Dear Ted,
I'm Li Hua, and I'm honored to represent my school in the "Telling Chinese Stories in
English" speech - contest in Luzhou. Knowing you were a judge in the last - term competition, I
sincerely hope you can offer me some guidance.
I was wondering if you could spare some time at 3:00 p.m. next Friday in the school hall. As
for the content, it would be great if you could help me polish my story - telling skills, such as
pronunciation, intonation and body language. Also, some advice on selecting suitable Chinese
stories would be highly appreciated.
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Mom drove Lorena to Fashion Fair and left, asking her not to waste money. Lorena
immediately dived into the crowd, her eyes scanning every jacket - displayed corner. She rushed
from one store to another, but none of them seemed to meet her needs. Some were too expensive,
while others had an ugly design. Just as she was about to give up, a jacket in a small store caught
her eye. It looked extremely similar to Eddie's. With a pounding heart, she tried it on. Perfect!
Without hesitation, she paid for it with her life - savings. Holding the new jacket, she felt a bit
relieved, yet still a little nervous about facing Eddie.
Lorena was about to leave when she saw Eddie in his jacket. Her heart skipped a beat.
Gathering her courage, she walked towards him and said, "Eddie, I'm so sorry. I thought I'd lost
your jacket." Eddie smiled and said, "It's okay! Mr. Smith, our biology teacher, found it in the
biology room and returned it to me. Thanks for keeping it for me that day." Lorena was overjoyed.
All her guilt vanished in an instant. They chatted for a while, and Lorena couldn't help laughing at
herself for worrying so much. With a light - hearted mood, she headed home, looking forward to a
new day.泸州高中2025年春期高2024级半期考试 英语试题

Nicholas Sparks is an American novelist known for his best-selling tales of romance (浪漫)and
heartbreak.
Sparks grew up mainly in north-central California,where his family moved when he was eight.
He attended the University of Notre Dame on a track scholarship,but an injury ended his athletic career and led him to write his first unpublished novel.In 1988,he graduated with a major in business and held a variety of jobs.In the early 1990s,he and his wife,Cathy Cote,settled in North Carolina,which later provided a setting for his novels.
While working his day job,Sparks continued to write.He cooperated with former Olympic runner Billy Mills on Wokini:A Lakota Journey to Happiness and Self-Understanding.The book, which was inspired by a Native American legend,was published in 1990.Determined to become a professional writer,Sparks spent several months working on The Notebook,his first published novel, which hit The New York Times best-seller list immediately after it reached the public in 1996.By the time the film adaptation was released in 2004,Sparks had published seven more novels.
Although Sparks's fiction usually involves love stories,he rejects the suggestion that he is a "romance novelist".His supporters agree that Sparks explores more-serious subject matter,such as loneliness,sadness,and loss,and that many of his books feature less-than-happy endings.That is also evident in his only nonfiction work,Three Weeks with My Brother,in which he and his brother, Micah,share their own emotional responses to the deaths of their parents and sister.
Sparks has devoted much of his time and literary profits to writing programs at Notre Dame and to charitable causes,most notably the Nicholas Sparks Foundation,which he and his wife established in 2011.
24.What led Sparks to write his first novel
A.A scholarship. B.His marriage.
C.An accident. D.His major.
25.What do we know about The Notebook
A.It arrived in cinemas in 2004.
B.It was written by two authors.
C.It became a hit due to a report.
D.It was Sparks'nonfiction work.
26.Why isn't Sparks a romance novelist
A.His stories have nothing to do with love.
B.He prefers to record real events in lives.
C.His books never end with happiness.
D.He pays attention to various themes.
27.Which words can best describe Sparks
A.Lucky and careful. B.Tough and caring.
C.Honest and brave. D.Tolerant and calm.

If you're daydreaming about future travels while stuck at home,why think about the beaches of Ball or the canals of Venice when vacationing in space could be in your future
Back in 2019,Californian company the Gateway Foundation released plans for a hotel that could one day float above the Earth's atmosphere.This futuristic (未来派的)concept was scheduled to be completely operational by 2027.
Now the hotel,Voyager Station,is set to be built by Orbital Assembly Corporation,a new construction company run by former pilot John Blincow,who also heads up the the Gateway Foundation.
In a recent interview,Blincow explained that there had been some delays due to force majeure (不可抗力),but construction on the space hotel is expected to begin in 2026,and a hotel in space could be a reality by 2027."We're trying to make the public realize that this golden age of space travel is just around the corner.It's coming.It's coming fast,"said Blincow.
Space tourism is becoming an increasingly hot topic,and there.are several companies trying to make it happen—from Virgin Galactic to Elon Musk's SpaceX.The team behind Voyager Station have said they're hoping to eventually make a stay at the hotel equal to “a trip to Disneyland”.They are also hoping to build research stations and spark(激发)space tourism and commerce opportunities. They imagine the government or private companies might use the space hotel for training crews heading to the moon,Mars and beyond.
The eventual goal,as the team put it in 2019,is to create a starship culture where people are going to space,and living in space,and working in space.And they believe that there's a demand for that.
28.What can we learn about the space hotel from the text
A.Its construction has already begun.
B.It is in great demand worldwide.
C.It can float to the moon,Mars and beyond.
D.It has been delayed due to some reasons.
29.Who will possibly use the space hotel for training
A.Some universities. B.The Gateway Foundation
C.The government. D.Orbital Assembly Corporation
30.What do John Blincow and his team aim at
A.Exploring outer space. B.Building a spaceship culture.
C.Opposing space tourism. D.Competing with other companies
31.Which can be a suitable title for the title
A.First Ever Space Hotel Is Coming B.There Is a Place like No Other
C.Research Stations Are Getting Popular D.Human Explorations Are Endless

D
People's voices frighten wildlife even more than the snarls(低吼)of lions,suggesting that we are the scariest animals.Giraffes,elephants,and more than a dozen other species of animals in a South African wildlife reserve ran away from loudspeakers twice as often when they heard the sounds of humans compared with those of lions,found by a study led by Michael Clinchy at the University of Western Ontario in Canada.
"This is a protected area,so these animals should not be fearful of us,"he says."But whether you're a wildlife tourist,or a poacher(盗猎者),or whatever,you're all going to be seen as the same thing.The presence of the human is equally dangerous,regardless of what type of human you are."
Clinchy and his colleagues had already discovered that the fear of predators(捕食者)can cause species to decline in number.Wanting to find out which was the most feared,the team decided to test humans against lions often seen as the world's most fearsome predator on land,says Clinchy.
They set up loudspeakers and cameras on trees 10 meters away from animal paths near 21 waterholes in Greater Kruger National Park,South Africa,which hosts one of the largest remaining lion populations in the world.When animals approached the waterholes,the speakers immediately played back one of four kinds of recordings,all at the same volume.These included men and women speaking calmly in local languages,lions snarling,gun shots with or without barking dogs and the calls of regional birds.
The researchers captured 15,000 videos of 19 species of animals reacting to their recordings.
They found that wildlife except lions ran around in response to human voices more than to any other sounds,and were also 40 percent quicker to escape.
The findings highlight the damaging impact that our presence could potentially be having significant ecological(生态的)results.Even so,the findings could lead to positive outcomes as well. Human voices might prevent wildlife from entering crop fields or farms.
32.Why are some animals fearful of human beings
A.Human beings are the strongest.
B.Human beings make them out of water.
C.Human beings may have caused great damage.
D.Human beings can make the loudest voice in the world.
33.What can be inferred about Greater Kruger National Park
A.There are many lions there.
B.There are 21 waterholes there.
C.It is easy to set up loudspeakers there.
D.It is easy to record the local people's activities.
34.Which animal responded to human voices least
A.Elephants. B.Giraffes. C.Lions. D.Dogs.
35.What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A.The advantages of human voices to animals.
B.The damaging impact of human presence.
C.The significant ecological results of human voices.
D.The impact and possible application of human voices.

People hate packaging.And,yes,there's a lot of bad and wasteful packaging out there.
36 When it comes to protecting and dispensing(分发)food,the right package can greatly reduce waste.Here are a few examples.
●Packaging keeps the meat fresh.
We throw away a fifth of the beef we buy—the equivalent(等量)of 8 million cows each year —often because it goes bad before we cook it.The solution 37 Case-ready packaging can lengthen that shelf life to up to 21 days.If the meat you bought isn't going to be eaten within a few days,case-ready packaging is the better choice for the environment.
38
This dairy waste can be avoided with packaging technology such as Tetra Pak(利乐包装纸盒), which is commonly used in Europe and Asia to keep milk from spoiling,even without refrigeration. Recycled or not,Tetra Pak is a good environmental bet because it can lengthen the shelf life of milk up to nine months. 39 Once again,the environmental benefit of the food-protection technology outweighs the harmful impact of the packaging itself.
●Packaging Fixes Sticky Situations.
40 One example of waste-reducing packaging is the concept project shown from designer Drew Stanley.He designed a peanut butter jar made of a soft material which can be turned inside out and scraped(刮掉)clean,avoiding sticky food sticking to your fingers.
A.Packaging protects milk.
B.Using Tetra Pak packaging.
C.But packaging isn't always the enemy.
D.We should pay attention to the rubbish produced by packaging.
E.Scientists have developed packaging that can keep refrigerated meat fresh for weeks.
F.It can reduce the need for refrigeration and the amount of milk that goes wasted.
G.Food left behind in jars and bottles makes up a surprising amount of waste.

Lorena parted the curtain in her living room and looked out onto the wet street.She was relieved the sunlight appeared.If it didn't stop raining,it would ruin her day.Her mother had promised to drive her to Fashion Fair if it were sunny.Lorena was desperate to go there because she had to replace a jacket.
Earlier that Wednesday afternoon,Eddie,the most popular seventh-grader,had given Lorena his jacket and asked her to keep an eye as he would play basketball in a hurry.Lorena was quite happy to be of help.
During her last class,the biology teacher made them cut apart dead frogs.For fear of getting blood on Eddie's jacket,Lorena folded it and placed it on a chair.Then she took the knife and cut the skin quickly.She felt sick opening the frog's belly.
When the bell rang Lorena hurried out because the bus she caught for home left ten minutes after school.She raced to board the bus and found a seat.After a few minutes the driver started the engine and drove away when Lorena looked out of the window and saw Eddie."The jacket!"she screamed. She shot from her seat and ran up to the driver,"You've got to stop!I forget Eddie's jacket!”"Who's Eddie I don't know,no Eddie,"the driver said angrily.“Sit down.”
All that evening she was upset and blamed her biology teacher for her problem.If he hadn’t made them dissect(解剖)frogs,she wouldn't have been absent-minded.The next day Lorena rushed from the bus to the biology room.The jacket was not there!
"How can I ever tell Eddie "she closed her eyes.She spent most of her break and lunch period in the restroom,brushing her hair and worrying.On Friday she stayed home to avoid Eddie.She told her mother she wanted to go shopping to buy her a gift for her birthday,which was the next week.Actually,she also wanted to buy a new jacket with her life savings at Fashion Fair.
