Rounding out all that unspoiled nature are ancient castles, historic villages, and pubs alive with traditional music. Here’s the best way to experience this colorful corner of Europe. Rocky coves The southwest’s rocky coves are rich with seaweed, revealing a little-known piece of Irish history. “In the past people couldn’t eat meat so they would go down around these shores and get laver, or sleabhac, as it’s high in protein,” says Kerryann O’Farrell of Atlantic Irish Seaweed, whose guides lead educational sea vegetable walks at Derrynane Harbour. Cape Clear Island Located eight miles off the southern coast, Cape Clear Island (Oileán Chleire) is one of Irish-speaking Gaeltacht areas, which can be found in seven counties and on some islands. On Cape, the former girls school now houses the Heritage Centre with exhibits on the island’s maritime history and culture. Don’t miss the goat milk ice cream at local favorite Cléire Goats. The River Corrib While Shop Street and Eyre Square draw the crowds the Western neighborhood across the River Corrib is the soul of the city. Soak up the bohemian vibe at places like Bell Book and Candle, a treasure trove for new and second-hand books; the monthly Flea Style Market inside the Galway Arts Centre; and the Crane Bar, which features some of the city’s best “trad” fiddle and bodhrán players. Great Lighthouses of Ireland Great Lighthouses of Ireland offers a guide to noteworthy beacons around the country. One of the most remote, St. John’s Point Lighthouse rises at the end of a narrow peninsula in County Donegal, looking out to Donegal Bay and County Sligo. Stay overnight in Clipper or Schooner, the former lighthouse keepers’ residences, and experience the solitude of keeping watch. Naturally, there’s no Wi-Fi, so unwind and read a book beside the fire, or explore the headland at sunrise. 1. What can’t you do in Cape Clear Island? A Appreciate local language. B.

Among her numerous honors are her roles as an advocate for education, a human rights activist, and a Nobel Peace Prize winner. Born in Mingora, Pakistan, in 1997, Malala encountered tough challenges from a young age, yet she emerged as a global symbolization of resilience (坚韧) and unwavering determination. At the age of 11, Malala embarked on her advocacy for girls’ education in her hometown, undeterred by the threats from the Taliban, who fiercely opposed female education. Her remarkable courage and perseverance drew international attention, but it also made her a high-profile target. In 2012, she was the victim of a brutal attack by a gunman while en route home from school. The assassination (暗杀) attempt, intended to silence her, paradoxically strengthened her voice on the global stage, spreading her message to an international audience. How did Malala Yousafzai transform adversity (逆境) into advocacy and become global icon status? Following her arduous recovery, she persisted in championing the right to education. Her first speech at the United Nations in 2013 represented a crucial moment in her pursuit. Subsequently, she co-authored her memoir, “I Am Malala”, which became international bestseller status. In 2014, at the age of 17, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, becoming the youngest-ever winner for her brave struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the universal right to education. Malala’s activism exceeds the field of education. She has used her influential platform to advocate for human rights, gender equality, and peace. Her organization, the Malala Fund, is dedicated to ensuring that every girl has access to 12 years of free, safe, and quality education. Despite the challenges she has faced, Malala remains an indomitable beacon of hope and inspiration for millions across the globe. 4. Why did the 2012 attack on Malala backfire? A.

C “ChatGPT is a computer program that can understand and respond to text like a person. It’s like havinga conversation with a very smart robot,” says ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence text generator. In November of 2022, the computer program ChatGPT generated significant public interest across the globe for its broad applications and commercial value. This AI model demonstrated its ability to perform a variety of tasks, from generating book summaries, recommendations, and personal research assistance, to drafting college SOPs, essays, and emails. According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering. With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. The use of ChatGPT for homework assignments is a growing concern for professors across the globe. The University, on the other hand, has not addressed or made a statement on this matter. There are potential academic violations for homework and exams. One such case is Professor of Political Science and Business David Primo. He entered one of his previous test questions into ChatGPT, and ChatGPT got it exactly correct. Despite concerns, Primo understands that the issue of academic honesty is a concern that has existed and will exist forever. He talks about this as well as the many other negative uses of the internet, saying “The internet makes it easy to spread hateful messages and pirate music, but do you want to go back to a time where you couldn’t bank online, or listen to music online?” Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo. 8. What makes the program a great breakthrough? A. Its ability to perform various tasks. B. Its achievements in learning technology. C Its wide application and commercial value. D. The combination of its concept and AI model. 9. What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean? A. dispute B. support C. disadvantage D. mistake 10. What might Primo agree with regarding the use of ChatGPT? A. It is a double-edged sword. B. It has little impact on academia. C. Its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. D. It should be prohibited for academic integrity. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. ChatGPT demonstrates its great strength. B. ChatGPT generates great argument. C. ChatGPT arouses significant public interest. D. ChatGPT causes the potential academic violations. D In 2022, the Nature Conservancy launched two 5-year pilot projects at working ranches (牧场) in Kansas and New Mexico to determine if virtual fences enable land managers to better perform regenerative management practices and to assess potential benefits for biodiversity and for ranchers’ bottom lines, as well as impacts on soil carbon storage. Applauded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a climate adaption strategy, virtual fencing is an innovative technology that enables ranchers to use a smartphone or web app to remotely monitor and control where and when cattle graze (吃草). Virtual fences can reduce the need for physical fences, which require significant time, expense and labor to maintain. Physical fences also limit land managers in their ability to change grazing boundaries to adapt to seasonal changes in vegetation or to exclude cattle from ecologically sensitive areas. The cows are outfitted with battery-operated, GPS-enabled collars that send out a radio frequency to communicate with reception towers, creating virtual grazing boundaries set by a rancher. When a cow approaches the edge of the virtual boundary, the collar produces a sound signaling it to turn around. If the cow proceeds to cross the boundary, it receives a momentary mild shock, signaling that it’s gone too far and should rejoin its group. Grasslands are the least protected habitat on earth and one of the most effective carbon sinks, storing up to 20% of the world’s soil organic carbon. Unfortunately, grasslands are continuing to rapidly disappear for several reasons. For ecological health, most grassland ecosystems need periods of disturbance to aerate (使透气) the soil, stimulate plant growth and recycle nutrients into the soil. Ranchers complete this disturbance-rest cycle by managing the timing, location, herd size and intensity of grazing activities, all of which can be time-consuming and painstaking. “Currently, the costs of virtual fencing are still high, but in the long run it can help land managers better carry out management practices that regenerate land health, help address climate change and biodiversity loss,” said William Burnidge, director of the Nature Conservancy. 12. What’s stressed concerning virtual fencing in paragraph 2? A. Its smart design. B. Its major advantages. C. Its wide application. D. Its working principles. 13. What does the mild shock indicate to the cow? A. It’s time to return. B. It’s time to graze. C. It’s in danger. D. It’s in a wrong direction. 14. What’s unavoidable for ranchers to complete the disturbance-rest cycle? A. Intense efforts. B. Polluted soil. C. Financial failure. D. Ecological imbalance. 15. What’s Mr. Burnidge’s attitude to virtual fencing? A. Intolerant. B. Objective. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative. 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。 As the world’s population increases, so does the need for food, especially from animal sources.

It was a dark, damp tunnel (隧道) made of smooth branches. This year she had the extra joy of showing it to her small brother, Stephen, and terrifying him as well as herself. One day they found a hole on one side of the walk. Inside there was water, in which they perceived a panting trout (喘息的鳟鱼). They were both so excited that they were no longer afraid of the darkness as they bent down and peered at the fish panting in his tiny prison, his silver stomach going up and down like an engine; otherwise he was motionless. Julia wondered what he ate and thought of his hunger. She found him a worm. He ignored the food, and just went on panting. Bending over him, she thought how he had been in there. All the winter, in the dark tunnel, all day, all night, floating around alone. Nobody knew how the fish got there. Her mother suggested that a bird had carried the egg. Her father thought that in the winter a small stream might have carried it down there as a baby and it has been safe until summer came and the water began to dry up. Before they went to bed, Stephen asked his mummy the whole story of the trout, not really interested in the actual trout, but in the story which his mum began to make up for him, and Julia, in her bed, presented her back to them and read her book. But she kept one ear cocked. “And so, in the end, this naughty fish got bigger and bigger, and the water got smaller and smaller...” Passionately, she turned around and cried, “Mummy, don’t make it a horrible old moral story. Her mom even brought in a fairy (仙子), who had made it rain and filled the hole, so that the trout could float away down to the river below. Staring at the moon she knew there was no such thing as a fairy and that trout, down in the tunnel, was panting for his life. 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。 She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 惠州市实验中学2023级高二下第二次阶段性检测5（5月） 英语 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Green fields and hills give Ireland its “Emerald Isle” nickname.

Applauded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a climate adaption strategy, virtual fencing is an innovative technology that enables ranchers to use a smartphone or web app to remotely monitor and control where and when cattle graze (吃草). Virtual fences can reduce the need for physical fences, which require significant time, expense and labor to maintain. Physical fences also limit land managers in their ability to change grazing boundaries to adapt to seasonal changes in vegetation or to exclude cattle from ecologically sensitive areas. The cows are outfitted with battery-operated, GPS-enabled collars that send out a radio frequency to communicate with reception towers, creating virtual grazing boundaries set by a rancher. When a cow approaches the edge of the virtual boundary, the collar produces a sound signaling it to turn around. If the cow proceeds to cross the boundary, it receives a momentary mild shock, signaling that it’s gone too far and should rejoin its group. Grasslands are the least protected habitat on earth and one of the most effective carbon sinks, storing up to 20% of the world’s soil organic carbon. Unfortunately, grasslands are continuing to rapidly disappear for several reasons. For ecological health, most grassland ecosystems need periods of disturbance to aerate (使透气) the soil, stimulate plant growth and recycle nutrients into the soil. Ranchers complete this disturbance-rest cycle by managing the timing, location, herd size and intensity of grazing activities, all of which can be time-consuming and painstaking. “Currently, the costs of virtual fencing are still high, but in the long run it can help land managers better carry out management practices that regenerate land health, help address climate change and biodiversity loss,” said William Burnidge, director of the Nature Conservancy. 12. What’s stressed concerning virtual fencing in paragraph 2? A. Its smart design. B. Its major advantages. C. Its wide application. D. Its working principles. 13 What does the mild shock indicate to the cow? A. It’s time to return. B. It’s time to graze. C. It’s in danger. D. It’s in a wrong direction. 14. What’s unavoidable for ranchers to complete the disturbance-rest cycle? A. Intense efforts. B. Polluted soil. C. Financial failure. D. Ecological imbalance. 15. What’s Mr. Burnidge’s attitude to virtual fencing? A. Intolerant. B. Objective. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国大自然保护协会启动虚拟围栏试点项目，利用智能项圈控制牛群放牧，旨在评估其对草地管理、生物多样性及土壤碳储存的潜在益处，助力可持续农业与气候适应。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段“Applauded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a climate adaption strategy, virtual fencing is an innovative technology that enables ranchers to use a smartphone or web app to remotely monitor and control where and when cattle graze (吃草). Virtual fences can reduce the need for physical fences, which require significant time, expense and labor to maintain. Physical fences also limit land managers in their ability to change grazing boundaries to adapt to seasonal changes in vegetation or to exclude cattle from ecologically sensitive areas. (虚拟围栏被美国农业部誉为一项气候适应战略，它是一项创新技术，使牧场主能够使用智能手机或网络应用程序远程监控和控制牛在何时何地吃草。虚拟围栏可以减少对物理围栏的需求，物理围栏需要大量的时间、费用和人力来维护。物理围栏也限制了土地管理者改变放牧边界以适应植被的季节性变化或将牛排除在生态敏感地区的能力。)”可知，第2段强调了虚拟围栏的主要优势。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“If the cow proceeds to cross the boundary, it receives a momentary mild shock, signaling that it’s gone too far and should rejoin its group. (如果母牛继续越过边界，它会受到短暂的轻微电击，这表明它走得太远了，应该重新加入它的群体。)”可知，轻微的电击对奶牛意味着是时候回来了。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中“For ecological health, most grassland ecosystems need periods of disturbance to aerate (使透气) the soil, stimulate plant growth and recycle nutrients into the soil. Ranchers complete this disturbance-rest cycle by managing the timing, location, herd size and intensity of grazing activities, all of which can be time-consuming and painstaking. (为了生态健康，大多数草地生态系统需要扰动期来给土壤通风，刺激植物生长，并将养分循环到土壤中。牧场主通过管理放牧活动的时间、地点、牧群规模和强度来完成这种干扰-休息循环，所有这些都是费时费力的。)”可知，牧场主完成扰动休息周期不可避免的是付出巨大努力，包括管理放牧的时间、地点、畜群大小和强度，这些都是费时费力的工作。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段““Currently, the costs of virtual fencing are still high, but in the long run it can help land managers better carry out management practices that regenerate land health, help address climate change and biodiversity loss,” said William Burnidge, director of the Nature Conservancy. (“目前，虚拟围栏的成本仍然很高，但从长远来看，它可以帮助土地管理者更好地实施管理措施，使土地恢复健康，帮助应对气候变化和生物多样性丧失，”大自然保护协会主任威廉·伯尼奇说。)”可知，威廉·伯尼奇在评估其利弊时持有一个平衡的看法，对于虚拟围栏的态度是客观的。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。 As the world’s population increases, so does the need for food, especially from animal sources.

It was a dark, damp tunnel (隧道) made of smooth branches. This year she had the extra joy of showing it to her small brother, Stephen, and terrifying him as well as herself. One day they found a hole on one side of the walk. Inside there was water, in which they perceived a panting trout (喘息的鳟鱼). They were both so excited that they were no longer afraid of the darkness as they bent down and peered at the fish panting in his tiny prison, his silver stomach going up and down like an engine; otherwise he was motionless. Julia wondered what he ate and thought of his hunger. She found him a worm. He ignored the food, and just went on panting. Bending over him, she thought how he had been in there. All the winter, in the dark tunnel, all day, all night, floating around alone. Nobody knew how the fish got there. Her mother suggested that a bird had carried the egg. Her father thought that in the winter a small stream might have carried it down there as a baby, and it has been safe until summer came and the water began to dry up. Before they went to bed, Stephen asked his mummy the whole story of the trout, not really interested in the actual trout, but in the story which his mum began to make up for him, and Julia, in her bed, presented her back to them and read her book. But she kept one ear cocked. “And so, in the end, this naughty fish got bigger and bigger, and the water got smaller and smaller...” Passionately, she turned around and cried, “Mummy, don’t make it a horrible old moral story. Her mom even brought in a fairy (仙子), who had made it rain and filled the hole, so that the trout could float away down to the river below. Staring at the moon she knew there was no such thing as a fairy and that trout, down in the tunnel, was panting for his life. 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。 She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 She sat up in the silent night and Stephan was sound asleep. She tiptoed out, quietly lifted a large pot of water and ran to the opening of the tunnel. Inside was complete darkness!
