B Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow trousers and boots,zipping up his jacket,and finding his helmet and gloves.His brother Gabe paced the front hall."Let's go! The brothers walked to the park,the sleds (bouncing against their snow pants. Swish,swish,swish.Simon could see the sledding hill ahead of them.To him,it looked more like a sledding mountain.It was so high that the park district had built wooden steps into the slope to help sledders climb back up.Kids were taking turns on sleds,screaming all the way down.Simon couldn't tell if their cries meant they were happy or terrified.Yet he knew which one he felt. Gabe was taking the steps two at a time."Come on!"he called to Simon.Simon stared up. He was both sweating and freezing,his stomach knotted like a pretzel.Should he turn back? But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing. At the top his brother stopped and looked at Simon."Do you want me to go down with you?"he asked.Knowing Gabe wanted to fly down the sledding hill without his little brother,Simon took a deep breath."I'm going.By myself." “Good for you,.Simon,”Gabe said. Simon sat crossed-legged on the sled and gripped (the plastic handles on each side. His heart was doing leapfrogs.Gabe gave him a small nudge on his back.Suddenly,he was dashing down the hill like a wild penguin.The wind whooshed.The cold stung.He had the handles in a death grip when the sled swung around and sent him flying down the hill backward,BACKWARD!He couldn't stop.Faster and faster he went.He couldn't even 高三英语月考试题共12页第4页 scream.Was he going to crash?Why had he thought this was a good idea? The ground leveled off,and Simon's sled slowed and then came to a stop at last.He rolled out and lay on his back,breathing hard. “Are you all right?”Gabe asked..

C Step aside,blue collar ()And white collar,pink collar and green collar.There's a new collar in town."New collar"jobs are those that require advanced skills but not necessarily advanced degrees,especially in emerging high-tech fields like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity(网s络安全)，electric vehicles and robotics.. 高三英语月考试题共12页第5页 There are real fears that workers will lose jobs to technology,especially artificial intelligence,in the coming years.But "new collar"optimists think in a more positive way: There are also real opportunities ahead for skilled workers who know how to handle machines. "Somebody has to program,monitor and maintain those robots,"said Sarah Boisvert,the founder of the New-Collar Network. Even if millions of high-tech jobs are created in the coming years,the impact on workers who lose jobs may be significant.For many Americans without four-year college degrees, according to census(人口普查)data,the new job market will require training. Ginni Rometty,a former chief executive of IBM,is believed to have created a "new collar"in 2016.At the time,she said,IBM was having trouble filling cybersecurity jobs,partly because outdated criteria required that candidates（候选人)have college degrees. "Due to our high qualifications in these online jobs,we overlooked a large number of qualified and available candidates,"she wrote in an email."Unless millions of people are trained in the skills employers need now,"she added,"they risk being unemployed even as millions of good-paying jobs go unfilled." Christopher M.Cox,a researcher who has written about the new-collar economy,said, "The alternative model of four-year universities is really great."However,he added that"new collar"may also be a clever term that relieves the anxiety of workers by defining the constantly changing labor market and technology companies as more ideai rather than “terminators(终结者).” 28.What does“new collar'”mean? A.People engaged in cybersecurity. B.People working at electric vehicles. C.People closely connected with artificial intelligence. D.People with advanced skills regardless of degrees. 29.What made IBM's cybersecurity jobs unfilled? A.Much stress. B.Low salaries. C.High qualifications. D.Few candidates. 30 What is the benefit of the"new collar"economy to the society? A.It gives more opportunities to the workers. 高三英语月考试题 共12页第6页 B.It helps artificial intelligence develop better. C.It rebuilds the confidence of the white collar. D.It changes the system of technology companies. 31.What is the purpose of the text? A.To explain the anxiety of workers. B.To state the electric vehicle industry. C.To emphasise the college education. D.To introduce the new-collar phenomenon. D While concerns about "digital dementia"-the potential for technology to harm memory and thinking skills -have grown,new research suggests smart phones and computers might actually help protect older adults'cognitive（认知的)health,the ability to think clearly,learn effectively,remember information and make decisions,all of which are essential for maintaining independence and overall mental well-being. A comprehensive review of 57 studies involving over 411,000 adults,whose average age was sixty-eight,revealed surprising findings.Older individuals who regularly used digital devices showed a 42%lower risk of cognitive decline compared to non-users.The research examined various technologies including smart phones,computers,social media,and email. Scientists propose several explanations for this protective effect.First,technology use,like texting,browsing,video calls,activates multiple brain regions,strengthening neural ( connections as crossword puzzles do.Second,digital tools help maintain social connections, fighting loneliness known to negatively impact cognitive health."Technology engagement appears to offer both mental exercise and social benefits,"noted Dr.Helen Zhou,the study's lead author. However,the study didn't analyze specific usage patterns or duration.Additionally,since participants adopted technology later in life,results may differ for lifelong users."Further comprehensive studies are required to establish the most effective ways of using digital tools for preserving cognitive function,"scientists cautioned. With approximately 10 million new dementia cases annually worldwide according to data from WHO,these findings open promising avenues for prevention ()In Japan, retirement homes using tablet-based memory games report 30%slower cognitive decline. While not definitive,they challenge assumptions about technology's universal harm to aging minds and highlight its potential as a tool for maintaining cognitive vitality in older 高三英语月考试题共12页第7页 populations. 32.Which factor contributes to the cognitive benefits that digital devices bring to the elderly? A.Improved dietary habits. B.Enhanced social connectivity. C.Increased physical activity. D.Better sleep quality. 33.What limitation of the study is highlighted by the researchers? A.The study focused mainly on younger adults B.The sample size was too small to draw conclusions. C.The study included only lifelong technology users. D.It did not analyze specific usage patterns or duration. 34.What does the underlined word "avenues"refer to? A.Physical pathways. B.Research methods. C.Potential approaches. D.Technological devices. 35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.Digital Dementia Risks Outweigh Benefits B.Study:Tech Use May Protect Elderly Brains C.Social Media Harms Elderly Cognition D.Exercise Better Than Tech for Brain Health 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。 Stair-climbing:A Good Way to Exercise If you are trying to lose weight,climbing stairs as a regular exercise might be for you. Research shows that stair-climbing is more effective than walking.36.Even going down stairs,you burn around five times more because your muscles have to work to slow the body. Dr.Alberto Minetti of University of Milan in Italy has done a large amount of research on human movement,including stair-climbing."37,"says VSI Minetti.He suggests that older people and beginner stair-climbers watch their speed.Minetti does his own stair-climbers at his home in Milan.He says he often takes a few deep breaths before going up many stairs. Trained as a doctor,Minetti has spent his career as a researcher,38.The study 高三英语月考试题共12页第8页 notes that handrails (are available along most stairs in tall buildings.Using them increases the muscle involved by getting the arms involved;the study shows."They are relatively small muscles s in the arms,but better than nothing,"Minetti says."Handrails offer safety,,too.” _39.If stair-climbing were an Olympic sport,Australian Suzy Walsham would win gold medals.She has won 10 races up New York City's Empire State Building-officially 1,576 stairs-and five climbs up the Eiffel Tower,Overall,Walsham has won more than 100 international stair races. Walsham says that stair-climbing is a good form of exercise for many kinds of people. "Many people struggle to run as they age,and the exercise is too hard on the joints,"she says. “40” A.So stair-climbing is a great replacement B.You can lose weight gradually by climbing stairs C.Researchers have divided opinions on the exercise D.There is another one who is in favor of this kind of sport E.Stair-climbing is an exercise everyone can do and doesn't cost money F.In a study,he points out that using arms in stair-climbing adds extra power G.You burn about 20 times more calories by going up stairs than walking on flat ground 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） Recently,I stayed for two nights at an independently owned hotel.It was a(n)41trip,but what happened during my stay impressed me.
