Instead of relaxing by the pools,we had spent the previous day training for our big scuba ( trip.We took a course with written tests and did two exhausting pool practices.Now,the moment had arrived.Our instructor was about to place the helmets (on our heads.I took a deep breath.This 西安中学高三年级英语试题第4页共12页 ▣▣ CS扫描全能王 ▣3亿人都在用的扫描App 4 was it-my chance to connect with Kavya through a new experience,something we could finally share. But suddenly,Kavya pulled my arm.Her face showed the same worried look she had during math homework.I could sense her emotions tightening under her diving suit.Just as the instructor approached, she whispered,"Dad,can I quit?"The waves sounded louder,the gear (heavier.Surprisingly,I didn't say what I normally would:"Quitting is not an option!"I even stopped myself from thinking, "But this was my plan."Trying to give her a gentle hug in the heavy gear only resulted in me splashing water all over her and making us both laugh awkwardly. When she was little,connecting with Kavya was effortless.I knew everything about her,and she always joined my adventures with pure excitement.But as she grew older,she discovered her own interests,drifting away from mine.What followed were sighs,eye-rolls,and half-hearted"I guess so" replies.I had hoped this scuba course would bring us closer again.I didn't expect her quitting to hit me so hard or so suddenly. Even without the dive,we enjoyed our vacation.We swam,collected seashells,and played word games.In those slow,quiet moments,I realized joy isn't only in big adventures.It wasn't the moment of closeness I had imagined-but it turned out to be exactly the one we needed. 24.Why did the author train hard for the diving trip?

C A team led by the University of Cambridge have engineered a solar-powered"artificial leaf'that 西安中学高三年级英语试题第5页共12页 ▣▣ CS扫描全能王 ▣3亿人都在用的扫描APp .5 could eventually help this vital industry move away from fossil fuels.Their breakthrough involves a new device that brings together light-absorbing organic polymers and bacterial enzymes()to transform sunlight,water,and carbon dioxide into formate,a clean fuel that can power additional chemical reactions. This"artificial leaf'copies photosynthesis(光合作用)，the natural process plants use to turn sunlight into energy and operates entirely on its own power.Unlike previous designs that relied on poisonous or unstable light absorbers,this new model uses non-poisonous materials,runs more efficiently,and remains stable without extra additives.This marks the first instance where these non- poisonous materials have served as the light-catching component in such a bio-hybrid system,preparing for a new generation of eco-friendly artificial leaves. The chemical industry remains a cornerstone of the global economy,producing a vast range of goods-from medicines to plastics,paints,electronics,and cleaning agents."If we're going to build a cyclic,sustainable economy,the chemical industry is a big,complex problem that we must address," said Professor Erwin Reisner from the University of Cambridge's Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry,who led the research. Tests showed the artificial leaf produced high currents and achieved near-perfect efficiency in directing electrons into fuel-making reactions.The device successfully ran for over 24 hours:more than twice as long as previous designs.The researchers are hoping to further develop their designs to extend the service life of the device and adapt it so it can produce different types of chemical products. "We've shown it's possible to create solar-powered devices that are not only efficient and durable but also free from poisonous or unsustainable components,"said Reisner."This could be a fundamental platform for producing green fuels and chemicals in future-it's a real opportunity to do some exciting and important chemistry. 28.Wh is the main purpose of the artificial leaf described in paragraph 1? A.To produce clean fuel. B.To create new materials. C.To cut carbon emissions. D.To absorb more sunlight. 29.What makes the artificial leaf different from earlier designs? A It depends on costly and rare additives. B.ft combines natural and artificial materials. It rroduces electricity and chemical fuels. D.IL relies on safer and more efficient materials. 30.What can we learn from the last paragraph? 西安中学高三年级英语试题第6页共12页 ▣▣ CS扫描全能王 问3亿人都在用的扫描APp A.The devices are still lack of efficiency. B.The potential is limited to lab applications. C.The technology might have a bright future. D.The material choice may be a major concern. 31.Which can be a suitable title for the text? A.Materials from the Plants Leaf B.Solar Leaf for Green Chemistry C.Fossil Fuels in Chemical Industry D.Sustainable Challenges in Economy D Have you ever wondered why certain songs or paintings feel deeply satisfying?Language expert Jay Keyser's research finds that repetition makes art speak to us. Artists like jazz musician Duke Ellington and painter Andy Warhol purposefully use repetition- not simply as copying,but as a clever"same,but different"skill.In Ellington's Satin Doll,for example, the rhythm repeats while the notes stay high or low,and the song's words mirror this pattern.Warhol's soup cans appear alike at first sight,yet each design changes a little.This skill called"same/except"by Jay Keyser in his book Play it again,Sam-makes art feel richer and more pleasant to our brains. Interestingly,discovering repetition brings much more.Consider a photograph of the US city of Albuquerque that is often discussed for its meaning.Look closer,and you may find that a dog sits in the center with a street sign shadow to its right copying its shape.Recognizing this hidden pattern,as Keyser suggests,repays us with unexpected pleasure and more.Training our eyes to notice such patterns -whether in poetry,paintings or songs-unlocks new meauing. Why does repetition create such a connection?According to Keyser,science offers an answer:the mere exposure effect.Just as a baby grows fond of a mother's face through repeated sights,we naturally develop a liking for familiar patterns.Advertisers use this by repeating product names to build trust. Artists harness it too-Warhol's repeated cans or a song's repeated catchy parts make us feel comforted and connected. Keyser shows great art works with the brain's makeup.When artists repeat certain parts with changes,the art is in line with how our minds seek order,expect-patterns,and gain joy from "finding" connections-though we are not aware of it.By studying how artists skillfully apply the"same/except" skill across mediums,and by connecting these choices with science,we gain the key to admiring creativity's universal magic.This makes everyday experiences with music,paintings,and words much richer. 32.What does the "same/except"skill focus on? 西安中学高二年级英语试题第7页共12页 ■ CS扫描全能王 可3亿人都在用的扫描App 7 A.Non-traditional artistic styles. B.Combining different art forms. C.Repetition with slight variations. D.Breaking all patterns completely. 33.What does the example of the Albuquerque photo highlight? A.Fun designs attract more attention B.Admiring street art lifts one's spirits C Repetition enriches art experiences. D.Famous art deserves lasting discussion. 34.What does the underlined wordharness"in paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Take advantage of. B.Turn down. C.Have control of. D.Make out. 35.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A.Art sometimes matches our mindset. B.Science explains artistic techniques. C.Artists use repetition unconsciously. D.Creativity is the key to admiring art. 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。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 When Marie Benton first moved to London in 2008,joining a choir (helped her fit in the new environment. 36 With her tireless efforts,the Choir with No Name (TCWNN)was officially born.
