个因素是主要原因。)”可知，作者在第一段引出了后文要讨论 的影响人们音乐偏好的三个因素这一话题。所以作者写第一段的目的是引出话题。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Our preference for this or that kind of music is obviously a subjective matter.It can also be highly unstable,changing not only during a lifetime,but even on a scale of months,or even days. 这种或那种音乐的偏好显然是一个主观问题。它也可能非常不稳定，不仅在一生中会发生变化，甚至在几 个月，甚至几天的时间里也会改变。)”可知，人们对音乐的偏好是个人的且多变的。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Music,probably from the very beginning of the existence of modern humans,has been used to bring people together in various kinds of activities.because it is really efficient at regulating() the bodily and emotional responses of large groups of participants.(音乐，可能从现代人类存在之初就被用于在 各种活动中把人们聚集在一起，因为它在调节大量参与者的身体和情感反应方面非常有效。)”可知，在集 体活动中音乐的作用是把人们聚集在一起。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断趣。根据第四段中“Nothing is likely to be more important than our own subjective feeling at the time of listening.(在听音乐的时候，没有什么比我们自己的主观感受更重要了。)”和“This is why when you want to study you might reach for something simple,without words.Or when you're trying to relax before bed you'll probably listen to something calming.(这就是为什么当你想学习的时候，你可能会选择一些简单的，没有文字 的东西。或者当你想在睡觉前放松的时候，你可能会听一些让你平静下来的音乐。)”可知，想学习的时候 人们会听简单的音乐，在想放松的时候会听一些让人平静的音乐，这说明主观感受在人们的音乐偏好中起 着重要作用。故选C项。 D The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical-but it's a real ability that some creatures have.A family of African fish known as Momyrids are weakly electric,and have special organs that can locate a nearby target,even when it's hiding in the mud.Scientists have now developed an artificial sensor system modelled on the ability of these fish. "We developed a new strategy for 3D motion positioning by electronic skin,bio-inspired by 'electric fish."" says Dr.Xinge Yu,an associate professor in the Department of Biomedical Eagineering at the City University of 第8页/共30页 可学科网命组卷网 Hong Kong.The team described their e-skin sensor in a paper published on November 14 in Nature The artificial sensor is multi-layered.One layer acts as a transmitter )which will generate an electric field once activated,and another layer acts as a receiver to detect both the direction and the distance to an object.A separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter.When an object comes within range,the electric field around the sensor is disrupted,which in turn can be detected by the receiver.This data is then processed by a microcontroller unit,which computes the position of the target object and sends that information to a smartphone or other devices A special biogel (is used in the sensor,which has the ability to transmit and receive electric signals from a pattern of microchannels on the surface.The end result is a sensor that is thin,soft and flexible,making it easy to adapt to irregular surfaces,such as the human body.In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning,the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors.This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection,transmission,and processing The researchers hope that this sensor could one day open up a new range of wearable technologies,including sensors for human-machine interaction and thin.flexible e-skin. 12.The first paragraph aims to show A.the special ability of African fish B.the inspiration for a new invention C.the big challenge of locating objects D.the reason for developing a sensor 13.What does the underlined word"disrupted"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.disturb. B.arrange. C.enhance. D.stabilize. 14.What is an advantage of the new sensor system? A.Its sensitivity to different stimulations B.Its adaptation to environmental changes. C.Its efficiency in achieving 3D positioning. D.Its speed in data collection and processing. 15.What is the best title for the text? A.Machine Detective"Wears"Flexible E-skin B.Bio-inspired Sensor"Feels"Without Touching C.E-Skin Sensor:The Future of Machine Learning D.Electric Fields:The Frontier of Object Detection 第9页/共30页 可学科网命组卷网 【答案】12.B13.A14.C15.B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了受非洲电鱼特殊能力启发，科学家开发出一种人造传感器系统， 阐述了其原理、优势及应用前景。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical-but it's a real ability that some creatures have.A family of African fish known as Momyrids are weakly electric,and have special organs that can locate a nearby target,even when it's hiding in the mud.Scientists have now developed an artificial sensor system modelled on the ability of these fish.(不用看或触摸就能探测到附 近物体的能力听起来可能很奇妙，但这是一些生物真正拥有的能力。一种名为电鱼的非洲鱼类带有微弱电 流，它们有特殊的器官，即使目标藏在泥里也能定位到附近的目标。科学家现在己经开发出一种模仿这些 鱼能力的人造传感器系统)”可知，第一段先介绍了非洲电的特殊能力，接着说明科学家基于此开发出人造 传感器系统，所以第一段旨在展示一项新发明的灵感来源。故选B项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。结合常识和划线词所在句“When an object comes within range,.the electric field around the sensor is disrupted,which in turn can be detected by the receiver.(当一个物体进入范围内时，传感器周围的电场被 disrupted,这反过来可以被接收器检测到)”中“be detected by the receiver”可推知，物体进入传感器范围时， 电场被干扰，才会有信号被接收器检测到。所以划线词意为“干扰，扰乱”，与“disturb”意思相近。故选 A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning,the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors.This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection,.transmission,.and processing(与传统的需要大量 传感器来实现空间定位的传感器系统相比，新系统只需几个传感器就能在三维空间中精确定位物体。这显 著降低了数据收集、传输和处理的功耗)”可知，新传感器系统的优势在于它在实现三维定位方面的效率高。 故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical-but it's a real ability that some creatures have.A family of African fish known as Momyrids are weakly electric,and have special organs that can locate a nearby target,even when it's hiding in the mud.Scientists 第10页/共30页学科网 组卷网 2023级高二下学期英语测试(一) 本试卷共12页,94小题,满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 第一部分听力(共15分 听下面5段材料,每段材料后有几个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项 每段对话或独白读两遍。 听第一段对话,回答第1-3题。 1.

After climbing up a hill for a panoramic (全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I asked myself: "Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape?"

Finally. seeing she seemed so content in her observation, I made up my mind not to mess with that Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway And now when I look at it. I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who "ruined" it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized (永存). In some wavs. she lives in my house Perhaps we all live in each other's spaces.

A Great Trip in Italy C. The Power of Photography D. An Unknown Stranger C Our preference for this or that kind of music is obviously a subjective matter. It can also be highly unstable changing not only during a lifetime, but even on a scale of months, or even days. Yet despite such variety. there are three factors that I think are the main contributors The first is how we were brought up, or the musical background which surrounded us in our formative years (性格形成时期). The kinds of music that we were exposed to when we were small helped to create very specific mental patterns However, even the most stable musical pattern can be changed by socio-cultural concerns. and these form the second contribution to our musical preferences. Music. probably from the very beginning of the existence of modern humans, has been used to bring people together in various kinds of activities, because it is really efficient at regulating (调 节) the bodily and emotional responses of large groups of participants. Whether you're into heavy metal, or hip hop, or jazz, your preferences are guided in part by your desire to be a member of some social circle These two factors seem to suggest that musical preferences are formed unconsciously, without the listener being aware of it, but this is obviously not the case. Nothing is likely to be more important than our own subjective feeling at the time of listening. Especially today, with nearly unlimited access to all styles of music, we use music as a tool for regulating our emotions and moods. This is why when you want to study you might reach for something simple, without words. Or when you're trying to relax before bed you'll probably listen to something calming. They point to the fantastic power of music in our lives 8. In writing paragraph 1. the author aims to A. present some examples B. make a comparison C. list a few reasons D. lead in the topic 9. According to paragraph 1. people's preferences for music are A. interesting and subjective B. personal and changeable 第5页/共13页 学科网 组卷网 C. unique and obvious D. unconscious and typical 10. What is the function of music in a group activity? A. It can make people familiar with a certain culture B. It can make people calm down C. It can bring people together D. It can create specific mental patterns 11. What could be inferred from paragraph 4? A. While reading, people are more likely to prefer rap music B. Preferences for music are totally decided by uncontrolled factors C. Subjective feeling plays an important role in people's musical preferences D. Musical preferences are formed unconsciously D The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical - but it's a real ability that some creatures have. A family of African fish known as Momvrids are weakly electric. and have special organs that can locate a nearby target, even when it's hiding in the mud. Scientists have now developed an artificial sensor svstem modelled on the ability of these fish “We developed a new strategy for 3D motion positioning by electronic skin, bio-inspired by 'electric fish." says Dr. Xinge Yu, an associate professor in the Department of Biomedical Eagineering at the City University of Hong Kong. The team described their e-skin sensor in a paper published on November 14 in Nature The artificial sensor is multi-lavered. One layer acts as a transmitter (发射器). which will generate an electric field once activated, and another layer acts as a receiver to detect both the direction and the distance to an object. A separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter. When an object comes within range, the electric field around the sensor is disrupted. which in turn can be detected by the receiver.

The end result is a sensor that is thin, soft and flexible, making it easy to adapt to irregular surfaces, such as the human body. In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning, the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors. This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection, transmission, and processing The researchers hope that this sensor could one day open up a new range of wearable technologies, including 第6页/共13页 学科网 组卷网 sensors for human-machine interaction and thin, flexible e-skin 12.
