In 1959,Handler changed how toy dolls were made when she introduced"Barbie"to the world.With her mature figure,Barbie was one of the first“grown-up”dolls to hit the retail market.
Handler wanted to create a toy that was different from the baby dolls that dominated little girls'toy boxes.She wanted a doll that girls could project their future dreams upon and allowed for limitless clothing and career choices.Inspired by paper dolls of the time,Handler,to much disagreement,made sure Barbie had the body of a grown woman.
“My own philosophy of Barbie,"Handler wrote in her autobiography,“was that through the doll,the little girl could be anything she wanted to be.Barbie always represented the fact that a woman had choices."
There's even a Barbie for cancer patients —Brave Barbie —a partnership between Mattel and CureSearch that sends a bald(光头的)Barbie to families affected by cancer.“Gifting my daughter a Barbie who suffered from cancer was tremendous,"Michelle,a cancer survivor said,“We would play with that Barbie together and I'd heartbreakingly watch her pretend to take the doll to the hospital for chemo(化疗),or place its long wig on top of its head and tell the doll ‘It's
time to be beautiful again.”
Bald Barbie was super brave and went on awesome adventures after chemo.Sometimes she felt sick and needed to sleep,but would feel much better after a rest.Bald Barbie always beat the cancer and went on to live a long and happy life with her family.That Barbie became so much more than a plastic doll —she was a means of communication and a coping mechanism during an extremely distressing time for little families.
24.Why did Handler create Barbie
A.To make a hit in the retail market.
B.To appeal to girls with her diverse outfits.
C.To do a project on women's career choices.
D.To inspire girls to make choices as they wish.
25.How might Michelle feel when watching her daughter with Brave Barbie
A.Sad yet comforted B.Envious yet proud.
C.Overwhelmed and ashamed. D.Heartbroken and regretful.
26.What does Brave Barbie mean to Michelle's family
A A reliable emotional support. B.A glue for broken relationships.
C.An effective practical treatment. D.A secret medium of negotiation.
27.Where is the text probably taken from
A.A medical journal. B.A charity brochure.
C.A financial report. D.A story collection.

In 2022,campaign group Fashion Revolution Chelsea dye a garden for its Chelsea Flower Show presentation.An ancient craft,natural dyeing is a practice whose time has come again,with hand tie-dyed fashion also making a comeback in recent years.
The revival has been encouraged by Covid lockdowns,“which allowed people to explore the craft at home,says natural-dyeing enthusiast and teacher Susan Dye.It's unlikely,though, that the practice would have caught on in quite the same way if not for a continually growing discomfort about fashion's heavy footprint.From carbon emissions to animal cruelty,fashion is under considerable inspection.“Put it this way,97%of dyes used in the industry are petrochemically(石油化学产品)based,”says sustainable fashion consultant Jackie Andrews,who helped advise the UN Ethical Fashion Initiative.We've got net zero targets which mean we're going to have to remove all those petrochemicals from the manufacturing cycle.
Fashion is a huge polluter.According to the UN Environment Program,the industry is responsible for up to one-fifth of all industrial water pollution—due to the fact that most clothes today are produced in poorer countries where regulation is weak and enforcement weaker.Waste water is dumped directly into rivers and streams,poisoning the land as well as the water sources of people and animals who rely on them.
It's easy to see why someone who cares about people,planet and animals,as well as clothes, might turn to natural plant dyeing.From the beauty of the raw materials—often wild plants to the property of only bonding with natural fiber like cotton and linen(亚麻布)from the minor footprint of recycling old clothing that has grayed or faded over time to the vibrant and long-lasting dyeing results,plant dyeing feels like a quiet act of rebellion. This is why,while beginners start with simply changing their clothes'color,new worlds open.Many of today's natural dyers grow their own dye plants,run local community workshops,and advocate for change in industrialized fashion systems and beyond.
28.What is the main reason for the growing discomfort mentioned in paragraph 2
A.The adoption of petrochemical-based dyes
B.The disturbing consequences of the fashion industry.
C.The fashion industry's focus on luxurious designs.
D.The challenging net zero targets to be achieved.
29.How does the author illustrate Fashion is a huge polluter
A.By making a comparison. B.By listing numbers
C.By giving examples. D.By introducing a new topic
30.What does the underlined phrase a quiet act of rebellion in paragraph 4 refer to
A.A protest against turning to natural fiber.
B.An objection to recycling old clothing
C.A resistance to vibrant colors in natural dyeing
D.A struggle for a sustainable fashion industry
31.What would be the most suitable title for the passage
A.The Environmental Impact of Natural Dyeing
B.The Return of Natural Dyeing with Ethical Appeal
C.Fashion Revolution's Dye Garden Presentation
D.The Petrochemical Dye Industry and Its Challenges
D
Despite all the efforts students make to graduate with a science major,research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented ( 碎 片 化 的 ) understanding of fundamental scientific concepts.The teaching method improves memorization of separate facts,proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them,instead of learning how to use the information and connect those
facts meaningfully.
With that in mind,we developed a series of cross-disciplinary(跨学科的)activities.In our most recent study,we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena.To begin with,we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering.All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses.We asked them to identify connections between the content of these courses and what they believed to be the take-home messages from each course.The students responded with extensive lists of topics,concepts,and skills that they'd learned in class.
Following that,a set of cross-disciplinary activities were designed to guide students in the use of core chemistry ideas and knowledge to help explain real-world biological phenomena.One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells.Here,the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals,clams and oysters.
Overall,the students felt confident of their chemistry knowledge.However,they had a harder time applying the same chemistry knowledge to explaining the biological phenomena. These findings highlight that a big gap remains between what students learn in their science courses and how well prepared they are to apply that information.
The students in our study also reported that these activities helped them see links between the two disciplines that they wouldn't have perceived otherwise.The ability to make these connections is important beyond the classroom as well,because it's the basis of science literacy (科学素养).So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at least would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it.
32.What does the existing science education fail to do according to the research
A.Extend students'theoretical knowledge.
B Engage students in more outdoor activities.
C.Encourage students to enjoy the learning process.
D.Teach students to make connections among different subjects.
33.What can we learn about the student interviewees
A.They have rich academic knowledge.
B.They pay little attention to biology courses.
C.They hardly identify the core ideas of science.
D.They fully understand their major's importance.
34.The activity about ocean acidification expects students to
A.analyse the exact composition of sea water.
B.study some unusual phenomena under the sea.
C.come up with practical methods to protect sea life.
D.explain the effects of carbon dioxide on sea creatures.
35.What does the author see from the result of the study
A.The need to remove the unfairness in education.
B.The difficulties of cross-disciplinary study.
C.The potential to promote students' science literacy.
D.The method of increasing students' practical skills.

What your dinner photos on Instagram say about you
Posting pictures on Instagram is a modern day version of writing a journal:It's all about creating a connection between ourselves,our lives,friends,family and the wider public. 36 Each day,at least 95 million posts are shared on Instagram.
37 Some people will post photos of their pets,their holidays or their social life —-but in recent years,posting photos of the food that we eat conveys to the viewer something more than the food itself.
If someone posts photos of a meal that they have just cooked,the message they're trying to convey is that they are a capable person.For example,if someone is on a health kick,they often seek social approval.If they've made a really healthy meal,they will typically post it with hashtags “#”like diet or health,which tie into other people's experiences. 38
There is also a growing trend of people taking photos of their food when they dine out at a restaurant. 39 These Instagrammers often tag places that are considered selective or to have a certain clientele (顾客群),like celebrities—to indicate that they're a person of worth.It feeds into their need for social approval and is a way of boosting their own self-esteem.
If people are on a diet or trying to eat a bit better,they can use platforms like Instagram to track what they've been eating.It's a way of motivating other people as well as holding themselves responsible,while subconsciously saying" 40 ”.Sharing the diet is a way of both getting attention and taking responsibility from a wider audience.
A.I am willing to take risks in my diet.
B.There are some reasons to post photos online.
C.I'm the sort of person who takes care of myself.
D.It's the same idea as wanting to feel part of a community.
E.The types of content we choose to post hold significance.
F.It generally implies an attempt to associate with luxury and taste.
G.We have a fundamental need to be part of something bigger than ourselves.

Jian bing is one of China's most popular street breakfasts. 56 Chinese dumplings have spread well beyond the country's borders,Jian bing might be China's best-kept culinary (烹饪的) secret.Every neighborhood has its own Jian bing vendor serving breakfast from dawn through mid-morning,satisfying hungry 57 (local)on their way to work.
Contrary 58 what you might think,Jian bing is no grab-and-go street breakfast. 59 (preserve)the crispness(酥脆)of the pancake,Jian bing is never cooked ahead of time,so waiting in a line is part of the culture.But 60 (basic),Jian bing is a breakfast worth waiting for.
Jian bing has a longer history than almost any other Chinese street food.Thought to have originated in Shandong Province during the Three Kingdoms Period,military strategist Zhuge Liang had his soldiers cook food on shields ( 盾 ) 61 (hold)over the fire.
Of course,if Jian bing were that easy to make,it would have taken the world by storm long before now.Part of 62 challenge in copying the dish is that the recipe for a Jian bing differs by region,and even by vendor.Many consider it 63 (possible)to make your own Jian bing without months of practice and tuition from a master.Yet a few committed forcigners have made it,who 64 (inspire)to bring Jian bing to a hungry audience after their first taste in China back in the 1980s.In the UK,twins Melissa and Oliver Fu,owners of Mei Mei's Street Cart are bringing the joys of Jian bing first to London and now Manchester despite all the difficulty they ave in 65 (perfect)their technique.

“Mom!”I screamed as I looked through the window,“Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary's window ”
Mom pushed past me to confirm it.Sure enough,across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs.Cleary's sitting room.I couldn't believe my eyes.He was my cat, not Mrs.Cleary's.She had already adopted twelve cats.Why must she keep my cat I could feel anger boiling up inside me.Meanwhile,Ink Spot's leaving without any signs upset me.A sense of being left out hit me hard.
Ink Spot was special for me.After my baby sister's birth,"my"parents'time was taken by her.It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me.Worse still,I was packed off to a kindergarten.I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
It was when mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change. After that,Ink Spot came into my life.Every night,he curled(卷曲)up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten,for which I called him Ink Spot.Mom and daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again.It was the first time that I had smiled since my litle baby sister came into the family.As for me,he was more than a cat.Actually,he was my life.
But today when I came home,Ink Spot was in Mrs.Cleary's window.I wanted him back. But mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs.Cleary's,that meant it was where he wanted to be.“No!Mom,Ink Spot is my cat”,I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of mom's words.Standing on the sidewalk,I was at a loss as to what to do.Staring at Ink Spot for a while,I couldn't stand the anger any longer.
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。
I walked towards Mrs.Cleary's house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.
Upon seeing me,Ink Spot jumped off the window,running towards me in a flash.怀仁市 2023~2024学年度上学期高二

Dear Jason,
Learning that our school English Club plans to carry out a series of reading and sharing activities
of “Embracing the Classics”, and is now collecting books from all the students, I’d like to recommend
a classic book—Jane Eyre to you.
Jane Eyre written by the famous English novelist Charlotte Bronte tells the story of a British
woman—Jane Eyre who constantly pursues freedom and dignity in various tribulations, insists on
herself, and finally obtains happiness. I promise this is a book which can not only inspire readers to
think but also tells us that no matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter, we should remain
positive and independent, and bravely pursue our dreams and happiness.
I would appreciate it if you could take my recommendation into consideration.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua
读后续写:
I walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily. The moment
she opened the door, I asked Mrs. Cleary with watery eyes, “Why is my cat in your window？ ”
Confused, Mrs. Cleary responded， “I didn’t know he was yours. I just thought he was another
abandoned cat, so I took him in just like I took in all the rest. If what I did has hurt you, I am awfully
sorry.” Then she led me directly to the sitting room, where cats were playing happily.
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash. A flood of
excitement passed through my body. I immediately picked him up and held him close as he rubbed
beneath my chin purring loudly. Seeing my cat well taken care of, I realized I had misunderstood my
caring neighbor. Now my anger gave way to gratitude. I thanked her again and again before I took Ink
Spot to my home, where I thought he should belong. The lost and found companion made me feel I
was someone again.
