When asked how important it is that he’s having fun when he’s doing it, Van Dyke replied, “My whole career has relied on that. It’s such a blessing to find a way of making a living that you love. I feel so sorry for people who hate their job. I look forward to going to work every morning!”And some of his work helped define a generation. Take “The Dick Van Dyke Show”; it ran for five years on CBS, and it was such a hit that they’re bringing it back. This week, CBS aired a two-hour tribute (致敬), “Dick Van Dyke, 98 Years of Magic”, and for the occasion, they recreated the original Dick Van Dyke Show” set, down to that well-known sofa.Early in his career Van Dyke was quoted as saying he only wanted to make films his children could watch. That got the attention of Walt Disney, who promptly cast him in “Mary Poppins”. And his next few films were equally family-friendly, like “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” which happened to have been co-written by James Bond creator Ian Fleming. From then on, Van Dyke was almost always assigned to play the good guy, though he claims to have missed out on a choice part: “Yeah, I could have been James Bond. When Sean Connery left, the producer said, ‘Would you like to be the next Bond ’ I said, ‘Have you heard my British accent ’ That’s a true story!”It seems that in show biz the true legends never stop. In an interview from 2017 with his friends, Van Dyke described what it was like hitting 90: “People are more afraid of aging than they are of death these days. And I want to say that remain young in heart and there’s a lot of good living to do.”24.What can we infer from Dyke’s reply in Paragraph 1 A.He enjoys his job. B.He hates morning work.C.He sees his job as a burden. D.He prefers leisure to work.25.What did CBS do for Dyke A.They created a new set for his show.B.They bought a famous sofa for him.C.They made a special program for him.D.They invited young generation to watch his show.26.Which statement is true about Dyke’s career A.His films are rarely family-friendly.B.His films are only made for his children.C.Van Dyke was always playing the good guy.D.Van Dyke had the chance to play James Bond.27.What can be a suitable title for the text A.Forever Young. B.Work Comes First.C.Always Have Fun. D.Legends Are Timeless.CThis story is part of Nature’s 10, an annual list produced by the world’s leading science journal Nature, exploring individuals who contributed to the key developments in science. On the 2023 list published, the journal included a non-human entity — ChatGPT, for the first time.ChatGPT and related software can help to brainstorm ideas, enhance scientific search engines and identify research gaps in the literature, says Marinka Zitnik, who works on AI for medical research at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. Models trained in similar ways on scientific data could help to build AI systems that can guide research, perhaps by designing new molecules or simulating cell behaviour, Zitnik adds.But why include a computer program in a list of people who have shaped science in 2023 ChatGPT is not a person. But actually, it and other generative artificial-intelligence (AI) programs are changing how scientists work. They have also rekindled debates about the limits of AI, the nature of human intelligence and how best to regulate the interaction between the two. That’s why this year’s Nature’s 10 has a non-human addition.Interestingly, Nature’s list also includes one of its creators. Ilya Sutskever, the chief scientist and cofounder of OpenAI, the organization that created ChatGPT, is one of the minds at the forefront of generative artificial intelligence. He saw this company as an opportunity to develop general artificial intelligence that could outperform humans and develop its own consciousness.Sutskever believes that artificial intelligence’s potential is too great for models to be available to anyone who wants to use them, and he was among the first to realize that the systems that scientists like his mentor, Geoffrey Hinton, had begun to develop would begin to show their actual capabilities as computing power increased. In recent months, he devoted his efforts toward creating a method to direct and control artificial intelligence systems that are more intelligent than humans.28.Which of the following is true about Nature’s 10 according to the passage A.Nature’s 10 is celebrating the development of science technology.B.Only human beings were elected as Nature’s 10 before.C.Nature’s 10 was started in 2023 for the first time.D.It was awarded by the local government yearly.29.What is the second paragraph about A.Experts’ opinions on ChatGPT.B.How ChatGPT functions.C.The application of ChatGPT in science research.D.The promotion of ChatGPT.30.What does the underlined word rekindled in paragraph 3 mean A.Settled. B.Restarted. C.Participated. D.Launched.31.Which of the following can best describe Ilya Sutskever’s attitude towards ChatGPT A.Confident and cautious. B.Proud and concerned.C.Objective and doubtful. D.Enthusiastic and warning.DImagine that a futuristic roof garden is so intelligent that it knows when to store water for drought conditions, and when to dump water to prevent flooding. Now these smart roofs are becoming a reality in the Netherlands.With more than half the country located below sea level, the Netherlands has a history of flooding. Now climate change has brought more severe weather, heavy rainfall, and even drought to the area, forcing the city of Amsterdam to consider new ways to protect itself, and that’s where Resilio comes in.According to their website, Resilio builds blue-green roofs throughout Amsterdam. Together with the local government, from the years 2018 to 2022 they fixed specialized roofs in Amsterdam neighborhoods that are in the most danger of flood damage.These roofs are made of many layers. The most important layer is the water retention (保存) layer. In time of heavy rainfall, this layer collects rainwater that would otherwise flood the streets, while in time of drought its water feeds the garden on the top layer. It is this layer that differentiates the blue-green roofs from the regular green roofs. A study shows that the blue-green roofs can capture up to 97% of extreme rain, as opposed to the about 12% that the regular green roofs can capture.What makes Resilio roofs so unique, however, are their systems. Multiple blue-green roofs are connected via a digital network, meaning the roofs can each be controlled individually, responding to the amount of water collected on that particular roof as needed. Each roof also has a valve (阀门) that is connected to a computer system called the Decision Support System (DSS). The DSS networks with local weather forecasts to decide whether the valve on a particular roof should open, spilling water safely and slowly into the sewer (下水道) system, or whether it should remain closed and collect the coming rain.These are the innovations that make Resilio truly revolutionary. Blue-green roofs show that the solutions to the dangers climate change brings need to be creative and must work on many levels.32.What may directly lead to the building of Resilio roofs in Amsterdam A.The increasing disasters.B.The city’s financial suffering.C.The ever-rising sea level.D.The city’s geographic advantage.33.What do we know about the water retention layer of Resilio roofs A.They are slow to drought.B.They are absolutely perfect.C.They serve a double purpose.D.They can trap solar energy.34.What is the main function of the DSS according to the text A.To collect weather information. B.To control the use of the valve.C.To help the sewer system work. D.To connect the digital network.35.Which of the following can best describe Resilio roofs A.Challenging. B.Complicated. C.Beautiful. D.Smart.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。For the holiday gathering, you may be wondering how you’re going to pull it off. Before we go into the specifics, a few words of general advice: You don’t have to throw the party your parents did. 36We talked to a party-planning expert, Miller. Here’s her advice on how to host a stress-free holiday gathering without losing your mind.37The best way to avoid being exhausted is to be prepared. Many seasoned hosts set their tables several days in advance. “Always pretend your event is a few days before.” Miller says. 38 She recommends cleaning the house, rounding up an extra dining chair and buying drinks a few days in advance.Pick a serving setup.Before you choose your menu, determine your serving style. 39 If you’ve got the space for it, a family-style meal — where people sit around a table and food is passed on big plates — can cut down on the need for complicated decorations. “Food can be part of the design, so you’re not going crazy with flowers or anything,” she says.Embrace a mixed menu.The pandemic has made takeout an option not only for family dinners, but also for entertaining, because many restaurants now offer specific holiday dinner dishes to take home. 40 “You can do a party with literally no cooking,” Ramos says. “I like to live in the in-between, but it’s up to you.” Time- and stress-savers include relying on make-ahead dishes.A.This is your show.B.Dress the house in your own style.C.Be prepared with a carefully worked-out plan.D.You can get great food from so many local places.E.Throw a party that isn’t on the holiday itself.F.Buffets are good if you don’t have a large dining table.G.There is always work you have to do at the last minute.第三部分 语言运用(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,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I was thirty-four the first time I saw the real Santa.He drove a big, charcoal-colored 41 , without white beard, and he was out and about in the August heat in Georgia.

It’s amazing to watch as they discover their world.While we were outdoors last summer enjoying the sunshine, our oldest daughter, Kaytlin, called me to the doorway. Beneath the steps was a baby red squirrel.We watched it from a distance, not wanting to disturb it or scare off its mother. But after a long wait—and looking all around our house for signs of a nest or a mother—we realized the tiny squirrel was lost.Shaking terribly, he was weak, thin, and hungry. We tried to find an expert to help, but the Inland Fisheries and Wildlife website showed that there were no wildlife experts in our area. After some quick research, we concluded that the best way to give the squirrel a fighting chance was to care for him ourselves. So a trip to the local store for milk and supplies was in order. More research taught us how much to feed him, how to estimate his age, how and when to wean (断奶) him, and that we should let him go as soon as he could survive on his own.Our daughters and I took turns in feeding “Squirt.” Kaytlin took on the most responsibility. She taught him to eat from a bottle, and she woke in the night for his feeds.To our relief, Squirt soon became healthy and strong. Within a few weeks he became more active. He would chatter (吱吱叫) for his next meal, playfully go around the girls, and lie down on them for sleep. It wasn’t long before he was weaned onto solid food and reintroduced to the wild.His first few visits to the great outdoors were funny. Just like a child, he would play in the grass some and then run back to Kaytlin for safety. Soon she had him climbing trees and finding nest material.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 in the trees, Squirt met up with a family of gray squirrels.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________One night, Squirt didn’t come back to our house and it rained hard._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________参考答案:1.C【原文】M: I picked up a cell phone here a few days ago, but it seems to be out of order.W: Terribly sorry about that.

That’s why we offer swimming lessons to children aged between 4 and 16 at affordable prices. Not all children will be at the same level, so we have classes for different ability levels and ages. The levels are as follows: Pre-school, Foundation and Development. The Foundation swimming lessons are designed for kids who are aged 4 and over. By the end of this course, they will be able to swim 10 meters unaided and know the basics of swimming movements. The Development classes are prepared for children aged 5 to 16. These lessons will cover more swimming essentials including developing techniques and basic survival and rescue skills in the water. To make swimming accessible to the whole community, we aim to involve children with disabilities in our existing lessons. Also, treat your friends to 15 off a course when you recommend them. If they join, you’ll gain a two-week course of your choice. So if you’re interested, prepare your swimwear and come.21.A 22.B 23.A【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章根据健康评级、专家的声誉以及有年幼和较大孩子的家庭的认可,对最适合家庭的游轮进行了排名,并做了详细介绍。21.细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Passengers can enjoy kid-friendly dining venues and facilities, plus visits from Disney characters like Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Pluto.(乘客可以享受适合儿童的用餐场所和设施,还可以享受米奇、米妮、高飞和布鲁托等迪士尼人物的参观。)”可知,孩子们在迪士尼游轮上可以期待和迪士尼人物见面。故选A。22.推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“Some of the line’s cruise ships feature rock climbing walls and ice rinks, while others boast zip lines, bumper cars and waterslides.(该航线的一些游轮以攀岩墙和溜冰场为特色,而其他游轮则以高空滑索、碰碰车和滑水道为特色。)”和第四段第二句“Cruise ships are equipped with water parks, basketball courts and ropes courses to entertain kids of all ages.(游轮配有水上乐园、篮球场和绳索课程,以娱乐所有年龄段的孩子。)”可知,皇家加勒比国际邮轮公司和嘉年华邮轮公司的共同之处是它们对运动爱好者很有吸引力。故选B。23.细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“Plus, children’s menus are available in all of the line’s restaurants, including specialty eateries.(此外,所有线路的餐厅都有儿童菜单,包括特色餐厅。)”可知,如果你优先考虑儿童饮食,你会选择挪威邮轮。故选A。24.A 25.C 26.D 27.C【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要描述了Dick Van Dyke的职业生涯和他对工作的态度,同时也提到了他的电视剧和电影作品。24.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When asked how important it is that he’s having fun when he’s doing it, Van Dyke replied, “My whole career has relied on that.

When Sean Connery left, the producer said, ‘Would you like to be the next Bond ’ I said, ‘Have you heard my British accent ’ That’s a true story!”(从那以后,Van Dyke几乎总是被分配扮演好人,尽管他声称自己错过了一个选择角色:“是的,我本来可以演詹姆斯·邦德的。当肖恩·康纳利离开时,制片人说:‘你想成为下一个邦德吗?’我说,‘你听到我的英国口音了吗?’这是一个真实的故事! ”)”可知,Van Dyke本有机会扮演詹姆斯·邦德的。故选D。27.主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“When asked how important it is that he’s having fun when he’s doing it, Van Dyke replied, “My whole career has relied on that. It’s such a blessing to find a way of making a living that you love. I feel so sorry for people who hate their job. I look forward to going to work every morning!”(当被问及在比赛中获得乐趣有多重要时,Van Dyke回答说:“我的整个职业生涯都依赖于此。能找到一种自己喜欢的谋生方式是一种福气。我为那些讨厌自己工作的人感到难过。我每天早上都盼望着去上班!”)”以及文章最后一段“In an interview from 2017 with his friends, Van Dyke described what it was like hitting 90: “People are more afraid of aging than they are of death these days. And I want to say that remain young in heart and there’s a lot of good living to do.”(在2017年接受朋友采访时,Van Dyke描述了90岁的感觉:“现在人们更害怕衰老,而不是死亡。我想说的是,保持年轻的心态,还有很多美好的生活要做。”)”可知,文章主要讲述了Van Dyke将自己的成功归于获得乐趣。故选C。28.B 29.C 30.B 31.A【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了《自然》杂志将ChatGPT选入“自然10强”并分析了原因。文章同时介绍ChatGPT的创造者之一伊利亚·苏茨克维尔对ChatGPT的看法。28.细节理解题。根据第一段中“On the 2023 list published, the journal included a non-human entity — ChatGPT, for the first time.(在公布的2023年名单中,该杂志首次纳入了一个非人类实体——ChatGPT)”可知,在此之前,只有人类能被选为“自然10强”。故选B项。29.主旨大意题。根据第二段中“ChatGPT and related software can help to brainstorm ideas, enhance scientific search engines and identify research gaps in the literature, says Marinka Zitnik, who works on AI for medical research at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. Models trained in similar ways on scientific data could help to build AI systems that can guide research, perhaps by designing new molecules or simulating cell behaviour, Zitnik adds.(马萨诸塞州波士顿的哈佛医学院从事人工智能医学研究的Marinka Zitnik说,ChatGPT和相关软件可以帮助集思广益,增强科学搜索引擎,并识别文献中的研究空白。Zitnik补充说,以类似的方式对科学数据进行训练的模型可以帮助建立指导研究的人工智能系统,也许可以通过设计新分子或模拟细胞行为来实现)”可知,本段主要讨论了ChatGPT和其他生成式人工智能程序如何改变科学家的工作方式,并提到了ChatGPT在指导研究和增强科学搜索引擎方面的潜在可能。由此可知,第二段介绍了ChatGPT在科学研究领域中的应用。故选C项。30.词句猜测题。前缀re-表示“重新;再”;结合常识和划线词后“debates about the limits of AI, the nature of human intelligence and how best to regulate the interaction between the two(关于人工智能的局限性、人类智能的本质以及如何最好地规范两者之间的互动的辩论)”可知,关于人工智能的这些话题的辩论并不是新事物,以前就已经有过很多相关的辩论,由此推知,ChatGPT的出现只是重新引发了相关辩论。故划线词rekindled与restarted“重新开始”意思接近。故选B项。31.推理判断题。根据第四段中“He saw this company as an opportunity to develop general artificial intelligence that could outperform humans and develop its own consciousness.(他认为这家公司是开发通用人工智能的一个机会,它可以超越人类,发展自己的意识)”和最后一段中“he was among the first to realize that the systems that scientists like his mentor, Geoffrey Hinton, had begun to develop would begin to show their actual capabilities as computing power increased.(他是最早意识到,随着计算能力的提高,像他的导师杰弗里·辛顿这样的科学家开始开发的系统将开始显示其实际能力的人之一)”可推知,Ilya Sutskever认为人工智能会超越人类,发展自己的意识,对其能力充满信心(confident);根据最后一段中“Sutskever believes that artificial intelligence’s potential is too great for models to be available to anyone who wants to use them(Sutskever认为,人工智能的潜力太大,任何想要使用它们的人都无法获得模型)”和“In recent months, he devoted his efforts toward creating a method to direct and control artificial intelligence systems that are more intelligent than humans.(最近几个月,他致力于创造一种方法来指导和控制比人类更聪明的人工智能系统)”可推知,Ilya Sutskever对人工智能的运用非常谨慎(cautious),希望创造一种方法来指导和控制比人类更聪明的人工智能。故选A项。32.A 33.C 34.B 35.D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了未来的屋顶花园很智能,它知道什么时候为干旱储存水,什么时候倾倒多余的水来防止洪水。32.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Now climate change has brought more severe weather, heavy rainfall, and even drought to the area, forcing the city of Amsterdam to consider new ways to protect itself, and that’s where Resilio comes in (现在,气候变化给该地区带来了更恶劣的天气,暴雨,甚至干旱,迫使阿姆斯特丹市考虑新的保护自己的方法,这就是Resilio的作用所在。)”可知,气候变化带来的日益严重的自然灾害促使阿姆斯特丹创建了Resilio屋顶。故选A。33.细节理解题。根据第四段中“In time of heavy rainfall, this layer collects rainwater that would otherwise flood the streets, while in time of drought its water feeds the garden on the top layer. (在大雨的时候,这一层收集雨水,否则那些雨水会淹没街道,而在干旱的时候,它的水浇灌在顶层的花园。)”可知,Resilio屋顶有双重用途。故选C。34.细节理解题。根据第五段中“The DSS networks with local weather forecasts to decide whether the valve on a particular roof should open, spilling water safely and slowly into the sewer (下水道) system, or whether it should remain closed and collect the coming rain. (DSS与当地的天气预报联网,以决定某一特定屋顶上的阀门是否应该打开,将水安全而缓慢地倾泻到下水道系统中,或者是否应该保持关闭状态,收集即将到来的雨水。)”可知,DSS联网当地天气预报,以此来决定特定屋顶的阀门的使用。故选B。35.推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine that a futuristic roof garden is so intelligent that it knows when to store water for drought conditions, and when to dump water to prevent flooding. (想象一下,未来的屋顶花园非常智能,它知道什么时候应该为干旱储存水,什么时候应该倾倒水来防止洪水。)”及第五段中“The DSS networks with local weather forecasts to decide whether the valve on a particular roof should open, spilling water safely and slowly into the sewer (下水道) system, or whether it should remain closed and collect the coming rain. (DSS与当地的天气预报联网,以决定某一特定屋顶上的阀门是否应该打开,将水安全而缓慢地倾泻到下水道系统中,或者是否应该保持关闭状态,收集即将到来的雨水。)”对Resilio屋顶的系统的描述可知,Resilio屋顶比较智能。故选D。36.A 37.C 38.G 39.F 40.D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍如何举办一场没有压力的假日排队。36.根据上文“Before we go into the specifics, a few words of general advice: You don’t have to throw the party your parents did.(在我们讨论细节之前,有几句一般性的建议:你不必像你父母那样举办派对。) ”可知言外之意这是你的派对,你应该按照自己的想法去办,故选A选项“这是你的节目。”符合题意,故选A。37.设空处为本段的主题句。根据下文“The best way to avoid being exhausted is to be prepared. Many seasoned hosts set their tables several days in advance.( 避免疲惫的最好方法就是做好准备。许多经验丰富的主人会提前几天布置好餐桌。)”可知本段主要讲述的时在办派对之前做好准备,故C选项“准备好一个精心制定的计划。”符合本段主旨,故选C。38.根据上文“ “Always pretend your event is a few days before.” Miller says.( “总是假装你的活动提前了几天。”米勒说。) ”和下文“She recommends cleaning the house, rounding up an extra dining chair and buying drinks a few days in advance.( 她建议打扫房间,准备一张额外的餐椅,并提前几天买饮料。)”可知是要把能提前做的工作先做完,因为到最后也还有要做的工作,故G选项“总有工作要到最后一刻才去做。”起到了承上启下的作用,符合题意,故选G。39.根据上文“Before you choose your menu, determine your serving style.(在你选择菜单之前,确定你的上菜方式。)”可推测下文应继续针对上菜方式给出建议,故选F选项“如果你没有一个大餐桌,自助餐是不错的选择。”紧密连接上文,符合语境,故选F。40.根据上文“The pandemic has made takeout an option not only for family dinners, but also for entertaining, because many restaurants now offer specific holiday dinner dishes to take home.(新冠肺炎疫情使外卖不仅成为家庭晚餐的一种选择,也成为娱乐的一种选择,因为许多餐馆现在都提供特定的节日晚餐菜肴带回家。)”可知可以从不同餐馆买食物,这样就可以吃到许多地方的食物,因此D选项“你可以吃到很多地方的美味食物。”符合语境,故选D。41.C 42.B 43.A 44.C 45.D 46.A 47.A 48.D 49.D 50.C 51.B 52.C 53.B 54.A

One day in the trees, Squirt met up with a family of gray squirrels. But the family was none too happy about his visit. They scolded and swatted at him. At first Squirt was so unhappy that he avoided them. And then he quickly learned some social skills. He would take some snacks to meet them. For several days he played all day in the trees surrounding our house but came down at bedtime. One night, Squirt didn’t come back to our house and it rained hard. Our girls fretted. They wanted to seek Squirt. We prevented them because it was too dangerous. But when the sun rose the next day, there was Squirt, begging for food. And that remained the pattern for weeks. The experience was entertaining and heartwarming for our family. In the wild and somewhat silly moments of raising an orphaned baby squirrel, our children learned to value and appreciate life.【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者一家一天看到一只幼小的迷路的松鼠,他们决定收养它,看着这只小松鼠从瘦弱幼小,慢慢变的健康活泼,让作者一家感觉既有趣又温暖。【详解】1. 段落续写:①由第一段首句内容“一天,在树林里,Squirt遇到了一个灰色松鼠家庭。”可知,第一段可描写Squirt遇到这一家灰松鼠的情况,Squirt如何与灰松鼠一家交往。②由第二段首句内容“一天晚上,Squirt没有回到我们家,下起了大雨。”可知,第二段可描写作者一家的担心,和最后的结果,以及作者的感悟。2. 续写线索:遇到灰松鼠——与灰松鼠一家交往——没有回家,担心它——感悟3. 词汇激活行为类①责骂:scold/blame/rebuke②拍打:swat/slap/hit③寻找:seek/find/look for/search for④阻止:prevent/put a stop to/head off情绪类①高兴的:happy/delighted②有趣的:entertaining/delightful/engrossing【点睛】[高分句型1]At first Squirt was so unhappy that he avoided them.(so...that引导的结果状语从句)[高分句型2]But when the sun rose the next day, there was Squirt, begging for food.(when引导的时间状语从句和现在分词作状语) 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 2024年高考英语第四次模拟考试-备战2024年高考英语名校模拟真题速递(浙江专用).docx 听力.mp3
