D．It is one of the best eco-arts festivals in South Africa. 【答案】11．A 12．B 13．C 【原文】 The annual whale festival in Hermanus, South Africa, starts today. The coastal town, located on the Western Cape about 1.5 hours from Cape Town, is famous for whale watching. It is one of the best locations in the world to witness large numbers of southern right whales moving in the season. The festival, which is the only eco-arts festival in South Africa, attracts over 130,000 visitors. Hermanus also has the world’s only “Whale Crier”, whose job is to go around and tell people where they may see whales — with his horn. Fortunately, the timing of the festival almost guarantees a whale sighting — as close as a few meters from shore! The whales are, of course, the main attraction of the festival, but many more terrific activities are available. The seaside environment, with the surrounding mountains, makes an ideal setting to enjoy the festival’s musical performances and fantastic seafood. For those who desire more adventure, there’s open water swimming, a night run and sports challenges. Other activities include an old car show, arts and crafts stalls and entertainment for kids. With something for everyone, what more could one ask for?Questions: 1. What is the reason for so many visitors choosing to watch whales in Hermanus? 2. What does Whale Crier do at the festival? 3. What can we learn about the whale festival? （24-25高二下·上海闵行·期中）听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。 14．A．Weak bones. B．Loose teeth. C．Skin problems. D．Heart diseases. 15．A．Having food rich in vitamin. B．Walking midday in the sun with no suncream. C．Taking vitamin D pills every day. D．Wearing darker coloured clothes and sunhats. 16．A．To analyze the common causes of lack of vitamin D． B．To encourage people to be exposed to the sun for vitamin D． C．To emphasize the importance of vitamin D in one’s health. D．To introduce some different ways to gain vitamin D． 【答案】14．C 15．B 16．B 【原文】 In the dead of winter, we don’t typically think about spending time outdoors, but according to many medical experts, we should. The sun is our greatest source of vitamin D, which is essential for good health. This important nutrient strengthens bones and teeth and is linked to the prevention of heart disease, cancer and many other life-threatening diseases. In contrast, a lack of vitamin D can lead to weak bones and teeth as well as other health problems. The recommended daily requirement of vitamin D is 400-600 IU. But how can we get it? In summer, people with dark brown eyes and darker skin change sunlight into adequate amount of vitamin D from just 15 minutes outside without suncream. Even during winter, just a 10-minute walk midday can keep the body’s vitamin D at healthy levels. During brief winter walks, we receive the greatest benefits when we wear no suncream and expose as much skin to the sun as possible. However, the vitamin can also be obtained from foods such as sea fish, tofu and eggs. Vitamin D pills are another option, but consult a doctor first. Questions: 14. Which of the following is not among the diseases related to lack of Vitamin D according to the passage? 15. How can we maintain vitamin D at healthy levels during winter according to the passage? 16. What is the main purpose of the passage? （24-25高二下·上海闵行·期中）听下面一段较长对话，回答以下小题。 17．A．She wants to find a topic for her research. B．She tries to help the man with his paper. C．She hopes to learn how to write a paper. D．She plans to work on a similar topic. 18．A．In 1813. B．In 1826. C．In 1839. D．In 1856. 19．A．They are mainly grown for the domestic market. B．They were the first plant to be planted in England. C．They were introduced to China from Australia. D．They are kept warm in large plastic houses. 20．A．Growth of domestic economy in Australia. B．Export and import of bananas in Australia. C．History of banana cultivation in Australia. D．Role of agriculture in Australian economy. 【答案】17．A 18．D 19．A 20．C 【原文】W: Hi. Martin. How are you going with your Australian studies research paper? M: Oh, good. I’ve finished it actually. W: Lucky you. I’m still trying to find an interesting topic. M: Well… after some consideration I decided to look at the history of banana growing in Australia. W: (surprised) Banana growing! M: Yes, banana growing! W: Fascinating, I’m sure. M: Well. I bet there are a few things you didn’t know about bananas, such as the fact that bananas were the first plants ever to be grown. W: So where were these bananas first grown? M: According to my research, the Cavendish banana, which is the first type to be cultivated here, actually originated in China but it had a fairly roundabout route before it went to Australia. W: You mean they didn’t go straight from China to Australia? M: No, they didn’t. It seems that in 1826, bananas were taken from South China to England. Thirty years later, they were brought here in Australia. W: It sounds quite interesting. But are they hard to grow? M: If you plant them in rich soil and give them plenty of water at the beginning of summer, they should be well advanced by the beginning of winter. But in a country like England, they’re hard to grow. W: But in Australia, it’s not difficult? M: No, but even here, the growers put plastic bags around the bunches to keep the temperature. W: So do we export lots of bananas overseas, to Europe and Asia for instance? M: Well, strangely enough no. They are most grown for the domestic market, which is surprising when you think that we grow an enormous number of bananas each year. W: Yes, thank you for all that information. I’m sure your paper will go really well. M: Let’s hope so. Questions: 17. Why does the woman start this conversation with Martin? 18. When were bananas first brought to Australia? 19. Which of the following about Australian bananas is true according to Martin? 20. What might be the focus of Martin’s research paper?

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. （24-25高二下·上海闵行·期中）Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Why Everyone Is Lonely One of the reasons why we tend not to make friends as often as we might come down to a powerful background idea 21 full destructive force we may not even be aware of: the belief that any decent person already has all the friends they need. Somewhere in our minds, the notion has been lodged that only very sad and incapable people would — at this stage in their lives — still have a space in their social agenda for a newcomer. Almost everyone else — anyone worthy 22 (know), talented, interesting or good — would long ago have acquired the gang to which they are now continually and hopelessly connected. 23 this punishing idea misses is the extent to which a feeling of loneliness and disenchantment (幻灭感) is in reality an ongoing and universal possibility, in no way limited to 24 of reduced appeal. Right now, the enchanting actor is (despite the crowds) perhaps lonely; 25 is the celebrated concert pianist, the renowned biologist, the skilled airline pilot, the miraculous neurosurgeon and that rather nice-looking person you have just spotted in the corner of the room 26 (laugh) animatedly with a group of fashionable companions. It’s open to anyone of sensitivity and charm to fail to find the right sort of allies, 27 (outgrow) their friends from school or university, to not have landed on agreeable spirits at work and therefore to be spending a lot of their evenings on their own. And we can know this for certain of other people 28 we know it from a very reliable source: ourselves. Other people who know us at a social level almost certainly find it hard to imagine the degree to which we are exposed to loneliness and 29 we would still like to locate a wise, tender, funny and interesting new friend. The next time we spot an interesting person, we 30 stop disobey the moral of our own lives. We don’t have exactly the right people in our social circle — and nor, most probably, do they. So we can afford to drop our false background ideas of social life — and go up and say hello. 【答案】 21．whose 22．to be known 23．what 24．those 25．so 26．laughing 27．to have outgrown 28．because 29．how much 30．should 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要介绍的是现代社会中人们普遍感到孤独的原因，并分析了这种现象背后的心理误区，最后提出了改变这一现状的建议。 21．考查定语从句。句意：我们之所以不常交朋友，其中一个原因可以归结为一种强大的背景观念，其破坏力之强甚至可能超出我们的意识：即任何体面的人都已经有了他们所需要的所有朋友。此处为关系词引导的定语从句，先行词idea与空后的名词force之间为所属关系，需用关系代词whose。故填whose。 22．考查动词不定式。句意：几乎其他所有人——任何值得尊敬的、有才华的、有趣的或优秀的人——很久以前就会获得他们现在不断且无可救药地联系在一起的团伙。根据句意，know与逻辑主语anyone之间为被动关系，所以此处为固定搭配be worthy to be done，所以此处需用不定式的被动形式to be known。故填to be known。 23．考查主语从句。句意：这种严苛的观念忽略了一个事实，即孤独感和幻灭感实际上是一种持续且普遍的可能性，并不局限于那些吸引力较低的人群。此处为连接词引导的主语从句，从句中缺少missed的宾语，指的是事物，所以此处使用连接代词what。故填what。 24．考查代词。句意：同上。此空前为介词of，且无提示词，所以此处使用代词作宾语，结合句意，此处需用those指代“引力较低的人”，表示复数概念。故填those。 25．考查连词。句意：此刻，那位迷人的演员（尽管身边总是围着人群）可能感到孤独；同样如此的还有那位著名的音乐会钢琴家、杰出的生物学家、技术娴熟的航空公司飞行员、神奇的神经外科医生，以及你刚刚在房间角落看到的那个正与一群时尚伙伴热情交谈的好看的人。此处为“so/neither/nor+系动词/助动词+主语”结构，表示“与上文的情况相同”，上文中的内容为肯定句，所以此处使用so。故填so。 26．考查现在分词。句意：同上。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，laugh与先行词person之间为主动关系，所以此处使用现在分词形式，故填laughing。 27．考查不定式完成式。句意：任何一个敏感且有魅力的人都可能无法找到合适的伙伴，可能已经超越了学校或大学时期的朋友，可能在工作中没有遇到志趣相投的人，因此不得不独自度过许多夜晚。该句为“it作形式主语，不定式作真正主语”结构，此处与空后的“to not have landed”以及“to be spending”为并列关系，所以此处使用动词不定式形式，结合句意，outgrow发生在谓语动词之前，所以此处使用不定式的完成式to have outgrown。故填to have outgrown。 28．考查原因状语从句。句意：我们可以从一个非常可靠的消息来源——我们自己——得知这一点，因此我们也可以确定其他人的情况。此处为连词连接两个句子，结合句意，上下文之间为因果关系，所以此处为because引导原因状语从句。故填because。 29．考查宾语从句。句意：其他在社交层面上认识我们的人几乎很难想象我们有多么孤独，以及我们仍然多么渴望找到一位睿智、温柔、幽默且有趣的新朋友。此处为连接词引导的宾语从句作imagine的宾语，结合上文的“the degree to which we are exposed to loneliness”可知，此处应为how much引导宾语从句，表示程度。故填how much。 30．考查情态动词。句意：下次我们看到一个有趣的人时，我们应该停止违背自己生活中的教训。结合句意以及上文的“The next time we spot an interesting person”可知，此处表示建议，需用should。故填should。 Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. （24-25高二下·上海·期中） A．explosion B．run C． evenly D．reaches E. cutting-edge F. typically G. matter H. puts I. boosts J. remarks K. unremarkable Are the super shoes used in Olympic races twisting results? The build-up to every modern Olympic Games is filled with stories about athletics tracks and swimming pools carefully designed for setting records. But any performance 31 these give are shared by all competitors. Then came the arrival of the first super shoes in 2016, which accelerated road-running events like the marathon. The launch of their “super spikes (钉鞋)” cousin a few years later is now having a similar effect on the longest races 32 inside the stadium. At first glance, this 33 in the use of super shoes appears to have sent times falling across the board, with performances once considered the mark of all-time greatness rapidly becoming 34 . But the advances in shoe technology have one crucial difference to the other technological changes that have modernized sports over the years. The benefits are not 35 distributed among competitors － even for those wearing the same shoes. With super shoes, some runners get huge boosts while others find the 36 footwear knocks them off their stride (步伐). Study after study has found that difference between “hyper-responders” － those whose physiology or running style combines with the shoes to maximum benefit － and “non-responders” 37 several percentage points. In races that are 38 decided by much less than half a percentage point, that can be the difference between gold medal and loser. This variation in the advantage given by the shoes is similar to a new Formula One racing car that is able to help left-handed people drive faster while slowing down right-handed drivers. As sports scientist Ross Tucker 39 it, it’s not only possible but likely that if you took two outstanding athletes each wearing a different pair of advanced shoes, and changed their shoes, you would get a different race result. Athletic ability is already determined in part by differences in physiology and biomechanics. The question is whether we’re now OK with differences that did not previously 40 suddenly becoming crucial as a result of new technology. 【答案】 31．I 32．B 33．A 34．K 35．C 36．E 37．D 38．F 39．H 40．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了超级跑鞋对奥运比赛成绩的影响及其争议。 31．考查名词。句意：但这些所带来的任何性能提升都是由所有参赛者共享的。根据上文“athletics tracks and swimming pools carefully designed for setting records”可知，这些精心设计的跑道和泳池是为了创造记录，会给运动员带来成绩上的提升，所以此处表示任何性能提升都是所有参赛者共享的。本空作主语，用名词boost“提升”，表示多种、多方面的性能提升用复数形式，符合语境。故选I。 32．考查动词。句意：几年后推出的“超级钉鞋”现在对体育场内最长的比赛产生了类似的影响。空处作后置定语，根据“The launch of their “super spikes (钉鞋)” cousin a few years later is now having a similar effect on the longest races”可知，空处应用run“进行（比赛）”，与races为被动关系，用过去分词。故选B。 33．考查名词。句意：乍一看，超级鞋使用的这种激增似乎让比赛成绩全面下降，曾经被认为是历史上最伟大的成绩很快就变得平凡了。空处作主语，根据前文“Then came the arrival of the first super shoes in 2016, which accelerated road-running events like the marathon.”和后文“in the use of super shoes appears to have sent times falling across the board”可知，应用名词explosion“激增”，表示使用量的突然增加。故选A。 34．考查形容词。句意同上。空处作表语，根据“performances once considered the mark of all-time greatness rapidly becoming”可知，此处指曾经伟大的成绩现在变得平淡无奇，本空作表语，用形容词unremarkable“平凡的，不引人注目的”，符合语境。故选K。 35．考查副词。句意：好处并没有在竞争者之间平均分配——即使是那些穿着同样鞋子的人。根据“distributed among competitors”可知，此处指好处没有平均分配，本空修饰动词distributed，作状语，用副词evenly“平均地”，符合语境。故选C。 36．考查形容词。句意：有了超级跑鞋，一些跑步者得到了巨大的提升，而另一些跑步者则发现这种最先进的鞋子打乱了他们的步伐。本空修饰名词footwear，作定语，用形容词cutting-edge“最先进的”，符合语境。故选E。 37．考查动词。句意：一项又一项研究发现，“超反应者”（那些生理或跑步风格与鞋子结合以获得最大益处的人）和“无反应者”之间的差异达到几个百分点。本空为that引导的宾语从句的谓语，根据“several percentage points”可知，此处指差异达到几个百分点，reach“达到”符合语境，陈述客观事实用一般现在时，主语为difference，谓语用第三人称单数形式reaches。故选D。 38．考查副词。句意：在通常以不到半个百分点的差距决定的比赛中，这可能是金牌和失败者之间的区别。根据“decided by much less than half a percentage point”可知，此处指通常以不到半个百分点的差距决定的比赛，本空修饰decided，作状语，用副词typically“通常”，符合语境。故选F。 39．考查动词。句意：正如体育科学家罗斯·塔克所说，如果你让两名优秀的运动员各穿一双不同的先进跑鞋，然后换鞋，你很可能会得到不同的比赛结果，这不仅是可能的，而且是可能的。此处为从句的谓语，根据“it’s not only possible but likely that if you took two outstanding athletes each wearing a different pair of advanced shoes, and changed their shoes, you would get a different race result”可知，此处是体育科学家罗斯·塔克说的话，as sb put it“正如某人所说”符合语境，主语Ross Tucker为第三人称单数，谓语用第三人称单数形式。故选H。 40．考查动词。句意：问题在于，我们是否现在可以接受由于新技术而使以前无关紧要的差异突然变得至关重要。根据“suddenly becoming crucial as a result of new technology”可知，此处指以前无关紧要的差异，matter“有关系，要紧”符合语境，did not后接动词原形。故选G。 III.Reading Comprehension (共45分。 41-45每题1分；56-70每题2分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context （24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）I decided to retire my personal social website account. It all began with a detailed review of my own Instagram account. I worked out that more than 80 per cent of the photos I had posted featured my 41 . In some ways this seemed 42 . If social websites are for a simple game of showing off, these two are clearly my pride. Next, however, I examined my husband’s post for 43 . In real life, he loves the kids no less than I do. Yet between his two social website accounts, they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos. The 44 was split between a) kitchens he had designed and b) vinyl (黑胶) records he had purchased (the former being his job, the latter his addiction). We divide our time between work and childcare in comparable proportions. Yet the 45 suggested by our online selves was quite different. According to Katrin Tiidenberg, associate professor of social media and visual culture at Tallinn University, who is publishing a forthcoming book called Sex and Social Media, this is because men and women often have different 46 for sharing information on social media. When my husband posted a photo of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska on vinyl, his aim was 47 , my conversation with Tiidenberg implied. As the words on his post suggested, he mainly wanted the world to know that the 1982 album is: “so good”. When I posted a photo of our daughter eating fish fingers in fancy dress, sure, I was 48 . She looked amazing. I was hoping that her star quality might reflect, just a little, on me. But according to Tiidenberg: “Women tend to use social media as a tool to maintain their social 49 . They take those into account when they post and when deciding how they post.” A photo of a five-year-old in fancy-dress,   50 , doesn’t just say: “so good”. It can, meanwhile, say: “Hello godmother, who we feel guilty for cancelling on the other day”, “Hello cousins, who are now in Australia and feel a little disconnected...” Tiidenberg is careful to stress that she’s “not making any essentialist argument” about women and men’s 51 for either type of content. Instead, she argues, women have always been trained to take responsibility for cultivating and managing social networks: “They’re told it’s what they’re 52 .” In the distant pre-digital past, women were 53 guardians of the family photo album. And even today, says Tiidenberg, a division of 54 labor endures within many families in our offline worlds: “Who remembers people’s birthdays, sends your mother a card and buys the Christmas presents?” The knowledge that I had also 55 responsibility for the online equivalent made me feel angry. 41．A．children B．work C．addiction D．hobbies 42．A．strange B．unnecessary C．possible D．natural 43．A．information B．development C．consideration D．comparison 44．A．reality B．remainder C．knowledge D．visibility 45．A．direction B．balance C．reason D．manner 46．A．techniques B．requirements C．procedures D．motivations 47．A．true B．correct C．simple D．vague 48．A．showing off B．taking on C．setting out D．looking aside 49．A．positions B．services C．ties D．aims 50．A．at the beginning B．in other words C．on the whole D．by contrast 51．A．preferences B．demands C．support D．search 52．A．unaware of B．afraid of C．present at D．good at 53．A．unusually B．doubtfully C．typically D．contrarily 54．A．emotional B．casual C．domestic D．physical 55．A．denied B．shifted C．assumed D．stressed 【答案】 41．A 42．D 43．D 44．B 45．B 46．D 47．C 48．A 49．C 50．B 51．A 52．D 53．C 54．A 55．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者因发现自己80%的Instagram照片是孩子，而丈夫仅25%，经专家分析，得知男女使用社交媒体动机不同，女性更倾向借此维护社交关系，这让承担线上情感劳动的作者很愤怒。 41．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我算了一下，我所发布的照片中，超过80%都是关于我孩子的。A. children孩子；B. work工作；C. addiction上瘾；D. hobbies爱好。根据后文“If social websites are for a simple game of showing off, these two are clearly my pride.”及“he loves the kids no less than I do”可知，“these two”指作者的孩子，由此可知，此处是指发布关于孩子的照片。故选A。 42．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：从某种意义上说，这似乎是很自然的事情。A. strange奇怪的；B. unnecessary不必要的；C. possible可能的；D. natural自然的。根据后文“If social websites are for a simple game of showing off, these two are clearly my pride.”可知，作者认为如果社交网站是用来炫耀的，那么晒孩子是“自然的”，因为孩子是她的骄傲。natural（自然的）符合语义。故选D。 43．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，接下来我查看了我丈夫的帖子以作对比。A. information信息；B. development发展；C. consideration考虑；D. comparison对比。根据后文“In real life, he loves the kids no less than I do. Yet between his two social website accounts, they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos.(在现实生活中，他对孩子们的喜爱程度丝毫不亚于我。然而，在他的两个社交网站账号中，这些孩子出现在他的照片里的比例却只有约25%)”可知，作者查看丈夫的帖子是为了 “对比”。后文将丈夫和自己晒孩子的比例进行对比，故选D。 44．考查名词词义辨析。句意：剩余的部分被分为两部分：a）他设计的厨房；b）他购买的黑胶唱片（前者是他的工作成果，后者则是他的个人爱好）。A. reality现实；B. remainder剩余部分；C. knowledge知识；D. visibility能见度。根据上文“In real life, he loves the kids no less than I do. Yet between his two social website accounts, they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos.(在现实生活中，他对孩子们的喜爱程度丝毫不亚于我。然而，在他的两个社交网站账号中，这些孩子出现在他的照片里的比例却只有约25%)”可知，丈夫的帖子中，除 25% 晒孩子外，“剩余部分”是厨房设计和黑胶唱片。故选B。 45．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，我们在网络上展现的自我所体现的平衡却截然不同。A. direction方向；B. balance平衡；C. reason理由；D. manner礼貌。根据上文“they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos”以及“80 per cent of the photos I had posted featured my”可知，尽管现实中夫妻分担工作和育儿的比例相当，但线上呈现的“平衡”却不同。balance（平衡）指晒孩子与其他内容的比例，符合语境。故选B。 46．考查名词词义辨析。句意：塔林大学社交媒体与视觉文化专业的副教授卡特琳·蒂伊德贝格正在出版一本名为《性与社交媒体》的新书。她表示，这是因为男性和女性在社交媒体上分享信息时往往有着不同的动机。A. techniques技术；B. requirements要求；C. procedures程序；D. motivations动机。根据后文“When my husband posted a photo of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska on vinyl, his aim was”可知，丈夫和作者发动态的目的是不同的。故选D。 47．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：据蒂德内伯格所述，我丈夫发布那张布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀的《内布拉斯加》（以黑胶唱片形式发行）的照片时，其目的很简单。A. true真的；B. correct正确的；C. simple简单的；D. vague模糊的。根据后文“As the words on his post suggested, he mainly wanted the world to know that the 1982 album is: “so good”.(正如他在帖子中所写的内容所示，他主要想让全世界都知道这张 1982 年发行的专辑是：“非常出色”。)”可知，丈夫发黑胶唱片的目的“简单”，只是想表达“专辑很棒”。故选C。 48．考查动词短语辨析。句意：当我上传了一张我们女儿身着奇装异服正在吃鱼形饼干的照片时，没错，我这么做显然是在炫耀。A. showing off炫耀；B. taking on承担；C. setting out出发；D. looking aside别在意，无视。前文提到社交网站是“showing off”的平台，且“hoping her star quality might reflect on me”体现炫耀心理，故选A。 49．考查名词词义辨析。句意：但蒂伊登贝格表示：“女性通常会将社交媒体当作一种工具，来维持她们的人际关系。”A. positions位置；B. services服务；C. ties结，联系；D. aims目标。根据后文“It can, meanwhile, say: “Hello godmother, who we feel guilty for cancelling on the other day”, “Hello cousins, who are now in Australia and feel a little disconnected...”(与此同时，它还可以这样表达：“亲爱的教母，对于前几天的失约之举，我感到十分愧疚”，“亲爱的堂兄弟们，你们现在在澳大利亚，而我却感觉与你们有些疏远……”)”提到发动态时会考虑教母、表亲等关系可知，女性将社交媒体当作维持人际关系的工具。故选C。 50．考查介词短语辨析。句意：换言之，一张五岁小孩穿着奇装异服的照片，并非仅仅意味着：“真棒”。A. at the beginning一开始；B. in other words换句话说；C. on the whole总体而言；D. by contrast相比之下。根据后文“It can, meanwhile, say: “Hello godmother, who we feel guilty for cancelling on the other day”, “Hello cousins, who are now in Australia and feel a little disconnected...”(与此同时，它还可以这样表达：“亲爱的教母，对于前几天的失约之举，我感到十分愧疚”，“亲爱的堂兄弟们，你们现在在澳大利亚，而我却感觉与你们有些疏远……”)”可知，“五岁孩子穿华丽服装的照片”换句话说，不仅是“很棒”，还隐含对他人的问候。in other words（换句话说）用于解释深层含义。故选B。 51．考查名词词义辨析。句意：蒂迪内伯格特意强调，她“并未对男女对于这两种内容类型的偏好做出任何本质主义的论断”。A. preferences偏爱；B. demands要求；C. support支持；D. search搜索。根据上文“she’s “not making any essentialist argument” about women and men’s”可知，Tiidenberg强调不讨论男女对内容的“偏好”本质差异。preferences（偏好）指对不同内容的倾向，符合语境。故选A。 52．考查固定短语辨析。句意：相反，她认为，一直以来，女性都被教导要负责建立和管理自己的社交网络：“她们被告知这正是她们擅长的领域。”A. unaware of不知道；B. afraid of害怕；C. present at出席；D. good at擅长。根据上文“they’re trained to take responsibility”推知，此处指女性被告知自己擅长社交网络。故选D。 53．考查副词词义辨析。句意：在遥远的数字化之前的时代，女性通常是家庭相册的保管者。A. unusually不寻常的；B. doubtfully怀疑地；C. typically典型地；D. contrarily相反地。根据后文“guardians of the family photo album”可知，在数字时代前，女性“通常”是家庭相册的守护者。typically（通常地）体现传统性别角色，与后文“even today”的延续性呼应。故选C。 54．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：蒂德内伯格表示，即便在当下，这种情感劳动的分担现象在我们现实世界的家庭中依然存在：“谁会记得别人的生日、给母亲送贺卡以及购买圣诞礼物呢？”A. emotional情感的；B. casual随意的；C. domestic国内的，家用的；D. physical身体的。根据后文“Who remembers people’s birthdays, sends your mother a card and buys the Christmas presents?”可知，家庭中“情感”劳动的分工持续存在，如记生日、寄卡片等。emotional labor（情感劳动）为固定搭配，指维系人际关系的情感付出。故选A。 55．考查动词词义辨析。句意：而我意识到自己还得承担起线上版的相关职责这一事实，却让我感到十分愤怒。A. denied否认；B. shifted转换；C. assumed认为；D. stressed强调。根据后文“responsibility for the online equivalent made me feel angry”可知，作者意识到自己“承担”了线上情感劳动的责任而感到愤怒。assume responsibility（承担责任）为固定搭配。故选C。 Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A （24-25高二下·上海松江·期中）Comedian Liu Yang, 37, hit the public spotlight last year. He led his team to victory in the hit sketch comedy (小品) competition Amazing Night and made the top five in the stand-up comedy competition. King of Comedy (《喜剧之王单口季》). This year, he realized his dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing during middle school. Liu struggled to adapt to the new environment and felt that he had to entertain his peers during meals for lack of confidence. Humor not only helped Liu fit in socially but also shaped his career path. As Western stand-up comedy gained popularity in Beijing in 2015, he decided to jump into the industry. Liu founded the Danliren comedy club in 2017 with three keen stand-up fans. Each year, he would make his brand-new solo stand-up comedy show lasting over an hour, becoming a key feature of the club. However, as online stand-up comedy competitions gained popularity in China, Liu’s peers soon found fame through their appearances on these hit shows. This made Liu feel anxious and overshadowed by his fellow comedians. “Sometimes, I can’t help but feel envious of others.” Liu admitted. In one of his sketch shows, he reimagined the classic novel Journey to the West, focusing on Sha Wujing, a character with a smaller role in the original tale. His adaptation symbolized those who quietly do their duties without receiving much recognition. “Performing sketch has restored my sensitivity to life,” he said. Liu has maintained a very busy work style. In one day, he would fit in three stand-up comedy performances in Beijing, hit the gym and fly to Shanghai for the live recording of King of Comedy. He no longer does these activities out of anxiety, but continues to work hard. “There is never a moment that truly proves oneself. For creators, the only thing to do is to do one’s best in the process, and that’s all,” he said. 56．According to the passage, what made Liu Yang start to enter the stand-up comedy industry? A．His success in the sketch comedy competition. B．His experience of moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing. C．The popularity of Western stand-up comedy in Beijing in 2015. D．His dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. 57．The underlined word “overshadowed” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A．encouraged B．made less important C．applauded D．made more famous 58．What is the main idea of Paragraph 5? A．Liu Yang’s adaptation of the classic novel Journey to the West. B．The role of Sha Wujing in Journey to the West. C．How Liu Yang overcame his anxiety. D．The influence of performing sketch on Liu Yang. 59．We can infer from the passage that Liu Yang ________. A．is always confident in his comedy career B．will stop performing stand-up comedy C．believes in the value of trying best in the process D．thinks highly of his appearance on King of Comedy 【答案】56．C 57．B 58．D 59．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了喜剧演员刘旸的喜剧生涯经历，包括他进入单口相声行业的契机、在行业发展中遇到的焦虑、对经典作品的改编以及他的工作理念等。 56．细节理解题。根据第二段“As Western stand-up comedy gained popularity in Beijing in 2015, he decided to jump into the industry. (2015年，随着西方单口相声在北京流行起来，他决定进入这个行业)”可知，2015年西方单口相声在北京的流行促使刘旸开始进入这个行业。故选C项。 57．词义猜测题。根据第四段“However, as online stand-up comedy competitions gained popularity in China, Liu's peers soon found fame through their appearances on these hit shows. This made Liu feel anxious and overshadowed by his fellow comedians. (然而，随着在线单口喜剧比赛在中国流行起来，刘洋的同行们很快通过在这些热门节目中的亮相而声名大噪。这让刘旸感到焦虑，并且在同行喜剧演员面前overshadowed)”可知，同行出名让刘洋相形见绌，所以overshadowed与made less important意思相近，意为“使显得不重要；使相形见绌”。故选B项。 58．主旨大意题。根据第五段“His adaptation symbolized those who quietly do their duties without receiving much recognition. “Performing sketch has restored my sensitivity to life,” he said. (他的改编象征着那些默默地履行职责而没有得到太多认可的人。他说：“表演喜剧性小品恢复了我对生活的敏感度。”)”可知，第五段主要讲的是小品表演对刘旸的影响。故选D项。 59．推理判断题。根据最后一段“He no longer does these activities out of anxiety, but continues to work hard. “There is never a moment that truly proves oneself. For creators, the only thing to do is to do one’s best in the process, and that’s all,” he said. (他不再出于焦虑而做这些活动，而是继续努力工作。他说：‘从来没有一个时刻能真正证明自己。对于创作者来说，唯一要做的就是在过程中全力以赴，仅此而已’)”可知，刘旸相信在过程中全力以赴的价值。故选C项。 B （25-26高二下·上海闵行·月考）United Nations      Careers Home The UN Workforce Pay and Benefits Career Journeys Career Options How to Apply Apply Now Home > How To Apply Application Process Creating Your Job Application FAQs on preparing your Application Q: Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening (JO)?

A mature red pine (松树) is a tall, straight overstory tree that thrives in cold winters and cool summers. It’s the official Minnesota state tree and a valued target of its timber industry. But red pine’s days of dominance here could fade. In coming decades, climate change will make red pine and other Northwoods trees increasingly vulnerable to destructive combinations of longer, warmer summers and less extremely cold winters, as well as droughts, windstorms, wildfires and insect infestations. Climate change is altering ecological conditions in cold regions faster than trees can adapt or migrate. Palik, a forest ecologist, stops and points to a newcomer under the red-pine canopy: a broadleaf deciduous tree. “It’s doing really well,” he says. This tree probably shouldn’t be thriving here. Normally, if a southern adapted seedling (幼苗) is planted in an unsuitably cold climate like this one, it can risk frost damage, and its survival is threatened. But the newcomer’s lush, green foliage indicates good health. It is a promising sign in a project that aims to keep forests growing in a warming world. Palik’s project is an experiment in forest assisted migration, the relocation of trees to help woodlands adapt and flourish despite the heating of their habitats from climate change. Foresters advocating assisted migration are typically not aiming to save specific species — instead, by moving trees, they want to help sustain productive forest for multiple benefits such as carbon storage, water filtration, wildlife habitat, recreational beauty and timber. Now, assisted migration research for conservation is getting bolder with growing concerns about future forest disruption from climate change. And the movement is growing internationally, with research happening in Spain, Canada, Mexico, etc. Moreover, recent proposals have called for relocating endangered species to new habitats where they would have a better chance of thriving: Mexican gray wolves to northern parts of Arizona, New Mexico or Texas, for example, or Karner blue butterflies farther north from southern Michigan. However, artificially moving a forest, some biologists say, has risks. Relocated species might become invasive or disrupt the ecological balance of the forest. But, says Palik, “the risk of not trying to move species for climate change is larger”. “Forests die fast and grow slowly,” says Lee Frelich, a forest ecologist at the University of Minnesota Center for Forest Ecology. As climate change continues, he says, some forests could vanish, replaced by encroaching (渐渐渗入的) grasslands that do not provide the types of wildlife habitat and other benefits that healthy forests do. “Your only option in that case,” he says, “is to bring in new species or live with whatever nature does,” which — in cases of extreme climate change “is likely to be brushy vegetation and not be a forest for quite some time.” 63．How does climate change affect the Northwoods region of Minnesota? A．By decreasing the length of the growing season. B．By reducing the occurrence of droughts and wildfires. C．By increasing the frequency of extremely cold winters. D．By changing the living condition of the tree species there. 64．What is a key consideration for Brian Palik when deciding which trees to plant? A．Focusing exclusively on planting trees that aren’t native to the area. B．Planting the tallest and fastest-growing trees to quickly restore the forest. C．Choosing trees that are the most economically valuable for timber production. D．Selecting species that can thrive in the changing climate conditions expected in the future. 65．What is the primary goal of assisted migration? A．To ensure that forests remain productive and provide ecosystem services. B．To preserve specific endangered species in their original habitats. C．To maintain the aesthetic beauty of forests for tourism. D．To increase the profitability of the timber industry. 66．Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A．The practice of forest assisted migration is bound to be carried out on a larger scale globally. B．Scientists’ concerns over forest disruption stem from the economic losses in the timber industry. C．Forest assisted migration appears to be a necessary attempt to maintain forest ecosystems. D．Relocated species will always outcompete native species, leading to biodiversity loss. 【答案】63．D 64．D 65．A 66．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了由于明尼苏达森林受气候变化威胁，因此人类开始进行辅助迁移，帮助保护森林。 63．细节理解题。根据第二段“In coming decades, climate change will make red pine and other Northwoods trees increasingly vulnerable to destructive combinations of longer, warmer summers and less extremely cold winters, as well as droughts, windstorms, wildfires and insect infestations.(在未来的几十年里，气候变化将使红松和其他北方森林的树木越来越容易受到更长、更温暖的夏季和不那么极端寒冷的冬季以及干旱、风暴、野火和虫害的破坏性组合的影响)”可知，气候变化通过改变当地树种的生存条件影响明尼苏达州的北森林地区。故选D。 64．细节理解题。根据第三段“Palik, a forest ecologist, stops and points to a newcomer under the red-pine canopy: a broadleaf deciduous tree. “It’s doing really well,” he says. This tree probably shouldn’t be thriving here. Normally, if a southern adapted seedling (幼苗) is planted in an unsuitably cold climate like this one, it can risk frost damage, and its survival is threatened. But the newcomer’s lush, green foliage indicates good health.(森林生态学家帕利克停下脚步，指着红松树冠下的一棵新来者：一棵阔叶落叶树。“它适应得非常好，”他说。这棵树可能不应该在这里茁壮成长。正常情况下，如果在像这样不适宜的寒冷气候中种植南方适应的幼苗，它可能会受到霜冻损害，其生存受到威胁。但新来者郁郁葱葱的绿叶表明很健康)”可知，布莱恩·帕利克在决定种哪种树时，主要考虑的是选择能够在未来气候变化条件下茁壮成长的物种。故选D。 65．细节理解题。根据第四段“Foresters advocating assisted migration are typically not aiming to save specific species — instead, by moving trees, they want to help sustain productive forest for multiple benefits such as carbon storage, water filtration, wildlife habitat, recreational beauty and timber.(提倡辅助迁移的林务人员通常不是为了拯救特定的物种——相反，他们希望通过迁移树木来帮助维持森林的生产力，从而获得多种好处，如碳储存、水过滤、野生动物栖息地、娱乐美景和木材)”可知，辅助迁移的主要目标是确保森林保持生产力，并提供各种生态系统服务。故选A。 66．推理判断题。根据最后一段“As climate change continues, he says, some forests could vanish, replaced by encroaching (渐渐渗入的) grasslands that do not provide the types of wildlife habitat and other benefits that healthy forests do. “Your only option in that case,” he says, “is to bring in new species or live with whatever nature does,” which — in cases of extreme climate change “is likely to be brushy vegetation and not be a forest for quite some time.”(他说，随着气候变化的持续，一些森林可能会消失，取而代之的是逐渐侵占的草原，这些草原不能提供野生动物栖息地，也不能提供健康森林所能提供的其他好处。“在这种情况下，你唯一的选择，”他说，“就是引进新物种，或者与大自然一起生活，”在极端气候变化的情况下，“很可能在很长一段时间内变成灌木丛生的植被，而不是森林。”)”可知，森林辅助迁移似乎是维持森林生态系统的必要尝试。故选C。 Section C Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need. （25-26高二下·上海·月考）Have you ever wondered what you would look like as a cartoon character or a marvel superhero? With the power of artificial intelligence (AI) text-to-image generators, you can create images just like that — without any art skills. 67 Then How does it work? AI text-to-image generators are trained through a process called machine learning. In this process, the generator’s “brain” is fed massive numbers of images and learns to distinguish what they are. But the generator doesn’t just learn to tell the difference between a banana and a balloon. 68 These pixel-level details are then stored in a mathematical space. When someone gives the generator a text passage such as “Doraemon riding a white horse,” the program uses algorithms (算法) to “think”. Moments later, the program will create an entirely unique image that you requested. Some artists worry that they are being replaced by this technology. But other artists like to cooperate with the generator, using its power for ideas and inspiration. This powerful tool is now available to anyone through generators like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E. You can use them to create all kinds of imaginative images. 69 People find some dark side of it. Generators like Stable Diffusion are trained using images that are gathered from all over the internet. But the training process doesn’t exclude (排除) images that are violent or inappropriate, so the generators “learn” those as well. The DALL-E program comes with built-in filters that prevent it from generating perverse (变态的) images. But Stable Diffusion is an open-source technology, meaning that people can modify its code and remove the content filters. Despite this, Stable Diffusion’s founder Emad Mostaque remains optimistic about how people will use his generator. He says, “The bad stuff that people create... will be a very, very small percentage of the total use.” For better or for worse, 70 . But don’t generate anything you’d be ashamed to show your mother! A．But this technology can be dangerous as well. B．You just need to have some experience with technology as well as a proper computer. C．Therefore, AI technology will be used more and more widely in the future. D．AI text-to-image generators will become as common and easy to use as Google image search. E．Rather, it will categorize every possible detail. F．Meanwhile, the generator can help people to recognize various information accurately. 【答案】67．B 68．E 69．A 70．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了AI文本到图像生成器的工作原理、应用及潜在风险。 67．上文“With the power of artificial intelligence (Al) text-to-image generators, you can create images just like that — without any art skills.(借助人工智能文本到图像生成器的强大功能，你可以像这样创建图像——无需任何艺术技能)”及下文“Then How does it work?(那么它是如何工作的呢？)”说明人工智能文本到图像生成器可以创建图像，下文又问其工作原理，空处应说明创建图像的条件，B选项“你只需要有一些技术经验以及一台合适的电脑”与上文形成顺承关系，符合上文“无需艺术技能”的逻辑延伸，并自然过渡到下文的工作原理，符合语境。故选B。 68．上文“But the generator doesn’t just learn to tell the difference between a banana and a balloon.(但生成器不仅仅学会区分香蕉和气球)”及下文“These pixel-level details are then stored in a mathematical space.(这些像素级细节随后被存储在一个数学空间中)”说明生成器不仅仅学会区分香蕉和气球，还会对细节进行分类，下文又说明这些细节被存储，空处承上启下，E选项“相反，它会对每一个可能的细节进行分类”中的“Rather”与上文形成转折关系，“categorize every possible detail”与下文“These pixel-level details”相呼应，符合语境。故选E。 69．上文“This powerful tool is now available to anyone through generators like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E.

Most of us do multitasking almost daily. But it’s time to change that. Let’s take the smartphone for example. On average you check your phone 110 times a day—that means you’re spending 23 days every year glued to your smartphone! How productive do you think that makes you? Habits encouraging you to multitask make you unproductive. But it’s hard to let go of these habits because you’ve conditioned your brain to send misleading signals to your body. Research has shown that when you multitask “successfully”, you activate the reward mechanism in your brain that releases dopamine, the happy hormone. You feel so good that you believe you’re being effective and this further encourages your multitasking habit. This rush can also make you overly optimistic, less careful about the work you do and more likely to make mistakes, Multitaskers basically get addicted to this rush which leads them to believe they are being effective when in fact they’re not. Since our brains can only effectively focus on one thing at a time, monotasking is the way for you to accomplish more in less time. Research has suggested you’re 50% quicker on average to accomplish a task if you monotask, and you’re also 50% less likely to make errors. So it’s a win-win for everyone! You’ll also be able to appreciate things on a deeper level and get more enjoyment from them when you’re focused. Now you’re probably desperate to find out how to get rid of this multitasking habit so you can find real productivity. There is no easy answer. You simply have to commit to it and have the self discipline to stick to one task at a time. Just say to yourself: When I walk, I walk. When I talk to someone, I talk to someone. Focus on the one thing you are doing. And like that, you’ve mastered monotasking ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Multitasking reduces productivity and leads to mistakes due to the brain's addiction to dopamine-driven multitasking rushes.

Why Everyone Is Lonely One of the reasons why we tend not to make friends as often as we might come down to a powerful background idea 21 full destructive force we may not even be aware of: the belief that any decent person already has all the friends they need. Somewhere in our minds, the notion has been lodged that only very sad and incapable people would — at this stage in their lives — still have a space in their social agenda for a newcomer. Almost everyone else — anyone worthy 22 (know), talented, interesting or good — would long ago have acquired the gang to which they are now continually and hopelessly connected. 23 this punishing idea misses is the extent to which a feeling of loneliness and disenchantment (幻灭感) is in reality an ongoing and universal possibility, in no way limited to 24 of reduced appeal. Right now, the enchanting actor is (despite the crowds) perhaps lonely; 25 is the celebrated concert pianist, the renowned biologist, the skilled airline pilot, the miraculous neurosurgeon and that rather nice-looking person you have just spotted in the corner of the room 26 (laugh) animatedly with a group of fashionable companions. It’s open to anyone of sensitivity and charm to fail to find the right sort of allies, 27 (outgrow) their friends from school or university, to not have landed on agreeable spirits at work and therefore to be spending a lot of their evenings on their own. And we can know this for certain of other people 28 we know it from a very reliable source: ourselves. Other people who know us at a social level almost certainly find it hard to imagine the degree to which we are exposed to loneliness and 29 we would still like to locate a wise, tender, funny and interesting new friend. The next time we spot an interesting person, we 30 stop disobey the moral of our own lives. We don’t have exactly the right people in our social circle — and nor, most probably, do they. So we can afford to drop our false background ideas of social life — and go up and say hello. Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. （24-25高二下·上海·期中） A．explosion B．run C． evenly D．reaches E. cutting-edge F. typically G. matter H. puts I. boosts J. remarks K. unremarkable Are the super shoes used in Olympic races twisting results? The build-up to every modern Olympic Games is filled with stories about athletics tracks and swimming pools carefully designed for setting records. But any performance 31 these give are shared by all competitors. Then came the arrival of the first super shoes in 2016, which accelerated road-running events like the marathon. The launch of their “super spikes (钉鞋)” cousin a few years later is now having a similar effect on the longest races 32 inside the stadium. At first glance, this 33 in the use of super shoes appears to have sent times falling across the board, with performances once considered the mark of all-time greatness rapidly becoming 34 . But the advances in shoe technology have one crucial difference to the other technological changes that have modernized sports over the years. The benefits are not 35 distributed among competitors － even for those wearing the same shoes. With super shoes, some runners get huge boosts while others find the 36 footwear knocks them off their stride (步伐). Study after study has found that difference between “hyper-responders” － those whose physiology or running style combines with the shoes to maximum benefit － and “non-responders” 37 several percentage points. In races that are 38 decided by much less than half a percentage point, that can be the difference between gold medal and loser. This variation in the advantage given by the shoes is similar to a new Formula One racing car that is able to help left-handed people drive faster while slowing down right-handed drivers. As sports scientist Ross Tucker 39 it, it’s not only possible but likely that if you took two outstanding athletes each wearing a different pair of advanced shoes, and changed their shoes, you would get a different race result. Athletic ability is already determined in part by differences in physiology and biomechanics. The question is whether we’re now OK with differences that did not previously 40 suddenly becoming crucial as a result of new technology.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context （24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）I decided to retire my personal social website account. It all began with a detailed review of my own Instagram account. I worked out that more than 80 per cent of the photos I had posted featured my 41 . In some ways this seemed 42 . If social websites are for a simple game of showing off, these two are clearly my pride. Next, however, I examined my husband’s post for 43 . In real life, he loves the kids no less than I do. Yet between his two social website accounts, they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos. The 44 was split between a) kitchens he had designed and b) vinyl (黑胶) records he had purchased (the former being his job, the latter his addiction). We divide our time between work and childcare in comparable proportions. Yet the 45 suggested by our online selves was quite different. According to Katrin Tiidenberg, associate professor of social media and visual culture at Tallinn University, who is publishing a forthcoming book called Sex and Social Media, this is because men and women often have different 46 for sharing information on social media. When my husband posted a photo of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska on vinyl, his aim was 47 , my conversation with Tiidenberg implied. As the words on his post suggested, he mainly wanted the world to know that the 1982 album is: “so good”. When I posted a photo of our daughter eating fish fingers in fancy dress, sure, I was 48 . She looked amazing. I was hoping that her star quality might reflect, just a little, on me. But according to Tiidenberg: “Women tend to use social media as a tool to maintain their social 49 . They take those into account when they post and when deciding how they post.” A photo of a five-year-old in fancy-dress,   50 , doesn’t just say: “so good”. It can, meanwhile, say: “Hello godmother, who we feel guilty for cancelling on the other day”, “Hello cousins, who are now in Australia and feel a little disconnected...” Tiidenberg is careful to stress that she’s “not making any essentialist argument” about women and men’s 51 for either type of content. Instead, she argues, women have always been trained to take responsibility for cultivating and managing social networks: “They’re told it’s what they’re 52 .” In the distant pre-digital past, women were 53 guardians of the family photo album. And even today, says Tiidenberg, a division of 54 labor endures within many families in our offline worlds: “Who remembers people’s birthdays, sends your mother a card and buys the Christmas presents?” The knowledge that I had also 55 responsibility for the online equivalent made me feel angry. 41．A．children B．work C．addiction D．hobbies 42．A．strange B．unnecessary C．possible D．natural 43．A．information B．development C．consideration D．comparison 44．A．reality B．remainder C．knowledge D．visibility 45．A．direction B．balance C．reason D．manner 46．A．techniques B．requirements C．procedures D．motivations 47．A．true B．correct C．simple D．vague 48．A．showing off B．taking on C．setting out D．looking aside 49．A．positions B．services C．ties D．aims 50．A．at the beginning B．in other words C．on the whole D．by contrast 51．A．preferences B．demands C．support D．search 52．A．unaware of B．afraid of C．present at D．good at 53．A．unusually B．doubtfully C．typically D．contrarily 54．A．emotional B．casual C．domestic D．physical 55．A．denied B．shifted C．assumed D．stressed Section B Directions: Read the following three passages.

He led his team to victory in the hit sketch comedy (小品) competition Amazing Night and made the top five in the stand-up comedy competition. King of Comedy (《喜剧之王单口季》). This year, he realized his dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing during middle school. Liu struggled to adapt to the new environment and felt that he had to entertain his peers during meals for lack of confidence. Humor not only helped Liu fit in socially but also shaped his career path. As Western stand-up comedy gained popularity in Beijing in 2015, he decided to jump into the industry. Liu founded the Danliren comedy club in 2017 with three keen stand-up fans. Each year, he would make his brand-new solo stand-up comedy show lasting over an hour, becoming a key feature of the club. However, as online stand-up comedy competitions gained popularity in China, Liu’s peers soon found fame through their appearances on these hit shows. This made Liu feel anxious and overshadowed by his fellow comedians. “Sometimes, I can’t help but feel envious of others.” Liu admitted. In one of his sketch shows, he reimagined the classic novel Journey to the West, focusing on Sha Wujing, a character with a smaller role in the original tale. His adaptation symbolized those who quietly do their duties without receiving much recognition. “Performing sketch has restored my sensitivity to life,” he said. Liu has maintained a very busy work style. In one day, he would fit in three stand-up comedy performances in Beijing, hit the gym and fly to Shanghai for the live recording of King of Comedy. He no longer does these activities out of anxiety, but continues to work hard. “There is never a moment that truly proves oneself. For creators, the only thing to do is to do one’s best in the process, and that’s all,” he said. 56．According to the passage, what made Liu Yang start to enter the stand-up comedy industry? A．His success in the sketch comedy competition. B．His experience of moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing. C．The popularity of Western stand-up comedy in Beijing in 2015. D．His dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. 57．The underlined word “overshadowed” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A．encouraged B．made less important C．applauded D．made more famous 58．What is the main idea of Paragraph 5? A．Liu Yang’s adaptation of the classic novel Journey to the West. B．The role of Sha Wujing in Journey to the West. C．How Liu Yang overcame his anxiety. D．The influence of performing sketch on Liu Yang. 59．We can infer from the passage that Liu Yang ________. A．is always confident in his comedy career B．will stop performing stand-up comedy C．believes in the value of trying best in the process D．thinks highly of his appearance on King of Comedy B （25-26高二下·上海闵行·月考）United Nations      Careers Home The UN Workforce Pay and Benefits Career Journeys Career Options How to Apply Apply Now Home > How To Apply Application Process Creating Your Job Application FAQs on preparing your Application Q: Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening (JO)?

A mature red pine (松树) is a tall, straight overstory tree that thrives in cold winters and cool summers. It’s the official Minnesota state tree and a valued target of its timber industry. But red pine’s days of dominance here could fade. In coming decades, climate change will make red pine and other Northwoods trees increasingly vulnerable to destructive combinations of longer, warmer summers and less extremely cold winters, as well as droughts, windstorms, wildfires and insect infestations. Climate change is altering ecological conditions in cold regions faster than trees can adapt or migrate. Palik, a forest ecologist, stops and points to a newcomer under the red-pine canopy: a broadleaf deciduous tree. “It’s doing really well,” he says. This tree probably shouldn’t be thriving here. Normally, if a southern adapted seedling (幼苗) is planted in an unsuitably cold climate like this one, it can risk frost damage, and its survival is threatened. But the newcomer’s lush, green foliage indicates good health. It is a promising sign in a project that aims to keep forests growing in a warming world. Palik’s project is an experiment in forest assisted migration, the relocation of trees to help woodlands adapt and flourish despite the heating of their habitats from climate change. Foresters advocating assisted migration are typically not aiming to save specific species — instead, by moving trees, they want to help sustain productive forest for multiple benefits such as carbon storage, water filtration, wildlife habitat, recreational beauty and timber. Now, assisted migration research for conservation is getting bolder with growing concerns about future forest disruption from climate change. And the movement is growing internationally, with research happening in Spain, Canada, Mexico, etc. Moreover, recent proposals have called for relocating endangered species to new habitats where they would have a better chance of thriving: Mexican gray wolves to northern parts of Arizona, New Mexico or Texas, for example, or Karner blue butterflies farther north from southern Michigan. However, artificially moving a forest, some biologists say, has risks. Relocated species might become invasive or disrupt the ecological balance of the forest. But, says Palik, “the risk of not trying to move species for climate change is larger”. “Forests die fast and grow slowly,” says Lee Frelich, a forest ecologist at the University of Minnesota Center for Forest Ecology. As climate change continues, he says, some forests could vanish, replaced by encroaching (渐渐渗入的) grasslands that do not provide the types of wildlife habitat and other benefits that healthy forests do. “Your only option in that case,” he says, “is to bring in new species or live with whatever nature does,” which — in cases of extreme climate change “is likely to be brushy vegetation and not be a forest for quite some time.” 63．How does climate change affect the Northwoods region of Minnesota? A．By decreasing the length of the growing season. B．By reducing the occurrence of droughts and wildfires. C．By increasing the frequency of extremely cold winters. D．By changing the living condition of the tree species there. 64．What is a key consideration for Brian Palik when deciding which trees to plant? A．Focusing exclusively on planting trees that aren’t native to the area. B．Planting the tallest and fastest-growing trees to quickly restore the forest. C．Choosing trees that are the most economically valuable for timber production. D．Selecting species that can thrive in the changing climate conditions expected in the future. 65．What is the primary goal of assisted migration? A．To ensure that forests remain productive and provide ecosystem services. B．To preserve specific endangered species in their original habitats. C．To maintain the aesthetic beauty of forests for tourism. D．To increase the profitability of the timber industry. 66．Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A．The practice of forest assisted migration is bound to be carried out on a larger scale globally. B．Scientists’ concerns over forest disruption stem from the economic losses in the timber industry. C．Forest assisted migration appears to be a necessary attempt to maintain forest ecosystems. D．Relocated species will always outcompete native species, leading to biodiversity loss.

With the power of artificial intelligence (AI) text-to-image generators, you can create images just like that — without any art skills. 67 Then How does it work? AI text-to-image generators are trained through a process called machine learning. In this process, the generator’s “brain” is fed massive numbers of images and learns to distinguish what they are. But the generator doesn’t just learn to tell the difference between a banana and a balloon. 68 These pixel-level details are then stored in a mathematical space. When someone gives the generator a text passage such as “Doraemon riding a white horse,” the program uses algorithms (算法) to “think”. Moments later, the program will create an entirely unique image that you requested. Some artists worry that they are being replaced by this technology. But other artists like to cooperate with the generator, using its power for ideas and inspiration. This powerful tool is now available to anyone through generators like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E. You can use them to create all kinds of imaginative images. 69 People find some dark side of it. Generators like Stable Diffusion are trained using images that are gathered from all over the internet. But the training process doesn’t exclude (排除) images that are violent or inappropriate, so the generators “learn” those as well. The DALL-E program comes with built-in filters that prevent it from generating perverse (变态的) images. But Stable Diffusion is an open-source technology, meaning that people can modify its code and remove the content filters. Despite this, Stable Diffusion’s founder Emad Mostaque remains optimistic about how people will use his generator. He says, “The bad stuff that people create... will be a very, very small percentage of the total use.” For better or for worse, 70 . But don’t generate anything you’d be ashamed to show your mother! A．But this technology can be dangerous as well. B．You just need to have some experience with technology as well as a proper computer. C．Therefore, AI technology will be used more and more widely in the future. D．AI text-to-image generators will become as common and easy to use as Google image search. E．Rather, it will categorize every possible detail. F．Meanwhile, the generator can help people to recognize various information accurately.

Use your own words as far as possible. （24-25高二下·上海金山·期中）Why Do You Find It So Hard to Not Multitask? Most of us do multitasking almost daily. But it’s time to change that. Let’s take the smartphone for example. On average you check your phone 110 times a day—that means you’re spending 23 days every year glued to your smartphone! How productive do you think that makes you? Habits encouraging you to multitask make you unproductive. But it’s hard to let go of these habits because you’ve conditioned your brain to send misleading signals to your body. Research has shown that when you multitask “successfully”, you activate the reward mechanism in your brain that releases dopamine, the happy hormone. You feel so good that you believe you’re being effective and this further encourages your multitasking habit. This rush can also make you overly optimistic, less careful about the work you do and more likely to make mistakes, Multitaskers basically get addicted to this rush which leads them to believe they are being effective when in fact they’re not. Since our brains can only effectively focus on one thing at a time, monotasking is the way for you to accomplish more in less time. Research has suggested you’re 50% quicker on average to accomplish a task if you monotask, and you’re also 50% less likely to make errors. So it’s a win-win for everyone! You’ll also be able to appreciate things on a deeper level and get more enjoyment from them when you’re focused. Now you’re probably desperate to find out how to get rid of this multitasking habit so you can find real productivity. There is no easy answer. You simply have to commit to it and have the self discipline to stick to one task at a time. Just say to yourself: When I walk, I walk. When I talk to someone, I talk to someone. Focus on the one thing you are doing. And like that, you’ve mastered monotasking ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.Translation (共15分。第1小题和第2小题,每题3分;第3题4分;第4题5分。) Directions:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets 72．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）外卖骑手因交通违法导致的事故屡见不鲜。(who) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ 73．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）如果你不是真的对这个比赛感兴趣，何必费口舌打听呢？（bother）（汉译英） 74．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）现代生活中，长期的压力可能对身心健康造成严重影响，因此学会管理压力至关重要。(stress) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ 75．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）面对自然灾害时，高效的应对措施不仅能减少经济损失，还能缓解民众的心理压力，这需要政府和社区的共同努力。(disaster) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ VI.Guided Writing (共25分) 76．（24-25高二下·上海松江·期中）Directions: Write an English composition in 120—150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese. 假设你是实验中学高二学生李华，你校正在开展“美丽校园计划”征集活动，现向学生征求以下两个方案的意见。请你仔细阅读方案内容，选择其中一个方案，并给校长写一封信。信中必须包含以下内容： 1）选择其中一个方案： 2）说明你推荐该方案的理由。 方案一：在图书馆设立“阅读分享角”，放置坐垫、书架等； 方案二：在教学楼走廊设立“文化展示长廊”，展示学生作品、学校历史文化、科普知识等。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共6页） 试题 第4页（共6页） 试题 第11页（共12页） 试题 第12页（共12页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高二下学期期中真题重组卷02 英 语·参考答案 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：140分） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 A B B C A D C D A D 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 A B C C B B A D A C 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 A D D B B D C A C B 题号 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 答案 A D C A C C B D C B 题号 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 答案 A D D D A C B E A D 21．whose 22．to be known 23．what 24．those 25．so 26．laughing 27．to have outgrown 28．because 29．how much 30．should 31．I 32．B 33．A 34．K 35．C 36．E 37．D 38．F 39．H 40．G 71．Multitasking reduces productivity and leads to mistakes due to the brain's addiction to dopamine-driven multitasking rushes.

How are you going with your australian studies research paper? No, good. I finished. Actually. lucky you. I'm still trying to find an interesting topic. Well, out of some consideration, I decided to look at the history of banana in australia. Banana growing, banana grown. fascinating. sure. I bet there are a few things you didn't know about bananas, such as the fact that bananas were the first plants ever to be grown. So where were these bananas first grown? According to my research, the cavin dish banana, which is the first type to be cultivated here, actually originated in china. But I had a fairly round about root before I went . to australia, and they didn't go straight from . china to america. No, IT seems that in eighteen twenty six, bananas were taken from south china to england. Thirty years later, they were brought here in australia. That sounds quite interesting, but are they hard to grow? If you plant them in rich soil, give them plenty of water at the beginning of summer, they should be well advanced by the beginning of winter. But in a country like england, they are to grow bralia. It's not difficult. no, but even here, the grow is put plastic bags around the bunches to keep the temperature. So do we export lots of bananas overseas to europe and asia, for instance? Well. strAngely enough, now they are most growing for the domestic market, which is surprising when you think that we grow an enormous number of . bananas each year. Thank you for all that information. I'm sure your paper will go really well. Let's hope so. Hi Martin, how are you going with your australian studies research paper? Oh, good. I finished IT.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Why Everyone Is Lonely One of the reasons why we tend not to make friends as often as we might come down to a powerful background idea 21 full destructive force we may not even be aware of: the belief that any decent person already has all the friends they need. Somewhere in our minds, the notion has been lodged that only very sad and incapable people would — at this stage in their lives — still have a space in their social agenda for a newcomer. Almost everyone else — anyone worthy 22 (know), talented, interesting or good — would long ago have acquired the gang to which they are now continually and hopelessly connected. 23 this punishing idea misses is the extent to which a feeling of loneliness and disenchantment (幻灭感) is in reality an ongoing and universal possibility, in no way limited to 24 of reduced appeal. Right now, the enchanting actor is (despite the crowds) perhaps lonely; 25 is the celebrated concert pianist, the renowned biologist, the skilled airline pilot, the miraculous neurosurgeon and that rather nice-looking person you have just spotted in the corner of the room 26 (laugh) animatedly with a group of fashionable companions. It’s open to anyone of sensitivity and charm to fail to find the right sort of allies, 27 (outgrow) their friends from school or university, to not have landed on agreeable spirits at work and therefore to be spending a lot of their evenings on their own. And we can know this for certain of other people 28 we know it from a very reliable source: ourselves. Other people who know us at a social level almost certainly find it hard to imagine the degree to which we are exposed to loneliness and 29 we would still like to locate a wise, tender, funny and interesting new friend. The next time we spot an interesting person, we 30 stop disobey the moral of our own lives. We don’t have exactly the right people in our social circle — and nor, most probably, do they. So we can afford to drop our false background ideas of social life — and go up and say hello. Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

The build-up to every modern Olympic Games is filled with stories about athletics tracks and swimming pools carefully designed for setting records. But any performance 31 these give are shared by all competitors. Then came the arrival of the first super shoes in 2016, which accelerated road-running events like the marathon. The launch of their “super spikes (钉鞋)” cousin a few years later is now having a similar effect on the longest races 32 inside the stadium. At first glance, this 33 in the use of super shoes appears to have sent times falling across the board, with performances once considered the mark of all-time greatness rapidly becoming 34 . But the advances in shoe technology have one crucial difference to the other technological changes that have modernized sports over the years. The benefits are not 35 distributed among competitors － even for those wearing the same shoes. With super shoes, some runners get huge boosts while others find the 36 footwear knocks them off their stride (步伐). Study after study has found that difference between “hyper-responders” － those whose physiology or running style combines with the shoes to maximum benefit － and “non-responders” 37 several percentage points. In races that are 38 decided by much less than half a percentage point, that can be the difference between gold medal and loser. This variation in the advantage given by the shoes is similar to a new Formula One racing car that is able to help left-handed people drive faster while slowing down right-handed drivers. As sports scientist Ross Tucker 39 it, it’s not only possible but likely that if you took two outstanding athletes each wearing a different pair of advanced shoes, and changed their shoes, you would get a different race result. Athletic ability is already determined in part by differences in physiology and biomechanics. The question is whether we’re now OK with differences that did not previously 40 suddenly becoming crucial as a result of new technology.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context （24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）I decided to retire my personal social website account. It all began with a detailed review of my own Instagram account. I worked out that more than 80 per cent of the photos I had posted featured my 41 . In some ways this seemed 42 . If social websites are for a simple game of showing off, these two are clearly my pride. Next, however, I examined my husband’s post for 43 . In real life, he loves the kids no less than I do. Yet between his two social website accounts, they featured in only about 25 per cent of his photos. The 44 was split between a) kitchens he had designed and b) vinyl (黑胶) records he had purchased (the former being his job, the latter his addiction). We divide our time between work and childcare in comparable proportions. Yet the 45 suggested by our online selves was quite different. According to Katrin Tiidenberg, associate professor of social media and visual culture at Tallinn University, who is publishing a forthcoming book called Sex and Social Media, this is because men and women often have different 46 for sharing information on social media. When my husband posted a photo of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska on vinyl, his aim was 47 , my conversation with Tiidenberg implied. As the words on his post suggested, he mainly wanted the world to know that the 1982 album is: “so good”. When I posted a photo of our daughter eating fish fingers in fancy dress, sure, I was 48 . She looked amazing. I was hoping that her star quality might reflect, just a little, on me. But according to Tiidenberg: “Women tend to use social media as a tool to maintain their social 49 . They take those into account when they post and when deciding how they post.” A photo of a five-year-old in fancy-dress,   50 , doesn’t just say: “so good”. It can, meanwhile, say: “Hello godmother, who we feel guilty for cancelling on the other day”, “Hello cousins, who are now in Australia and feel a little disconnected...” Tiidenberg is careful to stress that she’s “not making any essentialist argument” about women and men’s 51 for either type of content. Instead, she argues, women have always been trained to take responsibility for cultivating and managing social networks: “They’re told it’s what they’re 52 .” In the distant pre-digital past, women were 53 guardians of the family photo album. And even today, says Tiidenberg, a division of 54 labor endures within many families in our offline worlds: “Who remembers people’s birthdays, sends your mother a card and buys the Christmas presents?” The knowledge that I had also 55 responsibility for the online equivalent made me feel angry. 41．A．children B．work C．addiction D．hobbies 42．A．strange B．unnecessary C．possible D．natural 43．A．information B．development C．consideration D．comparison 44．A．reality B．remainder C．knowledge D．visibility 45．A．direction B．balance C．reason D．manner 46．A．techniques B．requirements C．procedures D．motivations 47．A．true B．correct C．simple D．vague 48．A．showing off B．taking on C．setting out D．looking aside 49．A．positions B．services C．ties D．aims 50．A．at the beginning B．in other words C．on the whole D．by contrast 51．A．preferences B．demands C．support D．search 52．A．unaware of B．afraid of C．present at D．good at 53．A．unusually B．doubtfully C．typically D．contrarily 54．A．emotional B．casual C．domestic D．physical 55．A．denied B．shifted C．assumed D．stressed Section B Directions: Read the following three passages.

He led his team to victory in the hit sketch comedy (小品) competition Amazing Night and made the top five in the stand-up comedy competition. King of Comedy (《喜剧之王单口季》). This year, he realized his dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing during middle school. Liu struggled to adapt to the new environment and felt that he had to entertain his peers during meals for lack of confidence. Humor not only helped Liu fit in socially but also shaped his career path. As Western stand-up comedy gained popularity in Beijing in 2015, he decided to jump into the industry. Liu founded the Danliren comedy club in 2017 with three keen stand-up fans. Each year, he would make his brand-new solo stand-up comedy show lasting over an hour, becoming a key feature of the club. However, as online stand-up comedy competitions gained popularity in China, Liu’s peers soon found fame through their appearances on these hit shows. This made Liu feel anxious and overshadowed by his fellow comedians. “Sometimes, I can’t help but feel envious of others.” Liu admitted. In one of his sketch shows, he reimagined the classic novel Journey to the West, focusing on Sha Wujing, a character with a smaller role in the original tale. His adaptation symbolized those who quietly do their duties without receiving much recognition. “Performing sketch has restored my sensitivity to life,” he said. Liu has maintained a very busy work style. In one day, he would fit in three stand-up comedy performances in Beijing, hit the gym and fly to Shanghai for the live recording of King of Comedy. He no longer does these activities out of anxiety, but continues to work hard. “There is never a moment that truly proves oneself. For creators, the only thing to do is to do one’s best in the process, and that’s all,” he said. 56．According to the passage, what made Liu Yang start to enter the stand-up comedy industry? A．His success in the sketch comedy competition. B．His experience of moving from Inner Mongolia to Beijing. C．The popularity of Western stand-up comedy in Beijing in 2015. D．His dream of performing at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. 57．The underlined word “overshadowed” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A．encouraged B．made less important C．applauded D．made more famous 58．What is the main idea of Paragraph 5? A．Liu Yang’s adaptation of the classic novel Journey to the West. B．The role of Sha Wujing in Journey to the West. C．How Liu Yang overcame his anxiety. D．The influence of performing sketch on Liu Yang. 59．We can infer from the passage that Liu Yang ________. A．is always confident in his comedy career B．will stop performing stand-up comedy C．believes in the value of trying best in the process D．thinks highly of his appearance on King of Comedy B （25-26高二下·上海闵行·月考）United Nations      Careers Home The UN Workforce Pay and Benefits Career Journeys Career Options How to Apply Apply Now Home > How To Apply Application Process Creating Your Job Application FAQs on preparing your Application Q: Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening (JO)?

A mature red pine (松树) is a tall, straight overstory tree that thrives in cold winters and cool summers. It’s the official Minnesota state tree and a valued target of its timber industry. But red pine’s days of dominance here could fade. In coming decades, climate change will make red pine and other Northwoods trees increasingly vulnerable to destructive combinations of longer, warmer summers and less extremely cold winters, as well as droughts, windstorms, wildfires and insect infestations. Climate change is altering ecological conditions in cold regions faster than trees can adapt or migrate. Palik, a forest ecologist, stops and points to a newcomer under the red-pine canopy: a broadleaf deciduous tree. “It’s doing really well,” he says. This tree probably shouldn’t be thriving here. Normally, if a southern adapted seedling (幼苗) is planted in an unsuitably cold climate like this one, it can risk frost damage, and its survival is threatened. But the newcomer’s lush, green foliage indicates good health. It is a promising sign in a project that aims to keep forests growing in a warming world. Palik’s project is an experiment in forest assisted migration, the relocation of trees to help woodlands adapt and flourish despite the heating of their habitats from climate change. Foresters advocating assisted migration are typically not aiming to save specific species — instead, by moving trees, they want to help sustain productive forest for multiple benefits such as carbon storage, water filtration, wildlife habitat, recreational beauty and timber. Now, assisted migration research for conservation is getting bolder with growing concerns about future forest disruption from climate change. And the movement is growing internationally, with research happening in Spain, Canada, Mexico, etc. Moreover, recent proposals have called for relocating endangered species to new habitats where they would have a better chance of thriving: Mexican gray wolves to northern parts of Arizona, New Mexico or Texas, for example, or Karner blue butterflies farther north from southern Michigan. However, artificially moving a forest, some biologists say, has risks. Relocated species might become invasive or disrupt the ecological balance of the forest. But, says Palik, “the risk of not trying to move species for climate change is larger”. “Forests die fast and grow slowly,” says Lee Frelich, a forest ecologist at the University of Minnesota Center for Forest Ecology. As climate change continues, he says, some forests could vanish, replaced by encroaching (渐渐渗入的) grasslands that do not provide the types of wildlife habitat and other benefits that healthy forests do. “Your only option in that case,” he says, “is to bring in new species or live with whatever nature does,” which — in cases of extreme climate change “is likely to be brushy vegetation and not be a forest for quite some time.” 63．How does climate change affect the Northwoods region of Minnesota? A．By decreasing the length of the growing season. B．By reducing the occurrence of droughts and wildfires. C．By increasing the frequency of extremely cold winters. D．By changing the living condition of the tree species there. 64．What is a key consideration for Brian Palik when deciding which trees to plant? A．Focusing exclusively on planting trees that aren’t native to the area. B．Planting the tallest and fastest-growing trees to quickly restore the forest. C．Choosing trees that are the most economically valuable for timber production. D．Selecting species that can thrive in the changing climate conditions expected in the future. 65．What is the primary goal of assisted migration? A．To ensure that forests remain productive and provide ecosystem services. B．To preserve specific endangered species in their original habitats. C．To maintain the aesthetic beauty of forests for tourism. D．To increase the profitability of the timber industry. 66．Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A．The practice of forest assisted migration is bound to be carried out on a larger scale globally. B．Scientists’ concerns over forest disruption stem from the economic losses in the timber industry. C．Forest assisted migration appears to be a necessary attempt to maintain forest ecosystems. D．Relocated species will always outcompete native species, leading to biodiversity loss.

With the power of artificial intelligence (AI) text-to-image generators, you can create images just like that — without any art skills. 67 Then How does it work? AI text-to-image generators are trained through a process called machine learning. In this process, the generator’s “brain” is fed massive numbers of images and learns to distinguish what they are. But the generator doesn’t just learn to tell the difference between a banana and a balloon. 68 These pixel-level details are then stored in a mathematical space. When someone gives the generator a text passage such as “Doraemon riding a white horse,” the program uses algorithms (算法) to “think”. Moments later, the program will create an entirely unique image that you requested. Some artists worry that they are being replaced by this technology. But other artists like to cooperate with the generator, using its power for ideas and inspiration. This powerful tool is now available to anyone through generators like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E. You can use them to create all kinds of imaginative images. 69 People find some dark side of it. Generators like Stable Diffusion are trained using images that are gathered from all over the internet. But the training process doesn’t exclude (排除) images that are violent or inappropriate, so the generators “learn” those as well. The DALL-E program comes with built-in filters that prevent it from generating perverse (变态的) images. But Stable Diffusion is an open-source technology, meaning that people can modify its code and remove the content filters. Despite this, Stable Diffusion’s founder Emad Mostaque remains optimistic about how people will use his generator. He says, “The bad stuff that people create... will be a very, very small percentage of the total use.” For better or for worse, 70 . But don’t generate anything you’d be ashamed to show your mother! A．But this technology can be dangerous as well. B．You just need to have some experience with technology as well as a proper computer. C．Therefore, AI technology will be used more and more widely in the future. D．AI text-to-image generators will become as common and easy to use as Google image search. E．Rather, it will categorize every possible detail. F．Meanwhile, the generator can help people to recognize various information accurately.

Let’s take the smartphone for example. On average you check your phone 110 times a day—that means you’re spending 23 days every year glued to your smartphone! How productive do you think that makes you? Habits encouraging you to multitask make you unproductive. But it’s hard to let go of these habits because you’ve conditioned your brain to send misleading signals to your body. Research has shown that when you multitask “successfully”, you activate the reward mechanism in your brain that releases dopamine, the happy hormone. You feel so good that you believe you’re being effective and this further encourages your multitasking habit. This rush can also make you overly optimistic, less careful about the work you do and more likely to make mistakes, Multitaskers basically get addicted to this rush which leads them to believe they are being effective when in fact they’re not. Since our brains can only effectively focus on one thing at a time, monotasking is the way for you to accomplish more in less time. Research has suggested you’re 50% quicker on average to accomplish a task if you monotask, and you’re also 50% less likely to make errors. So it’s a win-win for everyone! You’ll also be able to appreciate things on a deeper level and get more enjoyment from them when you’re focused. Now you’re probably desperate to find out how to get rid of this multitasking habit so you can find real productivity. There is no easy answer. You simply have to commit to it and have the self discipline to stick to one task at a time. Just say to yourself: When I walk, I walk. When I talk to someone, I talk to someone. Focus on the one thing you are doing. And like that, you’ve mastered monotasking ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.Translation (共15分。第1小题和第2小题,每题3分;第3题4分;第4题5分。) Directions:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets 72．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）外卖骑手因交通违法导致的事故屡见不鲜。(who) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ 73．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）如果你不是真的对这个比赛感兴趣，何必费口舌打听呢？（bother）（汉译英） 74．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）现代生活中，长期的压力可能对身心健康造成严重影响，因此学会管理压力至关重要。(stress) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ 75．（24-25高二下·上海嘉定·期中）面对自然灾害时，高效的应对措施不仅能减少经济损失，还能缓解民众的心理压力，这需要政府和社区的共同努力。(disaster) (汉译英) ________________________________________________________________ VI.Guided Writing (共25分) 76．（24-25高二下·上海松江·期中）Directions: Write an English composition in 120—150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese. 假设你是实验中学高二学生李华，你校正在开展“美丽校园计划”征集活动，现向学生征求以下两个方案的意见。请你仔细阅读方案内容，选择其中一个方案，并给校长写一封信。信中必须包含以下内容： 1）选择其中一个方案： 2）说明你推荐该方案的理由。 方案一：在图书馆设立“阅读分享角”，放置坐垫、书架等； 方案二：在教学楼走廊设立“文化展示长廊”，展示学生作品、学校历史文化、科普知识等。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
