Gharials were in such a condition due to increased fishing in their living areas- fish were caught in large numbers-gharials sometimes couldn't find enough food. Gharials were hunted for their skins,for use in traditional medicine and so on. Many lost their living places. Conservation efforts began in the 1970s when the Indian government started a program that built the National Chambal Sanctuary in 1978.The next year,some gharials were put into the Chambal River.Other rivers,including the Gandaki,were added.The Gandaki River is a good place for the gharials because it has sandbanks and wetlands. Since 2016,nests have been found every year with help from local farmers and fishermen who then help to protect gharials."Members of the community were trained by experts to watch and help gharials,"said Samir Kumar Sinha,head of conservation at the Wildlife Trust of India(WTD. A 2018 survey by the WTI recorded more than 160 gharials in the Gandaki River. The organization also found 20 baby gharials.Now,the gharials are being found in other parts of India and in parts of Nepal.In fact,they are found in the Kosi River in India for the first time in 50 years.They are still endangered but now there is hope that the animals will begin to make a comeback. 11.What happened to gharials according to the first paragraph? A.Their number dropped a lot.B.They lived a much shorter life C.They changed their food choice.D.Their living environment was polluted. 12.What does the information in Paragraphs 3 and 4 suggest? A.Gharials lead a life of adventure. B.Local people work together to protect gharials. 高二年级英语科试卷第2页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App C.People have to take care of gharials because of orders. D.Gharials were put into different rivers to attract visitors. 13.How is the result of the conservation efforts? A.It is uncertain. B.It is worrying C.It is successful. D.It is unsatisfactory. B With artificial intelligence (AD and robotic technology improving at impressive rates,there are some who worry that there's a risk of artistic and creative people being replaced.A new study by the Korean Institute of Industrial Technology, however,is showing exactly why that can't and shouldn't happen.It all started when the South Korean company posed this question:Can robots replace conductors? Over a year ago,work to develop automaton (began.At first,it was designed like a machine,and didn't live up to expectations.Then the company sought ways to improve it.In the end,it was given two arms with joints to copy wrists and elbows,allowing it to move a stick similarly to how a human conductor would move it.It was named the EverR 6 robot,and stands at 1.8 meters.It was finally time to figure out how it could follow through on its musical role. "We got involved in this project to see how far robots can go in more creative fields like the arts,and what the challenges are,"Dong-wook Lee,a senior researcher at the Korean Institute of Industrial Technology said. In order to pull this off,Dong-wook Lee cooperated with the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.The 12-minute piece they planned to perform-"Feel"by Il-hoon Son,was created specifically for this event.It was created with the strengths of both EverR 6 and the human conductor,Soo-yeol Choi,in mind. To pull off this impressive performance,the robot was preprogrammed to conduct through 30 cycles of beat patterns.Meanwhile,it was up to the human conductor to lead the orchestra in creating an improvisational (score, adding depth to the otherwise planned piece.Together,they pulled off a masterful performance that the audience seemed more than happy to have had the opportunity to witness it firsthand! With the concert having gone so well,this is only the start of EverR 6.Still,no matter the improvements they're able to make to this robot,the human conductor isn't concerned about being replaced."Let's leave the accuracy to the robots," 高二年级英语科试卷第3页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP Soo-yeol Choi said,"but the musical and artistic aspects to a human conductor." 14.What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A The function of the EverR 6 robot. B.The development of the EverR 6 robot. C.The EverR 6 robot's role as a conductor. D.The difficulty in designing the EverR 6 robot 15.What can be learned about“℉ee? A.It is a piece familiar to the audience. B.It is a piece requiring great ability to conduct. C.It is the only piece that EverR 6 will perform D.It is a piece showing the human-robot cooperation. 16.What role did Soo-yeol Choi play in the performance? A.He corrected the robot's mistakes. B.He programmed the EverR 6 robot. C.He was the main conductor of the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra. D.He led the improvisational section of the performance. C Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work,but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track. But while it's long been believed that endorphins(内啡肽)一chemicals in the body that cause happiness-are behind the so-called "runner's high",a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities,a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids(内源性大庥素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory,the scientists turned to mice.Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise.After exercising on running wheels,the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety.But after being given a drug to block their endorphins,the mice's behavior didn't seem to change.However,when their endocannabinoids were blocked with a different drug,their runners'high symptoms seemed to fade. "The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner's high is false.Endorphins are effective pain relievers,but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,"Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on 高二年级英语科试卷第4页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP science blog Lifchacker. Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans,but it's already known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety.The UK's National Health Service even prescribes (exercise to patients who are suffering from depression."Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy,which might put you off being more active.Regular exercise can improve your mood if you have depression,and its especially useful for people with mild to moderate 等的)depression,”it wrote on its website. It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout,even if we don't fully understand where it comes from.At least if we're feeling down,we know that all we have to do is to put on our running shoes. 17.What did scientists from German universities recently discover? A.Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression. B.The runner's high could be caused by endocannabinoids. C.Endorphins may contribute to one's high spirits after running. D.The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one's mood. 18.Why did the scientists give mice drugs in their experiment? A.To find what reduces the runner's high symptoms. B.To see the specific symptoms of the runner's high. C.To identify what is responsible for the runner's high. D.To test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released. 19.What does the underlined word"notion"mean? A.Effect.B.Goal.C.Opinion. D.Question 20.What can we know about regular workouts according to the UK's National Health Service? A.They can help ease depression symptoms. B.They are the best way to treat depression. C.They only work for those with serious depression. D.They can help people completely recover from depression. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中 有两项为多余选项。 People have a responsibility to safeguard their personal health and wellness._21Here are four important tips to always keep in mind in order to 高二年级英语科试卷第5页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP protect your own health and happiness: ●Schedule in“Me Time'” -22Regardless of your job or family situation,it's vital to set aside some time each day just for yourself.Whether that's an hour on the golf course,or a quick walk around the park,having time by yourself is important to your mental state. ●Get Plenty of Rest Rest is often ignored by people.23_What's more,many people are impatient and don't want to rest after injuries,surgeries,or accidents.No matter how badly you want to get back to the office or the gym,be sure to play it safe and never return to action too soon after a layoff.

Luckily,the Wilsons,my host family,did everything they could to help me settle in-driving me around,sharing meals,and even letting me use their kitchen when I missed Chinese food.With their warmth and support,everything seemed to fall into place. But at school,small moments felt bigger than I'd imagined.In our first literature class,we discussed a Hemingway story.Everyone jumped in actively,while I struggled to speak up.My desk-mate encouraged me,"Next time,just speak up."I nodded,forcing a bitter smile. And just like that,I found myself in another cultural trap,Mrs.Wilson's birthday dinner.At the table,I answered politely but kept mostly to myself.Mrs.Wilson noticed my silence and gently asked,"You alright,sweet girl?You're so quiet tonight.My face reddened.Was my silence seen as cold,rather than polite? That night,restless'and wide awake,I wondered if I needed to laugh louder, speak faster,or hide parts of myself just to feel I belonged.Questions flooded my mind,none with answers. A few days later,our teacher announced there would be a Culture Festival next week."You'll prepare a stand (to share your own culture-food,crafts, customs...anything meaningful.You can not only display your culture but also make it interactive,allowing people to try new things,learn traditional skills,or share stories and cultural symbols,"she said.The class lit up with excitement.I sat frozen,mind racing:how could I share my traditions in English?The thought made my stomach twisted ()Yet,I gathered myself with a deep breath and signed up. After that,I threw myself wholeheartedly into preparations,until the day finally came. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 高二年级英语科试卷第10页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP Paragraph 1:At the Culture Festival,I stood behind my stand,nervous but ready.
