Square Root Day It’s celebrated on a day where the first two digits in the date are the square root of the last two digits. Only date formats (格式) that have the month and date first and the last two digits of the year last(mm/dd/yy, m/d/yy, dd/mm/yy or d/m/yy) can have Square Root Days. Ron Gordon, an American high school teacher, created this unofficial holiday. Yellow Pig Day July 17 is Yellow Pig Day. Despite its name, the day is not a celebration for pigs, but a celebration of the number 17. The unofficial holiday was created in the early 1960s by Princeton mathematics students, David Kelly and Michael Spivak, while working on the special properties of the number 17. e-Day e-Day celebrates the mathematical constant (常数) e, which has a value of 2.7182818. It is celebrated on February 7 in countries that follow the month/day (m/d) date format. This is because the first two digits of the date — 2/7 — correspond to the first two digits of the constant. Fibonacci Day This annual holiday is created to remember one of the most influential mathematicians of the Middle Ages — Leonardo Bonacci. It falls on November 23 because when the date is written in the mm/dd format (11/23), the digits in the date form a Fibonacci sequence: 1,1,2,3, which is a series of numbers where a number is the sum of the two numbers before it. For example: 1,1,2,3… is a Fibonacci sequence. Here, 2 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+1). Similarly, 3 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+2). 21．Which of the following is Square Root Day of 2025? A．On March 3 rd. B．On April 4th. C．On May 5th. D．On June 6th. 22．Which honors a famous person? A．Square Root Day. B．Fibonacci Day. C．Yellow Pig Day. D．e-Day. 23．What do the listed holidays have in common? A．They were created by the same person. B．They are celebrated every other year. C．They are recognized by authorities. D．They have much to do with math. B )One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 24．What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A．Asked others about it. B．Learned something about it. C．Spent three hours researching it. D．Rented a boat. 25．What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Forbidden. B．Allowed. C．Charged. D．Limited. 26．What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A．It sits on the top of a hill. B．It is the largest stage all over China. C．It was for royalty to watch performances. D．Operas are performed there at times. 27．Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A．She took a boat by herself. B．She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C．She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D．She only toured part of the Summer Palace. C Billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday announced that he has formed a new artificial intelligence (AI) company, xAI, which has employed researchers from Google, OpenAI and other top technology companies. The goal, Musk tweeted, is “to understand reality.” Musk isn’t a novice to AI given that Tesla uses the technology in its cars. While xAI didn’t mention what projects it will be working on, the company noted that its team of 11 researchers are draw n from top tech companies such as Microsoft Research, OpenAI and Google. Musk suggested that the reason he picked July 12, 2023, to announce the start of xAI is connected with a science fiction classic, Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. In his tweet, he noted that adding the date 7-12-23 equals 42, which the work of the fiction famously assumes is the answer to life. The company said it will be advised by Dan Hendrycks, director of the Center for AI Safety. Hendrycks pointed out where AI could cause problems. “AIs could be used by bad people to make new deadly bioweapons,” Hendrycks said in May. “Or people could make AI that tries to hurt people on purpose. If this AI was really smart, it could be a big danger to all of us.” The first time xAI was shown to the public was after Musk talked about it in April to the former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Musk told Carlson that OpenAI’s ChatGPT was a bit restricted and that he wanted to create a different tool that would be a super honest AI that tries to learn how everything in the world works. The startup reflected Musk’s long-voiced concerns about a future in which AI systems could present an existential risk to humanity. Musk said the idea is that an AI that wants to understand humanity is less likely to des troy it. 28. What does the underlined word “novice” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Director. B. Supporter. C. Partner. D. Beginner. 29. Why is Douglas Adams mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. He was a friend of Musk. B. His book was very famous. C. He was a guide of the start of xAI. D. He was connected with the announcing date. 30. Why did Musk talk to Tucker Carlson? A. To make xAI popular. B. To explain why he started xAI. C. To show how xAI works. D. To criticize OpenAI’s ChatGPT. 31. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Creating an honest AI is Musk’s dream. B. It is difficult to control AI systems. C. Musk worries about the danger of AI. D. AI has trouble understanding humanity. D Do you ever wonder about what the term “locally-grown food” means? Do you wonder where your food comes from? Locally-grown food and sustainability are on the rise, and it’s important to know why this trend in farming matters. Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. Much of what gets to their table depends on what comes to use by ship. Sometimes, one notices there is no milk or other product left at the grocery story because there is a problem with a barge (驳船). Steven Chiang, a professor from University of Hawaii, pointed out that in Hawaii, the cost of labor is high for people who might want to farm the land. Since many different groups or individuals own small pieces of land, getting access to farmland is also difficult. However, Chiang added, “there are many benefits to growing food locally on the islands and elsewhere.” For one, they can hold onto traditions and the types of food they like. Food in soil will have the chance to mature more, and maybe absorb more nutrition. Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. Also, plants can extract the carbon dioxide in the air, benefiting the environment. Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. “Having local food helps make people aware of where their food comes from,” he said. When people are disconnected from the food system and don’t know where their food comes from, there’s a tendency to make potentially negative choices. “Because we’re so efficient at shipping and importing,” he added, “We don’t realize or know what it takes, and that can lead to poor decisions that can harm us all.” So what can you do? In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! 32. What can be inferred about Hawaii’s food supply? A. Hawaii relies heavily on imported food. B. Hawaii’s cost of living is low for farmers. C. Hawaii’s grocery stores are often short of milk. D. Hawaii’s farmland is enough for all local needs. 33. Which is a benefit of growing food locally? A. Lowering the cost of local labor. B. Increasing the variety of imported food. C. Preserving land for non-agricultural use. D. Offering quick access to imported food. 34. What is Chiang’s attitude towards locally-grown food? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Undecided. D. Favorable. 35. What is the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To encourage gardening at home. B. To advocate sustainable practices. C. To promote local farming in Hawaii. D. To discourage buying imported food. 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。 First-aid kits are most commonly used for minor injuries like cuts, but they can also help you in less-common emergency situations, such as heart attacks or life-threatening bleeding. _____36_____ Buy the right container Your first-aid items should be kept in a waterproof bag or an airtight container with clear separate sections that allow you to quickly see what's inside the kit. _____37_____.

I vividly remember a moment that I still regret to this day. During my childhood, an important part of my time was spent on my collection of National Geographic magazines. Each year on my birthday, my mother would gift me a new magazine to add to my growing collection, which I treasured very much. One day, when I was seven, I ran across a picture of a bologna tree. However, I didn't actually read the article about the tree. I just thought I discovered the source of bologna sandwiches! Little did I know that this newfound knowledge would come back to trouble me in the future. Not long after, I found an opportunity to show my rich knowledge and prove to my classmates that I was indeed a smart kid. During a classroom discussion about unusual things, I took the moment to confidently stand up in front of the whole class. With an air of authority, I declared, “It is a well-known fact that bologna sandwiches come from the bologna tree.” I deeply believe that the delicious sandwiches I had tasted during a family vacation to Italy grow on trees. This extremely silly opinion was a source of both embarrassment and frustration for me. However, my teacher Ms Murphy at this moment was kind enough to smile and tell me that my misconception (错误想法) was “quite imaginative”. Unfortunately, my classmates didn't have the same opinion, as they laughed loudly and declared that my belief was “the stupidest thing they had ever heard”. It was a moment that made me feel foolish and ashamed. For a while after that incident, I was filled with feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. I was ashamed of my inability to distinguish (辨别) fact from imagination. I felt like a clown (小丑), thinking that my classmates would never let me forget my foolish mistake. 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。 For the next couple of weeks, I was determined to avoid any further embarrassment. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I began to share information with my classmates again and became more careful about the information. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 / 10 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高二年级下学期期末仿真模拟卷02（外研版） （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号和座位号填写在答题卡上。用2B铅笔将试卷类型(A)填涂在答题卡相应位置上。将条形码横贴在答题卡右上角“条形码粘贴处”。 2. 作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑;如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案，答案不能答在试卷上。 3. 非选择题必须用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上;如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案;不准使用铅笔和涂改液，不按以上要求作答的答案无效。 4. 考生必须保持答题卡的整洁：考试结束后，将试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第I卷（选择题 95分） 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.

Antonio Stradivari. B. Giuseppe Guarneri. C. Pieter Lastman. 19. What do we know about Regis Pasquier? A. He once performed at Carnegie Hall. B He is a famous Italian violin maker. C. He bought more than 20 violins. 20. How much is the violin Messiah Stradivarius believed to be worth? A. $10 million. B. $16 million. C. $20 million. 【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】W: A nearly 300-year-old violin will soon sell for more than $10 million. There are many violins, but this one is like a painting by Pieter Lastman, or even Leonardo da Vinci. This one was made by an Italian violin maker Giuseppe Guarneri in 1736. He is often compared to another famous Italian violin maker, Antonio Stradivari. The violin is owned by Regis Pasquier. He is known as one of the top violinists in the world. He bought the violin more than 20 years ago. He played the instrument in places like Carnegie Hall in New York and the Opera Garnier in Paris. The violin will be up for sale following a three-day viewing. Some people said it could sell for up to $10 million. At that price, the violin would not even be the most expensive in the world. In 2012, an unnamed buyer paid $16 million for a violin that was once owned by 19th-century violinist Henri Vieuxtemps. The most valuable violin is believed to be the Messiah Stradivarius. The violin is estimated to be worth $20 million dollars. It can be seen at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, Britain. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Here’re some fun holidays you may like. Square Root Day It’s celebrated on a day where the first two digits in the date are the square root of the last two digits. Only date formats (格式) that have the month and date first and the last two digits of the year last(mm/dd/yy, m/d/yy, dd/mm/yy or d/m/yy) can have Square Root Days. Ron Gordon, an American high school teacher, created this unofficial holiday. Yellow Pig Day July 17 is Yellow Pig Day. Despite its name, the day is not a celebration for pigs, but a celebration of the number 17. The unofficial holiday was created in the early 1960s by Princeton mathematics students, David Kelly and Michael Spivak, while working on the special properties of the number 17. e-Day e-Day celebrates the mathematical constant (常数) e, which has a value of 2.7182818. It is celebrated on February 7 in countries that follow the month/day (m/d) date format. This is because the first two digits of the date — 2/7 — correspond to the first two digits of the constant. Fibonacci Day This annual holiday is created to remember one of the most influential mathematicians of the Middle Ages — Leonardo Bonacci. It falls on November 23 because when the date is written in the mm/dd format (11/23), the digits in the date form a Fibonacci sequence: 1,1,2,3, which is a series of numbers where a number is the sum of the two numbers before it. For example: 1,1,2,3… is a Fibonacci sequence. Here, 2 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+1). Similarly, 3 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+2). 21．Which of the following is Square Root Day of 2025? A．On March 3 rd. B．On April 4th. C．On May 5th. D．On June 6th. 22．Which honors a famous person? A．Square Root Day. B．Fibonacci Day. C．Yellow Pig Day. D．e-Day. 23．What do the listed holidays have in common? A．They were created by the same person. B．They are celebrated every other year. C．They are recognized by authorities. D．They have much to do with math. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四个与数字有关的节日。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Square Root Day部分“It’s celebrated on a day where the first two digits in the date are the square root of the last two digits. Only date formats(格式) that have the month and date first and the last two digits of the year last(mm/dd/yy, m/d/yy, dd/mm/yy or d/m/yy) can have Square Root Days.(平方根庆祝的日期就在：当日期的前两位数是后两位数的平方根。日期的格式必须是月份、日期在前，年份在后这天才能庆祝平方根节，其日期格式可以是：月月/日日/年年，月/日/年年，日日/月月/年年，或者日/月/年年。)”可知，日期的格式是年份在后，故表达为日/月/2025，或者月/日/2025，且日期的前两位数是后两位数的平方根，25的平方根是5，故“日/月”或者“月/日”上的数字均为5，故为5月5日，故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Fibonacci Day部分“This annual holiday is created to remember one of the most influential mathematicians of the Middle Ages — Leonardo Bonacci.(这个一年一度的节日是为了纪念中世纪最有影响力的数学家之一Leonardo Bonacci——而设立的。)”可知，Fibonacci Day是为了纪念一个著名的数学家，故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Square Root Day部分“It’s celebrated on a day where the first two digits in the date are the square root of the last two digits.(它的庆祝日期是当日期的前两位数是后两位数的平方根的那天。)”，Yellow Pig Day部分“July 17 is Yellow Pig Day. Despite its name, the day is not a celebration for pigs, but a celebration of the number 17.(7月17日是黄猪节。尽管名字如此，这一天并不是为了庆祝猪，而是为了庆祝数字17。)”，e-Day部分“e-Day celebrates the mathematical constant (常数) e(e-Day是为了庆祝数学常数e。)”和Fibonacci Day部分“This annual holiday is created to remember one of the most influential mathematicians of the Middle Ages — Leonardo Bonacci.(这个一年一度的节日是为了纪念中世纪最有影响力的数学家之一Leonardo Bonacci——而设立的。)”可知，这四个节日都与数学有关，故选D。 B )One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 24．What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A．Asked others about it. B．Learned something about it. C．Spent three hours researching it. D．Rented a boat. 25．What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Forbidden. B．Allowed. C．Charged. D．Limited. 26．What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A．It sits on the top of a hill. B．It is the largest stage all over China. C．It was for royalty to watch performances. D．Operas are performed there at times. 27．Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A．She took a boat by herself. B．She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C．She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D．She only toured part of the Summer Palace. 【答案】24．B 25．A 26．C 27．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了作者游玩北京颐和园的经历，事先了解了信息，然后参观了必看的佛香阁、德和园戏台，并乘船欣赏了昆明湖。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet.”（出发前，我在网上查了一下。）可知，作者在出发前上网了解了一些颐和园的情况。故选B。 25．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers.”（不像其他地方，在颐和园大多数建筑都不允许拍照。大多数佛像和其他文物的照片都是摄影师的off⁃limits。）可知，颐和园的大多数建筑不允许拍照，由此推知，位于建筑中的佛像和手工艺品大多也禁止拍照，因此off-limits与forbidden意思相近。故选A。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items.”（另一个亮点是看到了为慈禧太后创造的戏台，她在那里观看戏曲和其他剧场节目。）可知，戏台是给皇室看戏剧等演出的。故选C。 27．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again.”（但我没有全部看完，因为天黑了。我多么希望能再去一次。）可知，因为天快黑了，作者没能欣赏到颐和园的全部景观，只参观了颐和园的一部分。故选D。 C Billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday announced that he has formed a new artificial intelligence (AI) company, xAI, which has employed researchers from Google, OpenAI and other top technology companies. The goal, Musk tweeted, is “to understand reality.” Musk isn’t a novice to AI given that Tesla uses the technology in its cars. While xAI didn’t mention what projects it will be working on, the company noted that its team of 11 researchers are draw n from top tech companies such as Microsoft Research, OpenAI and Google. Musk suggested that the reason he picked July 12, 2023, to announce the start of xAI is connected with a science fiction classic, Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. In his tweet, he noted that adding the date 7-12-23 equals 42, which the work of the fiction famously assumes is the answer to life. The company said it will be advised by Dan Hendrycks, director of the Center for AI Safety. Hendrycks pointed out where AI could cause problems. “AIs could be used by bad people to make new deadly bioweapons,” Hendrycks said in May. “Or people could make AI that tries to hurt people on purpose. If this AI was really smart, it could be a big danger to all of us.” The first time xAI was shown to the public was after Musk talked about it in April to the former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Musk told Carlson that OpenAI’s ChatGPT was a bit restricted and that he wanted to create a different tool that would be a super honest AI that tries to learn how everything in the world works. The startup reflected Musk’s long-voiced concerns about a future in which AI systems could present an existential risk to humanity. Musk said the idea is that an AI that wants to understand humanity is less likely to des troy it. 28. What does the underlined word “novice” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Director. B. Supporter. C. Partner. D. Beginner. 29. Why is Douglas Adams mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. He was a friend of Musk. B. His book was very famous. C. He was a guide of the start of xAI. D. He was connected with the announcing date. 30. Why did Musk talk to Tucker Carlson? A. To make xAI popular. B. To explain why he started xAI. C. To show how xAI works. D. To criticize OpenAI’s ChatGPT. 31. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Creating an honest AI is Musk’s dream. B. It is difficult to control AI systems. C. Musk worries about the danger of AI. D. AI has trouble understanding humanity. 【答案】28. D 29. D 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述马斯克创办了xAI公司来探究世界万物的真理，以及xAI公司创办过程的一些相关报道。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Musk isn’t a… to AI given that Tesla uses the technology in its cars.(鉴于特斯拉车上就使用了这项科技，马斯克并不是AI方面的……) 可推测，马斯克对于人工智能并不陌生，即他对人工智能有相当的了解或经验。因此，划线词在此处最可能的含义是“新手，初学者”，故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In his tweet, he noted that adding the date 7-12-23 equals 42, which the work of the fiction famously assumes is the answer to life.(马斯克在推特中指出把日期里的数字相加等于42，正是那部著名小说中假定的生命的答案)”。由此可知，马斯克提到道格拉斯·亚当斯是因为他选择在2023年7月12日宣布xAI启动的日期与《银河系漫游指南》这部科幻小说有关，书中42被认为是生命、宇宙及一切的答案，而这个日期的数字相加也恰好等于42。因此，提及道格拉斯·亚当斯是因为他与宣布启动xAI的日期选择有关，故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Musk told Carlson that Open AI’s ChatGPT was a bit restricted and that he wanted to create a different tool that would be a super honest AI that tries to learn how everything in the world works(马斯克告诉卡尔森OpenAI公司的ChatGPT比较受限制，他想要创造一个不同的工具，一个能去学习世间万物真理的非常忠实的AI)”可知，马斯克在解释他创办xAI的原因，故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The startup reflected Musk’s long-voiced concerns about a future in which AI systems could present an existential risk to humanity(这个新公司反映了马斯克明显的担忧，未来AI系统可能会带来关乎人类存亡的风险)”，可推测出这段话主要表达了马斯克对于AI的担忧，故选C。 D Do you ever wonder about what the term “locally-grown food” means? Do you wonder where your food comes from? Locally-grown food and sustainability are on the rise, and it’s important to know why this trend in farming matters. Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. Much of what gets to their table depends on what comes to use by ship. Sometimes, one notices there is no milk or other product left at the grocery story because there is a problem with a barge (驳船). Steven Chiang, a professor from University of Hawaii, pointed out that in Hawaii, the cost of labor is high for people who might want to farm the land. Since many different groups or individuals own small pieces of land, getting access to farmland is also difficult. However, Chiang added, “there are many benefits to growing food locally on the islands and elsewhere.” For one, they can hold onto traditions and the types of food they like. Food in soil will have the chance to mature more, and maybe absorb more nutrition. Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. Also, plants can extract the carbon dioxide in the air, benefiting the environment. Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. “Having local food helps make people aware of where their food comes from,” he said. When people are disconnected from the food system and don’t know where their food comes from, there’s a tendency to make potentially negative choices. “Because we’re so efficient at shipping and importing,” he added, “We don’t realize or know what it takes, and that can lead to poor decisions that can harm us all.” So what can you do? In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! 32. What can be inferred about Hawaii’s food supply? A. Hawaii relies heavily on imported food. B. Hawaii’s cost of living is low for farmers. C. Hawaii’s grocery stores are often short of milk. D. Hawaii’s farmland is enough for all local needs. 33. Which is a benefit of growing food locally? A. Lowering the cost of local labor. B. Increasing the variety of imported food. C. Preserving land for non-agricultural use. D. Offering quick access to imported food. 34. What is Chiang’s attitude towards locally-grown food? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Undecided. D. Favorable. 35. What is the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To encourage gardening at home. B. To advocate sustainable practices. C. To promote local farming in Hawaii. D. To discourage buying imported food. 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了本地种植食物的重要性和可持续性，以夏威夷为例，阐述了本地种植食物的优势和对环境及社会的影响。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. (尤其是夏威夷，是一个非常孤立的地方。大约 85%的食物是进口的。)”可以推断出，夏威夷严重依赖进口食品。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. (可能用于其他用途的土地，如新建公寓或办公楼，可以得到保留。)”可知，本地种植食物的一个好处是可以为非农业用途保留土地。故选C项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. (蒋说，本地种植的食物不仅仅有这些好处。)”以及他对本地种植食物的各种好处的阐述，可以推断出蒋对本地种植食物持支持的态度。故选D项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! (在夏威夷，有许多在当地农场做志愿者的机会。但在世界其他地区，你可以通过支持和购买本地种植的食物来尽一份力。你还可以通过教育你的朋友和家人来帮助传播意识。你甚至可以自己种植食物——在你的厨房里用容器种植，或者在你家的后院种植。)”可知，作者提到在夏威夷可以去当地农场做志愿者，在其他地区可以支持和购买本地种植的食物，还可以教育朋友和家人来传播意识，甚至可以自己种植食物，其目的是倡导可持续的做法。故选B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。 First-aid kits are most commonly used for minor injuries like cuts, but they can also help you in less-common emergency situations, such as heart attacks or life-threatening bleeding. _____36_____ Buy the right container Your first-aid items should be kept in a waterproof bag or an airtight container with clear separate sections that allow you to quickly see what's inside the kit. _____37_____.

I vividly remember a moment that I still regret to this day. During my childhood, an important part of my time was spent on my collection of National Geographic magazines. Each year on my birthday, my mother would gift me a new magazine to add to my growing collection, which I treasured very much. One day, when I was seven, I ran across a picture of a bologna tree. However, I didn't actually read the article about the tree. I just thought I discovered the source of bologna sandwiches! Little did I know that this newfound knowledge would come back to trouble me in the future. Not long after, I found an opportunity to show my rich knowledge and prove to my classmates that I was indeed a smart kid. During a classroom discussion about unusual things, I took the moment to confidently stand up in front of the whole class. With an air of authority, I declared, “It is a well-known fact that bologna sandwiches come from the bologna tree.” I deeply believe that the delicious sandwiches I had tasted during a family vacation to Italy grow on trees. This extremely silly opinion was a source of both embarrassment and frustration for me. However, my teacher Ms Murphy at this moment was kind enough to smile and tell me that my misconception (错误想法) was “quite imaginative”. Unfortunately, my classmates didn't have the same opinion, as they laughed loudly and declared that my belief was “the stupidest thing they had ever heard”. It was a moment that made me feel foolish and ashamed. For a while after that incident, I was filled with feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. I was ashamed of my inability to distinguish (辨别) fact from imagination. I felt like a clown (小丑), thinking that my classmates would never let me forget my foolish mistake. 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。 For the next couple of weeks, I was determined to avoid any further embarrassment. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I began to share information with my classmates again and became more careful about the information. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: For the next couple of weeks, I was determined to avoid any further embarrassment. I refused to open the magazines and kept my mouth shut during classes. I felt like I was walking on eggshells, constantly worried that I might say something foolish. I was afraid to share my opinions or ask questions. As a result, I became increasingly isolated. I didn’t participate in any activities that might show my ignorance until Ms Murphy talked with me, enlightening me patiently. My spirits lifted, and I felt cheerful once more. I began to share information with my classmates again and became more careful about the information. I started to double-check my sources and read articles in their entirety before sharing any information with others, unwilling to make the same mistake twice. It was a lesson learned the hard way, but it made me realize the importance of confirming information before presenting it to others. And while my bologna tree story might have been a bit embarrassing at the time, it ultimately taught me an important lesson that has stayed with me throughout my life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者因为一次意外的尴尬分享经历，充满了自我怀疑和不安全感，觉得自己如履薄冰，总是担心自己会说些愚蠢的话，直到墨菲女士和作者谈心，开导了作者。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的几个星期里，我决心避免任何进一步的尴尬”可知，第一段可描写作者自我封闭以及墨菲女士开导作者。 ②由第二段首句内容“我开始再次与同学分享信息，并对信息更加谨慎”可知，第二段可描写作者汲取教训，为了不再犯错所做的努力以及感悟。 2.续写线索：避免尴尬——担心犯错——变得孤立——墨菲女士开导——作者改变——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拒绝：refuse/decline ②参加：participate in/take part in ③意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①担心的：worried/concerned ②害怕的：afraid/frightened 【点睛】[高分句型1] I didn’t participate in any activities that might show my ignorance until Ms Murphy talked with me, enlightening me patiently.
