Two new adult learners at Xi’ an Jiaotong-Liverpool University(XJTLU) in Suzhou say despite the challenges of returning to school after years away, they believe it’ll be worth it. Both plan to strengthen their professional skills with master’s degrees from XJTLU’s International Business School Suzhou. While Hamed Azimidizaj has become an experienced engineer and manager over nearly 15years in the car industry, he wants to broaden his knowledge. Originally from Iran, he’s lived in China for five years. “Now I see that experience alone is not enough. You need to bring knowledge to the industry in order to make improvements, and I’m seeking to learn more so that I can make a change,” he says. Qin Qian, Marketing Manager at the Taicang branch of a German environmental testing equipment company, is responsible for driving new business development strategies. She hopes to build a system to expand the company’s business with new markets in China. “In today’s competitive business world, just keeping up with rapid technological advances is not enough,” she says. “How can my team make the company more competitive? How can we successfully break into new markets? I’ve been thinking about these questions for two years, and eventually I came to believe the best way is to further my studies in this field.” For students considering further study, Azimidizaj says Suzhou provides a comfortable environment, with its mix of modern facilities and ancient culture. Qian advises others thinking about going back to school to make careful decisions and then pursue goals wholeheartedly. “Sometimes, choice is more important than effort. Making good decisions matters because mistakes are expensive,” says Qian. “But once you’ve decided, you should go after it with everything you’ve got. Life is too short to wait.” 4. What do Azimidizaj and Qian plan to do at XJTLU? A. Teach professional skills. B. Conduct engineering research. C. Enhance their career capabilities. D. Expand their social connections. 5.

What can we learn from Qian’s words? A. Think twice before you act. B. Opportunity knocks but once. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. Actions speak louder than words. C Indoor gardening offers all the same benefits as a garden in the ground outside. Namely, fresh food and a low environmental impact. But not everyone has the natural space for a garden, which is where indoor planting comes in for the win. While there are many systems and techniques you can apply inside the home, PICO stands out as a flexible option that you can place anywhere and still achieve growing success. Most indoor plants need to be located near a window for light. Often this means taking up limited tabletop or bookcase space. PICO is different because, while setting it on a tabletop is an option, it can also be fixed to many other surfaces, such as a refrigerator or desk, wall, windows, mirrors, etc. There are also three color options to match nearly any decoration. The unit comes fully put together. All you have to do is add a bit of soil and a few of your favorite seeds. Watering is stable and consistent with a water tank and easy-fill opening. A transparent (透明的) window in the front allows you to easily see when more water is needed, typically about once each week. From there, the system automatically draws water from the tank through the soil, using an on-demand system that refills water as the soil dries out. With location and watering figured out, the last major component for successful indoor growth is proper lighting. PICO is equipped with a multi-spectrum (多光谱) growing light that conveniently extends from the planter design. As your plant grows, the light extends up to one foot higher for consistent light. While PICO is not intended to provide large quantities of food, its automatic functions and flexible placement make it an option for growing readily available vegetables and visually pleasing mini flowers. PICO is currently trending on a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that will close on May 17th. To support this innovative indoor gardening solution, interested customers can back the project now. Shipments are expected to begin immediately after the campaign concludes. 8. What distinguishes PICO from other indoor gardening systems? A. It allows for soilless growing. B. It offers large-quantity production. C. It permits various positioning options. D. It guarantees a low environmental impact. 9. What information is provided by PICO’s front window? A. Seed condition. B. Water-filling time. C. Plant-growth rate. D. Soil nutrient amount. 10. What is special about PICO’s lighting system? A. It can change colors. B. It depends on the sun. C. It can be adjusted in height. D. It is removable from the planter. 11. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To show how to use PICO. B. To present PICO’s special features. C. To attract buyers for a new product. D. To explain indoor gardening’s popularity. D If walking is part of your exercise routine, you might want to try stopping to smell the roses once in a while along your route, a new study suggests. Researchers in Italy found short periods of walking might actually give your metabolism (新陈代谢) more of a workout than walking the same distance without a break. Francesco Luciano, the lead researcher, and his team explain that using long, continuous walking to calculate energy consumption “significantly diminishes the metabolic cost of short-duration walks.” This is meaningful not only for people who are trying to burn off more of their energy, but also for people who might be trying to conserve it. This may also be important information for programs designed to help prevent people losing weight while still getting the benefits of exercise, like eating disorder treatment programs. It’s important to note these findings are based on a pretty small sample size of just 10healthy participants — 5 male, 5 female — all around 27 years of age, so the results may not be representative of a broader population. For the study, each participant walked on a stair climber for 10, 30, 60, 90, and 240seconds, and in a separate experiment, walked for those same periods on a treadmill (跑步机).The research team measured how much oxygen participants used, on average, when they were at rest before the experiments, and then again after the walking. Oxygen consumption is often used to measure how much energy is being used during exercise. “Our findings show that the time-averaged oxygen consumption and metabolic cost are greater for shorter than longer walks,” the researchers report. During 30-second walks, the participants consumed 20-60 percent more oxygen than the standard estimates for walking exercise, which are based on long, continuous walking. 12 What did the new study find about walking? A. Long walks would bring greater metabolic cost. B. Stops during walks may boost the calorie burn. C. Fast walking might be helpful for losing weight. D. Continuous walking could treat eating disorders. 13. What does the underlined word “diminishes” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Clarifies. B. Uncovers. C. Investigates. D. Underestimates. 14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The research objectives and methods. B. The sample selection and characteristics. C. The potential drawbacks and weaknesses. D. The practical implications and applications. 15. How did the researchers determine participants’ energy consumption? A. By counting their steps. B. By measuring their speed. C. By comparing their time length. D. By monitoring their oxygen intake. 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。 The Art of Giving Compliments (称赞) Compliments create a positive impact, uplifting both the giver and receiver. Let’s start lifting each other up more often with encouraging words. One important aspect of giving compliments is to acknowledge the small things in life. You don’t need to wait around for some big achievement to offer a compliment to somebody. If it’s something really obvious, they’ve probably been complimented on it plenty of times before. ___16___ What may seem unimportant to you might mean a lot to somebody else. Like somebody’s jacket? Let them know! Impressed with someone’s handwriting? Tell them. Additionally, when giving compliments, it’s crucial to be specific. If you want to encourage positive change in someone, give them specific compliments. The more specific your compliments are, the more likely they are to continue the positive behavior. This helps them identify what they’re doing right. For this reason, children who grew up with parents who gave them a lot of general praise, “You’re so smart!” or, “You’re so special!” tend to feel lost in adulthood. ___17___ Another key element in the art of complimenting is sincerity. Compliments that are clearly insincere won’t win you any points. ___18___ If a person knows you’re lying, that will destroy their trust in you and de-value your future compliments. So, always keep in mind that honesty is the best policy when it comes to giving compliments. ___19___ Non-present compliments are those you yourself offer about someone else when they’ re not around. Repeating them always works wonders. For example, I was recently talking to my brother about working on the blog. I mentioned how I really admire Kate’s determination to finish an article on a tight deadline, even if it means staying up all night to do it. When I got home, I told her about that conversation. ___20___ A. Kate thanked us sincerely. B. Kate said it really meant a lot. C. In fact, they’ll have the opposite effect. D. So offer your admiration for the small stuff. E. At-present compliments are equally important. F. They haven’t learned to recognize their talents. G. Repeating non-present compliments is also valuable. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15 分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The River Don in Mike’s hometown is a well-known local dumping ground (垃圾倾倒地).Whenever Mike passed the river, the rubbish ____21____ him, so he decided to take ____22____ into his own hands.

His neighbor, Mr. Foy, had hired him to move them all into the storage room. He had been working for an hour, yet the pile seemed hardly any smaller. Just then, his friend Jon showed up. Jon saw the situation and quickly realized the job would take quite a while. He suggested Maxwell use a wheelbarrow (手推车) to transport the oranges, which would speed things up. Maxwell’s eyes lit up as he heard the idea. They found a wheelbarrow behind the storage room. Right away, they started loading the oranges into the wheelbarrow, pushed it into the storage room, and piled the oranges inside. With their joint efforts, the seemingly tough task was completed in a short time. Maxwell looked at Jon, whose face was red and sweaty from all the work. Maxwell felt really thankful. Jon had given him a great idea and then helped with the job. He thought he was so lucky to have a friend like Jon. Maxwell decided that if Jon ever needed help, he would be there right away. He was glad Jon came to help him today. Then, Maxwell rushed to tell Mr. Foy that he had finished. “Maxwell, I can’t believe you’ve managed to finish all this work on your own in such a short time!” Mr. Foy said in surprise. Appreciating the boy’s nice work, he gave Maxwell a $20 bill happily. Maxwell looked at the generous payment Mr. Foy had handed him. He felt a bit uneasy about taking all the money. He pictured Jon’s red sweaty face and his brilliant wheelbarrow idea. He knew that Jon had played an important role in getting the job done quickly. Although Jon hadn’t mentioned anything about payment, Maxwell felt he couldn’t keep it a secret. 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。 After some hesitation Maxwell decided to tell Mr. Foy the truth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Taking the money, Maxwell went directly to Jon’s house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2025届清远市普通高中毕业年级教学质量检测(二) 高 三 英 语 注意事项： 1.本试卷满分120分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡的相应位置。 3.全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在本试题卷上无效。 4.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。 5.考试结束后，将本试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50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 【1~3题答案】 【答案】1.

Gathering his courage, Maxwell approached Mr. Foy with a sense of determination. “Mr. Foy,” Maxwell began, his voice filled with a sense of nervousness. “My friend Jon actually helped me, and it was his idea to use the wheelbarrow, which allowed us to finish the work so fast.” Mr. Foy nodded in approval and said, “It seems Jon deserves part of the payment too.” Mr. Foy further suggested that Maxwell split the $20 payment in half and give $10 to Jon as a sign of gratitude for his labor. Maxwell agreed wholeheartedly, recognizing the fairness and wisdom of Mr. Foy’s suggestion. Taking the money, Maxwell went directly to Jon’s house. Upon arriving, Maxwell took a deep breath and walked up to Jon. Maxwell handed Jon the $10, explaining it was his fair share. Jon initially refused, saying he hadn’t helped for money. Maxwell insisted, emphasizing Jon’s idea and hard work deserved recognition. Jon finally accepted, appreciating Maxwell’s honesty. “You’ re a good friend,” Jon said, smiling. Maxwell felt proud, knowing he’d done the right thing. Their friendship deepened, strengthened by trust and fairness. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
