石嘴山市第一中学2024-2025学年第二学期高二6月月考 英语试题 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 Astronomy Books for Beginners The End of Everything By Katie Mack Price: $15 How will it all end? It’s a question that has interested theoretical astrophysicist Katie Mack greatly. Will it be the Big Crunch, where the universe collapses in on itself, or the Big Freeze, where the universe continues to expand until it becomes too cold to sustain life? In her New York Times Notable Book of 2020, Mack explores five ways the universe could die. The Milky Way: An Autobiography of Our Galaxy By Moiya McTier Price: $25 “I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night,” opens McTier’s “autobiography” of the galaxy (星系), quoting 19th-century poet Sarah Williams. As a folklorist and astrophysicist, McTier shares the story of our Milky Way’s complex astronomy with precise scientific analysis, and its mythology (神话) with a poetic touch. Five Billion Years of Solitude: The Search for Life Among the Stars By Lee Billings Price: $28 Earth is the only planet scientists know of that supports life — but that may not be the case forever. In Five Billion Years of Solitude, science journalist Lee Billings spends time with some of astronomy’s greats, such as Frank Drake, who used a massive radio telescope to send a signal to life deep in the universe, and Sara Seager, who studies neighboring stars in search of life-bearing planets. Infinite Wonder: An Astronaut’s Photographs from a Year in Space By Scott Kelly Price: $20 Ever wonder what it would be like to spend a year in space? Thanks to astronaut Scott Kelly’s collection of photographs, you can get a closer look. During his yearlong mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS), Kelly took a large number of photos, which help reveal what life aboard the ISS is like. Notice: Members of the Book Huddle Club receive a 10% discount on the above books. 1. What is a key feature of The Milky Way? A. It has quotes from famous scientists. B. It combines science and literature. C. It is filled with amazing photographs. D. It presents the history of space exploration. 2. Whose book deals with the civilizations of outer space? A. Lee Billings’s. B. Scott Kelly’s. C. Katie Mack’s. D. Moiya McTier’s. 3. How much should you pay for all four books if you’re a member of the club? A. $61.2. B. $68. C. $79.2. D. $88. B As an artist working at Cambridge University Botanic Garden, I am leading a special 14-month project called DYE. My mission is to discover plant-based dyes (染料) and share them with visitors, researchers and artists through events, performances, a colour database and projects linked to the Garden’s plant collections. There are some 8,000 plant species in the Garden. Guided by medieval recipes, I experiment with berries, flowers, and bark (树皮) to uncover colours hidden in nature. For example, I’ve transformed roses into vivid red dyes and turned Jade Vine into pink paint. One of my proudest achievements is creating “Newton’s Gold” — a golden-yellow ink made from the bark of Isaac Newton’s historic apple tree. I thought I’d end up with black but it’s a dark golden yellow — unlike modern methods that chemically force predictable results. These discoveries remind me that nature holds endless surprises, but they demand patience and respect. My work isn’t just about mixing colours — it’s about storytelling. Collaborations with historians and dancers connect my dyes to broader themes. I dyed feathers for historians to study ancient costumes and created fabrics reflecting nature’s cycles for a dance performance. By reviving forgotten techniques, such as a 15th-century ink recipe, I bridge the past and present, showing how ancient methods can inspire sustainable solutions to today’s environmental issues. Nature’s colours are ever-changing. The fading of dyes reveals the temporary beauty of natural materials, just as ecosystems’ delicate balance which demands protection. In the Botanic Garden, colours from plants and everyday materials teach me to accept change. These colours aren’t just art supplies; they symbolize nature’s strength and remind us to rethink our relationship with the environment. Through workshops and a colour database, I invite people to view nature differently. My work is a return to the old ways of making colour from my garden herbs, establishing a deeper connection between art and nature. 4. What does the author do on the DYE project? A. Organize and guide garden tours. B Collect and classify plant species. C. Design and run a database of artworks. D. Develop and spread plant-based dyes. 5. Why is “Newton’s Gold” ink significant? A. It honors Newton’s great contributions. B. It shows nature’s unpredictable potentials. C. It links apple trees to scientific inspirations. D. It exposes limitations of modern ink production. 6. What does the underlined word “reviving” mean in paragraph 3? A. Bringing back. B. Putting away. C. Searching for. D. Reflecting on. 7. What is the ultimate goal of the DYE project? A. To improve natural dye stability. B. To protect nature’s ecological balance. C. To strengthen sustainable art-nature bonds. D. To bridge nature and art through gardening. C When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants she didn’t have high hopes for it. But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an explosion in the houseplant industry. “Plants are in fashion right now,” says Dr. Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida. “People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating, ” she says. “Adding more nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol, the stress hormone (激素) in our body. “Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants,” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.” If you’re among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don’t beat yourself up if one (or a few!) doesn’t make it. “Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one,” Detrinidad says. 8. How was Detrinidad’s business when it started? A. It faced tough competition. B. It suffered a great loss. C. It got lots of financial support. D. It went surprisingly well. 9. What is one of Knuth’s findings about plants? A. They appeal more to students. B. They purify the environment. C. They raise the cortisol level. D. They enhance productivity. 10. What does Detrinidad try to explain by mentioning doctors and lawyers? A. The necessity of social skills. B. The meaning of sustainability. C. The importance of repeated efforts. D. The value of professional opinions. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A Time to Replace Houseplants B. Plants Boost Your Mood C. Tips on Choosing Houseplants D. Plants Brighten Your Home D We all have our little daily routines before bed — some of us unwind with a hot shower, others dive into a good book, and some just scroll through their phones until they can’t keep their eyes open. But what if the one thing we’ve been doing every night is actually ruining our chances of a restful sleep? A new study has uncovered a surprising mistake many of us make without even realizing it, and it could be the key to whether you wake up feeling refreshed or not. Researchers from the Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research in the US recorded the results from 50 people aged 65 and over for a year and a half. Through sleep monitors, they were able to see how their surroundings, specifically temperature, impacted their quality of sleep. After analyzing 11,000 nights of sleep, it was concluded that participants had the most efficient sleep when the bedroom temperature was between 20 and 25℃ (68 and 77F). During this temperature range, its participants were at their least restless, with 20℃ (68F) averaging out as the best temperature when studied against hours slept. However, the most restless sleep occurred when temperatures increased to 30℃ when a five to 10 per cent drop in sleep efficiency was recorded. “Our observations point to an exciting opportunity to potentially improve sleep within the older adult population by creating a more comfortable home environment,” researchers revealed. It comes after a separate study revealed the perfect amount of sleep you need each night, from middle to old age, in order to help with cognitive function and mental health. The study looked at the sleeping habits of almost 500,000 adults from the ages of 38 to 73 and discovered that seven hours of sleep was the optimal duration needed for people within that age range. In the study, Cambridge University’s Department of Psychiatry Professor, Barbara Sahakian, explained: “For every hour that you moved away from seven hours, you got worse. It’s very clear that the processes that go on in our brain during sleep are very important for maintaining our physical and mental health.” “Getting a good night’s sleep, ”she added, was important at all stages of life, but particularly as people aged. “I think it is as important as getting exercise.” 12. Why does the author list these little daily routines? A. to advise us to have a hot shower before bed. B. to warn us of not being addicted to phones. C. to encourage us to read a good book for our health. D. to remind us of thinking twice before doing them next time 13. How could people aged over 65 get the most efficient sleep in this research? A. going to bed early and wake up early B. setting the bedroom temperature 20°C C. creating a cool and green home environment D taking an active part in right exercises 14. What happened when the bedroom temperature reached 30°C? A. Sleep efficiency improved by 10%. B. Participants slept 5–10% longer. C. Sleep efficiency dropped by 5–10%. D. No significant change was observed. 15. What did Barbara Sahakian emphasize about sleep duration? A. Eight hours is the perfect amount of sleep for all adults. B. Failing to get seven hours of sleep harms physical and mental health. C. Older adults need more sleep than younger people. D. Exercising replaces the need for sufficient sleep. 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。 Advice for Cooking on a Tight Schedule From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money, and time. ____16____Money is a topic that I’ll talk about another day.

Each group of students would design and build their own robot, which would then be tested in front of members of the school’s judging panel. Ethan and his friends, Mia and Carlos, were on the same team. They were excited but nervous, knowing that they had to come up with something creative and make it work perfectly. On the first day of planning, the team sat down in the library to brainstorm ideas. “I think we should build a robot that can move and pick up small objects,” Mia suggested. Carlos agreed, “That sounds cool, but how are we going to make it move? None of us have ever built a robot before.”Ethan thought for a moment. “We’ll need wheels, a motor, and some kind of remote control,” he said. They all nodded in agreement, but none of them knew where to start. For the next few days, they researched how to build robots, watching tutorials online and reading books from the school library. They made a list of all the parts they would need, including batteries, wires, and wheels. Finally, with the help of their teacher, Mrs Green, they started building the robot after school. It was harder than they expected. Sometimes the wires wouldn’t connect properly, and other times the motor wouldn't start. There were moments when they thought they wouldn’t finish in time for the presentation. The day before the presentation, a disaster struck. As they tested the robot in the classroom, it suddenly stopped moving. “What’s wrong with it?” Mia asked. Ethan inspected the robot carefully. “I think the motor overheated,” he said, looking worried. They only had one night left to fix it, and they were out of ideas. “We can’t give up now,” Carlos said firmly. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 That evening, the team stayed late at school to try to fix the problem. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, the students in the classroom were excited as each team presented their robot to the school. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 石嘴山市第一中学2024-2025学年第二学期高二6月月考 英语试题 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 Astronomy Books for Beginners The End of Everything By Katie Mack Price: $15 How will it all end?

(我的任务是发现植物染料，并通过活动、表演、一个颜色数据库以及与植物园植物收藏相关的项目，与游客、研究人员和艺术家分享这些染料。)”可知，作者在DYE项目中开发并传播基于植物的染料。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“One of my proudest achievements is creating “Newton’s Gold” — a golden-yellow ink made from the bark of Isaac Newton’s historic apple tree. I thought I’d end up with black but it’s a dark golden yellow — unlike modern methods that chemically force predictable results. These discoveries remind me that nature holds endless surprises, but they demand patience and respect. (我最引以为豪的成就之一是创造了“牛顿金”——一种由艾萨克・牛顿那棵具有历史意义的苹果树的树皮制成的金黄色墨水。我原以为最后会得到黑色，但它却是深金黄色——这与现代方法不同，现代方法通过化学手段强制得出可预测的结果。这些发现提醒我，大自然蕴藏着无尽的惊喜，但它们需要耐心和尊重。)”可知，“牛顿金”墨水意义重大是因为它展示了大自然不可预测的潜力。故选B。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“By reviving forgotten techniques, such as a 15th-century ink recipe, I bridge the past and present, showing how ancient methods can inspire sustainable solutions to today’s environmental issues. (通过reviving那些被遗忘的技艺，比如一种15世纪的墨水制作配方，我架起了连接过去与现在的桥梁，展示了古老的方法是如何能够为当今的环境问题带来可持续的解决方案的。)”可知，作者通过“恢复”被遗忘的技术，连接过去和现在，所以reviving意思是“恢复，使……重新流行”，与Bringing back意思相近。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Through workshops and a colour database, I invite people to view nature differently. My work is a return to the old ways of making colour from my garden herbs, establishing a deeper connection between art and nature. (通过工作室和一个颜色数据库，我邀请人们以不同的方式看待自然。我的工作是回归到用我花园里的药草制作颜色的古老方式，在艺术和自然之间建立更深刻的联系。)”可推断，DYE项目的最终目标是加强可持续的艺术与自然的联系。故选C。 C When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn’t have high hopes for it.

But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. (当Sonja Detrinidad开设她的网店售卖室内植物时，她并没有抱太大的期望。但结果却恰恰相反：订单如潮水般涌来，仅在2020年6月就寄出了1200份订单)”可知，Sonja Detrinidad刚开始开网店卖室内植物时，并没有抱太大希望，但实际情况是订单很多，生意出奇地好。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的““Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants,” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.”(Knuth表示：“身处植物周围的学生，其学业表现比在没有植物的教室里的学生更出色。这种效率提升同样适用于成年人的工作场合。我们的研究显示，在植物丰富的工作环境中，人们的病假率降低了 30%。”)”可知，Knuth的研究发现，接触植物的学生学业表现更好，成年人在植物丰富的工作环境中生产率提高，病假率降低，因此，“植物能提升生产率”是她的发现之一。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的““Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one,” Detrinidad says. (Detrinidad说：“医生需要不断实践医术，律师需要持续精进法律实务，而养护植物同样需要给自己练习的机会。照料植物是一种培养耐心和学习的过程。要用心呵护它，但如果它枯萎了，就再养一株新的。”)”可知，Detrinidad通过类比医生和律师需要不断实践来强调“照顾植物需要反复尝试”。她认为养植物失败是正常的，重要的是持续努力。由此推断，她提到医生和律师是为了解释“重复努力的重要性”。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段以Detrinidad的成功为例引出室内植物行业的兴起，第二段至第三段通过Knuth的研究说明植物能通过降低皮质醇水平改善心情、提升生产率，第四段鼓励人们尝试养植物。全文核心围绕“植物对情绪和健康的积极影响”展开。选项B“Plants Boost Your Mood (植物改善你的情绪)”最能概括文章主旨，适合作为文章的标题。故选B。 D We all have our little daily routines before bed — some of us unwind with a hot shower, others dive into a good book, and some just scroll through their phones until they can’t keep their eyes open. But what if the one thing we’ve been doing every night is actually ruining our chances of a restful sleep? A new study has uncovered a surprising mistake many of us make without even realizing it, and it could be the key to whether you wake up feeling refreshed or not. Researchers from the Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research in the US recorded the results from 50 people aged 65 and over for a year and a half. Through sleep monitors, they were able to see how their surroundings, specifically temperature, impacted their quality of sleep. After analyzing 11,000 nights of sleep, it was concluded that participants had the most efficient sleep when the bedroom temperature was between 20 and 25℃ (68 and 77F). During this temperature range, its participants were at their least restless, with 20℃ (68F) averaging out as the best temperature when studied against hours slept. However, the most restless sleep occurred when temperatures increased to 30℃ when a five to 10 per cent drop in sleep efficiency was recorded. “Our observations point to an exciting opportunity to potentially improve sleep within the older adult population by creating a more comfortable home environment,” researchers revealed. It comes after a separate study revealed the perfect amount of sleep you need each night, from middle to old age, in order to help with cognitive function and mental health. The study looked at the sleeping habits of almost 500,000 adults from the ages of 38 to 73 and discovered that seven hours of sleep was the optimal duration needed for people within that age range. In the study, Cambridge University’s Department of Psychiatry Professor, Barbara Sahakian, explained: “For every hour that you moved away from seven hours, you got worse. It’s very clear that the processes that go on in our brain during sleep are very important for maintaining our physical and mental health.” “Getting a good night’s sleep, ”she added, was important at all stages of life, but particularly as people aged. “I think it is as important as getting exercise.” 12. Why does the author list these little daily routines? A. to advise us to have a hot shower before bed. B. to warn us of not being addicted to phones. C. to encourage us to read a good book for our health. D. to remind us of thinking twice before doing them next time 13. How could people aged over 65 get the most efficient sleep in this research? A. going to bed early and wake up early B. setting the bedroom temperature 20°C C. creating a cool and green home environment D. taking an active part in right exercises 14. What happened when the bedroom temperature reached 30°C? A. Sleep efficiency improved by 10%. B. Participants slept 5–10% longer. C. Sleep efficiency dropped by 5–10%. D. No significant change was observed. 15. What did Barbara Sahakian emphasize about sleep duration? A. Eight hours is the perfect amount of sleep for all adults. B. Failing to get seven hours of sleep harms physical and mental health. C. Older adults need more sleep than younger people. D. Exercising replaces the need for sufficient sleep. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了两项关于睡眠的研究：一项发现卧室温度在20至25摄氏度时人们睡眠质量最佳；另一项发现38至73岁的成年人每晚睡7小时最有利于认知功能和心理健康。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段，作者列举了人们睡前的一些小习惯，如洗热水澡、看书或玩手机等，紧接着通过“But what if the one thing we’ve been doing every night is actually ruining our chances of a restful sleep? (但如果我们每天晚上做的事情实际上正在破坏我们获得宁静睡眠的机会呢？)”这一问题引出下文关于睡前习惯可能影响睡眠质量的研究。因此，作者列举这些小习惯是为了引起读者的反思，提醒大家在下次做这些习惯之前要三思，以免破坏睡眠质量。故选D。 13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“After analyzing 11,000 nights of sleep, it was concluded that participants had the most efficient sleep when the bedroom temperature was between 20 and 25℃(68 and 77F). During this temperature range, its participants were at their least restless, with 20℃ (68F) averaging out as the best temperature when studied against hours slept. (在分析了11000个夜晚的睡眠后，研究人员得出结论，当卧室温度在20至25摄氏度(68至77华氏度)之间时，参与者获得了最有效的睡眠。在这个温度范围内，参与者最不容易烦躁，与睡眠时间相比，20摄氏度(68华氏度)平均为最佳温度。)”可知，65岁以上的人在这项研究中通过将卧室温度设定为20℃可以获得最有效的睡眠。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“However, the most restless sleep occurred when temperatures increased to 30C when a five to 10 per cent drop in sleep efficiency was recorded. (然而，当温度上升到30°C时，出现了最烦躁的睡眠，此时睡眠效率下降了5%到10%。)”可知，当卧室温度达到30°C时，睡眠效率下降了5–10%。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中Barbara Sahakian的话“For every hour that you moved away from seven hours, you got worse. It’s very clear that the processes that go on in our brain during sleep are very important for maintaining our physical and mental health. (你每偏离七小时一个小时，情况就会变得更糟。很明显，睡眠时大脑进行的过程对于维持我们的身心健康非常重要。)”可知，Barbara Sahakian强调睡眠不足七小时会损害身心健康。故选B。 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。 Advice for Cooking on a Tight Schedule From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money, and time. ____16____Money is a topic that I’ll talk about another day.

I usually think cooking is a pain when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook?

Each group of students would design and build their own robot, which would then be tested in front of members of the school’s judging panel. Ethan and his friends, Mia and Carlos, were on the same team. They were excited but nervous, knowing that they had to come up with something creative and make it work perfectly. On the first day of planning, the team sat down in the library to brainstorm ideas. “I think we should build a robot that can move and pick up small objects,” Mia suggested. Carlos agreed, “That sounds cool, but how are we going to make it move? None of us have ever built a robot before.”Ethan thought for a moment. “We’ll need wheels, a motor, and some kind of remote control,” he said. They all nodded in agreement, but none of them knew where to start. For the next few days, they researched how to build robots, watching tutorials online and reading books from the school library. They made a list of all the parts they would need, including batteries, wires, and wheels. Finally, with the help of their teacher, Mrs Green, they started building the robot after school. It was harder than they expected. Sometimes the wires wouldn’t connect properly, and other times the motor wouldn't start. There were moments when they thought they wouldn’t finish in time for the presentation. The day before the presentation, a disaster struck. As they tested the robot in the classroom, it suddenly stopped moving. “What’s wrong with it?” Mia asked. Ethan inspected the robot carefully. “I think the motor overheated,” he said, looking worried. They only had one night left to fix it, and they were out of ideas. “We can’t give up now,” Carlos said firmly. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 That evening, the team stayed late at school to try to fix the problem. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day the students in the classroom were excited as each team presented their robot to the school. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: That evening, the team stayed late at school to try to fix the problem. After hours of troubleshooting, Ethan finally figured out what was wrong. One of the wires had come loose, causing the motor to stop working. With renewed energy, the team worked together to reconnect the wires and test the robot again. To their relief, it moved across the floor, picking up a pencil just as they had planned. “We did it” Mia shouted excitedly. They couldn’t believe that after all the hard work, their robot was finally working again. The next day, the students in the classroom were excited as each team presented their robot to the school. When it was Ethan, Mia, and Carlos’s turn, they demonstrated how their robot could move around and pick up objects. The audience cheered as the robot performed perfectly.
