(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China's Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds wandering through the water. "I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings," Ma recalls. He was later informed that birds were flamingos, a rare sight in China, which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature's red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings frominterfering with the wildlife. "The birds are attracted by the good environment," Ma says. "I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year."
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometers and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began attaching greater importance to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development center was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. "The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected," says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was employed by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. "The lake's ecology is getting better," Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. "Some of them are my old friends", he says.
4.Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day
A.To serve as a keeper of the lake.
B.To observe the rare flamingos closely.
C.To admire the scenery around the lake.
D.To come across the flamingos again.
5.What does the underlined phrase "interfering with" in para 2 probably mean

(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解It's a typical day at school. You're playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you're in the nurse's office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) that coming out of a...robot Has the nurse's office been taken over by sci-fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You've just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it's a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. "I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how."
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn't need to take vacations. It doesn't need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what's wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn't meant to completely take the place of humans, though. "It would work with real, live nurses and doctors," says Epstein, "there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who's hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient."
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. "Besides", says Epstein, "I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!" Would you

(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解Yellow flower carpeted fields are a sure sign of summer. In Denmark alone, more than 200,000 hectares of rapeseed (油菜籽) are planted every year. But until now, the plant has only been used for oil and animal feed, as it is both bitter and unsafe as a direct food source for humans.
To protect themselves, the rapeseed plants produce a group of substances (物质) called glucosinolates(硫苷), which give the plants a strong and bitter taste that scares off insects and disease. As a result rapeseed is unhealthy to eat and the rapeseed cake, which is the remains of the seeds after the oil has been squeezed out, has only been used in limited quantities as feed for pigs and chickens, despite its 30—40 per cent protein content.
Now, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have discovered the three proteins that help to store the bitter substances in seeds of thale cress (阿拉伯芥), a plant closely related to the rapeseed. The new discovery makes it possible to prevent the accumulation (积聚) of these substances in the seed by removing the proteins through "transport engineering" technology. In doing so, the defensive substances remain in all other parts of the plant, allowing it to continue to defend itself.
So far, the researchers have shown that their method works in thale cress. "The next task is to apply our method to the closely related rapeseed plant, which we are now working on," says Professor Halkier, leader of the research.
"Half of plant proteins in the EU come from rapeseed plants. The climate crisis demands that we reduce meat consumption and eat more plants, which is where rapeseed has great potential as a new source of plant protein. Our latest research results bring us a step closer to making full use of rapeseed," says Professor Halkier.
12.What is the function of Paragraph 2
A.To state the reason. B.To offer the solution.
C.To give an example. D.To introduce the topic.
13.According to the research, how did scientists rid thale cress of its bitter taste
A.By selecting better seeds.
B.By removing the three proteins.
C.By increasing sweet tastes.
D.By storing defensive substances.
14.What do Halkier's words in last paragraph focus on
A.Researchers' efforts to better the taster.
B.Researchers' progress in their experiment.
C.Rapeseed's role in relieving climate crisis.
D.Rapeseed's potential as a new protein source.
15.Which of the following is a suitable title for this text
A.Harmful Proteins Discovered in Rapeseed
B.Rapeseed Widely Used as Oil and Animal Food
C.Researchers Closer to Making Rapeseed Safe Food
D.New Plant Proteins in Rapeseed Finally Uncovered

It took place in a teacher's family. One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living room after school when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf. The vase dropped to the floor and a large piece broke off. What made Ben more upset was that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique, which was handed down through generations from the 18th century. It was also his mother's favourite possession. To cover his terrible action, the terrified boy glued the pieces together hastily and put the vase back to its place.
As the mother herself dusted the vase every day, she naturally noticed the cracks(裂纹)that evening. To her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Fearing punishment, the suddenly inspired boy said that a neighbour's cat jumped in from the window and he couldn't drive it away no matter how hard he tried. It raced around the living room and finally her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned. However, in the face of her son's nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members, Ben's mother remained calm. She realised she shouldn't just simply blame and punish her son for lying. She came up with another idea.
Before going to bed, the boy found a note from his mother in his room, asking him to go to the study at once. The boy thought he would now be punished but, as he had already lied, he was determined to deny everything to the end, no matter how angry his mum became.
In the study, calmly bathed in the light, his mother's face showed no sign of anger. On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter, she took a box of chocolates out of a drawer and gave him one.
The mother said, "This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat!"
Now with some chocolates in his hand, the boy's bad attitude disappeared.
【答案】One possible version:
The mother said, "This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat! "Hearing her sincere appreciation, Ben flushed, lowered his head and muttered a thank you. Surprisingly, the mother took out another chocolate and pressed it into his hand. "This one is for the delicate repair work you did to the broken vase. "She also added that she was moved by how much the boy cherished the family possession. At these hearty remarks, Ben felt a flow of shame through his veins, and had to duck his head even lower. The mother then calmly encouraged Ben to reward himself with more chocolates for other merits he had displayed in this event. He did as he was told to, confessing that he was calm when facing the accident.
Now with some chocolates in his hand, the boy's bad attitude disappeared. His palm and forehead sweating, nervousness welled up inside him. After what seemed a long time, he looked up at his mother, admitted that it was not the cat but he that had broken the vase accidentally and asked for punishment. "I'm sorry I lied to you, Mum. Please take back the chocolates." Feeling so ashamed, Ben couldn't hold back his tears. He opened his palm wide, ready to return the chocolates. To his surprise, however, his mother placed the whole box of chocolates in his hand, smiling. "Honesty deserves the best reward, my dear."
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,该篇记叙文以事件为线索展开,讲述了一个叫作本的男孩把妈妈的古董花瓶打碎了,他为了推脱责任撒谎骗妈妈,但是在妈妈的启发之下勇敢地承认了错误的故事。段落续写:1. 由第一段首句内容"母亲说:"这巧克力是对你想象力的奖励:一只打开窗户的猫!""可知,第一段可描写母亲通过启发的方式让孩子承认错误。2. 由第二段首句内容"现在,手里拿着一些巧克力,男孩的坏态度消失了。"可知,第二段可描写本在母亲的起发下勇敢地承认了错误。续写线索:发现撒谎——谈话启发——本很感动——承认错误——获得谅解。写作时要注意准确运用时态,上下文意思要连贯,符合句际间和段际间的逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的词汇及句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型来提升文章的档次。
【点评】1. 本篇书面表达表达上要点齐全,上下文连贯,使用了一定数量的句式结构,让句子表达更加生动传神,同时使用了较多的高级词汇和固定短语,提高了文章的档次,体现了对英语书面表达熟练的驾驭能力。 例如:Hearing her sincere appreciation, Ben flushed, lowered his head and muttered a thank you. (运用了现在分词短语作状语); She also added that she was moved by how much the boy cherished the family possession. (运用了that引导的宾语从句);He did as he was told to, confessing that he was calm when facing the accident.(运用了as引导的方式状语从句,现在分词作状语以及that引导的宾语从句);After what seemed a long time, he looked up at his mother, admitted that it was not the cat but he that had broken the vase accidentally and asked for punishment.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及强调句);Feeling so ashamed, Ben couldn't hold back his tears.(运用了现在分词短语作状语)。
2. 读后续写步骤如下
(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,比如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此短文续写的具体要求,如字数限制、使用几处下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样考生能做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中划线的关键词语拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性、语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键词语。这一点可以帮助考生检查关键词语的使用情况并根据情况做出修改。最后在誊写文字时,务必做到"字迹工整、清晰"。
3. 在做此类试题时,读到适当的位置,可以短暂停顿,根据已读部分文章的脉络,对文章进行发散思维,设想可能的几种结尾;经常实施微型化训练,也就是对所读文章的某一段落进行设想。根据某段落的首句提示,结合文章的上文对该段进行合理设想,推断该段可能要讲述的内容。

(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China's Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds wandering through the water. "I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings," Ma recalls. He was later informed that birds were flamingos, a rare sight in China, which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature's red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings frominterfering with the wildlife. "The birds are attracted by the good environment," Ma says. "I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year."
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometers and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began attaching greater importance to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development center was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. "The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected," says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was employed by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. "The lake's ecology is getting better," Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. "Some of them are my old friends", he says.
4.Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day
A.To serve as a keeper of the lake.
B.To observe the rare flamingos closely.
C.To admire the scenery around the lake.
D.To come across the flamingos again.
5.What does the underlined phrase "interfering with" in para 2 probably mean
A.bringing benefits to B.losing control of

(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解It's a typical day at school. You're playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you're in the nurse's office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) that coming out of a...robot Has the nurse's office been taken over by sci-fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You've just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it's a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. "I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how."
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn't need to take vacations. It doesn't need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what's wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn't meant to completely take the place of humans, though. "It would work with real, live nurses and doctors," says Epstein, "there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who's hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient."
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. "Besides", says Epstein, "I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!" Would you
8.What's the function of para 1
A.To introduce a scientific study.
B.To lead to the topic of the text.
C.To describe an experience of the writer.

A.Humans are better at treating patients than AI doctors.
B.AI doctors alone can cure patients of most of the diseases.
C.Patients' trust in doctors may affect their treatments positively.
D.Patients may receive as much comfort from AI doctors as from humans.
10.What is true about AI doctors and nurses according to the text
A.They are better at trust-building.
B.They will take over humans.
C.Their biggest strength is being cool.
D.They are life-saving if properly used.
11.What's Epstein's attitude towards AI doctors and nurses!
A.Negative. B.Favorable. C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.
(2023高一下·绥宁期末) 阅读理解Yellow flower carpeted fields are a sure sign of summer. In Denmark alone, more than 200,000 hectares of rapeseed (油菜籽) are planted every year. But until now, the plant has only been used for oil and animal feed, as it is both bitter and unsafe as a direct food source for humans.
To protect themselves, the rapeseed plants produce a group of substances (物质) called glucosinolates(硫苷), which give the plants a strong and bitter taste that scares off insects and disease. As a result rapeseed is unhealthy to eat and the rapeseed cake, which is the remains of the seeds after the oil has been squeezed out, has only been used in limited quantities as feed for pigs and chickens, despite its 30—40 per cent protein content.
Now, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have discovered the three proteins that help to store the bitter substances in seeds of thale cress (阿拉伯芥), a plant closely related to the rapeseed. The new discovery makes it possible to prevent the accumulation (积聚) of these substances in the seed by removing the proteins through "transport engineering" technology. In doing so, the defensive substances remain in all other parts of the plant, allowing it to continue to defend itself.
So far, the researchers have shown that their method works in thale cress. "The next task is to apply our method to the closely related rapeseed plant, which we are now working on," says Professor Halkier, leader of the research.
"Half of plant proteins in the EU come from rapeseed plants. The climate crisis demands that we reduce meat consumption and eat more plants, which is where rapeseed has great potential as a new source of plant protein. Our latest research results bring us a step closer to making full use of rapeseed," says Professor Halkier.
12.What is the function of Paragraph 2
A.To state the reason. B.To offer the solution.
C.To give an example. D.To introduce the topic.
13.According to the research, how did scientists rid thale cress of its bitter taste
A.By selecting better seeds.
B.By removing the three proteins.
C.By increasing sweet tastes.
D.By storing defensive substances.
14.What do Halkier's words in last paragraph focus on
A.Researchers' efforts to better the taster.
B.Researchers' progress in their experiment.
C.Rapeseed's role in relieving climate crisis.
D.Rapeseed's potential as a new protein source.
15.Which of the following is a suitable title for this text
A.Harmful Proteins Discovered in Rapeseed
B.Rapeseed Widely Used as Oil and Animal Food
C.Researchers Closer to Making Rapeseed Safe Food
D.New Plant Proteins in Rapeseed Finally Uncovered
(2023高一下·绥宁期末)七选五Time is precious for students especially during finals. Having good skills of time management becomes so important. But how can you manage your time

It took place in a teacher's family. One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living room after school when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf. The vase dropped to the floor and a large piece broke off. What made Ben more upset was that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique, which was handed down through generations from the 18th century. It was also his mother's favourite possession. To cover his terrible action, the terrified boy glued the pieces together hastily and put the vase back to its place.
As the mother herself dusted the vase every day, she naturally noticed the cracks(裂纹)that evening. To her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Fearing punishment, the suddenly inspired boy said that a neighbour's cat jumped in from the window and he couldn't drive it away no matter how hard he tried. It raced around the living room and finally her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned. However, in the face of her son's nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members, Ben's mother remained calm. She realised she shouldn't just simply blame and punish her son for lying. She came up with another idea.
Before going to bed, the boy found a note from his mother in his room, asking him to go to the study at once. The boy thought he would now be punished but, as he had already lied, he was determined to deny everything to the end, no matter how angry his mum became.
In the study, calmly bathed in the light, his mother's face showed no sign of anger. On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter, she took a box of chocolates out of a drawer and gave him one.
The mother said, "This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat!"
Now with some chocolates in his hand, the boy's bad attitude disappeared.

42.句意:死去的植物和动物被分解得更快。分析句子可知,此处应使用谓语动词,主语"Dead plants and animals"和动词短语"break down"为被动关系,结合上下文的一般现在时可知,此处使用一般现在时的被动语态结构,主语为复数意义,故填are broken。
43.句意:这些营养物质很快就会被深埋在地下的植物根部吸收。分析句子可知,此处为动词短语take in"吸收",满足句意要求,故填in。
44.句意:结果,森林里的大部分营养物质都被植物锁在里面,从而使它们以令人难以置信的速度生长。根据句意可知,此处为反身代词themselves"它们自己",作为plants的同位语,plants themselves意为"植物本身",满足句意要求,故填themselves。
45.句意:结果,森林里的大部分营养物质都被植物锁在里面,从而使它们以令人难以置信的速度生长。根据句意的需要可知,此处为believable的反义形容词unbelievable"令人难以置信的"作定语修饰speed,满足句意要求,故填unbelievable。

47.【答案】One possible version:
The mother said, "This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat! "Hearing her sincere appreciation, Ben flushed, lowered his head and muttered a thank you. Surprisingly, the mother took out another chocolate and pressed it into his hand. "This one is for the delicate repair work you did to the broken vase. "She also added that she was moved by how much the boy cherished the family possession. At these hearty remarks, Ben felt a flow of shame through his veins, and had to duck his head even lower. The mother then calmly encouraged Ben to reward himself with more chocolates for other merits he had displayed in this event. He did as he was told to, confessing that he was calm when facing the accident.
Now with some chocolates in his hand, the boy's bad attitude disappeared. His palm and forehead sweating, nervousness welled up inside him. After what seemed a long time, he looked up at his mother, admitted that it was not the cat but he that had broken the vase accidentally and asked for punishment. "I'm sorry I lied to you, Mum. Please take back the chocolates." Feeling so ashamed, Ben couldn't hold back his tears. He opened his palm wide, ready to return the chocolates. To his surprise, however, his mother placed the whole box of chocolates in his hand, smiling. "Honesty deserves the best reward, my dear."
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,该篇记叙文以事件为线索展开,讲述了一个叫作本的男孩把妈妈的古董花瓶打碎了,他为了推脱责任撒谎骗妈妈,但是在妈妈的启发之下勇敢地承认了错误的故事。段落续写:1. 由第一段首句内容"母亲说:"这巧克力是对你想象力的奖励:一只打开窗户的猫!""可知,第一段可描写母亲通过启发的方式让孩子承认错误。2. 由第二段首句内容"现在,手里拿着一些巧克力,男孩的坏态度消失了。"可知,第二段可描写本在母亲的起发下勇敢地承认了错误。续写线索:发现撒谎——谈话启发——本很感动——承认错误——获得谅解。写作时要注意准确运用时态,上下文意思要连贯,符合句际间和段际间的逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的词汇及句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型来提升文章的档次。
【点评】1. 本篇书面表达表达上要点齐全,上下文连贯,使用了一定数量的句式结构,让句子表达更加生动传神,同时使用了较多的高级词汇和固定短语,提高了文章的档次,体现了对英语书面表达熟练的驾驭能力。 例如:Hearing her sincere appreciation, Ben flushed, lowered his head and muttered a thank you. (运用了现在分词短语作状语); She also added that she was moved by how much the boy cherished the family possession. (运用了that引导的宾语从句);He did as he was told to, confessing that he was calm when facing the accident.(运用了as引导的方式状语从句,现在分词作状语以及that引导的宾语从句);After what seemed a long time, he looked up at his mother, admitted that it was not the cat but he that had broken the vase accidentally and asked for punishment.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及强调句);Feeling so ashamed, Ben couldn't hold back his tears.(运用了现在分词短语作状语)。
2. 读后续写步骤如下
(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,比如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此短文续写的具体要求,如字数限制、使用几处下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样考生能做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中划线的关键词语拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性、语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键词语。这一点可以帮助考生检查关键词语的使用情况并根据情况做出修改。最后在誊写文字时,务必做到"字迹工整、清晰"。
3. 在做此类试题时,读到适当的位置,可以短暂停顿,根据已读部分文章的脉络,对文章进行发散思维,设想可能的几种结尾;经常实施微型化训练,也就是对所读文章的某一段落进行设想。根据某段落的首句提示,结合文章的上文对该段进行合理设想,推断该段可能要讲述的内容。
