Doing Sports is Necessary for our Health
As we all know, a healthy body is necessary for a healthy mind. Only by keeping ourselves healthy can we feel energetic and confident. Playing sports is one of the best ways to keep us fit.
People’s tastes in sports are different. Some people adore basketball, while others like cycling. For me, swimming is the best type. I go to the indoor swimming pool near my home once a week. Every time I swim, I feel like that I am a fish, which really makes me relaxed.
Life is a movement, and sport is the thing that gives us an opportunity to move. So, let’s doing sports together!

One day, Paul advised “Gayel, you should use the money to do something for yourself.” “Maybe I should use it to meet Kathy,” I joked, thinking it would take a very long time and couldn’t really happen. I expected Paul to be against it, but he was all for it. “That’s exactly what you should do,” he insisted, knowing how much this friendship meant to me. I struggled so much inside that I tossed and turned at night. But I finally made up my mind to visit Kathy, a friend I knew well but hadn't seen in years.2023-2024学年上学期期末模拟考试

Over the last century, engineers all over the world have made efforts to achieve great success in bridge design.
Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge
No bridge is as long as the Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge in the world. The164.8-kilometre-long bridge built in 2011 in China operates as part of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The trip from Ningbo to Jiaxi ng that previously took 4. 5 hours has been reduced to two, thanks to this bridge.
Rio-Niterói Bridge
Completed in 1974, the Rio-Niterói Bridge in Brazil is the second-longest bridge in all of Latin America connecting the cities of Rio and Niterói across the Guanabara Bay. The Rio-Niterói Bridge is technically known as a “box-girder (箱形梁)” bridge, made of special concrete. It receives an astonishing 140,000 (or more) vehicles (车辆) per day, making it better known in the world.
Hartland Covered Bridge
The Hartland Covered Bridge is the world’s longest covered bridge. The 1,282-foot-long bridge was opened in 1901 and has been on Canada’s list of National Historic Sites since 1980. Although it was at first built without a roof, the bridge was capped with wooden materials during the repairs in 1921.
Jiaozhou Bay Bridge
The newly-built Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China was named “world’s longest bridge over water” by Guinness Book of World Records in 2011, a title previously held by the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. The dispute was settled when the title of “longest continuous bridge over water” was given to the causeway, with the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge receiving the title of “longest bridge over water”.
21．Which bridge is famous as a busy one

Cole Doss, 31, used his time on the microphone to make an announcement (广播) before the flight to honor his mom, a flight attendant for over 40 years.
“She’s been one of my biggest supporters in my life and in my career (职业) becoming a pilot, ever since my very first flight lesson,” Doss told passengers, later adding, “To my mom, I love you, and without you, I wouldn’t have chosen such a great job.”
Doss said the flight last month from Washington, D．C． to Madrid was not only the first time he and his mom had worked on a flight together, but also the first time his mom had been on a flight that he piloted.
“That was the first time I had been able to fly my mom ever,” he said. “In flight school, she was a little nervous about the small planes, so I was never able to fly with her there.” Doss said his mom typically works on Asia-bound flights, but when she learned he was piloting a flight to Spain, she switched (调班) schedules with a fellow flight attendant so she could be on the same flight.
On the day of the flight, Doss, having been a United Airlines pilot since February 2022, and his mom also worked on the return flight back to Washington, D．C． together. “I wanted to do something special to pay back my mom and let everyone know that this was a really cool event for both of us,” he said.
“She was really proud of me so I’m sure she probably told most of the passengers that her son was flying up front,” Doss said. In addition to his mom’s role as a flight attendant for the United Airlines, Doss’ dad and sister are flight attendants for the American Airlines.
24．Why did Doss make the announcement on board
A．To read out some new rules. B．To express thanks to his mother.
C．To tell passengers about safety. D．To help an old lady stay calm.
25．What is special about the flight for Doss
A．It was his first time flying with his mother. B．It took more than 24 hours to reach Madrid.
C．He celebrated his birthday with passengers. D．There was only one attendant on the flight.
26．How did Doss’ mother feel about him
A．Hopeless. B．Strange. C．Sorry. D．Proud.
27．What can we learn about Doss from the text
A．His sister also works for the United Airlines. B．He used to be nervous about small planes.
C．His family has positively influenced him. D．He always chats with his friends online.
C
Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life
Firstly, it’s a great introduction to vocabulary. Seeing an adult sounding out the words and linking them to the shapes on the page begins to build up vocabulary that they will use for the rest of their life.
Then there are a variety of good effects of hearing stories which improve their minds and develop social awareness and skills. At a time when they are perhaps stuck indoors more than ever before, reading is the best way to motivate (激发) children’s imagination. They can travel to the moon, meet the Gruffalo and pop into a chocolate factory all before they’ve even had lunch!
There’s no better way to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes than reading their stories and seeing things from another’s point of view is a great way to build empathy (共鸣), tolerance and other qualities needed. There are some fantastic children’s books which show characters acting as strong role models. These stories can encourage future leaders and thinkers, so every child can feel they can achieve their dreams, from the Little Leaders series to Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls (叛逆女孩).
Now is the perfect time to build up a library of excellent reads ready for children to enjoy now and in the future. They will create memories to last a lifetime. On top of the benefits for your little ones, it’s fun, relaxing and a great chance to go back and reread the best books from your own childhood.
28．What kind of people is the text written for
A．Parents. B．Children.
C．Teachers. D．Leaders.
29．What does the underlined phrase “pop into” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Start. B．Visit.
C．Build. D．Leave.
30．In which way does Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls do good to children
A．Going to bed easily at bedtime. B．Building good qualities.
C．Building a strong body. D．Bringing back sweet memories.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Children’s reading habits. B．Children’s reading materials.
C．Benefits of reading to children. D．Ways of reading children’s books.

Antarctica (南极洲) is a great, icy land, surrounded by the huge Southern Ocean. The ice in Antarctica doesn’t just cover the land. There’s also a large area of sea ice, which floats (漂浮) on the ocean’s surface.
Scientists have been measuring the area of the sea ice in Antarctica since 1979. For most of this time, Antarctica has seemed to be almost not influenced by the changing weather conditions experienced in other parts of the planet. In fact, until recent years, Antartica’s sea ice area mainly set records for growing.
That began to change around 2016. Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot.
The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France.
Scientists are still trying to understand what is driving the change in Antarctica. Ted Scambos, a research scientist at the University of Colorado, says, “Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”
The new low record has scientists worried. The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat.
32．What did NSIDC find about the sea ice in Antarctica this year
A．It protected the wildlife in the ocean. B．It grew and covered a wider area.
C．It turned out to be difficult to observe. D．It reached a new record low level.
33．Why does the author mention France in paragraph 4
A．To present the total area of the country. B．To introduce a new topic for discussion.
C．To show the sharp loss of Antarctica’s sea ice. D．To explain the position of the wonderful land.
34．What causes the change in Antarctica according to Ted Scambos
A．Low rainfall. B．Rising temperatures.
C．Cold weather. D．Short summer months.
35．What can we know about Antarctica’s sea ice
A．It’s key to the earth’s cooling system. B．It’s just a short-term problem.
C．It reminds us to find water resources. D．It offers humans a bright future.

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。
How to Be Creative
Most of us think that creativity is a quality (品质) belonging only to artists, writers, or dancers, rather than ourselves. 36 The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity.
Get out of your comfort zone
We eagerly accept the familiar and fear the unknown. Break out of your usual patterns and welcome creativity into your life. As said earlier, the human brain was designed to recognize patterns. 37 In fact, our comfort zone is nothing more than a collection of patterns. As we become more efficient at recognizing and using patterns, we rely less on creativity to find new paths. We should force ourselves out of our comfort zones and open up new possibilities.
Try different things
If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got. We are creatures of habits and routines, and creativity hates routines (常规). If you usually drive to work, take the subway for a few days. 38 Break your routine, experiment and try something new. New things are often creative, but the same old thing never is.
39
Having a great idea is not enough, you must work to make it a reality. Have you ever seen a new product and realized that you thought of the same thing long ago Yet someone else is making money with “your” idea. 40 The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action. Do whatever it takes to bring your ideas to life. If you can put them into practice, you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life.
A．Take action
B．Seek several options
C．Think from the other person’s point of view.
D．If you normally eat in the office, have lunch under a tree.
E．We continue to create patterns for almost everything we do.
F．The truth is that we are all born with the ability to be creative.
G．We all have great ideas sometimes, but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.

I was home with my two young kids, when my mind started to wander. I was reflecting on my past and couldn’t help but think: Whatever happened to Kathy
Kathy lived in a tiny Canadian town and she became my pen pal when I was 13. As a girl growing up in New Zealand, I was curious to learn more about the world and Kathy’s letters certainly showed me how different life could be in another country.
When I was 18, the letters had petered out(逐渐减少) and we lost contact. I’d gone on to marry my husband, Paul, and start a family, but the more I thought about it, the more I missed news of Kathy’s adventures. I decided to write to Kathy and knowing that her parents lived in such a small town, I addressed the letter to them and hoped for the best.
Three weeks later, my heart leapt when I got an envelope postmarked from Canada. “I recognized your handwriting straightaway,” Kathy wrote to me. It turned out that, like me, she’d also married but due to health problems, she was unable to have children. Her job as a nurse kept her busy and she enjoyed helping others.
Realizing how quickly life could change. I promised to keep writing to her no matter what. Her letters soon became a highlight for me, giving me the same excitement I’d felt as a 13-year-old.
One day, when Paul was using the saw(锯子) to cut some wood, a splinter(尖细条) flew into the center of my right eye and I lost my sight permanently. Paul felt terrible and while it was a huge blow(打击) for me, I tried to carry on as best I could. Soon, I needed an artificial eye(义眼, 假眼) and received financial compensation(赔偿) as a result of the accident in our yard.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;

The Rio-Niterói Bridge is technically known as a “box-girder (箱形梁)” bridge, made of special concrete. It receives an astonishing 140,000 (or more) vehicles (车辆) per day, making it better known in the world.
Hartland Covered Bridge
The Hartland Covered Bridge is the world’s longest covered bridge. The 1,282-foot-long bridge was opened in 1901 and has been on Canada’s list of National Historic Sites since 1980. Although it was at first built without a roof, the bridge was capped with wooden materials during the repairs in 1921.
Jiaozhou Bay Bridge
The newly-built Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China was named “world’s longest bridge over water” by Guinness Book of World Records in 2011, a title previously held by the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. The dispute was settled when the title of “longest continuous bridge over water” was given to the causeway, with the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge receiving the title of “longest bridge over water”.

Cole Doss, 31, used his time on the microphone to make an announcement (广播) before the flight to honor his mom, a flight attendant for over 40 years.
“She’s been one of my biggest supporters in my life and in my career (职业) becoming a pilot, ever since my very first flight lesson,” Doss told passengers, later adding, “To my mom, I love you, and without you, I wouldn’t have chosen such a great job.”
Doss said the flight last month from Washington, D．C． to Madrid was not only the first time he and his mom had worked on a flight together, but also the first time his mom had been on a flight that he piloted.
“That was the first time I had been able to fly my mom ever,” he said. “In flight school, she was a little nervous about the small planes, so I was never able to fly with her there.” Doss said his mom typically works on Asia-bound flights, but when she learned he was piloting a flight to Spain, she switched (调班) schedules with a fellow flight attendant so she could be on the same flight.
On the day of the flight, Doss, having been a United Airlines pilot since February 2022, and his mom also worked on the return flight back to Washington, D．C． together. “I wanted to do something special to pay back my mom and let everyone know that this was a really cool event for both of us,” he said.
“She was really proud of me so I’m sure she probably told most of the passengers that her son was flying up front,” Doss said. In addition to his mom’s role as a flight attendant for the United Airlines, Doss’ dad and sister are flight attendants for the American Airlines.
24．Why did Doss make the announcement on board
A．To read out some new rules. B．To express thanks to his mother.
C．To tell passengers about safety. D．To help an old lady stay calm.
25．What is special about the flight for Doss
A．It was his first time flying with his mother. B．It took more than 24 hours to reach Madrid.
C．He celebrated his birthday with passengers. D．There was only one attendant on the flight.
26．How did Doss’ mother feel about him
A．Hopeless. B．Strange. C．Sorry. D．Proud.
27．What can we learn about Doss from the text
A．His sister also works for the United Airlines. B．He used to be nervous about small planes.
C．His family has positively influenced him. D．He always chats with his friends online.

Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life
Firstly, it’s a great introduction to vocabulary. Seeing an adult sounding out the words and linking them to the shapes on the page begins to build up vocabulary that they will use for the rest of their life.
Then there are a variety of good effects of hearing stories which improve their minds and develop social awareness and skills. At a time when they are perhaps stuck indoors more than ever before, reading is the best way to motivate (激发) children’s imagination. They can travel to the moon, meet the Gruffalo and pop into a chocolate factory all before they’ve even had lunch!
There’s no better way to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes than reading their stories and seeing things from another’s point of view is a great way to build empathy (共鸣), tolerance and other qualities needed. There are some fantastic children’s books which show characters acting as strong role models. These stories can encourage future leaders and thinkers, so every child can feel they can achieve their dreams, from the Little Leaders series to Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls (叛逆女孩).
Now is the perfect time to build up a library of excellent reads ready for children to enjoy now and in the future. They will create memories to last a lifetime. On top of the benefits for your little ones, it’s fun, relaxing and a great chance to go back and reread the best books from your own childhood.
28．What kind of people is the text written for
A．Parents. B．Children.
C．Teachers. D．Leaders.
29．What does the underlined phrase “pop into” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Start. B．Visit.
C．Build. D．Leave.
30．In which way does Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls do good to children
A．Going to bed easily at bedtime. B．Building good qualities.
C．Building a strong body. D．Bringing back sweet memories.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Children’s reading habits. B．Children’s reading materials.
C．Benefits of reading to children. D．Ways of reading children’s books.
D
Antarctica (南极洲) is a great, icy land, surrounded by the huge Southern Ocean. The ice in Antarctica doesn’t just cover the land. There’s also a large area of sea ice, which floats (漂浮) on the ocean’s surface.
Scientists have been measuring the area of the sea ice in Antarctica since 1979. For most of this time, Antarctica has seemed to be almost not influenced by the changing weather conditions experienced in other parts of the planet. In fact, until recent years, Antartica’s sea ice area mainly set records for growing.
That began to change around 2016. Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot.
The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France.
Scientists are still trying to understand what is driving the change in Antarctica. Ted Scambos, a research scientist at the University of Colorado, says, “Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”
The new low record has scientists worried. The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat.
32．What did NSIDC find about the sea ice in Antarctica this year
A．It protected the wildlife in the ocean. B．It grew and covered a wider area.
C．It turned out to be difficult to observe. D．It reached a new record low level.
33．Why does the author mention France in paragraph 4
A．To present the total area of the country. B．To introduce a new topic for discussion.
C．To show the sharp loss of Antarctica’s sea ice. D．To explain the position of the wonderful land.
34．What causes the change in Antarctica according to Ted Scambos
A．Low rainfall. B．Rising temperatures.
C．Cold weather. D．Short summer months.
35．What can we know about Antarctica’s sea ice
A．It’s key to the earth’s cooling system. B．It’s just a short-term problem.
C．It reminds us to find water resources. D．It offers humans a bright future.

How to Be Creative
Most of us think that creativity is a quality (品质) belonging only to artists, writers, or dancers, rather than ourselves. 36 The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity.
Get out of your comfort zone
We eagerly accept the familiar and fear the unknown. Break out of your usual patterns and welcome creativity into your life. As said earlier, the human brain was designed to recognize patterns. 37 In fact, our comfort zone is nothing more than a collection of patterns. As we become more efficient at recognizing and using patterns, we rely less on creativity to find new paths. We should force ourselves out of our comfort zones and open up new possibilities.
Try different things
If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got. We are creatures of habits and routines, and creativity hates routines (常规). If you usually drive to work, take the subway for a few days. 38 Break your routine, experiment and try something new. New things are often creative, but the same old thing never is.
39
Having a great idea is not enough, you must work to make it a reality. Have you ever seen a new product and realized that you thought of the same thing long ago Yet someone else is making money with “your” idea. 40 The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action. Do whatever it takes to bring your ideas to life. If you can put them into practice, you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life.
A．Take action
B．Seek several options
C．Think from the other person’s point of view.
D．If you normally eat in the office, have lunch under a tree.
E．We continue to create patterns for almost everything we do.
F．The truth is that we are all born with the ability to be creative.
G．We all have great ideas sometimes, but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was home with my two young kids, when my mind started to wander. I was reflecting on my past and couldn’t help but think: Whatever happened to Kathy
Kathy lived in a tiny Canadian town and she became my pen pal when I was 13. As a girl growing up in New Zealand, I was curious to learn more about the world and Kathy’s letters certainly showed me how different life could be in another country.
When I was 18, the letters had petered out(逐渐减少) and we lost contact. I’d gone on to marry my husband, Paul, and start a family, but the more I thought about it, the more I missed news of Kathy’s adventures. I decided to write to Kathy and knowing that her parents lived in such a small town, I addressed the letter to them and hoped for the best.
Three weeks later, my heart leapt when I got an envelope postmarked from Canada. “I recognized your handwriting straightaway,” Kathy wrote to me. It turned out that, like me, she’d also married but due to health problems, she was unable to have children. Her job as a nurse kept her busy and she enjoyed helping others.
Realizing how quickly life could change. I promised to keep writing to her no matter what. Her letters soon became a highlight for me, giving me the same excitement I’d felt as a 13-year-old.
One day, when Paul was using the saw(锯子) to cut some wood, a splinter(尖细条) flew into the center of my right eye and I lost my sight permanently. Paul felt terrible and while it was a huge blow(打击) for me, I tried to carry on as best I could. Soon, I needed an artificial eye(义眼, 假眼) and received financial compensation(赔偿) as a result of the accident in our yard.
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。
One day, Paul advised, “Gayel, you should use the money to do something for yourself.”____________________

W: As long as you plan carefully, most things are possible. It’s always good to have a backup plan in case things go wrong.

Over the last century, engineers all over the world have made efforts to achieve great success in bridge design.
Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge
No bridge is as long as the Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge in the world. The164.8-kilometre-long bridge built in 2011 in China operates as part of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The trip from Ningbo to Jiaxi ng that previously took 4. 5 hours has been reduced to two, thanks to this bridge.
Rio-Niterói Bridge
Completed in 1974, the Rio-Niterói Bridge in Brazil is the second-longest bridge in all of Latin America connecting the cities of Rio and Niterói across the Guanabara Bay. The Rio-Niterói Bridge is technically known as a “box-girder (箱形梁)” bridge, made of special concrete. It receives an astonishing 140,000 (or more) vehicles (车辆) per day, making it better known in the world.
Hartland Covered Bridge
The Hartland Covered Bridge is the world’s longest covered bridge. The 1,282-foot-long bridge was opened in 1901 and has been on Canada’s list of National Historic Sites since 1980. Although it was at first built without a roof, the bridge was capped with wooden materials during the repairs in 1921.
Jiaozhou Bay Bridge
The newly-built Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China was named “world’s longest bridge over water” by Guinness Book of World Records in 2011, a title previously held by the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. The dispute was settled when the title of “longest continuous bridge over water” was given to the causeway, with the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge receiving the title of “longest bridge over water”.
21．Which bridge is famous as a busy one
A．Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge. B．Rio-Niterói Bridge.
C．Hartland Covered Bridge. D．Jiaozhou Bay Bridge.
22．What is special about the Hartland Covered Bridge

Cole Doss, 31, used his time on the microphone to make an announcement (广播) before the flight to honor his mom, a flight attendant for over 40 years.
“She’s been one of my biggest supporters in my life and in my career (职业) becoming a pilot, ever since my very first flight lesson,” Doss told passengers, later adding, “To my mom, I love you, and without you, I wouldn’t have chosen such a great job.”
Doss said the flight last month from Washington, D．C． to Madrid was not only the first time he and his mom had worked on a flight together, but also the first time his mom had been on a flight that he piloted.
“That was the first time I had been able to fly my mom ever,” he said. “In flight school, she was a little nervous about the small planes, so I was never able to fly with her there.” Doss said his mom typically works on Asia-bound flights, but when she learned he was piloting a flight to Spain, she switched (调班) schedules with a fellow flight attendant so she could be on the same flight.
On the day of the flight, Doss, having been a United Airlines pilot since February 2022, and his mom also worked on the return flight back to Washington, D．C． together. “I wanted to do something special to pay back my mom and let everyone know that this was a really cool event for both of us,” he said.
“She was really proud of me so I’m sure she probably told most of the passengers that her son was flying up front,” Doss said. In addition to his mom’s role as a flight attendant for the United Airlines, Doss’ dad and sister are flight attendants for the American Airlines.
24．Why did Doss make the announcement on board
A．To read out some new rules. B．To express thanks to his mother.
C．To tell passengers about safety. D．To help an old lady stay calm.
25．What is special about the flight for Doss
A．It was his first time flying with his mother. B．It took more than 24 hours to reach Madrid.
C．He celebrated his birthday with passengers. D．There was only one attendant on the flight.
26．How did Doss’ mother feel about him
A．Hopeless. B．Strange. C．Sorry. D．Proud.
27．What can we learn about Doss from the text
A．His sister also works for the United Airlines. B．He used to be nervous about small planes.
C．His family has positively influenced him. D．He always chats with his friends online.
【参考答案】

(31岁的科尔·多斯在飞行前用麦克风发表了一则公告，以纪念他当了40多年空姐的母亲)”及第二段中“She’s been one of my biggest supporters in my life and in my career(职业)becoming a pilot, ever since my very first flight lesson (自从我上第一堂飞行课以来，她一直是我一生和飞行员生涯中最大的支持者之一)”可推断，Doss在机上广播是为了表达对妈妈的感激之情。故选B。
25．【A】细节理解题。根据第三段“Doss said the flight last month from Washington, D. C. to Madrid was not only the first time he and his mom had worked on a flight together, but also the first time his mom had been on a flight that he piloted.

26．【D】细节理解题。根据最后一段“She was really proud of me (她真的为我感到骄傲)”可知，Doss的妈妈对他感到很骄傲。故选D。
27．【C】推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段““She’s been one of my biggest supporters in my life and in my career(职业)becoming a pilot, ever since my very first flight lesson,” Doss told passengers, later adding, “To my mom, I love you, and without you, I wouldn’t have chosen such a great job.” (多斯对乘客们说：“从我上第一堂飞行课开始，她就一直是我人生和飞行员生涯中最大的支持者之一。”后来又补充道：“对我妈妈来说，我爱你，没有你，我不会选择这么好的工作。”)”及最后一段““She was really proud of me so I’m sure she probably told most of the passengers that her son was flying up front,” Doss said. In addition to his mom’s role as a flight attendant for the United Airlines, Doss’ dad and sister are flight attendants for the American Airlines. (多斯说：“她真的为我感到骄傲，所以我相信她可能告诉大多数乘客，她的儿子在前面飞行。”除了母亲在美国联合航空公司担任空乘外，多斯的父亲和姐姐也是美国航空公司的空乘。)”可推断，Doss的家庭环境对他产生了积极的影响。故选C。

Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life
Firstly, it’s a great introduction to vocabulary. Seeing an adult sounding out the words and linking them to the shapes on the page begins to build up vocabulary that they will use for the rest of their life.
Then there are a variety of good effects of hearing stories which improve their minds and develop social awareness and skills. At a time when they are perhaps stuck indoors more than ever before, reading is the best way to motivate (激发) children’s imagination. They can travel to the moon, meet the Gruffalo and pop into a chocolate factory all before they’ve even had lunch!
There’s no better way to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes than reading their stories and seeing things from another’s point of view is a great way to build empathy (共鸣), tolerance and other qualities needed. There are some fantastic children’s books which show characters acting as strong role models. These stories can encourage future leaders and thinkers, so every child can feel they can achieve their dreams, from the Little Leaders series to Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls (叛逆女孩).
Now is the perfect time to build up a library of excellent reads ready for children to enjoy now and in the future. They will create memories to last a lifetime. On top of the benefits for your little ones, it’s fun, relaxing and a great chance to go back and reread the best books from your own childhood.
28．What kind of people is the text written for
A．Parents. B．Children.
C．Teachers. D．Leaders.
29．What does the underlined phrase “pop into” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Start. B．Visit.
C．Build. D．Leave.
30．In which way does Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls do good to children
A．Going to bed easily at bedtime. B．Building good qualities.
C．Building a strong body. D．Bringing back sweet memories.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Children’s reading habits. B．Children’s reading materials.
C．Benefits of reading to children. D．Ways of reading children’s books.
【参考答案】
28．A 29．B 30．B 31．C
【语篇解读】
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了阅读给孩子带来的各种好处。
【详情解析】
28．【A】推理判断题。根据第一段“Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life (从小和你的孩子坐在一起，一起享受一本书总是一个很好的消磨时间的方式，但是你知道给你的孩子读书有很多好处，会让他们的生活有一个良好的开端吗？)”可知，这篇文章的目标阅读对象是家长。故选A。
29．【B】词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句中的“They can travel to the moon, meet the Gruffalo(他们可以去月球旅行，去见格鲁法洛)”可知，此处是指进入巧克力工厂，所以pop into意为“访问，进入”。故选B。
30．【B】细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“These stories can encourage future leaders and thinkers, so every child can feel they can achieve their dreams, from the Little Leaders series to Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls (叛逆女孩).(这些故事可以鼓励未来的领导者和思想家，所以从小领袖系列到叛逆女孩的晚安故事，每个孩子都能感觉到他们可以实现自己的梦想。)”可知，《叛逆女孩的晚安故事》可以培养孩子的良好品质。故选B。
31．【C】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life (从小和你的孩子坐在一起，一起享受一本书总是一个很好的消磨时间的方式，但是你知道给你的孩子读书有很多好处，会让他们的生活有一个良好的开端吗？)”可知，文章主要是讲给孩子读书的好处。故选C。

（山西省知名高中2023-2024学年高一上学期11月月考）
Antarctica (南极洲) is a great, icy land, surrounded by the huge Southern Ocean. The ice in Antarctica doesn’t just cover the land. There’s also a large area of sea ice, which floats (漂浮) on the ocean’s surface.
Scientists have been measuring the area of the sea ice in Antarctica since 1979. For most of this time, Antarctica has seemed to be almost not influenced by the changing weather conditions experienced in other parts of the planet. In fact, until recent years, Antartica’s sea ice area mainly set records for growing.
That began to change around 2016. Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot.
The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France.
Scientists are still trying to understand what is driving the change in Antarctica. Ted Scambos, a research scientist at the University of Colorado, says, “Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”
The new low record has scientists worried. The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat.
32．What did NSIDC find about the sea ice in Antarctica this year
A．It protected the wildlife in the ocean. B．It grew and covered a wider area.
C．It turned out to be difficult to observe. D．It reached a new record low level.
33．Why does the author mention France in paragraph 4
A．To present the total area of the country. B．To introduce a new topic for discussion.
C．To show the sharp loss of Antarctica’s sea ice. D．To explain the position of the wonderful land.
34．What causes the change in Antarctica according to Ted Scambos
A．Low rainfall. B．Rising temperatures.
C．Cold weather. D．Short summer months.
35．What can we know about Antarctica’s sea ice
A．It’s key to the earth’s cooling system. B．It’s just a short-term problem.
C．It reminds us to find water resources. D．It offers humans a bright future.

(现在，几年来，南极洲的海冰面积一直在变小。今年，美国国家冰雪数据中心（NSIDC）报告称，南极洲的海冰在9月10日达到最大值，比正常情况早了近两周。海冰也创下了历史新低——不仅少一点点，而且少很多)”可知，NSIDC今年对南极洲海冰的检测，发现南极洲的海冰面积达到了历史新低。故选D项。
33．【C】推理判断题。由第四段“The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France. (上一次南极洲在1986年冬季结束时创下海冰面积少纪录。今年的海冰面积比1986年减少了约103万平方公里。很难想象这么大的面积，但它的面积大约是法国的1.6倍)”可知，30多年的时间，南极洲海冰消失的面积相当于法国国土面积，这是很大的面积，提到法国是为了显示南极洲海冰的急剧减少。故选C项。
34．【B】细节理解题。由倒数第二段中Ted Scambos说的话“Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”(南极洲的冰平面总是有一些变化，但今年的情况表明，该地区周围的海洋条件更加温暖)”可知，Ted Scambos认为气温上升导致了南极洲的变化。故选B项。
35．【A】细节理解题。由最后一段中“The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat. (海冰很重要，因为它有助于冷却地球。当海冰结冰时，它会将阳光反射回太空。但当海冰融化时，留下的水会变黑，吸收并保持更多的热量)”可知，海冰对地球有冷却作用，说明南极洲的海冰是地球冷却系统的关键。故选A项。

How to Be Creative
Most of us think that creativity is a quality (品质) belonging only to artists, writers, or dancers, rather than ourselves. 36 The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity.
Get out of your comfort zone
We eagerly accept the familiar and fear the unknown. Break out of your usual patterns and welcome creativity into your life. As said earlier, the human brain was designed to recognize patterns. 37 In fact, our comfort zone is nothing more than a collection of patterns. As we become more efficient at recognizing and using patterns, we rely less on creativity to find new paths. We should force ourselves out of our comfort zones and open up new possibilities.
Try different things
If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got. We are creatures of habits and routines, and creativity hates routines (常规). If you usually drive to work, take the subway for a few days. 38 Break your routine, experiment and try something new. New things are often creative, but the same old thing never is.
39
Having a great idea is not enough, you must work to make it a reality. Have you ever seen a new product and realized that you thought of the same thing long ago Yet someone else is making money with “your” idea. 40 The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action. Do whatever it takes to bring your ideas to life. If you can put them into practice, you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life.
A．Take action
B．Seek several options
C．Think from the other person’s point of view.
D．If you normally eat in the office, have lunch under a tree.
E．We continue to create patterns for almost everything we do.
F．The truth is that we are all born with the ability to be creative.
G．We all have great ideas sometimes, but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.
【参考答案】
36．F 37．E 38．D 39．A 40．G
【语篇解读】
本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是如何变得有创造力。
【详情解析】
36．【F】依据上一句“Most of us think that creativity is a quality (品质) belonging only to artists, writers, or dancers, rather than ourselves.(我们大多数人认为创造力只是艺术家、作家或舞蹈家的一种品质，而不是我们自己的。)”可知，很多人认为创造力只属于艺术家、作家或舞蹈家，后面建议我们如何培养创造力，由此可推断出本句是讲每个人都有创造力，F选项“The truth is that we are all bom with the ability to be creative.(事实上，我们生来就有创造的能力。)”说明我们每个人都是有创造力的，承上启下，符合语境。故选F。
37．【E】空前“As said earlier, the human brain was designed to recognize patterns.(如前所述，人类的大脑是用来识别模式的)”说明大脑是用来识别模式的，因此空格处应该说我们可以创造模式，E选项“We continue to create patterns for almost everything we do.(我们继续为我们所做的几乎所有事情创造模式。)”说明了我们可以创造模式，其中的patterns和前面的patterns相一致，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选E。
38．【D】由本段小标题“Try different things(尝试不同的东西)”可知，本段主要讲述的是尝试做一些改变，D项“If you normally eat in the office, have lunch under a tree.(如果你通常在办公室吃午饭，那就在树下吃吧)”是一种改变，符合本段主旨，且与上文“If you usually drive to work, take the subway for a few days. (如果你通常开车去上班，那就坐几天地铁)”在句式上保持一致，构成并列。故选D。
39．【A】空处是本段的小标题，由空格下方的“Having a great idea is not enough, you must work to make it a reality. (有一个伟大的想法是不够的，你必须努力使它成为现实。)”和“If you can put them into practice, you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life.(如果你能把它们付诸实践，你就能很好地在生活的各个方面提高你的创造力。)”可知，本段主要讲的是要行动起来，把一些好的想法变成现实，A选项“Take action(采取行动)”说明要采取行动，因此概括本段内容，可作为小标题，故选A。
40．【G】根据下文中的“The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action.(梦想家和实干家的区别在于行动)”可知，梦想家只是想一想，而实干家不但想还去做，G选项“We all have great ideas sometimes, but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.(我们都有伟大的想法，但只有少数人把他们的想法变成现实。)”说明了有的人只是想一想而已，只有少数人会去真正把自己想的事情做出来，引起下文，符合语境，故选G。

Doing Sports is Necessary for our Health
As we all know, a healthy body is necessary for a healthy mind. Only by keeping ourselves healthy can we feel energetic and confident. Playing sports is one of the best ways to keep us fit.
People’s tastes in sports are different. Some people adore basketball, while others like cycling. For me, swimming is the best type. I go to the indoor swimming pool near my home once a week. Every time I swim, I feel like that I am a fish, which really makes me relaxed.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was home with my two young kids, when my mind started to wander. I was reflecting on my past and couldn’t help but think: Whatever happened to Kathy
Kathy lived in a tiny Canadian town and she became my pen pal when I was 13. As a girl growing up in New Zealand, I was curious to learn more about the world and Kathy’s letters certainly showed me how different life could be in another country.
When I was 18, the letters had petered out(逐渐减少) and we lost contact. I’d gone on to marry my husband, Paul, and start a family, but the more I thought about it, the more I missed news of Kathy’s adventures. I decided to write to Kathy and knowing that her parents lived in such a small town, I addressed the letter to them and hoped for the best.
Three weeks later, my heart leapt when I got an envelope postmarked from Canada. “I recognized your handwriting straightaway,” Kathy wrote to me. It turned out that, like me, she’d also married but due to health problems, she was unable to have children. Her job as a nurse kept her busy and she enjoyed helping others.
Realizing how quickly life could change. I promised to keep writing to her no matter what. Her letters soon became a highlight for me, giving me the same excitement I’d felt as a 13-year-old.
One day, when Paul was using the saw(锯子) to cut some wood, a splinter(尖细条) flew into the center of my right eye and I lost my sight permanently. Paul felt terrible and while it was a huge blow(打击) for me, I tried to carry on as best I could. Soon, I needed an artificial eye(义眼, 假眼) and received financial compensation(赔偿) as a result of the accident in our yard.
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。
One day, Paul advised, “Gayel, you should use the money to do something for yourself.”________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
So I left Paul and the kids to travel 30 hours to reach Kathy. ________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【参考答案】
One day, Paul advised “Gayel, you should use the money to do something for yourself.” “Maybe I should use it to meet Kathy,” I joked, thinking it would take a very long time and couldn’t really happen. I expected Paul to be against it, but he was all for it. “That’s exactly what you should do,” he insisted, knowing how much this friendship meant to me. I struggled so much inside that I tossed and turned at night. But I finally made up my mind to visit Kathy, a friend I knew well but hadn't seen in years.
So I left paul and the kids to travel 30 hours to reach Kathy. Of course I was nervous. We’d poured our hearts out to one another for decades but had never actually met face-to-face. My nerves disappeared the moment I stepped off the plane and spotted Kathy with her mother, sisters and a good friend, all waiting for me. “I’m finally here!” I choked as we hugged each other in tears. For the next 10 days, Kathy showed me the sights of Canada. As we said goodbye, I knew this wouldn’t be the last time we saw each other. At that moment, I realized that even though we were separated by thousands of miles, our friendship remained, and I believed we would meet again!
【语篇解读】
