But the little dog wasn't always so familiar with the big city.Caceres'new children's book, Hello,Tobi!,is a celebration of Tobi's walks in the parks when he first anived in New York.Tobi was born in Valencia,Venezuela.Back then,Caceres was planning to become a civil engineer. "While I was studying,I started illustrating,"she said."And I started illustrating Tobi."Without ever taking a single art class,Caceres graduated with an engineering degree-but she pursued work as an artist. In 2016,Caceres moved to the United States and found a position as a textile designer."I was designing for other people here.I didn't have time to do anything for myself,"she said.Worse of all she had to leave Tobi back in Venezuela.She missed him immensely,and she was eager for a creative outlet to help her through all the transitions she was going through.So she started a project: Every day,for a whole year,she would draw a different dog.She called the project"A Dog A Day Keeps the Stress Away",and the first dog she drew in January 2018 was,of course,Tobi. The illustrations took off.Soon,Caceres started getting invited to draw people's pets and paint murals for cafes and vet clinics.Best of all,after more than two years apart,she saved enough to bring Tobi to New York."The moment he saw me,he started crying,"she recalled.Hello,Tobi!is a portrait of this period. In real life and in the story,Tobi greets all the different people at the park-but he has a clear favorite:his own family."He loves me and I just always love him back,"Caceres said. 4.Why did Caceres say Tobi is"a true New Yorker"? A.Because Tobi has been raised up in New York. B.Because Tobi has found a lot of local friends here. C.Because Tobi has adapted to the noisy urban environment. D.Because Tobi has got familiar with various roads in this city. 5.Why did Caceres start"A Dog A Day Keeps the Stress Away"? A.To improve her skills as a textile designer. B.To create a new children's book about dogs. C.To.remember her fond memories in Venezuela. D.To cope with the changes and stress in her new life. 6.What happened to Caceres after the success of her illustrations? A.She opened her own art studio in New York City. B.She earned enough money to reunite with her dog C.She became a full-time writer of children's books D.She decided to move back to Venezuela permanently. 7.Which of the following can best describe Caceres? A.Positive and artistic. B.Talented and generous. C.Creative and independent. D.Brave and cooperative. 高二(14班)3月月考英语试题第2页，共8页 C In the crystal-clear waters near Talamone,Italy,an extraordinary sight awaits beneath the Mediterranean Sea's surface.Mermaids,towering giants and enormous sculptural eyes gaze upward from the ocean floor,creating an otherworldly underwater gallery that serves a crucial environmental purpose.This unique initiative represents one innovative fisherman's determined effort to protect vital fishing grounds from the disastrous impact of commercial fishing nets that threaten marine ecosystems. The underwater sculpture garden operates on a simple yet effective principle that strategically placed artistic installations (work alongside concrete blocks to physically obstruct and break the fishing nets that destroy marine life.These massive fishing nets,dragged across the seafloor by commercial vessels,destroy delicate underwater habitats and deplete fish populations that local fishing communities depend upon for their livelihood. The project has evolved beyond its initial conservation goals to become a cooperative effort involving local educational institutions and young artists.Students from a high school in nearby Grosseto have actively participated in the initiative,creating specialized sculptural works designed to serve two purposes.These student-crafted pieces not only contribute to the anti-fishing barrier system but also provide alternative habitats for marine creatures.By offering the marine species a safe shelter within the sculptural installations,the project helps reduce their vulnerability to illegal fishing practices while supporting natural population recovery. The fisherman behind the initiative recognized that traditional regulatory approaches alone were not enough to fulfill the environmental commitment.And the sculptures themselves have captured international attention while serving practical conservation purposes.Each piece sunk to the Mediterranean floor contributes to a growing underwater museum that tells the story of local efforts to preserve marine biodiversity. As the sculpture garden continues to expand,it serves as an inspiring example of how art and environmental protection can work together to create lasting positive change in marine ecosystems. 8.What is the purpose of the underwater sculptures? A.To protect underwater ecosystems. B.To promote local fishing industry. C.To raise environmental awareness. D.To create an attractive artistic gallery. 9.What does the underlined word"deplete"in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Carefully manage. B.Gradually relocate. C.Significantly reduce. D.Successfully protect. 10.What can we learn about the project in Paragraph 3? A.The project calls for more support from students and artists. B.The project has expanded into a community-based initiative. C.The sculptures have managed to stop practices of illegal fishing. D.The sculptures show superior artistic skills of the young participants. 11.What is the best title for the passage? A.Art in the depths:A New Fashion in Italy B.Sculpting a Shield:Art Meets Conservation C.From Gallery to Fishery:The Power of Students D.Guarding the Deep:Traditional Ways of Protection 高二(14班)3月月考英语试题第3页，共8页 D Scientists have long explored to turn the mechanical energy of raindrops into electricity However,traditional droplet (generators have problems like being beavy,expensive,and hard to make in large sizes.A team from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has created a new floating droplet electricity generator.It uses water in its structure,making it lighter,cheaper and more eco-friendly. Unlike most existing generators that use solid platforms and metal electrode ()the new device floats on water.Water here works both as a support and a conductive electrode.This special design cuts the device's weight by about 80%and its cost by nearly half,while it still produces as much electricity as traditional systems. When a raindrop hits the floating layer of the generator,the water below takes in the impact and helps the drop spread out.At the same time,ions (in the water carry electric charges.Together, these things let the generator make about 250 volts of electricity from one raindrop.The generator also has smart drainage holes.These holes use water's surface tension to remove extra water without letting it flow back,so the generator works stably.It can also work well in different temperatures and salt levels,even in natural lake water.Its special structure makes it strong enough for bad environments. Another advantage of this new technology is its capacity for large-scale production. Researchers built a 0.3-square-meter model,which is much bigger than earlier ones.It can power 50 LEDs at the same time and charge small batteries in minutes.This means it could be used to power small electronic devices and sensors on lakes or near the sea,without taking up any land. Professor Wanlin Guo,who led the study,said this "nature-integrated"design is a big step for cheap and light hydropower systems.These systems can work with solar and wind power.Besides making electricity,the technology can also help monitor water environments,like powering sensors that check water quality.Of course,there are still challenges.For example,raindrops fall unevenly, and the generator's long-term outdoor use needs more testing.But this floating generator is still an important progress for practical hydropower use. 12.What is the main advantage of the floating generator over traditional ones? A.It uses eco-friendly metal electrodes. B.It produces higher voltage per raindrop. C.It works efficiently in desert environments.D.It reduces weight and cost significantly. 13.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about? A.The materials used to make the new generator. B.The working environment of the new generator. C.The working principle and strengths of the new generator. D.The differences between the new generator and traditional ones. 14.The 0.3-square-meter model in Paragraph 4 demonstrates A.the generator's powerful capacity B.the larger size of traditional versions C.the reliability of outdoor operations D.the ability to monitor the water quality 15.What is the author's attitude toward the new generator? A.Doubtful about its practical value. B.Unconcerned about its technical details. C.Cautiously optimistic about its future use. D.Confident that it will replace other energy sources 高二(14班)3月月考英语试题第4页，共8页 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Opening your acceptance email and learning you'll attend university in the United States is one of life's most exciting moments.Immediately,you may start imagining all the things you want to do upon arrival.16 Follow these tips to make the most of your final months at home.

The news felt like a physical blow to David,a quiet college student who had grown up reading in the cozy corners of the shop.The smell of old paper was the smell of his childhood,witnessing his growth.He couldn't imagine the street without its warm,inviting light.When the news spread throughout the entire neighborhood,worry was written all over everyone's faces. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen.Representing a large development company,she had made a generous offer to buy the building.She saw the space not for its shelves of stories,but for its potential as a trendy cafe,a profitable upgrade.To her,it was just business. Mr.Hopkins,now old and tired,felt defeated."Maybe it's time,David,"he sighed,his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel."The world has moved on." On the day of the final meeting,David arrived early,his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store:a bookmark from his tenth birthday,a receipt from the first book he had bought with his own money,a photograph of himself and Mr.Hopkins taken during a summer reading program.He walked to the children's section and drew a small,worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.The cover was faded,the pages yellowed,but the spine still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m.She wasted no time getting down to business,reviewing the contract with Mr.Hopkins.David watched from the sidelines,his heart pounding in his chest. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150词左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 He couldn't let this happen-not without trying to make his voice heard.
