One day, she came across an old map that belonged to her grandfather. The map showed the location of a mysterious treasure that was hidden deep beneath the ocean. Mia was determined to find the treasure. She packed her bags and set sail on her small boat. She sailed for days, battling strong winds and rough waves, until she finally reached the spot marked on the map. Eager to explore the depths below, Mia outfitted herself appropriately and dived into the ocean. As she swam, Mia was surrounded by various sea creatures, but she kept a close eye out for any sign of the treasure, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. As Mia was about to give up, she caught sight of a shiny object hidden beside a stone. She swam quickly towards it and noticed a chest covered in small sea creatures. With effort, she opened it and gasped at the sight of piles of golden coins, sparkling jewels, and ancient artifacts that had been lost for centuries. Mia carefully packed everything into her diving bag and started to make her way back to the surface. Just then, she heard a loud roar. She turned around and saw a giant octopus (章鱼), its tentacles (触角) reaching out to grab her. Mia was frightened but she remained courageous. She pointed her flashlight at the creature and immediately gave it a shock with her electrical equipment. The octopus reacted with discomfort and moved away, giving Mia enough time to swim away. Mia finally made it to the surface and went onto her boat, exhausted. She set sail for home, eager to show the world the amazing treasure she had found. 24. What inspired Mia’s determination to find the treasure? A. Her grandfather’s map. B. Her bags filled with equipment. C. Her perfect diving skills. D. Her encounter with sea creatures. 25. What happened after Mia dived into the ocean? A. She spotted the treasure with ease. B. She gave up after seeing nothing special. C. She was fascinated by various sea creatures. D. She paid full attention to signs of the treasure. 26. Why did Mia use her electrical equipment on the octopus? A. To kill it. B. To study it. C. To control it. D. To scare it away. 27. Which proverb is best illustrated by Mia’s story? A. Fortune favors the brave. B. Rome wasn’t built in a day. C. Good things come to those who wait. D. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. C When it comes to forces of nature, ants rank among the highest. They march one by one to form a colony for their insect empire and queen. Nutrients, moisture, and a better climate are all invitations to ants. Concentrations of proteins, fats, or carbohydrates attract ants, which basically means all foods attract ants. Fun fact: Since artificial sweeteners do not contain any calory, ants don’t bother with them. While ants get most of their water from the food they eat, they will seek water if they live in a dry climate. Also, experiments have shown that ants that live more than 60 miles away from the ocean will seek salt. Since ants are cold-blooded, they will seek warmth in winter. Ants may enter a house that doesn’t have a single crumb on the floor. This is especially true of Argentine ants, which invade homes in winter. So, how do you stop an army of ants from getting into your home? If you want to get rid of ants, knowing yourself and your home is important. You should sweep up any area where you consume food regularly. Even if you don’t see any crumbs, bits of sugar or salt will attract ants. Store meat and ripe fruits in airtight containers. Aside from the food you consume, you should keep an eye on other sources of nutrients. Pet bowls should be kept without any food or water. You should also periodically check your house plants. The moisture in the soil makes for an inviting place for ants to nest. Finally, you need to clean out your garbage cans in the yard every once in a while and check them for cracks and holes. Ants move from one source of food to the next, and the nearest goldmine of food next to your trash is your home. 28. What can we learn about ants? A. Ants are interested in almost all foods. B. Artificial sweeteners are attractive to ants. C. Ants can’t live long in hot weather. D. Ants don’t need any salt for all their lives. 29. What do Argentine ants invade homes for in winter? A. Crumbs. B. Light. C. Plants. D. Warmth. 30. Where can you most likely find ants? A. In a clean and tidy reading room. B. In an airtight container. C. In a kitchen for food preparation. D. In a freezing cold house in winter. 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. What food ants depend on? B. How you can get rid of ants? C. Where ants are suitable to live? D. When ants become active? D This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) found a new menu at their canteens: the“diet for a cooler planet” menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, and locally grown, and involved little or no packaging. “We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food,” says Kathy Wicks, sustainability director for UMass Dining. The university is not alone in this effort. More and more American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car. Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference. Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about 1/4 of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Beef is a regular target. “If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year,”says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Reducing food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased: about $1,600 worth a year per family of four. “People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate,” says Megan Larmer, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But she adds that substantial change will need to come from the whole food system. 32. Why does the author mention the new menu in UMass? A. To introduce the topic. B. To analyse a phenomenon. C. To put forward a proposal. D. To raise a question. 33. What does the new menu in UMass feature? A. Good taste. B. Low carbon. C. Rich nutrition. D. Low costs. 34. What do Kathy Wicks’ words mean in paragraph 2? A. Fuel-efficient cars are not realistic. B. Universities are important in climate action. C. Food is a decisive factor in climate change. D. Changing food choices can help fight climate change. 35. What can we infer from Sujatha Bergen’s words about beef? A. We should consume less beef. B. Americans can’t go without beef. C. Beef has nothing to do with carbon emissions. D. Beef is popular among millions of drivers. 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。 Many people with a combined love of reading and writing want to become book reviewers.____36____ But most have at least a high school diploma, or often a college degree in literature or a related field.

I couldn’t believe it. The stranger said to my father, “I’m here because a friend of yours knows you’re in need and that you wouldn’t accept direct help, so I’ve brought this for you. Have a great Thanksgiving.” Obviously that experience had a profound impact on my life. I promised myself that someday I would do the same thing for other people. By the time I was eighteen I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (仪式). I did part-time jobs, so I would earn money and buy enough food for one or two families. Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door. I always included a note that explained my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. The note concluded, “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned. Two years ago my business partners and I were stuck in New York City during Thanksgiving. When I told them what I always did on Thanksgiving, they got interested. “Let’s go to Harlem (the poorest area in New York) and feed some people in need. That’s what Thanksgiving really is: Giving good thanks, not just eating turkey.” I said. Everyone got excited about being the delivery people and couldn’t wait to knock at some doors in Harlem. However, when we called the rent-a-car places, we were told that they were all out of vans. 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。 Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二年级下学期期末考试模拟卷 英语试卷 （120分钟 150分） 考试范围：必修第一至第三册20%；选择性必修第一至第四册80% 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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where does the conversation probably take place?

Temperatures are expected to drop to 12 degrees. Unfortunately, those temperatures are going to stay around there for the rest of the week. And it doesn’t look good for the weekend, either. There is a storm coming for the mainland area, so get out your umbrellas, folks. This will be accompanied by some high winds, coming down from the valley. Strangely, valley residents won’t feel the worst of it. As that wind blows between the mountains, it will pick up speed. Then it will hit the wind coming in from the sea and create some dangerous conditions by the sea. As always, if there is anyone who needs assistance, we have a 24-hour line you can call here. 第二部分 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 With thousands of years of continuous history, China is one of the most culturally unique nations. Over many centuries, Chinese artists have created paintings that are now in the hearts of more than a billion people. Nymph of the Luo River — Gu Kaizhi The legend has it that Cao Zhi, a prince of the state of Cao Wei, fell in love with the governor’s daughter. However, she married his brother, Cao Pi, and Cao Zhi became upset. Later, he composed an emotional poem about the love between the goddess and a common person. Gu Kaizhi was moved by the story and illustrated the poem. Court Ladies Adorning Their Hair with Flowers — Zhou Fang During the Tang Dynasty, the kind of “beautiful women painting” enjoyed popularity. Coming from a noble background, Zhou Fang created artworks of this kind. In this painting, the ladies stand as though they were fashion models, but one of them is entertaining herself by teasing a cute dog. Along the River During the Qingming Festival — Zhang Zeduan Zhang Zeduan depicted (描绘) the landscape in his work Along the RiverDuring the Qingming Festival. However, instead of concentrating on the vastness of nature, he captured the daily life of the people of Bianjing, present-day Kaifeng.His work shows much about life in the Northern Song Dynasty. A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains — Wang Ximeng Not only did officials and scholars enjoy listening to music, but they also found pleasure in depicting nature. One such painter was Wang Ximeng. He created this artwork when he was only seventeen years old. He died several years later, but he left one of the largest and most beautiful paintings in Chinese history. 21. What is Nymph of the Luo River based on? A. A story of a poor family. B. A poem about a love story. C. The artist’s view on the society. D. The artist’s personal experience. 22. Which artist represented people’s daily life through his painting? A. Gu Kaizhi. B. Zhou Fang. C. Zhang Zeduan. D. Wang Ximeng. 23. Which is your best choice if you want to enjoy a painting about nature? A. Nymph of the Luo River. B. A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains. C. Along the River During the Qingming Festival. D. Court Ladies Adorning Their Hair with Flowers. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了中国历史上四位著名画家及其代表作品。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。 根据Nymph of the Luo River — Gu Kaizhi部分中的“Later, he composed an emotional poem about the love between the goddess and a common person. Gu Kaizhi was moved by the story and illustrated the poem.(后来，他创作了一首关于女神与凡人之间的爱情的情感诗。顾恺之被这个故事感动了，并为这首诗配了插图)”可知，《洛神赋图》是根据一首关于爱情故事的诗创作的。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Along the River During the Qingming Festival — Zhang Zeduan部分中的“Zhang Zeduan depicted the landscape in his work Along the River During the Qingming Festival. However, instead of concentrating on the vastness of nature, he captured the daily life of the people of Bianjing, present-day Kaifeng.(张择端在《清明上河图》中描绘了风景。然而，他没有专注于大自然的广阔，而是捕捉了今天开封汴京人民的日常生活)”可知，张择端通过他的画描绘了人们的日常生活。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains — Wang Ximeng部分中的“Not only did officials and scholars enjoy listening to music, but they also found pleasure in depicting nature. One such painter was Wang Ximeng. He created this artwork when he was only seventeen years old. He died several years later, but he left one of the largest and most beautiful paintings in Chinese history.(官员和学者不仅喜欢听音乐，还喜欢描绘自然。王希孟就是其中一位画家。他创作这幅作品时只有十七岁。几年后他去世了，但他留下了中国历史上最大、最美丽的画作之一)”可知，如果你想欣赏一幅展现自然美的画，王希孟的《千里江山图》是最好的选择。故选B。 B Mia was a young biologist who loved exploring the ocean. She had always been fascinated by the depths of the sea and the creatures that lived there. One day, she came across an old map that belonged to her grandfather. The map showed the location of a mysterious treasure that was hidden deep beneath the ocean. Mia was determined to find the treasure. She packed her bags and set sail on her small boat. She sailed for days, battling strong winds and rough waves, until she finally reached the spot marked on the map. Eager to explore the depths below, Mia outfitted herself appropriately and dived into the ocean. As she swam, Mia was surrounded by various sea creatures, but she kept a close eye out for any sign of the treasure, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. As Mia was about to give up, she caught sight of a shiny object hidden beside a stone. She swam quickly towards it and noticed a chest covered in small sea creatures. With effort, she opened it and gasped at the sight of piles of golden coins, sparkling jewels, and ancient artifacts that had been lost for centuries. Mia carefully packed everything into her diving bag and started to make her way back to the surface. Just then, she heard a loud roar. She turned around and saw a giant octopus (章鱼), its tentacles (触角) reaching out to grab her. Mia was frightened but she remained courageous. She pointed her flashlight at the creature and immediately gave it a shock with her electrical equipment. The octopus reacted with discomfort and moved away, giving Mia enough time to swim away. Mia finally made it to the surface and went onto her boat, exhausted. She set sail for home, eager to show the world the amazing treasure she had found. 24. What inspired Mia’s determination to find the treasure? A. Her grandfather’s map. B. Her bags filled with equipment. C. Her perfect diving skills. D. Her encounter with sea creatures. 25. What happened after Mia dived into the ocean? A. She spotted the treasure with ease. B. She gave up after seeing nothing special. C. She was fascinated by various sea creatures. D. She paid full attention to signs of the treasure. 26. Why did Mia use her electrical equipment on the octopus? A. To kill it. B. To study it. C. To control it. D. To scare it away. 27. Which proverb is best illustrated by Mia’s story? A. Fortune favors the brave. B. Rome wasn’t built in a day. C. Good things come to those who wait. D. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了年轻生物学家Mia凭借祖父的旧地图去海底寻找宝藏，过程中遭遇诸多困难，最终成功找到宝藏并逃脱危险的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“One day, she came across an old map that belonged to her grandfather. The map showed the location of a mysterious treasure that was hidden deep beneath the ocean.(一天，她偶然发现了一张属于她祖父的旧地图。地图显示了一个隐藏在海底深处的神秘宝藏的位置)”和第二段中“Mia was determined to find the treasure.(Mia决心找到这个宝藏)”可知，是祖父的地图激发了Mia寻找宝藏的决心。故选A项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“As she swam, Mia was surrounded by various sea creatures, but she kept a close eye out for any sign of the treasure, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary.(游泳时，Mia被各种各样的海洋生物包围着，但她密切留意着任何宝藏的迹象，然而一切看起来都很平常)”可知，Mia潜入海洋后，她全神贯注地留意着宝藏的迹象。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“She turned around and saw a giant octopus (章鱼), its tentacles (触角) reaching out to grab her.(她转过身，看到一只巨大的章鱼，它的触手伸出来要抓住她)”和倒数第二段中“She pointed her flashlight at the creature and immediately gave it a shock with her electrical equipment. The octopus reacted with discomfort and moved away, giving Mia enough time to swim away.(她用手电筒照着这个生物，立刻用电设备电击它。章鱼感到不适并移开了，这给了Mia足够的时间游走)”可知，Mia用电设备是为了吓跑章鱼。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，结合第二段中“Mia was determined to find the treasure. She packed her bags and set sail on her small boat. She sailed for days, battling strong winds and rough waves, until she finally reached the spot marked on the map.(Mia决心找到宝藏。她收拾好行李，驾着小船起航了。她航行了好几天，与强风和汹涌的海浪搏斗，终于到达了地图上标记的地点)”、倒数第二段“Mia was frightened but she remained courageous. She pointed her flashlight at the creature and immediately gave it a shock with her electrical equipment.(Mia很害怕，但她依然勇敢。她用手电筒照着那个生物，立刻用电设备电击它)”和最后一段中“Mia finally made it to the surface and went onto her boat, exhausted. She set sail for home, eager to show the world the amazing treasure she had found.(Mia终于爬上了水面，上了她的船，筋疲力尽。她启航回家，渴望向世界展示她发现的惊人宝藏)”可知，Mia勇敢地踏上寻找宝藏的旅程，在遇到危险时也保持勇敢，最终成功获得宝藏。所以“Fortune favors the brave.(幸运眷顾勇者)”最能体现Mia的故事。“Rome wasn’t built in a day.(罗马不是一天建成的)”强调做事需要时间和耐心；“Good things come to those who wait.(好事多磨)”强调等待的意义；“One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.(一个人的垃圾是另一个人的宝贝)”强调不同人对事物价值的看法不同。故选A项。 C When it comes to forces of nature, ants rank among the highest. They march one by one to form a colony for their insect empire and queen. Nutrients, moisture, and a better climate are all invitations to ants. Concentrations of proteins, fats, or carbohydrates attract ants, which basically means all foods attract ants. Fun fact: Since artificial sweeteners do not contain any calory, ants don’t bother with them. While ants get most of their water from the food they eat, they will seek water if they live in a dry climate. Also, experiments have shown that ants that live more than 60 miles away from the ocean will seek salt. Since ants are cold-blooded, they will seek warmth in winter. Ants may enter a house that doesn’t have a single crumb on the floor. This is especially true of Argentine ants, which invade homes in winter. So, how do you stop an army of ants from getting into your home? If you want to get rid of ants, knowing yourself and your home is important. You should sweep up any area where you consume food regularly. Even if you don’t see any crumbs, bits of sugar or salt will attract ants. Store meat and ripe fruits in airtight containers. Aside from the food you consume, you should keep an eye on other sources of nutrients. Pet bowls should be kept without any food or water. You should also periodically check your house plants. The moisture in the soil makes for an inviting place for ants to nest. Finally, you need to clean out your garbage cans in the yard every once in a while and check them for cracks and holes. Ants move from one source of food to the next, and the nearest goldmine of food next to your trash is your home. 28. What can we learn about ants? A. Ants are interested in almost all foods. B. Artificial sweeteners are attractive to ants. C. Ants can’t live long in hot weather. D. Ants don’t need any salt for all their lives. 29. What do Argentine ants invade homes for in winter? A. Crumbs. B. Light. C. Plants. D. Warmth. 30. Where can you most likely find ants? A. In a clean and tidy reading room. B. In an airtight container. C. In a kitchen for food preparation. D. In a freezing cold house in winter. 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. What food ants depend on? B. How you can get rid of ants? C. Where ants are suitable to live? D. When ants become active? 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了蚂蚁的生活习性以及如何防止蚂蚁进入家中。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Nutrients, moisture, and a better climate are all invitations to ants. Concentrations of proteins, fats, or carbohydrates attract ants, which basically means all foods attract ants.(营养物质、水分和更适宜的气候都是吸引蚂蚁的因素。蛋白质、脂肪或碳水化合物的聚集会吸引蚂蚁，这基本上意味着所有食物都会引来蚂蚁。)”可知，蚂蚁几乎对所有食物都感兴趣。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Since ants are cold-blooded, they will seek warmth in winter. Ants may enter a house that doesn’t have a single crumb on the floor. This is especially true of Argentine ants, which invade homes in winter.(由于蚂蚁是冷血动物，它们在冬季会寻找温暖的地方。即便地板上一粒食物碎屑都没有，蚂蚁也可能进入房屋。阿根廷蚁尤其如此，它们会在冬季入侵住宅。)”可知，阿根廷蚂蚁在冬天入侵房屋是为了寻找温暖。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Nutrients, moisture, and a better climate are all invitations to ants. Concentrations of proteins, fats, or carbohydrates attract ants, which basically means all foods attract ants.(营养物质、水分和更适宜的气候都是吸引蚂蚁的因素。蛋白质、脂肪或碳水化合物的聚集会吸引蚂蚁，这基本上意味着所有食物都会引来蚂蚁。)”和第五段“You should sweep up any area where you consume food regularly. Even if you don’t see any crumbs, bits of sugar or salt will attract ants. Store meat and ripe fruits in airtight containers.(你应该定期清扫所有经常进食的区域。即便看不到任何食物碎屑，微量的糖或盐也会吸引蚂蚁。将肉类和成熟的水果储存在密封容器中)”可知，蚂蚁会被食物吸引，因此最有可能在准备食物的厨房里发现蚂蚁。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“So, how do you stop an army of ants from getting into your home?(那么，如何阻止一群蚂蚁进入你的家呢？)”以及下文提出的建议可知，本文主要讲的是如何摆脱蚂蚁，由此可知，B项：How you can get rid of ants?(如何摆脱蚂蚁？)是最好的标题。故选B。 D This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) found a new menu at their canteens: the“diet for a cooler planet” menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, and locally grown, and involved little or no packaging. “We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food,” says Kathy Wicks, sustainability director for UMass Dining. The university is not alone in this effort. More and more American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car. Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference. Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about 1/4 of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Beef is a regular target. “If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year,”says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Reducing food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased: about $1,600 worth a year per family of four. “People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate,” says Megan Larmer, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But she adds that substantial change will need to come from the whole food system. 32. Why does the author mention the new menu in UMass? A. To introduce the topic. B. To analyse a phenomenon. C. To put forward a proposal. D. To raise a question. 33. What does the new menu in UMass feature? A. Good taste. B. Low carbon. C. Rich nutrition. D. Low costs. 34. What do Kathy Wicks’ words mean in paragraph 2? A. Fuel-efficient cars are not realistic. B. Universities are important in climate action. C. Food is a decisive factor in climate change. D. Changing food choices can help fight climate change. 35. What can we infer from Sujatha Bergen’s words about beef? A. We should consume less beef. B. Americans can’t go without beef. C. Beef has nothing to do with carbon emissions. D. Beef is popular among millions of drivers. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了食物选择对气候变化的影响，介绍了马萨诸塞大学的新菜单，强调通过改变饮食习惯来对抗气候变化 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) found a new menu at their canteens: the “diet for a cooler planet” menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, and locally grown, and involved little or no packaging.(今年秋天，马萨诸塞大学（UMass）的学生在食堂发现了一份新菜单：“为地球降温的饮食”菜单。这意味着用环保的方式饲养的香草烤羊肉。其中包括从当地农场田地里采摘的红薯。这些选择以植物为主，在当地种植，几乎没有包装。)”和第二段“We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food.(我们希望学生通过选择食物来参与气候行动。)”和“More and more American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change.( 越来越多的美国消费者和机构正在考虑他们的食物选择如何影响气候变化。)”可知，作者提到马萨诸塞大学的新菜单是为了引入话题，即食物选择对气候变化的影响。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) found a new menu at their canteens: the “diet for a cooler planet” menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach.(今年秋天，马萨诸塞大学（UMass）的学生在食堂发现了一份新菜单：“为地球降温的饮食”菜单。这意味着用环保的方式饲养的香草烤羊肉。)”可知，马萨诸塞大学的新菜单的特点是低碳。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food.(我们希望学生通过选择食物来参与气候行动。)”可知，Kathy Wicks认为改变食物选择可以帮助对抗气候变化。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year.(如果美国人平均每周从饮食中减少四分之一磅的牛肉，那就相当于每年从公路上减少1000万辆汽车。)”可知，Sujatha Bergen认为我们应该少吃牛肉。故选A。 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。 Many people with a combined love of reading and writing want to become book reviewers.____36____ But most have at least a high school diploma, or often a college degree in literature or a related field.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍成为书评人的相关事宜，包括无特定教育要求、与书评批评的区别、专注类型、需有作品样本及报酬方式等。 【36题详解】 根据空后的“But most have at least a high - school diploma, or often a college degree...( 但大多数人至少有高中文凭，或者通常有文学或相关领域的大学学位……)”可知，“but”表示转折，所以前面应该说成为书评人没有特定的教育要求，G选项“There are no specific educational requirements for becoming book reviewers.( 成为书评人没有特定的教育背景要求。)”符合语境。故选G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“And remember book reviews are a little different from book critics.( 记住书评和书评批评有点不同。)”提到书评和书评批评有点不同。F选项“Book reviews are traditionally less formal compared with book critics.( 传统上，书评与书评批评相比不那么正式。)”进一步阐述了两者的不同，符合逻辑。故选F项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Most book reviewers focus on one specific type.( 大多数书评人专注于一种特定类型。)”提到大多数书评人专注于一种特定类型。C选项“It can be historical fiction, or anything else.( 它可以是历史小说，或者其他任何东西。)”举例说明了可能专注的类型，承接上文。故选C项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Even if the reviews are never published, it’s important to have samples.( 即使这些评论从未发表，有样本也很重要。)”提到有样本也很重要。E选项“Most editors won’t hire a reviewer without any sample pieces.( 大多数编辑不会雇佣没有任何样本作品的书评人。)”解释了为什么有样本很重要，符合因果关系。故选E项。 【40题详解】 根据下文“Some simply write book reviews on a volunteer basis. In exchange, they will receive free books to review...( 有些人只是在志愿的基础上写书评。作为交换，他们会收到免费的书来评论……)”提到有些人只是在志愿的基础上写书评。B 选项“Most book reviewers are paid per piece.( 大多数书评人按篇获得报酬。)”与后面的志愿写书评形成对比，且引出下文关于报酬和交换方式的内容。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When I was in fourth grade, I started stuttering (口吃).

Fortunately 64. to trade 65. on##upon 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇关于海龟的说明文，介绍了海龟的种类、习性以及它们面临的生存威胁。 【56题详解】 考查冠词。句意：你知道海龟自恐龙时代起就一直生活在地球上吗？“the time of...”为固定搭配，意为“……的时代”，此处特指恐龙时代，所以用定冠词the。故填the。 【57题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：海龟共有七种不同的种类，在海洋中我们能发现其中六种。species意为“物种；种类”，单复数同形，根据“seven different”可知，此处应用复数形式species作主语。故填species。 【58题详解】 考查动词。句意：海龟共有七种不同的种类，在海洋中我们能发现其中六种。情态动词can后接动词原形，所以此处用find。故填find。 【59题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：海龟令人惊叹之处在于，在开阔的海洋中生活多年后，它们会回到自己出生的筑巢地去产卵。after为介词，后接动名词作宾语，travel的动名词形式为travel(l)ing。故填travel(l)ing。 【60题详解】 考查时态语态。句意：海龟令人惊叹之处在于，在开阔的海洋中生活多年后，它们会回到自己出生的筑巢地去产卵。be born意为“出生”，根据语境可知，此处描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，主语they（指代海龟）与bear之间是被动关系，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were +过去分词”，主语they是复数，所以用were born。故填were born。 【61题详解】 考查连词。句意：即使幼龟成功进入海洋，它们仍然是海鸟和鱼类美味的点心。根据语境，此处表示让步转折关系，even if/though意为“即使”，故填if/though。 【62题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：然而，海龟面临的最大威胁来自人类。根据语境及空前的“the”可知，此处应用形容词最高级greatest，表示“最大的”。故填greatest。 【63题详解】 考查副词。句意：幸运的是，各国正在共同努力保护和养护海龟。此处修饰整个句子，应用副词fortunately，意为“幸运地”，句首单词首字母大写。故填Fortunately。 【64题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：1981年，一项国际协议规定，在国际上买卖所有七种海龟及其蛋、壳或肉均为非法行为。此处it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式to trade，所以填to trade。故填to trade。 【65题详解】 考查介词。句意：健康的海洋依赖于海龟。depend on/upon为固定短语，意为“依赖；依靠”，故填on/upon。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 我们的祖国地大物博，风景名胜众多，请你用英语介绍一个国内你喜欢或去过的地方。题目已给出，内容包括： （1）该地方的基本情况（如名称、地理位置等）； （2）该地方的特色（如文化、景点等）； （3）你对该地方的印象和感受。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右； （2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 A Beautiful Place in China _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: A Beautiful Place in China Sichuan Province is located in Southwest China.

I couldn’t believe it. The stranger said to my father, “I’m here because a friend of yours knows you’re in need and that you wouldn’t accept direct help, so I’ve brought this for you. Have a great Thanksgiving.” Obviously that experience had a profound impact on my life. I promised myself that someday I would do the same thing for other people. By the time I was eighteen I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (仪式). I did part-time jobs, so I would earn money and buy enough food for one or two families. Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door. I always included a note that explained my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. The note concluded, “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned. Two years ago my business partners and I were stuck in New York City during Thanksgiving. When I told them what I always did on Thanksgiving, they got interested. “Let’s go to Harlem (the poorest area in New York) and feed some people in need. That’s what Thanksgiving really is: Giving good thanks, not just eating turkey.” I said. Everyone got excited about being the delivery people and couldn’t wait to knock at some doors in Harlem. However, when we called the rent-a-car places, we were told that they were all out of vans. 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。 Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范例 1 Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Thus, we decided to go out to find a van that could be helpful for our idea. It happened that a van was waiting outside a store and the driver was busy unloading. I greeted him with a smile and told him my Thanksgiving ritual and our plan. Handing him 100 dollars, I asked him if he could work together with us to carry food to Harlem. The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. Having filled the van with full load of food, we left for Harlem, dressed like delivery men. Two hours later, we were on our way back with an empty van. Although exhausted, we talked and laughed with great joy and excitement. The broad smile spreading across the poor people’s faces told us that our small act of kindness made a difference to them and I believed some day they would also give others a helping hand if possible. 范例 2 Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Walking to a crossroad and waiting by the light, we knocked on each window, “Sir, could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks?” Every time the driver would look away ignoring us. Then we started offering people $100 but that also seemed ineffective. We were ready to give up when a perfect van drove up, which was extra big and could accommodate all of us. We went up and asked “Could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks? We’ll pay you a hundred dollars.” The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. On the way to Harlem we chatted. “Why do you people want to do this?” asked he. I told him my story and my thanksgiving ritual. Arriving there, we first went to buy necessary food, packing enough for seven families for thirty days. Then we went to deliver them. It was both an astonishing realization that people lived this way and a truly fulfilling experience to make even a small difference. 范例 3 Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. We went to the street and waved to stop the passing vans. What made us down was that no one stopped. But I told myself: “maybe next one.” After about half an hour, a van stopped in front of me and a young man stuck out his head, “What can I do for you, Sir?” “Are you willing to take us to Harlem? We can pay you 100 dollars.” “Harlem?” the driver hesitated. After I explained what we wanted to do, he nodded. I handed him 100 dollars. The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. We bought a lot of food, packed them and knocked at some doors to deliver the food to the families in need. As usual, I included the notes explaining my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. Seeing the surprised but grateful expressions on their faces from a distance, we felt we had a meaningful Thanks giving Day. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是在作者小的时候有人在感恩节帮助过他家，这对作者产生了深远的影响，作者后来也会用类似的方式去帮助穷人，并且希望这种善举可以传递下去。 【详解】范例1 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“看到街上行驶的货车，我觉得一定有一辆是可供我们用的。”可知，第一段可描写“我”到街上找司机帮忙的经过。为与下一段首句呼应，“我”肯定是找到了愿意帮忙的司机。 ②由第二段首句内容“司机拒收我们的钱，而且很愿意载我们一程。”可知，第二段可描写司机和“我们”一路上帮助穷人的经过，以及“我”对帮助穷苦人家的感悟与思考。 2. 续写线索：找到司机——说明缘由——司机同意帮助——帮助穷人——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①决定去做：decide to do/ make a decision to do ②出发去：leave out for/ set out for ③给予某人帮助：give sb. a helping hand/ lend sb. a helping hand 情绪类 ①疲惫的：exhausted/ tired ②快乐：joy/ happiness/ pleasure 【点睛】【高分句型1】Thus, we decided to go out to find a van that could be helpful for our idea.（运用了that引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】It happened that a van was waiting outside a store and the driver was busy unloading.（运用了it作形式主语） 【高分句型3】Handing him 100 dollars, I asked him if he could work together with us to carry food to Harlem.（运用了if引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
