B On a cold and gray morning, Lidia D’ Amico, a biologist from the National Park Service, walked around the island roads as usual with her telescope and radio. She usually watched birds during her daily walk. On this day, however, she saw something unusual: a “big figure” resting on a rock on the island’s northwest side. A closer look showed the unknown object to be a baby sea lion, which was a rare sighting on the rock, and especially so far away out of the water. “This little guy had struggled hard to climb all the way up the rocks and lay there without a move, as if he had lost all his strength.” D’ Amico explained. The island is not a good place for mammals (哺乳类) to live, since it’s exposed to severe conditions and lacks clean water all year round. A small rock around 100 yards off the north side of the island, called “Little Alcatraz”, is used by 7 to 8 seals during low tide. The island is home to birds. Upon returning a few hours later to check on the poor creature, D’ Amico found the sea lion still keeping still and waiting for help. She called the Marine Mammal Center for help. Even with the help of fellow park workers, it took great effort to load the 40-pound baby into a box and then they transferred him to The Marine Mammal Center. Once safely ashore, the baby was picked up by the staff from The Marine Mammal Center, who transported him to their animal hospital in the Headlands. For the first month after his rescue, the little baby’s condition was so weak and he refused to eat, recovering slowly. However, with treatment and enough food provided by the staff, he gradually cheered up and began to put on weight. After two months of treatment, a fat and healthy sea lion could take small steps happily. The once weak and ill-fed baby had got well and was ready to return to the wild. Recovered, the lucky sea lion returned to the sea and started its new life with a new name: Alcatraz, the sea lion. 4. Why was the baby sea lion a rare sight on the rock? A. The rock is too high for sea lions to climb. B. There is no clean water for sea lions on the island. C. The island is mainly a habitat for birds, not mammals. D. No sea animals are allowed to rest on the rock. 5. What happened to the sea lion after two months of treatment? A. It stayed in the hospital forever. B. It became healthy and returned to the sea. C. It still couldn’t move or eat. D. It was sent to a new island. 6. Who took the baby sea lion to the animal hospital? A. Lidia D’ Amico. B. Fellow park workers. C. Local fishermen. D. Staff from the Marine Mammal Center. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Protect Sea Lions B. The Struggling Life of a Sea Lion C. Lidia D’ Amico’s Discovery D. The Rescue of a Sea Lion C AI has made its way into almost every field, and according to Abta’s latest Holiday Habits report, the travel industry is no exception. The rate of people using AI to get some travel ideas has doubled in the past 12 months, up to 8 percent from 4 percent. The survey of 2,001 people also showed that younger generations are leading the way in using AI. The largest age group is 25-to-34-year-olds, with 18 percent looking for travel ideas through AI. That number drops to 13 percent for 18-to-24-year-olds. And only 3 percent of 55-to-64-year-olds are using AI for holiday tips. However, AI has not taken over just yet when it comes to researching trips, as Internet searches (48 percent) and recommendations from friends and family (41 percent) still remain the most common ways to choose where to go. In fact, people taking more traditional routes, such as looking through holiday brochures, still take up 25 percent. Abta says that AI will continue to grow when it comes to trip planning. Holidaymakers have already shown a level of trust in AI for making travel decisions. 43 percent people in the survey said they would be confident to some degree in letting an AI tool plan their holiday, with this number dropping to just 38 percent letting the tool book their trip for them. Travel industry leaders state that AI will continue to be a big part of what customers do before they make a travel decision. According to them, AI will greatly influence the travel industry, but travellers still want to communicate with a travel company before booking trips. Travel companies will not vanish anytime soon, because of that group of customers who think it’s necessary to go in and look someone in the eye when they’re booking something. 8. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By providing figures. C. By making comparisons. D. By explaining causes. 9. What is the most popular way for people to plan their trips? A. Turning to AI for travel ideas. B. Turning to friends and family for advice. C. Searching for information on the Internet. D. Reading through printed holiday brochures. 10. What does the underlined word “vanish” in the last paragraph most probably mean? A. Come into being. B. Die out. C. Take up. D. Show up. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. AI’s fast development in modern technology. B. AI’s growing part in travel planning. C. Young people’s strong preference for new technology. D. Difficulties traditional travel companies are facing. D How do you beat the summer heat? If you’re like most people, you turn the air conditioning on when it’s the hottest time of the day. But what if you could use nonpeak (非高峰的) electrical hours and store the cold to use the next day? This idea has become a reality for a New York City high-rise that’s being cooled by ice. Eleven Madison, a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan, is using cool, frozen ice overnight to cool the building, reported CBS News. Four stories below ground, an ice battery system freezes water during the night, when electrical use is low, and uses this ice to cool the building during the day. “There’s about 500,000 pounds of ice created every night,” said Holly Paeper, president of Trane Technologies, a company that did the installation (装置). Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that. According to Paeper, the company has installed the technology in about 4,000 sites worldwide. The system in the basement of Eleven Madison uses 100 tanks that are each the size of a parking spot. Because there’s a lot of energy consumed in freezing water, a more effective way had to be found. “We take water, and add some other elements in it,” explained Dr. Patrick Shamberger, an associate professor at Texas A&M. “So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.” While ice batteries aren’t being used to cool food or to power electrical devices, they’re being used to cool buildings. For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. It’s a win-win for all. 12. What is special about the cooling way of Eleven Madison? A. It uses ice made at night to cool the building in the daytime. B. It depends on traditional air conditioning all day long. C. It makes full use of renewable energy to produce electricity. D. It stores cold air from winter and uses it in hot summer. 13. Why is the ice battery system developed according to the text? A. To replace all the traditional air conditioners. B. To help companies make more money from technology. C. To save energy and reduce electricity costs. D. To deal with the shortage of water resources. 14. What can we learn about the ice battery system from Paragraph 4? A. It takes too much space to be widely used. B. It can work within a wide range of temperature. C. It uses pure water without other elements. D. It costs little energy to freeze water. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward the ice battery system? A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Uncaring. 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。 Poyang Lake: A Paradise for Migratory (迁徙的) Birds On a viewing platform at Poyang Lake, a group of students are excitedly watching thousands of birds flying and resting in the wetlands. This lively scene is the result of China’s great efforts in wetland protection. Poyang Lake, China’s largest freshwater lake, serves as a vital stop on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.

The store was known for its all kinds of products. One summer holiday, I was busy helping customers to find what they needed. I always greeted them warmly at the door, and customers thanked it as good service. I also helped them to carry heavy things to their cars, but my parents strictly told me not to accept tips or any gifts. One day, an elderly lady visited the store. At first sight, I was attracted by her. She was neatly (整洁地) dressed, looking polite and friendly. She lived in a nearby senior apartment and wanted to buy some chairs for her garden. After a short search, I found some chairs that met her needs. She bought two chairs and asked if I could help send them to her home, which was very close. Thinking of her old age, I agreed and carried the chairs to her building. As soon as we arrived, she welcomed me warmly and showed me where to place the chairs. Before I could thank her for shopping in my parents’ store, she shocked me by giving me some candy. Then, to my surprise, she gave me an educational book. I politely refused it, explaining that I couldn’t accept any presents. However, she put the book in my hand and said with a smile, “If your parents don’t want you to have this, just don’t tell them. Let me tell them instead.” We both laughed, and I thanked her kindness. Finally, I accepted the book. 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。 Paragraph 1: That night, I couldn’t wait to open the book and read it carefully. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A few days later, I met the elderly lady again in the store. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

It is an ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering wonderful opportunities for hiking, boating and getting close to nature.(湖区位于英格兰北部，以其令人惊叹的自然风光而闻名，包括清澈的湖泊、连绵起伏的山脉和茂密的森林。它是户外运动爱好者的理想去处，提供了徒步旅行、划船和亲近自然的绝佳机会。)”可知，湖区以其令人惊叹的自然风光而闻名，是户外运动爱好者的理想去处。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Britain is home to a great many amazing scenic spots and cultural sites that attract millions of tourists from all over the world every year. Here are four of the most well-received destinations for visitors.(英国拥有许多令人惊叹的景点和文化遗址，每年吸引着来自世界各地的数百万游客。以下是四个最受游客欢迎的目的地。)”可知，这四个景点都反映了英国丰富的历史和文化。 B On a cold and gray morning, Lidia D’ Amico, a biologist from the National Park Service, walked around the island roads as usual with her telescope and radio. She usually watched birds during her daily walk. On this day, however, she saw something unusual: a “big figure” resting on a rock on the island’s northwest side. A closer look showed the unknown object to be a baby sea lion, which was a rare sighting on the rock, and especially so far away out of the water. “This little guy had struggled hard to climb all the way up the rocks and lay there without a move, as if he had lost all his strength.” D’ Amico explained. The island is not a good place for mammals (哺乳类) to live, since it’s exposed to severe conditions and lacks clean water all year round. A small rock around 100 yards off the north side of the island, called “Little Alcatraz”, is used by 7 to 8 seals during low tide. The island is home to birds. Upon returning a few hours later to check on the poor creature, D’ Amico found the sea lion still keeping still and waiting for help. She called the Marine Mammal Center for help. Even with the help of fellow park workers, it took great effort to load the 40-pound baby into a box and then they transferred him to The Marine Mammal Center. Once safely ashore, the baby was picked up by the staff from The Marine Mammal Center, who transported him to their animal hospital in the Headlands. For the first month after his rescue, the little baby’s condition was so weak and he refused to eat, recovering slowly. However, with treatment and enough food provided by the staff, he gradually cheered up and began to put on weight. After two months of treatment, a fat and healthy sea lion could take small steps happily. The once weak and ill-fed baby had got well and was ready to return to the wild. Recovered, the lucky sea lion returned to the sea and started its new life with a new name: Alcatraz, the sea lion. 4. Why was the baby sea lion a rare sight on the rock? A. The rock is too high for sea lions to climb. B. There is no clean water for sea lions on the island. C. The island is mainly a habitat for birds, not mammals. D. No sea animals are allowed to rest on the rock. 5. What happened to the sea lion after two months of treatment? A. It stayed in the hospital forever. B. It became healthy and returned to the sea. C. It still couldn’t move or eat. D. It was sent to a new island. 6. Who took the baby sea lion to the animal hospital? A. Lidia D’ Amico. B. Fellow park workers. C. Local fishermen. D. Staff from the Marine Mammal Center. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Protect Sea Lions B. The Struggling Life of a Sea Lion C. Lidia D’ Amico’s Discovery D. The Rescue of a Sea Lion 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了生物学家Lidia发现并救助了一只搁浅在岩石上的小海狮，最终小海狮恢复健康重返大海的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The island is not a good place for mammals (哺乳类) to live, since it’s exposed to severe conditions and lacks clean water all year round. The island is home to birds.(这个岛屿不是一个适合哺乳动物居住的好地方，因为它面临着恶劣的环境，而且全年缺乏清洁的水。这个岛屿是鸟类的家园)”可知，这个岛屿主要是鸟类的栖息地，不是哺乳动物的，所以小海狮出现在岩石上是罕见的。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“After two months of treatment, a fat and healthy sea lion could take small steps happily. The once weak and ill-fed baby had got well and was ready to return to the wild.(经过两个月的治疗，一只肥胖健康的小海狮可以快乐地迈着小步。这只曾经虚弱且营养不良的小海狮已经康复，准备重返野外)”可知，经过两个月的治疗，小海狮变得健康并返回了大海。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Once safely ashore, the baby was picked up by the staff from The Marine Mammal Center, who transported him to their animal hospital in the Headlands.(一安全上岸，这只小海狮就被海洋哺乳动物中心的工作人员接走，他们把他送到了位于Headlands的动物医院)”可知，是海洋哺乳动物中心的工作人员把小海狮送到了动物医院。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要围绕小海狮的被发现、被救助以及最终康复返回大海的过程展开，所以“The Rescue of a Sea Lion(一只小海狮的救援)”最能概括文章主旨，适合用作标题。 C AI has made its way into almost every field, and according to Abta’s latest Holiday Habits report, the travel industry is no exception. The rate of people using AI to get some travel ideas has doubled in the past 12 months, up to 8 percent from 4 percent. The survey of 2,001 people also showed that younger generations are leading the way in using AI. The largest age group is 25-to-34-year-olds, with 18 percent looking for travel ideas through AI. That number drops to 13 percent for 18-to-24-year-olds. And only 3 percent of 55-to-64-year-olds are using AI for holiday tips. However, AI has not taken over just yet when it comes to researching trips, as Internet searches (48 percent) and recommendations from friends and family (41 percent) still remain the most common ways to choose where to go. In fact, people taking more traditional routes, such as looking through holiday brochures, still take up 25 percent. Abta says that AI will continue to grow when it comes to trip planning. Holidaymakers have already shown a level of trust in AI for making travel decisions. 43 percent people in the survey said they would be confident to some degree in letting an AI tool plan their holiday, with this number dropping to just 38 percent letting the tool book their trip for them. Travel industry leaders state that AI will continue to be a big part of what customers do before they make a travel decision. According to them, AI will greatly influence the travel industry, but travellers still want to communicate with a travel company before booking trips. Travel companies will not vanish anytime soon, because of that group of customers who think it’s necessary to go in and look someone in the eye when they’re booking something. 8. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By providing figures. C. By making comparisons. D. By explaining causes. 9. What is the most popular way for people to plan their trips? A. Turning to AI for travel ideas. B. Turning to friends and family for advice. C. Searching for information on the Internet. D. Reading through printed holiday brochures. 10. What does the underlined word “vanish” in the last paragraph most probably mean? A. Come into being. B. Die out. C. Take up. D. Show up. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. AI’s fast development in modern technology. B. AI’s growing part in travel planning. C. Young people’s strong preference for new technology. D. Difficulties traditional travel companies are facing. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了人工智能在旅行规划中日益增长的作用及现状。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The largest age group is 25-to-34-year-olds, with 18 percent looking for travel ideas through AI. That number drops to 13 percent for 18-to-24-year-olds. And only 3 percent of 55-to-64-year-olds are using AI for holiday tips.(最大的年龄组是25至34岁的人群，其中有18%的人通过人工智能寻找旅行灵感。18至24岁的人群中，这一比例降至13%。而55至64岁的人群中，只有3%的人使用人工智能来获取假期建议)”可知，第二段主要通过提供数字来展开论述，说明了不同年龄段使用人工智能寻找旅行灵感的比例。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, AI has not taken over just yet when it comes to researching trips, as Internet searches (48 percent) and recommendations from friends and family (41 percent) still remain the most common ways to choose where to go.(然而，在研究旅行方面，人工智能还没有完全取代其他方式，因为互联网搜索（48%）和亲朋好友的建议（41%）仍然是选择目的地最常见的方式)”可知，人们计划旅行最受欢迎的方式是在互联网上搜索信息。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“According to them, AI will greatly influence the travel industry, but travellers still want to communicate with a travel company before booking trips. Travel companies will not vanish anytime soon, because of that group of customers who think it’s necessary to go in and look someone in the eye when they’re booking something.(据他们说，人工智能将极大地影响旅游业，但旅行者在预订旅行前仍然希望与旅行社进行沟通。旅行社不会很快vanish，因为有一群顾客认为在预订东西时有必要进去与某人面对面交流)”可知，由于有些顾客认为在预订旅行时有必要与旅行社面对面交流，所以旅行社不会很快消失。因此，“vanish”在此处的意思是“消失，灭绝”，与“Die out”意思相近。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了人工智能在旅行规划中的日益增长的作用，包括不同年龄段使用人工智能的比例、人们计划旅行的常见方式以及人工智能对旅游业的影响等。因此，文章的主旨大意是人工智能在旅行规划中日益增长的作用。 D How do you beat the summer heat? If you’re like most people, you turn the air conditioning on when it’s the hottest time of the day. But what if you could use nonpeak (非高峰的) electrical hours and store the cold to use the next day? This idea has become a reality for a New York City high-rise that’s being cooled by ice. Eleven Madison, a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan, is using cool, frozen ice overnight to cool the building, reported CBS News. Four stories below ground, an ice battery system freezes water during the night, when electrical use is low, and uses this ice to cool the building during the day. “There’s about 500,000 pounds of ice created every night,” said Holly Paeper, president of Trane Technologies, a company that did the installation (装置). Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that. According to Paeper, the company has installed the technology in about 4,000 sites worldwide. The system in the basement of Eleven Madison uses 100 tanks that are each the size of a parking spot. Because there’s a lot of energy consumed in freezing water, a more effective way had to be found. “We take water, and add some other elements in it,” explained Dr. Patrick Shamberger, an associate professor at Texas A&M. “So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.” While ice batteries aren’t being used to cool food or to power electrical devices, they’re being used to cool buildings. For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. It’s a win-win for all. 12. What is special about the cooling way of Eleven Madison? A. It uses ice made at night to cool the building in the daytime. B. It depends on traditional air conditioning all day long. C. It makes full use of renewable energy to produce electricity. D. It stores cold air from winter and uses it in hot summer. 13. Why is the ice battery system developed according to the text? A. To replace all the traditional air conditioners. B. To help companies make more money from technology. C. To save energy and reduce electricity costs. D. To deal with the shortage of water resources. 14. What can we learn about the ice battery system from Paragraph 4? A. It takes too much space to be widely used. B. It can work within a wide range of temperature. C. It uses pure water without other elements. D. It costs little energy to freeze water. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward the ice battery system? A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Uncaring. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了纽约曼哈顿一栋摩天大楼采用冰电池制冷系统。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Eleven Madison, a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan, is using cool, frozen ice overnight to cool the building, reported CBS News. Four stories below ground, an ice battery system freezes water during the night, when electrical use is low, and uses this ice to cool the building during the day.(据哥伦比亚广播公司新闻报道，位于曼哈顿中心的摩天大楼Eleven Madison正在利用夜间冷冻的冰块为大楼降温。在地下四层，一个冰电池系统在夜间电力使用低的时候冻结水，并在白天使用这些冰来冷却大楼。)”可知，Eleven Madison的冷却方式特别之处在于它利用夜间制造的冰在白天冷却建筑物。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that. According to Paeper, the company has installed the technology in about 4,000 sites worldwide.(空调在全球家庭和企业中的能源使用量占近20%。然而，在极端炎热的日子里，这个数字可能会跃升至70%。像Eleven Madison这样的安装有助于降低这一比例。据Paeper说，该公司已经在全球约4000个地点安装了这项技术。)”可知，开发冰电池系统是为了节约能源和降低电费。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.(因此，我们基本上可以在0到20摄氏度的任何范围内控制温度)”可知，冰电池系统可以在很宽的温度范围内工作。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. It’s a win-win for all.(目前，将冰电池与其他类型的可再生能源存储相结合，可以帮助电网在炎热天气下保持运行，并降低电费。这对所有人来说都是双赢的。)”可知，作者对冰电池系统的态度是积极的。 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。 Poyang Lake: A Paradise for Migratory (迁徙的) Birds On a viewing platform at Poyang Lake, a group of students are excitedly watching thousands of birds flying and resting in the wetlands.

The store was known for its all kinds of products. One summer holiday, I was busy helping customers to find what they needed. I always greeted them warmly at the door, and customers thanked it as good service. I also helped them to carry heavy things to their cars, but my parents strictly told me not to accept tips or any gifts. One day, an elderly lady visited the store. At first sight, I was attracted by her. She was neatly (整洁地) dressed, looking polite and friendly. She lived in a nearby senior apartment and wanted to buy some chairs for her garden. After a short search, I found some chairs that met her needs. She bought two chairs and asked if I could help send them to her home, which was very close. Thinking of her old age, I agreed and carried the chairs to her building. As soon as we arrived, she welcomed me warmly and showed me where to place the chairs. Before I could thank her for shopping in my parents’ store, she shocked me by giving me some candy. Then, to my surprise, she gave me an educational book. I politely refused it, explaining that I couldn’t accept any presents. However, she put the book in my hand and said with a smile, “If your parents don’t want you to have this, just don’t tell them. Let me tell them instead.” We both laughed, and I thanked her kindness. Finally, I accepted the book. 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。 Paragraph 1: That night, I couldn’t wait to open the book and read it carefully. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A few days later, I met the elderly lady again in the store. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: That night, I couldn't wait to open the book and read it carefully. The moment I turned the first page, I found it was full of interesting stories and useful knowledge.
