B Lu Hong, a man with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) from Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, has been named China’s “Forrest Gump” after becoming a successful factory owner who employs disabled people. After graduating from a vocational school, he faced difficulties finding a job. Later, he started to learn to make household utensils (器具) and worked at his uncle’s factory. For two years, Lu traveled 50 kilometers every weekday as an employee of the factory. He said thanks to biking during that time, he was able to improve his shape and started to look like a normal person. Lu had been trying to start his own business since 2002, having been a stall owner, a bicycle repairer, and owner of a newsstand, a telephone shop and a video shop. He made some money from these businesses. In 2012, Lu opened a photo studio and skillfully mastered Photoshop by himself. Many people came to his studio to have their photos shot and asked if he provided photo albums. Seeing this as an opportunity, Lu decided to make photo albums himself. He opened a workshop. However, the business didn’t get off to a good start. When he ran out of ideas, the local disabled people’s association came to help by finding an abandoned school building as a potential site for Lu to operate his business. With such assistance, Lu managed to grow his business quickly. “I would insist on doing things. As long as I start to engage in one thing, I’ll try my best to do it,” says Lu. In 2022, the business turnover of Lu’s factory reached over 13 million yuan. Lu has generously provided jobs for disabled job seekers. Among 42 employees of his paper product factory, 30 are people with disabilities. He not only teaches them how to work, but also encourages them to give full play to their potential. His business not only enables him to support his own family but also helps his employees get rid of poverty. 24. In what way did Lu Hong improve his physical condition? A. By biking to work every weekday. B. By mastering Photoshop. C. By walking 50 kilometers daily. D. By working at his uncle’s factory. 25. What did Lu Hong get from the association? A. Financial support. B. Employment opportunities. C. Training in using Photoshop. D. A place for his business. 26. What does the underlined word “turnover” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. The number of products sold. B. The total value of goods sold. C. The money paid to the government. D. The rate of employee replacement. 27. Which words can best describe Lu Hong? A. Honest and confident. B. Professional and responsible. C. Patient and considerate. D. Determined and helpful. C In 1973, when Melissa Greene was in 6th grade, her parents bought the first flat on Hutchinson Island. The first time she ran down to the wild shore, she was shocked by the contrast to their earlier beach trips to Daytona, a people-packed spectacle of cars. On Hutchinson, the spectacle was the seashells (海贝). Today, on the same stretch of beach, she rarely finds large whole shells. Among the most amazing natural objects, seashells represent both the surprise and wonder still promised by a trip to the beach - and the major changes underway on our coasts. Many of the largest and best-known marine mollusks (海洋软体动物) - the animal architects that build seashells - have declined under fishing pressure. They are also harmed by rising ocean temperatures, and by pollution and runoff from the land. And they can be displaced by the severe erosion (侵蚀) caused by inlets - a growing problem on Hutchinson Island - as well as efforts to repair eroded beaches by recovering lost sand. Twenty-five years ago, Sanibel Island became the first city in the U. S. to ban (禁止) “live shelling”, the practice of collecting and killing mollusks for their shells. The move to protect the individual lives of soft-bodied mollusks seems almost strange given ocean warming and other “tough realities of the changing world,” acknowledges José H. Leal, science director at Sanibel’s Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum. But helping beach goers appreciate the animals inside the shell as much as the shiny exterior turns out to be a crucial step toward helping them understand what’s happening in the sea, Leal says. “If people understand the complexity of these animals and their importance, they will also realize the need to protect marine environments.” Delaware Seashore State Park is taking so-called low-impact beach combing (赶海) a step further: asking visitors to leave empty shells alone, too. At the park, signs advise visitors to leave shells where they lie or take a photo of a marine creature in the sand. After all, the point of enjoying nature is that it is in a natural state. 28. What impressed Melissa Greene on Hutchinson Island when she was young? A. The seashells. B. The tourists. C. The flats. D. The cars. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The dangers marine mollusks face. B. The changes seashells have experienced. C. The efforts made to save marine mollusks. D. The current situation of Hutchinson Island. 30. What does José H. Leal think of banning “live shelling”? A. It slows down ocean warming. B. It keeps people away from beaches. C. It popularizes the collecting of seashells. D. It raises people’s awareness of ocean protection. 31. What is the purpose of Delaware Seashore State Park’s advice? A. To provide habitat for small creatures. B. To protect visitors from being harmed. C. To attract marine creatures to the beach. D. To preserve the natural state of the beach. D An art exhibition that combines scientific knowledge with creative inspiration was recently presented in Albany. The exhibition featured artworks from MIX Artists in the Great Southern that showcased unique art-science cooperation between contemporary artists and marine (海洋的) scientists working in the region. The waters of the south coast and around Albany are well-known for their unique diversity of plants and animals, and the works conveyed important marine science knowledge and current research to a broad audience. The Western Australian Marine Science Institution (WAMSI) provided opportunities for the artists to learn from marine scientists through talks, presentations and field trips. The artists also followed up with ongoing self-research and observation of their environment. Dr Jenny Shaw, WAMSI Research Director, said, “It’s been a great opportunity to move science into the community and also see different interpretations of marine research topics.” The scientists benefited from explaining their work to different audiences, and the interest from the artists was incredibly high, contributing to a shared appreciation for the marine environment. MIX Artists coordinator Annette Davis said the cooperation gave the artists fantastic insight into another world, and working with the scientists was fundamental to how the artworks had developed. “Responding with intuition (直觉), curiosity and imagination, the artists have interpreted their findings through chosen materials and techniques and created artworks to help move this understanding into the wider community,” Davis said. The pursuit of marine science inspired some artists, whose artworks often centre around the finely-balanced coastal environment and the impact of structural change. Catherine Higham used seagrass and bamboo to make a large listening horn (喇叭) to listen to underwater life. Christine Baker’s work, titled Micro Plastic Menu, was inspired by a talk on microplastic pollution and how it enters food chains. 32. How did WAMSI assist the artists? A. By aiding in materials creation. B. By providing technical guidance. C. By offering a platform for art sales. D. By organizing educational events. 33. What can we infer from the text? A. The art exhibition of scientists is very eye-catching. B. People are much more interested in science than in art. C. The participation of artists contributes to the spread of marine knowledge. D. Artists should go into the classroom to learn cultural knowledge. 34. Why is the work Micro Plastic Menu mentioned in the text? A. To highlight the personal experiences of the artist. B. To illustrate that artists draw inspiration from science. C. To demonstrate the use of technology in contemporary art. D. To emphasize the role of art in environmental conservation. 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. An Art Exhibition by a Famous Marine Artist B. A Cooperative Art and Marine Science Exhibition C. An Exhibition Showcasing Traditional Art Forms D. A Conference Discussing Marine Science Advancements 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。 Starting new healthy habits can seem challenging at first.

The waiting room stood empty except for an old clock ticking on the wall and a silent TV in the corner. Cold rain beat against the windows as I restocked bandages. Suddenly, the door opened, and an old man entered, holding a small boy. Both were wet from the storm, their shoes leaving watery footprints on the floor. The boy’s grandfather said he had a fever, but the child’s skin felt cool. After a quick check, I found no signs of illness. My eyes fell on their worn clothes — the boy’s socks didn’t match, and the old man’s coat had holes. My coworker silently handed me a note: No electricity at their home for seven days. I understood their real trouble. In the waiting area, the boy stared at the TV showing a Thanksgiving feast. His grandfather offered him a piece of dry bread. Without speaking, I brought two cups of hot milk from the kitchen and found thick blankets in the storage room. The old man tried to refuse, but I explained it was hospital policy to help on holidays. I led them to a quiet room with a heater. While the boy changed into clean hospital clothes, I made a bed using spare blankets. The old man thanked me quietly, his voice shaking. Later, I contacted a local charity group, who promised to help restore their electricity the next morning. After I doing this, I noticed the boy seemed a bit restless and out of place. I remembered how scary hospitals could be for children, so I took some crayons and paper from the storage room. I handed them to the boy, hoping it would help him feel more at ease. He took them with a shy smile and began to draw. Seeing him occupied and content made me feel a little warmer inside. 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。 After daybreak, Grandpa folded the blanket carefully. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After they left, I found a child’s drawing on my desk. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024～2025学年度第二学期高二年级期中考试 英语 考生注意： 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围：人教版选择性必修第三册。 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。 【1题答案】 【答案】C 【2题答案】 【答案】C 【3题答案】 【答案】B 【4题答案】 【答案】A 【5题答案】 【答案】A 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.

My favorite poet is Du Fu, who is regarded as one of the greatest poets in Chinese history. He is quite productive, having left about 1,500 poems behind, most of which are still popular today. I love him not only because he has written many great poems, but because he has shown deep concern for the ordinary people. I think Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a 58-minute documentary produced by BBC, might be of great help. It has traced Du’s steps all over China and translated 15 of his poems into English. I’m sure you will enjoy it! Best wishes. Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 【67题答案】 【答案】One possible version: After daybreak, Grandpa folded the blanket carefully. I told them that the community’s electronic had been restored, and that the charity had begun to pay attention to their situation. Plus, I gave them extra gloves and a warm sweater donated by a staff member. The old man wept and thanked, while the boy smiled and flapped his gloved hands like a bird’s wings. They left, and the two walked to the bus stop, where they huddled under an old umbrella, but the boy’s laughter rang clearly through the rain. After they left, I found a child’s drawing on my desk. It showed a smiling nurse holding a blanket, circled by several hearts. The drawing was simple, but it spoke volumes. It was a thank-you note. It was a small sign of gratitude from a child who had nothing but still found a way to express his appreciation. I placed it in a frame and set it beside my computer. The drawing reminded me that sometimes, the smallest gestures can make the biggest difference. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。请看听力部分第一节，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。How was your shopping trip?

Thanks for taking part in the bird count this weekend. The weather report is for cloudy skies. This weekend quite good. After the recent storm, you can leave your sun cream at home.

Then on the day of the bird count, you need to bring pictures of the birds you are hoping to see. You can download the pictures from a website called nest watch. Also, let me remind you that the bird count is not a race to find the most birds possible. IT doesn't matter if your totals are different, compare your notes with others. Finally, when you are ready to submit all the data, have a look at the pictures you've taken, choose the best one submitted with your data, and you might get a prize if yours is the best one. And thanks to some funding from the local community, we've got a bit of money. So i'll bring some sandwiches and biscuits for everyone. Next week, we are going to place bird boxes in the wood if you're interested in, right? Thanks for taking part in the bird count this weekend. The weather report is for cloudy skies.
