Death Valley, California, USA Very lively at night but completely dead during the day, this place is nothing but dry hot desert. It actually holds the record for the hottest air temperature. It has an average temperature of 46℃ but it has reached 56.7℃ in 1913 and is considered to be a current record. As the driest place in the USA, this place is actually inhabited even though less than a thousand people live there. Kebili, Tunisia Tunisia’s close location to the Mediterranean Sea suggests that it should be nice and cool but Kebili is a desert town which has the highest temperature recorded at 55℃. The people inhabiting the area have adjusted to tough conditions and learned to spend most of their time in the shade. Date palms are one of the key features of this place. Wādī Halfā, Sudan The city is located on the shores of Lake Nubia, and dust storms are a pretty common thing in the summer. With an average temperature of 41℃, it still managed to make it to 53℃ in 1967. You would think that it should be a little bit cooler for it is the most northern place in Sudan. Dasht-e Lut Desert, Iran It’s another uninhabited desert which is actually getting super hot. In the past 20 years, the temperatures of 70℃ have been recorded. The salt desert spreads over 200 miles and even wildlife is not that spread. The place is popular with tourists and naturalists who would like to experience extreme landscapes. 1. What can we say about Death Valley? A. There is little rainfall in it. B. Over 1, 000 people live there. C. There is nothing but dry hot sand in it. D. Its average temperature is 56.7℃. 2. Which place has the highest temperature ever recorded? A. Death Valley. B. Dasht-e Lut Desert. C. Wādī Halfā. D. Kebili. 3. What do the four places have in common? A. They are places suitable to settle in. B. They are located close to deserts. C. They are the hottest places on earth. D. They are more popular with tourists than other places. B Recently I bought a book about signposts. Signposts aren’t very interesting, you’re thinking. Well, that, of course, depends on whether you happen to be lost! Ancient travelers would have been grateful for these when settlements were smaller and further apart. In winter, the ability to reach shelter for the night could be the difference between life and death. One of the very earliest way-marks discovered is in Cumbria. Dating from Roman times, it had lain fallen until 1836, when a farmer ploughing his fields came across a sandstone shaft (碑文). There are other stone posts that have stood by roadsides for centuries. It wasn’t until 1697 that an act was passed declaring that guide-stones must be built. This applied to remote parts of the country where there might be confusion as to which path led to the nearest market town. Later, with the appearance of the Royal Mail, the number rose still further. Nowadays many of these early road signs are designated (指定) as Listed Monuments. “How times change!” Lucy, an enthusiastic walker, to whom I loaned the book, exclaimed. “I suppose now we all rely far more upon mobile phones to guide us.” “Yet they aren’t perfect. Whenever I go out, I prefer a map. I never have to worry about running out of battery.” “I’m always grateful to whoever is placing way-markers along the route,” she added, “I suppose that however sure we are, a little outside confirmation is always welcome.” Lucy is quite right there. Life itself can offer us a great many choices of path, and sometimes it isn’t easy to know if we’ve chosen the best one. Perhaps when it comes to gratitude, we should also include thanks for those people who appear in our lives when we most need them — either giving us gentle warning that we might be heading in the wrong direction, or reassurance that we are on the right track. After all, we’d be lost without them! 4. What does the underlined word “these ” in the first paragraph refer to? A. Signposts. B. Abilities. C. Settlements. D. Shelters. 5. What contributed to the initial spread of signposts? A. The market trade. B. The act passed in 1697. C. The discovery of the sandstone. D. The appearance of the Royal Mail. 6. What does Lucy think of signposts? A. Popular. B. Outdated. C. Imperfect. D. Helpful. 7. What does the author learn from signposts? A. To choose right tracks. B. To live a colorful life. C. To have a grateful mind. D. To offer practical choices. C Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis. The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. “When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning. Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places. The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found.“That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue. You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot. 8. What is known about the paint? A. It has different colors. B. It doesn’t cost much. C. It uses heating technology. D. It is climate-friendly. 9. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show? A. The poor management of power. B. The significance of the paint. C. The importance of air conditioning. D. The result of global warming. 10. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4? A. Its application. B. Its function. C. Its composition. D. Its disadvantage. 11. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. The quality of the paint needs improving. B. The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies. C. Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use. D. Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint. D Human responses to moral dilemmas (两难选择) can be influenced by statements written by the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, according to a study published in Scientific Reports. The findings indicate that users may underestimate the extent to which their own moral judgments can be influenced by the chatbot. Sebastian Krigel and colleagues asked ChatGPT multiple times whether it is right to sacrifice (牺牲) the life of one person in order to save the lives of five others. They found that ChatGPT wrote random statements arguing both for and against sacrificing one life, indicating that it is not biased towards a certain moral stance (立场). The authors then presented 767 U. S. participants, who were on average 39 years old, with a dilemma whether to sacrifice one person’s life to save five others. Before answering, participants read a statement provided by ChatGPT arguing either for or against sacrificing one life to save five. Statements were from either a moral advisor or ChatGPT. After answering, participants were asked whether the statement they read influenced their answers. Eighty percent of participants reported that their answers were not influenced by the statements they read. However, the authors found that the answers participants believed they would have provided without reading the statements were still more likely to agree with the moral stance of the statement they did read than with the opposite stance. This indicates that participants may have underestimated the influence of ChatGPT’s statements on their own moral judgments. The authors suggest that the potential for chatbots to influence human moral judgments highlights the need for education to help humans better understand artificial intelligence. They propose that future research should design chatbots that either decline to answer questions requiring a moral judgment or answer these questions by providing multiple arguments and warnings. 12. What are ChatGPT’s answers to a certain moral stance like according to Paragraph 2? A. Inconsistent. B. Valuable. C. Creative. D. Simple. 13. What is learned about the participants? A. They admitted the power of ChatGPT. B. They were interviewed by a moral advisor. C. They were affected by ChatGPT unknowingly. D. They were presented with different moral dilemmas. 14. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Different findings of the study. B. Future potentials for chatbots. C. Major focuses of future education. D. Solutions to the impact of chatbots. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. ChatGPT Tends to Cause Moral Panics B. ChatGPT: Is It Likely to Affect Our Life? C. ChatGPT:Why Is It Making Us So Nervous? D. ChatGPT Can Influence Human Moral Judgments 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Learning how to care for a sad person will help you be there for your loved ones and friends when they are down.

People’s opinions about it varies from one to another. In my opinion, it won’t replace with traditional learning. Firstly, it isn’t suitably for students who prefer direct communication with teachers. What’s bad, studying online too long will do harm to students’ eyes. However, it is its flexibility in time and place which benefits teaching and learning. Also, it releases teachers from repeat the same contents since the video or audio materials can played repeatedly. So it is a effective addition to traditional learning. Briefly, the combination of distance learning and traditional learning can help students realize their potential when putting into practice. 第二节　书面表达(满分25分) 52. 请你以“Science And Technology Influence Our Life”为题，给校刊“英语角”栏目写一篇英文稿件，内容包括： 1. 举例说明科学技术给学校教育和我们生活带来的新变化；2. 你的感受。 注意： 1. 短文词数不少于100词。 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 3. 文中不能使用真实姓名和学校名称。 Science And Technology Influence Our Life _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 湖北省2025届八校三统联考 高三英语试题 全卷满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1、答题前，请将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的制定位置。 2、选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3、非选择题作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡对应的答题区域内，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4、考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 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卡上。 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．What does the man want to do?

Signposts aren’t very interesting, you’re thinking. Well, that, of course, depends on whether you happen to be lost! Ancient travelers would have been grateful for these when settlements were smaller and further apart. In winter, the ability to reach shelter for the night could be the difference between life and death. One of the very earliest way-marks discovered is in Cumbria. Dating from Roman times, it had lain fallen until 1836, when a farmer ploughing his fields came across a sandstone shaft (碑文). There are other stone posts that have stood by roadsides for centuries. It wasn’t until 1697 that an act was passed declaring that guide-stones must be built. This applied to remote parts of the country where there might be confusion as to which path led to the nearest market town. Later, with the appearance of the Royal Mail, the number rose still further. Nowadays many of these early road signs are designated (指定) as Listed Monuments. “How times change!” Lucy, an enthusiastic walker, to whom I loaned the book, exclaimed. “I suppose now we all rely far more upon mobile phones to guide us.” “Yet they aren’t perfect. Whenever I go out, I prefer a map. I never have to worry about running out of battery.” “I’m always grateful to whoever is placing way-markers along the route,” she added, “I suppose that however sure we are, a little outside confirmation is always welcome.” Lucy is quite right there. Life itself can offer us a great many choices of path, and sometimes it isn’t easy to know if we’ve chosen the best one. Perhaps when it comes to gratitude, we should also include thanks for those people who appear in our lives when we most need them — either giving us gentle warning that we might be heading in the wrong direction, or reassurance that we are on the right track. After all, we’d be lost without them! 4. What does the underlined word “these ” in the first paragraph refer to? A. Signposts. B. Abilities. C. Settlements. D. Shelters. 5. What contributed to the initial spread of signposts? A. The market trade. B. The act passed in 1697. C. The discovery of the sandstone. D. The appearance of the Royal Mail. 6. What does Lucy think of signposts? A. Popular. B. Outdated. C. Imperfect. D. Helpful. 7. What does the author learn from signposts? A. To choose right tracks. B. To live a colorful life. C. To have a grateful mind. D. To offer practical choices. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者最近买了一本关于路标的书，以及从书中掌握了解到关于路标的知识。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Recently I bought a book about signposts. Signposts aren’t very interesting, you’re thinking. Well, that, of course, depends on whether you happen to be lost!(最近我买了一本关于路标的书。你在想，路标没什么意思。嗯，那当然要看你是不是碰巧迷路了！)”及划线词所在句“Ancient travelers would have been grateful for these when settlements were smaller and further apart.(当定居点更小、距离更远的时候，古代旅行者会很感激这些)”可知，划线单词these指的就是上文中提到的路标。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One of the very earliest waymarks discovered is in Cumbria. Dating from Roman times, it had lain fallen until 1836, when a farmer ploughing his fields came across a sandstone shaft (碑文). There are other stone posts that have stood by roadsides for centuries. It wasn’t until 1697 that an act was passed declaring that guide-stones must be built.(最早发现的路标之一是在坎布里亚郡。它始建于罗马时代，直到1836年，一个农民在耕地时偶然发现了一个砂岩井。还有一些石柱已经矗立在路边几个世纪了。直到1697年才通过一项法案，宣布必须建造路标)”可知，1697年通过的法案促成了路标最初的传播。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段““Yet they aren’t perfect. Whenever I go out, I prefer a map. I never have to worry about running out of battery.” “I’m always grateful to whoever is placing way-markers along the route,” she added, “I suppose that however sure we are, a little outside confirmation is always welcome.” (“然而，它们并不完美。无论我什么时候出去，我都喜欢带着地图。我从来不用担心没电了。“无论谁在沿途设置路标，我都很感激，”她补充说，“我想，无论我们多么确定，一点外界的确认总是受欢迎的。”)”可推知，露西对路标的看法是认为它是有帮助的。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Perhaps when it comes to gratitude, we should also include thanks for those people who appear in our lives when we most need them — either giving us gentle warning that we might be heading in the wrong direction, or reassurance that we are on the right track.(也许说到感恩，我们也应该感谢那些在我们最需要他们的时候出现在我们生活中的人——他们要么温和地警告我们可能走错了方向，要么安慰我们走在正确的道路上。毕竟，没有他们我们会迷路的！)”可推知，作者从路标中学到了要有感恩的心。故选C项。 C Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis. The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. “When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning. Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places. The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found.“That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue. You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot. 8. What is known about the paint? A. It has different colors. B. It doesn’t cost much. C. It uses heating technology. D. It is climate-friendly. 9. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show? A. The poor management of power. B. The significance of the paint. C. The importance of air conditioning. D. The result of global warming. 10. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4? A. Its application. B. Its function. C. Its composition. D. Its disadvantage. 11. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. The quality of the paint needs improving. B. The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies. C. Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use. D. Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了普渡大学的科学家们创造了世界上最白的涂料——这一发现不仅为“我们应该把这面墙涂成哪种白色”的困境增加了另一个选择，而且可能有助于解决气候危机。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming.”（这种涂料是由普渡大学机械工程教授阮秀林和他的团队开发的。它的工作原理是一种被动冷却技术，这种技术很有希望降低空间冷却成本和全球变暖。）可知，关于涂料我们知道它是气候友好型的。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a Queens blackout in 2006,175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places.”（在2006年皇后区的一次大停电中，17.5万人没有电，导致40人死亡。在一些地方，这种涂料可以有效地替代空调。）可推知，皇后区停电事件是为了说明涂料的意义。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found. “That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue.”（这种涂料能反射98.1%的太阳辐射，同时还能发出红外线。由于这种涂料从太阳吸收的热量比散发的热量少，涂上这种涂料的表面可以在不使用电力的情况下冷却到周围温度以下。研究人员发现，用这种涂料覆盖1000平方英尺的屋顶可以产生10千瓦的冷却功率。“这比大多数家庭使用的空调更强大，”阮告诉This Is Purdue。）可知，第4段主要谈论了涂料的功能方面的内容。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot.”（你现在还不能买到这种涂料，但研究人员正在与一家公司合作，将这种涂料推向市场。虽然个人行动对抗气候变化可以帮助拯救我们的地球，但重要的是要注意，世界上绝大多数温室气体排放可以追溯到100家公司。也许我们可以把这些公司也涂上这种白漆——值得一试。）可推知，从最后一段可以得知研究人员希望看到这种涂料在商业上的应用。故选C项。 D Human responses to moral dilemmas (两难选择) can be influenced by statements written by the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, according to a study published in Scientific Reports. The findings indicate that users may underestimate the extent to which their own moral judgments can be influenced by the chatbot. Sebastian Krigel and colleagues asked ChatGPT multiple times whether it is right to sacrifice (牺牲) the life of one person in order to save the lives of five others. They found that ChatGPT wrote random statements arguing both for and against sacrificing one life, indicating that it is not biased towards a certain moral stance (立场). The authors then presented 767 U. S. participants, who were on average 39 years old, with a dilemma whether to sacrifice one person’s life to save five others. Before answering, participants read a statement provided by ChatGPT arguing either for or against sacrificing one life to save five. Statements were from either a moral advisor or ChatGPT. After answering, participants were asked whether the statement they read influenced their answers. Eighty percent of participants reported that their answers were not influenced by the statements they read. However, the authors found that the answers participants believed they would have provided without reading the statements were still more likely to agree with the moral stance of the statement they did read than with the opposite stance. This indicates that participants may have underestimated the influence of ChatGPT’s statements on their own moral judgments. The authors suggest that the potential for chatbots to influence human moral judgments highlights the need for education to help humans better understand artificial intelligence. They propose that future research should design chatbots that either decline to answer questions requiring a moral judgment or answer these questions by providing multiple arguments and warnings. 12. What are ChatGPT’s answers to a certain moral stance like according to Paragraph 2? A. Inconsistent. B. Valuable. C. Creative. D. Simple. 13. What is learned about the participants? A. They admitted the power of ChatGPT. B. They were interviewed by a moral advisor. C. They were affected by ChatGPT unknowingly. D. They were presented with different moral dilemmas. 14. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Different findings of the study. B. Future potentials for chatbots. C. Major focuses of future education. D. Solutions to the impact of chatbots. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. ChatGPT Tends to Cause Moral Panics B. ChatGPT: Is It Likely to Affect Our Life? C. ChatGPT:Why Is It Making Us So Nervous? D. ChatGPT Can Influence Human Moral Judgments 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了发表在《科学报告》上的一项研究表明，人类对道德困境的反应可能会受到人工智能聊天机器人ChatGPT所写语句的影响。文章介绍了研究开展的经过以及发现，最后提到了解决聊天机器人影响的方法。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They found that ChatGPT wrote random statements arguing both for and against sacrificing one life, indicating that it is not biased towards a certain moral stance (立场).(他们发现，ChatGPT随机写出支持或反对牺牲一条生命的陈述，这表明它并不偏向于某种道德立场)”可推知，ChatGPT对某种道德立场的回答不一致。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This indicates that participants may have underestimated the influence of ChatGPT’s statements on their own moral judgments.(这表明参与者可能低估了ChatGPT的陈述对他们自己道德判断的影响)”可知，参与者在不知不觉中受到了ChatGPT的影响。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The authors suggest that the potential for chatbots to influence human moral judgments highlights the need for education to help humans better understand artificial intelligence.

People’s opinions about it varies from one to another. In my opinion, it won’t replace with traditional learning. Firstly, it isn’t suitably for students who prefer direct communication with teachers. What’s bad, studying online too long will do harm to students’ eyes. However, it is its flexibility in time and place which benefits teaching and learning. Also, it releases teachers from repeat the same contents since the video or audio materials can played repeatedly. So it is a effective addition to traditional learning. Briefly, the combination of distance learning and traditional learning can help students realize their potential when putting into practice. 【答案】popular→popularity 2. varies→vary 3. 删掉replace后面的with 4. suitably→suitable 5. bad→worse 6. which→that 7. repeat→repeating 8. 在played前面加be 9. a→an 10. putting→ put 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，论述线上教学为何不会取代传统教学，以及线上教学与传统教学相结合的可行性。 【详解】1.考查名词。句意：随着网络的发展，线上教学越来越普及。动词gain后面接名词作宾语，所以该句应用popularity作宾语。故将popular改为popularity。 2.考查主谓一致。句意：人们对线上教学的看法不一。主语People’s opinions是复数，所以谓语动词vary应用复数形式，保持主谓一致。故将varies改为vary。 3.考查及物动词。句意：我认为线上教学不会取代传统教学。replace是及物动词，后面无需介词，可直接加宾语。故删掉replace后面的with。 4.考查形容词。句意：首先，线上教学不适合那些倾向于与老师进行直接交流的学生。短语be suitable for意为“适于”。故将suitably改为suitable。 5.考查形容词。句意：更糟糕的是，线上学习时间过长会对学生的眼睛造成伤害。what’s worse是固定搭配，意为“更糟糕的是”。故将bad改为worse。 6.考查强调句型。句意：然而，线上教学的教学优点在于时间和地点的灵活性。强调句型的结构是：“It is/was+被强调部分+that（通用）/who（指人）+其它”。该句被强调部分是“its flexibility in time and place”，故用that。故将which改为that。 7.考查动名词。句意：此外，由于教学音视频材料可以重复播放，线上教学能够让教师不必重复讲授相同的教学内容。from是介词，后面接动词的动名词形式作宾语。故将repeat改为repeating。 8.考查动词语态。句意：此外，由于教学音视频材料可以重复播放，线上教学能够让教师不必重复讲授相同的教学内容。分析句子结构可知，该句是since引导的原因状语从句，从句主语the video or audio materials与动词play之间是被动关系，所以play应用被动语态。又因为can是情态动词，后面接动词原形，所以此处从句谓语应为can be played。故在played前面加be。 9.考查冠词。句意：因此，线上教学能够有效辅助传统教学。effective发音以元音音素开头，需用不定冠词an。故将a改为an。 10.考查动词语态。句意：简言之，如果将线上教学与传统教学相结合，便能有利于发挥学生的潜能。此处when引导的从句中，从句的主语与主句的主语the combination of distance learning and traditional learning一致，且与从句谓语动词put之间是被动关系，则put应用被动语态，即从句谓语中有be动词，所以该句省略了从句的主语和be动词，从句部分为when put into practice。故将putting改为put。 第二节　书面表达(满分25分) 52. 请你以“Science And Technology Influence Our Life”为题，给校刊“英语角”栏目写一篇英文稿件，内容包括： 1. 举例说明科学技术给学校教育和我们生活带来的新变化；2. 你的感受。 注意： 1. 短文词数不少于100词。 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 3. 文中不能使用真实姓名和学校名称。 Science And Technology Influence Our Life _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One Possible Version Science And Technology Influence Our Life Science and technology have been deeply influencing both our our life and study.
