B In my everyday life,I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet.A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment,in particular climate change.It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives.Fortunately,nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than,let's say,20 years ago.But one question has been on my mind a lot lately:is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods? After doing some research,I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used.Let me try to explain. A carbon footprint is made up of two parts,the primary footprint and the secondary footprint.The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2)from the burning of fuels,including household energy consumption and transportation.The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown. Based on this understanding,we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint.Things like dishes,clothes and furniture fall into the "secondary footprint"group,so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production.However,for the car and the other appliances that we need we can go with new,energy-saving models.I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90%of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory.So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models.The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you. 高：（下）期术考英语第4页（共12页） 24.What is the text mainly about? A.How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices. B.What a carbon footprint means in our life. C.How to identify different carbon footprints. D.What appliances to buy to save energy. 25.What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint? A.It is counted as ours though not directly made by us. B.It is made when we are buying the products. C.It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint. D.It is related to our consumption of fuels. 26.Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author? A.Buying new wooden furniture. B.Using old and expensive cars. C.Buying new but cheap clothes. D.Using second-hand textbooks. 27."The footprint"underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in A.transporting the product B.recycling the product C.making the product D.using the product C What is the place of art in a culture of inattention?Recent visitors to the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on.Much of that time,for some of them,is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background. One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we've travelled to see. In this society,experience becomes goods like any other.There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous paintings.Thus,leisure is considered as hard labour rather than relaxation. In the rapidly developing society,what gets lost is the quality of looking. Consider an extreme example,the late philosopher Richard Wollheim.When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting.The first hour,he claimed,was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed.It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today,but it is still possible to organise.Even in the busiest museums there are many rooms and many pictures worth hours of thinking which the crowds largely ignore. 高二（下）期未考英语第5页（共12页） Marcel Proust,another lover of the Louvre,wrote:"It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon."If any art remains worth seeing,it must lead us to such escapes.But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried,harried crowd won't do that. 28.What do we know about recent visitors to the Louvre? A.They are becoming impatient. B.They are inattentive to others. C.They focus wholly on themselves. D.They lack thoughtful engagement with art. 29.Which statement might Richard Wollheim agree with? A.People should ignore their misunderstanding of paintings. B.Modern scciety makes quality viewing impossible. C.True appreciation of art takes time. D.Labor and relaxation go hand in hand. 30.What role does art play in our life according to Marcel Proust? A.Art is of help for us to accept ourselves better. B.Art makes our life more colourful and meaningful. C.Art allows us to know the world in the view of others. D.Art pushes us away from ourselves and explores the moon. 31.What is a suitable title for the text? A.Into art attentively. B.Escape from ourselves. C.Beyond art completely. D.Go to the museums often. D Do I think the sky is falling?Sort of. My husband and I were recently in Egypt,where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny princess self.So,we left Egypt.Back home,my dearest friends struggled with health stuff,with family craziness... The game of life is hard,and a lot of us are playing hurt.I ache for the world but naturally I'm mostly watching the "me"movie,where balance and strength are beginning to fail.What can we do as the creaking(嘎吱作响的) elevator of age slowly arrives?The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends.Old friends-even thoughts of them-are my comfort. Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama.We go back 50 years. She is 84,short and strong.Every so often,she bent down somewhat tentatively(踌躇地)and picked up small items into a small cloth bag.. 高二（下）期宋考英语第6页（共12页） What are you doing??” "I'm picking up micro litter.I try to help where I can." I reminded her of an old story.A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow()lying on its back with its feet in the air,eyes tightly shut with effort.The horse asks it what it's doing. "I'm trying to help hold back the darkness." The horse laughs loudly,"That is so funny.What do you weigh?" And the sparrow replies,"One does what one can." This is what older age means.We do what we can. We continued our walk.Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip,but I caught her and we laughed.We are declining physically in older age,but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul.We can take it,as long as we feel and give love,and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart.We know by a certain age the great lie in our life-if you do or achieve this or that,you will be happy and rich.No.Love and service make us rich. 32.What does the author say about her present life? A.She enjoys meeting old friends. B.She is really into movies. C.She leads a balanced life. D.She struggles with family crises. 33.Why did the author really mention the sparrow? A.To confirm Neshama's fear. B.To offer her comfort. C.To tell Neshama a story. D.To show her approval. 34.What does the underlined"it"in the last paragraph refer to? A.Broken soul. B.Fading strength. C.The rowing machine. D.The great lie. 35.What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author? A.Achieving important life goals. B.Enjoying life as you can. C.Living a life of love and service. D.Loving what is being done. 商二（下）期末考英语第7页（共12页） 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鼓佳选项。选项中 有两项为多余选项。 The search for meaning is a natural part of being human.How often do we stop to think about the meaning of life?36We just distract ourselves with unnecessary sources of satisfaction,like overconsumption,alcohol and drugs,or mindless social media surfing.How to focus more on the larger context of our lives? Grounding yourself in personal values is crucial.When people are firmly rooted in their values,they feel a sense of stability.37Writing about your values and their significance can bring numerous benefits,helping you make healthy lifestyle changes and accept life's choices more easily. 38 Engaging with past memories through old photos,songs,or personal items can remind you of your unchanging self.By reflecting on past experiences,you can strengthen your sense of continuity and authenticity,and therefore enhance your sense of meaning and social connection. You need to seek psychologically rich experiences.39 You can try big things like living abroad for a year.Things that are simple and easy to do also benefit.These experiences present people with complex challenges, and they provide opportunities for learning and discovery,all of which tend to be associated with enhanced feelings of meaning. Relationships are of vital importance in finding meaning.Spending time with loved ones and being part of a community with shared values develop a sense of purpose.You can build these connections through family,friends,or volunteering for a cause you care about.40 If you can shore up any of the foundations of meaning that you lack, you'll likely start to feel that your life is more meaningful. A.They matter and deeply enrich your life. B.What happened previously acts as a tool. C.They feel secure and free of uncertainty. D.Many of us might not have done that much. E.You are better connected with yourself in the past. F.This means seeking experiences that are novel and different. G.This way we contribute to something bigger than just ourselves. 高二（下）期术考英语第8页（共12页） 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分) 第-节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I've been into environment-friendly things for ages,which started when I was 13 and my favorite teen magazine 41 in the mail with a "Save the Earth,Girl!"cover.I remember it clearly.It was filled with all sorts of easy 42 to go green.

"Ships produce about three percent of global Co2 emissions.There are a lot of opportunities 57(stop)ships from pumping CO2.The sea environment is much harsher than on land.We have to consider a lot of factors,like the weather and salt corrosion.So our materials need to be anti-corrosion and we need to develop58(equip)that can be seat-fastened so 59 it doesn't move around as the ship rolls in the waves,”she said. Wen captures CO2 by turning it into 60 solid using calcium-based materials.The captured CO2,transformed into solid limestone pellets,can either61(regenerate)for further use or repurposed for industrial applications such as construction materials."We want to precisely raise awareness about the importance of these brilliant minds,each of 62 is actually looking for solutions for a better,safer,smarter,and of course, more sustainable world,"EPO spokesperson Luis Berenguer told Xinhua Wednesday. 63(launch)by the EPO in 2022,the Young Inventors'Prize is. tailored for individuals aged 3064 under..It highlights the transformative power of youth-driven innovation and65(honor) outstanding young minds working toward a more sustainable future:Starting this year,the prize will be awarded independently every two years. 高二（下）期末考英语第10页（共12页）
