My winning photo was taken in front of the library, where a cherry blossom tree was blooming. Pink petals were falling gently onto the ground while students sat on the grass reading or chatting. Not only did the winning boost my confidence in pursuing photography as a hobby, but it also inspired me to embrace the hidden beauty in school. What about the spring on your campus? Looking forward to your reply. Best regards, Li Hua 第二节 （满分25分） 范文一  I fell to the ground. The sharp pain in my leg made me wince, and I was completely at a loss. The onlookers held their breath, and a deathly silence hung over the field. At that moment, Matt, who was some distance behind, saw what had happened. Without hesitation, he rushed towards me. “Are you okay?” he asked, his voice filled with concern. I was too embarrassed to answer, but he didn't wait for a reply. He bent down and tried to help me up. “Come on, we can do this together,” he said firmly.  Arm in arm, we walked toward the finish line. The crowd, who had been silent, now began to cheer. Their applause grew louder and louder as we took each step. With every step, I felt a mix of pain and gratitude. When we finally crossed the line, the cheers reached a crescendo. Matt and I looked at each other, and I saw a light in his eyes that I had never noticed before. In that moment, I realized that winning wasn’t everything. True victory came from the kindness and determination that Matt had shown me. This experience changed me forever, and I would always be grateful to Matt for teaching me this valuable lesson.  范文二  I fell to the ground. My leg throbbed painfully, and I knew my dream of winning the third race was shattered. The once - excited crowd now looked at me with pity. Just then, Matt arrived. He didn't hesitate for a second. He knelt down beside me and said, “Don't worry, I'm here.” His words were simple but full of power. I felt a sense of shame for my earlier disrespect towards him. He helped me to my feet, and we started moving slowly.  Arm in arm, we walked toward the finish line. The audience, at first shocked, gradually began to clap. Their applause was no longer just for a winner but for our joint effort. Every step was a struggle, but Matt's support gave me the strength to keep going. As we crossed the finish line, the applause was deafening. I turned to Matt and said, “Thank you.” He smiled and replied, “We all need a hand sometimes.” From that day on, I learned that success isn't measured by winning alone. It's about helping others and showing courage in difficult times. Matt, with his kind heart, had become my real hero.  范文三  I fell to the ground. Panic and pain surged through me. I glanced up and saw Matt approaching. I thought he would pass me by and claim the victory he deserved. But to my astonishment, he stopped. “Let me help you,” he said softly. I looked at him in disbelief, remembering my mean thoughts about him earlier. Without waiting for my response, he put my arm around his shoulder and lifted me up.  Arm in arm, we walked toward the finish line. The crowd, who had expected a one-sided race, were now on their feet, cheering for us. Their cheers were like a warm current, giving us the energy to continue. With each step, I felt a newfound respect for Matt. When we finally crossed the finish line, I was overcome with emotion. I had lost the race in the traditional sense, but I had gained something far more precious. Matt had taught me the true meaning of sportsmanship and kindness. From then on, I vowed to be a better person and always remember the lesson he had taught me that day.  ( ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$1 2023级高二下学期期末考试 英语试题 本试卷共 6页，满分 150分。考试用时 120分钟 。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都 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.

They experienced lots of challenges. Read on and get inspired! J. K. Rowling J. K. Rowling had just got a divorce and couldn’t afford to feed her baby just three years before the first Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, was published. She was so poor that she couldn’t afford a computer. Her novel was rejected dozens of times before a London publisher gave it a second chance after the CEO’s daughter fell in love with it. Stephen King Stephen King received 60 rejections before selling his first short story, The Glass Floor, for $35. Even his now best-selling book, Carrie, wasn’t a hit at first. After dozens of rejections, he finally sold it for a paltry（微小的）advance to Doubleday Publishing, where the hardback sold only 13, 000 copies. Unexpectedly, Signet Books signed on for the paperback rights for $400,000, half of which went to King. Success achieved! Colonel Harland Sanders Colonel Harland Sanders, the founder of KFC, first started cooking chicken in1930, when he was 40, during the Great Depression. In the 1950s, he was forced to close his business. To survive, he set out to find restaurants willing to accept his secret recipe for fried chicken. He drove around and was rejected more than 1,000 times before finally finding his first partner. Walt Disney In 1919, Walt Disney was fired from his first animation job at the Kansas City Star newspaper because his editor felt he lacked imagination and had no good ideas. Then he acquired Laugh-O-Gram, an animation studio he later drove into bankruptcy. Also, he was rejected over 300 times for his Disneyland concept. The Walt Disney company is now well known around the world. 21. What do we know about J. K. Rowling? A. She finished her work in hard circumstances. B. Her computer used to break down frequently. C. She spent a year on her first Harry Potter book. D. Her daughter persuaded a London publisher for her. 22. What made Colonel Harland Sanders decide to sell his recipe? A. The ambition to be the richest man. B. The wish to make the best fried chicken. C. The pressure from low income as he aged. D. The benefits of driving around nationwide. 23. In which column of a website can the text be found? A. Celebrity News. B. Inspirational Stories. C. History and Facts. D. Health and Lifestyle. B A group of volunteers joined forces to form a human chain to free four dolphins which had been stranded (搁浅）in a canal (运河）for four days. The four dolphins were seen in the water near the Fossil Park neighborhood in St. Petersburg, Florida, US, on Sunday. Experts from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) had monitored the dolphins’ activities in the past few days and hoped that they would swim out with the tide. But when the dolphins struggled to leave the canal, the brave volunteers joined members of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium to form a rescue team to free them. Dozens of people gathered to take videos and pictures of the kind act. A team of 14 volunteers held hands to act as a block to guide the dolphins out of the narrow channel. They shouted and patted the water with their hands to direct the dolphins to vast expanses of Riviera Bay. Dolphins find their way in the water through echolocation(回声定位）. That means that they can recognize the echoes of sound waves that bounce off objects to find their way around. 3 Andy Garrett, a biologist of the FWC, said, “We were able to keep that chain together. The dolphins were interested. They actually came over right away.” He added that when the team reached a bridge, the dolphins appeared a bit nervous and started doing some spins. “They wandered for a while and then went under the bridge and took off,” Garrett said. The operation lasted about 45minutes and the rescue team did not use nets or any items that could stress the dolphins. 24. What do we know about the dolphins from paragraph 1? A. They formed a chain to protect themselves. B. They lived in the water near the Fossil Park. C. They were observed in secret by volunteers. D. They were forced to stay in a canal for four days. 25. Why did the volunteers shout and pat the water? A. To make sounds to attract some people. B. To guide the dolphins out to Riviera Bay. C. To celebrate the success of saving dolphins. D. To test the different reactions of the dolphins. 26. What words can best describe the volunteers? A. Brave and caring. B. Cautious and humorous. C. Smart and ambitious. D. Optimistic and energetic. 27. What’s the main idea of the text? A. Dolphins swam to the canal to hunt for food. B. Rescuers formed a human chain to save dolphins. C. Volunteers helped four dolphins escape from nets. D. Experts studied the ways of dolphins’ finding directions. C Artificial intelligence-enabled voice cloning tools have made it easier for criminals to imitate strangers’ voices and trick victims into handing over large sums of money. For example, a scammer might target a victim posing as their grandchild and claiming they require cash fast. Older people who might not be familiar with new technologies such as AI can be particularly subject to these types of scams, particularly when the caller on the other line sounds identical to a loved one. In 2023, senior citizens were cheated out of roughly $3.4 billion in a range of financial crimes, according to the FBI data. The agency recently warned that AI has increased the “believability” or criminal scams by assisting with content creation and correcting human errors that might otherwise serve as warning signs of a trick. “So much of the fraud (欺诈)is based on psychology,” Chuck Herrin, field chief information security officer for F5, a security and fraud prevention firm, told CBS MoneyWatch. “They say things that bring about a fear-based emotional response because they know when humans get afraid, we get stupid and don’t exercise the best judgement.” Cybersecurity experts have a simple but effective recommendation for avoiding getting victimized by such scams: creating a family “safe word” to verify a family member or loved one’s identity. That means choosing a word or phrase that can’t be easily guessed. “It needs to be unique and should be something that’s difficult to guess,” James Scobey, chief information security officer at Keeper Security, told CBS MoneyWatch. “It shouldn’t be something that can be researched online about you or your family. Avoid street names, towns, phone numbers and individual names as part of a pass phrase.” A safe phrase, consisting of at least four words, offers a greater degree of security, he added. Using a safe word is a good first line of defense against scammers. So, any time you are asked for financial assistance, always ask for the safe word before transferring any money. 28. What is the threat posed by AI-enabled voice cloning tools? A. They help strangers create fake identities. B. They trick victims into giving away money. C. They increase the believability of a grandchild. D. They prevent victims from recovering lost funds. 29. What is the psychological strategy used in fraud? A. Inspiring physical response. B. Assisting with content creation. C. Using fright to cause poor judgement. D. Interrupting the decision-making process. 30. What does the underlined word “verify” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Expose. B. Confirm. C. Suggest. D. Represent. 31. What is recommended when creating a safe phrase? A. It should be shared with new friends. B. It should be the same for every family member. C. It should be easily recalled by family members. D. It should avoid using personal details found online. 4 D A recent discovery shows that birds might have appeared on Earth 20 million years earlier than initially thought. This claim is based on a set of fossils found two years ago in Fujian’s county of Zhenghe. A team of scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the Fujian Institute of Geological Survey said in a recent study the fossils belong to a bird from the late Middle Jurassic period, about 150 million years ago. Its fossils appear to be the only known clear-cut record of Jurassic birds and rewrite the history of their evolution. Published in Nature journal on Feb 13, the study focuses on the bird species called Baminornis zhenghensis (政和八闽鸟). CAS scientists said the fossils revealed the bird’s unique features, such as birdlike shoulders and hand structures, common in non-avian (非鸟类的 ) dinosaurs. More importantly, Baminornis’ tail gives us a better understanding of how different it was from dinosaurs, “What makes the Baminornis unique is that it has a short tail that consists of the pygostyle (尾综骨),” CAS researcher Wang Min said. “This is a key feature of the modern bird’s body plan.” Also, birds tend to have shorter tails than dinosaurs with fewer tail vertebrae (尾椎 骨 ), the last few of which for a pygostyle. This adaptation was crucial because it shifted the body’s center of gravity forward. Besides, independent movement of the back legs and tail gave it better flight capabilities. Before scientists learned about the Baminornis 160 years ago, the Archaeopteryx (始祖鸟) was considered the earliest bird because of its feather fossils, “At that time, feathers were considered exclusive to birds,” said Zhou Zhonghe, another CAS scientist. However, we can’t rely on single-trait classification anymore. Thanks to evolutionary relationships, we now know that some dinosaurs also had feathers, Zhou added. Stephen Brusatte, from the School of GeoSciences at the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom, considers the Baminornisa landmark discovery which “ranks among the most important bird fossils unearthed since the discovery of the Archaeopteryx in the early 1860s”. 32. What is the significance of the Baminornis discovery? A. It redefines when birds first appeared. B. It confirms the earliest ancestors of birds. C. It proves that birds evolved from dinosaurs. D. It challenges existing theories of bird evolution. 33. What makes the Baminornis different from dinosaurs? A. It has birdlike hand structures. B. It has a long, feathered tail. C. It lacks vertebrae in the tail. D. Its tail features a pygostyle. 34. What does Zhou suggest about feathers in evolution? A. They are not unique to birds. B. They are the only feature to birds. C. They are the key to studying birds. D. They are the most important discovery. 35. How does Stephen Brusatte view the discovery? A. As a minor adjustment. B. As an unproven theory. C. As a turning point. D. As a rediscovery. 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。 Most kids spent their summer holidays playing video-games, watching TV and sleeping in.

My classmates called me Incredible Dash. One day, there was a sporting event planned in my school. Well-prepared for the running competition, I took part in almost every race there was. A large number of people gathered to watch. They were eager to see the running race because it was the most exciting event. When the race for 400m started, all the boys ran fast. Unsurprisingly, I finished first in the race and received a big round of applause. While it was tiring, I felt proud and was on top of the world. In the race for 200m, I ran full speed and finished the race first once again. The crowd gave thundering claps. I jumped all over the ground and didn't even bother to give handshakes to my fellow racers. Then came the race for 100m. Discouraged by the previous races, most boys quit the race except one, a boy named Matt who was invited as an honorary runner. Matt was born with low vision but he was a determined participant of many sports. The judge came to Matt and explained the situation, asking whether he would like to quit too. I, wild with joy, thought I would win the champion without effort. However, to everyone's surprise, Matt decided to complete the event. I sniffed (嗤之以鼻), “It is a waste of time. I bet he even doesn't figure out where the finish line is.” The race of two started. On hearing the starting gun, both Matt and I ran to the finish line. Soon I sped up and left Matt behind. Just 30 meters before arriving at the finish line, I was expecting to receive the applause for the third time when I suffered a leg spasm (抽筋). 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。 I fell to the ground. Arm in arm, we walked toward the finish line.
