While husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties. This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also informative. The Starry Night Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas, a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12 months stay at the mental hospital near Saint-Remy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890. When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh’s most famous works. The Harvesters The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It describes the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp, commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919. Guernica Guernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title “Guernica” refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war. Today, the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid. 1. Which of the following paintings was produced earliest? A. The Harvesters. B. The Starry Night. C. Guernica. D. The Amolfini Portrait. 2. Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons? A. Jan van Eyck. B. Vincent van Gogh. C. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. D. Pablo Picasso. 3. What do we know about the painting The Starry Night? A. It was painted on wood in oils. B. It wasn’t widely recognized before 1941. C. It was given away to the museum by a collector. D. It described the painter’s life in hospital. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四幅经受住了时间考验的著名画作。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Amolfini Portrait部分“Jan van Eyck’s Amolfini Portrait, an oil painting on wood produced in 1434(Jan van Eyck的《阿尔诺芬尼夫妇像》，一幅创作于1434年的木板油画)”；The Starry Night部分“Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas, a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12 months stay at the mental hospital near Saint-Remy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890.(文森特・梵高在1889年至1890年期间，于法国圣雷米德普罗旺斯附近的精神病院里待了12个月，在此期间，他创作了《星夜》这幅布面油画。这是一幅适度抽象的风景画，描绘了一个小山坡村庄上方富有表现力的夜空。)”；The Harvesters部分“The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.(《收割者》是一幅由老彼得・勃鲁盖尔于1565年完成的木板油画)”；Guernica部分“Guernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937.(《格尔尼卡》，一幅大型黑白油画，是由立体派西班牙画家巴勃罗・毕加索于1937年创作的。)”，对比创作时间可知，《阿尔诺芬尼夫妇像》创作时间最早。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Harvesters部分“The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It describes the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September.(《收割者》是一幅由老彼得・勃鲁盖尔于 1565 年完成的木板油画。它描绘了最常出现在八月和九月的收获时节。)”可知，是老彼得・勃鲁盖尔（Pieter Bruegel the Elder）创作了这幅描绘收获季节的画作。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Starry Night部分中描述“When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh’s most famous works.(1941年，当纽约现代艺术博物馆从一位私人收藏家手中购买这幅画时，它并不出名，但后来却成了梵高最著名的作品之一。)”可知，The Starry Night在1941年之前并未被广泛认可。故选B。 B Most parents do not enjoy watching their children act out. Bad behavior by children often results from bad behavior by parents. The first idea that has to go is that poor parenting is what makes children misbehave. The cause of the child’s behavior may lie in the biology of the child. The most important issue is how the parent treats the behavior of the child. Aggressive (侵略性的) behavior starts early in children’s lives. A study looked at children 6 to 24 months of age. Mothers reported how often their children acted out. They listed kicking, hitting, pulling hair, biting and even hurting animals. The most common actions were hitting or slapping another person. The least common action was hurting animals. A good many toddlers (学步儿童) began to hit more as they get older. The 24-month-olds were hitting about four to six days a week. Experts can assure parents that these behaviors are normal in small children. The big job is to guide parents. From the start, parents should set limits. They need to respond in ways that may help redirect a child or take his or her attention away. They are better than punishing the child with anger, yelling or beating. Almost all children will misbehave once in a while. The more aggressive toddlers will need more help. Parents often use their instincts (直觉) to deal with their children. They may respond with anger, threats, and punishment. The better way is to plan to avoid potential battles. If getting ready for school is a problem, come up with ways to make it easier. Ask the child what he or she needs. You should ignore small bad behavior such as complaining or disrespect. Pick your battles. Do not start with punishments such as ‘no play dates, no TV, no screen time.’ These punishments do not result in better behavior, It is also important to make sure you reward good behavior. 4. What is the key to kids’ bad behavior? A. Parents’ attitude towards it. B. Parents’ way of thinking. C. Parents’ way of dealing with it. D. Parents’ way of recognition. 5. What do experts think of bad behavior in small children? A. It is natural. B. It is abnormal. C. It is dangerous. D. It can be avoided. 6. What should parents do with their kids’ aggressive behavior? A. Punish their kids severely. B. Prevent possible battles. C. Be ignorant of their kids. D. Respond with threats. 7. Who is the text intended for? A. Teachers. B. Writers. C. Students. D. Parents. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在小孩子身上的一些不良行为是正常的，最重要的是引导父母正确对待孩子身上的不良行为。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The most important issue is how the parent treats the behavior of the child.(最重要的问题是父母如何对待孩子的行为)”可知，孩子不良行为的关键是父母的处理。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Experts can assure parents that these behaviors are normal in small children.(专家可以向父母保证，这些行为在小孩子身上是正常的)”可知，专家认为小孩的不良行为是正常的。根据故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The better way is to plan to avoid potential battles.(更好的方法是计划避免潜在的战争)”可知，对待孩子的攻击性行为父母应该防止可能的战争。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The most important issue is how the parent treats the behavior of the child.(最重要的问题是父母如何对待孩子的行为)”和第三段的“Experts can assure parents that these behaviors are normal in small children. The big job is to guide parents. From the start, parents should set limits. They need to respond in ways that may help redirect a child or take his or her attention away. They are better than punishing the child with anger, yelling or beating. (专家可以向父母保证，这些行为在小孩子身上是正常的。重要的工作是引导父母。从一开始，父母就应该设限。他们需要以帮助引导孩子或转移他或她的注意力的方式做出回应。这比用愤怒、喊叫或殴打来惩罚孩子要好)”可知，这篇文章主要是写给父母看的。故选D。 C Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English, but is running free and developing uniquely local forms. Can you figure out the following terms? “I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face.” This is a way of saying “Keep off the grass.” Or “people mountain, people sea”, which means “very crowded”. These examples are what we call Chinglish. When it comes to Chinglish, if all you know is “good good study, day day up”, you will be considered “out man”. Nowadays, more Chinglish words have been created, for example, a Chinese idiom is translated as “smilence”, a combination by the English word smile and silence. Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs products, and advertising. They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors. Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years. “I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English. But you know, sometimes for us foreigners, it’s actually quite charming to see them. I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect, then something would be lost from Chinese culture.” However,Chinglish will probably become a “cultural relic” in the near future. Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years. “It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots. And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries,” a Beijinger said. Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish. They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth, and now it’s Chinese’s turn. 8. What can we call Chinglish? A. English words which get new Chinese meanings. B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate. C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well. 9. What does “smilence” most probably mean? A. Saying nothing but to smile. B. Smiling without being noticed. C. Laughing at somebody. D. Knowing little about speech. 10. What is Swire’s attitude to Chinglish? A. It can show the humour of Chinese. B. It will attract more foreign tourists. C. It helps him to learn Chinese well. D. It seems part of Chinese culture. 11. Why Chinglish is likely to become a “cultural relic” in Beijing? A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English. B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English. C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners. D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。如今, 世界英语不单单受美式英语和英式英语的影响, 英语词汇和汉语语法的结合还导致了越来越多的“中国式英语”的出现。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Nowadays, more Chinglish words have been created, for example, a Chinese idiom is translated as ‘smilence’, a combination by the English word smile and silence.(如今，越来越多的中式英语被创造出来，例如，一个汉语成语被翻译成‘smilence’，由英语单词smile和silence组合而成)” 可知，更多的中式英语词汇被创造出来，例如，一个汉语成语被翻译成“smilence”，由英语单词微笑和沉默组合而成。这里“笑而不语”是把英语词汇按照汉语语法表达出来，故选C项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段结尾“a combination by the English word smile and silence”可知，根据中文意思把“微笑”和“沉默”结合，即表示“笑而不语”。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中Swire说话的内容“I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English. But you know, sometimes for us foreigners, it’s actually quite charming to see them. I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect, then something would be lost from Chinese culture.(我想很多中国人都在抱怨中式英语和翻译糟糕的英语。但是你知道，有时候对我们外国人来说，看到它们真的很迷人。我认为，如果中国的英语翻译都是完美的，那么中国文化就会失去一些东西)”可知，他认为中国式英语是中国文化的一部分。故选D项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years.(北京已经制定了全面计划，在五年内改善外语服务和纠正中国式英语)”可知，北京已经制定了一项全面计划，在五年内提高外语服务和纠正中式英语。所以中式英语可能将不存在了，故选D项。 D New research has highlighted the deep link between dietary choices and brain health. Published in Nature, the research showed that a healthy, balanced diet was linked to superior brain health, cognitive function and mental well-being. The study, involving researchers at the University of Warwick, sheds light on how our food preferences not only influence physical health but also significantly impact brain health. The dietary choices of a large sample of 181,990 participants from the UK Biobank were analyzed and a range of physical evaluation including cognitive functions, blood metabolic biomarkers, brain imaging, and genetics unveil new insights into the relationship between nutrition and overall well-being. A balanced diet was associated with better mental health, superior cognitive functions and even higher amounts of grey matter in the brain — linked to intelligence — compared with those with a less varied diet. The study also highlights the need for gradual changes in eating habits especially for people who are used to tasty but nutrient-poor foods. By slowly reducing sugar and fat intake over time, people may find themselves naturally tend to make healthier food choices. Genetic factors may also contribute to the association between diet and brain health, the scientists believe, showing how a combination of genetic predispositions (倾向) and lifestyle choices shapes well-being. Lead author Professor Jianfeng Feng, University of Warwick, emphasized the importance of establishing healthy food preferences early in life. He said, “Developing a healthy balanced diet from an early age is crucial for healthy growth. To foster the development of a healthy balanced diet, both families and schools should offer a diverse range of nutritious meals and cultivate an environment that supports their physical and mental health.” Co-author Wei Cheng, Fudan University, added, “Our findings underline the associations between dietary patterns and brain health, urging common efforts in promoting nutritional awareness and fostering healthier eating habits across diverse populations.” 12. What did the research done at the University of Warwick centre on? A. The link between exercise and brain health. B. The association between diet and brain health. C. The impact of well-being on cognitive functions. D. The effects of a balanced diet on mental well-being. 13. How did researchers draw their conclusion? A. By analyzing data. B. By conducting surveys. C. By doing experiments. D. By observing participants. 14. Which of the following is influenced by the amount of grey matter in the brain? A. A person’s age. B. A person’s weight. C. A person’s height. D. A person’s cognition. 15. What may the two authors, Jianfeng Feng and Wei Cheng, suggest? A. Getting regular brain health checks. B. Improving the nutrition in every meal. C. Forming healthy eating habits early. D. Promoting health awareness in school. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章的一项研究表明，饮食选择与大脑健康之间有深刻联系，健康均衡的饮食与卓越的大脑健康、认知功能和心理健康有关，强调尽早养成健康的饮食习惯的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由第一段中“The study, involving researchers at the University of Warwick, sheds light on how our food preferences not only influence physical health but also significantly impact brain health. (这项由华威大学研究人员参与的研究揭示了我们的食物偏好如何不仅影响身体健康，而且显著影响大脑健康)”可知，华威大学的研究主要集中在饮食与大脑健康之间的关系。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“The dietary choices of a large sample of 181,990 participants from the UK Biobank were analyzed and a range of physical evaluation including cognitive functions, blood metabolic biomarkers, brain imaging, and genetics unveil new insights into the relationship between nutrition and overall well-being. (对来自英国生物库的181,990名参与者的大样本饮食选择进行了分析，包括认知功能、血液代谢生物标志物、脑成像和遗传学在内的一系列身体评估揭示了营养与整体健康之间关系的新见解)”可知，研究人员对来自英国生物库的181,990名参与者的大样本饮食选择进行了分析，即通过分析数据得出结论的。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段“A balanced diet was associated with better mental health, superior cognitive functions and even higher amounts of grey matter in the brain — linked to intelligence — compared with those with a less varied diet. (与饮食不太多样化的人相比，均衡的饮食与更好的心理健康、更优的认知功能，甚至与智力相关的大脑灰质含量更高有关)”可知，智力高低与大脑灰质含量多少有关，“一个人的认知”属于大脑智力范畴，会受到大脑灰质数量的影响。故选D项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中“Lead author Professor Jianfeng Feng, University of Warwick, emphasized the importance of establishing healthy food preferences early in life. He said, “Developing a healthy balanced diet from an early age is crucial for healthy growth. (主要作者、华威大学冯剑峰教授强调了在生命早期建立健康饮食偏好的重要性。他说：“从小养成健康均衡的饮食习惯对健康成长至关重要)”和最后一段中Wei Cheng说的话“Our findings underline the associations between dietary patterns and brain health, urging common efforts in promoting nutritional awareness and fostering healthier eating habits across diverse populations. (我们的研究结果强调了饮食模式与大脑健康之间的关联，敦促在不同人群中共同努力提高营养意识，培养更健康的饮食习惯)”可知，Jianfeng Feng和Wei Cheng建议人们尽早养成健康的饮食习惯。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） What to do in a fire Talking about fires can frightening because no one likes to think about people getting hurt or their things getting burned. ____16____ So let’s start from talking about escape plans and escape routes. ●____17____ An escape plan can help you get out of a burning house.

If you don’t see smoke—and the door is not bot—then use cracks around the door. If your fingers to lightly touch the door handle. If the door handle is hot or very warn—don’t open the door! If the door handle feels cool, and you can’t see any smoke around the door, you can open the door very carefully. When you open the door, if you feel heat or smoke pours into the room, quickly shut the door. ___20___ A. Get everyone out. B. Know your way out. C. If you don’t see smoke—touch the door. D. How do you get to them from your room? E. But what if there was a fire where you live? F. But you can feel less worried if you are prepared. G. If there’s no smoke or heat, go toward your escape route exit. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. D 19. C 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了火灾逃生的几个步骤。 【16题详解】 由空格前的“Talking about fires can frightening（谈论火灾会让人害怕）”和空格后的“So let’s start from talking about escape plans and escape routes.（让我们从逃跑计划和逃跑路线开始。）”可知，本空与上一句构成转折关系，同时，又给出下一句的理由，F选项“But you can feel less worried if you are prepared.（但是如果你准备好了，你就不会那么担心了。）”中的But表转折，且引出下文的讲逃跑计划和逃跑路线，因此F选项承上启下，符合语境，故选F。 【17题详解】 空格处是本段小标题，由“so it’s important to learn and remember the different ways out of your home（所以学习并记住离开家的不同方法是很重要的。）”可知，本段主要在讲“确认逃生出口”，故选Know your way out作小标题。故选B。 【18题详解】 D项“How do you get to them from your room?（你怎么从房间到达门？）”中的them指代上一句中的“exits”，且D项承接上一句“How many exits (出口) are there?”（有多少门），进一步提醒读者弄清从家到逃生出口的路线，符合文意和实际。故选D。 【19题详解】 根据上文“If you see smoke coming under the door—don’t open the door! ”（如果你看到有烟从门下冒出来——不要开门!），C项“If you don’t see smoke—touch the door.（如果你没看到烟，就摸门。）”中的“smoke”和前面的“smoke”相一致，是此处所列的逃生步骤中的一环。因此C选项承上启下，符合语境，故选C。 【20题详解】 由文章结构可知，上句“ When you open the door, if you feel heat or smoke pours into the room, quickly shut the door. ”（当你打开门，如果你感到热或烟涌入房间，迅速关闭的门。）提到有烟和热气涌入时该怎么做，那么下句应是无烟和热气时该怎么做，故选G项“If there’s no smoke or heat, go toward your escape route exit.（如果没有烟或热，就往逃生通道出口走。）”。故选G。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At 20 years old, I was a confident and handsome student at the University of California at Berkley.

Every year, the gym turned into a magical space: third graders’ “talking” plants in pots, sixth graders’ robot fish feeders, and eighth graders’ erupting volcano models that always amazed everyone. This time, I couldn’t stop staring at the shiny medal, as if it belonged to me already. With two weeks left, I felt nervous. My notebook was still empty. “What if you build a rocket?” Mom suggested at breakfast, waving her spoon. The idea lit up my mind — a smooth silver rocket with bright blue flames shooting upward. Nothing could be cooler! We rushed to the store that afternoon. Cardboard turned into rocket parts, and glitter (小发光物) became my space magic. At the kitchen table, I worked like a scientist: pizza box wings, tin foil (锡纸) tips shining like ice. When Dad asked how it would fly, I shook my jar of glitter: “This is the special fuel!” On the morning of the fair, my glittering rocket stood by the door. In the gym, Mary’s plants grew in real dirt, and Tom’s robot arm picked up candies. I placed my rocket under the sunlight, rainbow colors dancing on its surface. As the judges walked closer, I stood tall, waiting for their amazed faces. 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。 One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the awards were announced, my name wasn’t called. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” My throat tightened. The glitter fuel jar felt suddenly heavy in my palm. “Well…the glitter creates driving force when it sparkles,” I stammered, watching the judge’s smile fade into polite confusion. Beside me, Tom demonstrated his robotic arm’s precise candy-sorting calculation using real coding terms. My cardboard wings bent under the gym’s colorful lights as I finally understood — while I’d been crafting decorations, others had been studying actual science. When the awards were announced, my name wasn’t called. Mary got third place for her plant experiment. Tom won second with his robot arm. The gold medal went to an eighth grader who made a water cleaner using real science. I clapped but felt my face turn hot. My rocket’s glitter looked childish now. Mom hugged me and said, “Real scientists fail many times before they succeed.” Dad pointed to the gold medal winner — she had made a volcano the year before but worked harder this time. Walking home, I held my rocket tightly. That night, I started drawing new plans for next year’s science fair. The medal still mattered, but I wanted to earn it properly — with real experiments, not just glitter. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者参加学校科学展为线索，讲述了作者决心赢得金牌，在母亲建议下制作出外观华丽的火箭模型，然而在科学展上因缺乏科学原理支撑遭遇评审质疑，最终未能获奖，从而领悟到科学探究需注重实质的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一位评委轻声问道：‘你能解释一下你的火箭是如何工作的吗？’”可知，第一段可描写作者面对评委提问时的紧张与慌乱，结结巴巴地解释“闪光燃料”原理，同时对比其他同学展示的专业成果，意识到自己作品的不足。 ②由第二段首句内容“当奖项公布时，没有叫到我的名字。”可知，第二段可描写作者看着他人获奖时的失落，父母给予鼓励，作者在他们的引导下明白真正的科学需要努力与实践，从而决定来年认真准备。 2. 续写线索：评委提问——紧张解释——发现不足——未获奖项——父母鼓励——领悟道理——重新规划 3. 词汇激活 行为类： ①结巴：stammered/stutter ②拥抱：hugged /give sb. a hug/embrace ③紧紧抓住：held/grab/seize/catch tightly 情绪类： ①紧张：My throat tightened/I was nervous/tense ②困惑：confusion/at a loss 【点睛】[高分句型 1] “Well…the glitter creates driving force when it sparkles,” I stammered, watching the judge’s smile fade into polite confusion.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型 2] The gold medal went to an eighth grader who made a water cleaner using real science.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 庐江县2024/2025学年度第二学期期末教学质量检测 高二英语试题 （试卷满分150分，考试时间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.

The Amolfini Portrait Jan van Eyck’s Amolfini Portrait, an oil painting on wood produced in 1434, in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her, is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the Nation document on fifteenth-century society, through Van Eyck’s heavy use of symbolism. While husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties. This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also informative. The Starry Night Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas, a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12 months stay at the mental hospital near Saint-Remy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890. When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh’s most famous works. The Harvesters The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It describes the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp, commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919. Guernica Guernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title “Guernica” refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war. Today, the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid. 1. Which of the following paintings was produced earliest? A. The Harvesters. B. The Starry Night. C. Guernica. D. The Amolfini Portrait. 2 Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons? A. Jan van Eyck. B. Vincent van Gogh. C. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. D. Pablo Picasso. 3. What do we know about the painting The Starry Night? A. It was painted on wood in oils. B. It wasn’t widely recognized before 1941. C It was given away to the museum by a collector. D. It described the painter’s life in hospital. B Most parents do not enjoy watching their children act out. Bad behavior by children often results from bad behavior by parents. The first idea that has to go is that poor parenting is what makes children misbehave. The cause of the child’s behavior may lie in the biology of the child. The most important issue is how the parent treats the behavior of the child. Aggressive (侵略性的) behavior starts early in children’s lives. A study looked at children 6 to 24 months of age. Mothers reported how often their children acted out. They listed kicking, hitting, pulling hair, biting and even hurting animals. The most common actions were hitting or slapping another person. The least common action was hurting animals. A good many toddlers (学步儿童) began to hit more as they get older. The 24-month-olds were hitting about four to six days a week. Experts can assure parents that these behaviors are normal in small children. The big job is to guide parents. From the start, parents should set limits. They need to respond in ways that may help redirect a child or take his or her attention away. They are better than punishing the child with anger, yelling or beating. Almost all children will misbehave once in a while. The more aggressive toddlers will need more help. Parents often use their instincts (直觉) to deal with their children. They may respond with anger, threats, and punishment. The better way is to plan to avoid potential battles. If getting ready for school is a problem, come up with ways to make it easier. Ask the child what he or she needs. You should ignore small bad behavior such as complaining or disrespect. Pick your battles. Do not start with punishments such as ‘no play dates, no TV, no screen time.’ These punishments do not result in better behavior, It is also important to make sure you reward good behavior. 4. What is the key to kids’ bad behavior? A. Parents’ attitude towards it. B. Parents’ way of thinking. C. Parents’ way of dealing with it. D. Parents’ way of recognition. 5. What do experts think of bad behavior in small children? A. It is natural. B. It is abnormal. C. It is dangerous. D. It can be avoided. 6. What should parents do with their kids’ aggressive behavior? A. Punish their kids severely. B. Prevent possible battles. C. Be ignorant of their kids. D. Respond with threats. 7. Who is the text intended for? A. Teachers. B. Writers. C. Students. D. Parents. C Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English, but is running free and developing uniquely local forms. Can you figure out the following terms? “I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face.” This is a way of saying “Keep off the grass.” Or “people mountain, people sea”, which means “very crowded”. These examples are what we call Chinglish. When it comes to Chinglish, if all you know is “good good study, day day up”, you will be considered “out man”. Nowadays, more Chinglish words have been created, for example, a Chinese idiom is translated as “smilence”, a combination by the English word smile and silence. Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs, products, and advertising. They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors. Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years. “I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English. But you know, sometimes for us foreigners, it’s actually quite charming to see them. I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect, then something would be lost from Chinese culture.” However,Chinglish will probably become a “cultural relic” in the near future. Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years. “It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots. And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries,” a Beijinger said. Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish. They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth, and now it’s Chinese’s turn. 8. What can we call Chinglish? A. English words which get new Chinese meanings. B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate. C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well. 9. What does “smilence” most probably mean? A. Saying nothing but to smile. B. Smiling without being noticed. C. Laughing at somebody. D. Knowing little about speech. 10. What is Swire’s attitude to Chinglish? A. It can show the humour of Chinese. B. It will attract more foreign tourists. C. It helps him to learn Chinese well. D. It seems part of Chinese culture. 11. Why Chinglish is likely to become a “cultural relic” in Beijing? A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English. B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English. C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners. D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs. D New research has highlighted the deep link between dietary choices and brain health. Published in Nature, the research showed that a healthy, balanced diet was linked to superior brain health, cognitive function and mental well-being. The study, involving researchers at the University of Warwick, sheds light on how our food preferences not only influence physical health but also significantly impact brain health. The dietary choices of a large sample of 181,990 participants from the UK Biobank were analyzed and a range of physical evaluation including cognitive functions, blood metabolic biomarkers, brain imaging, and genetics unveil new insights into the relationship between nutrition and overall well-being. A balanced diet was associated with better mental health, superior cognitive functions and even higher amounts of grey matter in the brain — linked to intelligence — compared with those with a less varied diet. The study also highlights the need for gradual changes in eating habits, especially for people who are used to tasty but nutrient-poor foods. By slowly reducing sugar and fat intake over time, people may find themselves naturally tend to make healthier food choices. Genetic factors may also contribute to the association between diet and brain health, the scientists believe, showing how a combination of genetic predispositions (倾向) and lifestyle choices shapes well-being. Lead author Professor Jianfeng Feng, University of Warwick, emphasized the importance of establishing healthy food preferences early in life. He said, “Developing a healthy balanced diet from an early age is crucial for healthy growth. To foster the development of a healthy balanced diet, both families and schools should offer a diverse range of nutritious meals and cultivate an environment that supports their physical and mental health.” Co-author Wei Cheng, Fudan University, added, “Our findings underline the associations between dietary patterns and brain health, urging common efforts in promoting nutritional awareness and fostering healthier eating habits across diverse populations.” 12. What did the research done at the University of Warwick centre on? A. The link between exercise and brain health. B. The association between diet and brain health. C. The impact of well-being on cognitive functions. D. The effects of a balanced diet on mental well-being. 13 How did researchers draw their conclusion? A. By analyzing data. B. By conducting surveys. C. By doing experiments. D. By observing participants. 14. Which of the following is influenced by the amount of grey matter in the brain? A. A person’s age. B. A person’s weight. C. A person’s height. D. A person’s cognition. 15. What may the two authors, Jianfeng Feng and Wei Cheng, suggest? A. Getting regular brain health checks. B. Improving the nutrition in every meal. C.

Every year, the gym turned into a magical space: third graders’ “talking” plants in pots, sixth graders’ robot fish feeders, and eighth graders’ erupting volcano models that always amazed everyone. This time, I couldn’t stop staring at the shiny medal, as if it belonged to me already. With two weeks left, I felt nervous. My notebook was still empty. “What if you build a rocket?” Mom suggested at breakfast, waving her spoon. The idea lit up my mind — a smooth silver rocket with bright blue flames shooting upward. Nothing could be cooler! We rushed to the store that afternoon. Cardboard turned into rocket parts, and glitter (小发光物) became my space magic. At the kitchen table, I worked like a scientist: pizza box wings, tin foil (锡纸) tips shining like ice. When Dad asked how it would fly, I shook my jar of glitter: “This is the special fuel!” On the morning of the fair, my glittering rocket stood by the door. In the gym, Mary’s plants grew in real dirt, and Tom’s robot arm picked up candies. I placed my rocket under the sunlight, rainbow colors dancing on its surface. As the judges walked closer, I stood tall, waiting for their amazed faces. 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。 One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the awards were announced, my name wasn’t called. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
