【答案】18.B
19.C
20.A
【知识点】独白
【解析】【原文】M: The Ministry of Education released a notice that restricts primary and middle school students from carrying mobile phones to school. The policy aims to improve students' focus on study and fight addiction to the Internet and games. According to a 2020 report by the China Internet Network Information Center, China had 175 million Internet users under the age of 18. This is worrying, as long-time use of smart phones harms children's eyesight, cervical vertebrae and even the brain, according to the World Health Organization.
So many schools have taken measures to limit students' phone use on campus now. Zhou Dandan, an English teacher in Beijing said, "Before the new regulation, many students played games during class. Most students lack self-discipline. Spending too much time on the phone will distract them and prevent them from learning." And Li Jisen, an 18-year-old student, agreed with the new policy.
However, Liu Yanping, the principal, said, "It's unwise to take a ‘one size fits all' approach. You can't simply cut students off from the Internet in the digital era." And Kathy Chen, a parent from Shanghai, allowed her daughter to take her phone to school. Chen said it's more important to cultivate kids' ability to self-manage and form good habits of phone usage.
As for me, I think all the arguments mentioned above are reasonable. I'm not sure what to say about this policy. If you want to know more about different opinions, please subscribe to our WeChat official account.
【点评】考查听力理解能力,首先看懂问题,然后根据问题在文中找出依据,选出正确答案。
18.问题:教育部发布的政策的目的是什么?根据"The policy aims to improve students' focus on study and fight addiction to the Internet and games. "该政策旨在提高学生对学习的关注度,并与网络和游戏成瘾作斗争。故选B。
19.问题:为什么 Liu Yanping 用批判的眼光看待这种做法?根据"You can't simply cut students off from the Internet in the digital era."在数字时代,你不能简单地切断学生与互联网的联系。可推知这种做法不能帮助孩子们很好地适应当今的社会。故选C。
20.问题:发言人对这项政策的态度是什么?根据" I'm not sure what to say about this policy. "我不知道该怎么说这项政策。可知他对这项政策的态度模棱两可,模糊不清,故选A。

(2024高二上·余姚期中)Having spent more than a decade on the dance floor, ROME — Niccolo Filippi, a 23-year-old Italian dance performer, recently decided to explore Chinese culture and its traditional dance forms and believes that this experience will not only boost his career, but also broaden his horizons beyond the world of dance.
His interest in diversifying his skills grew after he stumbled upon a short video of traditional Chinese-styled dance on YouTube. "I saw it as an art that combines tradition and modernity, which was mostly the reason why I liked it," says Filippi.
Ever since, he has been closely following Chinese dance performers and watching numerous videos to learn more about the traditional style that he admires. "I prefer the traditional style because of its light movements. It also reflects my personality with elegance," he adds.
Filippi's chance came when he was invited to perform for a Chinese New Year celebration in the central Italian city of Florence. He has since fully committed himself to the art form, learning several pieces and putting his newfound passion into practice.
"The biggest difference that I found (compared to other disciplines) is the change of mood and emotional expressions among dances," says Filippi, adding that he needed to shift from the dynamic moves of hip-hop to the graceful and fluid movements of Chinese dance. Despite various obstacles, Filippi's efforts have not gone unnoticed. Two of his friends shared videos of his performances on social media, and the response was overwhelming. One video garnered 500,000 views, while the other received 200,000 views.
Filippi believes that learning about different cultures is priceless, and he sees it as a means of personal growth. "I like to think of a person as a book," he says. "Embracing different traditions and cultures, such as Chinese culture and many others, is like adding new chapters to my book, making it more diverse and wonderful."
24.What is the main reason why Filippi falls in love with traditional Chinese dance
A.Its potential to boost his career.
B.Its mix of traditional and modern elements.
C.Its graceful and light movements.
D.Its true reflection of his elegant personality.
25.How does the author illustrate the popularity of Filippi's videos
A.By listing numbers. B.By giving an example.
C.By sharing a story. D.By making a comparison.
26.What can be inferred from the last paragraph

(2024高二上·余姚期中)Mosquitoes carry malaria (疟疾), which kills thousands of people each year. Now some researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into partners in the fight against the disease.
For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling mosquito populations. "But that approach is temporary," says Anthony James, a professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, "Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound."
Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria.
To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It's passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. "If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease," he says. But making mosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.
To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR. They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria, engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.
It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host.
James' team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be conducted on an island or in another isolated location.
But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists. "There's no need to engineer a mosquito," says Dana Perls, senior program manager for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗) against the disease. "Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can't be recalled once it's released into the wild " she asks.
28.What can we know from the second and third paragraphs
A.Mosquitoes reproduce quickly.
B.Mosquitoes depart from malaria.
C.Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.
D.Mosquitoes' populations are under control.
29.According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria pathogen
A.Mice. B.Parasites.
C.Mosquitoes. D.Gene-edited mosquitoes.
30.What is environmentalists' attitude toward this new approach
A.Tolerant. B.Favorable. C.Objective. D.Disapproving.
31.What is the best title for the text
A.Limiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito Populations
B.Controlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes' genes
C.Curing Malaria with Gene-edited Mosquitoes
D.Preventing Malaria with a new vaccine
【答案】28.A

28.细节理解题。根据第二段"Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound. (因为蚊子是非常顽强的小昆虫,它们的数量可以迅速回升)"可知,蚊子的繁殖速度很快。故选A。
29.细节理解题。根据第四段"The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It's passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. (疟疾病原体是一种生长在人体内的寄生虫。它通过蚊子在人与人之间传播,吸血)"以及"If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease (如果我们能让蚊子难以让病原体存活,我们就能消灭这种疾病)"可知,蚊子能吸引疟疾病原体。故选C。
30.观点态度题。根据最后一段"But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists.(但是,改变野生动物的基因并不受环保人士的欢迎)"和"Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can't be recalled once it's released into the wild (为什么要冒不必要的风险,释放一个一旦被释放到野外就无法召回的物种 )"推知,环保人士对改变蚊子基因来消灭疟疾的方法是反对的。故选D。
31.标题选择题。根据第三段"Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria. (因此,詹姆斯和他的同事们想尝试一种不同的方法:让蚊子自己成为抗击疟疾的战士,这与控制疟疾的传统方法完全不同)"以及倒数第三段"It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host. (事实证明,经过基因编辑的蚊子产生的抗疟疾抗体效果非常好。它们减少了蚊子体内寄生虫的数量,然后将它们传给人类宿主)"可知,本文主要介绍科学家想通过编辑蚊子的基因来控制疟疾。故B项"Controlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes' genes (通过编辑蚊子基因控制疟疾)"可作为本文的最佳标题。故选B。
六、D
(2024高二上·余姚期中)One day I typed into ChatGPT all about my upset feelings and it instantly responded, offering a list of practical advice. Nowadays million pens of people are already turning to ChatGPT and specialist therapy (治疗) chatbots for convenient and inexpensive men al health support.
Some experts say this is a boon. After all, AI, undisturbed by embarrassment, might be able to express empathy (同理心) more openly and tirelessly than humans. But others worry about the consequences of people seeking emotional support from machines that can only pretend to care. Some even wonder if the rise of so- called empathetic AI might change the way we interact with one another. Indeed, empathy is one of our species' defining qualities, developing as it did in pace with social interaction.
One recent analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies published between 1980 and 2019, which shows that the empathizer must first be able to recognize how the other person is feeling. They must also be affected by those emotions and distinguish themselves and the other person, grasping that the other person's feelings aren't their own while still being able to imagine the other person's experience.
On the first point, in recent years, AI- powered chatbots have made progress in their ability to read human emotions, most powered by large language models (LLMs) that work by predicting which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. In this way, LLMs like ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings and respond appropriately most of the time. But when it comes to the other criteria, AI still misses the mark in many ways. Empathy is interpersonal, with continued feedback helping to perfect the sympathizer's response, which also requires some degree of intuitive (直觉的) awareness of an individual and their situation.
All of this helps to explain conversations like the ones I had with ChatGPT. At the end of the day, despite talking to multiple chatbots online, I did what I knew I had to do all along: I picked up my phone and called a friend.
32.What does the underlined word "boon" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Challenge. B.Misunderstanding.
C.Trap. D.Blessing.
33.What does the recent analysis show about empathy
A.It starts with identifying emotions.
B.It relies on rich imagination.
C.It requires clear communication.
D.It ignores individual difference.
34.What can AI do according to paragraph 4
A.Recognize one's real desire.
B.Provide data- driven response..
C.Solve all the emotion puzzles.
D.Predict one's behavior by intuition.
35.What does the author think of ChatGPT
A.Its development should be sped up.
B.Its intelligence is winning more favor.
C.Its application should be strictly managed.
D.Its artificial kindness is no match for humans'.
【答案】32.D
33.A

【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;细节理解题;说明文;社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人们现在越来越倾向于使用ChatGPT和专业的聊天机器人来获取方便且低成本的心理支持。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题,推理判断题和词义猜测题三种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时,从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时,要根据题干中的关键词,找准相关句、段的内容,再仔细对照,不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除,反之,则是正确选项。做推理判断题时,要求考生不能凭主观臆断推测或妄加猜测,必须忠实于原文,以材料所提供的相关事实和线索为依据,使做出的推理合乎文意。需要注意:审清题目要求;锁定关键信息;挖掘隐含信息;排除干扰选项;把握语境情感;逻辑推理分析。词义猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的能力,突出考查对语境的分析和把握能力。常见的猜词法有:利用上下文语境。猜测任何词义都离不开上下文,所以要借助上下文对需要猜测的词或短语进行合乎逻辑的推测。 利用定义或解释性的线索。阅读文章中的有些生词往往在其后会有对该词进行解释说明的短语或句子,利用它们猜词义较容易 利用文章的逻辑关系答题。如并列、对比、因果、转折关系等。
32.词义猜测题。根据第二段"Nowadays million pens of people are already turning to ChatGPT and specialist therapy (治疗) chatbots for convenient and inexpensive menal health support. (如今,数以百万计的人已经转向ChatGPT和专家治疗聊天机器人,以获得方便和廉价的心理健康支持。)"以及"After all, AI, undisturbed by embarrassment, might be able to express empathy (同理心) more openly and tirelessly than humans. (毕竟,不受尴尬干扰的人工智能或许能够比人类更公开、更不知疲倦地表达同理心。)"可知,一些专家说找ChatGPT和聊天机器人聊天是一种福音,因为机器人能更公开、更不知疲倦地表达同理心。划线词与Blessing意思相近。故选D。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段"One recent analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies published between 1980 and 2019, which shows that the empathizer must first be able to recognize how the other person is feeling. They must also be affected by those emotions and distinguish themselves and the other person, grasping that the other person's feelings aren't their own while still being able to imagine the other person's experience. (最近一项关于同理心的分析研究了1980年至2019年发表的52项研究,这些研究表明,同理心者必须首先能够识别对方的感受。他们还必须受到这些情绪的影响,并将自己和他人区分开来,在理解他人的感受不是自己的同时,仍然能够想象他人的经历。)"可知,最近的分析表明,同理心从识别情绪开始。故选A。
34.细节理解题。根据第四段"On the first point, in recent years, AI- powered chatbots have made progress in their ability to read human emotions, most powered by large language models (LLMs) that work by predicting which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. In this way, LLMs like ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings and respond appropriately most of the time. (关于第一点,近年来,人工智能驱动的聊天机器人在阅读人类情绪的能力方面取得了进展,其中最大的动力是大型语言模型LLMs,该模型通过基于训练数据预测哪些单词最有可能一起出现。通过这种方式,像ChatGPT这样的LLMs似乎可以识别我们的感受,并在大多数时候做出适当的反应。)"可知,AI能够提供数据驱动反馈。故选B。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段"All of this helps to explain conversations like the ones I had with ChatGPT. At the end of the day, despite talking to multiple chatbots online, I did what I knew I had to do all along: I picked up my phone and called a friend. (所有这些都有助于解释我与ChatGPT的对话。在一天结束的时候,尽管我在网上和多个聊天机器人聊天,我还是做了我知道我一直必须做的事情:我拿起手机给一个朋友打了电话。)"可知,作者还是更依赖人类进行交流,因此,AI人为的善良是无法与人类匹配的。故选D。
七、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
36.(2024高二上·余姚期中)Holidays abroad are easier than ever thanks to smartphones. With the autumn weather fast approaching, it's the perfect time of year to jet off and get away from hustles and bustles. Here are some top tips to make sure you're not caught out on your break abroad.
Treat yourself to a power bank
The batteries inside our phones are typically designed to last for around a day of moderate usage. So you're going to want some extra support so you don't end up going AWOL (absent without leave) when your phone dies. That's why I recommend picking up a USB power bank, which will give you a little bit of extra juice to keep you connected to the rest of the world.
Enable Data roaming (漫游)
The good news is that it is easier than ever to stay connected to the net when abroad. Make sure you check with your network provider what your roaming plan is. In many countries it is straightforward to buy a SIM card for a local network, with a much more generous data allowance. If you've got a newer phone, it will probably support "eSIM" — where you can simply use an app like Holafly or Airalo while connected to wifi to set yourself up on a new network temporarily.
Download offline application software
And finally, you need to get your apps in order. Once you reach your destination you'll need a mapping app, and maybe even a translation app — Apple and Google make their own version of both. And modern translation apps are particularly exciting. Then you get a clear translation. Make sure that all of the critical data is downloaded so that apps work offline and you can travel the world like a local. Bon voyage!
A. What good is a phone without Internet access
B. You simply wave your phone at the scanner instead.
C. In fact, you may not even need a physical card anymore.
D. Why do you need to get your phone ready to be connected
E. But when you're away from home, you're probably using it so much more.
F. You can typically just wave the camera of your phone over pretty much anything.
G. But before leaving for the airport, ensure your phone is ready for the journey ahead!

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国流行街头早餐煎饼的历史、制作特点及国际传播情况。【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及介词,名词,宾语从句,副词,状语从句,连词,非谓语动词,冠词,形容词,时态,语态以及主谓一致等多个知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。语法填空实用解题策略如下。一、分析句子结构。在面对语法填空题时,首先要做的是分析句子的结构。观察句子中的主语、谓语、宾语等主要成分,以及是否有从句、非谓语动词等复杂结构。通过理解句子结构,可以更好地把握填空处所需的词性和功能。二、确定词性变化。根据句子结构和语境,确定填空处所需的词性。然后,根据语法规则,考虑所需的词性是否需要进行变化,如名词的单复数、动词的时态和语态、形容词和副词的比较级和最高级等。确保所填词汇在语法上与句子其他部分相匹配。三、牢记固定搭配。英语中存在大量的固定搭配和短语,这些搭配在语法填空题中经常出现。因此,需要牢记常见的固定搭配和短语,以便在解题时能够迅速识别并正确填空。四、注意时态语态。时态和语态是英语语法填空的重要考点。在解题时,要注意根据句子的语境和上下文,判断所需动词的时态和语态。同时,也要注意时态和语态的一致性,确保所填词汇与句子的时态和语态相符。五、理解上下文语境。语境对于语法填空题的解答至关重要。通过理解句子的上下文,可以更好地理解填空处所需的词汇和语法结构。因此,在解题时,要仔细阅读句子的前后文,把握句子的整体意义,以便更好地填空。
52.句意:每个社区都有自己的煎饼摊贩,从黎明到中午供应早餐,满足上班路上饥饿的当地人。此处表示"从......到......",from...through...,固定搭配,符合语境。故填from。
53.句意:每个社区都有自己的煎饼摊贩,从黎明到中午供应早餐,满足上班路上饥饿的当地人。local, 形容词(当地的,本地的;局部的;(计算机)本地的),名词(当地人,本地人;当地居民)。空处在句中作现在分词satisfying的宾语,此处泛指多个当地人,表示复数意义,应用其复数形式。故填locals。
54.句意:与你可能认为的不同,煎饼并不是一种即拿即走的街头早餐。空处在句中引导宾语从句,且在宾语从句中作宾语,指物,应用连接代词what引导宾语从句。故填what。
55.句意:但总的说来,煎饼是一种值得等待的早餐。basic, 基本的/基础的/首要的/主要的,形容词。空处在句中作状语修饰整个句子,空处表示"基本上",basically,副词,符合语境。故填basically。
56.句意:人们认为它起源于三国时期山东省,当时军事家诸葛亮让士兵们把盾牌支在火上烹饪食物。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the Three Kingdoms Period,先行词在定语从句中作时间状语,应用关系副词when。故填when。
57.句意:人们认为它起源于三国时期山东省,当时军事家诸葛亮让士兵们把盾牌支在火上烹饪食物。hold, 拿着/握住/持有/拥有/举行/举办,动词。空处为非谓语且在句中做后置定语修饰名词shields,动词hold与其逻辑主语shields构成逻辑上的被动关系,故空处应用过去分词作后置定语。故填held。
58.句意:复制这道菜的部分挑战在于,煎饼的配方因地区而异,甚至因供应商而异。 空处特指复制煎饼这一过程中的挑战,应用定冠词the。故填the。
59.句意:许多人认为没有几个月的练习和大师的指导,自己制作煎饼是不可能的。possible,可能的,形容词。空处在句中作宾语补足语,用以描述宾语it的特征,空处表示"不可能的",impossible,形容词,符合语境。故填impossible。
60.句意:然而,一些坚定的外国人成功做到了这一点,他们在20世纪80年代首次在中国品尝煎饼后受到了启发,将煎饼带给更多渴望尝试的食客。inspire,鼓励/激励/启发,动词。根据时间状语in the 1980s可知,空处应用一般过去时,动词inspire与其主语who构成被动关系,应用被动语态,句中who引导非限制性定语从句,指代先行词foreigners,谓语动词应用复数形式。故填were inspired。
61.句意:在英国,Mei Mei's Street Cart的双胞胎老板梅丽莎和奥利弗·傅,尽管他们在完善技艺方面遇到了诸多困难,但仍将煎饼的乐趣首先带到了伦敦,现在又带到了曼彻斯特。perfect, 形容词(完美的,理想的;完全的,十足的),动词(使完善,使完美),名词(完成时)。空处应用动名词形式作介词in的宾语。故填perfecting。

【答案】范文
The Scientist I Admire Most
Dear fellow students,
Today, I'm honored to introduce the scientist I admire most — Yuan Longping.
Known as the "father of hybrid rice", a pioneer in agriculture, Yuan Longping worked tirelessly and selflessly his entire life in the battle against food poverty, feeding millions of people both at home and abroad.
What impresses me most about Yuan Longping is his dogged determination and profound humility. Faced with technical obstacles and questions from the scientific community, Yuan remained steadfast in his pursuit, successfully developing the first hybrid rice in the world. His innovation brought him great celebrity and money. However, Yuan Longping, despite receiving numerous awards, still considered himself a farmer, bending down to work the land. He even made large donations to support agricultural research.
Needless to say, Yuan Longping's life serves as an inspiration to us all, reminding us of the power of dedication and the precious virtues of modesty.

十一、第二节:(满分25分)
63.(2024高二上·余姚期中)阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Ava, a fifth-grader, longed for a cell phone like her peers but had to wait until she was thirteen. To persuade her parents, she penned an essay, demonstrating she was mature enough for a cell phone. Her parents, impressed, gave her an old phone.
"Ava," her dad said seriously, "a cell phone isn't just for fun and games. It's a significant responsibility. You must keep your phone secure. You must silence it in public spaces. You must..." He listed all of the ways that she had to be responsible with her phone. But Ava, too busy with choosing the perfect wallpaper, downloading apps, and chatting with her best friend Sarah, only half-listened.
Over the weekend, Sarah's mom took the girls to a movie. Normally Ava avoided horror films, but Sarah's pleading words with funny memes (表情包) had somehow convinced Ava that the movie might actually be enjoyable. Before the movie started, Sarah's mom instructed the girls to silence their phones out of respect for others. As the movie's tension built, Ava found herself growing increasingly uncomfortable. "I need to go to the bathroom," Ava whispered to Sarah.
After the movie, while waiting for Sarah's mom to fetch the car, Ava felt a sinking feeling. "I can't find my phone!" she shrieked, patting down all of her pockets. Panic-stricken, Ava searched her bag, yet her phone seemed to have vanished. Ava got into the car, her stomach in knots.
"Are you going to tell your parents " Sarah whispered to Ava on their ride back. Ava was silent, her mind racing with the consequences. She could envision her parents' disappointed faces and harsh words. She feared that this incident might lead to her parents taking away the privilege of having a phone altogether.
As they arrived, Ava climbed out of the car and trudged home, her heart heavy with what had happened.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150 个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The moment Ava walked in, her parents greeted her with a smile. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then her parents drove Ava back to the cinema. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The moment Ava walked in, her parents greeted her with a smile. She knew she had to tell them about the lost phone, but words stuck in her throat. Recalling the trust they had put in her with the phone, Ava felt a pang of distress as she prepared to confess. "I…I've lost my phone." she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper. Her father's brow furrowed. "Did it perhaps fall from your pocket during the movie Or could it have… " Her mother inquired anxiously. When Ava admitted that, in her panic, she had forgotten to go back and search properly or ask for help, her parents exchanged a silent glance. "Accidents happen." Her father assured her. "We'll figure this out together."
Then her parents drove her back to the cinema. They went to the reception desk and asked the cinema staff for help. It turned out that someone had turned the phone in to the front desk. They took the phone back. With a voice choked by emotion, Ava apologized to her father, "I know I messed up, Dad." Placing a hand on her shoulder, her father told Ava that maturity wasn't just about having a phone or not, but about how she handled situations, especially when they went wrong. "It comes along with a sense of responsibility. Remember to be responsible for your phone!" Her mother added, putting the phone back into Ava's hand. As she held the device, she felt the familiar weight, a weight more significant than before.
【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,该篇记叙文以人物为线索展开,讲述了五年级学生Ava渴望拥有一部手机,并在十三岁时终于得到了父母的许可。然而,她在初次使用手机时并未充分听取父亲的告诫,导致在一次外出看电影时遗失了手机。Ava非常害怕父母会因此对她失望并收回使用手机的特权,因此她在回家的路上心情沉重。段落续写:由第一段首句内容"Ava走进来的那一刻,她的父母微笑着迎接她。"可知,第一段可描写Ava回家后向父母坦白手机丢失的情景以及父母的反应。由第二段首句内容"然后她的父母开车送Ava回电影院。"可知,第二段可描写Ava的父母得知她丢失手机后,主动开车带她回到电影院寻找手机,并最终成功找回手机的经过。续写线索:Ava告诉父母自己丢了手机——父母询问——Ava承认没有回去找——父母安慰——父母帮忙找回手机——父母讲道理——感悟。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:She knew she had to tell them about the lost phone, but words stuck in her throat.

(2024高二上·余姚期中)Having spent more than a decade on the dance floor, ROME — Niccolo Filippi, a 23-year-old Italian dance performer, recently decided to explore Chinese culture and its traditional dance forms and believes that this experience will not only boost his career, but also broaden his horizons beyond the world of dance.
His interest in diversifying his skills grew after he stumbled upon a short video of traditional Chinese-styled dance on YouTube. "I saw it as an art that combines tradition and modernity, which was mostly the reason why I liked it," says Filippi.
Ever since, he has been closely following Chinese dance performers and watching numerous videos to learn more about the traditional style that he admires. "I prefer the traditional style because of its light movements. It also reflects my personality with elegance," he adds.
Filippi's chance came when he was invited to perform for a Chinese New Year celebration in the central Italian city of Florence. He has since fully committed himself to the art form, learning several pieces and putting his newfound passion into practice.
"The biggest difference that I found (compared to other disciplines) is the change of mood and emotional expressions among dances," says Filippi, adding that he needed to shift from the dynamic moves of hip-hop to the graceful and fluid movements of Chinese dance. Despite various obstacles, Filippi's efforts have not gone unnoticed. Two of his friends shared videos of his performances on social media, and the response was overwhelming. One video garnered 500,000 views, while the other received 200,000 views.
Filippi believes that learning about different cultures is priceless, and he sees it as a means of personal growth. "I like to think of a person as a book," he says. "Embracing different traditions and cultures, such as Chinese culture and many others, is like adding new chapters to my book, making it more diverse and wonderful."
24.What is the main reason why Filippi falls in love with traditional Chinese dance
A.Its potential to boost his career.
B.Its mix of traditional and modern elements.
C.Its graceful and light movements.
D.Its true reflection of his elegant personality.
25.How does the author illustrate the popularity of Filippi's videos
A.By listing numbers. B.By giving an example.
C.By sharing a story. D.By making a comparison.
26.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Filippi thinks little of learning from other cultures.
B.People prefer to write down their past experiences.
C.Accepting various cultures boosts personal growth.
D.A book with chapters on traditions is more wonderful.
27.What is the main idea of the passage
A.Chinese-styled dance videos go viral on social media.
B.An Italian's dance journey towards specialization starts.
C.Filippi's desire for Chinese culture extends beyond dance.
D.An Italian dancer shows passion for Chinese-styled dance.

(2024高二上·余姚期中)Mosquitoes carry malaria (疟疾), which kills thousands of people each year. Now some researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into partners in the fight against the disease.
For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling mosquito populations. "But that approach is temporary," says Anthony James, a professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, "Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound."
Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria.
To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It's passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. "If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease," he says. But making mosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.
To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR. They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria, engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.
It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host.
James' team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be conducted on an island or in another isolated location.
But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists. "There's no need to engineer a mosquito," says Dana Perls, senior program manager for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗) against the disease. "Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can't be recalled once it's released into the wild " she asks.
28.What can we know from the second and third paragraphs
A.Mosquitoes reproduce quickly.
B.Mosquitoes depart from malaria.
C.Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.
D.Mosquitoes' populations are under control.
29.According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria pathogen
A.Mice. B.Parasites.
C.Mosquitoes. D.Gene-edited mosquitoes.
30.What is environmentalists' attitude toward this new approach
A.Tolerant. B.Favorable. C.Objective. D.Disapproving.
31.What is the best title for the text
A.Limiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito Populations
B.Controlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes' genes
C.Curing Malaria with Gene-edited Mosquitoes
D.Preventing Malaria with a new vaccine

(2024高二上·余姚期中)One day I typed into ChatGPT all about my upset feelings and it instantly responded, offering a list of practical advice. Nowadays million pens of people are already turning to ChatGPT and specialist therapy (治疗) chatbots for convenient and inexpensive men al health support.
Some experts say this is a boon. After all, AI, undisturbed by embarrassment, might be able to express empathy (同理心) more openly and tirelessly than humans. But others worry about the consequences of people seeking emotional support from machines that can only pretend to care. Some even wonder if the rise of so- called empathetic AI might change the way we interact with one another. Indeed, empathy is one of our species' defining qualities, developing as it did in pace with social interaction.
One recent analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies published between 1980 and 2019, which shows that the empathizer must first be able to recognize how the other person is feeling. They must also be affected by those emotions and distinguish themselves and the other person, grasping that the other person's feelings aren't their own while still being able to imagine the other person's experience.
On the first point, in recent years, AI- powered chatbots have made progress in their ability to read human emotions, most powered by large language models (LLMs) that work by predicting which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. In this way, LLMs like ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings and respond appropriately most of the time. But when it comes to the other criteria, AI still misses the mark in many ways. Empathy is interpersonal, with continued feedback helping to perfect the sympathizer's response, which also requires some degree of intuitive (直觉的) awareness of an individual and their situation.
All of this helps to explain conversations like the ones I had with ChatGPT. At the end of the day, despite talking to multiple chatbots online, I did what I knew I had to do all along: I picked up my phone and called a friend.
32.What does the underlined word "boon" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Challenge. B.Misunderstanding.
C.Trap. D.Blessing.
33.What does the recent analysis show about empathy
A.It starts with identifying emotions.
B.It relies on rich imagination.
C.It requires clear communication.
D.It ignores individual difference.
34.What can AI do according to paragraph 4
A.Recognize one's real desire.
B.Provide data- driven response..
C.Solve all the emotion puzzles.
D.Predict one's behavior by intuition.
35.What does the author think of ChatGPT
A.Its development should be sped up.
B.Its intelligence is winning more favor.
C.Its application should be strictly managed.
D.Its artificial kindness is no match for humans'.

36.(2024高二上·余姚期中)Holidays abroad are easier than ever thanks to smartphones. With the autumn weather fast approaching, it's the perfect time of year to jet off and get away from hustles and bustles. Here are some top tips to make sure you're not caught out on your break abroad.
Treat yourself to a power bank
The batteries inside our phones are typically designed to last for around a day of moderate usage. So you're going to want some extra support so you don't end up going AWOL (absent without leave) when your phone dies. That's why I recommend picking up a USB power bank, which will give you a little bit of extra juice to keep you connected to the rest of the world.
Enable Data roaming (漫游)
The good news is that it is easier than ever to stay connected to the net when abroad. Make sure you check with your network provider what your roaming plan is. In many countries it is straightforward to buy a SIM card for a local network, with a much more generous data allowance. If you've got a newer phone, it will probably support "eSIM" — where you can simply use an app like Holafly or Airalo while connected to wifi to set yourself up on a new network temporarily.
Download offline application software
And finally, you need to get your apps in order. Once you reach your destination you'll need a mapping app, and maybe even a translation app — Apple and Google make their own version of both. And modern translation apps are particularly exciting. Then you get a clear translation. Make sure that all of the critical data is downloaded so that apps work offline and you can travel the world like a local. Bon voyage!
A. What good is a phone without Internet access
B. You simply wave your phone at the scanner instead.
C. In fact, you may not even need a physical card anymore.
D. Why do you need to get your phone ready to be connected
E. But when you're away from home, you're probably using it so much more.
F. You can typically just wave the camera of your phone over pretty much anything.
G. But before leaving for the airport, ensure your phone is ready for the journey ahead!

Ava, a fifth-grader, longed for a cell phone like her peers but had to wait until she was thirteen. To persuade her parents, she penned an essay, demonstrating she was mature enough for a cell phone. Her parents, impressed, gave her an old phone.
"Ava," her dad said seriously, "a cell phone isn't just for fun and games. It's a significant responsibility. You must keep your phone secure. You must silence it in public spaces. You must..." He listed all of the ways that she had to be responsible with her phone. But Ava, too busy with choosing the perfect wallpaper, downloading apps, and chatting with her best friend Sarah, only half-listened.
Over the weekend, Sarah's mom took the girls to a movie. Normally Ava avoided horror films, but Sarah's pleading words with funny memes (表情包) had somehow convinced Ava that the movie might actually be enjoyable. Before the movie started, Sarah's mom instructed the girls to silence their phones out of respect for others. As the movie's tension built, Ava found herself growing increasingly uncomfortable. "I need to go to the bathroom," Ava whispered to Sarah.
After the movie, while waiting for Sarah's mom to fetch the car, Ava felt a sinking feeling. "I can't find my phone!" she shrieked, patting down all of her pockets. Panic-stricken, Ava searched her bag, yet her phone seemed to have vanished. Ava got into the car, her stomach in knots.
"Are you going to tell your parents " Sarah whispered to Ava on their ride back. Ava was silent, her mind racing with the consequences. She could envision her parents' disappointed faces and harsh words. She feared that this incident might lead to her parents taking away the privilege of having a phone altogether.
As they arrived, Ava climbed out of the car and trudged home, her heart heavy with what had happened.

【知识点】独白
【解析】【原文】M: The Ministry of Education released a notice that restricts primary and middle school students from carrying mobile phones to school. The policy aims to improve students' focus on study and fight addiction to the Internet and games. According to a 2020 report by the China Internet Network Information Center, China had 175 million Internet users under the age of 18. This is worrying, as long-time use of smart phones harms children's eyesight, cervical vertebrae and even the brain, according to the World Health Organization.
So many schools have taken measures to limit students' phone use on campus now. Zhou Dandan, an English teacher in Beijing said, "Before the new regulation, many students played games during class. Most students lack self-discipline. Spending too much time on the phone will distract them and prevent them from learning." And Li Jisen, an 18-year-old student, agreed with the new policy.
However, Liu Yanping, the principal, said, "It's unwise to take a ‘one size fits all' approach. You can't simply cut students off from the Internet in the digital era." And Kathy Chen, a parent from Shanghai, allowed her daughter to take her phone to school. Chen said it's more important to cultivate kids' ability to self-manage and form good habits of phone usage.
As for me, I think all the arguments mentioned above are reasonable. I'm not sure what to say about this policy. If you want to know more about different opinions, please subscribe to our WeChat official account.

30.观点态度题。根据最后一段"But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists.(但是,改变野生动物的基因并不受环保人士的欢迎)"和"Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can't be recalled once it's released into the wild (为什么要冒不必要的风险,释放一个一旦被释放到野外就无法召回的物种 )"推知,环保人士对改变蚊子基因来消灭疟疾的方法是反对的。故选D。
31.标题选择题。根据第三段"Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria. (因此,詹姆斯和他的同事们想尝试一种不同的方法:让蚊子自己成为抗击疟疾的战士,这与控制疟疾的传统方法完全不同)"以及倒数第三段"It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host.

(毕竟,不受尴尬干扰的人工智能或许能够比人类更公开、更不知疲倦地表达同理心。)"可知,一些专家说找ChatGPT和聊天机器人聊天是一种福音,因为机器人能更公开、更不知疲倦地表达同理心。划线词与Blessing意思相近。故选D。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段"One recent analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies published between 1980 and 2019, which shows that the empathizer must first be able to recognize how the other person is feeling. They must also be affected by those emotions and distinguish themselves and the other person, grasping that the other person's feelings aren't their own while still being able to imagine the other person's experience. (最近一项关于同理心的分析研究了1980年至2019年发表的52项研究,这些研究表明,同理心者必须首先能够识别对方的感受。他们还必须受到这些情绪的影响,并将自己和他人区分开来,在理解他人的感受不是自己的同时,仍然能够想象他人的经历。)"可知,最近的分析表明,同理心从识别情绪开始。故选A。
34.细节理解题。根据第四段"On the first point, in recent years, AI- powered chatbots have made progress in their ability to read human emotions, most powered by large language models (LLMs) that work by predicting which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. In this way, LLMs like ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings and respond appropriately most of the time. (关于第一点,近年来,人工智能驱动的聊天机器人在阅读人类情绪的能力方面取得了进展,其中最大的动力是大型语言模型LLMs,该模型通过基于训练数据预测哪些单词最有可能一起出现。通过这种方式,像ChatGPT这样的LLMs似乎可以识别我们的感受,并在大多数时候做出适当的反应。)"可知,AI能够提供数据驱动反馈。故选B。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段"All of this helps to explain conversations like the ones I had with ChatGPT. At the end of the day, despite talking to multiple chatbots online, I did what I knew I had to do all along: I picked up my phone and called a friend. (所有这些都有助于解释我与ChatGPT的对话。在一天结束的时候,尽管我在网上和多个聊天机器人聊天,我还是做了我知道我一直必须做的事情:我拿起手机给一个朋友打了电话。)"可知,作者还是更依赖人类进行交流,因此,AI人为的善良是无法与人类匹配的。故选D。

The Scientist I Admire Most
Dear fellow students,
Today, I'm honored to introduce the scientist I admire most — Yuan Longping.
Known as the "father of hybrid rice", a pioneer in agriculture, Yuan Longping worked tirelessly and selflessly his entire life in the battle against food poverty, feeding millions of people both at home and abroad.
What impresses me most about Yuan Longping is his dogged determination and profound humility. Faced with technical obstacles and questions from the scientific community, Yuan remained steadfast in his pursuit, successfully developing the first hybrid rice in the world. His innovation brought him great celebrity and money. However, Yuan Longping, despite receiving numerous awards, still considered himself a farmer, bending down to work the land. He even made large donations to support agricultural research.
Needless to say, Yuan Longping's life serves as an inspiration to us all, reminding us of the power of dedication and the precious virtues of modesty.
Thank you for your listening. That's all.

63.【答案】The moment Ava walked in, her parents greeted her with a smile. She knew she had to tell them about the lost phone, but words stuck in her throat. Recalling the trust they had put in her with the phone, Ava felt a pang of distress as she prepared to confess. "I…I've lost my phone." she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper. Her father's brow furrowed. "Did it perhaps fall from your pocket during the movie Or could it have… " Her mother inquired anxiously. When Ava admitted that, in her panic, she had forgotten to go back and search properly or ask for help, her parents exchanged a silent glance. "Accidents happen." Her father assured her. "We'll figure this out together."
Then her parents drove her back to the cinema. They went to the reception desk and asked the cinema staff for help. It turned out that someone had turned the phone in to the front desk. They took the phone back. With a voice choked by emotion, Ava apologized to her father, "I know I messed up, Dad." Placing a hand on her shoulder, her father told Ava that maturity wasn't just about having a phone or not, but about how she handled situations, especially when they went wrong. "It comes along with a sense of responsibility. Remember to be responsible for your phone!" Her mother added, putting the phone back into Ava's hand. As she held the device, she felt the familiar weight, a weight more significant than before.
【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,该篇记叙文以人物为线索展开,讲述了五年级学生Ava渴望拥有一部手机,并在十三岁时终于得到了父母的许可。然而,她在初次使用手机时并未充分听取父亲的告诫,导致在一次外出看电影时遗失了手机。Ava非常害怕父母会因此对她失望并收回使用手机的特权,因此她在回家的路上心情沉重。段落续写:由第一段首句内容"Ava走进来的那一刻,她的父母微笑着迎接她。"可知,第一段可描写Ava回家后向父母坦白手机丢失的情景以及父母的反应。由第二段首句内容"然后她的父母开车送Ava回电影院。"可知,第二段可描写Ava的父母得知她丢失手机后,主动开车带她回到电影院寻找手机,并最终成功找回手机的经过。续写线索:Ava告诉父母自己丢了手机——父母询问——Ava承认没有回去找——父母安慰——父母帮忙找回手机——父母讲道理——感悟。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:She knew she had to tell them about the lost phone, but words stuck in her throat.
