I propose the theme “Protect Our Planet.” You could organize a campus clean-up event where students pick up litter, water plants, and plant trees to enhance the beauty of your school. Additionally, hosting interesting workshops on recycling and sustainable practices would educate everyone on reducing waste and conserving resources effectively. Engaging students in these activities is both beneficial and essential, as even small efforts can lead to significant positive impacts on your school environment. I look forward to seeing how the event unfolds! Yours, Li Hua 第二节 读后续写 Lily, in shock and panic, rushed to my side. Her own leg was badly hurt as well, but her focus was on me. “I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!” she repeated, pulling me into her arms. Just then, the motorcycle rider stopped and approached us. His eyes widened with concern as he assessed the situation. “I'm really sorry! Are you both okay?” he asked, kneeling beside us. Noticing our injuries, he quickly introduced himself as Jake and suggested we go to the hospital to treat our wounds. Jake then offered to take us on his motorcycle to a nearby hospital. A nurse cleaned our scratches and wrapped our legs while Jake entertained me with stories about his own childhood adventures. The kind man stayed with us, ensuring we both received the care we needed. After our treatment, we left the hospital and waved goodbye to Jake, who even promised to check on us later. This experience turned out to be a mix of joy and pain, but I learned that with love and support we could face anything together. 高二英语 共 12 页 第 1 页 长乐一中 2024～2025 学年第二学期高二第二次月考试卷 英 语 考试范围：选必三 Unit 3-Unit 4 考试时间：2025-05-29 时限：120 分钟； 满分：150 分； 命题人：高二英语集备组 第 I 卷（共 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.

Eduardo Neves (p.11) The professor, archaeologist，and museum director at Brazil's University of São Paulo has spent 35 years researching the Amazon's early cultures, the knowledge he drew on for this issue's introduction. An Explorer since 2012, he now directs the Society-funded Amazônia Revelada project, which identifies and maps ancient human occupations in the rainforest. Ruthmery Pillco Huarcaya (p.30) Raised in a Quechua village in the Peruvian Andes, Pillco is a biologist directing a research team high in the cloud forest. For this issue, she wrote about the focus of their studies: the Andean bear and its vital role in the ecology of the Amazon Basin. She became an Explorer in 2021. João Campos-Silva (p.76) An Explorer since 2021 and founder of the Brazilian non-profit Instituto Juruá, he leads a team that's developing community-based conservation solutions in rural Amazonia. He specializes in the once endangered arapaima, an extremely large fish crucial to the culture of flooding lowlands, the subject he wrote about for this issue. Angelo Bernardino (p.120) 高二英语 共 12 页 第 4 页 This oceanographer at Brazil's Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo led a research team that recently identified a new kind of mangrove forest(红树林) at the mouth of the Amazon，an area he covers in this feature. An Explorer since 2018, Bernardino can be found on the water in his small boat every morning at daybreak. 21. What is the Amazônia Revelada project expected to do? A. Create occupations in the rainforest. B. Identify a new kind of mangrove forest. C. Train explorers for National Geographic. D. Uncover hidden early human civilizations. 22. On which page can you find information about the Andean bear? A. Page 11. B. Page 30. C. Page 76. D. Page 120. 23. What can be learned about Campos-Silva? A. He is an expert in the arapaima. B. He has been an Explorer for 13 years. C. He hopes to be a member of Instituto Juruá. D. He works at Brazil's University of São Paulo. B More is known about the surface of Mars than the floor of the ocean. By one count America spends 150 times more on space exploration than ocean research. Scientists have mapped almost every large hole on the surface of Mars but only about 20% of the seabed. Yet, interest in the ocean is growing. In The Underworld, Susan Casey, a Canadian writer, describes her trip to an underwater volcano off the coast of Hawaii in 2021, alongside Victor Vescovo, an explorer. When the deep-sea submersible(潜水器) parked 5,017 metres down， she found a world of slow-moving beauty. Mr. Vescovo has previously explored the deepest part of the Mariana Trench (nearly 11,000 metres down), where the water pressure is so high that it feels like 50 large airplanes piled on top of you. Ms. Casey's book flows between descriptions of the deep and the history of ocean exploration. In the 19th century, scientists believed the deep-sea regions were azoic. Yet, the situation is different. The HMS Challenger brought all manner of sea creatures to light on its trip around the world in the 1870s. Around 60 years later William Beebe, an American naturalist, explored the Atlantic Ocean in a submersible and saw such living beings for himself. For much of the 20th century oceanography grew significantly, popularized by explorers such as Jacques Cousteau, who wrote that the deep was a “silent world”. In truth it is remarkably noisy. Sing Like Fish, by Amorina Kingdom, a science writer, reveals remarkable facts about ocean noise. Readers learn that sound 高二英语 共 12 页 第 5 页 travels four and a half times faster underwater than on land, and that fish have the greatest variety of sound- producing organs of any vertebrate(脊椎动物) group. Sometimes fish are so noisy that they are heard above water. In the 1980’s houseboat owners in Sausalito, California, thought a loud sound was being produced by a secret military experiment. In reality it was the call of a male toadfish. 24. What did Casey do in 2021? A. She explored the Mariana Trench. B. She witnessed an erupting volcano. C. She had The Underworld published. D. She travelled deep beneath the ocean. 25. What does the underlined word “azoic” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Beautiful. B. Dangerous. C. Lifeless. D. Freezing. 26. What does Sing Like Fish uncover? A. The underwater world is not quiet. B. Sound travels quite slowly in the ocean. C. Fish are lacking in sound-producing organs. D.A secret military experiment was made in Sausalito. 27. What would be the best title for the text? A. Up to Mars B. Into the depths C. Sounds of the deep D. Amazing sea creatures C The World Health Organization estimates that about 4.2 million people die due to air pollution. Currently, traditional methods for assessing air quality in urban environments rely on expensive, refrigerator-sized units. Low-cost sensors rely on chemical reactions, which are wide of the mark and can give false readings. An EU-funded project called PASSEPARTOUT aims to provide a small detector with a complete understanding of the types and concentrations of harmful gases at a cost of under €1,000. In a statement, PASSEPARTOUT project coordinator Dr. William Whelan-Curtin said: “At present, accurate assessments of urban air are difficult. We are working to provide a system with high precision to detect harmful gases.” The system employs laser technology. When the laser light hits a harmful gas, the molecule absorbs light energy, giving off a heat "signature" that is then reported back to the system that identifies what the harmful 高二英语 共 12 页 第 6 页 gas is, and how much of it is present. The PASSEPARTOUT also uses quartz tuning fork(石英音叉) technology. Dr. Whelan-Curtin said, “Quartz tuning fork technology is particularly useful for detecting and measuring small amounts of gases in challenging environments. We use a quartz tuning fork to detect the signals generated by the gas sample while reducing the background noise. This tuning fork detects the sound waves generated by the gas as it heats and cools. The signal is then analyzed to determine the concentration of the target gas. Our system categorically detects specific gases, like SO2 and CO." The PASSEPARTOUT team is trialing their technology now. “In the future, we hope this can be integrated into Google Maps so that your journey to and from work or school can show you not just traffic hotspots but also the route with the cleanest air," said Dr. Whelan-Curtin. 28. What does the underlined part "wide of the mark” in paragraph 1probably mean? A. Incomparable. B. Unprofitable. C. Unimportant. D. Inaccurate. 29. What is the primary goal of PASSEPARTOUT? A. To enhance laser technology. B. To improve air quality monitoring. C. To study the effects of harmful gases. D. To reduce air pollution in urban areas. 30. Which aspect of the system does paragraph 4 focus on? A. How it works. B. What impact it creates. C. Where it gets light energy. D. Why it uses laser technology. 31. What role does the quartz tuning fork play in PASSEPARTOUT? A. Detecting background noise. B. Generating laser light. C. Reducing sound waves. D. Analyzing gas signals. D In a landmark decision in Germany, a court has ruled that an energy company may be held liable for flood damage caused by climate - change related events. This ruling marks a significant step in holding fossil fuel companies accountable for the consequences of their greenhouse gas emissions. The case began over a decade ago when Peruvian farmer Saul Luciano Lliuya sued German energy giant RWE. Lliuya claimed that the firm's carbon dioxide emissions made it liable in proportion for the increased 高二英语 共 12 页 第 7 页 flood risk to his property. Whether or not his case would succeed initially seemed uncertain. The court would assess whether RWE's contributions to flood risk were legally significant, with some arguing that the connection between the company's emissions and specific weather events was too tenuous. However, times have changed. Eight years ago, when the case was first filed, only a few studies linked specific weather or climate events to climate change. Today, the body of evidence has expanded significantly. The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change states that climate change is already affecting many weather and climate extremes in every region across the globe. This is no longer a matter of scientific uncertainty. A decade ago, courts required plaintiffs in climate cases to prove a direct link to the defendant's actions. But now, the legal standard has shifted. Given the abundant evidence that suggests climate change is affecting every region, it would be extraordinary for a specific area like Lliuya's hometown of Huaraz, high in the Andes, not to be impacted by heat exposure, flood risk, and other climate - related issues. This ruling has far - reaching implications. If fossil fuel companies can be held responsible for climate - related damages, it could lead to more stringent regulations and financial liabilities for them. It also sets a precedent for other similar cases around the world. As climate change continues to bring more extreme weather events, the question of who should bear the cost of the damage is becoming increasingly important. Friederike Otto, a climate scientist, believes this ruling is a crucial step in the fight against inequality. By making fossil fuel companies accountable, we can move towards a more just world where the burden of climate change is not unfairly placed on vulnerable communities. As we look to the future, this ruling could be the start of the end of fossil fuels as we know them. Whether we can free ourselves from the shackles of fossil fuels and redirect our resources towards addressing climate change remains to be seen, but this case is a significant step in the right direction. 32. What was the primary challenge in Lliuya's lawsuit against RWE at the beginning? A. Establishing a legal connection between emissions and flood risks B. Proving the global impact of RWE’s emissions C. Collecting scientific evidence of climate change D. Convincing the court of the farmer’s property value 33. What can be inferred from the change in legal standards for climate cases? A. Courts now require more direct evidence of corporate liability B. Scientific research has influenced judicial attitudes toward climate responsibility 高二英语 共 12 页 第 8 页 C. Fossil fuel companies are exempt from historical emissions liabilities D. Vulnerable communities are no longer affected by climate change 34. What does the author suggest about the ruling’s effect on global climate litigation? A. It will discourage similar lawsuits in other countries B. It solves the problem of determining climate damage responsibility C. It may set a precedent for holding other companies accountable D. It relieves governments of their obligations to address climate change 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. A Peruvian farmer’s struggle against a German energy corporation B. The role of scientific reports in climate change litigation C. A significant legal decision holding fossil fuel companies responsible for climate damages D. The inequality faced by communities affected by climate change 第二节 阅读七选五（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。选项有两项为多余选项。 Failure, in many societal constructs, is often perceived negatively. It is seen as a setback, a barrier, and a mark of incompetence. 36 It is in failure that the seeds of success are often sown, transforming into a tree of knowledge, resilience(韧性), and achievement. 37 It forces us to reevaluate our methods, our understanding, and our approach. It drives us to seek alternative solutions, thereby broadening our perspective and enhancing our creativity. Through failure, we learn to adapt and innovate. For instance, Thomas Edison, whose numerous failed attempts at inventing the electric light bulb (电灯泡) eventually led to a successful design, famously said, “I have not failed. 38 ” Failure is a test of resilience. 39 This resilience is a crucial component of success. It helps develop courage and determination, qualities that are instrumental in overcoming barriers and achieving goals. J.K. Rowling, who faced numerous rejections before finally publishing the Harry Potter series, is a testament to the power of resilience born from failure. Failure is a catalyst(催化剂) for personal and professional growth. It provides valuable insights into our strengths and weaknesses, our capabilities and limitations. By acknowledging and learning from failure, we can improve and grow, becoming better versions of ourselves. 40 In conclusion, failure is a vital part of the journey towards success. By being open to failure, we can 高二英语 共 12 页 第 9 页 unlock our potential and pave the way for success. Our failure, therefore, should not be hidden or regretted but celebrated on the path to achievement. A. It is possible to learn how to avoid failure. B. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won't work. C. Failure is an essential part of the learning process. D. Failure, therefore, is a stepping stone towards success. E. It challenges our ability to bounce back from misfortune. F. I owe my success to the fact that I never had a clock in my workroom. G. However, this mindset overlooks the role failure plays in building success. 第三部分 语言运用（满分15分） 完形填空（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。 I frequently acknowledge that I'm deeply lucky.

Growing up, she was my hero and companion. Every weekend, she would take me on exciting adventures. Whether it was exploring the nearby woods or visiting the local zoo, our weekends were filled with laughter and joy. Little did I know that one of our outings would become a memorable lesson in kindness and bravery. 高二英语 共 12 页 第 12 页 When I was five, a crucial moment in our relationship occurred: Lily learned how to ride a bicycle. “I can do this!” she exclaimed(大声说) one sunny Saturday morning. With her newly acquired skills, she decided to take me on a bike ride to the nearby park. The sun shone brightly in a clear blue sky, and a gentle wind swept through the leaves, creating a perfect day for an adventure. Lily packed a colorful backpack with my favorite snacks-“Chocolate cookies, sweets, and don't forget your toy dinosaur!”-and added my beloved toy for company. As we set off, I felt a mix of excitement and curiosity. Lily's laughter filled the air as she rode the bike, her long hair flowing in the wind. I couldn't help but join her joy, singing silly songs at the top of my lungs. “Twinkle， twinkle， little star！” I sang，my voice echoing in the quiet neighborhood. The world felt peaceful and alive，and I was certain that nothing could ruin this perfect day. However, as we approached a sharp turn, the unexpected happened. Just as we were about to turn, a motorcycle sped by, and a young man, later known as Jake, rushed past us. “Whoa!” Lily shouted. Still mastering her cycling skills, she reacted quickly to avoid a crash, but in doing so, she lost her balance. In a heart-stopping moment, we fell off the bike and collapsed to the ground, the bike crashing beside us. The impact was sudden, and a sharp pain shot through my leg. I let out a loud cry, tears streaming down my cheeks. 注意： 1．续写词数应为 150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Lily, in shock and panic, rushed to my side._______________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ Jake then offered to take us on his motorcycle to a nearby hospital.______________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
