A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods.”可知，Farber的一些同事认为他的方法不同寻常，可能认为他有些古怪，unusual与odd为同义替换。故选A。25. C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain...Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients.”可推知，Farber博士用针灸治好了自己很严重的腰痛，自己从针灸中受了益，因此他决定在宠物身上尝试。故选C。26.

In that case, it will be considered as 'domestic violence'. ”(这项法律旨在限制在家里吸烟,因为在同一屋檐下吸烟可能危害他人的健康。在这种情况下,吸烟将被视为“家庭暴力”。)可知,泰国的新法律认为在家吸烟是一种家庭暴力。故选C项。29答案：B解析：词义猜测题。根据画线单词所在句中“The law aims at limiting smoking at home”(这项法律旨在限制在家里吸烟)可知,这项法律的目的是限制在家里吸烟。再结合生活常识可知,限制吸烟,是因为吸烟会导致家里的其他人成为被动吸烟者,这对他们的身体有害,“Harmful”意为“有害的”,符合句意。故选B项。30.答案：D解析：段落大意题。根据第四段关键句“Smoking at home also may lead to physical or emotional violence because of aggressiveness (攻击性) when there is a lack of smoking, and might as well ruin relationships between smokers and non-smoker family members. ”(在家里吸烟还可能导致身体或精神暴力,因为在缺乏吸烟的情况下人具有攻击性,还可能破坏吸烟的和不吸烟的家庭成员之间的关系。)可知,第四段的主要内容是介绍在家吸烟的不良后果。故选D项。31.答案：D解析：推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“The law aims at limiting smoking at home which might be hazardous for others' health living under the same roof. ”(这项法律旨在限制在家里吸烟,因为在同一屋檐下吸烟可能危害他人的健康。)和最后一段关键句“In February, 2019, Thailand had banned smoking at six of its airports along with a ban in public places. ”(2019年2月,泰国在公共场所实施禁烟令的同时,还禁止在6个机场吸烟。)可知,本文主要介绍了泰国为禁烟做出的努力,限制在家里吸烟,禁止在公共场所吸烟,禁止在6个机场吸烟等。由此可知,泰国正在努力创造无烟的环境。故选D项。.

Here I would like to propose an activity called “Get Your Hands Dirty in Hiking”, in which students should combine hiking with cleaning up trails.To get immersed in the beauty of nature, students can form groups to go hiking during the holidays, which can not only promote their physical health but also help alleviate study stress. In addition, in this activity, students are encouraged to bring recycled bags to pick up trash along the hiking trails. This eco-friendly hike will definitely raise students’ awareness of environment conservation, further strengthening their sense of duty as essential members of society.I eagerly anticipate this initiative becoming a workable program. It is through these hands-on experiences that we students can be inspired to make a difference in nature and beyond.第二节Possible versionJust at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car. Empathy surged within me as I saw the shock and disbelief on their faces. I couldn’t help but approach Luella, tightly holding her hands and saying, “I’m so sorry for your loss, but thankfully you’re all right.” She weakly nodded at me, still appearing puzzled by the devastating sight. My family volunteered to help hers clean up the mess, cutting down the branches and removing the fallen trees from the yard. To uplift Luella’s spirits and bring her comfort, I tried my best to cheer her up while tidying the garden with her, during which my own joyful personality seemed to revive a bit.Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden. My heart went out to her, knowing how much she had cherished those tulips that she had devoted so much energy to. Yet now, they were all gone. Determined to restore the beauty that once thrived, I suggested that we rebuild the garden. Luella agreed delightedly. With each bulb carefully planted and watered, the new tulip seedlings once again filled the garden, which symbolized the sprouting of a new friendship between us, as well as the turning that I finally got embraced by this new environment. My mom was right: it’s more blessed to give than to receive because when you give. You may receive something unexpected in return.唐山市第二十六中学2023-2024学年度第二学期高二年级期末考试英语试题本试卷由四部分组成。其中，第一、二部分和第三部分的第一节为选择题。笫三部分的第二节和第四部分为非选择题。考试时间120分钟，满分150分。第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。1.What does the man want to do A.

But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine—combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.”24. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him A. He’s odd. B. He’s strict. C. He’s brave. D. He’s rude25. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets A. He was trained in it at university.B. He was inspired by another veterinarian.C. He benefited from it as a patient.D. He wanted to save money for pet owners.26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment.B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work.C. Examples of rare animal diseases.D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine.27. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association A. To prove Farber’s point.B. To emphasize its importance.C. To praise veterinarians.D. To advocate animal protection.CSmoking in your own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime, if the smoke is considered harmful to other people in the house.The new law, Family Protection and Deve-lopment Promotion Act, was initiated (启动) by the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security and was announced in the Royal Gazette on May 22, 2019. The law aims at limiting smoking at home which might be hazardous for others' health living under the same roof. In that case, it will be considered as “domestic violence”. The new law came into force on August 20.According to the center for research and knowledge management for tobacco control, at the Faculty of Medical Science of Mahidol University, there are about 4. 9 million households where one or more family members smoke. An average of 10. 3 million people have unconsciously become passive smokers because they've been breathing in smoke at home. Scientific studies show that passive smokers are at greater risk of being affected by cancer.Of 75 child patients from houses where smoking is practiced, 76% of them were found to have nicotine traces in their urine (尿液), with 43% of them having nicotine content going beyond permitted levels. Smoking at home also may lead to physical or emotional violence because of aggressiveness (攻击性) when there is a lack of smoking, and might as well ruin relationships between smokers and non-smoker family members.According to the new law, anyone who thinks they are affected by domestic smoking can report to officials concerned so that inspectors will be sent to investigate and take legal action against the smokers. Once confirmed, the court may order a person to receive treatment to quit smoking in an attempt to protect the person's family. In February, 2019, Thailand had banned smoking at six of its airports along with a ban in public places.28. What do we know about the new law in Thailand A. It came into effect on May 22.B. It aimed at protecting the health of non-smokers.C. It regarded smoking at home as a kind of domestic violence.D. It clearly claimed that smoking at home is a crime.29. What does the underlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean A. Anxious. B. Harmful. C. Beneficial. D. Essential.30. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about A. The purpose of initiating the law.B. Responses to the new law.C. Actions to quit smoking.D. Bad consequences of smoking at home.31. What can be inferred from the text A. Smoking is illegal anywhere in Thailand.B. Passive smokers are not likely to suffer from cancer.C. People tend to be more aggressive when they are smoking.D. Thailand is making efforts to create a smoke free environment.DWith the introduction of its new C40 Recharge on Tuesday,Volvo became the latest automaker to bet that consumers who have so far been uninterested to the idea of an EV (electric vehicle) might change their minds if it comes in a form of cars they love：the crossover(跨界车). Whether they do may be vital to the success of California's plan to end sales of gasoline cars by 2035.Volvo joins Ford of Europe and Jaguar in promoting EVs,promising every car it makes and sells by 2030 will be all-electric. In a webcast to introduce the new vehicle,the company also laid out a new sale strategy—the C40 and all electric Volvo cars will be available for purchase only online. A group of electric crossovers has hit the market in recent months,including the Ford Mustang Mach-E,the Tesla Model-Y and the Volkswagen ID. 4.Whether customers flock (群集) to crossover EVs will signal to regulators how much or how little work they need to do to meet the plans such as California's. Despite the state's aggressive plan,sales of all-electric vehicles remain less than 2% of the US total.“The manufacturers are taking a calculated risk here,”said Matt DeLorenzo of auto market research firm Kelley Blue Book. “Crossovers are popular with the mainstream. That's where the volume is. ”Electric cars sold in the US until recently were short-range ones or high-end luxury cars,neither one a high-volume category. In 2020,2. 4 million crossovers were sold in the US. “If you can't sell an electric crossover,then you'll have trouble selling any kind of vehicle,” DeLorenzo said.To sell in large numbers,the vehicles will in the first place need continued government financial support for the next few years at least,Edmunds market analyst Caldwell said. Although battery costs are coming down,they still cost significantly more than gas engines. Although crossovers will serve as an early indicator of customer acceptance, Caldwell said she wouldn't call 2021 a make-or-break year for EV makers.32.

In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter.We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables—my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other.It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends.The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon.The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this.Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help.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。Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 唐山市第二十六中学2023-2024学年度第二学期高二年级期末英语试题.docx 唐山市第二十六中学2023-2024学年度第二学期高二年级期末英语试题答案.docx 英语试卷听力音频(1).mp3
