There was a lot of yelling, not a lot of talking and events swirled around me so fast that it made me feel uncomfortable in my own skin. I didn’t feel seen. I didn’t feel heard. I didn’t think anyone wanted to know what I thought or what I needed or gave me tools to deal with how I was feeling. Then I met someone who changed all that. For an hour every day I would sit as close as I could watch the television show, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. But it was more than a television show to me. It was a visit with a smart, kind friend who looked directly at me, through the camera. The way he spoke to me, calmly, quietly and slowly, made me feel respected, even though I was just a kid. He talked about things that I was interested in. Also, he talked about tough things, like being angry, and gave me some tools as to what to do, instead of telling me to “just get over it already”. Mister Rogers saved me as a kid, but what I didn’t realize was how much he helped me as an adult. As an adult, I can remember back to some of the thoughts, feelings, tools and lessons I learned. I value having people in my real life make me feel special, and who like me just the way I am. I take note of small things every day that bring me happiness. It’s the little things that I know now make a big impact. When I was on a plane recently, a stranger helped me put my luggage in the overhead bin. He looked me in my eyes, smiled and said, “No worries, I got you.” That small little phrase is now one of my favorites. I value my husband for wanting to hear about my day and is truly interested in how I feel about it. I have always taken note of these small behaviors and call them my little life clues. They are small but mighty, much like the kids that I now talk to everyday. Mister Rogers made an impact on me as a child — and an adult — so much so that I now dedicate my life to creating shows for kids that have stories chock full of these little life lessons. But what I realize now about my work is that kids are the containers, but it’s the adults that they become that I want to benefit. I want all of us adults to remember the little things and use the life clues to bring them happiness so we can all live our very best lives. 24. What can we know about Mister Roger according to the passage? A. He is a real person near my family. B. He is the host of a television show. C. He only talked about interesting things with me. D. He treated me just like a kid. 25. Why did Mister Roger make a big impact on “me”? A. He kept communicating with me all the time. B. He taught me a lot of truths in a serious manner. C. He has the same family background with me. D. He treated me with respect and brought great happiness. 26. Why does the writer mention those examples in paragraph 4? A. To prove an idea. B. To present a phenomenon. C. To give some details. D. To lead in some arguments. 27. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To tell a story how the writer changed her attitude towards life. B. To appeal to adults to spread daily and tiny happiness to the children. C. To share her poor and miserable life as a child. D. To introduce an inspiring and interesting television show. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者童年时通过看《罗杰斯先生的左邻右舍》这个节目，受到了主持人罗杰斯先生的积极影响，并呼吁成年人向孩子们传递日常的、微小的幸福。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“For an hour every day I would sit as close as I could watch the television show, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. But it was more than a television show to me. It was a visit with a smart, kind friend who looked directly at me, through the camera. The way he spoke to me, calmly, quietly and slowly, made me feel respected, even though I was just a kid.(每天我都会尽可能地坐得很近，看一个电视节目《罗杰斯先生的左邻右舍》。但对我来说，这不仅仅是一个电视节目。这就像是去拜访一位聪明、善良的朋友，他透过镜头直视着我。他跟我说话的方式，平静、安静而缓慢，让我感到被尊重，尽管我只是个孩子)”可知，罗杰斯先生是一个电视节目的主持人。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The way he spoke to me, calmly, quietly and slowly, made me feel respected, even though I was just a kid. He talked about things that I was interested in. Also, he talked about tough things, like being angry, and gave me some tools as to what to do, instead of telling me to ‘just get over it already’. Mister Rogers saved me as a kid, but what I didn’t realize was how much he helped me as an adult.(他跟我说话的方式，平静、安静而缓慢，让我感到被尊重，尽管我只是个孩子。他谈论我感兴趣的事情。此外，他还谈论一些棘手的事情，比如生气，并给了我一些应对的方法，而不是告诉我‘就克服它吧’。罗杰斯先生在我小时候拯救了我，但我没有意识到的是，他在我成年后也帮了我很多)”可知，罗杰斯先生对“我”产生重大影响是因为他尊重“我”，并给“我”带来了极大的快乐。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I value having people in my real life make me feel special, and who like me just the way I am. I take note of small things every day that bring me happiness. It’s the little things that I know now make a big impact.(我珍视现实生活中那些让我觉得自己很特别的人，那些喜欢我本来样子的人。我每天都会留意那些给我带来快乐的小事。我现在知道，正是这些小事产生了很大的影响)”以及第四段中“When I was on a plane recently, a stranger helped me put my luggage in the overhead bin. He looked me in my eyes, smiled and said, ‘No worries, I got you.’ That small little phrase is now one of my favorites. I value my husband for wanting to hear about my day and is truly interested in how I feel about it. I have always taken note of these small behaviors and call them my little life clues. They are small but mighty, much like the kids that I now talk to everyday.(最近我在飞机上，一个陌生人帮我把行李放在头顶的行李架上。他看着我的眼睛，微笑着说：‘别担心，我来帮你。’这个小小的短语现在成了我的最爱之一。我很珍视我的丈夫，因为他想听我讲述我的一天，并且真的对我的感受很感兴趣。我一直留意这些小行为，并把它们称为我的生活小线索。它们虽小但很强大，就像我现在每天交谈的孩子们一样)” 可知，作者在第四段提到那些例子是为了证明“正是生活中的小事产生了很大的影响”这一观点。故选 A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Mister Rogers made an impact on me as a child — and an adult — so much so that I now dedicate my life to creating shows for kids that have stories chock full of these little life lessons. But what I realize now about my work is that kids are the containers, but it’s the adults that they become that I want to benefit. I want all of us adults to remember the little things and use the life clues to bring them happiness so we can all live our very best lives.(罗杰斯先生在我小时候——以及成年后——都对我产生了很大的影响，以至于我现在致力于为孩子们创作充满这些生活小教训的节目。但我现在意识到，我的工作中孩子们是载体，但我希望受益的是他们长大后成为的成年人。我希望我们所有成年人都能记住这些小事，并利用这些生活线索给他们带来幸福，这样我们都能过上最好的生活)”可知，这篇文章的目的是呼吁成年人将日常的微小幸福传递给孩子们。故选B。 C Why is the elephant trunk (鼻子) so wrinkly? In a new study in the journal Royal Society Open Science, researchers offer up some answers. This all started when Michael Brecht, a neurobiologist at Humboldt University in Berlin, and his colleagues were studying the brains of African savannah elephants and Asian elephants when they noticed a bump on each of the brain stems the size of a fava bean. “It’s very unusual. It looks very different from all other mammals,” Brecht says. It soon became clear to the researchers that the number of stripes — each one a bundle of nerve fibers — corresponded nearly exactly to the number of wrinkles in the elephant’s trunk. This discovery motivated him to take a closer look. First, Brecht and his team tracked down photographs of elephant fetuses (胎儿) to examine how the trunk develops. “It’s an incredibly fast growing body part, more than any other body part,” Brecht says. A couple months into development, the fetal trunk has about four wrinkles — at which point there’s sudden exponential growth. “Every 20 days, the number of wrinkles doubles,” he says. After a few months, things slow down. “African savannah elephants only add relatively few wrinkles in adulthood,” Brecht says. “In Asian elephants, there are noticeably more wrinkles added.” Brecht suspects this may be due to differences in how the two groups of elephants use their trunks for grasping. African savannah elephants use the tips of their trunks to pinch objects, pick them up and manipulate them. Asian elephants can do some pinching. “But when you give them a big fruit like a melon or a mango,” says Brecht, “they wrap their trunk around the object. So our thinking is that the wrinkles serve for making the trunk flexible.” Brecht also used a micro-CT scanner to look at newborn trunks in detail. He found that the skin is super thin in the troughs of the wrinkles, allowing them essentially to behave like joints. Maëlle Lefeuvre, a behavioral ecology doctoral student at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, thinks there may be engineering lessons to learn from these findings. Lafeuvre says understanding wrinkle formation and function could help inform the construction of a flexible and powerful trunk-like machine or robotic arm, for example. For Brecht, the findings reinforce how these body parts are exquisitely honed to help giant creatures feed, wherever they may live. “You cannot be such a big animal without being very heavily specialized,” he says. 28. What did Brecht’s study originally focus on? A. Wrinkles on elephants’ trunks. B. The brain of two kinds of elephants. C. The brain of mammals. D. Elephant fetuses. 29. What do we know about Brecht’s study of elephant fetuses? A. The increase of the number of wrinkles keeps the same speed. B. The trunk develops slower than other parts in elephant fetuses. C. The number of wrinkles rockets up in the first few months. D. The number of wrinkles doesn’t change. 30. What led to the difference of wrinkles between African savannah elephants and Asian elephants? A. The living environment. B. The food. C. The training. D. The use of the trunks. 31. What is Lafeuvre’s suggestions? A. Use the knowledge acquired from elephants’ trunks to engineering. B. Do more studies on the development of elephant fetus’s trunks. C. Apply the knowledge from Brecht’s study to elephant feeding. D. Track the development of trunks in adult elephants. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家通过研究大象鼻子上的皱纹，揭示了其发育过程和不同种类大象皱纹差异的原因，并探讨了这些发现对工程学的启示。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This all started when Michael Brecht, a neurobiologist at Humboldt University in Berlin, and his colleagues were studying the brains of African savannah elephants and Asian elephants when they noticed a bump on each of the brain stems the size of a fava bean. (这一切都始于柏林洪堡大学的神经生物学家迈克尔・布雷希特和他的同事们在研究非洲草原象和亚洲象的大脑时，他们注意到每一个脑干上都有一个蚕豆大小的凸起。)”可知，Brecht的研究最初聚焦于两种大象的大脑。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“A couple months into development, the fetal trunk has about four wrinkles — at which point there’s sudden exponential growth. “Every 20 days, the number of wrinkles doubles,” he says. (在发育的几个月后，胎儿的鼻子大约有四条皱纹 —— 在这一点上，皱纹数量突然呈指数增长。“每 20 天，皱纹的数量就会翻倍，” 他说。)” 可知，Brecht对大象胎儿的研究表明，在前几个月，鼻子上皱纹的数量急剧增加。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Brecht suspects this may be due to differences in how the two groups of elephants use their trunks for grasping. African savannah elephants use the tips of their trunks to pinch objects, pick them up and manipulate them. Asian elephants can do some pinching. “But when you give them a big fruit like a melon or a mango,” says Brecht, “they wrap their trunk around the object. So our thinking is that the wrinkles serve for making the trunk flexible.” (布雷希特怀疑这可能是由于这两组大象在使用鼻子抓取物体的方式上存在差异。非洲草原象用鼻子的尖端夹住物体、捡起并操作它们。亚洲象也能夹住东西。“但是当你给它们一个像甜瓜或芒果这样的大水果时，”布雷希特说，“它们会用鼻子缠住物体。所以我们认为这些皱纹是为了让鼻子更灵活。”)”可知，是使用鼻子的方式导致了非洲草原象和亚洲象鼻子皱纹的差异。故选D。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Maëlle Lefeuvre, a behavioral ecology doctoral student at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, thinks there may be engineering lessons to learn from these findings. Lafeuvre says understanding wrinkle formation and function could help inform the construction of a flexible and powerful trunk-like machine or robotic arm, for example. (克拉科夫雅盖隆大学的行为生态学博士生梅勒・勒弗夫认为，从这些发现中可能会学到一些工程学方面的知识。勒弗夫说，例如，了解皱纹的形成和功能有助于为构建一个灵活而强大的类似象鼻的机器或机械臂提供信息。)” 可知，Lafeuvre建议将从大象鼻子上获得的知识应用于工程学。故选A。 D An IT company from Finland has developed a new font (字体) which uses machine learning to rewrite bad language into kinder words. More than a third of bullying takes place online, and the numbers are on the rise, according to a report by the United Nations’ educational organization UNESCO. TietoEVRY developed the Polite Type font as a new tool to deal with online bullying among kids, pointing out harmful language and causing users to pick kinder words. As users try to write hurtful English words, the font will automatically replace them. Writing “I hate you” would, for example, result in the milder “I disagree with you” when Polite Type is used on the computer. Sentences such as “you are ugly” is replaced with “you are not traditionally beautiful” while rude words are blurred completely. The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package. Racial slurs (种族歧视语) are replaced with the racial group the slur is related to, rather than blurring the word entirely. The vocabulary of the font was co-created with teenagers from Finland. The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used. Polite Type can be now downloaded and used for free. “We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,” said Kia Haring, global head of communication and sustainability at TietoEVRY. “I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.” 32. What is special about the Polite Type font according to the text? A. It includes a wider vocabulary. B. It hides all the unusual expressions. C. It consists of words and symbols. D. It prefers long sentences to short ones. 33. What can we expect of the Polite Type font in the Future? A. It will have more words blurred. B. It will be constantly updated. C. More racial groups will use it. D. Users will be charged with using it. 34. What does Kia Haring think of creating the Polite Type font? A. Inspiring. B. Unsuccessful. C. appealing. D. Imperfect. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. A font designed to fight online bullying B. Polite Type: the self-developing font C. Show others kindness by using a new font D. A font automatically avoids racial slurs 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一种旨在打击网络欺凌的新字体Polite Type，它利用机器学习技术将不礼貌的语言自动替换为更友善的词汇。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Writing “I hate you” would, for example, result in the milder “I disagree with you” when Polite Type is used on the computer. Sentences such as “you are ugly” is replaced with “you are not traditionally beautiful” while rude words are blurred completely. The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package. Racial slurs (种族歧视语) are replaced with the racial group the slur is related to, rather than blurring the word entirely.(例如，当在电脑上使用 Polite Type 字体时，输入“我恨你”，会显示为语气更温和的“我不同意你的观点”。像“你很丑”这样的句子会被替换为“你不是传统意义上的漂亮”，而粗鲁的词语会被完全模糊处理。该公司表示，这是首次在字体包中使用模糊符号。种族歧视语会被与其相关的种族群体名称所取代，而不是完全模糊该词)”可知，Polite Type字体的特别之处在于它由单词和符号组成。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used.(该字体的词库包含了来自不同起源、宗教和世界观的语言，并将随着更多个人和企业的使用而做出调整。未来，TietoEVRY 公司表示，机器学习可用于教会该字体理解语言的使用方式)”可知，未来Polite Type字体会不断更新。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,” said Kia Haring, global head of communication and sustainability at TietoEVRY. “I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.”(TietoEVRY 公司全球沟通与可持续发展主管起亚・哈林表示：“我们希望欺凌者重新思考他们使用的词语以及这些词语背后的真正含义。我希望我们所做的事情能给所有受众敲响警钟，让他们思考如何应对欺凌行为。”)”可知，起亚・哈林认为创建Polite Type字体是很有效果的，作用是鼓舞人心的。Inspiring表示“鼓舞人心的”，符合起亚・哈林对该字体的看法。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“An IT company from Finland has developed a new font (字体) which uses machine learning to rewrite bad language into kinder words.(芬兰的一家信息技术公司开发了一种新字体，该字体利用机器学习将恶语改写为更友善的话语)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一款旨在对抗网络欺凌的字体。“A font designed to fight online bullying(一种旨在打击网络欺凌的字体)”作为标题最合适。故选A。 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Bathed in two cultures from childhood, moving around the world and experiencing different cultures has always been my thing.

Every October, my neighborhood has a Halloween costume contest with a different theme. And every October, my neighbor Ollie and I race to the announcement board in the park to find it out. But this year, the theme was kind of, well, theme-less. “‘Be creative’?” I said, reading the announcement board. “That’s not really a theme, is it?” Ollie hopped off (跳下) his skateboard to get a closer look. “You’re right,” he agreed. “Now that’s the creative spirit we need for this challenge!” I proposed that we should start by choosing some cool costume - making materials. Just at that time, Ollie scooped up (捧起) a bunch of fallen leaves and exclaimed he had got a brilliant idea. Seized by confusion, I asked, “You’re going to make an entire costume out of leaves?” Seemed to be amused by my look, he grinned and scooped up some more. “Why not?” he said, “They’ re totally free, and I can guarantee, no one will be a tree as great as me.” Upon hearing that, I added that now that was the creative spirit We need for this challenge! “Aw, come on,” I said. “You should be flattered that I like your idea so much. Plus, I just thought of the perfect way to make branches.” Luckily, Ollie said OK. We ended up filling two jumbo bags with different kinds of leaves. Ollie’s grandma helped get us set up with tons of excellent costume-making supplies, and we worked forever! At last, when we were finally in the homestretch, I complained. “I’m so tired of gluing leaves.” When we were done, we tried on part of our costumes, and we could tell they really would be fantastic. It took us hours to get ready the next morning, and we probably lost half our leaves shuffling over to the park. Still, when it was time for contestants to line up in the judging area, I felt pretty proud. However, after a few minutes, I started having another feeling. As I was standing there in the costume, the feeling got worse, and worse, and worse until I was so itchy (痒), I just had to scratch (挠). I started wiggling (摇动；扭动) around uncomfortably. 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。 Paragraph1: And when I looked over at Ollie, he was doing the same thing! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: At that moment, Mr. Lee, the host of this year’s Halloween costume contest, called for everyone’s attention. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 And when I looked over at Ollie, he was doing the same thing! “This is the worst!” he whispered as he wiggled. “I feel like I’ m covered with a million mosquito bites.” “Me too,” I whispered back. “I wanted to get out of this costume right away!” But after exchanging a look with each other, we still hesitated since the result of the “creative” contest had not been announced and we were afraid that what we did before would make no sense. Overwhelmed by the nervousness and tolerating the strong itchy feelings, we just kept wiggling around, with our “leaves” trembling uncontrollably. At that moment Mr. Lee, the host of this year’s Halloween costume contest, called for everyone’s attention. “The winners of our ‘Be Creative’ costume contest are these two magnificent trees!” he announced excitedly with a beaming face. “Fabulous work!” he added and praised that they especially liked the little dance that made it look as if our leaves were rustling in the wind. The great news was, we actually won the contest! The not-so-great news came when we found out why we were so itchy — one of the many kinds of leaves we gathered turned out to be poison oak! What an unforgettable Halloween costume contest! 【解析】 【导语】本文以一次万圣节服装比赛为线索展开，讲述了作者和邻居Ollie用落叶制作“树人”造型的服装参赛，并在过程中经历身体不适但最终获奖的故事。尽管他们的创意服装让他们奇痒难忍，但他们坚持到底并意外获胜，最后发现瘙痒是因误用了毒藤叶，从而成就了一次难忘的经历。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当我看Ollie的时候，他也在做同样的事情！”可知，第一段可描写两人因穿着叶子服装而感到瘙痒难忍但仍坚持等待比赛结果的心理活动和行为表现。。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在那一刻，今年万圣节服装大赛的主持人Mr. Lee呼吁大家注意。”可知，第二段可描写主持人宣布他们获奖的过程以及揭示瘙痒原因的情节，突出故事的戏剧性和幽默感。 2. 续写线索：瘙痒难忍——相视苦笑却不愿放弃——强忍等待主持人宣布获奖——惊喜万分——揭示真相（毒藤叶）——难忘的比赛 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①耳语：whispered/murmured/said in a low voice ②交换表情：exchanging a look/making eye contact/looking at each other silently ③宣布：announce/declare/proclaim ④聚集：gathered/collected 情绪类 ①紧张：nervousness/anxiety/tension/unease ②兴奋地：excitedly/enthusiastically 【点睛】【高分句型1】But after exchanging a look with each other, we still hesitated since the result of the “creative” contest had not been announced and we were afraid that what we did before would make no sense.(运用了since引导的原因状语从句、that引导的宾语从句和what引导的主语从句) 【高分句型2】The not-so-great news came when we found out why we were so itchy — one of the many kinds of leaves we gathered turned out to be poison oak!(运用了when引导的时间状语从句、why引导的宾语从句和省略了引导词的定语从句修饰名词leaves) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 保密★考试结束前 六校联盟2024学年第二学期期中联考（2025.04） 高二英语试题卷 考生须知： 1. 考试范围：选择性必修二Unit4-选择性必修三Unit3 2. 本试题卷分选择题和非选择题两部分；全卷共8页，满分150分；考试时间120分钟。 3. 考生答题前，务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔填写在答题纸上。 选择题部分（共95分） 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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 is Kate doing?

There was a lot of yelling, not a lot of talking and events swirled around me so fast that it made me feel uncomfortable in my own skin. I didn’t feel seen. I didn’t feel heard. I didn’t think anyone wanted to know what I thought or what I needed or gave me tools to deal with how I was feeling. Then I met someone who changed all that. For an hour every day I would sit as close as I could watch the television show, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. But it was more than a television show to me. It was a visit with a smart, kind friend who looked directly at me, through the camera. The way he spoke to me, calmly, quietly and slowly, made me feel respected, even though I was just a kid. He talked about things that I was interested in. Also, he talked about tough things, like being angry, and gave me some tools as to what to do, instead of telling me to “just get over it already”. Mister Rogers saved me as a kid, but what I didn’t realize was how much he helped me as an adult. As an adult, I can remember back to some of the thoughts, feelings, tools and lessons I learned. I value having people in my real life make me feel special, and who like me just the way I am. I take note of small things every day that bring me happiness. It’s the little things that I know now make a big impact. When I was on a plane recently, a stranger helped me put my luggage in the overhead bin. He looked me in my eyes, smiled and said, “No worries, I got you.” That small little phrase is now one of my favorites. I value my husband for wanting to hear about my day and is truly interested in how I feel about it. I have always taken note of these small behaviors and call them my little life clues. They are small but mighty, much like the kids that I now talk to everyday. Mister Rogers made an impact on me as a child — and an adult — so much so that I now dedicate my life to creating shows for kids that have stories chock full of these little life lessons. But what I realize now about my work is that kids are the containers, but it’s the adults that they become that I want to benefit. I want all of us adults to remember the little things and use the life clues to bring them happiness so we can all live our very best lives. 24. What can we know about Mister Roger according to the passage? A. He is a real person near my family. B. He is the host of a television show. C. He only talked about interesting things with me. D. He treated me just like a kid. 25. Why did Mister Roger make a big impact on “me”? A. He kept communicating with me all the time. B. He taught me a lot of truths in a serious manner. C. He has the same family background with me. D. He treated me with respect and brought great happiness. 26. Why does the writer mention those examples in paragraph 4? A. To prove an idea. B. To present a phenomenon. C. To give some details. D. To lead in some arguments. 27. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To tell a story how the writer changed her attitude towards life. B. To appeal to adults to spread daily and tiny happiness to the children. C. To share her poor and miserable life as a child. D. To introduce an inspiring and interesting television show. C Why is the elephant trunk (鼻子) so wrinkly? In a new study in the journal Royal Society Open Science, researchers offer up some answers. This all started when Michael Brecht, a neurobiologist at Humboldt University in Berlin, and his colleagues were studying the brains of African savannah elephants and Asian elephants when they noticed a bump on each of the brain stems the size of a fava bean. “It’s very unusual. It looks very different from all other mammals,” Brecht says. It soon became clear to the researchers that the number of stripes — each one a bundle of nerve fibers — corresponded nearly exactly to the number of wrinkles in the elephant’s trunk This discovery motivated him to take a closer look. First, Brecht and his team tracked down photographs of elephant fetuses (胎儿) to examine how the trunk develops. “It’s an incredibly fast growing body part, more than any other body part,” Brecht says. A couple months into development, the fetal trunk has about four wrinkles — at which point there’s sudden exponential growth. “Every 20 days, the number of wrinkles doubles,” he says. After a few months, things slow down. “African savannah elephants only add relatively few wrinkles in adulthood,” Brecht says. “In Asian elephants, there are noticeably more wrinkles added.” Brecht suspects this may be due to differences in how the two groups of elephants use their trunks for grasping. African savannah elephants use the tips of their trunks to pinch objects, pick them up and manipulate them. Asian elephants can do some pinching. “But when you give them a big fruit like a melon or a mango,” says Brecht, “they wrap their trunk around the object. So our thinking is that the wrinkles serve for making the trunk flexible.” Brecht also used a micro-CT scanner to look at newborn trunks in detail. He found that the skin is super thin in the troughs of the wrinkles, allowing them essentially to behave like joints. Maëlle Lefeuvre, a behavioral ecology doctoral student at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, thinks there may be engineering lessons to learn from these findings. Lafeuvre says understanding wrinkle formation and function could help inform the construction of a flexible and powerful trunk-like machine or robotic arm, for example. For Brecht, the findings reinforce how these body parts are exquisitely honed to help giant creatures feed, wherever they may live. “You cannot be such a big animal without being very heavily specialized,” he says. 28. What did Brecht’s study originally focus on? A. Wrinkles on elephants’ trunks. B. The brain of two kinds of elephants. C. The brain of mammals. D. Elephant fetuses. 29. What do we know about Brecht’s study of elephant fetuses? A. The increase of the number of wrinkles keeps the same speed. B. The trunk develops slower than other parts in elephant fetuses. C. The number of wrinkles rockets up in the first few months. D. The number of wrinkles doesn’t change. 30. What led to the difference of wrinkles between African savannah elephants and Asian elephants? A. The living environment. B. The food. C. The training. D. The use of the trunks. 31. What is Lafeuvre’s suggestions? A. Use the knowledge acquired from elephants’ trunks to engineering. B. Do more studies on the development of elephant fetus’s trunks. C. Apply the knowledge from Brecht’s study to elephant feeding. D. Track the development of trunks in adult elephants. D An IT company from Finland has developed a new font (字体) which uses machine learning to rewrite bad language into kinder words. More than a third of bullying takes place online, and the numbers are on the rise, according to a report by the United Nations’ educational organization UNESCO. TietoEVRY developed the Polite Type font as a new tool to deal with online bullying among kids, pointing out harmful language and causing users to pick kinder words. As users try to write hurtful English words, the font will automatically replace them. Writing “I hate you” would, for example, result in the milder “I disagree with you” when Polite Type is used on the computer. Sentences such as “you are ugly” is replaced with “you are not traditionally beautiful” while rude words are blurred completely. The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package. Racial slurs (种族歧视语) are replaced with the racial group the slur is related to, rather than blurring the word entirely. The vocabulary of the font was co-created with teenagers from Finland. The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used. Polite Type can be now downloaded and used for free. “We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,” said Kia Haring, global head of communication and sustainability at TietoEVRY. “I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.” 32. What is special about the Polite Type font according to the text? A. It includes a wider vocabulary. B. It hides all the unusual expressions. C. It consists of words and symbols. D. It prefers long sentences to short ones. 33. What can we expect of the Polite Type font in the Future? A. It will have more words blurred. B. It will be constantly updated. C. More racial groups will use it. D. Users will be charged with using it. 34. What does Kia Haring think of creating the Polite Type font? A. Inspiring. B. Unsuccessful. C. appealing. D. Imperfect. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. A font designed to fight online bullying B. Polite Type: the self-developing font C. Show others kindness by using a new font D. A font automatically avoids racial slurs 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Bathed in two cultures from childhood, moving around the world and experiencing different cultures has always been my thing.

Every October, my neighborhood has a Halloween costume contest with a different theme. And every October, my neighbor Ollie and I race to the announcement board in the park to find it out. But this year, the theme was kind of, well, theme-less. “‘Be creative’?” I said, reading the announcement board. “That’s not really a theme, is it?” Ollie hopped off (跳下) his skateboard to get a closer look. “You’re right,” he agreed. “Now that’s the creative spirit we need for this challenge!” I proposed that we should start by choosing some cool costume - making materials. Just at that time, Ollie scooped up (捧起) a bunch of fallen leaves and exclaimed he had got a brilliant idea. Seized by confusion, I asked, “You’re going to make an entire costume out of leaves?” Seemed to be amused by my look, he grinned and scooped up some more. “Why not?” he said, “They’ re totally free, and I can guarantee, no one will be a tree as great as me.” Upon hearing that, I added that now that was the creative spirit We need for this challenge! “Aw, come on,” I said. “You should be flattered that I like your idea so much. Plus, I just thought of the perfect way to make branches.” Luckily, Ollie said OK. We ended up filling two jumbo bags with different kinds of leaves. Ollie’s grandma helped get us set up with tons of excellent costume-making supplies, and we worked forever! At last, when we were finally in the homestretch, I complained. “I’m so tired of gluing leaves.” When we were done we tried on part of our costumes, and we could tell they really would be fantastic. It took us hours to get ready the next morning, and we probably lost half our leaves shuffling over to the park.
