Nik was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer in 2008 when he was 17. He passed away in 2012. But Nik’s kindness and generosity have lived on long after his death. After he was diagnosed and started treatment, Nik was granted (给予) a wish experience from the Make-A-Wish Foundation. “For just this period of time, we didn’t think about cancer, ”Kelli Boehle said. “All we thought about was enjoying our time together. ” In 2009, Nik met another young man Nate, who was also going through cancer treatment. He’d been diagnosed a month after turning 18, and Nik learned he was too old to qualify for a wish. The night before Nik passed away, he asked his mother to help ensure that young adults fighting cancer could have their wishes come true too. “It was like a seed he planted that just wouldn’t stop coming into my mind, ” she said. In 2012, Kelli Boehle started Nik’s Wish. The nonprofit grants wishes to young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 who are battling cancer. Nate was the organization’s first wish recipient. “It’s meant to bring them joy and know that they’re loved and that we’re fighting for them, too, ”Kelli Boehle said. Recently, 19-year-old Jordan Morrow received her wish to attend a Taylor Swift concert as part of a trip to Los Angeles. For Morrow, who has spent the last year battling brain cancer, going to the concert has done more than lift her spirits. “I think it’s something to get me through whatever comes my way, ”she said. “And I’m thankful for Nik’s Wish for that. ” In the 11 years since Nik passed away, the organization has granted more than 300 wishes across more than 30 states. In the beginning, Kelli Boehle says she wasn’t sure she could be a wish maker and work closely with the young adults. But now, it’s her favorite thing to do. 24. What is the goal of Nik’s Wish? A. To make commercial profits. B. To cure the youth of their cancer. C To ease young patients of pains. D. To support young adults fighting cancer. 25. Which word best describes Kelli Boehle? A. Intelligent. B. Selfless. C. Straightforward. D. Ambitious. 26. What can we learn from Jordan Morrow’s words? A. She survived the deadly disease. B. She was granted more than one wish. C. She was motivated by the organization. D. She lifted people’s spirits by performing. 27. What is the best title for the text? A. Pay-It-Forward: A Mother’s Last Wish B. Cancer Battles: Stories of Hope and Perseverance C. Nik’s Wish: Fulfilling Wishes for Young Cancer Fighters D. Make-A-Wish Foundation: Granting Dreams to Young Adults C Why should mankind explore space? Why should money time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth?These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked. Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible. Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin-offs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products of technological developments in the space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist. While many resources are spent on what seems a small return the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist. While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. 28. What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph2? A. Humans are nature-born to do so. B. Humans have the tendency to fight. C. Humans may find new sources of food. D. Humans don’t like to stay in the same place. 29. The underlined word“spin-offs” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to______. A. survival chances B. potential resources C. unexpected benefits D. physical possessions 30. What makes it possible for humans to live on other planets? A. Our genetic makeup. B. Resources on the earth.. C. The adaptive ability of humans. D. By-products in space exploration. 31. Which of the statements can best summarize the passage? A. Space exploration has created many wonders. B. Space exploration provided the best value for money. C. Space exploration can benefit science and technology. D. Space exploration may help us avoid potential problems on Earth. D In recent years, China has witnessed the growth of luxury (奢侈品) brands. In this market, Chinese consumers are now the largest spenders. It’s clear that a new generation of young, materialistic people is increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image. I am a fashionist too, at least in spirit — I love to look at clothes and shoes. But I don’t understand why people spend lots of money on designer labels. When a young woman buys a handbag that costs two months of her salary, that’s a scary thing. What’s interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesn’t lead to happiness. Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we don’t suddenly become “happy” people. In fact, a series of studies by Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US, has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than those who invest it in material things. That’s because experiences are more easily combined with a person’s identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adventure affects how I think in the future. My memories become a part of me. Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through “things” are liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences. It’s natural to want to express yourself through your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that isn’t tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneakers. These people, successful people, have style. You don’t have to break the bank to send a message about who you are. Take a trip. Go out into the world. Then come back and confidently create your own signature look. 32. What can we infer from the first three paragraphs? A. The author enjoys buying luxury brands herself. B. The author agrees to spend money on material things. C. The author is critical of youths tying their looks to designer labels. D. The author finds it natural for fashionists to follow fashion trends. 33. Leaf Van Boven’s studies showed that . A. traveling changes a person’s identity greatly B. people dislike those who love luxuries C. experiences can bring people more happiness than luxuries D. luxuries have a negative effect on people’s happiness 34. What is the author’s advice on expressing oneself? A. Be selective about designer labels. B. Create your own personal unique style. C. Choose styles that are simple and comfortable. D. Try styles like Mark Zuckerberg’s. 35. The main purpose of the article is to . A. persuade readers to invest in experiences instead of luxuries B. prove how luxury leads to an unpleasant life C. tell how to express yourself through appearances D. report on a series of studies about luxuries and happiness 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。 If you are seeking a new career opportunity rather than just a job, you are not alone.

Her mother had prepared a thermos (保温瓶) full of sancocho. It was one of Nilsa’s favorite dishes, and the national dish of Panama — a country in central America and the hometown of Nilsa’s family. Just thinking about sancocho made her mouth water. Finally, it was time for lunch. Nilsa carefully poured some sancocho into a bowl. When she looked up, she saw her classmates staring. “What is that? It smells really bad,” said Gus, covering his nose. “It’s sancocho,” Nilsa responded. “It’s kind of like chicken soup.” Codi glanced at the bowl and said, “Soup? It’s more like a science experiment.” He laughed, pointed to his lunch, and asked, “That’s one weird lunch. Why don’t you eat something normal, like pizza?” Nilsa looked at everyone else’s lunches: pizza, fries, and sandwiches. Suddenly she didn’t feel hungry any more. When Nilsa returned home and complained about her classmates’ negative comments, her mother wasn’t mad. Instead, she listened attentively and reminded Nilsa that there is no such thing as “normal” or “weird” food, and that different cultures have their own unique dishes that are loved and appreciated by those who grew up with them. Nilsa’s mother also suggested making a fresh batch for Nilsa to bring to school the next day. “Then you can share it with your classmates and tell them sancocho tastes great, and that our family has been eating it for hundreds of years. Your great-grandmother taught your grandmother who then taught me. Nilsa nodded in excitement, and she was grateful for the opportunity to share her favorite dish with her classmates. 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。 The next day at lunch, Nilsa pulled out her thermos. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Nilsa returned home and greeted her mother that day, her happiness was beyond description. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 昭通一中教研联盟2023~2024学年下学期高一年级期末质量检测 英语(A卷) 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2.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。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。在试题卷上作答无效。 3.考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，请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。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What are the speakers buying?

M: Now we have a big house with a garden and with trees surrounded. This makes them feel like in the wild. Though it’s not a huge space, at least they can run…probably one day we’ll release them in the jungle or forest in Asia. We will surely miss them, but tigers belong to the wild, not the home with humans. 听下面一段较长对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 13. Why does the woman watch the award ceremony this year? A.

Human activities on the land affected the Earth seriously. Resources on the planet are consumed very quickly, which led people to search into the oceans. Oceanographers and architects have been focusing on designing ships, labs and underwater habitats to enable people to live and work in the underwater world. The pioneer of undersea living was Lan Koblick. He claimed that underwater colonies can already be created with the help of advanced technology. It can accommodate up to one hundred people. He even opened La Chalupa, once the largest and the most advanced underwater habitat and research facility in the world. Ocean Spiral is a recent design by the Japanese Shimizu Corporation for an underwater city. It’s a huge transparent globe attached to the seabed. It has a tower running through it to the surface, providing space for homes, offices and even an amusement park for five hundred people. Masaki Takeuchi, an employee from the company said, “Our idea is to connect the sea surface to the deep sea, and we believe we can make full use of the deep sea space.” 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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Today, there is no list of all of the wonders of the modern world.

Nik was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer in 2008 when he was 17. He passed away in 2012. But Nik’s kindness and generosity have lived on long after his death. After he was diagnosed and started treatment, Nik was granted (给予) a wish experience from the Make-A-Wish Foundation. “For just this period of time, we didn’t think about cancer, ”Kelli Boehle said. “All we thought about was enjoying our time together. ” In 2009, Nik met another young man Nate, who was also going through cancer treatment. He’d been diagnosed a month after turning 18, and Nik learned he was too old to qualify for a wish. The night before Nik passed away, he asked his mother to help ensure that young adults fighting cancer could have their wishes come true too. “It was like a seed he planted that just wouldn’t stop coming into my mind, ” she said. In 2012, Kelli Boehle started Nik’s Wish. The nonprofit grants wishes to young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 who are battling cancer. Nate was the organization’s first wish recipient. “It’s meant to bring them joy and know that they’re loved and that we’re fighting for them, too, ”Kelli Boehle said. Recently, 19-year-old Jordan Morrow received her wish to attend a Taylor Swift concert as part of a trip to Los Angeles. For Morrow, who has spent the last year battling brain cancer, going to the concert has done more than lift her spirits. “I think it’s something to get me through whatever comes my way, ”she said. “And I’m thankful for Nik’s Wish for that. ” In the 11 years since Nik passed away, the organization has granted more than 300 wishes across more than 30 states. In the beginning, Kelli Boehle says she wasn’t sure she could be a wish maker and work closely with the young adults. But now, it’s her favorite thing to do. 24. What is the goal of Nik’s Wish? A. To make commercial profits. B. To cure the youth of their cancer. C. To ease young patients of pains. D. To support young adults fighting cancer. 25. Which word best describes Kelli Boehle? A. Intelligent. B. Selfless. C. Straightforward. D. Ambitious. 26. What can we learn from Jordan Morrow’s words? A. She survived the deadly disease. B. She was granted more than one wish. C. She was motivated by the organization. D. She lifted people’s spirits by performing. 27. What is the best title for the text? A. Pay-It-Forward: A Mother’s Last Wish B. Cancer Battles: Stories of Hope and Perseverance C. Nik’s Wish: Fulfilling Wishes for Young Cancer Fighters D. Make-A-Wish Foundation: Granting Dreams to Young Adults 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Kelli Boehle创办非盈利组织Nik’s Wish，帮助与癌症作斗争的年轻人实现愿望的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“In 2012, Kelli Boehle started Nik’s Wish. The nonprofit grants wishes to young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 who are battling cancer.(2012年，Kelli Boehle创办了Nik’s Wish。这家非营利组织向年龄在18到24岁之间与癌症作斗争的年轻人提供愿望。)”可知，这个组织的目标是支持年轻人对抗癌症。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The night before Nik passed away, he asked his mother to help ensure that young adults fighting cancer could have their wishes come true too.( 尼克去世的前一晚，他请求母亲帮助确保那些与癌症作斗争的年轻人也能实现他们的愿望。)”和文章第四段““It was like a seed he planted that just wouldn’t stop coming into my mind, ” she said. In 2012, Kelli Boehle started Nik’s Wish. The nonprofit grants wishes to young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 who are battling cancer.(“这就像他种下的一颗种子，一直萦绕在我的脑海里，”她说。2012年，Kelli Boehle创办了Nik’s Wish。这家非营利组织向年龄在18到24岁之间与癌症作斗争的年轻人提供愿望。)”可知，Kelli Boehle创办非盈利组织，帮助与癌症作斗争的年轻人，由此可推知，她是无私的。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“For Morrow, who has spent the last year battling brain cancer, going to the concert has done more than lift her spirits. “I think it’s something to get me through whatever comes my way, ”she said. “And I’m thankful for Nik’s Wish for that. ”(对莫罗来说，去年她一直在与脑癌作斗争，去听音乐会不仅仅是提振了她的精神。她说:“我认为这是一种让我度过难关的东西。”“我很感谢尼克的愿望。”)”可推知，从Jordan Morrow的话中，我们可以知道她受到组织的激励。故选C。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“In 2012, Kelli Boehle started Nik’s Wish. The nonprofit grants wishes to young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 who are battling cancer.(2012年，Kelli Boehle创办了Nik’s Wish。这家非营利组织向年龄在18到24岁之间与癌症作斗争的年轻人提供愿望。)”可知，文章主要讲述了文章讲述了Kelli Boehle创办非盈利组织Nik’s Wish，帮助与癌症作斗争的年轻人实现愿望的故事。故选C。 C Why should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth?These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked. Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible. Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin-offs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products of technological developments in the space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist. While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist. While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. 28. What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph2? A. Humans are nature-born to do so. B. Humans have the tendency to fight. C. Humans may find new sources of food. D. Humans don’t like to stay in the same place. 29. The underlined word“spin-offs” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to______. A. survival chances B. potential resources C. unexpected benefits D. physical possessions 30. What makes it possible for humans to live on other planets? A. Our genetic makeup. B. Resources on the earth.. C. The adaptive ability of humans. D. By-products in space exploration. 31. Which of the statements can best summarize the passage? A. Space exploration has created many wonders. B Space exploration provided the best value for money. C. Space exploration can benefit science and technology. D. Space exploration may help us avoid potential problems on Earth. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇科学说明文，介绍了人类探索宇宙的原因，有一大部分是因为人类基因里固有的探索精神，同时，探索宇宙也能为人类找到新的资源和矿石。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. ”也许最好的答案在于我们人类的基因构成。所以人类探索太空的主要原因在于人类基因，故选A。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems.”可知，包括地震预测、气象预报卫星和通信系统的改进。由此判断出我们已经从其他未预料到的益处中获益。所以划线词的意思是“未预料到的益处”选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的首句While earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets.可知，虽然地球是已知的唯一支持生命的行星，但人类的适应能力肯定会让我们生活在其他行星上。所以人类的适应能力使我们在其他星球的居住成为可能，故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。第三段主旨是每个文明都会探索周围文明以减低危险，第四段主旨是探索使得我们能够发现潜在能源。第五段主旨是探索使得很多人发现解决问题的有用资源。总的来说，就可归结为，太空探索可以帮助我们很多，避免很多问题，故选D。 D In recent years, China has witnessed the growth of luxury (奢侈品) brands. In this market, Chinese consumers are now the largest spenders. It’s clear that a new generation of young, materialistic people is increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image. I am a fashionist too, at least in spirit — I love to look at clothes and shoes. But I don’t understand why people spend lots of money on designer labels. When a young woman buys a handbag that costs two months of her salary, that’s a scary thing. What’s interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesn’t lead to happiness. Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we don’t suddenly become “happy” people. In fact, a series of studies by Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US, has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than those who invest it in material things. That’s because experiences are more easily combined with a person’s identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adventure affects how I think in the future. My memories become a part of me. Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through “things” are liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences. It’s natural to want to express yourself through your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that isn’t tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneakers. These people, successful people, have style. You don’t have to break the bank to send a message about who you are. Take a trip. Go out into the world.

Her mother had prepared a thermos (保温瓶) full of sancocho. It was one of Nilsa’s favorite dishes, and the national dish of Panama — a country in central America and the hometown of Nilsa’s family. Just thinking about sancocho made her mouth water. Finally, it was time for lunch. Nilsa carefully poured some sancocho into a bowl. When she looked up, she saw her classmates staring. “What is that? It smells really bad,” said Gus, covering his nose. “It’s sancocho,” Nilsa responded. “It’s kind of like chicken soup.” Codi glanced at the bowl and said, “Soup? It’s more like a science experiment.” He laughed, pointed to his lunch, and asked, “That’s one weird lunch. Why don’t you eat something normal, like pizza?” Nilsa looked at everyone else’s lunches: pizza, fries, and sandwiches. Suddenly she didn’t feel hungry any more. When Nilsa returned home and complained about her classmates’ negative comments, her mother wasn’t mad. Instead, she listened attentively and reminded Nilsa that there is no such thing as “normal” or “weird” food, and that different cultures have their own unique dishes that are loved and appreciated by those who grew up with them. Nilsa’s mother also suggested making a fresh batch for Nilsa to bring to school the next day. “Then you can share it with your classmates and tell them sancocho tastes great, and that our family has been eating it for hundreds of years. Your great-grandmother taught your grandmother who then taught me. Nilsa nodded in excitement, and she was grateful for the opportunity to share her favorite dish with her classmates. 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。 The next day at lunch, Nilsa pulled out her thermos. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Nilsa returned home and greeted her mother that day, her happiness was beyond description. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day at lunch, Nilsa pulled out her thermos.
