As I entered the schools gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean.(对大多数青少年来说，高中是一个新的冒险和挑战开始的地方。我清楚地记得我高中的第一天。当我进入学校大门时，我受到一群学生的欢迎。走廊里谈笑风生。要处理的事情太多了，我觉得自己就像浩瀚海洋中的一条小鱼。)”推知，作者一开始会觉得自己是汪洋大海中的一条小鱼是源于对陌生环境的恐惧。故选C。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段“My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas.(我的英语老师Johnson女士做了自我介绍，使大家感到很舒服。她解释了我们这学期将要学习的内容，并鼓励我们分享自己的想法和想法。)”可知，作者的英语老师Johnson女士善于鼓舞学生，且她解释学期要学的内容对学生来说是有帮助的。故选D。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr. Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.(下一堂课是数学，这恰好是我最弱的科目。当我走进教室时，我感到胃里一阵紧张，但我的数学老师Smith先生却很有耐心。他向我们保证，我们将一起学习和提高。他支持的话语让我感到更放松，我开始相信我可以克服我的数学难题。)”可知，作者由于自己数学不好，所以走进数学课堂时感到焦虑紧张。故选B。【7题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I real zed that high school wasn’t just about academics(学术); it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.(午餐时，我和一群学生坐在一起，他们很快就成了我的朋友。我们分享故事，谈论我们对高中的期望。正是在这段时间里，我真正意识到高中不仅仅是学习；这也是关于建立友谊和留下持久的回忆。)”可知，在午餐期间，作者明白了高中不仅仅是学习，还可以建立友谊。故选D。CPeople are motivated to try a vegetarian diet for different reasons-from religious beliefs to potential health and environmental benefits. But many people have a hard time sticking with it. In fact studies show many self-reported vegetarians actually do consume some animal products.“A lot of people who want to be vegetarian are perhaps notable to.” says Dr. Nabeel Yassen of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “We wanted to know if genetics is part of the reason,” he says.Yaseen and his colleagues compared the DNA of about 330,000 people, using data from the UK Biobank initiative The study included 5.324 vegetarians, who had not eaten any animal flesh or products obtained from animals for at least one year. They found 34 genes that may play a role in maintain a strict vegetarian diet. And they identified 3 genes that are more tightly linked to it.“What we can say is that these genes have something to do with vegetarianism (素食主义),” Yaseen says. “Perhaps vegetarians have different variants (变体) of these genes that make them able to pursue a strict vegetarian diet,” he explains. The study is published in PLOS ONE, a science journal.Of the three genes most strongly associated with vegetarianism, the authors say two of them have important functions in fat metabolism (新陈代谢). The study can’t answer exactly how genetic differences could shape or influence vegetarians, but Dr. Yaseen has some ideas. “One theory is that maybe there’s a fat nutrient, or nutrients, in meat that some people need and others don’t,” he says.“Lots of factors influence what we eat, everything from our taste preferences, to our budgets to our culture. So, the idea that food choice is a so influenced by genetics is not surprising,” Yaseen says. “But this is just the first step,” he adds, “More research is needed to determine which genes and which variants maybe crucial.”8. What is the purpose of the study A. To explore the cultural aspects of vegetarianism.B. To promote vegetarianism among senior people.C. To determine why people choose a vegetarian diet.D. To find out whether genes are related to vegetarianism.9. How does the author mainly organize Paragraph 3 A. By presenting some examples. B. By giving definitions.C. By making comparisons. D. By listing some numbers.10. What can we learn from Yaseen’s words A. Genes have no influence on vegetarianism.B. More research needs conducting to identify critical genes.C. The study has successfully determined the key genetic variants.D. The study accurately explains how genetics shape food choices.11. What is the best title for the text A. Benefits of a Vegetarian Diet B. The Rules of a Meatless LifestyleC. The Genetic Factors in Vegetarianism D. Environmental Impact of Vegetarianism【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有些人想尝试素食主义，但是往往无法坚持，一项研究显示，有些基因可能与能否坚持严格素食饮食有关，虽然该研究目前无法准确解释基因与素食者之间的关联，但是它揭示了遗传学的未知面。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段““A lot of people who want to be vegetarian are perhaps notable to.” says Dr. Nabeel Yassen of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “We wanted to know if genetics is part of the reason,” he says.(“很多想成为素食主义者的人可能是值得注意的。西北大学范伯格医学院的Nabeel Yassen博士说。“我们想知道基因是否是部分原因，”他说)”可知，Nabeel Yassen博士他们进行这项研究的目的是想知道基因是否与素食主义有关。故选D。【9题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Yaseen and his colleagues compared the DNA of about 330.000 people, using data from the UK Biobank initiative The study included 5.324 vegetarians, who had not eaten any animal flesh or products obtained from animals for at least one year. They found 34 genes that may play a role in maintain a strict vegetarian diet. And they identified 3 genes that are more tightly linked to it.(Yaseen和他的同事们利用英国生物银行倡议的数据，比较了大约33万人的DNA。这项研究包括5.324名素食者，他们至少一年没有吃过任何动物肉或动物制品。他们发现34个基因可能在维持严格的素食饮食中发挥作用。他们确定了3个与之密切相关的基因)”可推知，作者主要通过列举一些数字来组织第三段。故选D。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““But this is just the first step,” he adds, “More research is needed to determine which genes and which variants maybe crucial.”(“但这只是第一步，”他补充说，“需要更多的研究来确定哪些基因和哪些变异可能是关键的。”)”可推知，Yaseen认为还需要进行更多的研究来确定关键基因。故选B。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第四段““What we can say is that these genes have something to do with vegetarianism (素食主义),” Yaseen says. “Perhaps vegetarians have different variants (变体) of these genes that make them able to pursue a strict vegetarian diet,” he explains. The study is published in PLOS ONE, a science journal.(“我们能说的是，这些基因与素食主义有关，” Yaseen说。他解释说：“也许素食者有这些基因的不同变体，使他们能够追求严格的素食饮食。”这项研究发表在科学杂志《公共科学图书馆·综合》上)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要探讨了基因如何影响人们成为素食主义者的能力和倾向，介绍了相关的研究结果和理论。由此可知，The Genetic Factors in Vegetarianism(素食主义的遗传因素)适合作本文最佳标题。故选C。DIn various restaurants worldwide, there’s a new sight-child-sized robots. These robots can welcome guests, show them to their tables, deliver food and drinks, and even transport dirty dishes back to the kitchen. Some believe these robot waiters could be a solution to today’s worker shortages in the restaurant industry, with tens of thousands of them now in use.But other people think that robots can’t replace human workers. Robot waiters can’t take orders, and they struggle with steps, limiting their abilities.Despite these disadvantages, their use is growing. For example, in Madison Heights, Michigan, Li Zhai faced difficulty finding enough workers for his restaurant, Noodle Topia. To address this, he purchased robots from Pudu Robotics. These robots have been a success, with one leading diners to their seats, another delivering food, and a third transporting dirty dishes.Zhai found that using these robots reduced his need for employees. Three robots now do the work of what used to require five or six people. In terms of cost, a robot costs around $15 000, while a human can cost $5,000 to $6,000 per month. These robots also have a surprising benefit-they free up human servers to spend more time with customers, resulting in increased tips, Additionally, diners often share videos of the robots on social media, attracting more visitors to the restaurant.However, not all restaurants have had the same success. For instance, Chili’s (奇利斯餐厅)introduced robot servers in 2020, expanding the test to 61U.S. restaurants before suddenly stopping the program. The robots were criticized (批评) for their slow movement and getting in the way of human servers. A survey showed that 58% of guests believed the robots didn’t improve their overall dining experience.12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph A. To introduce a survey about robot waiters.B. To show the success of robot waiters in restaurants.C. To describe the appearance of child-sized robots in restaurants.D. To discuss the challenges of hiring human workers in restaurants.13. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 3 probably mean A. Solve. B. Narrow. C. Ignore. D. Control.14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about A. The history of robot waiters in the U.S.B. The challenges of introducing robot servers.C. The effect of social media on the restaurant industry.D. The advantages of using robots in the restaurant industry.15. What can be inferred from the passage A. All restaurants with robot servers are successful.B. The use of robot waiters still has a long way to go.C Robot waiters are cheaper to employ than human workers.D. The restaurant industry is not affected by worker shortages.【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了餐馆中使用机器人服务员的情况，包括其优点和缺点，以及不同餐馆的成功和失败经验。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In various restaurants worldwide, there’s a new sight-child-sized robots. These robots can welcome guests, show them to their tables, deliver food and drinks, and even transport dirty dishes back to the kitchen. Some believe these robot waiters could be a solution to today’s worker shortages in the restaurant industry, with tens of thousands of them now in use.(在世界各地的餐馆里，都有一种儿童大小的新型机器人。这些机器人可以欢迎客人，带他们到桌子前，送食物和饮料，甚至把脏盘子运回厨房。一些人认为，这些机器人服务员可以解决当今餐饮业工人短缺的问题，目前已有数万台机器人投入使用)”可推知，第一段主要是为了告诉我们机器人服务员在餐馆的使用非常成功。故选B。【13题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Despite these disadvantages, their use is growing. For example, in Madison Heights, Michigan, Li Zhai faced difficulty finding enough workers for his restaurant, Noodle Topia.(尽管有这些缺点，但它们的使用正在增长。例如，在密歇根州的麦迪逊高地，Li Zhai的餐馆Noodle Topia很难找到足够的工人)”以及划线单词下文“These robots have been a success, with one leading diners to their seats, another delivering food, and a third transporting dirty dishes.(这些机器人已经取得了成功，其中一个将就餐者带到座位上，另一个提供食物，第三个运送脏盘子)”可知，Li Zhai使用机器人服务员是为了解决饭店招不到工人的问题。由此可知，划线单词意为“解决”。选项A“Solve(解决)”；选项B“Narrow(缩小)”；选项C“Ignore(忽视)”；选项D“Control(控制)”。故选A。【14题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Zhai found that using these robots reduced his need for employees. Three robots now do the work of what used to require five or six people. In terms of cost, a robot costs around $15,000, while a human can cost $5,000 to $6,000 per month. These robots also have a surprising benefit-they free up human servers to spend more time with customers, resulting in increased tips, Additionally, diners often share videos of the robots on social media, attracting more visitors to the restaurant.(Zhai发现，使用这些机器人减少了他对员工的需求。过去需要五六个人才能完成的工作，现在三个机器人就能完成。在成本方面，一个机器人的成本约为15000美元，而一个人每月的成本为5000至6000美元。这些机器人还有一个惊人的好处——它们解放了人类服务员，让他们有更多的时间和顾客在一起，从而增加了小费。此外，食客们经常在社交媒体上分享机器人的视频，吸引更多的游客来餐厅)”可知，第四段主要讲述了在餐饮业使用机器人的优势。故选D。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The robots were criticized (批评) for their slow movement and getting in the way of human servers. A survey showed that 58% of guests believed the robots didn’t improve their overall dining experience.(这些机器人因动作缓慢和妨碍人类服务而受到批评。一项调查显示，58%的客人认为机器人并没有改善他们的整体用餐体验)”可知，并不是所有的机器人服务员都取得了成功。由此推知，机器人服务员的使用还有很长的路要走。故选B。第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。For anyone going through a difficult time, I want to pass on the list of the steps that I created. These steps have helped me move forward in the past few years. I’m not a professional, but these steps have helped me and I want to share them with you. Here are my several steps to move forward.Talk When You’re Ready: _____16_____When you’re ready to talk, find someone who you can talk to as an equal and whose opinion you value, and pour your heart out. Sometimes, just having someone who cares and who is there for you gives you the power you need to move on.Escape When You Need To: but not too often. Sometimes life delivers hardships and your heart and mind are too full to process things in a healthy way._____17_____You can watch a TV show or movie, read a book, or surf the Internet. Take a break from the things that are weighing you down, and comeback to them later with a fresh outlook. But don’t escape too often, because escaping never makes your problems go away._____18_____Reach Out: Interaction(交流)is an important thing in any person’s life. Reaching out doesn’t necessarily mean telling everyone about your struggles._____19_____It can mean laughing and teasing each other, but it also means support. This support is like a strong wall that can carry you through challenging moments. These are the people who know how to encourage you when you’re facing difficulties.Channel(引导) Your Nervous Energy:_____20_____The best way to prevent this is to throw yourself into another project, a more relaxing one. For me, this usually means writing, scrapbooking, or artwork of some kind. I actually find that some of my best poetry is written when I’m trying not to breakdown.A. In these moments, escape is essential.B. Hope is finally what allows you to move on.C. You always have to deal with them eventually.D. Often you may find yourself stressing out and worrying.E. Instead, it means finding people you enjoy and spending time with them.F. Sometimes you feel like talking things through and sometimes you don’t.G. Find the things that inspire you the most, and absorb them into your world.【答案】16. F 17. A 18. C 19. E 20. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助那些正在经历困难时期的人。【16题详解】根据空后“When you’re ready to talk, find someone who you can talk to as an equal and whose opinion you value, and pour your heart out.(当你准备好了要说话的时候，找一个你可以平等交谈的人，他的意见是你看重的，然后把你的心事倾吐出来。)”可知，当准备好了要倾诉的时候，你就找个可以平等交谈的人谈谈。选项F“Sometimes you feel like talking things through and sometimes you don’t.(有时候你想把事情讲清楚，有时候又不想。)”与下文内容相一致，指的是有时候你想倾诉，有时候不想，当你准备好了的时候，就找人谈谈。故选F。【17题详解】根据上文内容“Escape When You Need To: but not too often. Sometimes life delivers hardships, and your heart and mind are too full to process things in a healthy way.(当你需要的时候逃避：但不要太频繁。有时生活充满艰辛，你的心灵和思想太满，无法以健康的方式处理事情。)”可知，当你需要逃避的时候就逃避，但是不要太频繁。选项A“In these moments, escape is essential.(在这种时刻，逃离是必不可少的。)”是上文内容的自然延续，而“these moments”指的正是上文提到的“Sometimes life delivers hardships, and your heart and mind are too full to process things in a healthy way.”故选A。【18题详解】根据上文内容“But don’t escape too often, because escaping never makes your problems go away.(但不要经常逃避，因为逃避永远不会让你的问题消失。)”可知，逃避并不能使问题消失。选项C“You always have to deal with them eventually.(你最终总是还要处理这些问题。)”是上文内容的自然延续，指的是回避并不能让问题消失，你最终还是要处理这些问题。故选C。【19题详解】根据空前内容“Reaching out doesn’t necessarily mean telling everyone about your struggles.(伸出手并不一定意味着告诉每个人你的挣扎。)”可知，向别人求助并不是要告诉每个人。选项E“Instead, it means finding people you enjoy and spending time with them.(相反，它意味着找到你喜欢的人，花时间和他们在一起。)”与上文内容一致，指的是当我们遇到困难的时候，不是让每个人都知道你的困难，而是找到自己喜欢的人，与他们一起。故选E。【20题详解】根据下文内容“The best way to prevent this is to throw yourself into another project, a more relaxing one. (防止这种情况发生的最好方法是把自己投入到另一个项目中，一个更放松的项目。)”中的“prevent this”和“a more relaxing one”可推测，空处指的应该是有压力。选项D“Often you may find yourself stressing out and worrying(你经常会发现自己压力很大，很担心。)”指的正是我们常常会觉得有压力，与下文内容一致。故选D。第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When Darrell Langworthy was growing up, Thanksgiving meant 30 neighbors sharing a potluck meal in the family driveway. “My parents worked at a golf course.

He had a litter of adorable puppies that he needed to find new homes for. One sunny morning, he decided to paint a sign advertising the puppies and set off to nail it to a post at the edge of his yard.As he hammered in the last nail, he felt a small hand pulling at his clothes. Looking down, he saw the sincere eyes of a little boy looking up at him. The boy said. “Sir. I want to buy one of your puppies.”The farmer, wiping the sweat from his face, replied, “Well, these puppies come from fine parents and costa good deal of money.” The boy’s head drooped (下垂) for a moment, but he reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful of change, holding it up to the farmer. “I’ve got 89 cents. Is that enough at least to take a look ”The farmer’s heart warmed, and he smiled, saying, “Of course.” He then let out a whistle (口哨), calling, “Here, Dolly!” With that, a charming sight appeared as Dolly and her four adorable pups rushed out from the doghouse and down the slope. The little boy pressed his face against the fence, his eyes dancing with delight.As the four puppies approached the fence, the boy noticed something moving inside the doghouse. Slowly, another little fur ball appeared, obviously smaller than the others, It wobbled (摇晃) down the slope, doing its best to catch up. The boy was very excited, and he pointed to the puppy, saying, “I want that one.”The farmer, however, knelt down at the boy’s side and gently said, “Son, you won’t want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”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。The boy took a step back, showing his disabled left leg.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________The little boy’s face lit up with gratitude (感激).___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】The boy took a step back, showing his disabled left leg. The farmer noticed the boy’s leg for the first time and realized why he wanted the puppy that was struggling to keep up. The boy looked up at the farmer and said, “Sir, I don’t run very well myself, so I understand. That puppy will need someone like me who can understand and love him just the way he is.”The little boy’s face lit up with gratitude. “Thank you, sir,” he said. “You have given me the best gift anyone could ever give. I promise to take good care of him and love him forever.” The farmer felt a warmth in his heart as he watched the little boy hug the puppy tightly. He knew that he had made the right decision. With a final nod and a smile, the farmer handed the puppy over to the boy. As the boy walked away, the farmer couldn’t help but think about the power of kindness and how a simple act of compassion could change a life forever. From that day on, the farmer continued to spread kindness wherever he went, knowing that it was the greatest gift of all.【解析】【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个农民出售小狗的故事，一个小男孩想要买一只小狗，可是没有足够的钱，这时他看到了一只腿有残疾的小狗，非常想拥有这只狗。农民很奇怪，直到他看到了小男孩自己的腿也有残疾。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“男孩向后退了一步，露出了他残废的左腿。”以及第二段首句内容“小男孩的脸上充满了感激之情。”可知，第一段可描写农民明白了男孩的用意，深有感触。②由第二段首句内容“小男孩的脸上充满了感激之情。”可知，第二段可描写农民将小狗送给了小男孩。2.续写线索：一个善良的农民想要出售一窝小狗——一个小男孩没有足够的钱，想要看看小狗——小男孩看到一只小狗腿有残疾——他向农民表示自己想要那只腿有残疾的小狗——农民觉得很惊讶——这时男孩向农民展示了自己的腿，原来他自己的腿就有残疾——农民很有感触——男孩说自己很明白小狗的感受，想要陪伴小狗长大——农民非常感动，将小狗送给了小男孩3.词汇激活行为类①注意到：notice/observe②照顾：take care of/look after③承诺：promise/make a promise情绪类①善意：kindness/benevolence②同情：compassion/pity【点睛】【高分句型1】The farmer noticed the boy’s leg for the first time and realized why he wanted the puppy that was struggling to keep up.（运用了why引导的宾语从句和that引导的定语从句）【高分句型2】The farmer felt a warmth in his heart as he watched the little boy hug the puppy tightly.（运用了as引导的状语从句）NT20名校联合体高一年级期中考试英语注意事项: 1.考试时间为120分钟，满分150分，2.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡相应的位置。第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分)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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

As I entered the schools gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost.My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr. Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academics (学术); it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings.4. Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first A.

But many people have a hard time sticking with it. In fact studies show many self-reported vegetarians actually do consume some animal products.“A lot of people who want to be vegetarian are perhaps notable to.” says Dr. Nabeel Yassen of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “We wanted to know if genetics is part of the reason,” he says.Yaseen and his colleagues compared the DNA of about 330,000 people, using data from the UK Biobank initiative The study included 5.324 vegetarians, who had not eaten any animal flesh or products obtained from animals for at least one year. They found 34 genes that may play a role in maintain a strict vegetarian diet. And they identified 3 genes that are more tightly linked to it.“What we can say is that these genes have something to do with vegetarianism (素食主义),” Yaseen says. “Perhaps vegetarians have different variants (变体) of these genes that make them able to pursue a strict vegetarian diet,” he explains. The study is published in PLOS ONE, a science journal.Of the three genes most strongly associated with vegetarianism, the authors say two of them have important functions in fat metabolism (新陈代谢). The study can’t answer exactly how genetic differences could shape or influence vegetarians, but Dr. Yaseen has some ideas. “One theory is that maybe there’s a fat nutrient, or nutrients, in meat that some people need and others don’t,” he says.“Lots of factors influence what we eat, everything from our taste preferences, to our budgets to our culture. So, the idea that food choice is a so influenced by genetics is not surprising,” Yaseen says. “But this is just the first step,” he adds, “More research is needed to determine which genes and which variants maybe crucial.”8. What is the purpose of the study A. To explore the cultural aspects of vegetarianism.B. To promote vegetarianism among senior people.C. To determine why people choose a vegetarian diet.D. To find out whether genes are related to vegetarianism.9. How does the author mainly organize Paragraph 3 A. By presenting some examples. B. By giving definitions.C. By making comparisons. D. By listing some numbers.10. What can we learn from Yaseen’s words A. Genes have no influence on vegetarianism.B. More research needs conducting to identify critical genes.C. The study has successfully determined the key genetic variants.D. The study accurately explains how genetics shape food choices.11. What is the best title for the text A. Benefits of a Vegetarian Diet B. The Rules of a Meatless LifestyleC. The Genetic Factors in Vegetarianism D. Environmental Impact of VegetarianismDIn various restaurants worldwide, there’s a new sight-child-sized robots. These robots can welcome guests, show them to their tables, deliver food and drinks, and even transport dirty dishes back to the kitchen. Some believe these robot waiters could be a solution to today’s worker shortages in the restaurant industry, with tens of thousands of them now in use.But other people think that robots can’t replace human workers. Robot waiters can’t take orders, and they struggle with steps, limiting their abilities.Despite these disadvantages, their use is growing. For example, in Madison Heights, Michigan, Li Zhai faced difficulty finding enough workers for his restaurant, Noodle Topia. To address this, he purchased robots from Pudu Robotics. These robots have been a success, with one leading diners to their seats, another delivering food, and a third transporting dirty dishes.Zhai found that using these robots reduced his need for employees. Three robots now do the work of what used to require five or six people. In terms of cost, a robot costs around $15 000, while a human can cost $5,000 to $6,000 per month. These robots also have a surprising benefit-they free up human servers to spend more time with customers, resulting in increased tips, Additionally, diners often share videos of the robots on social media, attracting more visitors to the restaurant.However, not all restaurants have had the same success. For instance, Chili’s (奇利斯餐厅)introduced robot servers in 2020, expanding the test to 61U.S. restaurants before suddenly stopping the program. The robots were criticized (批评) for their slow movement and getting in the way of human servers. A survey showed that 58% of guests believed the robots didn’t improve their overall dining experience.12 What is the purpose of the first paragraph A. To introduce a survey about robot waiters.B. To show the success of robot waiters in restaurants.C. To describe the appearance of child-sized robots in restaurants.D. To discuss the challenges of hiring human workers in restaurants.13. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 3 probably mean A. Solve. B. Narrow. C. Ignore. D. Control.14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about A. The history of robot waiters in the U.S.B. The challenges of introducing robot servers.C. The effect of social media on the restaurant industry.D. The advantages of using robots in the restaurant industry.15. What can be inferred from the passage A. All restaurants with robot servers are successful.B. The use of robot waiters still has a long way to go.C. Robot waiters are cheaper to employ than human workers.D. The restaurant industry is not affected by worker shortages.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。For anyone going through a difficult time, I want to pass on the list of the steps that I created.

He had a litter of adorable puppies that he needed to find new homes for. One sunny morning, he decided to paint a sign advertising the puppies and set off to nail it to a post at the edge of his yard.As he hammered in the last nail, he felt a small hand pulling at his clothes. Looking down, he saw the sincere eyes of a little boy looking up at him. The boy said. “Sir. I want to buy one of your puppies.”The farmer, wiping the sweat from his face, replied, “Well, these puppies come from fine parents and costa good deal of money.” The boy’s head drooped (下垂) for a moment, but he reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful of change, holding it up to the farmer. “I’ve got 89 cents. Is that enough at least to take a look ”The farmer’s heart warmed and he smiled, saying, “Of course.” He then let out a whistle (口哨), calling, “Here, Dolly!” With that, a charming sight appeared as Dolly and her four adorable pups rushed out from the doghouse and down the slope. The little boy pressed his face against the fence, his eyes dancing with delight.As the four puppies approached the fence, the boy noticed something moving inside the doghouse. Slowly, another little fur ball appeared, obviously smaller than the others, It wobbled (摇晃) down the slope, doing its best to catch up. The boy was very excited, and he pointed to the puppy, saying, “I want that one.”The farmer, however, knelt down at the boy’s side and gently said, “Son, you won’t want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”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。The boy took a step back, showing his disabled left leg.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________The little boy’s face lit up with gratitude (感激).___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 精品解析：河北省保定市N20名校联合体2023-2024学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题（原卷版）.docx 精品解析：河北省保定市N20名校联合体2023-2024学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题（解析版）.docx
