Easy to care for and full of charm, these houseplants bring both beauty and wellness into our home. Peace Lily The name “peace lily” definitely evokes a sense of calm, but sensitive to drought and excessive heat. Peace lilies can live for years and continuously produce broad white flowers that resemble a peace flag. They’re easy to take care of and don’t need much light. Just keep them out of reach from pets and small children. Rubber Plants Rubber plants, also called rubber trees, make for great indoor houseplants. They’re generally easy to take care of and only need to be watered every week or so. They must be kept away from any pets and young children, as they’re known to be highly toxic when swallowed. Elephant Ear Plants If you want to spend a little more time with your houseplants, try elephant ear plants. Elephant ear plants are instantly recognizable by their big, heart-shaped leaves. One thing to watch out for: the leaves of this plant contain harmful elements that, when eaten, can cause symptoms such as blisters in the mouth, nausea and vomiting, and severe swelling of the tongue, mouth and eyes. Snake Plants Also known as mother-in-law’s tongues, the snake plant is known for having tall leaves that grow vertically. But there are many varieties of snake plants. Some have striking yellow accents; other types are long and curvy; and still others are cute and spiky. The plants should only be watered when the soil is dry. Keep them out of reach of pets, as they’re considered toxic to cats and dogs. 1. Which is the best option for those enjoying flowering plants? A. Peace Lily. B. Snake Plant. C. Elephant Ear Plants. D. Rubber Plants. 2. What is a feature of snake plants according to the text? A. They are easy to take care of. B. They need watering every day. C. They have different kinds of types. D. They are poisonous for young children. 3. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A diary. B. A magazine. C. A novel. D. An advertisement. B Shreya Vemulapalli, a junior at The Harker School, founded nonprofit Cancel. Cancer. Culture. (CCC) in 2023 to help reveal hidden stories on cancer and encourage open conversations. Vemulapalli made up her mind to challenge how cancer is viewed after she lost her father to cancer. While many people hear about cancer survivor stories, the reality for many people like her father, is that not everyone beats cancer. Vemulapalli thought that the stories of people who lost their lives to cancer deserve to be shared and can comfort others going through the same experience. Having a community aids the journey through cancer. A central focus of CCC is to cultivate this community and make it accessible for those experiencing cancer. The experience leaves cancer patients emotionally separated from their loved ones. Through CCC, Vemulapalli has received messages from those who have faced cancer, further stressing the widespread need for connection. Reflecting on her own experience, Vemulapalli recalled how she kept her story private, in fear that it made her different. However, she said she now recognizes the importance in sharing her experience and encourages others to do the same. Looking ahead, Vemulapalli is set to release an anthology (选集), which will feature stories from cancer patients and survivors, offering diverse perspectives on the disease. CCC plans to host and attend fundraising events to continue building its community and connect more people. Though CCC isn’t for everyone, Vemulapalli’s mission is meant to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds. She works to demonstrate how one can overcome instead of being overcome in the face of grief and pain. 4. What motivated Vemulapalli to start CCC? A. Her interest in medical research. B. A fundraising event she attended. C. The death of her father from cancer D. Her school project on cancer awareness. 5. How does the community benefit cancer patients? A. It helps them with medical advice. B. It entertains them with a pleasant travel. C. It offers them a platform to share and connect. D. It encourages them to find a cure for the disease 6. What is Vemulapalli’s plan for the future? A. She will raise money for cancer survivors. B. She hopes to expand the impact of CCC. C. She will overcome all grief and pain. D. She aims to be a famous writer. 7. Which words can best describe Vemulapalli? A. Traditional and cautious. B. Curious and competitive. C. Independent and modest. D. Determined and inspiring. C Researchers have known for many years that there was more to ancient Greek and Roman statues than the plain white marble (大理石) you typically see in museums. Now, a researcher says there’s another aspect to these statues to consider: how they smelled. Ancient Greek and Roman sculptures were not just experienced visually. Cecilie Brons, a senior researcher of the Glyptoteket museum’s collection of ancient Greek and Roman art in Copenhagen, Denmark, says ancient texts provide evidence that statues were often scented with perfumes (香料), oils and waxes. “These scents (香味) could help promote the interaction between the image and the observer, without the use of touch,” Brens writes in her article. A variety of flowers and herbs were used to make the perfumes, but evidence points to rose perfume being the most widely used type. Some old records show that people used nice-smelling oils on statues. On a Greek island called Delos, many stones with writing were found, and some of them list items like oils and perfumes. It’s hard to find physical evidence of scents on statues, as the oils and waxes degrade over time. One exception is a statue of the Ptolemaic Queen Berenice II from the third century B.C. Brons said previous research did not detect a scent, but did detect evidence of beeswax spread on the statue. Verity Platt, a professor at Cornell University’s Department of Classics who specializes in Greek and Roman art history and was not involved in the study, said that among experts in classical studies, the idea that statues were scented is already well-established. But given the attention the study has received, it’s clear many people hadn’t heard about the practice before. 8. Why were scents used in ancient sculptures according to Brons? A. To show the artist’s high social status. B. To stop viewers from touching the images. C To remove unpleasant smells from white marble. D. To bridge the artwork and the visitors without touch. 9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The types of flowers and herbs. B. The evidence of scenting statues. C. The process of making perfumes. D. The discovery of statues on Delos. 10. What does the underlined word “degrade” probably mean? A. Break down. B. Show up. C. Burn down. D. Mix up. 11. What does Verity Platt’s comment on the study suggest? A. It receives little attention. B. It is criticized by other professors. C. It is the first to analyze scents on statues. D. It has made the practice more widely known. D As climate change leads to more frequent and extreme weather events, water experts from around the world are urging greater use of digital technology to improve the management of dams and reservoirs (水库). At a recent international conference held during the 28th International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) Congress in Chengdu, China, experts emphasized the importance of modernizing dam systems to face new global challenges. Michel Lino, president of ICOLD, mentioned the critical role of dams in dealing with global challenges. “We are facing common challenges,” he stressed. “Whether it is climate change, aging infrastructure, water shortage, environmental pressure or extreme weather events, they are not limited to one country or one region. These problems go beyond borders and call for collective solutions,” he emphasized. Lino also warned that the engineering standards of traditional dam design and construction are now being tested by emerging risks, including more intense floods driven by climate change. China’s Vice Minister of Water Resources, Wang Baoen, also noted the vital role of dams in managing floods, providing water, and supporting ecosystems. “But in the face of increasingly extreme weather events, the growing impact of human activities and the rapid advancement of socioeconomic development, humanity is faced with significant global challenges in ensuring the high-quality development and safety of reservoirs,” Wang said. To tackle these challenges, China has been using advanced information technology to improve dam monitoring and safety. One of China’s latest innovations is the development of “digital twins” — virtual models that simulate (模拟) the behavior and performance of dams under different conditions. These digital systems help engineers predict problems precisely. They are seen as a cutting-edge solution to improve dam design, operations and risk management. Wang said China is committed to sharing its approaches and experience with the global community. Experts believe that through smarter technology, stronger regulations, and better global coordination, dams can continue to play a major role in addressing climate challenges and securing a sustainable future. 12. What is Michel Lino’s main point in Paragraph 2? A. Global challenges require joint efforts worldwide. B. Traditional dams can no longer deal with new issues. C. Every country is to blame for extreme weather events. D. Dams are primarily responsible for environmental issues. 13. Which challenge is mentioned by both Michel Lino and Wang Baoen? A. Severe environmental pressure. B. Rapid development of economy. C Negative impact of human activities. D. Increasingly extreme weather events. 14. How do digital twins help with dam management? A. By imitating real dam performance. B. By reducing risks of flooding. C. By letting machines handle dam tasks. D. By providing accurate predictions alone. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. International Cooperation for Shared Future B. The Role of Dams to Address Climate Challenges C. Global Call for Smart System in Dam Management D. China’s Leadership in Digital Solutions for Reservoir Safety 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you’re trying to make yourself smarter, you’re not alone! ____16____ Research is still being developed, but basic strategies to make yourself smarter are easy to access.

Before I could relax, my mom reminded me to finish any homework I had. Then she surprised me with exciting news — we were going to the night market! I jumped up and down with happiness. At the night market, colorful lights and cheerful music surrounded us. When mom asked what I wanted to do first, I immediately pointed to a game where kids were throwing balls. As we got closer, I saw rows of fishbowls, each with a small fish swimming inside. My heart beat faster- I really wanted to play this game. I asked the friendly stall (摊位) owner how it worked. He explained that for 2 RMB, I’d get one ball to throw. If it landed in a bowl, I’d win that fish. I turned to mom with hopeful eyes, but she shook her head. “Remember, we can’t have pets,” she said, “pets are a big responsibility.” I begged, promising to take good care of it. The man smiled at mom and said, “Don’t worry ma’am. It’s actually very hard to win.” After some thought, mom agreed I could try once. “If you get it on your first try, you can keep the fish,” she said. I studied the bowls carefully and noticed one with the most beautiful goldfish I’d ever seen. The little fish’s bright orange skin sparkled under the colorful lights. I knew I had to win that one. Taking a deep breath, I aimed carefully and threw the ball. Too nervous to watch, I squeezed my eyes shut. Unexpectedly, I heard the man shout, “We have a winner!” My eyes flew open to see him holding out the bowl with my perfect goldfish. “I’m naming you Moebus!” I announced happily. I burst out laughing at Mom’s astonished expression — her eyes were wide and her mouth formed a little “o” shape. Holding Moebus, I suddenly realized that winning was easy, but keeping a promise to care for him would be harder. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右; (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When we got home, I told Mom not to worry. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To save Moebus, I quickly searched “goldfish care” online for help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024—2025学年高二年级下学期期末考试 英语 (考试时间：120分钟;全卷满分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的班级、姓名、考号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，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。 例：How much is the shirt?

Having a community aids the journey through cancer. A central focus of CCC is to cultivate this community and make it accessible for those experiencing cancer. The experience leaves cancer patients emotionally separated from their loved ones. Through CCC, Vemulapalli has received messages from those who have faced cancer, further stressing the widespread need for connection. Reflecting on her own experience, Vemulapalli recalled how she kept her story private, in fear that it made her different. However, she said she now recognizes the importance in sharing her experience and encourages others to do the same. Looking ahead, Vemulapalli is set to release an anthology (选集), which will feature stories from cancer patients and survivors, offering diverse perspectives on the disease. CCC plans to host and attend fundraising events to continue building its community and connect more people. Though CCC isn’t for everyone, Vemulapalli’s mission is meant to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds. She works to demonstrate how one can overcome instead of being overcome in the face of grief and pain. 4. What motivated Vemulapalli to start CCC? A. Her interest in medical research. B.

Now, a researcher says there’s another aspect to these statues to consider: how they smelled. Ancient Greek and Roman sculptures were not just experienced visually. Cecilie Brons, a senior researcher of the Glyptoteket museum’s collection of ancient Greek and Roman art in Copenhagen, Denmark, says ancient texts provide evidence that statues were often scented with perfumes (香料), oils and waxes. “These scents (香味) could help promote the interaction between the image and the observer, without the use of touch,” Brens writes in her article. A variety of flowers and herbs were used to make the perfumes, but evidence points to rose perfume being the most widely used type. Some old records show that people used nice-smelling oils on statues. On a Greek island called Delos, many stones with writing were found, and some of them list items like oils and perfumes. It’s hard to find physical evidence of scents on statues, as the oils and waxes degrade over time. One exception is a statue of the Ptolemaic Queen Berenice II from the third century B.C. Brons said previous research did not detect a scent, but did detect evidence of beeswax spread on the statue. Verity Platt, a professor at Cornell University’s Department of Classics who specializes in Greek and Roman art history and was not involved in the study, said that among experts in classical studies, the idea that statues were scented is already well-established. But given the attention the study has received, it’s clear many people hadn’t heard about the practice before. 8. Why were scents used in ancient sculptures according to Brons? A. To show the artist’s high social status. B. To stop viewers from touching the images. C. To remove unpleasant smells from white marble. D. To bridge the artwork and the visitors without touch. 9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The types of flowers and herbs. B. The evidence of scenting statues. C. The process of making perfumes. D. The discovery of statues on Delos. 10. What does the underlined word “degrade” probably mean? A. Break down. B. Show up. C. Burn down. D. Mix up. 11. What does Verity Platt’s comment on the study suggest? A. It receives little attention. B. It is criticized by other professors. C. It is the first to analyze scents on statues. D. It has made the practice more widely known. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了古希腊和古罗马雕像曾使用香味增强观者体验，并介绍了相关研究和发现。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中““These scents (香味) could help promote the interaction between the image and the observer, without the use of touch,” Brens writes in her article. (“这些香味无需通过触摸，就能促进雕像与观赏者之间的互动，”布伦斯在她的文章中写道)”可知，使用香味是为了在不接触的情况下建立艺术品与观众的联系。故选D。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“A variety of flowers and herbs were used to make the perfumes, but evidence points to rose perfume being the most widely used type. Some old records show that people used nice-smelling oils on statues. On a Greek island called Delos, many stones with writing were found, and some of them list items like oils and perfumes. (人们使用各种各样的花卉和草本植物来制作香料，但有证据表明玫瑰香水是使用最广泛的一种。一些古老的记载显示，人们会将香气怡人的油脂涂抹在雕像上。在一座名为得洛斯的希腊岛屿上，发现了许多刻有文字的石碑，其中一些还列出了油脂和香料等物品)”可知，本段主要讨论了给雕像加香气的证据；本段提到制作香料的原料、玫瑰香水的广泛使用、相关记录以及及得洛斯岛发现的提及香料的石刻，均为雕像使用香味的证据。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“It’s hard to find physical evidence of scents on statues, as the oils and waxes degrade over time. One exception is a statue of the Ptolemaic Queen Berenice II from the third century B.C. Brons said previous research did not detect a scent, but did detect evidence of beeswax spread on the statue. (在雕像上很难找到香味的实物证据，因为油脂和蜡会随着时间的推移而degrade。一个例外是公元前3世纪托勒密王朝的贝勒尼基二世雕像。布伦斯表示，此前的研究并未检测到香味，但确实发现了雕像上涂抹过蜂蜡的证据)”可推知，油脂和蜡会随着时间的推移而分解，所以很难在雕像上找到香味的物理证据，degrade意为“分解”，A选项“Break down(分解)”符合题意。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Verity Platt, a professor at Cornell University’s Department of Classics who specializes in Greek and Roman art history and was not involved in the study, said that among experts in classical studies, the idea that statues were scented is already well-established. But given the attention the study has received, it’s clear many people hadn’t heard about the practice before.(康奈尔大学古典学系专门研究希腊和罗马艺术史且未参与这项研究的教授薇里蒂·普拉特表示，在古典研究领域的专家中，雕像曾被涂抹香料这一观点早已是公认的事实。但鉴于这项研究受到的关注，显然很多人此前从未听说过这种做法)”可知，薇里蒂·普拉特认为古典研究专家熟知雕像使用香味的做法，但该研究受关注表明很多人此前未知，即研究让这一做法更广为人知。故选D。 D As climate change leads to more frequent and extreme weather events water experts from around the world are urging greater use of digital technology to improve the management of dams and reservoirs (水库). At a recent international conference held during the 28th International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) Congress in Chengdu, China, experts emphasized the importance of modernizing dam systems to face new global challenges. Michel Lino, president of ICOLD, mentioned the critical role of dams in dealing with global challenges. “We are facing common challenges,” he stressed. “Whether it is climate change, aging infrastructure, water shortage, environmental pressure or extreme weather events, they are not limited to one country or one region. These problems go beyond borders and call for collective solutions,” he emphasized. Lino also warned that the engineering standards of traditional dam design and construction are now being tested by emerging risks, including more intense floods driven by climate change. China’s Vice Minister of Water Resources, Wang Baoen, also noted the vital role of dams in managing floods, providing water, and supporting ecosystems. “But in the face of increasingly extreme weather events, the growing impact of human activities and the rapid advancement of socioeconomic development, humanity is faced with significant global challenges in ensuring the high-quality development and safety of reservoirs,” Wang said. To tackle these challenges, China has been using advanced information technology to improve dam monitoring and safety. One of China’s latest innovations is the development of “digital twins” — virtual models that simulate (模拟) the behavior and performance of dams under different conditions. These digital systems help engineers predict problems precisely. They are seen as a cutting-edge solution to improve dam design, operations and risk management. Wang said China is committed to sharing its approaches and experience with the global community. Experts believe that through smarter technology, stronger regulations, and better global coordination, dams can continue to play a major role in addressing climate challenges and securing a sustainable future. 12. What is Michel Lino’s main point in Paragraph 2? A. Global challenges require joint efforts worldwide. B. Traditional dams can no longer deal with new issues. C. Every country is to blame for extreme weather events. D. Dams are primarily responsible for environmental issues. 13. Which challenge is mentioned by both Michel Lino and Wang Baoen? A. Severe environmental pressure. B. Rapid development of economy. C. Negative impact of human activities. D. Increasingly extreme weather events. 14. How do digital twins help with dam management? A. By imitating real dam performance. B. By reducing risks of flooding. C. By letting machines handle dam tasks. D. By providing accurate predictions alone. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. International Cooperation for Shared Future B. The Role of Dams to Address Climate Challenges C. Global Call for Smart System in Dam Management D.

Before I could relax, my mom reminded me to finish any homework I had. Then she surprised me with exciting news — we were going to the night market! I jumped up and down with happiness. At the night market, colorful lights and cheerful music surrounded us. When mom asked what I wanted to do first, I immediately pointed to a game where kids were throwing balls. As we got closer, I saw rows of fishbowls, each with a small fish swimming inside. My heart beat faster- I really wanted to play this game. I asked the friendly stall (摊位) owner how it worked. He explained that for 2 RMB, I’d get one ball to throw. If it landed in a bowl, I’d win that fish. I turned to mom with hopeful eyes, but she shook her head. “Remember, we can’t have pets,” she said, “pets are a big responsibility.” I begged, promising to take good care of it. The man smiled at mom and said, “Don’t worry ma’am. It’s actually very hard to win.” After some thought, mom agreed I could try once. “If you get it on your first try, you can keep the fish,” she said. I studied the bowls carefully and noticed one with the most beautiful goldfish I’d ever seen. The little fish’s bright orange skin sparkled under the colorful lights. I knew I had to win that one. Taking a deep breath, I aimed carefully and threw the ball. Too nervous to watch, I squeezed my eyes shut. Unexpectedly, I heard the man shout, “We have a winner!” My eyes flew open to see him holding out the bowl with my perfect goldfish. “I’m naming you Moebus!” I announced happily. I burst out laughing at Mom’s astonished expression — her eyes were wide and her mouth formed a little “o” shape. Holding Moebus, I suddenly realized that winning was easy, but keeping a promise to care for him would be harder. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右; (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When we got home, I told Mom not to worry. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To save Moebus, I quickly searched “goldfish care” online for help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When we got home, I told Mom not to worry. I promised I would take full responsibility for Moebus. I found a clean and big glass jar, filled it with fresh water, and carefully transferred Moebus into his new home. Every day after school, I would rush to Moebus, feed him on time, and change his water regularly. I even decorated his jar with small stones and colorful shells. Mom gradually saw my dedication and started to believe I could take good care of the little fish. But one day, Moebus suddenly became less active and didn’t eat much either. To save Moebus, I quickly searched “goldfish care” online for help. I learned that goldfish need clean water, proper food, and enough space. I followed the advice strictly. I bought a water-purifying device and high-quality fish food. I also enlarged Moebus’ living space by getting a larger fish tank. With my efforts, Moebus became more and more active. Mom was really impressed by my perseverance. From then on, I understood that winning a prize is just a momentary joy, but fulfilling a promise brings long-lasting satisfaction and growth. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和妈妈去夜市，作者玩投球赢鱼游戏，意外赢得一条金鱼并取名Moebus。回家后作者信守承诺，精心照料它，还上网学习养鱼知识，最终妈妈认可了作者的坚持，作者也明白履行承诺比获奖更有意义。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当我们回到家，我告诉妈妈不要担心。”可知，第一段可描写作者悉心照顾喂养金鱼Moebus的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“为了救Moebus，我迅速在网上搜索“金鱼护理”寻求帮助。”可知，第二段可描写在作者的努力下Moebus变得越来越活跃以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：告诉妈妈不要担心——悉心照顾喂养金鱼Moebus——Moebus突然变得不活跃——在网上搜索金鱼养护信息——做出很多努力——Moebus变得越来越活跃 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①照顾：take good care of/ look after ②购买：bought /purchased ③.扩大：enlarged/ expanded 情绪类 ①.快乐：joy/ delight ②.用心，奉献：dedication / devotion 【点睛】[高分句型1].
