I immediately noticed, in the parking space next to his car, a folding table. At the sight of the table,
I realized what Luke was going to do. Delighted and excited,Luke opened the trunk of his car. He
pulled out a tablecloth, two folding chairs,a bottle of champagne and a few dishes that he had
arranged. “ This is the most special dinner that I have ever seen!” I said with astonishment. I
jumped up and hugged him tightly. With everything ready, we sat face to face and enjoyed this
delicious food. At the same time, we shared happiness and sorrow. We cheered for our friendship.
Bright smiles spread across sour faces. However, how time flies!
With seven and one-half minutes to go, we put everything back in the car and ran for my plane.
Fortunately, we arrived at the boarding gate in time. Without saying goodbye to Luke, I checked in
hurriedly and boarded the plane with only seconds to spare. Relieved, I collapsed into my seat.
Throughout the entire flight, I couldn’t help recalling the whole thrilling experience in my head. The
whole thing happened so quickly that I didn’t really have a chance to thank him properly. As soon
as the plane landed, I called him and said “Luke, thank you. That was the most special dinner that I
had ever had.” Seized by satisfaction, I stepped off the plane, hoping to treat him to dinner next time.2024-2025学年度第二学期第一次月考 高二英语

One evening five years ago, Joshua Coombes was walking to a friend’s house after finishing work at a
hairdressing salon when he stopped to talk to Michael. He had bought the homeless man something to eat
or given him some spare change(零钱), but this time a thought occurred to Coombes: How about I offer
him a haircut He had his scissors in his backpack and he cut the man's hair right there on the street. As
he worked, the pair of them fell into the chatty intimacies (亲密) of barber(理发师)0 and customer.
The next time they met, the man introduced Coombes to a couple of his friends and he got his scissors
out for them too.
Soon, he was out as often as he could be, enjoying the chance to change often desperate lives in a
small, surprising way. When we met for a coffee near his home in Peckham, south London, he said,
“Living on the street, you’re thinking of where you’re getting your next meal. So my walking up and
offering a haircut was unexpected and most of the time people were really receptive. And if they’re not,
that’s totally fine too. I’ll just have a chat with someone and see where that goes.”
About a year after that first spring evening, Coombes gave up his job at the salon and devoted himself
to his new career full time. He had started taking before-and-after pictures of his homeless “customers”
and posting them along with the stories he heard about their lives on his Instagram account. He came up
with a hashtag #Do Something For Nothing, which inspired some readers to think what they could do;
one friend, for example, a vet, started to offer to treat the dogs of people on the street.
He also put the stories of many of the people whose hair he had this year cut --- in Britain and on later
trips in India and across the US ---into a book to raise awareness further this year. His royalties(版税) all
go to charity(慈善).
4.What did Coombes do for Michael
A. He gave Michael money. B. He lunched with Michael.
C.He introduced Michael to his friends. D.He invited Michael to his barbershop.
5. How did most people on the street react to Coombes’ haircut offer
A. They gave him the cold shoulder. B. They willingly accepted his offer.
C. They were doubtful of his purpose. D. They asked for something else instead.
6.What did Coombes do this year
A. He took photos of the homeless.
B. He took on a well-paid job to help the homeless.
C. He authored a book about his homeless “customers”.
D. He toured around to inspire the homeless to dream big.
7. What’s the best title for the text
A. A friend in need B. A book in the making

C. A street for the homeless D. A hairdresser to street people

There is nothing quite like stepping into the shower at any time of the day. A warm shower certainly
sounds more comfortable, but a number of influential people have recently said that for them, taking a
freezing cold shower every morning is the best thing they have ever started to do. Take Jack Dorsey, the
co-founder and CEO of Twitter, for example. He said in an interview, “Nothing has given me more
mental confidence than being able to go straight from room temperature into the cold.” For us, starting
the day in the freezing cold is the worst thing anyone can suggest!
Recently in Holland, 3,000 people volunteered to take part in an experiment. They were all instructed
to take a warm shower every day. When they were about to finish, they were told to reduce the
temperature for a 30-second burst of freezing water. Following the experiment, most of them said that the
cold shower had given them a surge in energy that felt similar to drinking strong pared with
others who had not taken the cold shower, they said they were less likely to call their office and say they
were sick. What’s more, 64 percent thought they would continue with the cold showers even though the
experiment had come to an end.
This change in energy has been explained by Professor Andreas Michalsen from Berlin. “Cells in our
skin that respond to light and heat react when coming into freezing water. These cells, called receptors,
send a message to the brain which releases endorphins (内啡肽 ) into the bloodstream. Endorphins are
chemicals that help reduce body pain or can help you feel more relaxed or full of energy.”
Cold water arouses blood flow which can reduce the itching (瘙痒 ) and bleeding caused by a skin
condition called eczema (湿疹). Eczema can make your skin itch. This is good news for people suffering
from eczema. So would you take a freezing cold shower every day
8. What is Jack Dorsey’s attitude towards cold showers
A. Intolerant. B. Favorable. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
9. What can we learn about the participants in the experiment
A. They began with warm showers.
B. They had taken cold showers for years.
C. They took cold showers every two days.
D. They drank strong coffee before taking cold showers.
10. What does the underlined word “surge” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Balance. B. Saving. C. Rise. D. Loss.
11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. A cause of a skin disease. B. The seriousness of eczema.
C. An advantage of taking cold showers. D. The explanation of the experiment result.

Leaving a group of friends the other night, I turned to wave. “Text me!” one of them said, moving her
thumbs(拇指) in the air. I didn't need the words. Among my friends, this gesture has replaced the
imaginary cups to ear and mouth, as if making a phone call.
Today, we may be more likely to move our fingers across a mobile phone than turn the pages of a
book. Yet when it comes to gesturing, certain outdated motions (动作) last.
Gestures can generally be sorted into two categories, according to Spencer Kelly from Colgate
University. “Co-speech gestures” are often the unconscious (无意识的) ways we move our hands as we
talk. Researchers believe these gestures help us think and speak and even learn. “Symbolic gestures” are
the cultural motions that we use to replace speech. Some of these gestures are symbolic, and some, as in
the case of thumb-texting, copy real actions.
Some gestures are recycled, their meanings changing as cultures develop. In ancient Rome, the
thumbs-up was a sign to kill the gladiator (角斗士). Anthony Corbeill, the author of Nature Embodied:
Gesture in Ancient Rome, suspects that the current American meaning of the gesture developed during
the 20th century, when American soldiers used the thumbs-up to signify that a plane was cleared for
takeoff. Other gestures are coined afresh, the result of new technology or the habits of a public figure. The
fist bump (碰拳), which spread after Barack and Michelle Obama were photographed in action in 2008,
can be traced to the mid-20th-century baseball player Stan Musial, who is said to have preferred it to the
high five.
There's also the mind-blowing realization that the more advanced our technology becomes, the less
we have to move at all - a futuristic reality, signs of which we’re beginning to see with the rise of
voice-recognition software. Does this mean that gestures might one day disappear “If the computer can
track your eye look and know what you’re looking at, you don’t need to make a gesture,” says Jason
Riggle from the University of Chicago.
12. How did the author feel about his friend’s gesture
A. It was old-fashioned. B. It was mysterious.
C. It was rude. D.It was clear.
13. What can be learned about people making co-speech gestures
A. They’re bored with them. B. They’re unaware of them.
C.They’re careful about them. D.They’re unhappy about them.
14.What can be inferred about the thumbs-up sign
A. It came into being not long ago.
C.It was popularized by a public figure.
B.It was used on and off in history.
D. It was related to cruelty at the beginning
15. What does the futuristic reality in the last paragraph refer to
A. The less use of gestures. C.The bad influence of technology.
4
B.The complexity of gestures. D.The mind-blowing nature of social life.

Life is filled with numerous victories and downfalls. 16 Here’s how you can create a new
chapter in your life.
Draw a Line Mentally
Life is going to throw a lot of problems your way, so you need to be mentally prepared for each and
every situation. 17 In order to be better than before, you need to leave that guilt and shame in
the past and emerge as someone new. The secret here is to never stop trying. Once you stop trying, you
are already defeated.
Learn From Others
It is an effective approach to find people that have gone through the same trials as you have. 18
They can assist you better since they know the hardships. Always seek out people who are truly free of
their issues, as they will be able to help you genuinely.
Do What Actually Works
19 Don’t follow the path to anger and destroy what is good for you. Actively engaging in
battles and struggles can be challenging, but being stuck in pain and self-resentment will be even harder.
Picture your goals in your mind and take sensible steps towards them with each passing day.
20 Let nothing stand in your way.
A.What truly matters is how you react to them.
B.You can learn from their experiences and successes.
C.Live in reality and make wise choices for yourself.
D.Find those who have successfully overcome similar challenges.
E.In such situations, drawing a mental line can be helpful.
F.Nothing should prevent you from achieving your dreams and goals.
G.It is essential to stay positive and focused on what brings you joy.

They did it. They reached safety in 16 days and 35 their place in history.

第四部分 读后续写(满分 25 分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事(珍贵友谊)
Several years ago, as I was on a business trip from San Francisco to New Orleans, I noticed I would
have some time at the airport in Dallas before catching my connecting flight. So I called my friend Luke
who lived in Dallas "Luke, I've got an hour-and-a-half stop at the airport. If you'll come out and meet my
plane, I'll treat you to dinner." Luke enthusiastically agreed.
When the pilot announced that our flight would be delayed an extra few minutes in San Francisco, I
became upset. Every minute that passed was one minute less that I would be able to spend with my friend.
The plane arrived in Dallas an hour late. That left me only half an hour to stay with Luke and I still
needed time to catch my connecting flight. At this point, I knew our having dinner together was totally
out of the question.
When I stepped off the plane, Luke was there waiting for me. "Hey, Luke," I said apologetically.
"Thanks for coming out to meet me. I hope you didn't have to wait here too long."
"Oh, no problem, he replied easily. "I called ahead and found out your plane was going to be late."
"Oh, good," I replied. "Look, I'm really sorry about dinner, but I'll owe you one next e on,
we'll find out what gate my next plane is leaving from. We can head over there together and talk a bit.
8
"I am very interested in having dinner with you, "he said to me. "
The only way you're going to have dinner with me tonight is if you buy a plane ticket to New
Orleans!"
"We're having dinner," replied Luke with determination. "Believe me, I have this whole thing
arranged. Just follow me."
He picked up one of my bags and carried it out through the security check. The two of us hurried
down a short flight of stairs in the parking garage and walked rapidly along several rows of cars until we
came to the place where Luke's car was parked.
注意: 1.续写词数应为 150左右:
