The six-month exhibition will show over 60 works from Guo’s two-decade-long career, inviting New Zealanders to experience the charm of her art.The exhibition not only displays Guo’s representative masterpiece, The Yellow Queen Gown and Outfits never seen before in any other gallery or museum, but also features a series of unique public events, including an interview with the artist, the Chinese New Year Festival and a fashion fantasy ball.“It is an honour to present the great work of Guo Pei to New Zealand, for the very first time,” says Kirsten Lacy, director of the Auckland Art Gallery.Guo said in her speech that she wishes to share her love and inspiration in her work with the New Zealand audience. “I want my work to show integrity (正直), to spread love, and to express my civilization, along with the culture,” the artist said. “In reality, culture and art have no borders (国界); they belong not only to a single nation but to all of humanity. A country’s museum represents the culture and its people,” she noted. “Much of my learning has come from museums, which I am very happy to present and share with everyone.”Guo herself also took part in an exchange by introducing her work to the audience, offering insights (洞察力) into the inspiration behind each creation.The Chinese Ambassador to New ZealandWang Xiaolong said, “What makes Ms GuoPei so different is the ability to combine what is traditional, what is modern and contemporary (现代的) and even futuristic. Her art combines what is East and what is West. The products are amazing beauty filled with global art.”Exhibition viewers, including the Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage, Paul Goldsmith, and Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown, showed their fondness for the craftsmanship (手艺) and elegance shown in Guo’s art.24.

Chinese Fashion Designer Wins Admirers in New ZealandCEveryone knows they feel amazingly good and refreshed (使精神振奋) after a good night’s sleep but now scientists have discovered it can help you to live longer too. According to a study in the US, healthy sleeping habits mean men can live almost five years longer, and women for two years. It also found that sleep is good for our health and reduces the risk of heart disease.However, the study by the American College of Cardiology shows it’s not just about how long you sleep and the quality of your sleep is important too. Dr Frank Qian, who led the study, said sleep must be restful. The researchers said that sleep of high quality for adults was decided by five important factors: getting seven to eight hours of sleep each night; having trouble falling asleep no more than twice a week; having trouble staying asleep no more than twice a week; not using medicine to get to sleep; and waking up feeling rested at least five days a week.Each factor was given one point, with a maximum (最大值) of five points for the highest quality of sleep. The researchers looked at the results of a survey of 172,321 people in the US that measured their health habits, including sleep, over five years. They found that people who had all five points were likely to live longer and lead healthier lives than those who had sleep difficulties.According to the Sleep Charity, a good night’s sleep can improve people’s memory and immune (免疫的) system. Dr Qian admits that no one’s sleep is perfect—everyone has a late or restless night sometimes. However, he said, “Even from a young age, if people can develop these good habits of getting enough sleep, making sure they are sleeping without too many difficulties, which stem from daily troubles or noisy surroundings. And gradually it can greatly benefit their long-term health.”The study was based only on people reporting their own sleep habits rather than recording them scientifically, so this may have affected the results and various study ways are needed.28. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 1 A. The effects of a bad sleep. B. The causes of heart disease.C. The benefits of a good sleep. D. The length of a night’s sleep.29. What can decide the quality of sleep for adults A. The bed for sleep.B. The sleeping medicine.C. The five key factors of sleep.D. The five important ways to sleep.30. Which of the words can replace the underlined phrase “stem from” in Paragraph 4 A. Differ from. B. Result from. C. Hear from. D. Benefit from.31. What is the disadvantage of the study A. Its limited objects. B. Its simple summary.C. Its shortage of enough data. D. Its single researching method.DAfter traveling through space for seven months, China’s Tianwen 1 has reached Mars and successfully entered the planet’s orbit on Wednesday—bringing it one step closer to landing on the surface.Tianwen 1, which got its name from an ancient Chinese poem, is made up of an orbiter (轨道飞行器), lander and a six-wheeled rover (巡视器) carrying scientific instruments, according to the China National Space Administration(CNSA).The CNSA said the probe (航天探测器) is expected to land on the planet’s surface in May or June, and the rover is expected to stay for three months, with the hope that it can gather important information about Mars’ geological structure, atmosphere, environment and soil, and search for any signs of water.Tianwen 1 was launched last July and its arrival in the Mars’s orbit makes China the sixth country in history to reach Mars. So far, the United States and the former Soviet Union are the only two countries to land a spacecraft on the surface of Mars. But the European Space Agency and India have already sent spacecraft to enter the planet’s orbit—and on Tuesday, the UAE (阿拉伯联合酋长国) joined their ranks, with its Hope Probe successfully entering orbit.With Tianwen 1, China is the first nation to attempt at sending both an orbiter and a rover on its first Mars mission on its own. According to the scientific team behind the mission, the probe will orbit, land and release a rover all on the very first try, and carry out experiments with an orbiter. By contrast, NASA sent many orbiters to Mars before ever attempting a landing, since pulling off the landing is a far more difficult task.China’s first attempt to reach Mars was actually in 2011 with the Yinghuo 1 probe, which was supposed to orbit the red planet and study its environmental structure. It was launched (发射) from Kazakhstan together with the Russian Phobos-Grunt mission in November that year.32. How long did Tianwen 1 travel in space before entering the Mars orbit A. Severn days. B. Three months. C. Seven months. D. Seven years.33. What is the purpose of sending Tianwen 1 A. To memorize a famous poet.B. To carry scientific equipment.C. To discover creatures on Mars.D. To gain more information about Mars.34. What is the function of the probe A. Studying Moon’s environment.B. Sending enough water to Mars.C. Sending orbiters to Mars before successfully landing.D. Cooperating with an orbiter to conduct some experiments.35. What can we learn about China’s Mars exploration A. China is the first country to send orbiter to Mars.B. China’s first attempt to reach Mars occurred in 2012.C. China once did research on Mars’ environmental structure.D. China is the sixth country to reach Mars followed by the USA.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。Four Tips to Stay Safe During a Heat Wave Very hot temperatures have been breaking records during the summer across USA.

According to a study in the US, healthy sleeping habits mean men can live almost five years longer, and women for two years. It also found that sleep is good for our health and reduces the risk of heart disease.However, the study by the American College of Cardiology shows it’s not just about how long you sleep and the quality of your sleep is important too. Dr Frank Qian, who led the study, said sleep must be restful. The researchers said that sleep of high quality for adults was decided by five important factors: getting seven to eight hours of sleep each night; having trouble falling asleep no more than twice a week; having trouble staying asleep no more than twice a week; not using medicine to get to sleep; and waking up feeling rested at least five days a week.Each factor was given one point, with a maximum (最大值) of five points for the highest quality of sleep. The researchers looked at the results of a survey of 172,321 people in the US that measured their health habits, including sleep, over five years. They found that people who had all five points were likely to live longer and lead healthier lives than those who had sleep difficulties.According to the Sleep Charity, a good night’s sleep can improve people’s memory and immune (免疫的) system. Dr Qian admits that no one’s sleep is perfect—everyone has a late or restless night sometimes. However, he said, “Even from a young age, if people can develop these good habits of getting enough sleep, making sure they are sleeping without too many difficulties, which stem from daily troubles or noisy surroundings. And gradually it can greatly benefit their long-term health.”The study was based only on people reporting their own sleep habits rather than recording them scientifically, so this may have affected the results and various study ways are needed.28. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 1 A. The effects of a bad sleep. B. The causes of heart disease.C. The benefits of a good sleep. D. The length of a night’s sleep.29. What can decide the quality of sleep for adults A. The bed for sleep.B. The sleeping medicine.C. The five key factors of sleep.D. The five important ways to sleep.30. Which of the words can replace the underlined phrase “stem from” in Paragraph 4 A. Differ from. B. Result from. C. Hear from. D. Benefit from.31. What is the disadvantage of the study A. Its limited objects. B. Its simple summary.C. Its shortage of enough data. D. Its single researching method.【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了良好的睡眠习惯的几大好处。【28题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Everyone knows they feel amazingly good and refreshed (使精神振奋) after a good night’s sleep but now scientists have discovered it can help you to live longer too. According to a study in the US, healthy sleeping habits mean men can live almost five years longer, and women for two years. It also found that sleep is good for our health and reduces the risk of heart disease.(每个人都知道，睡个好觉后会感到神清气爽、神清气爽，但现在科学家们发现，睡个好觉还能延年益寿。根据美国的一项研究，健康的睡眠习惯意味着男性可以多活近5年，女性可以多活两年。研究还发现，睡眠对我们的健康有益，可以降低患心脏病的风险)”可知，良好的睡眠习惯对心理和生理均有好处。因此，第一段主要介绍了睡眠的好处。故选C项。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers said that sleep of high quality for adults was decided by five important factors: getting seven to eight hours of sleep each night; having trouble falling asleep no more than twice a week; having trouble staying asleep no more than twice a week; not using medicine to get to sleep; and waking up feeling rested at least five days a week.(研究人员表示，成年人的高质量睡眠是由五个重要因素决定的：每晚7到8小时的睡眠；每周睡眠困难不超过两次；睡眠困难的一周睡眠困难不超过两次的；不用药物入睡；每周至少有五天醒来时感觉精力充沛)”可知，睡眠质量取决于五个关键因素。故选C项。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据后文“daily troubles or noisy surroundings.(日常的麻烦或嘈杂的环境)”可知，本句是非限制性定语从句，先行词是difficulties，所以此处表达“这些困难来自日常的麻烦或嘈杂的环境”之意，所以推知stem from是“来源，源自”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The study was based only on people reporting their own sleep habits rather than recording them scientifically, so this may have affected the results and various study ways are needed.(这项研究只是基于人们报告自己的睡眠习惯，而不是科学地记录他们的睡眠习惯，所以这可能会影响结果，需要各种研究方法)”可知，这个研究采取的方法单一。故选D项。DAfter traveling through space for seven months, China’s Tianwen 1 has reached Mars and successfully entered the planet’s orbit on Wednesday—bringing it one step closer to landing on the surface.Tianwen 1, which got its name from an ancient Chinese poem, is made up of an orbiter (轨道飞行器), lander and a six-wheeled rover (巡视器) carrying scientific instruments, according to the China National Space Administration(CNSA).The CNSA said the probe (航天探测器) is expected to land on the planet’s surface in May or June, and the rover is expected to stay for three months, with the hope that it can gather important information about Mars’ geological structure, atmosphere, environment and soil, and search for any signs of water.Tianwen 1 was launched last July, and its arrival in the Mars’s orbit makes China the sixth country in history to reach Mars. So far, the United States and the former Soviet Union are the only two countries to land a spacecraft on the surface of Mars. But the European Space Agency and India have already sent spacecraft to enter the planet’s orbit—and on Tuesday, the UAE (阿拉伯联合酋长国) joined their ranks, with its Hope Probe successfully entering orbit.With Tianwen 1, China is the first nation to attempt at sending both an orbiter and a rover on its first Mars mission on its own. According to the scientific team behind the mission, the probe will orbit, land and release a rover all on the very first try, and carry out experiments with an orbiter. By contrast, NASA sent many orbiters to Mars before ever attempting a landing, since pulling off the landing is a far more difficult task.China’s first attempt to reach Mars was actually in 2011 with the Yinghuo 1 probe, which was supposed to orbit the red planet and study its environmental structure. It was launched (发射) from Kazakhstan together with the Russian Phobos-Grunt mission in November that year.32. How long did Tianwen 1 travel in space before entering the Mars orbit A. Severn days. B. Three months. C. Seven months. D. Seven years.33. What is the purpose of sending Tianwen 1 A. To memorize a famous poet.B. To carry scientific equipment.C. To discover creatures on Mars.D. To gain more information about Mars.34. What is the function of the probe A. Studying Moon’s environment.B. Sending enough water to Mars.C. Sending orbiters to Mars before successfully landing.D. Cooperating with an orbiter to conduct some experiments.35. What can we learn about China’s Mars exploration A. China is the first country to send orbiter to Mars.B. China’s first attempt to reach Mars occurred in 2012.C. China once did research on Mars’ environmental structure.D. China is the sixth country to reach Mars followed by the USA.【答案】32. C 33. D 34.

According to the scientific team behind the mission, the probe will orbit, land and release a rover all on the very first try, and carry out experiments with an orbiter. By contrast, NASA sent many orbiters to Mars before ever attempting a landing, since pulling off the landing is a far more difficult task.(随着“天文一号”的发射，中国成为第一个尝试在首次火星任务中同时发射轨道飞行器和漫游者的国家。据该任务背后的科学团队称，探测器将在第一次尝试中绕轨道运行，着陆并释放一个探测器，并在轨道飞行器上进行实验。相比之下，美国宇航局在尝试登陆火星之前就向火星发射了许多轨道飞行器，因为成功登陆火星是一项艰巨得多的任务)”可知，探测器的功能是和轨道飞行器一起进行火星实验。故选D项。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“China’s first attempt to reach Mars was actually in 2011 with the Yinghuo 1 probe, which was supposed to orbit the red planet and study its environmental structure. It was launched (发射) from Kazakhstan together with the Russian Phobos-Grunt mission in November that year.(中国第一次尝试到达火星是在2011年，当时发射的是“火火1号”探测器，目的是围绕这颗红色星球运行，研究它的环境结构。同年11月，它与俄罗斯的“火卫一”任务一起从哈萨克斯坦发射升空)”可知，中国曾经探索研究过火星的环境结构。故选C项。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。Four Tips to Stay Safe During a Heat Wave Very hot temperatures have been breaking records during the summer across USA.

When I was young, my father was a fish and wildlife officer, so he traveled all over the province in the spring and fall. He loved his job, especially the part where he protected nature from human.He’d taught me to fish alone, in silence, lost in my own thoughts.I still remembered that special day. Midweek, even in late August, no one was around. Police Outpost Lake is as far as you can go and still be in Canada. Songbirds, ducks, and Canada geese glided (滑翔) by on the breeze, touching down briefly on the water’s surface before flapping and quacking their way back up into the sky, passing in front of the sun, temporarily blocking its warming rays.“How can I get the fish with these birds making noise ” I complained, rod (鱼竿) in my hand.“Be patient, Jacob. Birds won’t disturb you.”Out of the corner of my eyes, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a few great northern loons (潜鸟) stayed together not far from the shoreline. Dad once told me loon usually travel alone, but here were five of them in a group. Maybe it was a family One loon, making odd sounds, swam away from the group, towards me.This is unusual.“Dad! Come here! Take a look at this loon!”Hearing this, dad laid his rod down on the dirty sand, walking quickly towards me.The loon rested in the shallow water near shore, not ten feet away from us. It was so close, we could see its red eyes.“Look at that beak (喙)!”I said. “It could easily hurt us to death with that thing! It could tear our faces! Blind our eyes!”Walking into the water, getting closer to the loon, we both saw thin wire wrapped around its neck.

I could see there was a shiny red hook embedded in its body, and fishing line was wrapped tightly around its neck. I splashed my way to the shore and came back with a tiny pair of scissors we used for snipping off the end of fishing line. “You have to hold it, Jacob. If it struggles, the hook would kill it.” When I bent down to pick up the loon, my hands were shaking, afraid that it might stab me with its beak. But the loon was silent and still.“Hurry, Dad! I can’t hold this bird forever, you know!” I said. Using the scissors, dad cut away the fishing line from around the loon’s neck. Then, slowly but steadily, his fingers worked to loosen the hook from the bird’s flesh and finally he set the loon free. I patted the loon’s head, a gesture of gratitude that it hadn’t used its beak as a weapon. Never would I forget the scene, when that family of loons flapped and quickened their way back up into the sky.【解析】【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者回想起了父亲教他钓鱼的情景。父亲曾是一名鱼类和野生动物官员。他热爱他的工作，尤其是他保护自然不受人类侵害的部分。这时候作者看见一只潜鸟在哀号，发出声音，从鸟群中游出来，向作者他们游来，走近潜鸟，看到细鱼线缠在它的脖子上，作者认为是在向他们求救。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“我伸手摸到了它的羽毛，我的心怦怦直跳。”可知，第一段可描写作者看到潜鸟伤势严重，想救它却又怕被潜鸟的喙弄伤。②由第二段首句内容““快点，爸爸！你知道，我不能永远抱着这只鸟！”我说。”可知，第二段可描写潜鸟获救的过程。2.续写线索：检查伤势——发现钩子——取出钩子——被释放——感谢3.词汇激活行为类看到：see/notice颤抖：shake/tremble释放：set free/release情绪类害怕的：afraid/frightened感谢：gratitude/appreciation【点睛】[高分句型1]When I bent down to pick up the loon, my hands were shaking, afraid that it might stab me with its beak.（运用了when引导时间状语从句，that引导宾语从句）[高分句型2]Never would I forget the scene, when that family of loons flapped and quickened their way back up into the sky.（运用了部分倒装） 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 精品解析：湖北省荆州市八县市2023-2024学年高一上学期期末联考英语试题（含听力）（原卷版）.docx 精品解析：湖北省荆州市八县市2023-2024学年高一上学期期末联考英语试题（含听力）（解析版）.docx 1.mp3 10.mp3 2.mp3 3.mp3 4.mp3 5.mp3 6.mp3 7.mp3 8.mp3 9.mp3
