The project is all about nature becoming a recognized artist in music. M: Nature as an artist? How does that work? W: It’s pretty cool, actually. People call nature “the greatest artist of all time”, because nature’s sounds, like the sounds of waves and winds, are being credited on music tracks. M: Like bird noises in Blackbird or the sound of real rain in November Rain? W: Exactly! And recently, American singer Ariana Grande has used the noises of crickets in her song Positions. Now the idea of this new project is to recognize nature as a contributing artist on these tracks, in listings on streaming platforms like Spotify. M: That’s innovative. So, what is the money earned by natural sounds used for? W: All the money goes to environmental charities. Bands like London Grammar and Ellie Goulding are already on board. M: That’s amazing. It’s like giving back to the source of inspiration. W: Yes. The project is expected to raise $40 million in the first four years. Gabriel Smales, the director of Sounds Right, said, “The dream is that any artist who’s interested in cooperating with nature is able to visit our website, download nature samples and tag nature on their music.” M: Wow! That sounds brilliant! 听下面一段较长对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 14. How did Lou Yuqian feel about the course? A. Satisfied. B. Anxious. C. Disappointed. 15.

What is an important reason parents don’t allow children to use social media? A. They might be addicted to online chatting. B. They might face the stress of social comparison. C. They might be cheated by bad guys online. 19. What can parents do to help children use social media in the right way? A. Discuss online behavior with children regularly. B.

Unfavorable. 【答案】18. C 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【原文】M: Hello, everyone. Today, I want to discuss a question that many people are talking about: Should children be allowed to use social media? There are a lot of concerns about this question. For example, social media can be risky. Kids might meet people online who aren’t who they actually are. A friendly chat online could be a trick by someone with bad intentions. This is a real danger and a big reason why some parents don’t think children should use social media. However, social media can be a useful tool when used properly. We need to think about how children are taught to use social media. The key is to teach children the right way to use it. Parents should consider guidance and education. For example, teaching children not to share personal information with strangers online can help them stay safe. By having regular conversations about online behavior, parents can help their kids avoid common tricks. Social media can offer great opportunities for learning and growth. It can help children connect with others who share their interests or goals. For instance, a child interested in science might join online groups that discuss science projects and ideas. In conclusion, instead of banning social media, we should focus on teaching kids to use it safely and productively. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分40分)第一节(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Whether you are hoping to relax or you are looking forward to staying active in vacation, seeking out great hikes is a good idea. If you are planning a trip to southern California, or you live in San Diego, now it is time to search for new hiking trails (路线). Here are some of the most popular hikes in San Diego. Cuyamaca Peak (顶峰) The peak is in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, and you’ll see plenty of snow-capped trees so it’s gonna be very cold. There are 37 trails in the state park, but you’ll want to stick to Azalea Glen Loop. It’s a difficult seven-mile hike that will bring you right to Cuyamaca Peak. Cedar Greek Falls For this hike, you’ll hike from the Cedar Creek Falls to the Devil’s Punch Bowl, which is a pool at the base of Cedar Creek Falls. It can really heat up in summer, and it is hard to hike, so be sure to pack lots of water and protein-filled snacks. Swami’s Beach Take the trail from Swami’s Beach to Cardiff Beach and you will experience impressive ocean views and the smooth sound of waves crashing onto the sand. As an easy out-and-back hike, the path is accessible (可进入的) from Swami’s Beach and is about three miles in total. Cowles Mountain It is well known that Cowles Mountain is the highest point in San Diego — so it’s worth visiting for the fact that you can see Mexico from the peak. The three-mile hike is quite difficult. If you are willing to wake up before the sun, Cowles Mountain is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise. It’s one of San Diego’s most popular hikes, so starting early might also help avoid the crowds. 21. What do you need to take if you choose the Cuyamaca Peak? A. A map. B. A warm coat. C. Food and water. D. An umbrella. 22. What can you see if you choose to Swami’s Beach? A. An impressive pool. B. Trees covered with snow. C. Incredible ocean views. D. An overview of Mexico. 23. Which hiking trail will you choose if you want to see beautiful sunrise? A. Cedar Greek Falls. B. Cuyamaca Peak. C. Swami’s Beach. D. Cowles Mountain. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了圣地亚哥一些最受欢迎的徒步路线。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中Cuyamaca Peak部分的“The peak is in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, and you’ll see plenty of snow-capped trees so it’s gonna be very cold.(这座顶峰位于库亚马卡牧场州立公园，你会看到许多被雪覆盖的树木，天气将会非常寒冷)”可知，选择Cuyamaca Peak需要带暖和的大衣。故选B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中Swami’s Beach 部分的“Take the trail from Swami’s Beach to Cardiff Beach and you will experience impressive ocean views and the smooth sound of waves crashing onto the sand.(从斯瓦米海滩走到卡迪夫海滩，你会体验到令人印象深刻的海景和海浪拍打沙滩的声音)”可知，选择Swami’s Beach徒步路线会看到令人惊叹的海景。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中Cowles Mountain部分的“If you are willing to wake up before the sun, Cowles Mountain is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise. (如果你愿意在太阳升起前醒来，考尔斯山是一个观赏日出的美丽地点)”可知，想要看日出，应该选Cowles Mountain。故选 D项。 B The Government’s sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown. First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity (肥胖). It is believed that today’s children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease. Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half this amount. At present it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports. It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers (制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers’ efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content. However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year. Today’s figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities (设施) and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part. 24. Why was the sugar tax introduced? A. To collect money for schools. B. To improve the quality of drinks. C. To protect children’s health. D. To encourage research in education. 25. How did some drinks companies respond to the sugar tax? A. They turned to overseas markets. B. They raised the prices of their products. C. They cut down on their production. D. They reduced their products’ sugar content. 26. From which of the following is the sugar tax collected? A. Most alcoholic drinks. B. Milk-based drinks. C. Fruit juices. D. Classic Coke. 27. What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy? A. It is a short-sighted decision. B. It is a success story. C. It benefits manufacturers. D. It upsets customers. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国政府对软饮料征收的糖税来解决儿童以及青少年的健康问题，同时该收入用于学校体育。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity.(该税于2016年4月首次宣布，适用于每100毫升含糖超过5g的软饮料，旨在帮助减少儿童肥胖)”可知，征收糖税的目的是帮助儿童减少肥胖，保护儿童健康。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers so they can avoid paying the tax.(此前，制造商已经降低了商店中销售的超过一半的软饮料的含糖量，以避免纳税)”可知，一些饮料公司通过降低了产品的含糖量来避税。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.(然而，一些高糖品牌，如经典可口可乐，已经接受了糖税，并拒绝改变，因为担心会惹恼消费者。果汁、以牛奶为原料的饮料和大多数酒精饮料是免税的，每年生产不到100万升的小公司也是免税的)”可知，糖税主要来自经典可口可乐这些高糖品牌。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Today’s figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities and healthier eating in schools.(根据一位政府官员的说法，今天的数据显示了糖税的积极影响，它为学校的体育设施和健康饮食筹集了数百万英镑)”可知，糖税政策带来了积极影响。由此推知，糖税政策的实施是一个成功的政策。故选B项。 【点睛】 C My teacher held up a piece of broken glass and asked “Who broke this window?” Thirty boys tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher may have found out. She seldom became angry, but she was this time. “Oh,” I thought. I was the one who broke the window. But I didn’t mean to do it. Actually, it was caused by a naughty throw of a baseball. If I admitted guilt, I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? I didn’t even get pocket money. “My father is going to be extremely angry.” I thought. I didn’t want to raise my hand, but some force much stronger pulled it upward. I told the truth. “I did it.” It was hard enough to say what I had. My teacher took down a book from one of our library shelves and I knew my teacher had never struck a student, but I feared she was going to start with me. “I know how you like birds,” she said as she stood looking down at my guilty face. “Here is a field guide about birds. It is yours now. It’s time we got a new one for the school. You will not be punished as long as you remember that I am not rewarding you for your misdeed, I am rewarding you for your honesty.” I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my own bird field guide — the very one that I had been saving money to buy. What my teacher taught me that day is about a lesson, which remains in my heart every day, and I will appreciate it forever. 28. From the story, we can learn that the boy _____. A. didn’t break the window on purpose B. lacked the strength to admit his guilt C. tried to discover who broke the window D. knew what the teacher would find out 29. The boy thought the following would happen EXCEPT that________ if he admitted guilt. A. He would be punished by the teacher B. He would make his father angry C. He would pay for the broken window D. He would get a bird field guide 30. Which of the following best describes the changes in the boy’s feelings? A. Afraid — Surprised — Thankful. B. Frightened — Amazed — Proud. C. Regretful — Guilty — Excited. D. Nervous — Afraid — Satisfied. 31. Which of the following is the best title of this text? A. Every coin has two sides. B. Honesty is the best policy. C. Bad luck never comes alone. D. It’s never too late to be careful. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个男孩无意打破了窗户，本以为闯祸会受到老师的惩罚，结果因为诚实承认过错，老师奖励了他最想要的观鸟指南，男孩从此明白要永远做一个诚实的人。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I was the one who broke the window. But I didn’t mean to do it.（我是那个打破窗户的人。但我不是故意这样做的）”可知，是男孩打破的窗户，但他并不是故意打破窗户的。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? I didn’t even get pocket money. My father is going to be extremely angry. (我怎么能支付起维修这样的大窗户的费用？我甚至都没有零用钱。我父亲会非常生气的)”以及第四段的“I knew my teacher had never struck a student, but I feared she was going to start with me. (我知道老师从来不打学生，但我担心她会从我开始）”可知，如果男孩承认了过错，他想自己可能会赔偿打破的窗户、让父亲生气以及被老师惩罚，但是他没有想过会得到一本观鸟指南。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第2题的分析可知，男孩担心自己承认了过错会被要求赔偿打破的窗户、让父亲生气和被老师惩罚，因此男孩内心当时感觉到的是“恐惧”；根据倒数第二段的“I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my own bird field guide — the very one that I had been saving money to buy.（我简直不敢相信!我没有受到惩罚，我有了自己的观鸟指南，它就是我一直攒钱想买的）”可知，男孩得知因为自己的诚实老师将观鸟指南送给了自己，他感到非常惊讶，不敢相信，即“惊讶”；根据最后一段的“What my teacher taught me that day is about a lesson, which remains in my heart every day, and I will appreciate it forever.（那天老师教给我的是一堂课，每天都留在我心里，我会永远感激）”可知，男孩最后非常感谢老师的这种教育方式，即“感激”。因此男孩的感情变化路线是“害怕——惊讶——感恩”。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“What my teacher taught me that day is about a lesson, which remains in my heart every day, and I will appreciate it forever.（那天老师教给我的是一堂课，每天都留在我心里，我会永远感激）”可知，男孩的老师教给他要做诚实的人，这对男孩的影响很大。B项“诚实为上策”符合文意，可以作为标题。故选B。 D Sometimes, what my seven-year-old tabby cat Ophelia wants is obvious. Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery. That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs. When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing. The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy. The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips. The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”. Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University. 32. How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners? A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled. B. By getting cats rid of starvation. C. By filling the empty food bowls. D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows. 33. What can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Users think the app very helpful. B. Users can help to promote the app. C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate. D. The program has analyzed billions of meows. 34. What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps? A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative. 35. What is the purpose of the the text? A. To comment on two apps. B. To compare two similar apps. C. To introduce the new technology. D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种可以解读猫的语言，了解猫的需求，帮助猫的主人与其交流的新的应用程序，并提到了另一个相似技术的训练宠物与人类交流的程序，旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs.(他们是MeowTalk应用程序的幕后推手，该应用程序旨在“为猫主人提供最好的工具”，帮助他们理解宠物的需求。)”可知，Akvelon的计算机科学家们是通过帮助猫主人了解猫的需求，解开猫叫的奥秘来帮助猫主人的。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model.(用户可以评价MeowTalk翻译的准确性，这进一步改进了计算机模型。)”可知，用户的反馈可以帮助改进和提升这款应用程序。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal.(猫的行为学家和交流专家Charlotte de Mouzon不相信这些产品的准确性，但加强你和你的猫的关系总是一个明智的目标。)”可知，Charlotte虽然认为应该加强猫主人和猫之间的关系，但他不相信这种应用程序，对此持怀疑态度。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need;(这款应用是一套不断扩展的技术的一部分，旨在帮助我们与毛茸茸的朋友交流。另一个是FluentPet，它训练你的宠物按下按钮来表达需求；)”和文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了一款能够帮助人类了解宠物需要的应用程序，以及另一个相似技术的应用程序，旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。故选C。 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。 How to love your parents It is well said that family is the kingdom of father, the world of mother and the paradise (天堂) of children. However, do you really know what each letter of the word “family” stands for? Obviously, F stands for Father; A is and; M means mother; I, L and Y are short for “I Love You”! Now, it’s quite easy for you to be aware how to deal with the tensions between you and your parents. _____36_____ However, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who you are. Here are some ways to love your parents. _____37_____ A gentle “good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world. Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for when you’re off on your own. It’s OK to get angry but angry actions don’t help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend. ______38______ Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through a hard time when you don’t get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it’s cold, raining, snowing or too hot. Understand that parents are human beings who will make mistakes as well. ______39______ Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents? Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or going somewhere with them. _____40_____ Listen to their old stories, which might help you find they are your tutors in this way or another. A. Forgiveness is the key. B. Tell them you love them every morning. C. Parents will in turn express their love to you. D. After this, share your feelings with your parents. E. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can. F. Please remember parents are as important as friends. G. You may think that your parents are mean-spirited at times. 【答案】36. G 37. B 38. D 39. A 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助读者更好地爱自己的父母。 【36题详解】 根据下文“However, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who you are.(然而，爱你的父母是生活中正常而充实的一部分。你爱他们，因为他们创造了你，养育了你，在某种程度上，他们是你的来源。)”中的“however”可判断，空处表达的内容和下文你应该爱父母之间存在转折关系。选项G“You may think that your parents are mean-spirited at times.

(在这之后，和你的父母分享你的感受。)”内容上与上文一致，建议读者在生气的时候可以先写下感受，然后再和父母分享感受；选项D中的“after this”也和上文保持一致性。故选D。 【39题详解】 根据空前“Understand that parents are human beings who will make mistakes as well.(要明白父母也是人，他们也会犯错误。)”可知，作者觉得父母犯错是正常的；而根据下文“Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents?

They received a lot of scolding from their neighbours because they made them restless. However, they still went their own way. One day, they were hitting a little bird when one of the stones rebounded (反弹), almost hitting an old man. “Oh boys, boys, don’t throw stones at that poor bird. I am afraid the stone will rebound, and hurt you as long as you live!” “Rebound! I don’t understand you!” said Jack. “Well come and I will tell you a true story. ”Here is the story that the old man told them. My dear boys, fifty years ago, I was a boy like you. I used to throw stones until I became very accurate. One day I went to work for an aged couple. They were very kind to everybody and everything. Few had so many swallows (燕子) making their nests under the roofs of their houses. The birds seemed to love the couple. For seven years a bird had come, after the long winter was over, and built her nest in the same place, and raised her young ones there. She and her mate had just returned when I went there to work, and the couple welcomed them heartily. The bird jumped about, as if glad to be back. During the day, I thought I would try my skill upon her. She sat upon a post near the spot where she was to build her nest, and looked at me trustfully, as much as to say, “You won’t hurt me? ”I found a nice stone, and I threw it with my greatest skill. It struck the bird on the head and she dropped dead! I was sorry the moment I saw her fall. But the deed was done. I said nothing to the old couple about it. But one of their grandchildren told them what I had done. Though the couple never said a word to me, I knew that they were deeply saddened by my cruelty. I could never look at them in the face afterwards. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Oh, I should have told them how sorry I was! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After listening to this story, Jack and his friends fell silent. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Oh, I should have told them how sorry I was! They have been dead many years, and so has the poor bird; but don’t you see how that stone rebounded, and hit me? How much the memory of it has hurt me! I would pay a great deal today if I could release from my present feeling! For fifty years I have remembered it. I have never spoken of it before; but if what my words will prevent you from throwing a stone that may rebound, I will be happy. After listening to this story, Jack and his friends fell silent. Obviously, they were deeply moved by this true story. Jack and his little friend apologized to the old man. They continued to talk for a long time. They seemed to have matured and grown up all of a sudden. Later, Jack and his friends occasionally played by throwing stones, but they were very careful not to harm the cute little animals around them, and they also stayed away from the community, no longer disturbing the lives of their neighbours. They put more energy into helping the elderly around them and received their praise. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了一位老人通过分享自己年轻时的经历，来告诫一群热衷于扔石子的少年不要伤害无辜的生命，尤其是像小鸟这样信任人类的生物。老人年轻时因为向一只正在筑巢的燕子扔石子并导致其死亡，而深感内疚和懊悔，同时也感受到了被伤害者的家庭深深的悲伤和失望。这一经历让老人意识到自己的行为对他人造成的伤害是无法弥补的，因此他希望少年们能从中吸取教训，不要重蹈覆辙。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“哦，我应该告诉他们我是多么抱歉！”可知，第一段可描写老人对自己的行为感到后悔并希望孩子们不要重蹈覆辙。 ②由第二段首句内容“听了这个故事，杰克和他的朋友们都沉默了。”可知，第二段可描写Jack和朋友们听完老人的故事后的感悟以及对他们的影响。 2.续写线索：老人后悔——劝说孩子们——孩子们被感动——注意自己的行为——帮助老人 3.词汇激活 行为类 阻止某人做某事：prevent sb from doing sth/keep sb from doing sth 帮助：help/assist 道歉：apologize/make an apology 情绪类 高兴的：happy/delighted 感动的：moved/touched 【点睛】[高分句型1]They have been dead many years, and so has the poor bird; but don’t you see how that stone rebounded, and hit me?（运用了how引导宾语从句） [高分句型2]They put more energy into helping the elderly around them and received their praise.（运用了动名词作宾语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025高一下学期4月英语月考试题 第一部分:听力(共两节，20小题，每题1.5，满分30分） 第一节 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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What are the speakers probably doing now?

If you are planning a trip to southern California, or you live in San Diego, now it is time to search for new hiking trails (路线). Here are some of the most popular hikes in San Diego. Cuyamaca Peak (顶峰) The peak is in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, and you’ll see plenty of snow-capped trees so it’s gonna be very cold. There are 37 trails in the state park, but you’ll want to stick to Azalea Glen Loop. It’s a difficult seven-mile hike that will bring you right to Cuyamaca Peak. Cedar Greek Falls For this hike, you’ll hike from the Cedar Creek Falls to the Devil’s Punch Bowl, which is a pool at the base of Cedar Creek Falls. It can really heat up in summer, and it is hard to hike, so be sure to pack lots of water and protein-filled snacks. Swami’s Beach Take the trail from Swami’s Beach to Cardiff Beach and you will experience impressive ocean views and the smooth sound of waves crashing onto the sand. As an easy out-and-back hike, the path is accessible (可进入的) from Swami’s Beach and is about three miles in total. Cowles Mountain It is well known that Cowles Mountain is the highest point in San Diego — so it’s worth visiting for the fact that you can see Mexico from the peak. The three-mile hike is quite difficult. If you are willing to wake up before the sun, Cowles Mountain is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise. It’s one of San Diego’s most popular hikes, so starting early might also help avoid the crowds. 21. What do you need to take if you choose the Cuyamaca Peak? A. A map. B. A warm coat. C. Food and water. D. An umbrella. 22. What can you see if you choose to Swami’s Beach? A. An impressive pool. B. Trees covered with snow. C. Incredible ocean views. D. An overview of Mexico. 23. Which hiking trail will you choose if you want to see beautiful sunrise? A. Cedar Greek Falls. B. Cuyamaca Peak. C. Swami’s Beach. D. Cowles Mountain. B The Government’s sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown. First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity (肥胖). It is believed that today’s children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease. Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half this amount. At present it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports. It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers (制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers’ efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content. However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.

C My teacher held up a piece of broken glass and asked, “Who broke this window?” Thirty boys tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher may have found out. She seldom became angry, but she was this time. “Oh,” I thought. I was the one who broke the window. But I didn’t mean to do it. Actually, it was caused by a naughty throw of a baseball. If I admitted guilt, I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? I didn’t even get pocket money. “My father is going to be extremely angry.” I thought. I didn’t want to raise my hand, but some force much stronger pulled it upward. I told the truth. “I did it.” It was hard enough to say what I had. My teacher took down a book from one of our library shelves and I knew my teacher had never struck a student, but I feared she was going to start with me. “I know how you like birds,” she said as she stood looking down at my guilty face. “Here is a field guide about birds. It is yours now. It’s time we got a new one for the school. You will not be punished as long as you remember that I am not rewarding you for your misdeed, I am rewarding you for your honesty.” I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my own bird field guide — the very one that I had been saving money to buy. What my teacher taught me that day is about a lesson, which remains in my heart every day, and I will appreciate it forever. 28. From the story, we can learn that the boy _____. A. didn’t break the window on purpose B. lacked the strength to admit his guilt C. tried to discover who broke the window D. knew what the teacher would find out 29.

Bad luck never comes alone. D. It’s never too late to be careful. D Sometimes, what my seven-year-old tabby cat Ophelia wants is obvious. Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery. That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs. When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing. The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy. The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips. The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”. Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University. 32. How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners? A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled. B. By getting cats rid of starvation. C. By filling the empty food bowls. D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows. 33. What can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Users think the app very helpful. B. Users can help to promote the app. C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate. D. The program has analyzed billions of meows. 34. What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps? A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative. 35. What is the purpose of the the text? A. To comment on two apps. B. To compare two similar apps. C. To introduce the new technology. D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners. 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。 How to love your parents It is well said that family is the kingdom of father, the world of mother and the paradise (天堂) of children.

They received a lot of scolding from their neighbours because they made them restless. However, they still went their own way. One day, they were hitting a little bird when one of the stones rebounded (反弹), almost hitting an old man. “Oh boys, boys, don’t throw stones at that poor bird. I am afraid the stone will rebound, and hurt you as long as you live!” “Rebound! I don’t understand you!” said Jack. “Well, come and I will tell you a true story. ”Here is the story that the old man told them. My dear boys, fifty years ago, I was a boy like you. I used to throw stones until I became very accurate. One day I went to work for an aged couple. They were very kind to everybody and everything. Few had so many swallows (燕子) making their nests under the roofs of their houses. The birds seemed to love the couple. For seven years a bird had come, after the long winter was over, and built her nest in the same place, and raised her young ones there. She and her mate had just returned when I went there to work, and the couple welcomed them heartily. The bird jumped about, as if glad to be back. During the day, I thought I would try my skill upon her. She sat upon a post near the spot where she was to build her nest, and looked at me trustfully, as much as to say, “You won’t hurt me? ”I found a nice stone, and I threw it with my greatest skill. It struck the bird on the head and she dropped dead! I was sorry the moment I saw her fall. But the deed was done. I said nothing to the old couple about it. But one of their grandchildren told them what I had done. Though the couple never said a word to me, I knew that they were deeply saddened by my cruelty. I could never look at them in the face afterwards. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Oh, I should have told them how sorry I was! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After listening to this story, Jack and his friends fell silent. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$英语听力模拟试题6，第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。We are almost at the top of the mountain.

For example, social media can be risky. Kids might meet people online who want who they actually are. A friendly chat online could be a trick by someone with bad intentions. This is a real danger and a big reason why some parents don't think children should use social media. However, social media can be a useful tool when used properly.
