Cold weather can actually have a big impact on your health. Let’s learn something so as to stay safe and healthy this season! Why Is Cold Winter A Challenge? Winter brings more than just colds. Icy sidewalks can lead to slips and falls. Cold air may also harm your lungs and heart, raising the risk of chest infections especially for the elders. Fighting Off Winter Illnesses Most common winter illnesses can be handled at home. However, flu can be more serious than you think. A flu vaccine is a simple way to protect you. And don’t forget the power of handwashing! Cleaning up with water, adding soap if possible, on a regular basis is one of the most convenient ways to stop virus like the flu from spreading. Keep your house warm and your bedroom window closed especially on cold winter nights, as breathing cold air can be bad for your health. Layer Up: A Good Way To Keep Warm Staying warm is your secret weapon this season! When heading outside, wear several light layers instead of one heavy jacket. The trapped air between layers keeps you much warmer. You can try the 3-Layer Rule: Stay Active: Don’t Let The Cold Make You A Couch Potato! Staying active is crucial for both physical and mental health. If you’re stuck indoors, get up and stretch your body at least once in an hour. Break up your time spent being inactive by walking around your home or standing up from your chair when you are on phone. Any movement helps boost your mood and keep your body strong. With these easy tips, you can enjoy the winter while staying happy and healthy. Check out further advice on how to stay well this winter on our websites. Stay warm, stay active, and take care! 21．What is the easiest way to fight against winter illnesses? A．Washing hands regularly. B．Staying away from flu. C．Having a special vaccine. D．Closing the house’s windows. 22．How does the outer layer help stay warm? A．It traps air to provide warmth. B．It absorbs sweat from the skin. C．It keeps cold wind and rain out. D．It prevents heat loss from the neck 23．Which activity is recommended to keep you active in winter? A．Break up your time schedule. B．Stay indoors and rest to avoid the cold. C．Keep standing when on phone. D．Get up and loosen up after sitting for long. B Not too long ago, I was at the grocery store with my husband, and an elderly man in front of us was using a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) card. The card reader kept rejecting his payment. He had apparently gone over his limit for the month. He was confused and more than a little distressed about the situation. While I was trying to decide if I would offer to step in and pay the difference, the young man checking him out said, “Sir, this happens all the time. It’s not a problem.” The line behind us was growing long, but the young man didn’t show an ounce of impatience or irritation. He confirmed that the man was, indeed, over his limit for the month.Turned out, he wasn’t over by much, so the checker helped the customer determine which two or three items that he could make do without until his account was topped up. “You’ ll definitely want to keep the milk and the butter and the eggs and the bread.” Then the clerk pulled out a jar of salsa, a bottle of juice and some crackers that he and his customer agreed could wait until the beginning of the new month. The young man assured his older customer, once again, that this was a common occurrence and not a problem at all. The man left with his dignity intact (完好无损的) and, no doubt, with a renewed sense of loyalty to that grocery-store chain. When it was my turn, I made note of the name on his nametag, and when I got home, I sent an e-mail to the manager of the store praising the employee for his kindness and customer service. I got a return e-mail that day with thanks from the manager, letting me know that my note would be included in the employee’ s file and noted each time he was up for a raise or promotion. While his act of kindness made a positive impact on the life of someone who was struggling that day, I hope my act of kindness at least had a positive effect on that young man’s career — and possibly his paycheck. 24．What happened when the elderly man was using his SNAP card? A．He forgot his PIN code. B．He was over his monthly budget. C．The card reader was broken. D．He got angry with the store’s service. 25．Which words can best describe the young man? A．Helpful and considerate. B．Clever and loyal. C．Generous and energetic. D．Brave and diligent. 26．What did the author do for the young man?. A．She praised him on the spot. B．She promoted him to be the manager. C．She gave him a pay raise. D．She informed the manager of his deed. 27．What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A．To call on people to help each other. B．To show her gratitude to the young man. C．To share a story about the act of kindness. D．To express her sympathy for the elderly man. C Never judge a book by its cover — even if the cover doesn’t say much at all. The first thing customers see when they walk into the Strand Book Store in Manhattan is a table of nameless books with covers wrapped like Christmas presents and titles replaced by general descriptions. The store calls it “Blind Date With a Book”. People love it, Paul Colarusso, the communications director for the Strand, said, “We put it right at the front of the store because it quite literally stops people in their tracks.” “People are attracted to the element of surprise, which focuses attention and creates a dopamine (多巴胺) response,” Mr. Tobin, an associate professor at Case Western University, said. Meanwhile, stores have found a new way to sell books that are overlooked because they are not new, best-selling or penned by a famous author. Much like real dating, there’s no perfect science, and an element of trial and error is involved. Fantasy and mystery books work well. Forgotten books from the past are great too. When in Rome by Sarah Adams is disguised as “Freshly Baked Slow Bum Rom-com”. Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade becomes a “You’ve Got Mail-esque Romance”. But not all bookstores have embraced the trend. Dozens of bookstore owners around the country said they did not know what “Blind Date Books” were. Others didn’t participate in the trend because store policy prohibits returns or exchanges which are necessary if someone has picked up a book they have already read. On a warm Friday morning, the bookstore is packed. About half the customers stop at the “Blind Date Books” display by the entrance, closely inspecting the neatly drawn, wrapped covers. Heather Toner buys one. “Throwing caution to the wind and letting someone else choose for me just sort of feels like a nice change of pace,” Ms. Toner, a reader, said. “I never went on a real blind date. ‘Blind Date With a Book’ is kind of my speed. ” 28．What makes “Blind Date With a Book” appealing to customers according to Mr. Tobin? A．The ability to choose specific titles. B．The attractiveness of the packaging. C．The excitement of an unforeseen choice. D．The identification of dopamine response. 29．How does “Blind Date With a Book” benefit bookstores? A．It enriches customers’ choices. B．It satisfies readers’ special needs. C．It simplifies shopping procedures. D．It helps market less-known books. 30．What does the underlined word “embraced” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Overlooked. B．Blocked C．Guided. D．Adopted. 31．Which words best describe Heather Toner’s attitude towards “Blind Date With a Book”? A．Open and adventurous B．Cautious and reserved. C．Tolerant and indecisive. D．Dismissive and skeptical. D Environmental DNA (eDNA) has become a crucial tool in ecological research over recent years. By analyzing water, soil, or other environmental materials for DNA pieces, researchers can tell that thousands of different species have been in an area without having to observe the actual species passing through. To date, this eDNA process has mostly been employed to detect marine (海洋的) creatures, insects, and other wildlife. However, according to a paper published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, this technique could just as easily be applied to spot humans. An international team of researchers based at the University of Florida, USA, demonstrated that human genomic (基因组的) information can be easily detected in eDNA samples collected from water, sand, and even the air. While this capability could have practical applications, such as aiding in the search for missing persons or monitoring public health, the researchers highlight significant moral concerns. These concerns include the lack of agreement from individuals for their DNA to be collected, potential breaches (侵犯) of privacy, and the risk of genetic information being used for commercial purposes. This issue is particularly challenging for the field of eDNA, which relies on open and easily accessible data. “It is standard practice in science to make these data publicly available. However, this also means that if human information is not screened out, anyone could access this information,” says senior author Professor David Duffy, a wildlife disease genomics researcher at the University of Florida. “This raises issues around permission. Do we need to ask permission to collect these samples? Should we bring in some controls to remove human genetic data?” “Whenever we make a technological advancement, there are both beneficial and concerning potential uses. This situation is no different,” Duffy explains. “We are raising these issues early so that policymakers and society have adequate time to develop suitable guidelines.” 32．What is the primary use of eDNA in ecological research? A．Identifying species present in an area. B．Monitoring species evolution processes. C．Improving living conditions for wildlife. D．Sampling insects directly in their habitats. 33．Why is the accessibility of eDNA data a potential problem? A．It ignores practical applications of eDNA data. B．It may lead to unchecked genetic engineering. C．It could result in misuse of human genetic data. D．It raises concerns about wildlife disease research. 34．What does Duffy suggest people concerned do? A．To develop potential applications. B．To sample genetic information. C．To highlight advanced technology. D．To establish appropriate regulations. 35．What is the best title for the text? A．eDNA:  A New Frontier in Ecological Monitoring B．eDNA: Human Detection Meets Privacy Challenges C．eDNA: A Breakthrough in Marine Research Techniques D．eDNA: Transforming Our Comprehension of Biodiversity 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic (地道的). 36 People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity. 37 There home cooking is often the last way to show their identity, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was accused of trying to take advantage of positive feelings about Jamaica. His meal product had a Jamaican name, but was unlike genuine Jamaican cooking. However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity. 38 It’s common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting — restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures. 39 while large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries — China, India, Italy, Mexico and more — these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries. For instance, regional specialties in Mexico are assumed quite different from what people eat in America. But in essence, they can both be authentic examples of Mexican food. A more controversial view of authenticity was stated by American Chef Andrew Zimmern, who claimed that he could present Chinese dishes in a more authentic way than existing restaurants. Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern. 40 So, while food and identity are closely linked, it makes sense to give a second thought about the whole idea of authenticity. A．But is this a good thing? B．It’s a symbol of cultural diversity, C．That means adaptation is unavoidable. D．They can generate severe consequences. E．And unreasonable expectations are the core. F．It’s particularly true for migrant communities. G．Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Nicholas learns at a different pace than his peers.

The atmosphere was lively and busy, with the noise of plates and the sound of conversations creating a warm and inviting setting. The smell of freshly cooked food floated through the air, inviting everyone to try a little bit of everything. The buffet was a feast for the senses, with steaming trays of dishes from all over the world. The kids were particularly thrilled at the sight of the dessert section, which they had been eagerly longing for all week. Their eyes widening at the array of cakes, ice creams, and pastries, they quickly made plans to sample everything. As we sat down to enjoy our meals, chatting cheerfully about the various food options, my husband’s attention was drawn to an elderly man standing by the chocolate milk dispenser (分液器). The man seemed determined, but his hands were shaking, making it difficult for him to fill two glasses. My husband watched him for a moment, a concerned look on his face. “Now, how on earth is he going to carry that milk back to his table?” he wondered aloud, his eyes narrowing in thought. He noticed the man’s expression of concentration and effort, and a wave of sympathy made him restless. The kids, absorbed in their plates, hadn’t noticed, but my husband couldn’t look away. I glanced at my husband and raised my eyebrows (眉毛) with a knowing smile. He immediately understood my silent message. The next moment, without a word, he got up from his seat and approached the elderly gentleman. I watched as he gently placed a hand on the man’s shoulder, offering a kind smile. I felt a warm wave of pride and admiration for my husband. His kind-hearted nature always managed to shine through in moments like these, making me realize how lucky I was to have him by my side. 注意： 1. 续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: “May I help you with that?” my husband asked kindly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As he sat down, he gave me a small nod, and we continued our meal. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2024~2025学年度第一学期高三第二次模拟·英语（菁英班） 参考答案（含听力原文） 1.c 【原文】W:Jack,have you downloaded the book to your e-reader?

再次向他的老顾客保证，这是经常发生的事，根本不是问题。这个人带着完整的尊严离开了， 毫无疑问，他对这家连锁杂货店又有了一种忠诚感)”可知，这个年轻的收银员不仅帮助老人 解决了问题，还非常体贴了保护了他的自尊心。由此推知，他既乐于助人，又体贴周到。故 选A。 26.细节理解题。根据第六段“When it was my turn,I made note of the name on his nametag,and when I got home,I sent an e-mail to the manager of the store praising the employee for his kindness and customer service.(轮到我的时候，我记下了他名牌上的名字。回到家后，我给店 经理发了一封电子邮件，称赞他的善良和对顾客的服务)”可知，作者将这个收银员的行为告 诉了经理。故选D。 27.推理判断题。根据最后一段While his act of kindness made a positive impact on the life of someone who was struggling that day,I hope my act of kindness at least had a positive effect on that young man's career一and possibly his paycheck.(虽然他的善举对那个正在挣扎的人的生 活产生了积极的影响，但我希望我的善举至少对那个年轻人的职业生涯产生了积极的影响 一可能还有他的薪水)”和文章内容可推知，本文主要是为了分享一个关于善举的故事。故 答案第3页，共8页 选C。 28.C29.D30.D31.A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。这篇文章介绍了曼哈顿的斯特兰书店推出的“盲选书籍”活动。 该活动将书籍的封面包装起来，只留下简单描述，让顾客在没有任何先入为主印象的情况下 挑选书籍。文章讨论了这种活动带来的顾客体验、其背后的心理学原理，以及这一趋势对书 店销售的影响。 28.细节理解题。根据第二段People are attracted to the element of surprise,and the element of surprise focuses attention and creates a dopamine response(人们被惊喜元素所吸引，而惊喜元素 能够集中注意力并引发多巴胺反应)可知，顾客更喜欢“盲选书籍是因为他们在这种不确定 性中体验到刺激和惊喜，激发了多巴胺的反应，产生兴奋感。故选C。 29.细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句Meanwhile,stores have found a new way to sell books that are overlooked because they are not new,best-selling or penned by a famous author.( 时，书店已经找到了一种销售那些因为非新书、非畅销书或非名家所著而被忽视的书籍的新 方法)可知，这种活动帮助销售那些被忽视的书籍，而这些书籍往往因为不是畅销书或不是 出自名作家之手而被忽视。故选D。 30.词义猜测题。根据第四段第二句话和第三句话Dozens of bookstore owners around the country said they did not know what"Blind Date Books were.Others didn't participate in the trend because store policy prohibits returns or exchanges which are necessary if someone has picked up a book they have already read..(全国数十家书店店主表示，他们不知道“图书盲选”是 什么。还有一些书店没有参与这一潮流，因为书店政策禁止退货或换货，而如果顾客选到了 己经读过的书，退货或换货是必要的)”可知，不是所有的书店都能欣然接受这种趋势，D选 项中的adopt意思是“正式通过”，符合语意。故选D。 3l.推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句Throwing caution to the wind and letting someone else choose for me just sort of feels like a nice change of pace,"Ms.Toner,a reader,said."I never went on a real blind date..Blind Date With a Book'is kind of my speed.'”(读者托纳(Toner)女士 说：“不顾一切让别人替我选择，感觉节奏很不错，算是一种新鲜的改变。我从来没有参加 过真正的约会。与书相约'正合我的节奏。)可知，Heather Toner认为让别人为自己挑选 书籍是一种“节奏的变化”，从她的话中可以看出，她认为这种方式感到轻松且充满期待，甚 至将其比作一种适合自己的“盲约”，说明她对这种体验持一种积极、开放的态度，同时又抱 着试一试的心态。故选A。 32.A33.C34.D35.B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了环境DNA(DNA)在生态研究中的应用，特别 是其在检测人类方面的潜力，同时提出了相关的道德和隐私问题。 32.细节理解题。根据第一段“Environmental DNA(eDNA)has become a crucial tool in ecological research over recent years.By

through.(近年来，环境DNA(eDNA)已成 为生态学研究的重要工具。通过分析水、土壤或其他环境材料的DNA片段，研究人员无需 观察实际经过的物种，就能判断出某个地区曾经有数千种不同的物种)”可知，eDNA在生态 研究中的主要用途是识别某一地区存在的物种。故选A项。 33.推理判断题。根据第三段中These concerns include the lack of agreement from individuals for their DNA to be collected,potential breaches (of privacy,and the risk of genetic information being used for commercial purposes..(这些担忧包括没有得到个人对其DNA收集的 同意，隐私可能遭到侵犯，以及遗传信息被用于商业目的的风险)'和第四段中However,.this 答案第4页，共8页 also means that if human information is not screened out,anyone could access this information, (然而，这也意味着，如果人类信息没有被筛选出来，任何人都可以访问这些信息)”以及Ts raises issues around permission.Do we need to ask permission to collect these samples?Should we bring in some controls to remove human genetic data?(这引发了关于许可的问题。我们是否 需要征得许可才能收集这些样本？我们是否应该引入一些控制措施来删除人类遗传数据？)” 可知，DNA数据的可访问性是一个潜在问题，因为它可能导致人类遗传数据的滥用。故选 C项。 34.细节理解题。根据最后一段中Duff)的话Ve are raising these issues early so that policymakers and society have adequate time to develop suitable guidelines.(我们提前提出这些 问题，以便政策制定者和社会有足够的时间来制定合适的指南)'可知，Duffy建议相关人士 制定适当的法规。故选D项。 35.主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中However,according to a paper published in Nature Ecology&Evolution,.this technique could just as easily be applied to spot humans.(然而，根据发 表在《自然·生态与进化》杂志上的一篇论文，这项技术同样可以很容易地应用于检测人类)” 和第三段中These concerns include the lack of agreement from individuals for their DNA to be collected,potential breaches (of privacy,and the risk of genetic information being used for commercial purposes..(这些担忧包括没有得到个人对其DNA收集的同意，隐私可能遭到侵犯， 以及遗传信息被用于商业目的的风险)'可知，文章主要介绍了DNA在检测人类方面的应用 及其引发的隐私和道德问题，故B项eDNA:Human Detection Meets Privacy Challenges(eDNA：人类检测遭遇隐私挑战)”最能概括文章内容，适合做文章标题。故选B 项。 36.D 37.A38.C39.C40.B41.D42.A43.B 44.B 45.D46.A47.B48.A49.C50.C

Now let me tell you what i've been doing in recent years. In twenty fifteen, I retired from my post as a designer for a furniture company, and since then i've been working as a volunteer. In twenty seventeen, I joined Green woodpath er, an organization that promotes environmental protection. At the beginning, I mostly worked in public square near the west railway station, helping the traffic police and give directions to passengers. Then my work focus changed when our city adopted the new tobacco control rules. In june twenty eighteen, I began a new task persuading people not to smoke in public places. In addition to the railway station, I have been going to places where there are many restaurants and bars. We work in groups of three and try to stop people from smoking. Fortunately, most smokers are supportive and put out their cigarettes when we ask them to, but that was not the case. In the early days, some smokers could become quite violent. I like being a volunteer. The work is exciting and makes me feel Young. IT has now become part of my life. Well, now let me tell you what i've been doing in recent years.
