She thought her parents should realize she would do better now.At her words, a flash of uncertainty crossed her parents’ faces. Would they agree Holding her breath, she had waited for what seemed like ages. Surprisingly, Mom nodded, saying, “Okay, but please be careful, and remember to take a look at the cookbook first.”Fueled by determination, Anna raced to the kitchen. With each step, there was a sense of purpose and confidence growing within her. She had already done it with Mom a million times before. Putting the cookbook aside, she got down to baking cookies from memory, breaking eggs, dropping a cold stick of butter, adding salt and then…um…yes, mixing it well! Using a mixer was easy. She turned on the mixer at the medium speed—and whoa. Whoa. Whoa! Butter splattered (飞溅) everywhere, making the kitchen in a mess. Collecting herself, she turned back to the mixing bowl and started again. This time with softer butter.Anna placed rounded spoonfuls of mixture onto the cookie pan and put it into the oven (烤炉). Within a few minutes, a fantastic smell filled the kitchen- the smell of cookie success! She was going to silence all those doubts. No more eye-rolling from her big brother.

I was filled with excitement, eager to show them off to my friends. I had chosen pink framed glasses, thinking they would look fantastic on me.I had never worn glasses before, so selecting them felt like a fun shopping experience. I got to pick the shape I liked and even chose a pretty pink and purple colour combination.The reason behind getting the glasses was my poor eyesight. I couldn’t copy words and proper grammar from the blackboard because I sat at the back of the class, and everything was too vague for me to see. My friend would read aloud every phrase to me so that I could write them down, like a parrot.Wearing those glasses was like stepping into a 3D cinematic world. I could see everything as clearly and each tiny detail felt like a delightful surprise.However, on the day I wore my glasses to school, everyone’s reaction to my transformation was beyond my expectation. All the boys laughed and even teased me. Some kind-hearted girls forced a smile and told me that my glasses looked good on me, but I knew they didn’t. They all lied.Though I needed those glasses more than I wanted them, yet I started to dislike my new glasses in the following week. A month passed, my classmates still weren’t used to seeing me in glasses and I took them off during the lunch break or when the classes were dismissed. However, little did I know that my decision to wear them would change the lives of many of my friends.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 Monday, one of my friends looked at me with curiosity.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________A week later, I was shocked to see the same friend return to school with a pair of glasses.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________2024届广东省揭阳市高三下学期二模考试英语试题阅读下面材料，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。It was Mr. Morgan’s first day as a new history teacher.

Even with all distractions removed, very often you still find yourself eating faster than you should. (花足够的时间吃完你的饭。即使排除了所有的干扰，你仍然经常发现自己吃得比你应该吃的快。)”以及后文“It takes about that time for your body to get the signal to the brain that you are full. (大约需要这段时间，你的身体才会向大脑发出你吃饱了的信号。)”可知，本句主要针对吃饭花费的时间提出建议。故E选项“当你坐下来吃饭时，至少花20分钟这样做。”符合语境，故选E。【18题详解】根据本段内容“You might wonder how to spend 20 whole minutes eating a sandwich. One way to slowdown is to engage your senses and think through all the details about your meal. Ask yourself: What’s on my plate How hungry am I today Is it too salty Notice the smell, the taste and whatever other senses that arise as you eat. (你可能想知道如何花整整20分钟吃一个三明治。放慢速度的一种方法是调动你的感官，仔细考虑你吃饭的所有细节。问问你自己：我的盘子里有什么？我今天有多饿？是不是太咸了？注意你吃东西时产生的气味、味道和其他感觉。)”可知，后文提到注意你吃东西时产生的气味、味道和其他感觉，即建议注意食物的细节。故A选项“注意食物的所有细节。”符合语境，故选A。【19题详解】根据上文“Put a small amount of snack food, like potato chips, in a separate bowl to help avoid mindless munching.

Whatever you do, and no matter how hard you try, there will always be certain people who dislike you. There are often times you can overlook them and go on with your life. Sometimes, however, a person’s negative feelings for you might affect your grades or your ability to meet and get along with other people.(总是让每个人都满意是很难的。无论你做什么，无论你多么努力，总会有一些人不喜欢你。很多时候你可以忽略它们，继续你的生活。然而，有时候，一个人对你的负面情绪可能会影响你的成绩或你与他人相处的能力)”结合后文主要介绍了一些可以帮助你应对别人对你的负面情绪的方法。由此可知，D选项“在这些情况下，也许是时候解决这个问题了”能够承上启下，符合语境，故选D。【17题详解】根据后文“That means instead of saying “Why don’t you like me ”, say something like “I feel like there is some tension between us. Is there anything I have done or anything I can do to help ”(这意味着不要说“你为什么不喜欢我？”，你可以这样说:“我觉得我们之间有些紧张。我做了什么或者我能帮上什么忙吗？”)”可知，后文主要以“I”作为主语来替代“You”，故G选项“试着用“I-phrases”来表达你的想法，这些短语集中在你的感受上”符合语境，故选G。【18题详解】根据后文“If you’ve done something to hurt or offend someone and that is the reason why the person dislikes you, the best course of action is to try to make it right. Clearly say the words, “I’m sorry. ” Be sure not to say “I’m sorry you were offended. ” or “I’m sorry you felt that way. ” or anything else that places the blame on the other person for misinterpreting your intentions.(如果你做了一些伤害或冒犯别人的事情，而这正是那个人不喜欢你的原因，那么最好的做法就是努力纠正它。清楚地说：“对不起。”一定不要说“很抱歉冒犯了你”。或者“我很抱歉你那样想。”或者其他任何将责任归咎于他人误解你的意图的话语)”可知，本段主要介绍了道歉和纠正错误。由此可知，B选项“道歉并纠正错误”适合作本段标题，符合语境，故选B。【19题详解】根据上文“Be sure not to say “I’m sorry you were offended. ” or “I’m sorry you felt that way. ” or anything else that places the blame on the other person for misinterpreting your intentions.(一定不要说“很抱歉冒犯了你”。或者“我很抱歉你那样想。”或者其他任何将责任归咎于他人误解你的意图的话语)”可知，上文提到了不要说某种话。由此可知，本句是在说明正确的处理方式。故E选项“相反，要谦虚，承认你伤害了别人的事实”符合语境，故选E。【20题详解】根据后文“Importantly, you have to choose not to allow the person who dislikes you to influence you or get you down.

F 17. D 18. C 19. B 20. G【解析】【导语】本文是说明文。介绍了几种帮助你变得更健康的日常习惯。【16题详解】根据前文“Many of us hope to make changes for the better for the new year, and health goals tend to be at the top of that list. Sometimes New Year’s wishes require some sacrifices.(我们中的许多人都希望在新的一年里做出更好的改变，而健康目标往往是最重要的。有时新年愿望需要一些牺牲)”以及后文“Below are some achievable daily habits that keep your overall health.(以下是一些可以实现的日常习惯，可以保持你的整体健康)”可知，前文讲述新年愿望需要一些牺牲，后文开始介绍一些可以实现的日常习惯，前后为转折关系，所以空处应和前文转折，F项“However, we don’t have to give up too much to realize them.(然而，我们不需要放弃太多来实现它们)”符合文意，和前文构成转折关系，并引出下文。故选F项。【17题详解】根据前文“Your body needs time not only to rest and recharge, but also to do important work like learning new things. Experts suggest teenagers should get at least eight hours sleep each day. If this is a challenge for you, turn to your circadian rhythm, which tells you the right time to sleep and wake up.(你的身体不仅需要时间休息和充电，还需要时间做一些重要的工作，比如学习新事物。专家建议青少年每天至少要保证8小时的睡眠。如果这对你来说是一个挑战，求助于你的昼夜节律，它会告诉你正确的睡觉和起床时间)”可知，本文的主题是，要成好好休息的习惯，如果有困难可以求助于你的昼夜节律，所以D项“Then how do you use your body clock for better sleep (那么如何利用生物钟来获得更好的睡眠呢 )”符合本段主题，且body clock和circadian rhythm为同义词，后文“Just go to bed and get up at the same time every day.(每天在同一时间睡觉和起床)”是对本句的回答。故选D项。【18题详解】根据前文“In fact, studies have found that screen addiction has a negative influence on our health.(事实上，研究发现，屏幕成瘾对我们的健康有负面影响)”以及后文“Keeping away from screen can improve your sleep and reduce depression and anxiety. Thus, remember to spare time each day when you’re screen-free.(远离屏幕可以改善你的睡眠，减少抑郁和焦虑。因此，记得每天在远离屏幕的时候抽出时间)”可知，前文讲述屏幕成瘾对我们的健康有负面影响，后文讲述远离屏幕有益，所以前后为转折关系，所以C项“Fortunately, doing the opposite is beneficial.(幸运的是，相反的做法是有益的)”起到过渡作用，承接前后文。故选C项。【19题详解】分析设空，为本段小标题，根据后文“Your healthy habits can also be fun and rewarding. What have you always wanted to do Your answer to that question might point you toward a new hobby to explore in 2024.(你的健康习惯也可以是有趣和有益的。你一直想做什么 你对这个问题的回答可能会让你在2024年探索一个新的爱好)”可知，本段讲述是培养一个新的爱好，所以B项“Take on a new hobby.(培养新的爱好)”为本段小标题。故选B项。【20题详解】空处位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“Your healthy habits can also be fun and rewarding. What have you always wanted to do Your answer to that question might point you toward a new hobby to explore in 2024. And getting into it can help you reduce stress and boost mental well-being. Plus, some hobbies can get you moving, boosting your physical and mental health.(你的健康习惯也可以是有趣和有益的。你一直想做什么 你对这个问题的回答可能会让你在2024年探索一个新的爱好。投入其中可以帮助你减轻压力，促进心理健康。此外，一些爱好可以让你动起来，促进你的身心健康)”可知，本段讲述培养一个新的爱好，所以G项“Maybe playing basketball or doing yoga will be a good choice.(也许打篮球或做瑜伽会是一个不错的选择)”是对前文的具体举例，符合文意。故选G项。2024届广东省揭阳市高三下学期二模考试英语试题36—40 CGEBD广东省部分市2023-2024学年高三下学期二模英语统考试题汇编：完形填空2024届广东省梅州市高三年级总复习质检（二模）英语试题阅读下面短文，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。Twenty years ago, I was months into my first job at a start-up independent publishing company in New York.One afternoon, I ____21____ a train with a load of hot-off-the-press catalogues (目录薄) our first to list every one of our titles.

It has swings, slides, and places for children to climb and crawl. But the playground is not just a place for fun. It is also a place where students can learn, grow and gain independence. Everything — from the kind of surface it sits on, to the color of its sitting areas, to the placement of the surrounding fence — is specifically designed for kids with autism (自闭症).Mark Rapaport is the managing director of autism services at the Transformation Academy. He said the school accepts students aged 5 to 21 with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and are lower-functioning.Rapaport said the goal of Transformation Academy is to make the students as independent as possible in an effort to help them prepare for adult life. The school aims to provide help with developing communication and social skills, as well as practical abilities like cleaning or cooking.The playground designed by Maryland company Sparks@Play, using structures manufactured by Landscape Structures, Inc. took a month to develop, said Dan Hack. He works for Sparks@Play and helped lead the playground’s design. Hack said he and others spent weeks getting to know the students and understanding their needs before any building was started. The design process involved physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists. The huge $500,000 project was funded with support from the state of Maryland and the nonprofit Orokawa Foundation.Parts of the playground that seem small are very important for children with autism and other disabilities. The surrounding fence extends into a wooded area to make it seem more open. And the ground under the play areas is made of soft but solid materials to support students using wheelchairs or crutches. The benches on the outside of the playground look simple from far away, but are “one of our most inclusive sensory” elements, Hack said. They have many different colors that bring about feelings of calm and curiosity. They are also made with smooth material that can be felt and moved. The academy’s Rapaport said if a child starts to feel uneasy, they can sit down and feel the bench, which can help them relax.4. Why is the playground in Baltimore designed with special materials A To make it superior to other playgrounds. B. To better serve children with autism.C. To improve the quality of the playground. D. To make it easier for kids to climb and crawl.5. What can we learn from the playground project A. It took a month to complete the project. B. The design process is simple and easy.C.

Which best describes the playground in Baltimore A. Advanced. B. Environmental-friendly. C. Functional. D. Convenient.CNew findings suggest that when it-comes to learning, the snake may be quite a bit like humans. David Holtzman, a scientist at the University of Rochester, has found that snakes have a much greater capacity for learning than earlier studies had indicated.Holtzman’s study challenged 24 snakes to escape from a black plastic container the size of a child’s pool. Cards mounted on the container’s walls and tape on its floor provided the snakes with visual and touchable signals to find their goal: holes in the container’s bottom that offer a dark, comfortable spot to hide.Simply falling into a hole isn’t the only proof that the snakes are learning something, though. “Speed to find that goal is one of the measures which shows they’re learning,” Holtzman says. “On average, they take over 700 seconds to find the correct hole on the first day of training, and then go down to about 400 seconds by the fourth day of training. Some are actually very fast and find it in less than 30 seconds.”Studies dating back to the 1950s interpreted snakes’ awkwardness with mazes(迷宫)as a poor reflection on their intelligence. “Early attempts to study snake intelligence were problematic because the studies used mazes as testing arenas(场地)-as though snakes might be expected to run through mazes in the same way mice run through mazes,” says Peter Kareiva, a professor of zoology. “Snakes do not encounter anything like mazes in nature, and they do not learn how to run mazes in laboratory conditions.”Holtzman also found a few age-based differences in the signals the snakes use. Young snakes appear to be more adaptable and resourceful, using a variety of clues to find their way to the exit.But their elders seem to rely much more heavily on visual clues. “Actually, one of the amazing findings from our studies is that snakes do use vision in locating places,” says Holtzman. “They don’t just rely on the chemical clues picked up by sticking their tongues out, as many snake biologists assume.”8. What is the function of the cards and tape A. To direct the snakes to the exits.B. To protect the snakes from bright lights.C. To cover the holes at the container’s bottom.D. To make the container a comfortable spot to stay.9. What do the data in paragraph 3 show about the snakes according to Holtzman A. They are skillful escapers. B. They are good learners.C. They communicate with each other. D. They adapt to environments quickly.10. What was the problem with early attempts to study snake intelligence A. They chose the wrong testing arenas.B. They failed to do tests in laboratory conditions.C. They referred to studies dating back to the 1950s.D. They compared snakes with a different kind of animal.11. What astonishes Holtzman about snakes A. They rely on sight to find their way.B. They leave chemical clues everywhere.C. The young beat their elders in many ways.D. Their tongues are unable to recognize chemical clues.DResearch led by ecologist Bart Hoekstra of the University of Amsterdam shows that birds are affected by the mass use of fireworks on New Year’s Eve up to a distance of 10 km (6 miles) away.With data from weather radars and bird counts an international team of researchers revealed how many birds take off immediately after the start of the fireworks, at what distance from fireworks this occurs and which species groups mainly react. “Birds take off as a result of an acute flight response due to sudden noise and light. We already knew that many water birds react strongly, but now we also see the effect on other birds throughout the Netherlands, ”says ecologist Bart Hoekstra of the University of Amsterdam. In the scientific journal Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, the researchers therefore argue for large fireworks-free zones.Last year, other researchers at IBED discovered that geese are so affected by fireworks that they spend an average of 10% longer looking for food than normal during at least the next 11 days. They apparently need that time to restore their energy to their former condition, after fleeing from the fireworks.Because 62% of all birds in the Netherlands live within a radius of 2. 5 km of inhabited areas, the consequences of fireworks are high for all birds throughout the country. “Flying requires a lot of energy, so ideally birds should be disturbed as little as possible during the cold winter months. Measures to ensure this are especially important in open areas such as grasslands, where many larger birds spend the winter. The effects of fireworks on birds are less pronounced near forests and semi-open habitats. In addition, smaller birds such as tits and finches live there, which are less likely to fly away from disturbance.”The authors argue for fireworks-free zones in areas where large birds live. Hoekstra: “These buffer zones could be smaller in areas where light and sound travel less far, such as near forests. Furthermore, fireworks should mainly be lit at central locations in built-up areas, as far away from birds as possible. It would be best for birds if we moved towards light shows without sound, such as drone shows or decorative fireworks without very loud bangs.”12. What can we learn about the research A. It’s the first one about fireworks’ effects on birds.B. It’s conducted by collecting data from weather radars.C. It shows the extent of the fireworks’ influence on birds.D. It keeps track of birds throughout Netherlands and beyond.13. Why did geese spend more time looking for food A. To make up for the lost energy. B. To store more food in case.C. To find a new source of energy. D. To find a place without fireworks.14. What does the underlined word “pronounced” in Para. 4 mean A. Predictable. B. Noticeable.C. Admirable. D. Avoidable.15. What can be the best title for the passage A. Panic in the air B. Fireworks-free zonesC. Fireworks in the world D.

In his own backyard, the eight water features which Robert Perkins dug into the ground are now a shelter for birds, frogs, beavers (河狸) and other animals in the middle of suburban development. But for Perkins, creating habitat for wildlife is not only about doing his part to help the environment. It’s a labor of love for a woman he met when he was 16 years old.Perkins met Rhonda in 1974 and the two of them hit it off. They both loved animals, and she always wished to have a place where they could live in harmony with the land. Rhonda, whom Perkins stayed with all his life, passed away in 2006. Perkins resolved to build a wonderland where her spirit could stay in peace.Ignoring planning departments and neighbors alike, Perkins began digging large holes for water to flow. Over the course of nine years his property went from being a neighborly headache to a perfect home for wildlife.Perkins says he won’t take all the credit for the wetland he built. When Perkins started creating the wildlife habitat in the early 2000s, a family of beavers got wind of it soon and claimed the land. “When we built our subdivisions, we cleared all the trees, dried the hills, drove all the water down to the lakes... In turn, the beavers helped dam (筑坝) and purify the water.”Wetland habitats not only attract wildlife, but probably offer the most complete package of ecosystem services, including preventing pollution, enriching the soil, and promoting the well-being of wildlife species.Perkins says he doesn’t need to wonder what Rhonda might think of the place; he feels her presence whenever he walks alone among the trees, the grass, and the ponds, looking at birds or beavers, and listening to the songbirds and frogs. Perkins hopes his project will one day become an educational place that local people can visit to learn about the importance of wetlands.4. Why did Perkins build the water features A. To fulfill his childhood dream. B. To show his love for his wife.C. To preserve endangered wildlife. D. To adapt to suburban development.5. Which best describes Perkins’ wetland building process A. Effortless but creative. B. Discouraging but efficient.C. Painful but influential. D. Demanding but rewarding.6. What can we infer about building the wetland from Perkins’ words A. Perkins had a strategic plan for it. B. Human’s role in it was overvalued.C. Nature itself also played a part in it. D. Beavers were invited to help with it.7. What is Perkins’s expectation of the wetland A. To help spread his story. B. To be a recreational spot.C. To bring economic value. D. To serve as an inspiration.CInitial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite ” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored ”To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked.Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”.This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together.There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well.8. Why did the author carry out 10 years of research A. To dismiss national concerns. B. To check out a potential bias.C To enhance human communication. D. To develop harmonious relationships.9. What is one effect of people’s liking gap A. Fewer chances of new projects. B. Underestimation of their ability.C. Bad relationships with people around. D. Low willingness to interact with others.10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph A. Restate opinions. B. Deliver warnings. C. Give suggestions. D. Make a summary.11. Which might be the best title for the text A. Liking Gap May Influence Work PerformancesB. First Impressions Rely On Initial ConversationsC. People Probably Like You More Than You ThinkD. How People Like You Matters Less Than You AssumeDBuilding artificial intelligences that sleep and dream can lead to more dependable models, according to researchers who aim to mimic (模仿) the behavior of the human brain.Concetto Spampinato and his research members at the University of Catania, Italy, were looking for ways to avoid a phenomenon known as “disastrous forgetting”, where an AI model trained to do a new task loses the ability to carry out jobs it previously excelled at. For instance, a model trained to identify animals could learn to spot different fish species, but then might lose its ability to recognize birds. They developed a method of training AI called Wake-Sleep Consolidated Learning (WSCL), which mimics the way that our brains reorganize short-term memories of daily learning when we are asleep.Besides the usual training for the “awake” phase, models using WSCL are programmed to have periods of “sleep”, where they analyze awake data from earlier lessons. This is similar to human spotting connections and patterns while sleeping.WSCL also has a period of “dreaming”, which involves novel data made from combining previous concepts. This helps to integrate previous paths of digital “neurons (神经元)”, freeing up space for future concepts. It also prepares unused neurons with patterns that will help them pick up new lessons more easily.The researchers tested three AI models using a traditional training method, followed by WSCL training. Then they compared performances for image identification. The sleep-trained models were 2 to 12 percent more likely to correctly identify the contents of an image. They also measured an increase in how much old knowledge a model uses to learn a new task.Despite the results, Andrew Rogoyski at the University of Surrey, UK, says using the human brain as a blueprint isn’t necessarily the best way to boost AI performance. Instead, he suggests mimicking dolphins, which can “sleep” with one part of the brain while another part remains active. After all, an AI that requires hours of sleep isn’t ideal for commercial applications.12. WSCL was developed to help improve AI’s ______.A. reliability B. creativity C. security D. popularity13. What do models using WSCL do during the “sleeping” periods A. Generate new data. B. Process previous data.C. Receive data for later analysis. D. Save data for the “awake” phase.14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about A. The application of WSCL. B. The benefits of AI research.C. The findings of the research. D. The underlying logic of WSCL.15. Which best describes Andrew’s attitude towards the sleep-trained models A. Cautious. B. Prejudiced. C. Pessimistic. D. Unconcerned.2024届广东省湛江市高三下学期二模考试英语试题阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。AHere are some things that you can buy as gifts for your friends who are birdwatchers.A window-mounted bird feederOne way to guarantee a close-up look at the birds in your garden is to bring them all the way to the house. This bird feeder is solidly built with strong suction (吸) cups that you can tie to your windows, giving you a good view of your winged visitors.A pair of binocularsBinoculars are a birdwatcher’s best friend! They work like two small telescopes joined together, allowing you to use both eyes to see distant birds as if they were right in front of you. They’re perfect for spotting feathered friends in the wild, whether the birds are high up in the trees or soaring across the sky. When you peer through them, you get a view that makes every little detail of the birds—their colors, beaks, and even the texture of their feathers.The Robin: A Biography by Stephen MossThis beautifully illustrated book draws readers into the mysterious world of Britain’s favourite bird, the red robin—a familiar sight in all winter gardens, but as naturalist Stephen Moss demonstrates, one we hardly bining convincing storytelling with biological fact, Moss guides us through a year in the life of the robin, from the moment it hatches from its egg to its all too timely mortality (死亡) — the robin tends to live a mere 13 months, adding to its precious quality.A reusable thermal bottleEvery good birding expedition needs a bottle of steaming hot tea. A reusable bottle decorated with lifelike drawings of classic British birds combines a natural aesthetic (美感)with practicality. It can keep not only hot drinks but also cold drinks.1. What do we know about binoculars A. They can attract birds to your house. B. They show images in black and white.C. They can provide detailed views of birdwatching. D. They’re too heavy to carry for birdwatchers.2. What does The Robin: A Biography tell us about A. The birth of a bird. B. The death of a bird.C. The quantity of a bird. D. The lifetime of a bird.3. Which gift may attract birds to one’s house A. A window-mounted bird feeder. B. A pair of binoculars.C. The Robin: A Biography. D. A reusable thermal bottleBLexi is just a little girl from Canada who found herself in a heart-stopping situation. It started off as a normal car trip. Angela Shymanski, Lexi’s mom, was at the wheel, navigating the tricky roads of the Rockies with her daughter Lexi and her baby Peter in the car. An unexpected animal ran into the road. Angela swerved (突然转向) to avoid the animal. Unfortunately, their car was off the road, falling down a steep embankment (路堤).The crash was nothing short of terrifying. Angela ended up with a broken back. She was unconscious, and unable to help her babies. Meanwhile, baby Peter’s cries echoed in the chaos. But Lexi, only five years old, didn’t freeze. Instead, she showed courage that would leave many grown-ups in awe.She quickly jumped into action. The little girl, without even shoes on her feet, wrestled free from her seatbelt and climbed the 40-foot embankment. Once she reached the top, Lexi did everything she could to flag down a passing car in order to get help for her mom and brother.Lexi’s insistence finally paid off. A car stopped, and the people inside didn’t hesitate to help her call for emergency services. When the paramedics (护理人员) arrived, they found Angela in a severe state, and her heart had stopped. Thankfully, they managed to bring her back.Lexi’s dad, reflecting on the incident, couldn’t help but be amazed by his daughter’s bravery. He stressed how important it is for kids to be prepared for emergencies, shocked at how Lexi remembered and acted on what she had been taught. It’s a powerful reminder of what kids can do when push comes to shove.And Lexi’s heroism didn’t go unnoticed. She was awarded a Bronze Medal for Bravery by the police. But for the Shymanskis, the real prize was being back in each other’s arms, safe and sound.4. What caused the accident A. The tough road. B. The children’s noise.C. A car that suddenly swerved. D. An animal appearing suddenly.5. What was Lexi’s first move after the accident A. Putting on her shoes. B. Managing to get out of the car.C. Flagging down a passing car. D. Scaling the 40-foot embankment.6. What can we learn about Lexi from paragraph 5 A. Her heroic action deserved recognition. B. Her dad knew her daughter well enough.C. She had learned how to deal with emergencies. D. It was important for her to face some emergencies.7. Which of the following can best describe Lexi A. Brave and honest. B. Calm and courageous.C. Thoughtful but stubborn. D. Caring but naughty.CA recent study reveals that flat-faced dogs, such as French bulldogs, have difficulty sleeping because of an unusual feature: their head shape. French bulldogs specifically suffer from increased daytime sleepiness, probably due to not getting enough night-time sleep.With their big eyes staring right back at the owner, and wrinkles rolled over their noses, French bulldogs have shot up in popularity in recent years. But their distinct features and small size come with a number of health issues.The researchers studied the sleep patterns of 92 dogs accompanied by their owners. They found that compared with other dogs, the flat-faced dogs experience a longer period of rapid eye movement (REM), regarded as the stage of sleep with most vivid dreams where the brain is active while the body remains still. Researchers said this was similar to the way babies sleep, suggesting that dogs, like French bulldogs, keep up the sleep patterns of puppyhood. Their night-time sleep is shorter and flat-faced dogs are also more likely to snoring (打鼾). “Sleep deprivation is increasingly recognized as a major cause of suffering in dogs with extreme brachycephaly (短头畸形),” said Dan O’Neill, an associate professor from the University of London.The researchers employed an electroencephalogram (脑电图) throughout the dogs’ sleep. They looked particularly at sleep spindles (睡眠纺锤波). They found that dogs with brachycephaly had an increase in sleep spindles, which in dogs has been associated with poorer learning when it comes to training.A researcher said, “We know that some of these dogs will sleep with a ball in their mouth, and people think it’s cute, but they’re actually doing it in order to keep their airways open.” O’Neill agreed, “Many owners find this phenomenon very funny and post videos online showing how comical their dogs are as they sleep with a toy in their mouth or with their neck extended or repeatedly waking up to breathe during sleep.”8. What may lend to flat-faced dogs increased daytime sleepiness A. Their tendency to sleep with owners.B. Their preference for daytime napping.C. Their shorter night-time sleep due to the head shape.D. Their habit of sleeping in uncomfortable positions.9. What do we say about flat-laced dogs from paragraph 3 A. They differ from human beings in REM.B. They require less sleep than other species.C. They’re less likely to suffer sleep disturbances.D They maintain puppy-like sleep patterns as adults.10. What does the increase in sleep spindles in flat-laced dogs imply A. They have a stronger memory during sleep.B. They have a strong desire to sleep during the night.C. They are more likely to succeed in hard training.D. They may face challenges in learning during training.11. Why do some flat-faced dogs sleep with a toy in their mouths A. They want to have pleasant dreams. B. It prevents them from snoring loudly.C. It helps them maintain an open airway. D. They enjoy playing with toys while sleeping.DResearchers have developed a robotic sensor that combines artificial intelligence techniques to read Braille (盲文) at speeds roughly double that of most human readers. The research team, from the University of Cambridge, used machine learning algorithms (算法) to teach a robotic sensor to quickly slide over lines of Braille text.The robotic sensor the researchers used has a camera in its “fingertip”, and reads by using a combination of the information from the camera and the sensors. “This is a hard problem for roboticists as there’s a lot of image processing that needs to be done to remove motion blur (模糊), which is time and energy-consuming,” said Parth Potdar from Cambridge’s Department of Engineering.“There are existing robotic Braille readers, but they only read one letter at a time, which is not how humans read, ” said Potdar. “Existing robotic Braille readers work in a static way: They touch one letter pattern, read it, pull up from the surface, move over, lower onto the next letter pattern, and so on. We want something that’s more realistic and far more efficient. ”The team developed machine learning algorithms so the robotic reader would be able to “deblur” the images before the sensor attempted to recognise the letters. They trained the algorithms on a set of sharp images of Braille with fake blur applied. After the algorithms had learned to deblur the letters, they used a computer vision model to detect and classify each character.Once the algorithms were incorporated, the researchers tested their render by sliding it quickly along rows of Braille characters. The robotic Braille render could read 315 words per minute with 87% accuracy, which is twice as fast and about as accurate as n human Braille reader.“Braille reading speed is a great way to measure the dynamic performance of tactile(能触知的)sensing systems, so our findings could be applicable beyond Braille, for applications like detecting surface textures or slippage in robotic manipulation,” said Potdar.In the future, the researchers are hoping to scale the technology to the size of a humanoid hand.12. What is difficult for roboticists to deal with in the reading process A. Ridding of motion blur. B. Teaching a robot to learn.C. Processing robotic sensors. D. Fixing a camera on the fingertip.13. What does the underlined word “static” in paragraph 3 mean A. Still. B. Fast. C. Clever. D. Lazy.14. What did Potdar want to express in paragraph 6 A. The good performance of the robot sensor.B. The promising future of their research results.C. The factors in making the tactile sensing systems.D The way to ensure the accuracy of the technology.15. Which can be the best title for the text A. Technology to be scaled to the size of a humanoid handB. Robots trained to read Braille at twice the speed of humansC. A great way to measure the performance of sensing systemsD.

Here’s a look at how the locals celebrate Christmas through cuisine in their countries, which will give you a glimpse of the celebrations.EnglandThe real festivities start on Christmas morning with champagne and smoked salmon. After the King’s or Queen’s annual Christmas speech, it’s time for the main meal, typically including a turkey or roast beef accompanied by various side dishes.FranceThe French celebrate their Christmas Eve with a lavish meal, with seafood served first. The main course usually consists of a rooster that’s renowned for its tenderness. Fine red wine from Burgundy can’t be missed of course.ItalySimilar to France, Italians celebrate Christmas on the eve. The locals typically attend midnight Mass and then indulge in a lavish meal before heading to church. For the main course, northern Italians often have stuffed turkey, while those in seaside areas may feast on a large baked sea bass accompanied by roasted potatoes and vegetables.GreeceAfter attending an early morning holy communion in church on Christmas, Greeks go home for an all-day eating gathering. Families gather around the fireplace, feasting on a special wheat bread only made at Christmas. Later, the main course may include roast chicken stuffed with chestnuts.1. What activity distinguishes England in Christmas celebration A. The seafood-themed dinner. B. The yearly Royal address.C. The religious ceremony. D. The main course featuring turkey.2. To experience the religious atmosphere, you’d better spend Christmas in ________.A. France and Italy. B. England and France.C. England and Greece. D. Italy and Greece.3. From which column of the magazine is the passage probably from A. Religion and culture. B. Diet and health.C. Festival and tradition. D. Sports and fitness.BFor nearly two decades, a thin, sun-burnt postal worker could frequently be seen carrying packages along a dangerous mountain trail in the Taihang Mountains.The 10-kilometer-long route, which is between 20 centimeters and 1 meter wide, is known as the “cat road” by locals, meaning that it is so dangerous that only cats could walk on it. Whereas, Zhao Yuefang, a postal worker in Ewu township in Huguan county, Shanxi province, had to walk the route every day to deliver mail.Every day at the crack of dawn, he would start his journey along the “cat road”. From picking up the day’s post to delivering it to villagers and returning along the same route, it took Zhao four days. During rainy and snowy seasons, the mountain road, part of which hugs the cliffs, would become slippery and dangerous. One day in the winter of 2003, the “cat road” was covered in thick snow and he slipped off the trail. Fortunately, he was able to stop his sharp descent by grabbing a tree branch and slowly managed to climb to safety.By 2012, Zhao had walked more than 300,000 km and delivered over 800,000 pieces of mail. Born and raised in the deep mountains, Zhao truly understands the significance of mail deliveries to villagers. “They depend on the mail to keep in touch with the outside world,” he said. “Their sheer joy written on their face while receiving any post struck me,” he added.In 2012, a 67-km-long tourist highway was built and gone were those days when Zhao risked his life to walk on the “cat road”. But Zhao was even busier than before. “The number of packages I handle daily now exceeds the number I used to deal with in the past,” said Zhao, adding that villagers are turning to online shopping and ordering more and more goods by post.4. Why is the mountain trail referred to as “cat road” A. It’s shaped like a cat. B. It’s intended for cats.C. It is too narrow and risky. D. It rains cats and dogs there.5. What does the word “descent” in paragraph 3 mean A. Fall. B. Pain.C. Turn. D. Landing.6. According to the passage, which words can best describe Zhao A. Persistent and dedicated. B. Diligent and ambitious.C. Considerate and confident. D. Courageous and generous.7. What has always motivated Zhao’s enthusiasm for his job A. The villagers’ respect for him.B. His being born and raised there.C. Today’s huge number of the packages.D. The value of the deliveries to the locals.CIs life a story or a game Answers may vary from one to another. Over the course of life, we find things to love and commit to — a job, a partner or a community. At times, we struggle to learn from our misfortunes to grow in wisdom, kindness and grace.Will Storr, a writer whose work I admire, says this story version of life is a misunderstanding. In his book The Status Game, he argues that human beings are deeply driven by status. Rather than about being liked or accepted, he writes, it’s about being better than others. “When people are obedient to us, offer respect, admiration or praise, that’s status. It feels good.”Life is a series of games, he adds. There’s the high school game of competing to be the popular kid. The lawyer game to make partner. The finance game to make the most money. The academic game for fame. The sports game to show that our team is the best. Even when we are trying to do good, Storr claims, we’re playing the “virtue game” to show we are morally superior to others.I think Storr is in danger of becoming one of those guys who ignore the noble desires of the human heart and the caring element in every friendship and family. The status-mad world that Storr describes is so loveless. In fact, gaming as a way of life is immature. Maturity means rising above the shallow desire — for status — that doesn’t really nourish us. It’s about cultivating the higher desires: the love of truth and learning; the inner pleasure the craftsman gets in his work, which is not about popularity, and the desire for a good and meaningful life that inspires people to practise daily acts of generosity.How do people gradually learn to cultivate these higher motivations To answer that, I’d have to tell you a story.8. What lies in the core of Will Storr’s opinion about life A. The pride in one’s virtue. B. The pursuit of superiority.C. The desire for acceptance. D. The motivation by wealth.9. What can be viewed as higher motivations in the text A. Love and inspiration. B. Maturity and desire.C Commitment and kindness. D. Friendship and popularity.10. What’s the main purpose of the passage A. To correct an attitude. B. To compare two values.C. To explain two arguments. D. To criticize a viewpoint.11. What story do you think the author will tell next A. A king’s-comeback story. B. A rags-to-riches story.C. A Yuan Longping-style story. D. An overnight-success story.DWould a person born blind, who has learned to distinguish objects by touch, be able to recognize them purely by sight if he regained the ability to see The question, known as Molyneux’s problem, is about whether the human mind has a built-in concept of shapes that is so inborn that a blind person could immediately recognize an object with restored vision. Alternatively, the concepts of shapes are not inborn but have to be learned by exploring an object through sight, touch and other senses.After their attempt to test it in blind children failed, Lars Chittka of Queen Mary University of London and his team carried out another experiment on bumblebees. To test whether bumblebees can form an internal representation of objects, they first trained the insects to distinguish globes from cubes using a sugar reward. The bees were first trained in the light, where they could see but not touch the objects. Then they were tested in the dark, where they could touch but not see the items. The researchers found that the insects spent more time in contact with the shape they had been trained to associate with the sugar reward, even though they had to rely on touch rather than sight to distinguish the objects.The researchers also did the opposite test with untrained bumblebees, first teaching them with rewards in the dark and then testing them in the light. Again, the bees were able to recognize the shape associated with the sugar reward, though they had to rely on sight rather than touch in the test. In short, bees have solved Molyneux’s problem because the fact suggests that they can picture object features and access them through sight or touch.However, some experts express their warning s against the result. Jonathan Birch, a philosopher of science, cautions that the bees may have had prior experience associating visual and tactile (触觉) information about straight edges and curved surfaces in their nests.12. What is Molyneux’s problem about A. Whether mankind’s sense of touch outweighs sight.B. Whether mankind’s idea of shape is inborn or learned.C. Whether blind people can identify the shape of an item.D. Whether the blind can regain their sense of touch after recovery.13. How did Lors Chittka and his colleagues try to figure out Molyneux’s problem A. By experimentation on blind children.B. By conducting controlled experiments.C. By rewarding bumblebees with sugar.D. By observing bumblebees in their nests.14. What is Jonathan Birch’s attitude towards the conclusion of the bee experiments A. Skeptical. B. Supportive.C. Dismissive. D. Ambiguous.15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage A. Scientists Found Senses MatterB. Visual-Tactile Puzzle Has Been SolvedC. Experiments Will Help the Blind Regain SightD Bumblebees May Help Solve Molyneux’s Problem2024届广东省揭阳市高三下学期二模考试英语试题阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项.AAs the second largest city of the Republic of Korea, Busan draws global attention.

Her art covers village life in Ansai, a rural district in Shaanxi Province.Ms. Yu came to paper cutting in the late 1970s as naturally as she breathed the earthy air. “We were very poor, and when it was time to celebrate the New Year, we all put paper-cuts on the windows to decorate our houses,” she says, recalling the holiday at her childhood home. Ms. Yu and others are working to keep the folk art alive, even as it evolves away from its roots as adornment for farmhouses.The art originated in China in the centuries after paper was invented in A. D. 105. Full of ausp c ous（吉利的）symbols from daily life, the decorations represented good weather, many offspring, long life, wealth, and happiness.Using newspaper, Ms. Yu first practiced cutting the image of a Chinese national flag that she saw in a school textbook. She cut it 100 times before she was satisfied. Then her aunt took over, introducing her to increasingly complicated tradit onal themes.Ms. Yu was later invited to train in the Ansai’s Cultural Center. After years of training, Ms. Yu became a master in her own right, w nning one award after another. Her works are on display n museums. But she’s humble about her achievements. “I was, and still am, a farmer,” she says with a smile.Hoping to carry on and grow the folk art, Ms. Yu volunteers to teach at free community training sessions. Paper cutting is also taught in Ansai’s public schools. Ms. Yu is aware of the need to go beyond protecting traditions and embrace new paper-cut experiments.24.

The direction of a traditional paper cutting.CA recent study conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT）has discovered that river erosion（侵蚀）can lead to increased biodiversity in areas with minimal tectonic（地壳构造的）activity. The researchers focused their attention on the Tennessee River Basin and examined how the erosion of various rock types by the river had led to the separation and diversification of a type of fish called the greenfin darter. As time passed, these separate fish populations evolved into distinct families with genetic differences.Scientist Thomas Near observed that the greenfin darter was exclusively found in the southern half of the Tennessee River Basin. The researchers analyzed the genes of each fish in Near’s data set and constructed an evolutionary tree. This tree helped them comprehend the evolution and differences of the greenfin darter species. They discovered that the fish within the same branch of the river were more closely related to each other than to the fish in other branches.This study provides evidence that river erosion significantly impacts biodiversity in regions with low tectonic activity. It illustrates how changes in the landscape caused by river erosion can lead to the division and diversification of species over time, even in peaceful environments. These findings enhance our understanding of the mechanisms（机制）that drive biodiversity and evolution, even in areas that are not typically associated with intense tectonic activity.Subsequently, the team discovered a strong correlation between the habitats of the greenfin darter and the type of rocks present. The southern half of the Tennessee River Basin consists of hard, tightly packed rocks, resulting in turbulent（湍急的）waves in the rivers that flow through it. This characteristic may be favored by the greenfin darter. As a result, the team assumed whether the distribution of greenfin darter habitats had been influenced by the changing rock types, as the rivers eroded the land over time. To test this assumption, the researchers developed a simulation model. Remarkably, the results confirmed their assumption.28. What is new about the MIT study A. It finds river erosion can enhance biodiversity.B. It further proves the mechanisms of river erosion.C. It proves the geographical features of biodiversity.D. It classifies a type of fish called the greenfin darter.29. What can we learn about the greenfin darter A. Their appearances vary between families.B. Their genetic constitutions have diversified.C. They prefer the deep and slow-flowing river.D. They go extinct in the changing landscape of rivers.30. How did Near help the researchers reach their conclusion A. By creating an evolutionary tree of the fish.B. By offering the fish’s genetic data.C. By reasoning out the time the fish evolve and separate.D. By analyzing the genetic similarity between different fish.31. What is the best title for the text A. River Erosion Can Shape Fish EvolutionB. Genetic Change in the Greenfin DarterC. Evolutionary Tree Analysis of the Greenfin DarterD. The Impact of Climate Change on Fish Divers tyDA planet that suffers 475 ° C beneath a thick ac d atmosphere may be the last place you’d expect alien（外星的） life in our solar system. But one NASA scientist claims that extraterrestrials（天外来客）are most likely hiding on Venus amid conditions that are unbearable for humans. The new theory was put forward by the research scientist Dr Michelle Thaller. She says that possible signs of life have already been seen within the carbon-dioxide filled atmosphere, adding that she was absolutely certain that life exists somewhere.Venus is often described as Earth’s twin due to its similar size and structure. But their conditions couldn’t be further apart, as astronomers believe it would be impossible for humans to exist on Venus. Positioned 67 million miles from the Sun, Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, suffering temperatures that can even melt lead. Its atmosphere also adds to the uninhabitable situation.Desp te this, scientists have long debated whether Venus clouds may host microbial（微生物的）life forms that can survive. Many scientists think that photosynthesis（光合作用）is possible on the planet’s surface as Venus receives enough solar energy to pass through its thick clouds.However, Professor Dominic Papineau, a biologist at the University College of London, believes Dr Thaller’s views are “difficult to realistically assume”. He explained, “For life-related chemical reactions to take place, liquid water is necessary. Hence, to find extraterrestrial life, we need to find liquid water, and to find extraterrestrial fossils requires looking for special rocks that were associated with liquid water in the past.”This makes life on Venus today difficult to realistically assume, because its surface is too hot, although Venus might have had liquid water in its past. Even still, both Professor Papineau and Dr Thaller agree that the icy moons of our solar system could also be sites of potential m crob al life. NASA suggests there are 290 “traditional moons” in our solar system—excluding 462 smaller minor planets.32. What can we know about Venus A. Its atmosphere is thin acidic.B. It is much bigger than Earth.C. It is 77 million miles from the Sun.D. Venus and Earth are considered as twins.33. Which statement would Papineau agree with A. Photosynthesis can happen on Venus’s surface.B. Thick clouds make photosynthesis in Venus hard.C. Liquid water is important for the extraterrestrials.D. Some rocks can prove life exists on Venus.34. What can we know from the last paragraph A. The surface temperature of Venus is high.B. It’s very easy to confirm life on Venus.C. Venus might have liquid water now.D. Many icy moons go around Venus.35. In which section of a newspaper can you find this text A. Education. B. Science. C. Culture. D. Sports.答案2024届广东省梅州市高三年级总复习质检（二模）英语试题【答案】1. B 2. D 3.
