He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet. When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore. He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family. “I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head. “You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife. They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.” When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up. “I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.” “My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift.” “I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.” 24. Edward expected to ________ with the money he got from his father. A. help the poor family B. buy something to eat C buy some pretty books D. learn another language 25. Why did the poor man shake his head when Edward spoke to him? A. He couldn’t understand the boy B. He wouldn’t accept the money C. He didn’t like the boy’s language D. He was too cold to say anything 26. How much did Edward give the poor family? A. One dollar B. Two dollars C. Three dollars D. Four dollars 27. We know that Edward ________ from the passage? A. got a prize for his kind heart B. had to buy his books next year C. bought the books at the bookstore D. got more money from his father 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了小男孩Edward在新年当天收到了爸爸给他的两美元的祝福，在他非常开心地去书店购买期盼已久的图书的路上，他遇到了一家很久没有东西吃的穷人，Edward毫不犹豫地把钱送给了他们。他的行为得到了爸爸的赞许和支持。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.”（很长一段时间以来，他一直想买一些他在书店里看到的漂亮的书。）和第四段“He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books.”（他心情愉快地离开了家，期待着去买书。）可知，Edward期待用爸爸给的钱买一些漂亮的书。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language.”（那人又摇了摇头，因为他听不懂，也不会说他的语言。）可知，那个男人在Edward对他说话时摇头，是因为他听不懂Edward说的话。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段“He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.”（他拿出自己的钱，一美元给了那个男人，另一美元给了男人的妻子。）可知，Edward一共给了这家人两美元。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段爸爸的话“here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift.”（这里有几本书送给你，与其说是作为新年礼物，不如说是对你善良心灵的奖励。）可知，Edward因自己的善心得到了爸爸的奖励。故选A。 C Right now you probably spend most of your time in school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life. What kind of job would be right for you? Think about your interests and your skills. You may like to listen to music, dance, play basketball, or work with computers. You may know how to drive a car or how to get along with people. Knowing both your interests and skills will help make a better plan for your career. To get an idea of what work you would like to do, make a list of your interests and a list of your skills. Think about what you have done to be successful in your interests. After that, brainstorm a list of career choices that might match your interests and skills. You can later keep your lists with the projects and documents (文件) that can help you achieve the career you want. They can help you know more clearly about your achievements in school and in the world of work. Roberta Zhan, an art designer, finds her work satisfying because it allows her to use her interests and skills. She enjoyed imagining something in her minds eye while she was in school. She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own. Here is what she says about the meaning of work: “If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money. It means using your talents, making a contribution (贡献), and getting a real sense of satisfaction from doing a job.” 28. The passage is most probably written to________. A. students B. teachers C. parents D. designers 29. At the beginning, the writer introduces the topic of the passage by________.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了高中生毕业后如何为未来做准备的方法，提到了要根据自己的兴趣和技能来规划职业，列出了自己的兴趣和技能，并思考如何在自己的兴趣中取得成功。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Right now you probably spend most of your time in school.(现在你可能大部分时间都在学校。)”和文章第二段“What kind of job would be right for you?(什么样的工作适合你？)”可知，这篇文章最有可能是写给学生的。故选A。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Right now you probably spend most of your time in school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life.(现在你可能大部分时间都在学校。你想知道高中毕业后你要做什么吗？你还会继续上学吗？你要学一门手艺吗？也许是时候考虑你的选择并为之做好准备了。总有一天，工作将成为你生活的重要组成部分。)”可知，作者通过提问的方式引入了文章的主题。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own.(她参加了艺术、设计和计算机课程，还学会了自己拍照。)”可知，Roberta Zhan在学校时学过艺术、设计和计算机课程，并且自学了摄影。因此，她可能最感兴趣的是创作图片。故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了高中生毕业后如何为未来做准备的方法，提到了要根据自己的兴趣和技能来规划职业，列出了自己的兴趣和技能，并思考如何在自己的兴趣中取得成功。因此，文章主要是关于为未来做准备的方法。选项D“为未来做准备的方式”符合文章主旨。故选D。 D As we all know, our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot. Robots of various shapes have been designed to collect garbage that they find floating in the ocean. For example, the French company IADMEEYS has developed what it calls the jellyfishbot. This small robot gathers up everything it meets, including liquid hydrocarbons (碳氢化合物) such as gasoline and oil. The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled and can clean up to 1,000 square meters per hour. The jellyfishbots’ small size and ability to be easily controlled make them ideal for cleaning up crowded areas such as ports. For larger, more open areas, a much larger robot called the Interceptor has a similar function. Designed for use on rivers, the Interceptor looks like a boat with a conveyor belt (传送带) that picks up trash. Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities. The Interceptor’s name comes from the verb intercept because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean. Most of the garbage in the oceans comes down rivers. Cleaning up trash that litters the ocean is good, but to keep the oceans clean, new garbage must be kept from getting there. Therefore, the Interceptor is used to prevent pollution before it enters the ocean. The Interceptor is completely solar-powered and operates on its own, which minimizes the need for human involvement. Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand. Hopefully they can be a big part of the solution to ocean pollution. 32. The author writes the first paragraph mainly to ______. A. make a definition B. explain the argument C. lead in the topic D. make a comparison 33. What do the jellyfishbot and the Interceptor have in common? A. They are both solar-powered. B. They need no human operation. C. They can only clean up the crowded ports. D. They can play a role in solving ocean pollution. 34. What does the underlined word “intercept” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Check. B. Stop. C. Sort. D. Collect. 35. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Severe Ocean Pollution B. The Development of the Robot C. The Hug e Damage to Ocean Creatures D. The Promising Tool to Ocean Pollution 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是处理海洋垃圾的机器人的相关情况。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“As we all know, our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot.(我们都知道，我们的海洋充满了垃圾。破碎的物体，用过的塑料瓶等填满了我们的海滩，覆盖了海底，对海洋生物造成了巨大的伤害。许多个人和组织都在努力清除这些垃圾，最近的技术发展为他们提供了一种新的工具：吃垃圾的机器人)”可知，第一段的目的是通过讲述海洋污染引出主题——吃垃圾的机器人。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled and can clean up to 1,000 square meters per hour.(水母机器人是远程控制的，每小时可以清理1000平方米的垃圾)”和第三段的“Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities.(一旦传感器显示垃圾桶已满，拦截器就会自动向岸上操作人员发送信息。这些操作人员收集并清空垃圾桶，将垃圾送到当地的垃圾管理设施。)”可知，水母机器人和拦截器的共同点在于它们都是远程控制的，故选D项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段的“because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean.(因为它的目的是防止垃圾进入海洋)”可知，划线词所在的句子的意思是“拦截器的名字来源于动词拦截，因为它的目的是防止垃圾进入海洋”，因此intercept的意思是“防止，阻止”，和stop意思相近，故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Robots of various shapes have been designed to collect garbage that they find floating in the ocean.(各种形状的机器人被设计用来收集漂浮在海洋中的垃圾)”以及最后一段“Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand. Hopefully, they can be a big part of the solution to ocean pollution.(机器人能够清理大量垃圾，而无需人类手工清理海滩。希望它们能成为海洋污染解决方案的重要组成部分)”以及纵观全文可知，本文介绍的是处理海洋垃圾的机器人的相关情况，所以D项“The Promising Tool to Ocean Pollution(有希望的海洋污染治理工具)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。 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。 Like working out or eating healthily, being happy is something you have to work on. ____36____The good news is that a growing body of research shows there are simple things you can do to help you learn how to be happy at work, and they don’t require huge changes. ____37____ It affects how you feel at work for the rest of the day. In one study, researchers analyzed the moods and performance of customer service representatives. Those who were in a good mood in the morning were more productive during the day and reported having more positive interactions with customers. ____38____ You can take a few minutes to enjoy your morning coffee and you can get some fresh air. One of the hardest aspects of your job is perhaps making dozens of decisions daily, often with little or incomplete information. So how can you make fewer decisions? Put some parts of your day on autopilot. For example, have the same thing for lunch or breakfast for a week. Then you can change it up the following work. ____39____ Steve Jobs said that he wore the same clothes daily so that he wouldn’t have to spend energy deciding what to wear. Helping others makes you happier. Helping your co-workers seems to create a virtuous cycle. Another study says happier workers are 33% more likely to help their colleagues than those who aren’t happy. ____40____ Grab your colleague’s favorite drink when you get your coffee. Ask if they need help on a project. Offer to do something simple, like type up notes after a meeting. A. It’s a skill that takes practice. B. How you feel in the morning really matters a lot. C. You don’t have to do anything huge or heroic to help. D. You’ve just removed a bunch of decisions from your day. E. You can write down three small things you will get done. F. So do something in the morning that makes you feel good. G. One simple way to do this is to put a reminder on your calendar. 【答案】36. A 37. B 38. F 39. D 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章从不同的角度介绍了如何让自己在职场中保持快乐的心情。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Like working out or eating healthily, being happy is something you have to work on.(就像锻炼或健康饮食一样，快乐是你必须努力的事情)”可知，上文把快乐和锻炼、健康饮食进行比较，推测本句是在说明其相似之处，即保持快乐的心情就像锻炼身体和健康饮食一样需要你努力去做，这与 A 项中“takes practice”呼应。故A选项“这是一项需要练习的技能”符合语境，故选A。 【37题详解】 根据后文“It affects how you feel at work for the rest of the day.(它会影响你在一天剩下时间里对工作的感觉)”以及“Those who were in a good mood in the morning were more productive during the day and reported having more positive interactions with customers.(那些早上心情好的人白天工作效率更高，与顾客的互动也更积极)”可知，本段主要讲述的是早上的心情会对一天的工作产生影响，B项是对本段中心的概述，是本段的主旨句。故B选项“你早上的感觉真的很重要”符合语境，故选B。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Those who were in a good mood in the morning were more productive during the day and reported having more positive interactions with customers.(那些早上心情好的人白天工作效率更高，与顾客的互动也更积极)”以及后文“You can take a few minutes to enjoy your morning coffee and you can get some fresh air. (你可以花几分钟享受你的早晨咖啡，你可以呼吸一些新鲜空气)”可知，早上心情好对一天的工作会产生积极的影响，设空后的“enjoy your morning coffee”和“get some fresh air”是使人早上心情好的具体事例。F项中的“So”承接上文，“makes you feel good”又与下文的事例呼应，起到承上启下的作用。故F选项“所以早上做一些让你感觉良好的事情”符合语境，故选F。 【39题详解】 根据本段第二句“So how can you make fewer decisions?(那么，怎样才能少做决定呢？)”可知，此处是说如何做出较少的决定。根据本段举的例子“For example, have the same thing for lunch or breakfast for a week. Then you can change it up the following work.(例如，一周的午餐或早餐都吃同样的东西。然后你可以在接下来的工作中对其进行更改)”可知，你可以提前定好每周的计划，到下一周再进行更改，而D项内容是这样做产生的结果，即避免了一天中做很多选择。故D选项“你刚刚从你的一天中删除了一堆决定”符合语境，故选D。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Helping others makes you happier. Helping your co-workers seems to create a virtuous cycle. Another study says happier workers are 33% more likely to help their colleagues than those who aren’t happy.(帮助别人会让你更快乐。帮助你的同事似乎创造了一个良性循环。另一项研究表明，快乐的员工比不快乐的员工更有可能帮助同事)”可知，帮助自己的同事会让自己高兴，下文“Grab your colleague’s favorite drink when you get your coffee. Ask if they need help on a project. Offer to do something simple, like type up notes after a meeting.(喝咖啡的时候，带上你同事最喜欢的饮料。询问他们在某个项目上是否需要帮助。主动做一些简单的事情，比如在会议结束后打印笔记)”表示一些小事就能让他们高兴。故C选项“你不需要做什么巨大的或英雄般的事情来帮助”符合语境。故选C。 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。 I loved being home with my little babies, but I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders.

He was very sick and they were struggling to make their ends meet. Only a very costly operation could save Jack, but there was no one to lend them the money. She heard her dad say to her tearful mom, “Only a miracle can save him now.” Hearing the word, Grace went to her bedroom, took all the coins from her little money box and counted it carefully. After counting the coins three times, She slipped out of the room and made her way to the drug store. She wanted for a long time before the female pharmacist (药剂师) turned around and asked her, “What do you want?” “Well, it’s about my brother,” Grace answered, “He’s really sick. And I want to buy a miracle.” “I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist. “His name is Jack. And he has something very bad growing inside his body. And my dad says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I am sorry. I can’t help you.” the pharmacist said “I have the money to pay for it.” With these words, Grace poured out all the coins from her pocket. At this time, a well-dressed man in uniform from Chicago hospital asked the little girl. “I am selling the miracle you want. Tell me how much money you have.” “47 cents.” Grace answered in a low voice. “That’s all the money I have. But I can get some more if I need to.” “Well.” smiled the man, “47 cents is the exact price of a miracle for your little brother. Show me the place where you live.” 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。 Holding the man’s hand firmly, Grace took him home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The operation was completed successfully. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Holding the man’s hand firmly, Grace took him home. The little girl walked in such a hurry that she even forgot to introduce herself to the man. Her parents were too surprised to believe their eyes. That well-dressed man turned out to be a surgeon, specializing in neural surgery. He promised to do the operation for Jack. The whole family were more than happy and couldn’t utter a single word. Later, Jack was taken to the hospital to take the operation he needed. The operation was completed successfully. The whole family were grateful to the man. With payment of 47 cents, Grace knew the exact price of a miracle: 47 cents, plus the faith of a little child. When asked why he chose to help the family, the man detailed, “I was once in the same situation as the little baby. It was my own sister who saved my life. Grace reminded me of her, so I decided to help Grace. It doesn’t matter how much money she actually had with her, what matters is her faith that miracles do exist. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小女孩Grace听到父母谈论弟弟Jack病重，需要奇迹才能救他。她带着所有积蓄去药店买奇迹。一位善良的医生出现了，说奇迹的价格正好是Grace的钱——47美分，并承诺救治Jack。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“格蕾丝紧紧地握着那人的手，把他带回家。”可知，第一段可描写格蕾丝的父母感觉惊讶，男人答应为杰克做手术。 ②由第二段首句内容“手术已经成功完成。”可知，第二段可描写男人解释帮助格蕾丝的原因。 2.续写线索：格蕾丝带男人回家——男人答应做手术——杰克去做手术——手术完成，家人感激——男人解释原因——相信奇迹存在 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①相信：believe/have faith in ②知道：know/be aware of ③决定做：decide to do/determine to do/make up one’s mind to do 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②开心的：happy/pleased 【点睛】【高分句型1】The little girl walked in such a hurry that she even forgot to introduce herself to the man.（运用了such...that引导的结果状语从句） 【高分句型2】Later, Jack was taken to the hospital to take the operation he needed.（运用了省略that引导的限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024学年第二学期期末考试 高二英语试题 注意事项： 1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 第一部分听力 （1-20小题，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) 例:How much is the shirt?

B Edward rose early on the New-year morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet. When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore. He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family. “I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head. “You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife. They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.” When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up. “I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.” “My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift.” “I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.” 24. Edward expected to ________ with the money he got from his father. A. help the poor family B. buy something to eat C. buy some pretty books D. learn another language 25. Why did the poor man shake his head when Edward spoke to him? A. He couldn’t understand the boy B. He wouldn’t accept the money C He didn’t like the boy’s language D. He was too cold to say anything 26. How much did Edward give the poor family? A. One dollar B. Two dollars C. Three dollars D. Four dollars 27. We know that Edward ________ from the passage? A. got a prize for his kind heart B. had to buy his books next year C. bought the books at the bookstore D. got more money from his father C Right now you probably spend most of your time in school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life. What kind of job would be right for you? Think about your interests and your skills. You may like to listen to music, dance, play basketball, or work with computers. You may know how to drive a car or how to get along with people. Knowing both your interests and skills will help make a better plan for your career. To get an idea of what work you would like to do, make a list of your interests and a list of your skills. Think about what you have done to be successful in your interests. After that, brainstorm a list of career choices that might match your interests and skills. You can later keep your lists with the projects and documents (文件) that can help you achieve the career you want. They can help you know more clearly about your achievements in school and in the world of work. Roberta Zhan, an art designer, finds her work satisfying because it allows her to use her interests and skills. She enjoyed imagining something in her minds eye while she was in school. She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own. Here is what she says about the meaning of work: “If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money. It means using your talents, making a contribution (贡献), and getting a real sense of satisfaction from doing a job.” 28. The passage is most probably written to________. A. students B. teachers C. parents D. designers 29. At the beginning the writer introduces the topic of the passage by________. A. listing facts B. giving examples C. asking questions D. explaining differences 30. Roberta Zhan might be most interested in when she was at school________. A. singing songs B. creating pictures C. playing basketball D. playing computer games 31. The passage is mainly about________. A. the real meaning of work B. the importance of interests and skills C. the journey of Roberta’s life D. the way of preparing for the future D As we all know, our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot. Robots of various shapes have been designed to collect garbage that they find floating in the ocean. For example, the French company IADMEEYS has developed what it calls the jellyfishbot. This small robot gathers up everything it meets, including liquid hydrocarbons (碳氢化合物) such as gasoline and oil. The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled and can clean up to 1,000 square meters per hour. The jellyfishbots’ small size and ability to be easily controlled make them ideal for cleaning up crowded areas such as ports. For larger, more open areas, a much larger robot called the Interceptor has a similar function. Designed for use on rivers, the Interceptor looks like a boat with a conveyor belt (传送带) that picks up trash. Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities. The Interceptor’s name comes from the verb intercept because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean. Most of the garbage in the oceans comes down rivers. Cleaning up trash that litters the ocean is good, but to keep the oceans clean, new garbage must be kept from getting there. Therefore, the Interceptor is used to prevent pollution before it enters the ocean. The Interceptor is completely solar-powered and operates on its own, which minimizes the need for human involvement. Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand. Hopefully, they can be a big part of the solution to ocean pollution. 32. The author writes the first paragraph mainly to ______. A. make a definition B. explain the argument C. lead in the topic D. make a comparison 33. What do the jellyfishbot and the Interceptor have in common? A. They are both solar-powered. B. They need no human operation. C. They can only clean up the crowded ports. D. They can play a role in solving ocean pollution. 34. What does the underlined word “intercept” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Check. B. Stop. C. Sort. D. Collect. 35. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Severe Ocean Pollution B. The Development of the Robot C. The Hug e Damage to Ocean Creatures D. The Promising Tool to Ocean Pollution 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。 Like working out or eating healthily, being happy is something you have to work on. ____36____The good news is that a growing body of research shows there are simple things you can do to help you learn how to be happy at work, and they don’t require huge changes. ____37____ It affects how you feel at work for the rest of the day.

She heard her dad say to her tearful mom, “Only a miracle can save him now.” Hearing the word, Grace went to her bedroom, took all the coins from her little money box and counted it carefully. After counting the coins three times, She slipped out of the room and made her way to the drug store. She wanted for a long time before the female pharmacist (药剂师) turned around and asked her, “What do you want?” “Well, it’s about my brother,” Grace answered, “He’s really sick. And I want to buy a miracle.” “I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist. “His name is Jack. And he has something very bad growing inside his body. And my dad says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I am sorry. I can’t help you.” the pharmacist said “I have the money to pay for it.” With these words, Grace poured out all the coins from her pocket. At this time, a well-dressed man in uniform from Chicago hospital asked the little girl. “I am selling the miracle you want. Tell me how much money you have.” “47 cents.” Grace answered in a low voice. “That’s all the money I have. But I can get some more if I need to.” “Well.” smiled the man, “47 cents is the exact price of a miracle for your little brother.
