Keukenhof Gardens, the Netherlands The Netherlands produces nearly 90% of the world's tulips, making it the unique destination for a wonderful spring experience. Cycle along the 25-mile Flower Route, where flower fields paint the countryside in bright colors. Travelers can also visit Keukenhof Gardens 16 miles southwest of Amsterdam. Considered the world's largest flower garden, Keukenhof features seven million flowering tulips from March to May. Umm Qais, Jordan Despite being 75% desert, Jordan's northern highlands burst with brightly colored flowers from March to May. Take a self-guided hike on one of the several ancient trails starting from the ruins of Umm Qais or hire a local guide who can offer cultural and historical context and help you identify wildflowers along the way, including Jordan's endangered national flower, the black iris. Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina Travelers can find a wealth of plant species in North Carolina's mountains—the most in any similarly sized area in North America. The best known may be the pink and purple rhododendrons that blanket the Blue Ridge Mountains in summer. Numerous hiking trails leading to the amazing sights are just 30 miles from downtown Asheville. In June, travelers can take the hour-long drive from Asheville to Bakersville to enjoy the North Carolina Rhododendron Festival. Ghorepani Poon Hill Nepal Travelling along the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek in spring offers breathtaking views of the country's iconic rhododendrons. March or April gives travelers the rhododendrons in full bloom, but November gives drier weather. Go with local Sherpa guides and cooks—it's part of the experience. 1. What is probably the best time to see the tulips in Keukenhof Gardens? A. February. B. April. C. June. D. November. 2. Which country considers the black iris as its national flower? A. Jordan. B. America. C. Nepal. D. The Netherlands. 3. What do the last two destinations have in common? A. They are surrounded by deserts. B. They have the most plant species. C. They offer unique ancient ruins. D. They are known for the same flower. B Ckunsa, the language of the Lickanantay people who have lived in the Atacama Desert for more than 11,000 years, was declared “extinct” in the 1950s. An extinct language is a language that no longer exists due to there being no speakers or users, in linguistics or otherwise. It’s a language no one bothers to study at all. “I don’t accept that my native language is extinct,” says 50-year-old Tomás Vilca, an aboriginal person living in the depths of the desert. “We are bringing it back. We are going to revive our language.” About 7,000 languages are spoken worldwide, of which around 1,500 are in danger of disappearing altogether by the end of this century. Ckunsa is not the only one to disappear. The Selk’ nam, a native people who lived in the furthest southern reaches of Chile, spoke a language called Ona, which has also been declared extinct. Recently, in 2021, Cristina Calderón, the last speaker of the Yagán language at the southernmost tip of South America, died. With her death, the Yagán language became extinct. “At the educational level, we are working constantly to revive Ckunsa through the school subject,” said Margarita Makuc, head of the Chilean Education Ministry’s general education division. In 2018 and 2019, the ministry spoke to representatives from the country’s 10 native communities to build a curriculum (课程表) for the subject, which was approved and carried out in July 2020. In October 2021, the first great meeting of the Ckunsa language was held in an attempt to plot a way forward for the recovery of the language. And in May this year, a foundation handed out 1,400 mini Ckunsa dictionaries to primary school students in San Pedro de Atacama. Ilia Reyes Aymani, a local 50-year-old teacher, has written short songs in Ckunsa to teach colors and numbers to the local children. “We’re trying to leave something behind for our children, much as our grandparents and ancestors did for us,” says Reyes Aymani. “The more we spread the words and teach people, the faster Ckunsa grows as a language. It’s great to see how people are taking it up, and showing us that our heritage matters.” 4. What does the underlined word “aboriginal” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Creative. B. Inexperienced. C. Local. D. Unlucky. 5. How is paragraph 2 developed? A. By reasoning. B. By analyzing results. C. By experimenting. D. By giving examples. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Students’ performance in Chile. B. Efforts to revive Ckunsa. C. Steps in learning a foreign language. D. Problems with carrying out the project. 7. What does Reyes Aymani think of his present work? A. It is beneficial to future generations. B. It earns him a large sum of money. C. It makes him feel anxious and stressed. D. It gets him to know more famous people. C India has been one of the world’s largest producers and consumers of wheat and rice. “We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. “We really need these seeds to deal with these multiple issues created by global warming,” said Ashok Kumar Singh, former director of New Delhi-based Indian Agriculture Research Institute and a scientist who specializes in plant genetics and breeding. Singh has overseen the creation of multiple successful rice varieties to resist various plant diseases. And his organization, with funding from the government, has released more than 2,000 seed varieties in the last decade. “Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. 8. What can we learn from P. Ravinder Reddy’s words? A. He has been a soldier for sixteen years. B. He has an approach to helping seeds grow. C. The climate in India has become extreme. D. It is easy to predict when it will rain in India. 9. What is a consequence of applying natural farming? A. Yield decrease. B. Energy shortage. C. Land loss. D. Environmental harm. 10. What does the author want to show by mentioning 700 million people? A. The rising population around the world. B. The right way of keeping a healthy diet. C. The importance of a United Nations report. D. The necessity for developing tougher seeds. 11. What is Aditi Mukherji’s suggestion for the governments? A. Training their farmers. B. Creating more jobs. C. Raising the price of seeds. D. Ensuring personal security. D A mysterious phenomenon first observed in 2013 in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean appeared so unbelievable. Sensor readings seemed to show that oxygen was being made on the seabed 4,000 meters below the surface. “I told my students to put the sensors back in the box. We shipped them back to the producer and got them tested because I thought they had given us nonsense,” said Andrew Sweetman, a professor at the Scottish Association for Marine Science. “And every single time the producer came back: ‘They’re working accurately.’” Photosynthetic organisms (光合生物) such as plants and algae use sunlight to produce oxygen that cycles into the ocean depths, but previous studies conducted in the deep sea have shown that oxygen is only consumed, not produced, by the organisms that live there. Now, the team’s research was challenging this long-held assumption, finding oxygen produced without photosynthesis. Sweetman first made the unexpected observation that “dark oxygen” was being produced on the seafloor while assessing marine biodiversity in an area that’s used for mining potato-size polymetallic nodules (多金属结核). Metals contained in the nodules are in high demand for use in solar panels, electric car batteries and other green technology. The team took some of the samples of polymetallic nodules back to study in the lab to try to understand exactly how oxygen was being produced. Working with scientists at Northwestern University, Dr. Sweetman discovered that the nodules produce a small amount of electricity. When the nodules are close together, they create enough electricity to produce the oxygen. The discovery raises more concerns about deep-sea mining. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii said he favored a pause on mining the nodules. Early attempts at mining efforts in the zone in the 1980s provided a warning. “In 2016 and 2017, marine biologists visited sites that were mined in the 1980s and found not even bacteria had recovered in mined areas,” said Smith. “In unmined regions, however, there are many species of sealife.” 12. Why did Sweetman send the sensors back to the producer? A. He broke them by accident. B. He didn’t need them anymore. C. He thought they were out of order. D. He wanted to replace them with the latest ones. 13. According to the text, the team succeeded in _____________. A. inventing electric car batteries B. producing oxygen in the deep ocean C. creating polymetallic nodules in the lab D. proving the long-held assumption wrong 14. What is Craig Smith’s attitude to deep-sea mining? A. Favorable. B. Opposed. C. Unconcerned. D. Unclear. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. New Research on the Indian Ocean B. Dark Oxygen Was Found on the Seafloor C. It Is Important for Us to Protect Sealife D. A Mysterious Study on Green Technology 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。 Getting work done, meeting deadlines and being productive 100% of the time are difficult for everyone. ___16___.

I know how powerfully one teacher can impact the life of a person. Because I was born in the poorest family in town, I quit high school to get a job. With no education and skills, I only found factory jobs or waitress work, which barely kept a roof over our heads. One day, searching the job ads, I found a notice that our local community college offered training for those who qualified under a government program. It included a stipend (津贴) for the hours as well as the training. One requirement was a high school diploma (毕业文凭) or GED (General Educational Development) certificate. Fortunately, after dropping out of school, I took the GED test and received my certificate, but with such low scores, I was ashamed to show it to anyone. However. I still decided to go to the school to meet the advisor who would assess me. Her name was Ruby Martin I was prepared to hear her criticize me for my low scores and wasting her valuable time. However, she did the opposite. “You are so young. Why are you applying for this training program instead of applying to college?” she asked. I whispered, “Because I am poor and stupid. . . ” She looked gently at me and said, “Since you have got the GED certificate, you are not stupid at all.” For the next hour, she explained that I could go to college with the help of financial support. She also assured me I would make an excellent candidate for the job training program. Throughout the twelve week training, Mrs. Martin came in every few days and spoke to several of us, including me. She was encouraging and supportive. The basic skills we learned in that program made it possible for me to get a job as a retail clerk and bookkeeper, but the words of Mrs. Martin echoed (回响) in my mind. One day, armed with some hope and questions, I dropped by Mrs, Martin's office. She took the time to guide me toward the financial-aid office. With her help, I managed to be admitted into the college. 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。 College proved challenging yet incredibly rewarding. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I dropped by Mrs. Martin’s office again after my graduation. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 开封五校2024～2025学年下学期期中考试 高二英语 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：至人教版选择性必修第四册Unit 4。 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.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了几个旅游景点。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据Keukenhof Gardens, the Netherlands中的“Considered the world's largest flower garden, Keukenhof features seven million flowering tulips from March to May. ”（库肯霍夫被认为是世界上最大的花园，从3月到5月，这里有700万朵盛开的郁金香。）可知，四月是观看郁金香最好的时间。故选B项。 【2题详解】 根据 Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina中的“Take a self-guided hike on one of the several ancient trails starting from the ruins of Umm Qais or hire a local guide who can offer cultural and historical context and help you identify wildflowers along the way, including Jordan's endangered national flower, the black iris.”（从乌姆盖斯遗址出发，在几条古老的小径上自行徒步旅行，或者雇佣一名当地导游，他可以提供文化和历史背景，并帮助你辨认沿途的野花，包括约旦濒临灭绝的国花黑鸢尾花。）可知，黑鸢尾花是约旦的国花。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina中的“The best known may be the pink and purple rhododendrons that blanket the Blue Ridge Mountains in summer. ”（最有名的可能是夏天覆盖蓝岭山脉的粉红色和紫色杜鹃花。）和Ghorepani Poon Hill, Nepal中的“Travelling along the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek in spring offers breathtaking views of the country's iconic rhododendrons.”（在春天沿着Ghorepani Poon山徒步旅行，可以看到这个国家标志性的杜鹃花的壮丽景色。）可知，这两个地方都以杜鹃花出名。故选D项。 B Ckunsa, the language of the Lickanantay people who have lived in the Atacama Desert for more than 11,000 years, was declared “extinct” in the 1950s. An extinct language is a language that no longer exists due to there being no speakers or users, in linguistics or otherwise. It’s a language no one bothers to study at all. “I don’t accept that my native language is extinct,” says 50-year-old Tomás Vilca, an aboriginal person living in the depths of the desert. “We are bringing it back. We are going to revive our language.” About 7,000 languages are spoken worldwide, of which around 1,500 are in danger of disappearing altogether by the end of this century. Ckunsa is not the only one to disappear. The Selk’ nam, a native people who lived in the furthest southern reaches of Chile, spoke a language called Ona, which has also been declared extinct. Recently, in 2021, Cristina Calderón, the last speaker of the Yagán language at the southernmost tip of South America, died. With her death, the Yagán language became extinct. “At the educational level, we are working constantly to revive Ckunsa through the school subject,” said Margarita Makuc, head of the Chilean Education Ministry’s general education division. In 2018 and 2019, the ministry spoke to representatives from the country’s 10 native communities to build a curriculum (课程表) for the subject, which was approved and carried out in July 2020. In October 2021, the first great meeting of the Ckunsa language was held in an attempt to plot a way forward for the recovery of the language. And in May this year, a foundation handed out 1,400 mini Ckunsa dictionaries to primary school students in San Pedro de Atacama. Ilia Reyes Aymani, a local 50-year-old teacher, has written short songs in Ckunsa to teach colors and numbers to the local children. “We’re trying to leave something behind for our children, much as our grandparents and ancestors did for us,” says Reyes Aymani. “The more we spread the words and teach people, the faster Ckunsa grows as a language. It’s great to see how people are taking it up, and showing us that our heritage matters.” 4. What does the underlined word “aboriginal” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Creative. B. Inexperienced. C. Local. D. Unlucky. 5. How is paragraph 2 developed? A. By reasoning. B. By analyzing results. C. By experimenting. D. By giving examples. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Students’ performance in Chile. B. Efforts to revive Ckunsa. C. Steps in learning a foreign language. D. Problems with carrying out the project. 7. What does Reyes Aymani think of his present work? A. It is beneficial to future generations. B. It earns him a large sum of money. C. It makes him feel anxious and stressed. D. It gets him to know more famous people. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了智利原住民努力复兴Ckunsa语言的故事。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中画线词前““I don’t accept that my native language is extinct,” says 50-year-old Tomás Vilca, (“我不接受我的母语已经灭绝的说法，”50岁的Tomás Vilca说。)”，以及“person living in the depths of the desert. (居住在沙漠深处的人)”可知，50岁的Tomás Vilca一直生活在沙漠深处，应为原住民。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The Selk’ nam, a native people who lived in the furthest southern reaches of Chile, spoke a language called Ona, which has also been declared extinct. Recently, in 2021, Cristina Calderón, the last speaker of the Yagán language at the southernmost tip of South America, died. With her death, the Yagán language became extinct.(塞尔克南人，一个生活在智利最南端的原住民族，使用一种叫做Ona的语言，这种语言也已被宣布灭绝。最近，在2021年，Cristina Calderón去世，她是南美洲最南端Yagán语的最后一位使用者。随着她的去世，Yagán语也随之灭绝。)”可知，本段主要通过举例子展开。故选D。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“In 2018 and 2019, the ministry spoke to representatives from the country’s 10 native communities to build a curriculum (课程表) for the subject, which was approved and carried out in July 2020. In October 2021, the first great meeting of the Ckunsa language was held in an attempt to plot a way forward for the recovery of the language. And in May this year, a foundation handed out 1,400 mini Ckunsa dictionaries to primary school students in San Pedro de Atacama. (2018年和2019年，该部与来自国家10个原住民族的代表进行了交谈，以构建该科目的课程，该课程于2020年7月获得批准并实施。2021年10月，首次举行了大规模的Ckunsa语言会议，试图为语言的恢复制定前进的方向。今年5月，一个基金会向San Pedro de Atacama的小学生发放了1400本迷你Ckunsa词典。)”可知，本段主要介绍了为复兴Ckunsa所做的努力。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““We’re trying to leave something behind for our children, much as our grandparents and ancestors did for us,” says Reyes Aymani. (“我们正在努力为我们的孩子留下一些东西，就像我们的祖父母和祖先为我们做的那样，”Reyes Aymani说。)”可知，Reyes Aymani认为自己目前的工作对后代有益。故选A。 C India has been one of the world’s largest producers and consumers of wheat and rice. “We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. “We really need these seeds to deal with these multiple issues created by global warming,” said Ashok Kumar Singh, former director of New Delhi-based Indian Agriculture Research Institute and a scientist who specializes in plant genetics and breeding. Singh has overseen the creation of multiple successful rice varieties to resist various plant diseases. And his organization, with funding from the government, has released more than 2,000 seed varieties in the last decade. “Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. 8. What can we learn from P. Ravinder Reddy’s words? A. He has been a soldier for sixteen years. B. He has an approach to helping seeds grow. C. The climate in India has become extreme. D. It is easy to predict when it will rain in India. 9. What is a consequence of applying natural farming? A. Yield decrease. B. Energy shortage. C. Land loss. D. Environmental harm. 10. What does the author want to show by mentioning 700 million people? A. The rising population around the world. B. The right way of keeping a healthy diet. C. The importance of a United Nations report. D. The necessity for developing tougher seeds. 11. What is Aditi Mukherji’s suggestion for the governments? A. Training their farmers. B. Creating more jobs. C. Raising the price of seeds. D. Ensuring personal security. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。全球气候变暖迫使各国政府不断开发更适应气候变化的种子。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中““We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” (“我们过去知道什么时候会下雨，会下雨多久，我们就会据此播种，”P. Ravinder Reddy说。他曾是一名印度士兵，16年前开始在自家的土地上种地。“现在，很多时候种子不生长，要么是因为雨水太多，要么是因为完全干燥。”)”可推断，印度的气候变得极端。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. (一些人正在采取所谓的自然农业技术，比如在树木和其他植物旁边种植作物，这些植物可以保护作物免受风和一些极端天气的影响，以应对气候变化。但这可能意味着减产，因此印度政府正在推广使用不会减产的新品种水稻种子。)”可知，实施自然农耕会导致产量下降。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. (根据联合国今年早些时候发布的一份报告，去年有7亿多人挨饿，全球三分之一以上的人口无法负担健康的饮食。除印度外，包括美国政府项目和私人资助项目在内的其他项目正在帮助开发能够适应非洲、中美洲和其他亚洲国家气候变化的新种子。)”可推断，作者在第三段提及遭受饥饿之苦的7亿人口是为了表明培育更顽强的种子的必要性。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. (国际农业研究协商小组气候变化适应和减缓主任、几份联合国气候报告的作者Aditi Mukherji说：“确保农民了解这类种子，能够负担得起它们，并接受正确使用它们的培训，这与创造种子同样重要。”)”可知，Aditi Mukherji建议各国政府培训他们的农民。故选A。 D A mysterious phenomenon first observed in 2013 in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean appeared so unbelievable. Sensor readings seemed to show that oxygen was being made on the seabed 4,000 meters below the surface. “I told my students to put the sensors back in the box. We shipped them back to the producer and got them tested because I thought they had given us nonsense,” said Andrew Sweetman, a professor at the Scottish Association for Marine Science. “And every single time the producer came back: ‘They’re working accurately.’” Photosynthetic organisms (光合生物) such as plants and algae use sunlight to produce oxygen that cycles into the ocean depths, but previous studies conducted in the deep sea have shown that oxygen is only consumed, not produced, by the organisms that live there. Now, the team’s research was challenging this long-held assumption, finding oxygen produced without photosynthesis. Sweetman first made the unexpected observation that “dark oxygen” was being produced on the seafloor while assessing marine biodiversity in an area that’s used for mining potato-size polymetallic nodules (多金属结核). Metals contained in the nodules are in high demand for use in solar panels, electric car batteries and other green technology. The team took some of the samples of polymetallic nodules back to study in the lab to try to understand exactly how oxygen was being produced. Working with scientists at Northwestern University, Dr. Sweetman discovered that the nodules produce a small amount of electricity. When the nodules are close together, they create enough electricity to produce the oxygen. The discovery raises more concerns about deep-sea mining. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii said he favored a pause on mining the nodules. Early attempts at mining efforts in the zone in the 1980s provided a warning. “In 2016 and 2017, marine biologists visited sites that were mined in the 1980s and found not even bacteria had recovered in mined areas,” said Smith. “In unmined regions, however, there are many species of sealife.” 12. Why did Sweetman send the sensors back to the producer? A. He broke them by accident. B. He didn’t need them anymore. C. He thought they were out of order. D. He wanted to replace them with the latest ones. 13. According to the text, the team succeeded in _____________. A. inventing electric car batteries B. producing oxygen in the deep ocean C. creating polymetallic nodules in the lab D. proving the long-held assumption wrong 14. What is Craig Smith’s attitude to deep-sea mining? A. Favorable. B. Opposed. C. Unconcerned. D. Unclear. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. New Research on the Indian Ocean B. Dark Oxygen Was Found on the Seafloor C. It Is Important for Us to Protect Sealife D. A Mysterious Study on Green Technology 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了太平洋海底“暗氧”发现及影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““I told my students to put the sensors back in the box. We shipped them back to the producer and got them tested because I thought they had given us nonsense,” said Andrew Sweetman, a professor at the Scottish Association for Marine Science. “And every single time the producer came back: ‘They’re working accurately.’” (苏格兰海洋科学协会的教授安德鲁・斯威特曼说：“我让学生们把传感器放回盒子里，然后把它们寄回给生产商进行检测，因为我觉得它们给出的数据毫无意义。而每次生产商的反馈都是：‘它们的运行是准确的。’”)”可知，Sweetman以为这些传感器出故障了。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Now, the team’s research was challenging this long-held assumption, finding oxygen produced without photosynthesis. (现在，该团队的研究正在挑战这一长期存在的假设，即发现了在没有光合作用的情况下产生氧气的现象。)”、第四段中“Sweetman first made the unexpected observation that “dark oxygen” was being produced on the seafloor while assessing marine biodiversity in an area that’s used for mining potato-size polymetallic nodules (多金属结核). (斯威特曼在评估一个用于开采土豆大小多金属结核的区域的海洋生物多样性时，首次意外观察到海底正在产生“暗氧”。)”及第五段中“The team took some of the samples of polymetallic nodules back to study in the lab to try to understand exactly how oxygen was being produced. (该团队带回了一些多金属结核样本到实验室进行研究，试图确切了解氧气是如何产生的。)”可知，团队成功证明了长期以来的假设(深海只能消耗氧气，却不能产生氧气)是错误的。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The discovery raises more concerns about deep-sea mining. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii said he favored a pause on mining the nodules. (这一发现引发了人们对深海采矿更多担忧。夏威夷大学的克雷格・史密斯表示，他赞成暂停开采这些结核。)”可知, Craig Smith“反对”深海采矿。A. Favorable赞成的；B. Opposed反对的；C. Unconcerned不关心的；D. Unclear不清楚的。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A mysterious phenomenon first observed in 2013 in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean appeared so unbelievable. Sensor readings seemed to show that oxygen was being made on the seabed 4,000 meters below the surface. (2013 年在太平洋偏远地区首次观测到的一种神秘现象显得令人难以置信。传感器读数似乎显示，在海平面以下 4000 米的海床上正在产生氧气。)”可知，本文主要讲述太平洋海底发现“暗氧”，因此最佳标题是在海底发现了“暗氧”。故选B。 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。 Getting work done, meeting deadlines and being productive 100% of the time are difficult for everyone. ___16___.

(运用了不定式作后置定语) 第二节（满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I have recently retired from my teaching position. I know how powerfully one teacher can impact the life of a person. Because I was born in the poorest family in town, I quit high school to get a job. With no education and skills, I only found factory jobs or waitress work, which barely kept a roof over our heads. One day, searching the job ads, I found a notice that our local community college offered training for those who qualified under a government program. It included a stipend (津贴) for the hours as well as the training. One requirement was a high school diploma (毕业文凭) or GED (General Educational Development) certificate. Fortunately, after dropping out of school, I took the GED test and received my certificate, but with such low scores, I was ashamed to show it to anyone. However. I still decided to go to the school to meet the advisor who would assess me. Her name was Ruby Martin I was prepared to hear her criticize me for my low scores and wasting her valuable time. However, she did the opposite. “You are so young. Why are you applying for this training program instead of applying to college?” she asked. I whispered, “Because I am poor and stupid. . . ” She looked gently at me and said, “Since you have got the GED certificate, you are not stupid at all.” For the next hour, she explained that I could go to college with the help of financial support. She also assured me I would make an excellent candidate for the job training program. Throughout the twelve week training, Mrs. Martin came in every few days and spoke to several of us, including me. She was encouraging and supportive. The basic skills we learned in that program made it possible for me to get a job as a retail clerk and bookkeeper, but the words of Mrs. Martin echoed (回响) in my mind. One day, armed with some hope and questions, I dropped by Mrs, Martin's office. She took the time to guide me toward the financial-aid office. With her help, I managed to be admitted into the college. 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。 College proved challenging yet incredibly rewarding. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I dropped by Mrs. Martin’s office again after my graduation. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: College proved challenging yet incredibly rewarding. There were many classes to attend every day, during which the professors required us to read a lot of books. So I spent a great deal of my time in the library. I cherished this hard-won learning opportunity very much. At the same time, in order to earn money to cover my living expenses, I did some part-time jobs. At graduation, I earned a bachelor’s degree in English for Education and set out on my own career as a teacher. I dropped by Mrs. Martin’s office again after my graduation. Overcome with gratitude and the realization that she had truly given me a new life, I couldn’t wait to tell her I had graduated with honors, and that I would be teaching in a high school. With tears in my eyes, I continued, “If you had not believed in me and encouraged me, I would never have gone to college. ”Hearing about my achievements, she felt very proud and inspired me to guide my students like she did. Of course, I would treat my students the way she treated me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述作者想去参加当地的社区学院为那些符合政府项目条件的人提供培训，遇到Ruby Martin顾问，Ruby Martin花时间帮作者申请了助学金，在她的帮助下，作者设法考上了大学。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“事实证明，上大学很有挑战性，但却收获颇丰。”可以预测续写这段主要内容： 作者的大学生活，毕业后作者成为了一名老师。 ②由第二段首句内容“毕业后，我又顺便去了Martin夫人的办公室。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：作者对Martin的感谢。Martin也为作者感到骄傲。 2.续写线索： 开始大学生活——毕业后成为一名老师——去见Martin—— 感谢Martin——Martin为作者感到骄傲 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①要求：require/ask/demand ②珍惜：cherish/treasure ③支付：cover/pay for 情绪类 ①感激： gratitude/appreciation ②感到骄傲：feel proud/take pride 【点睛】[高分句型1] There were many classes to attend every day, during which the professors required us to read a lot of books. （运用了介词+which构成的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] If you had not believed in me and encouraged me, I would never have gone to college.（运用了if引导的虚拟条件句） [高分句型3] Hearing about my achievements, she felt very proud and inspired me to guide my students like she did. （运用了现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
