Police officers, firefighters or emergency response teams? Would you put your local meteorologist (气象预报员) in this group? That’s the career Ashley Ruiz chose, and she’s now the first female chief meteorologist in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ruiz predicts the weather for her community. In 2020, a tornado hit Ruiz’s hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee — and, even closer to home, her house. So she said she knew what a lifesaving job this could be. However, her job isn’t without difficulties. “Hearing people have been injured, like in a big hurricane, is really hard,” she said. “We try our best to predict the weather as best as we can, and we are getting better. But it can always change.” Ruiz talked about the new and changing weather patterns. She said, “We are absolutely seeing changes in weather, with more intense and more frequent storms, which relate to climate change.” Weather is changing everywhere, as the planet warms. There are more frequent droughts, stronger storms, and increasing temperature changes. This makes predicting the weather difficult. Ruiz always knew she was interested in weather and how it affected the world. But her path to a career in meteorology wasn’t easy. She said, “I struggled so hard with math and wanted to give up. But I kept pushing and working hard, and now I’m the first woman chief meteorologist in the Baton Rouge TV market. I’m proud of that.” She wants kids to know they should never give up on their education or their dreams. 4. Why was the disaster in Ruiz’s hometown mentioned in the text? A. To call on people to prepare for disasters. B. To introduce Ruiz’s unusual childhood experience. C To offer a successful example of weather forecast. D. To show Ruiz’s understanding of the work of a meteorologist. 5. What is a challenge of predicting the weather according to the text? A. Climate change. B. People’s injury. C. Poor technology. D. Lack of experience. 6. Which word can best describe Ruiz according to the last paragraph? A. Creative. B. Clever. C. Hard-working. D. World-famous. 7. In which section of a newspaper may the text appear? A. Sports. B. People. C. Education. D. Health. C People who have trouble walking often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves. It’s called Seatrac. Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving ramp (轻便梯) that can smoothly carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water or go for a swim. The Seatrac system can also help anyone else who has a hard time walking, including older people and pregnant women. Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Ignatios Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend said he enjoyed the sea, but didn’t like having to be carried into the ocean as if he were a sack (袋) of potatoes. Mr. Fotiou realized that there must be a way to make it easier for wheelchair users to get into the water. Mr. Fotiou worked with his partner and a professor at a Greek university to design the system. In time, they formed a company called TOBEA to build and sell it. The company worked hard to make the system simple to put in place and easy to run. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach the Seatrac. The system is solar-powered. It doesn’t require outside power and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out. The Seatrac system can easily be packed up and stored when the swimming season ends. This summer, the Seatrac system is being used at over 220 beaches in Greece, Cyprus, Italy and Latvia. TOBEA hopes to offer Seatrac in other countries soon. The Seatrac service in Greece is being offered for free. The Greek government has helped pay for it, with local cities buying and managing the equipment. Greece’s government hopes that Seatrac will help attract more tourists to the country. 8. Who is Seatrac designed for? A. Older people who move freely. B. Youths who like to swim in the sea. C. Women who enjoy beach baths with their children. D. People who have trouble moving around on the beach. 9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. The system. B. Potato. C. Ramp. D. Normal wheelchair. 10. What can we learn about the Seatrac system? A. It’s not easy to operate. B. Users don’t have to worry about charging it. C. People need to have a big cost to use it in Greece. D. It has been available at more than one thousand beaches. 11. Why does the Greek government help pay for the Seatrac service? A. To improve the government’s image. B. To promote the development of tourism. C. To set up an organization for the disabled. D. To support small and medium-sized local companies. D In late June, the US government agreed to allow two companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, to sell chicken meat that has been grown in a laboratory. That makes the US the second country to approve lab-grown chicken. Unlike normal chicken meat, lab-grown meat isn’t created by raising and killing chickens. Instead, it’s a meat product developed from animal cells that are grown in a lab. So it is also called “cell-based” or “cultured” meat. The process of creating lab-grown meat is completely different from the normal meat-raising process. The first cells come from live animals. The cells are grown inside large steel tanks, where they’re fed with everything they need to grow. In a few weeks, the cells grow to look like normal meat. The companies then form this meat into more familiar shapes. The companies say that their meat is better for the environment than meat from animals. Raising animals for food uses huge amounts of land and water. It also creates a lot of pollution. Raising animals for food creates about 15% of the world’s greenhouse gases. That’s why cutting back on eating meat is one of the easiest ways to fight climate change. Lab-grown meat can also help out in other ways. Raising animals for food is extremely hard on animals. They are often kept in small spaces and are treated badly. Polls (民意调查) have shown that many people aren’t too interested in lab-grown meat. Lots of people believe that it just sounds weird. But Amy Chen, who works for Upside Foods, says that once people try the meat, “The most common response we get is, ‘Oh, it tastes like chicken.’” But right now, the meat is far more expensive than meat from animals. Even though the companies have been approved, they have the huge challenge of figuring out how to make much more meat far more cheaply. 12. What can we know about lab-grown chicken meat? A. It is created from animal cells in a laboratory. B. It is cheaper than the normal meat. C. America is the first country to approve selling it. D. Two companies are allowed to do research on it. 13. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The necessity of eating normal meat. B. The process of creating lab-grown meat. C The disadvantages of raising animals for food. D. The similarities between lab-grown meat and normal meat. 14. What does the underlined word “weird” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Easy. B. Ordinary. C. Strange. D. Attractive. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Lab-grown Meat Is Outdated B. What Exactly Is Lab-grown Meat? C. How Is the Lab-grown Chicken Made? D. Lab-grown Chicken Meat Is Coming 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。 Anyone with a story to tell can write a book, either for their own enjoyment or to publish for all to see.

We were a good football team with a 12-1 record so far in the season. In November, we traveled to meet our cross-state competitors, which were a strong team. If we won this game, we would play in the State Championship game in December. Playing in the championship game in Birmingham was something my dad did as a senior in high school. To make it that far was a dream of mine. I wanted to do something my dad had done, even better. That November night, the stadium was filled with one hundred or so faithful fans that followed us to the battle. My parents sat closest to the field. The game started. It was a fight to the finish with both teams leaving everything they had on the field. However, with under a minute left in the game, our team made a mistake that caused us to lose the game. I knew where my parents sat and hid my face from their seats. I could hear the disappointment in the sighs(叹息)of the crowd. Worse still, I couldn’t bear the thought of what my dad was thinking. The clock struck zero, signaling that our chances of making it to the finals were over. We were disappointed. Not enough energy to cry. I remained silent. I didn’t want to speak to anyone, especially my dad. I feared how the conversation would go. I didn’t want to hear “Good game” because I knew it wasn’t true. I didn’t want to hear “You’ll get them next time” because there was not going to be a “next time”. I didn’t want to hear “You should’ve done it in this or that way”. I wasn’t ready to face the reality of falling short in my father’s footsteps. In fact, I’d been trying so hard to make my dad proud of me, even though he didn’t ask me to do so. I walked alone across the field to the clubhouse. I looked up into the stands where my parents once sat. Empty. Every seat was empty. 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。 Suddenly, a familiar sound from a whistle(哨子)fell on my ears. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He loves me even though I blew it? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 灵武市第一中学高二年级上学期期末考试 英语试卷 考生注意： 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4.本卷命题范围：外研版必修第三册Unit 3~选择性必修第一册Unit 3. 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。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.

Tuesday—Sunday(●开放时间：周二至周日中午12点至晚上7点)”及其他三家商铺的营业时间可知，Chelsea Flea在周日晚上7点结束营业。因此，如果顾客在周日晚上6点后想购买便宜的衣服，这里是唯一可能的选择。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据AuH2O部分中的“And of course, you’ll find many sellers offering some of the coolest and most unique vintage (复古的) clothing in all of NYC! (当然，你会发现许多卖家提供纽约市最酷、最独特的复古服装！)”和Celene’s Thrift Shop部分中的“Definitely one of the friendliest thrift stores in New York, this is a small but crowded space that offers tons of cool and unique vintage clothes and items. (这绝对是纽约最友好的旧货店之一，这是一个小而拥挤的空间，提供了大量酷而独特的复古衣服和物品。)”可知，提供酷而独特的古着服饰是它们的共同点。选项A不正确，因为它们位于不同的街道；选项C不正确，因为Celene’s Thrift Shop中未提及；选项D不正确，因为AuH2O只在周末开放，而Celene’s Thrift Shop一周开放六天。故选B。 B When you think about who’s responsible for a city’s safety, what people come to mind? Police officers, firefighters or emergency response teams? Would you put your local meteorologist (气象预报员) in this group? That’s the career Ashley Ruiz chose, and she’s now the first female chief meteorologist in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ruiz predicts the weather for her community. In 2020, a tornado hit Ruiz’s hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee — and, even closer to home, her house. So she said she knew what a lifesaving job this could be. However, her job isn’t without difficulties. “Hearing people have been injured, like in a big hurricane, is really hard,” she said. “We try our best to predict the weather as best as we can, and we are getting better. But it can always change.” Ruiz talked about the new and changing weather patterns. She said, “We are absolutely seeing changes in weather, with more intense and more frequent storms, which relate to climate change.” Weather is changing everywhere, as the planet warms. There are more frequent droughts, stronger storms, and increasing temperature changes. This makes predicting the weather difficult. Ruiz always knew she was interested in weather and how it affected the world. But her path to a career in meteorology wasn’t easy. She said, “I struggled so hard with math and wanted to give up. But I kept pushing and working hard, and now I’m the first woman chief meteorologist in the Baton Rouge TV market. I’m proud of that.” She wants kids to know they should never give up on their education or their dreams. 4. Why was the disaster in Ruiz’s hometown mentioned in the text? A. To call on people to prepare for disasters. B. To introduce Ruiz’s unusual childhood experience. C. To offer a successful example of weather forecast. D. To show Ruiz’s understanding of the work of a meteorologist. 5. What is a challenge of predicting the weather according to the text? A. Climate change. B. People’s injury. C. Poor technology. D. Lack of experience. 6. Which word can best describe Ruiz according to the last paragraph? A. Creative. B. Clever. C. Hard-working. D. World-famous. 7. In which section of a newspaper may the text appear? A. Sports. B. People. C. Education. D. Health. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要讲述了Ashley Ruiz的职业生涯和个人经历，介绍了她作为气象预报员的工作内容、面临的挑战、对天气变化的看法，以及她如何克服数学难题成为首位女性首席气象预报员的经历。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“In 2020, a tornado hit Ruiz’s hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee—and, even closer to home, her house. So she said she knew what a lifesaving job this could be.(2020年，一场龙卷风袭击了Ruiz位于田纳西州查塔努加的家乡——甚至离她家更近的地方。所以她说她知道这是一份救命的工作。)”可知，文章提到Ruiz家乡发生的灾难是为了展示她对气象预报员工作的理解。她亲身体验了龙卷风对家乡的破坏，因此她深刻理解这份工作的重要性和救命的性质。这一经历使她更加明白作为气象预报员的责任和使命。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Ruiz talked about the new and changing weather patterns. She said, “We are absolutely seeing changes in weather, with more intense and more frequent storms, which relate to climate change.” Weather is changing everywhere, as the planet warms. There are more frequent droughts, stronger storms, and increasing temperature changes. This makes predicting the weather difficult.( Ruiz谈到了新的和变化中的天气模式。她说：“我们绝对看到了天气的变化，风暴更加剧烈和频繁，这与气候变化有关。”随着地球变暖，天气到处都在变化。干旱更频繁，风暴更猛烈，气温变化更大。这使得预测天气变得困难。)”可知，气候变化使得天气变得更加难以预测，因此是预测天气的一个挑战。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Ruiz always knew she was interested in weather and how it affected the world. But her path to a career in meteorology wasn’t easy. She said, “I struggled so hard with math and wanted to give up. But I kept pushing and working hard, and now I’m the first woman chief meteorologist in the Baton Rouge TV market. I’m proud of that.”(Ruiz一直知道自己对天气及其对世界的影响感兴趣。但她成为气象学家的道路并不容易。她说：“我在数学上挣扎得很厉害，几乎想放弃了。但我一直在坚持和努力，现在我是巴吞鲁日电视市场的第一位女性首席气象预报员。我为此感到骄傲。”)”可知，Ruiz在数学上挣扎得很厉害，但她一直坚持不懈地努力工作，最终成为了巴吞鲁日电视市场的首位女性首席气象预报员。这显示了她是一个勤奋努力的人。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When you think about who’s responsible for a city’s safety, what people come to mind? Police officers, firefighters or emergency response teams? Would you put your local meteorologist (气象预报员) in this group? That’s the career Ashley Ruiz chose, and she’s now the first female chief meteorologist in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ruiz predicts the weather for her community.(当你想到谁负责城市的安全时，你会想到哪些人？警察、消防员还是应急响应团队？你会把当地的气象预报员归入这个群体吗？这就是Ashley Ruiz选择的职业，现在她是路易斯安那州巴吞鲁日的第一位女性首席气象预报员。Ruiz为她的社区预测天气。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了Ashley Ruiz作为气象预报员的职业生涯和个人经历，包括她如何克服困难成为首位女性首席气象预报员，以及她对天气和气候变化的看法。这种关于人物成长和成就的文章更适合出现在报纸的“People”（人物）栏目中。故选B。 C People who have trouble walking often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves. It’s called Seatrac. Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving ramp (轻便梯) that can smoothly carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water or go for a swim. The Seatrac system can also help anyone else who has a hard time walking, including older people and pregnant women. Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Ignatios Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend said he enjoyed the sea, but didn’t like having to be carried into the ocean as if he were a sack (袋) of potatoes. Mr. Fotiou realized that there must be a way to make it easier for wheelchair users to get into the water. Mr. Fotiou worked with his partner and a professor at a Greek university to design the system. In time, they formed a company called TOBEA to build and sell it. The company worked hard to make the system simple to put in place and easy to run. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach the Seatrac. The system is solar-powered. It doesn’t require outside power and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out. The Seatrac system can easily be packed up and stored when the swimming season ends. This summer, the Seatrac system is being used at over 220 beaches in Greece, Cyprus, Italy and Latvia. TOBEA hopes to offer Seatrac in other countries soon. The Seatrac service in Greece is being offered for free. The Greek government has helped pay for it, with local cities buying and managing the equipment. Greece’s government hopes that Seatrac will help attract more tourists to the country. 8. Who is Seatrac designed for? A. Older people who move freely. B. Youths who like to swim in the sea. C. Women who enjoy beach baths with their children. D. People who have trouble moving around on the beach. 9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. The system. B. Potato. C. Ramp. D. Normal wheelchair. 10. What can we learn about the Seatrac system? A. It’s not easy to operate. B. Users don’t have to worry about charging it. C. People need to have a big cost to use it in Greece. D. It has been available at more than one thousand beaches. 11. Why does the Greek government help pay for the Seatrac service? A. To improve the government’s image. B. To promote the development of tourism. C. To set up an organization for the disabled. D. To support small and medium-sized local companies. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Seatrac系统，一种由希腊发明的太阳能驱动的轻便梯座椅，使轮椅使用者能自行轻松进入海滩游玩。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“People who have trouble walking often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves. It’s called Seatrac.(走路有困难的人通常很难享受海滩。但希腊数百个海滩现在为坐轮椅的人自己下水提供了一种新方式。它叫做Seatrac。)”可知，希腊在数百个海滩为行动不便的人提供了自动操作的轮椅入水坡道系统 Seatrac。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上文的“Mr. Fotiou worked with his partner and a professor at a Greek university to design the system.(福蒂欧和他的搭档以及希腊一所大学的教授一起设计了这个系统。)”可知，Mr. Fotiou和他的搭档以及一所大学的教授设计了这个系统，划线代词it指的是上文中提到的同一个事物，所以此处指代的应是the system。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The system is solar-powered. It doesn’t require outside power and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out.(该系统是太阳能驱动的。它不需要外部电源，即使停电也能继续运行。)”可知，这个系统是太阳能驱动的，所以使用者不用担心它的充电问题。故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The Greek government has helped pay for it, with local cities buying and managing the equipment. Greece’s government hopes that Seatrac will help attract more tourists to the country.(希腊政府帮助支付了这笔费用，由当地城市购买和管理设备。希腊政府希望Seatrac能帮助吸引更多游客。)”可知，希腊政府为这个轮椅系统买单，是希望Seatrac能帮助吸引更多游客，由此可知，希腊政府要帮助支付Seatrac的服务费用是想促进旅游经济的发展。故选B项。 D In late June, the US government agreed to allow two companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, to sell chicken meat that has been grown in a laboratory. That makes the US the second country to approve lab-grown chicken. Unlike normal chicken meat, lab-grown meat isn’t created by raising and killing chickens. Instead, it’s a meat product developed from animal cells that are grown in a lab. So it is also called “cell-based” or “cultured” meat. The process of creating lab-grown meat is completely different from the normal meat-raising process. The first cells come from live animals. The cells are grown inside large steel tanks, where they’re fed with everything they need to grow. In a few weeks, the cells grow to look like normal meat. The companies then form this meat into more familiar shapes. The companies say that their meat is better for the environment than meat from animals. Raising animals for food uses huge amounts of land and water. It also creates a lot of pollution. Raising animals for food creates about 15% of the world’s greenhouse gases. That’s why cutting back on eating meat is one of the easiest ways to fight climate change. Lab-grown meat can also help out in other ways. Raising animals for food is extremely hard on animals. They are often kept in small spaces and are treated badly. Polls (民意调查) have shown that many people aren’t too interested in lab-grown meat. Lots of people believe that it just sounds weird. But Amy Chen, who works for Upside Foods, says that once people try the meat, “The most common response we get is, ‘Oh, it tastes like chicken.’” But right now, the meat is far more expensive than meat from animals. Even though the companies have been approved, they have the huge challenge of figuring out how to make much more meat far more cheaply. 12. What can we know about lab-grown chicken meat? A. It is created from animal cells in a laboratory. B. It is cheaper than the normal meat. C. America is the first country to approve selling it. D. Two companies are allowed to do research on it. 13. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The necessity of eating normal meat. B. The process of creating lab-grown meat. C. The disadvantages of raising animals for food. D. The similarities between lab-grown meat and normal meat. 14. What does the underlined word “weird” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Easy. B. Ordinary. C. Strange. D. Attractive. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Lab-grown Meat Is Outdated B. What Exactly Is Lab-grown Meat? C. How Is the Lab-grown Chicken Made? D. Lab-grown Chicken Meat Is Coming 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国政府批准两家公司销售实验室培育的鸡肉的消息，并详细介绍了实验室培育肉的制作过程、环保优势、公众接受度以及面临的挑战。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Unlike normal chicken meat, lab-grown meat isn’t created by raising and killing chickens. Instead, it’s a meat product developed from animal cells that are grown in a lab. So it is also called “cell-based” or “cultured” meat.(与普通的鸡肉不同，实验室培育的肉并不是通过饲养和宰杀鸡只来获得的。相反，它是一种在实验室中从动物细胞中培育出来的肉类产品。因此，它也被称为“细胞基”或“培养”肉。)”可知，实验室培育的鸡肉不是通过饲养和宰杀鸡只来获得的，而是从在实验室中培养的动物细胞中培育出来的。因此，我们可以知道实验室培育的鸡肉是由实验室中的动物细胞制成的。故选A。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第五段“Raising animals for food uses huge amounts of land and water. It also creates a lot of pollution. Raising animals for food creates about 15% of the world’s greenhouse gases. That’s why cutting back on eating meat is one of the easiest ways to fight climate change. Lab-grown meat can also help out in other ways. Raising animals for food is extremely hard on animals. They are often kept in small spaces and are treated badly.(饲养动物作为食物会消耗大量的土地和水资源。同时，它还会产生大量的污染。饲养动物作为食物约占全球温室气体的 15%。这就是为什么减少肉类摄入是应对气候变化最简单的方法之一。实验室培育的肉类也可以在其他方面提供帮助。饲养动物作为食物对动物来说极为残忍。它们经常被关在小空间里，并受到虐待。)”可知，第五段主要讲述了饲养动物作为食物的弊端，包括占用大量土地和水资源、产生大量污染以及占全球温室气体排放的约15%。这些内容都指出了饲养动物作为食物的不利影响，因此第五段主要讨论的是饲养动物作为食物的缺点。故选C。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Polls (民意调查) have shown that many people aren’t too interested in lab-grown meat.(民意调查显示许多人对实验室培育的肉类并不太感兴趣。)”可推测，划线单词所在句指的应该是人们对这种肉类没有好感，或不喜欢。再根据下文“But Amy Chen, who works for Upside Foods, says that once people try the meat, “The most common response we get is, ‘Oh, it tastes like chicken.’”(但 Upside Foods 的Amy Chen表示，一旦人们尝过这种肉，“我们得到的最常见的回应是，‘哦，它的味道就像鸡肉。’”)”中的“but”可推测，划线单词的意思和“不同寻常、奇怪”相似。选项A“Easy (容易的)”；选项B“Ordinary (普通的)”；选项C“Strange (奇怪的)”；选项D“Attractive (有吸引力的)”。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In late June, the US government agreed to allow two companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, to sell chicken meat that has been grown in a laboratory. That makes the US the second country to approve lab-grown chicken.(六月底，美国政府同意允许两家公司 Upside Foods 和 Good Meat 销售在实验室培育的鸡肉。这使得美国成为第二个批准实验室培育鸡肉的国家。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要报道了美国政府同意两家公司销售实验室培育的鸡肉的消息，并详细介绍了实验室培育肉的相关内容。全文围绕“实验室培育的鸡肉即将上市”这一主题展开，因此最好的标题是D“Lab-grown Chicken Meat Is Coming(实验室培育的鸡肉即将上市)”。故选D。 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。 Anyone with a story to tell can write a book, either for their own enjoyment or to publish for all to see.

In November, we traveled to meet our cross-state competitors, which were a strong team. If we won this game, we would play in the State Championship game in December. Playing in the championship game in Birmingham was something my dad did as a senior in high school. To make it that far was a dream of mine. I wanted to do something my dad had done, even better. That November night, the stadium was filled with one hundred or so faithful fans that followed us to the battle. My parents sat closest to the field. The game started. It was a fight to the finish with both teams leaving everything they had on the field. However, with under a minute left in the game, our team made a mistake that caused us to lose the game. I knew where my parents sat and hid my face from their seats. I could hear the disappointment in the sighs(叹息)of the crowd. Worse still, I couldn’t bear the thought of what my dad was thinking. The clock struck zero, signaling that our chances of making it to the finals were over. We were disappointed. Not enough energy to cry. I remained silent. I didn’t want to speak to anyone, especially my dad. I feared how the conversation would go. I didn’t want to hear “Good game” because I knew it wasn’t true. I didn’t want to hear “You’ll get them next time” because there was not going to be a “next time”. I didn’t want to hear “You should’ve done it in this or that way”. I wasn’t ready to face the reality of falling short in my father’s footsteps. In fact, I’d been trying so hard to make my dad proud of me, even though he didn’t ask me to do so. I walked alone across the field to the clubhouse. I looked up into the stands where my parents once sat. Empty. Every seat was empty. 注意：1.续写词数应150个左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, a familiar sound from a whistle(哨子)fell on my ears. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He loves me even though I blew it? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Suddenly, a familiar sound from a whistle (哨子) fell on my ears. I turned around and saw my dad standing there, whistle in hand. He had been a football coach in his younger days. He walked towards me with a determined look on his face. “Son,” he said, “a loss doesn’t define you. What matters is how you respond to it.” His words were simple yet powerful, cutting through my self-pity. I stared at him, eyes wide with a mix of surprise and confusion. He loves me even though I blew it? It was a thought that had never crossed my mind. As he stood there, looking at me with nothing but love and understanding, I realized that his pride in me wasn’t tied to a win or a loss. His love was unconditional. I felt a lump form in my throat. I stepped forward and hugged him tightly. In that moment, I understood that no matter how many dreams I might miss, as long as I had my dad's love and support, I could face any failure bravely. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述身为校橄榄球队队长的 “我”，渴望像父亲当年一样带领球队打进州冠军赛。在一场关键比赛中，“我们” 因失误输掉比赛，“我” 极度失望，害怕面对父亲，独自走向俱乐部时发现父母已不在看台。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，一阵熟悉的哨声传进我的耳中。”可知，第一段可描写听到熟悉哨声后，父亲出现并对 “我” 说失败不能定义一个人，重要的是如何应对，让“我”感到惊讶和困惑，引出下文“我” 对父亲态度的进一步思考。 ②由第二段首句内容“即便我搞砸了一切，他依然爱我吗？”可知，第二段可描写“我” 意识到父亲对 “我” 的爱是无条件的，不取决于比赛输赢，“我” 深受感动，明白了只要有父亲的爱与支持就能勇敢面对失败，升华文章主题。 2.续写线索：听到哨声父亲出现——父亲安慰鼓励“我”——“我” 意识到父亲无条件的爱——“我”感动并领悟面对失败的勇气 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①定义：define/determine ②回应：respond to/reply to ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类： ①困惑：confusion/bewilderment ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】【高分句型 1】What matters is how you respond to it.（运用了what引导的主语从句和how引导的表语从句 ） 【高分句型 2】As he stood there, looking at me with nothing but love and understanding, I realized that his pride in me wasn’t tied to a win or a loss.（运用了 as 引导的时间状语从句，现在分词短语作状语，以及 that 引导的宾语从句 ） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
