The Venice Experiment: A Year of Trial and Error Living Abroad B Fang Jianze, a student of today’s Zhuhai College of Science and Technology, was diagnosed (诊断) with a rare disease at the. age of three, leaving his legs almost useless. Up until he met his university professor, Fang Jianze always believed he would never be able to do anything on his own.

In order to build up his physical strength, Fang began riding his bike 5 km every day, covering more than 600 km in half a year.

C A recent study has found that food has a lot to do with comfort in a new city. In a new city there’s an emotional cost to the food. You may miss your favorite restaurant or your family’s home cooking. But, on the other hand, you may love the new eateries you get to discover. People who were satisfied with their cultural neighborhood said they experienced new food more than anything else. In other words, the difference between adapting and not adapting to a cultural neighborhood may just be some new food. Food wasn’t the only thing that influenced comfort in a new place. Knowing a city or a neighborhood well enough to travel without directions also strongly correlated with people’s ability to adjust. Respondents who felt comfortable in their new location took just 2.8 months, on average, to move around without directions, compared with the 3.7 months it took people who didn’t feel comfortable. This difference could represent anything from fewer frustrations to a greater sense of mobility, and even security. There might be a reason why those who moved for work were so likely to be satisfied, and that reason is friendship. Work was the No. I way people made friends in a new city, helping 35.2% of respondents get to know people. Experts will tell you that making friends at work is not only important for your personal happiness but also a key for career success. So, whether you’re moving to a new city or not, be a friendly co-worker. After a person moves to a new place, they may jokingly refer to the many local habits and phrases they’ve picked up, yet moving truly does bring its own host of changes in a person. Most commonly, that change is new interests, which is cited by 30.9% of respondents who have moved. New food preferences are also enjoyed for 27.7% of respondents. Fortunately, only 7.5% pretend to pick up a new accent (口音), which, research shows, is physically impossible after the age of 12. 8. Why is food important upon your arrival in a new city? A. Food reduces your hunger in an unfamiliar city. B. The taste of food helps you make new discoveries. C. Good taste of food makes a neighborhood familiar. D. Food provides emotional comfort and helps reduce homesickness. 9. What can we infer from the second paragraph? A. Knowing a place well helps you feel more comfortable there. B. You can adapt well if you know the traffic situation in a new city. C. You will feel less tired on your travels if you follow the directions. D. A good sense of directions can make you feel less stressed. 10. What is the author’s advice on working in a new city? A. Be satisfied with your new job. B. Make some friends in advance. C. Be a friendly and cooperative co-worker. D. Be an outstanding professional. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards adults’ learning a new accent in a new city? A. Unbelievable. B. Unquestionable. C. Unbearable. D. Understandable. D The 2024 Paris Olympic Games used a wide variety of technological advancements, including AI, to offer industry-first innovations at one of the world’s biggest sporting events. Thomas Bach, the president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), emphasized the importance of AI’s role in the Games, as it was used to create “highlight videos in multiple formats and languages during these Games”. AI was also used to make the Olympic Games more sustainable, “through a very developed first-ever data capture and energy management system”. Chinese tech companies employed their cutting-edge cloud computing and AI tools to improve live broadcast experiences and athletes’ performances at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. As part of the opening ceremony, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra smartphone was equipped on each country’s athletes on the Seine River. This allowed for extended onboard footage to be shared via an exclusive 5G network powered by Orange. The IOC released an AI-powered monitoring system to protect athletes from online abuse (辱骂). The technology made use of AI to monitor social media accounts and flag abusive messages for further action by the relevant platforms. Athletes were able to try out an all-new chat service, which had been developed in partnership with Intel, on the Athlete365 platform. AI has been used to monitor energy consumption in real-time. I lario Coma, chief technology officer at the IOC, emphasized the innovative approach they were taking for event planning. “We are now working with our digital partner Intel using the concept of digital twins, or digital representations of venues, so we can foresee, for example, where we would need power, where we would need to place cameras, and if there could be any security issues — all without needing to be on-site every time.” AI technology also impacted internal workflows, systems viewing experiences, and storytelling at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Intel introduced AI experiences that transform the Olympic experience for fans, organizers, CEO athletes, and viewers globally. Yiannis Exarchos, CEO of OBS, highlighted the cooperation with Alibaba to provide multi-camera replay systems with AI-powered motion reconstruction, creating 3D models and mapping additional viewpoints across 21 sports. 12. Why did the author quote Thomas Bach’s remarks in the first paragraph? A. To praise how AI contributed to the Olympics. B. To foresee the sustainability of the Olympic Games. C. To reveal the fields of sports technology can influence. D. To indicate the future events technology has impact on. 13. What was the contribution of Chinese tech companies at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games? A. Protection of athletes from the audience. B. Supply of a better social media platform. C. Extension of the coverage of 5G signals. D. Improving the quality of live broadcasts. 14. What can we infer from the AI’s role in monitoring energy consumption? A. It helped meet potential energy demand. B. It provided a more scientific event planning. C. It scheduled engineers for on-site maintenance. D. It was used to control the power consumption. 15. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Technology Gave Audience a Better Experience B. Technology Shaped the 2024 Paris Olympic Games C. Social Media Protected Athletes from Online Abuse D. Tech Companies Helped Host the Biggest Sporting Events 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。 With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. ____16____.

Her artworks, filled with lively colors, caught the beauty of her surroundings. Despite her talent, Mei often struggled with self-doubt. She wondered if her skills were truly excellent or if she was just fortunate. One day, Mei heard about a painting con test in the town called the “Sunlit Art Challenge”. Determined to prove herself and remove the doubts, Mei quickly signed up for it. The contest made her both excited and nervous. Mei spent countless hours perfecting her painting techniques, pouring her heart and soul into her works. For the contest, Mei painted a beautiful sunrise over the sea. The sun just started to rise above the horizon (地平线), its bright light beginning to shine over the ocean. The sun’s rays looked like golden light, spreading across the water and making it shine like a huge mirror. As the sun rose higher, it looked like a bright ball of fire, warming the sea and making the waves shine brightly. The sky changed colors too, from a soft blue to bright oranges, pinks and reds. It was like watching the day begin right there on her canvas (画布). Mei’s painting caught the peaceful yet lively scene of the sun’s first rays touching the vast ocean, symbolizing hope. On the day of the contest, the village square was filled with excitement. Artists from near and far displayed their works. Mei set up her painting, feeling both proud and anxious. As the judges evaluated (评估) Mei’s painting, her heart raced with nervousness. Since their expressions were hard to read, Mei felt like her doubts were right—she wasn’t as good as she hoped. When the host started to announce the winners, Mei listened with hope and curiosity. But sadly her name wasn’t called. Disappointment washed over her, and she forced a smile, clapping for the winners. After the contest, Mei felt disheartened. She thought her painting had failed to impress anyone, and she lost her motivation to lift her brush. At that time, Mr. Zhang, a villager, approached Mei. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mr. Zhang told Mei that Mei’s painting was excellent and moved him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 揭阳市2024—2025学年度高中一年级教学质量测试 英语 本试题共10页，考试时间120分钟，满分120分 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生先将自己的信息填写清楚、准确，将条形码准确粘贴在条形码粘贴处。 2.请按照题号顺序在答题卡各题目的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效。 3.答题时请按要求用笔，保持卡面清洁，不要折叠，不要弄破、弄皱，不得使用涂改液、修正带、刮纸刀。考试结束后，请将本试题及答题卡交回。 第一部分 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 【1~3题答案】 【答案】1.
