And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.” Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to sports announcer. I hitchhiked (搭便车) to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station — and got turned down every time. In one studio, a kind lady told me that in most cases big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person. “Go out in the remote areas and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,” she said. I went back home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn’t hired. My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, my frustration boiled over (沸溢，发怒). I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sport announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game. The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute boost to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game! On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words: “If you carry on, one day something good will happen. Something wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment”. 4. What is concluded from the passage is that ________. A. the frustration of the author prevented him from performing well at WOC Radio B. both of the author’s parents showed support when he was trying to search for a job C. Peter MacArthur recognize the author’s talent in broadcasting after reading his resume D. the author lost all his hope and courage when he was turned down by Montgomery Ward 5. The reason why the author wasn’t hired in Chicago was probably that ________. A. he showed no confidence at the stations B. there were no jobs available at the stations C. he had no experience in radio broadcasting D. there were too many people competing with him 6. What does the word “boost” in the last but one paragraph mean? A. requirement. B. amazement. C. enjoyment. D. encouragement. 7. What lesson can you learn from the author’s experience in the passage? A. Through storms come rainbows. B. Prevention is better than cure. C. Well begun is half done. D. Rome was not built in a day. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者求职受挫后坚持，最终得偿所愿，印证母亲“一切都会好起来”的话。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt for jobs.(我的失望一定表现出来了。“一切都会好起来的，”妈妈提醒我。爸爸给了我车去寻找工作。)”可知，作者的父母在他找工作时都给予了支持。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In one studio, a kind lady told me that in most cases big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person.(在一个演播室里，一位好心的女士告诉我，在大多数情况下，大电台不会冒险雇佣没有经验的人。)”可知，作者在芝加哥没被录用可能是因为他没有广播经验。故选C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute boost to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game!(前一年秋天，我的球队在最后20秒以65码的跑动赢得了一场比赛。我对那场比赛做了15分钟的boost，彼得告诉我，我将转播周六的比赛！)”可知，作者对那场比赛进行了15分钟的相关讲述，而彼得因此决定让他转播比赛，结合语境，“boost”在这里应表示积极的、能展现其能力的内容，“encouragement”（激励，鼓舞）有相关含义，符合语境。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，作者多次求职受挫，但始终坚持，最终获得了广播比赛的机会，第一段母亲的话““Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment.(“凡事都会有最好的结果，”每当我遇到失望的事情时，母亲都会这样说。)”也贯穿始终，体现了经历挫折后会有好结果的道理，由此可知，“Through storms come rainbows.(经历风雨才能见彩虹。)”最能概括这个道理。故选A项。 C Researchers at MIT created a high-tech pill that starts to vibrate (震动) once it makes contact with liquid in the user’s stomach and make him or her feel full. The pill was reportedly thought up by Shriya Srinivasan, currently an assistant professor of bioengineering at Harvard University. VIBES, short for Vibrating Ingestible BioEleotronic Stimulator, was only recently made public in a study published in the Science Journal, but it is already being announced by the media as the future of weight loss. Although it has yet to be tested on humans, trials on pigs have achieved very hopeful results. After about 30 minutes of VIBES activity, pigs consumed on average almost 40 percent less food in the next half hour than they did without the smart pill. Apparently, the revolutionary device works by activating stretch receptors in the stomach, modeling the presence of food. This in turn signals the hypothalamus (下丘脑) to increase the levels of hormones that make us feel full. The vibrating stimulator, which is about the size of a vitamin pill, is powered by an encased battery and activated either by the gastric fluid (胃液) breaking down a coat around the pill, or by an incorporated timer. After producing the desired effect, the pill exits the body with other solid waste: The good news is that it is expected to have a cost in the cents to one dollar range, and researchers say that it may eventually be possible to implant the stimulator and thus remove the need for people to constantly swallow it. “Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of a low-cost, non-operative intervention to reduce food intake and ca lorie consumption. The device functions effectively in the stomach and leading to fullness,” said Giovanni Traverso, co-author of the study. “The device has the potential to revolutionize options for weight loss treatment. However, future studies will need to explore the physiological effects of the device before it’s available for patients.” Researchers are now exploring ways to scale up the producing of VIBES capsules which could enable clinical trials in humans. 8. What is the outcome of taking the pill? A. Liquid production. B. Food storage. C. Sensation of fullness. D. Recovery of users. 9. Which aspect of the device is mentioned in paragraph 2? A. Its working principle. B. Its intelligence. C. Its testing history. D. Its side effect. 10. What is the researchers’ ultimate goal of the device? A. To produce gastric fluid with it. B. To destroy the coat around it. C. To fix it in human body. D. To remove solid waste from it. 11. What is Giovanni Traverso’s attitude towards the future of the device? A. Worried. B. Cautious. C. Doubtful. D. Confused. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。麻省理工学院的研究人员发明了一种高科技药丸，一旦它与使用者胃里的液体接触，就会开始振动，让他或她有饱腹感。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers at MIT created a high-tech pill that starts to vibrate (震动) once it makes contact with liquid in the user’s stomach and make him or her feel full. (麻省理工学院研究人员发明了一种高科技药丸，一旦它与使用者胃里的液体接触，就会开始振动，让他或她有饱腹感)”可知，吃下药丸会有饱腹感。故选C项。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Apparently, the revolutionary device works by activating stretch receptors in the stomach, modeling the presence of food. This in turn signals the hypothalamus (下丘脑) to increase the levels of hormones that make us feel full. The vibrating stimulator, which is about the size of a vitamin pill, is powered by an encased battery and activated either by the gastric fluid (胃液) breaking down a coat around the pill, or by an incorporated timer. (显然，这种革命性的装置通过激活胃中的拉伸受体来模拟食物的存在。这反过来又向下丘脑发出信号，使我们感到饱腹的激素水平升高。振动刺激器大约有维生素药丸大小，由封装的电池供电，通过胃液分解药丸周围的涂层或通过内置的计时器激活)”可知，第二段在说设备的工作原理。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Researchers are now exploring ways to scale up the producing of VIBES capsules which could enable clinical trials in humans.(研究人员目前正在探索扩大VIBES胶囊生产规模的方法，这可能使其能够在人体内进行临床试验)”可知，设备的最终目标是植入人体内。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The device has the potential to revolutionize options for weight loss treatment. However, future studies will need to explore the physiological effects of the device before it’s available for patients. (该设备有可能彻底改变减肥治疗的选择。然而，未来的研究需要在患者使用该设备之前探索其生理效果)”可推知，Giovanni Traverso对设备的将来持谨慎的态度。故选B项。 D The Nobel Prize is one of the most prestigious awards in the world. It was established by Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, engineer, and inventor. Nobel was known for inventing dynamite. However, he was concerned about how his inventions could be used for destructive purposes in war.

It was going to be the best party of the year, perhaps the best party of her life. But her mom had said no. Suzi was desperate and protested, “But everyone is going.” “I don’t care who’s going,” replied her mother. “Even if the Queen of England were going, you are still not going.” Suzi was disappointed and even heartbroken. Sunday dinner came around and Suzi's grandmother joined the family for the meal, as she nearly always did on Sunday. Gran noticed how unhappy Suzi had been looking during the meal but didn’t say a thing. It was Suzi's turn to wash up and Gran said, “Let me help you,” while the rest of the family shifted into the living room to watch a video. In the kitchen, Gran knew what had happened and said, “If you were her, what would your objections be?” Suzi hadn’t stopped to think about her mom’s side. After learning that some adults were going to be there, Gran said to Suzi, “Your mother is concerned and doesn’t want anything to happen to you?” “Nothing will happen,” objected Suzi. “Maybe you’re right,” said Gran, “but maybe Mom’s worried in case it could. You know, when your mother was your age, we used to negotiate about something. If she was going out somewhere, I would ask what time she wanted me to pick her up. She would always add an hour or two to it, saying maybe eleven or twelve o’clock, thinking I wouldn’t know what she was doing. I’d tell her that was far too late and that I wanted her home by nine. She’d object and we’d both come to a compromise (折中) at ten or ten-thirty, which was around what both of us had been thinking all along.” “That way, neither of us was the winner or loser; that way, she got to have time out as she wanted and I got to see her home at a reasonable time. By finding a compromise, we both got something, though maybe not completely, of what we wanted.” 注意: （1）续写词数应为150个左右; （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 After hearing Gran’s story, Suzi felt lost in thought. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Gran’s encouragement, Suzi quietly went to her mom’s room and knocked softly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】After hearing Gran’s story, Suzi felt lost in thought. She began to understand that her mom’s concern wasn’t just about fun, but about her safety and responsibility. Gran had helped her realize that sometimes the best solutions come from seeing things from both sides. Suzi didn’t want her mom to feel like she needed to constantly monitor her, but she also wanted to show that she could be responsible. Gran, noticing her deep reflection, suggested, “Why don’t you talk to your mom? Maybe she’ll listen.” With Gran’s encouragement, Suzi quietly went to her mom’s room and knocked softly. Her mom looked up, surprised, but smiled when she saw Suzi. “Mom, I really want to go to the party, but I understand you’re worried,” Suzi said. Her mom sighed, her expression softening. “I just want you to be safe,” she replied. They talked about their concerns and reached an agreement: Suzi could go, but she’d check in regularly. As Suzi left her mom’s room, a warm feeling filled her. She knew their bond was stronger than before. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了苏西想去参加一场沙滩派对，她认为这将是今年最好的派对，或许是她人生中最好的派对，但妈妈却不同意，苏西感到绝望并抗议。周日晚餐时奶奶来了，注意到苏西不开心。在厨房，奶奶让苏西换位思考妈妈的立场，还讲述了自己和苏西妈妈过去的类似经历，通过协商妥协，双方都能得到一些自己想要的东西，告诉苏西在这件事上可以和妈妈达成妥协。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“听了奶奶的故事后，苏西陷入了沉思。”可知，第一段可描写苏西沉思的内容以及奶奶提出的建议。 ②由第二段首句内容“在奶奶的鼓励下，苏西悄悄地走进妈妈的房间，轻轻地敲了敲门。”可知，第二段可描写苏西和妈妈交流的过程以及经过这件事以后，她们的关系更紧密了。 2.续写线索：沉思——提出建议——母女交流——关系加强 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①理解：understand/comprehend ②帮助：help/assist ③意识到：realize/be aware of ④想要做某事：want to do sth/would like to do sth 情绪类 ①感到惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②担心的：worried/concerned 【点睛】[高分句型1] Suzi didn’t want her mom to feel like she needed to constantly monitor her, but she also wanted to show that she could be responsible.（运用了that引导宾语从句） [高分句型2] Her mom looked up, surprised, but smiled when she saw Suzi.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 榆林十中高三年级第一次阶段质量检测 英语试题 （本试卷满分150分，考试时间为120分钟） 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） 1.

B “Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. “If you can carry on, one day something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.” Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to sports announcer. I hitchhiked (搭便车) to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station — and got turned down every time. In one studio, a kind lady told me that in most cases big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person. “Go out in the remote areas and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,” she said. I went back home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn’t hired. My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, my frustration boiled over (沸溢，发怒). I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sport announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game. The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute boost to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game! On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words: “If you carry on, one day something good will happen. Something wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment”. 4. What is concluded from the passage is that ________. A. the frustration of the author prevented him from performing well at WOC Radio B. both of the author’s parents showed support when he was trying to search for a job C. Peter MacArthur recognize the author’s talent in broadcasting after reading his resume D. the author lost all his hope and courage when he was turned down by Montgomery Ward 5. The reason why the author wasn’t hired in Chicago was probably that ________. A. he showed no confidence at the stations B. there were no jobs available at the stations C. he had no experience in radio broadcasting D. there were too many people competing with him 6. What does the word “boost” in the last but one paragraph mean? A. requirement. B. amazement. C. enjoyment. D. encouragement. 7. What lesson can you learn from the author’s experience in the passage? A. Through storms come rainbows. B. Prevention is better than cure. C. Well begun is half done. D. Rome was not built in a day. C Researchers at MIT created a high-tech pill that starts to vibrate (震动) once it makes contact with liquid in the user’s stomach and make him or her feel full. The pill was reportedly thought up by Shriya Srinivasan, currently an assistant professor of bioengineering at Harvard University. VIBES, short for Vibrating Ingestible BioEleotronic Stimulator, was only recently made public in a study published in the Science Journal, but it is already being announced by the media as the future of weight loss. Although it has yet to be tested on humans, trials on pigs have achieved very hopeful results. After about 30 minutes of VIBES activity, pigs consumed on average almost 40 percent less food in the next half hour than they did without the smart pill. Apparently, the revolutionary device works by activating stretch receptors in the stomach, modeling the presence of food. This in turn signals the hypothalamus (下丘脑) to increase the levels of hormones that make us feel full. The vibrating stimulator, which is about the size of a vitamin pill, is powered by an encased battery and activated either by the gastric fluid (胃液) breaking down a coat around the pill, or by an incorporated timer. After producing the desired effect, the pill exits the body with other solid waste: The good news is that it is expected to have a cost in the cents to one dollar range, and researchers say that it may eventually be possible to implant the stimulator and thus remove the need for people to constantly swallow it. “Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of a low-cost, non-operative intervention to reduce food intake and ca lorie consumption. The device functions effectively in the stomach and leading to fullness,” said Giovanni Traverso, co-author of the study. “The device has the potential to revolutionize options for weight loss treatment. However, future studies will need to explore the physiological effects of the device before it’s available for patients.” Researchers are now exploring ways to scale up the producing of VIBES capsules which could enable clinical trials in humans. 8. What is the outcome of taking the pill? A. Liquid production. B. Food storage. C. Sensation of fullness. D. Recovery of users. 9. Which aspect of the device is mentioned in paragraph 2? A. Its working principle. B. Its intelligence. C. Its testing history. D. Its side effect. 10. What is the researchers’ ultimate goal of the device? A. To produce gastric fluid with it. B. To destroy the coat around it. C. To fix it in human body. D. To remove solid waste from it. 11. What is Giovanni Traverso’s attitude towards the future of the device? A. Worried. B. Cautious. C. Doubtful. D. Confused. D The Nobel Prize is one of the most prestigious awards in the world. It was established by Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, engineer, and inventor. Nobel was known for inventing dynamite. However, he was concerned about how his inventions could be used for destructive purposes in war. Thus, in his will, he stipulated that his fortune be used to establish prizes in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace. The first Nobel Prizes were awarded in 1901. Since then, the Nobel Prize has been awarded to countless outstanding individuals who have made significant contributions to their respective fields. The Nobel Prize in Physics and Chemistry often recognizes revolutionary discoveries and advancements in science. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine honors breakthroughs in the understanding and treatment of diseases. The Nobel Prize in Literature rewards outstanding literary works that have a profound impact on humanity. The Nobel Peace Prize is given to those who have worked tirelessly to promote peace and resolve conflicts. Winning a Nobel Prize is not only a great honor but also brings attention to the important work being done in various fields. It inspires future generations of scientists, writers, and peacemakers to strive for excellence and make the world a better place. 12. Who established the Nobel Prize? A. A Swedish physicist. B. A Swedish chemist. C. A Swedish engineer. D. A Swedish inventor. 13. What was Alfred Nobel known for inventing? A. Gunpowder. B. Dynamite. C. Electricity. D. The telephone. 14. How many fields does the Nobel Prize cover? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six. 15. Which field does the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine honor? A. Discoveries in physics. B. Breakthroughs in treating diseases. C. Outstanding literary works. D.

It was going to be the best party of the year, perhaps the best party of her life. But her mom had said no. Suzi was desperate and protested, “But everyone is going.” “I don’t care who’s going,” replied her mother. “Even if the Queen of England were going, you are still not going.” Suzi was disappointed and even heartbroken. Sunday dinner came around and Suzi's grandmother joined the family for the meal, as she nearly always did on Sunday. Gran noticed how unhappy Suzi had been looking during the meal but didn’t say a thing. It was Suzi's turn to wash up and Gran said, “Let me help you,” while the rest of the family shifted into the living room to watch a video. In the kitchen, Gran knew what had happened and said, “If you were her, what would your objections be?” Suzi hadn’t stopped to think about her mom’s side. After learning that some adults were going to be there, Gran said to Suzi, “Your mother is concerned and doesn’t want anything to happen to you?” “Nothing will happen,” objected Suzi. “Maybe you’re right,” said Gran, “but maybe Mom’s worried in case it could. You know, when your mother was your age, we used to negotiate about something. If she was going out somewhere, I would ask what time she wanted me to pick her up. She would always add an hour or two to it, saying maybe eleven or twelve o’clock, thinking I wouldn’t know what she was doing. I’d tell her that was far too late and that I wanted her home by nine. She’d object and we’d both come to a compromise (折中) at ten or ten-thirty, which was around what both of us had been thinking all along.” “That way, neither of us was the winner or loser; that way, she got to have time out as she wanted and I got to see her home at a reasonable time. By finding a compromise, we both got something, though maybe not completely, of what we wanted.” 注意: （1）续写词数应为150个左右; （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 After hearing Gran’s story, Suzi felt lost in thought. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Gran’s encouragement, Suzi quietly went to her mom’s room and knocked softly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
