In all its 173 rooms, waste water is recycled through a hi-tech cleaning system. The hotel’s award-winning Salvia restaurant uses fruit and vegetables from its own gardens and greenhouse. During the summer there is an outdoor pool in perfect harmony with the green mountains. Other activities include hiking, horse-riding and bird-watching. Doubles from €178(breakfast included) Hotel Fljótshlíd Located in South Iceland, Hotel Fljótshlíd has 14 rooms, all of which have heated floors and private bathrooms, all powered by renewable energy. Guests can plant trees to offset(抵消) their carbon footprints, and the hotel is aiming for zero food waste. There are views of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, and guests can go horse-riding or tour the working farm. Doubles from €108(breakfast included) Montimesso SkyScape Country House It has 15 rooms, all with contemporary Portuguese furniture and balconies. Rainwater is collected and processed for daily use. Because of its dark sky location, light pollution has been reduced. The staff are mostly from the local Alentejo region. The biggest draw here is the sky — guests can use telescopes to look at distant stars and planets from its platform. Doubles from €198(breakfast included) Wren Urban Nest Opened last September, Wren Urban Nest in Dublin makes an effort to limit single-use plastics in its 137 rooms and puts emphasis on locals. Wonky(卖相不好的) vegetables are used in the kitchen and waste is reduced by using an app called Too Good To Go. It’s a four-minute walk to Trinity College and Grafton Street and a 19-minute walk to Connolly Station, the country’s busiest train station. Doubles from €129(room only) 21. Which hotel can accommodate the most guests? A. Hotel Fljótshlíd. B. Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas. C. Wren Urban Nest. D. Montimesso SkyScape Country House. 22. What can guests do while staying at Montimesso SkyScape Country House? A. Enjoy outdoor swimming. B. Plant trees to reduce CO2. C. Observe distant stars. D. Ride horses on the farm. 23. What do the four hotels have in common? A. They are all environmentally friendly. B. They are all powered by green energy. C. They all grow their own fruits and vegetables. D. They all display characteristics of local cultures. B “Just go up and jump. Don’t think. If you do, you’ll just complicate things,” shouted Nuno, a photographer travelling with me on a press trip to Switzerland. I held onto the cold metal railing (栏杆), while he egged on me to keep going. As I reached the top of the ladder leading up to the diving board suspended over a green pond and looked over at the vast nothingness sandwiched between, I did exactly what Nuno told me. The next thing I knew was that I walked to the edge, closed my eyes, held my breath and jumped. I don’t remember the fall. What I do remember is the time it took me to break into the water’s surface. It felt like a century. For me, a male adult who got by with breast strokes and couldn’t tread (踩) water without holding onto something, it felt like a barrier had been overcome. Something changed the moment I jumped off that five-meter-high diving board into the depths of Drei Weieren, a cold 17th-century pond in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland, which its residents crowded for a swim during summer and to skate in the winter. I couldn’t stop smiling as I changed out of my wet clothes in a bath house and wondered what it was that made me excited. Maybe it was the challenge of doing what I would otherwise have never tried — jumping off an edge. Maybe it was the freedom that Nuno’s words forced me to pursue. What he said holds true for so much of life, doesn’t it? Don’t we all complicate things by thinking more than we need to? Sometimes one needs to quiet the voice of self-doubt and throw oneself into something. I enjoyed being wrapped in exhilaration, so over the next week, I threw caution to the winds and tried new things with varying levels of success. 24. Why did Nuno shout to the author? A. To encourage him to dive. B. To urge him to pose for a photo. C. To remind him not to fall off the board. D. To warn him to think twice before diving. 25. How did the author feel after trying diving? A. He was ashamed of his identity. B. He was sympathetic to Nuno. C. He was grateful to local people. D. He was satisfied with himself. 26. What does the author share in paragraph 4? A. Reflections on unexpected travel plans. B. Reasons for his unsuccessful diving attempt. C. Lessons learned from his diving experience. D. Assumptions about future diving practice. 27. What does the underlined word “exhilaration” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Support. B. Excitement. C. Security. D. Praise. C A parasocial relationship （PSR）is generally defined as a relationship in which one member of the relationship isn’t aware of the other — for example, a fan loves a celebrity, but the celebrity doesn’t know they exist. The term “parasocial relationships” first appeared in the 1950s, when psychologists tried to understand how television viewers reacted to TV personalities speaking to them directly out of the screen. Later in the 70s and 80s, scholars began to assume that forming parasocial relationships was driven by loneliness. However, not-lonely people are just as likely to form a connection with that person on the screen. As fandoms（粉丝圈）became more visible throughout the latter half of the 20th century, parasocial relationships became associated with youth and immaturity. It’s true that adolescents particularly tend to develop intense parasocial relationships because it can be a chance to practice real adult feelings on someone at a safe distance. But digital interaction complicates these natural relationships. Since the rise of social media, the phenomenon of parasocial relationships has been hugely amplified（放大）. The traditional arrangement of PSRs, where the fan has no actual contact with a celebrity, is visibly changed by our new means of communication — a celebrity might see a fan’s message or even reply. When fans are gaining access to the celebrity through social media posts, it increases the feeling of closeness. People think they really have more of a relationship than they do. Online fandoms, especially large ones full of adolescents with strong emotions can generate bad behavior among adults. Behavior that might have been limited to one person or a few people might be, thanks to social media, given the chance to spread. “There’s a sort of echo chamber effect（回声室效应）where people convince themselves, ‘everyone agrees with me and therefore we are all right in our approach,’” says Gayle Stever, the author of Parasocial Experiences. Parasocial relationships are natural and not inherently （固有地）unhealthy. But as Stever says, “Anything that can be true about a regular social relationship can be true about a parasocialrel ationship.” 28. Which aspect of parasocial relationships does paragraph 2 talk about? A. Their features. B. Their development. C. Their forms. D. Their influence. 29. How has social media changed parasocial relationships? A. Most online users are adolescents. B. Fans can meet celebrities in person. C. PSRs become more common among fans. D. Fans can interact with celebrities online. 30. Why does Stever mention the echo chamber effect in her book? A. To explain how behavior spreads in online fandoms. B. To prove that fans are easily persuaded by others. C. To illustrate the reasons why fans’ actions are right. D. To stress the fact that Stever’s book is important. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards parasocial relationships? A. Approving. B. Negative. C. Unclear. D. Objective. D Environmental management work between Rogart and Lairg has successfully been finished recently by Network Rail, on top of protecting nearby nesting hen harriers (白尾鹞), a kind of bird of great European importance. The location of the work runs through the Strath Carnaig and Strath Fleet Moors SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and SPA (Special Protection Area). Both are special areas for supporting a population of breeding (繁殖) hen harriers. Work necessary for the safe operation of the railway needed to be done at the same time as the breeding season so the work could have disturbed breeding harriers. But Network Rail’s ecology team worked with the Highland Raptor Study Group to conduct surveys of the hen harriers along the line. “It was a pleasure to work with Network Rail this spring and summer carrying out surveys along the line between Rogart and Lairg,” said Brian Etheridge, from the Highland Raptor Study Group. “The priority was to look for breeding hen harriers, a threatened bird of prey (猛禽).” Once breeding harriers had been identified, Network Rail put in place unique working procedures to reduce the influence on the birds. Measures were put in place to minimize noise disturbance, through the use of battery-operated chainsaws (链锯), and time-limited working in any one area to keep noise to a minimum. Before any form of work could start, an additional survey was carried out to check on any nesting hen harriers in order to confirm whether the work was safe to continue. A camera was also fixed to monitor nesting locations during the work to check that there were no signs of disturbance. Thanks to the efforts of Network Rail, three hen harrier chicks grew healthily in their nests near the worksite. Jonathan Callis Senior Asset Engineer for Network Rail said, “We are delighted that the care, professionalism and cooperation demonstrated by everyone who contributed to this project have resulted in such a successful result for the birds.” 32. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. The railway work has started recently. B. Hen harriers are protected species in Europe. C. The railway plays an important role in Europe. D. Rogart and Lairg are home to hen harriers in the wild. 33. What did the Highland Raptor Study Group do for Network Rail’s project? A. They surveyed the hen harriers nesting near the worksite. B. They designed a new kind of chainsaw for Network Rail. C. They often monitored the working procedures of Network Rail. D. They developed a way to change the breeding habits of hen harriers. 34. What does the underlined word “minimize” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Create. B. Suffer. C. Reduce. D. Expand. 35. How did Network Rail’s efforts turn out? A. They were a great success. B. They were limited and dangerous. C. They caused serious noise pollution. D. They guaranteed the safety of workers. 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。 Tai Chi, or Taijiquan in Chinese, is an outstanding part of traditional Chinese culture that is valuable in promoting health, developing self-defence skills, and improving concentration and overall well-being.

My class of first-graders was feverishly anticipating their summer vacation. To add a joyful flavor, I had some balloons brought in, but for me, this holiday was bittersweet. I’d just moved to this city and couldn’t afford to fly back to accompany Dad. He was desperately missing me, for it was his first summer without me. When switching off the light on my way out, I noticed the balloons near the window. Unsure what to do with them, I grabbed the thirteen strings and stuffed them into the backseat of my car. Their rainbow of colors lifted my spirits and gratefully, I didn’t feel so alone. As the city was still foreign to me, I decided to go for a drive and soon found myself winding down a stretch of road where the trees overhead covered each other. The branches reminded me of two friends stretching out to greet each other. Before long, a retirement home appeared. It was a place with a feeling of forgottenness and I spotted a man sitting alone in the shade outside. I felt a sudden urge to pull in. But the balloons in my backseat blocked my view-then I knew what to do with them. Opening the door and grabbing one of the strings, I waved to the man, and he smiled. His name was Daniel and he was about Dad’s age. When I handed him the balloon, he grinned (咧嘴笑)，“Thanks. It gives a little color to my life.” While tying it to his chair, he looked happier than when I arrived. So I smiled, “You’re welcome, Daniel. Perhaps I’ll see you again sometime.” Unexpectedly, he replied, “Perhaps, but probably not. Visitors are always welcome, but rarely come.” His words forced me to slide over an old chair next to his. Then we began chatting about our lives and his voice always reminded me of Dad. I’d thought it would be boring talking with a stranger. But it wasn’t; it was enlightening — I had been feeling lonely, and so had Daniel, and so had the residents in the retirement home. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右：(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024～2025学年度第二学期高一年级素质检测 英语试卷 （总分：150分时间：120分钟） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，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段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 【1题答案】 【答案】C 【2题答案】 【答案】C 【3题答案】 【答案】B 【4题答案】 【答案】A 【5题答案】 【答案】B 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.

Knocking on each resident’s door, I offered a balloon and a smile. Faces lit up like children receiving candies. An elderly lady tied hers to a walker, murmuring “Just like my granddaughter’s birthday.” Soon the courtyard bloomed with floating rainbows. Laughter echoed through the once-silent corridors. As twilight painted the sky, I sat surrounded by storytellers sipping lemonade. Their wrinkled hands patted mine gratefully. For the first time since moving here, loneliness dissolved like sugar in warm tea. Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. We planted sunflowers by his window, their golden faces tracking the sun like old friends nodding hello. He taught me chess moves from his army days, and I read him newspaper crosswords. Gradually, my students joined our visits, crafting paper cranes with nimble fingers while veterans shared wartime stories. By Christmas, the home buzzed with cookie-baking aromas and carol singers. When Dad finally visited in December, he found me surrounded by silver-haired “adopted grandparents”.
