Be a good tourist
May 19th is named by the State Council as National Tourism Day. As a matter of fact, some tourists pay little attention to their behavior when enjoying themselves. So I appeal to all of us to be good tourists.
One key phrase I would like to draw your attention to is “traceless travel”, which means you tour a place without posing any threat to the environment. Good tourists leave no traces-no litter, no graffiti and no irritated locals, thus promoting a better tourism culture.
It’s every tourist’s responsibility to speak and act in ways that represent our country’s image and civilization.

But I suddenly realized I had missed a sentence. My heart raced as I scrambled to remember it. Despite my best efforts, the words eluded me, leaving me flustered on stage. However, with the support of my fellow actors, I managed to carry on. As the scene progressed, I gradually regained my composure, focusing on my lines and movements. When the moment came to take my bow, a wave of relief washed over me. I bowed to the audience excitedly, grateful for their applause.
I bowed to the audience excitedly and went back to my drama teacher. With a mixture of exhilaration and nervous energy, I recounted the experience to her. She offered words of encouragement and praised my resilience under pressure. Reflecting on the night’s events, I realized that even amidst the chaos and uncertainty, I had persevered and delivered a memorable performance. With newfound confidence, I eagerly awaited the next opportunity to step into the spotlight.淄博中学2023-2024学年第二学期高二期中考试

When Jenny Streete began caring for older people more than 50 years ago, prejudice was part of her everyday working life. Streete, who grew up in Jamaica and came to England in 1967, had a way of dealing with it: “Just put a smile on your face,” she says. “If you let bad words into your brain, it will only cause you more harm.”
The 81-year-old remembers one instance of abuse. Streete says: “The sister who was managing the ward tried to calm a woman down. But I told the sister to let her say what she has to say. I don’t mind.” The next night, Streete noticed the woman’s blanket had fallen off. She replaced it, telling the patient in a low voice exactly what she was doing and why. The same thing happened the next night, and the next. “But then, the night that I was off duty, that same woman asked the sister: ‘Where is that black lady I don’t want anyone else to look after me while she is on duty. She was so kind.’”
Brought up by her grandparents, Streete found her vocation after a mystery illness that nearly killed her, and left her with permanently damaged vision. She got better, she says, because of “loving care and tenderness”. When she came to England, she was determined to give that care to others.
And Streete hopes to carry on caring for older people as long as possible — although, she says, her children are urging her to retire. She currently works two nights a week in an end-of-life ward which provides specialist nursing. Many of the people she looks after are now a similar age to her.
Her preference for night shifts hasn’t changed, either. She frequently stays on after her shift is finished, to spend time with residents.
She urges those considering a career in care to think hard about why they’re choosing it. “Sometimes, people are not happy because they don’t want to do the job — they have to do it, because there is no other way. Wanting to do it is very different from having to do it.”
But the key quality a care worker needs, she says, is patience, “Some people like to do everything quick-quick-quick, but you have to take your time with residents. I just try to treat everybody the way I would like to be treated.”
24．What do we know about Jenny Streete
A．She never accepts others’ words. B．She minded so much when abused.
C．She fell ill when she left Jamaica. D．She has her own opinions about nursing.
25．What motivated Streete to choose her lifelong occupation
A．Her love for England. B．The tender care she got.
C．Older people’s prejudice. D．Her grandparents’ encouragement.
26．What qualities does Streete possess as a nurse
A．Serious and wise. B．Positive but stubborn.
C．Responsible and patient. D．Honest but indifferent.
27．What is the passage mainly about
A．Jenny Streete’s care for others in her whole life.
B．Jenny Streete’s advice on how to find a good job.
C．Jenny Streete’s experiences of fighting disease.
D．Jenny streete’s determination to remove prejudice.

The Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park in East China’s Zhejiang Province, founded in 2005, is the country’s first national wetland park. Situated in the western part of Hangzhou, Xixi is only 5 kilometers away from the West Lake, a renowned UNESCO World Heritage site in the city.
Water is the soul of Xixi. With an area of 11.5 square kilometers, the park is mostly covered by streams, ponds, lakes and swamps, with six long rivers forming a tangled network of waterways. Nearly 70 percent of the park is water and the length of waterways inside the park surpasses 100 kilometers.
Additionally, about 85 percent of the land in Xixi is covered by plants such as reeds（芦苇), willows and persimmon (柿子) trees and a variety of wildlife living among them, making Xixi a great platform for animal and bird watching, scientific research and education.
Because of its abundant water resources and species, Xixi Wetland is an important part of Hangzhou’s ecosystem and helps purify water, relieve flooding, regulate the climate and maintain biodiversity. Nestled in an urban area of the city, it is called “the natural purifier of Hangzhou”.
As well as providing a place for people to enjoy the region’s natural charm, Xixi Wetland is also a cultural treasure which has been described and extolled by scholars throughout history.
Xixi was a land of beauty and a place of seclusion(隐居) in the eyes of ancient people. Inspired by the elegance of Xixi, many literati(文人)—including Su Dongpo, Tang Bohu, Dong Qichang and Yu Dafu —created numerous literary works about the place. Some of them are showcased on the inscribed boards and tablets dotted throughout the wetland park.
The Xixi Wetland was not quite so well-known to people until the famous Chinese film director Feng Xiaogang used it as a backdrop for part of his 2008 film If You Are the One, adding the wetland to the list of must-visit tourist attractions in Hangzhou.
Today, the pristine(未开发的) scenery, the rustic (淳朴的) charm of a country lifestyle and the ancient traditions of Xixi attract tourists from around the world.
28．How long is the waterway of Xixi National Wetland Park
A．Over 5 kilometers. B．Over 11.5 kilometers.
C．Over 70 kilometers. D．Over 100 kilometers.
29．Why is Xixi National Wetland Park called “the natural purifier of Hangzhou”
A．Because it is a platform for animal and bird watching.
B．Because it is a platform for scientific research and education.
C．Because it is nestled in an urban area of the city.
D．Because its ecosystem helps purify water.
30．The underlined word “extolled” in Paragraph 5 most probably means “________”.
A．criticized B．praised C．represented C． painted
31．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A．Return to Paradise B．Tourist Attractions in Hangzhou
C．Hangzhou, the Natural Purifier D．A Place of Seclusion
D
Artificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “It’s a matter of milliseconds(毫秒), and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquake stations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
32．How does the AI predict earthquakes
A．By identifying data from the satellites.
B．By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.
C．By modeling data based on earthquake recordings.
D．By monitoring changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.
33．What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3
A．The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.
B．The importance of preparing for earthquakes.
C．The significance of developing the AI prediction.
D．The limitation of AI algorithms in earthquake prediction.
34．What does the follow-up research focus on
A．Conducting tests in different locations.
B．Applying the AI approach to other fields.
C．Building more earthquake stations in Texas.
D．Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy.
35．Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology
A．Stable but outdated. B．Effective but costly.
C．Potential and economical. D．Advanced and promising.

I was confident at the audition (试演) for the school play and felt pleased to get a role. It just felt good to be in the play, even if I had only four or five lines. I worked hard at perfecting those lines. I repeated them over and over again. I put in the emphases and intonations (语调) that my drama teacher had suggested and, because I was on stage much longer than for just four or five lines, I had many actions to rehearse (排练) and perform. “Do them in front of a mirror,” my drama teacher had advised me. “Watch how you look; practice and rehearse as often as you can.” I did just that. I worked and worked at it. It was fun and exciting rehearsing.
Then finally the big night came. Suddenly, things felt different. The theater was full of people. As I dressed, I could hear the chatting and noises of the audience. I looked around at the other more experienced actors and saw that their previous confidence seemed to have disappeared. Had they got their makeup right Was the costume done up correctly What if they forgot their lines The more people talked about their anxiety, the more nervous everyone became. The worries spread from person to another—like a baton (接力棒) being passed in a relay race—until the whole of the backstage area seemed to be full of tension and worry.
I was on stage early, at first performing my non-spoken role in the background with several other guys around the same age. When, suddenly, I heard my cue (出场提示), the lights were bright in my eyes, I couldn’t see the audience but knew there were hundreds of people out there all watching me. The words that had flowed so easily when I stood in front of a mirror didn’t want to come, and when they did I found myself hurrying into them. I tried to slow down my thoughts and my words.
