B Ashley Liberto and her dog Bentley have been inseparable since she got him eight years ago. When Bentley had trouble walking a few years ago, Liberto was worried. “I took him to the pet hospital. He was diagnosed (诊断) with an amputated (截肢) right elbow and would need a prosthetic leg,” Liberto says. Luckily, the surgery (外科手术) was a success. After Bentley started moving again on three legs, Liberto decided to get a custom prosthetic leg (定制的假肢) for him. When she saw the cost of custom dog prosthetics, the teacher at Providence Day School in Charlotte, North Carolina reached out to some of her former students for help in finding a more affordable choice. Providence Day School has a class focused on computer- aided design (计算机辅助设计) and 3D printing. The teacher, Todd Johnson, says, “It’s an introductory level class that teaches students to make basic shapes using the technology. But when Liberto suggested trying to make a prosthetic leg for her dog, the students were excited to help and try something new.” “I thought it was a chance for the students to see a real- world application of what they were learning at school. I knew once the students started thinking about it seriously, they would come up with excellent designs,” Johnson says. The class broke up into small groups to come up with designs for Bentley. Team leader Brandon Hollis and his group came up with the winning design. Hollis group spent weeks creating a prosthetic leg for Bentley. “It fit way better than I could have hoped for. It still needs some small changes, and then it should fit perfectly,” Hollis says. The students hope to have a finished custom ( adj.量身设计的) and comfortable prosthetic leg for Bentley in the next few weeks. Even though the class has ended, the young designers have continued the project on their own time. 41. What happened to Bentley? A. He was hit by a car. B. He had a terrible illness. C. He got lost on his way home. D. He got separated from his owner. 42. What did Liberto do for Bentley? A. She provided some students to play with him. B. She tried to get a new leg for him. C. She gave him some walking training. D. She found a new home for him. 43. How did the students feel about making a leg? A. It was a piece of cake to them. B. They were excited to try something new prosthetic C. They didn’t take it seriously. D. It was too hard for them to finish. 44. What does Johnson expect of his students? A. They can put what they’re learning in the classroom into practice. B. They can think carefully about what they want to learn. C. They can pay some attention to animal protection. D. They can develop new 3D printing technology. 45. What is Hollis and his group’s plan for the next few weeks? A. Sharing their design with others. B. Offering free design courses. C. Making their design better. D. Introducing a new design. C Success does not belong to a select group of individuals (个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success. Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting. Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can’t have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You can’t get your dream job, if you’re afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesn’t guarantee (保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you won’t succeed. Fail. Unless you’re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won’t happen. To have success you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula (公式) for success is to double your rate of failure (失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed. Work Harder. Everyone runs but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success. Enjoy the Journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey. Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, and you will succeed. 46. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in achieving success? A. Working hard. B. Good education. C. Strong desire. D. Enjoying failure. 47. What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”? A. It’s not easy for people to develop their health. B. You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life. C. Keeping working harder is necessary when you go after success. D. Most people don’t want to spend too much time running. 48. Which of the following is TRUE about success according to the passage? A. If you want to succeed, you should have special talents. B. If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up. C. Success is about doing what the common person can’t do. D. Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey. 49. The best title of the passage might be ________. A. The Importance of Success B. The Meaning of Success C. Success or Failure D. The Five Main Steps to Success 50. We can find the article in the ________ part of a newspaper. A. news B. education C. Entertainment D. Advertisement 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读下面文章，按照要求回答问题。 On April 2021, 24-year-old Jibin Madathil packed a bag with a few clothes and other necessities and left his home in search of a job. But he was certain that a full-time job would never work for him as he wanted to explore new things. So, he decided to spend many days at different destinations, work somewhere for not more than a month, earn (挣钱) money and travel to another place. “For as long as I can remember, I’ve been into travelling. Nearly hills, rivers and tourist places were the destinations at first,” says Jibin, a hotel management graduate.“ But when I became a teenager, an all- India trip was always my dream.” When finding jobs at different locations became a task and his wallet felt lighter, Jibin decided to start a food stall (摊位) on his bike. He had a kerosene stove (煤油炉) and a few utensils (器具) along with some rice, bread and tea to travel on his way. He bought some more things to serve noodles, bread and tea on his way. The kitchen was set up on his bike’s top box where water and kerosene were stored. Everything felt simple as he had previous experience in a kitchen. In some areas, there were hardly any food stalls. Jibin began his business in these places and it was an immediate success. He earned 500 — 600 rupees per day from his two- wheeler food stall. “More than the income (收入) from the stall, it was due to the kindness of people that I set out on my dream journey. While some offered me work, others provided me with a space to sleep,” he says. While usual riders cover hundreds of kilometers a day, Jibin finds a destination and stays there for a few days, getting to know its people and culture. This also helps him find small jobs too. Jibin has plans to visit foreign countries on his two- wheeler. He is preparing himself and his bike for this big journey now. “Whatever happens, I’ll have my kerosene stove and utensils ready, which gives me the confidence of reaching my destination,” he says. 51. Why didn’t Jibin settle for a full- time job? (no more than 10 words) _________________________________________________________________ 52. What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 mean? (no more than 5 words) _________________________________________________________________ 53. What experience helped Jibin start his food stall easily? (no more than 10 words) _________________________________________________________________ 54. What really impressed Jibin along his journey? (no more than 10 words) _________________________________________________________________ 55. Do you like to travel around the world? Why or why not? (no more than 20 words) _________________________________________________________________ 71.第二节：书面表达(共25分) 56. 假定你是李华，是校英文报的记者，你校于上周五成功举办了一次秋游活动(autumn outing)。请你写一篇报道刊登在校英文网站上，内容包括：(1)活动的时间和地点；(2)活动的内容；(3)活动的意义。 注意：1.词数：100左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 An Exciting Autumn Outing Last Friday, _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 天津市弘毅中学2024—2025学年度第一学期期中测试 高一英语 本试卷满分120分，考试用时100分钟。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分20分) 第一节：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，你将有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。(共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分) 1.

Upon arrival, we were attracted by the beautiful autumn scenery — golden leaves dancing in the wind and clear lake water reflecting the blue sky. Some students took photos to record the moment, while others joined in group games like frisbee and rope skipping. Teachers also joined us, sharing stories and laughter. At noon, we had a picnic together, enjoying delicious food and friendly chats. This outing not only helped us get close to nature and relax from study pressure but also strengthened the bonds between classmates and teachers. It was a memorable day that everyone will cherish. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
