二、阅读理解
This week on Ask a Teacher, we answer the following question from a listener.Dear teacher,
Could you please say more about the meaning of “appeal ”
Thank you.
Let’s look at the many ways we can use the word “appeal”.
As a verb, “appeal” means making a request, often in official situations. Generally, we do not use “appeal” for everyday requests. For example, we would not say:
I appeal to you to get some milk at the store.
Appealing
We can change the meaning of “appeal” by making it an adjective. One way to do this is to use the -ing ending. Consider the following examples:
Her dress looks really appealing.
That argument is appealing to many voters.
Used as a noun
“appeal” describes a formal or urgent request, for example:
The employees made an appeal to reduce the number of hours of work.
As a noun, “appeal” also describes a quality that creates interest, sympathy, or attraction. Here are some examples:
The museum’s design has a lot of appeal.
The appeal of that music is its simplicity.
Using“appeal”in the law
“Appeal” is also often used in legal matters — both as a noun or a verb. As a noun, it means a formal request to a court to review a decision by another court. If one court accepts the other's request, we can say the court “granted” the appeal. If the court rejects, we can say the court “denied” it.
The following example shows “appeal” being used as a verb in legal English:
The defense team will likely appeal the decision.
An adjective form of “appeal” is also used in the legal system. The adjective “appellate” describes a kind of court that deals with cases that have been appealed.
21．Which content is NOT mentioned about “appeal”
A．Its initial source and history. B．Its different parts of speech.
C．Its extensions and special uses. D．Its meanings and specific contexts.
22．How does the author develop the text
A．By making contrast. B．By giving examples.
C．By citing references. D．By providing a definition.
23．Where is the text probably taken from
A．An English-English dictionary. B．A guidebook on English grammar.
C．An English textbook on writing. D．A draft of an English lecture broadcast.
Today rocket launches and space missions are common. But in the early 1900s, space travel seemed like a dream. One of the most influential people in the field of rocket science was American Robert Goddard (1882-1945). The American space agency NASA describes him as “the father of modern rocket propulsion (推进)”.
Goddard once said that “the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow”. His scientific work gave hope to many dreams about space travel. He turned some of those dreams into reality.
Over one hundred years ago, Goddard carried out studies and tests of rocket engines. He developed and flew many rockets that got their power from solid fuels: chemicals that formed a hard substance. In 1925, he made and tested the first rocket engine using a soft chemical fuel. The next year, he successfully launched the world’s first liquid-fuel rocket.
Many historians consider liquid-fuel rocket flight to be as important as the first airplane flight by the American brothers Orville and Wilbur Wright. Goddard’s work proved that machines could travel outside of Earth’s atmosphere and into space.
During his early research, he received money and support from the US Smithsonian Institution. The Smithsonian published several reports about his efforts.
One publication in 1919, called A Method of Reaching Extreme Altitudes, wrote about his search for ways to send weather recording instruments higher than balloons could fly. It described how he developed the mathematical theories for rocket flight. In that report, Goddard also suggested the possibility of a rocket someday reaching the moon. At the time, there was a big dispute in the press about this claim. Many people thought he was foolish for suggesting something that seemed so impossible.
Many of Goddard’s ideas are still used in rocket development. So, in a way, every rocket that flies today could be considered a Goddard rocket.
24．What makes NASA highly praise Goddard
A．His various dreams and efforts. B．His first airplane experiment.
C．His rocket experiments and research. D．His rocket power theory and predictions.
25．What does the underlined word “dispute” in Paragraph 6 mean
A．Challenge. B．Breakthrough.
C．Disagreement. D．Inspiration.
26．Which can best describe Robert Goddard
A．Intellectual and creative. B．Adventurous but self-centered.
C．Cooperative but inefficient. D．Romantic and humorous.
27．What can we know about Goddard from the text
A．Many of his theories are still useful in developing rockets.
B．He made the first rocket engine in 1919.
C．His first book about his study was published in 1926.
D．He launched the world's first liquid-fuel rocket in 1925.
The bald eagle is a symbol of the US. An image of the bird is on the flag and seal (印章) of the US president, the seal of the US Supreme Court, military insignia, as well as the dollar bill. Even so, the bird has had its ups and downs. At one time, it was at risk of permanent (永久的) extinction. Later, however, its numbers recovered. In the early 2000s, the bird was removed from its endangered species list. Culturally, too, the birds are doing well again. In December 2024 before leaving office, Joe Biden signed legislation (法规) officially making it the national bird.
An insect-killing chemical called DDT played a major part in the long complex story of species weakness and recovery. Used to kill insects, DDT also proved harmful to eagle eggs. American officials banned DDT in 1972.But the use of the chemical had already caused severe damage to eagle populations. For example, in the 1980s there was only one nesting pair of eagles in New Jersey. Now, there are about 300 pairs.
To rebuild the number of eagles across the US, researchers wanting to save them imported the birds from places where their population numbers were secure, including Canada. Early on, they also removed eggs from their nests so they could safely hatch (孵化) with scientists before being returned to their parents to raise.
A lack of eagle habitat and prey (猎物) also threatens the species. Bald eagles feed heavily on fish, so they require clean, open water in which to hunt. Disease outbreaks are another serious threat to the birds.
The birds are highly respected by several Native American cultures as symbols of strength, especially in the Pacific Northwest. The position of eagles as symbols of the US adds to their protection.
Dan Day is a birder. He has seen bald eagles about 50 times in recent years both on nature walks and while driving around. He said, “It really elevates (提升) your day to see a bald eagle.”
28．What is Paragraph 3 mainly focused on
A．Specific measures to protect bald eagles.
B．Hatching techniques of bald eagles.
C．Protecting bald eagles through cooperation.
D．Early protection and growth of bald eagles.
29．Which is the threat bald eagles are currently facing in the US
A．The widespread use of DDT.
B．Illegal hunting by Native American.
C．Lack of prey and outbreak of diseases.
D．Severe environmental pollution in habitats.
30．What does the author convey in the last paragraph
A．Observing bald eagles is stressful.
B．The protection of bald eagles has shown results.
C．More people are paying attention to bald eagles.
D．Encountering a bald eagle is unexpected.
31．What is the best title for the text
A．The Bald Eagle Is a Much More Respectable Bird
B．The Past and Future of Bald Eagles in America
C．The Complex Process of Successfully Rescuing Eagles
D．Bald Eagles:Recovered,Officially US National Bird
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools that permit people to produce online reviews have put sellers, service providers and buyers in unfamiliar territory, public protection groups and researchers say.
False reviews have long appeared on many popular websites. The reviews are often traded on private social media groups between fake (假的) review dealers and businesses willing to pay. Sometimes, businesses get good reviews in exchange for offering buyers rewards such as gift cards.
The Transparency Company is a technology company and public protection group that uses software to detect fake reviews. The company said it started to see AI-generated reviews appear in large numbers in mid-2023. The reviews have increased quickly ever since.
Major companies are developing policies for how AI-generated content fits into their systems for removing fake reviews. Some companies already employ special programmes and investigative teams to find and remove fake reviews. Still, the companies are giving users some ability to use AI. The Coalition for Trusted Reviews, which Amazon, Trustpilot, Glassdoor, Tripadvisor, Expedia and launched last year, said that even though people may put AI to illegal use,the technology also presents “an opportunity to push back against those who seek to use reviews to mislead others”.
Tech companies, including Amazon, Yelp and Google, say their technology has blocked or removed a large number of suspect reviews and suspicious accounts. However, some experts say they could be doing more.
Consumers can try to find fake reviews by watching out for a few possible warning signs, researchers say. Overly good or bad reviews are suspect. Highly specialized terms that repeat a product’s full name or model number are another possible clue.
When it comes to AI, research done by Balázs Kovács, a Yale professor, has shown that people cannot tell the difference between AI-created and human-written reviews. Some AI detectors may also be fooled by shorter texts, which are common in online reviews, the study said.
However, there are some AI clues that online shoppers and service seekers should keep in mind. Reviews written with AI are often longer, highly structured and include “empty descriptors”. Empty descriptors include general phrases and attributes or characteristics. The writing also often includes overused phrases or opinions like “the first thing that struck me” and “game-changer”.
32．How does The Transparency Company find fake reviews
A．By appointing experts to the job.
B．By calling on volunteers to check them.
C．By offering users rewards.
D．By making the use of software.
33．What can be learned about major companies
A．People will not see fake reviews in their websites.
B．They think AI is useless to seek suspicious accounts.
C．Experts are satisfied with their reaction to suspect reviews.
D．They allowed users to take advantage of AI to some extent.
34．Which review could possibly be written using AI
A．Got it today, works fine for my needs.
B．Not bad, but the price is a bit high.
C．It’s an excellent product with great quality.
D．Stopped working after 3 days, don’t buy.
35．What is the main idea of the text
A．There is growing concern about false reviews.
B．AI tools are often used for faking product reviews.
C．We are living in a world that depends more on AI.
D．AI’s recent developments have got a lot of social attention.
The first response in any emergency is to provide the necessary first aid for the injured person while waiting for emergency medical services. First aid is used to help preserve the lives of victims in specific health emergencies. If left unattended, the victim could lose his/ her life. 36 .
For cuts and bleeding, the first step is to apply direct pressure to the wound using a clean cloth or bandage. 37 . If the bleeding is heavy, use a tight bandage only if nothing else works. And it should be applied with caution (谨慎) due to the risk of tissue damage.
If someone is unable to speak, cough, or breathe, immediate action is essential. For a conscious person, perform the Heimlich maneuver by standing behind him/her, placing your fist just above his/ her stomach, and delivering quick, upward push- ups until the object is forced out. 38 ; CPR is required for unconscious choking victims.
39 — Rest, Ice, Compression (压迫) , and Elevation. After resting the injured area and applying ice to reduce swelling, it’s important to provide additional support. Wrap the injured area with a bandage and keep it elevated.
40 . However, you wouldn’t be able to help the victim without the necessary skills. To be prepared for various emergencies and assist individuals with injuries or health crises, it’s essential to enroll in first aid and CPR certification courses.
A．In case of sprains, use the RICE method
B．Everyone should learn some basic first aid skills
C．You should first clean the wound with warm water
D．This can promote clotting (凝血) and stop the bleeding
E．Note that the Heimlich maneuver is only for conscious individuals
F．Different types of injuries and health emergencies require distinct first aid procedures
G．Whenever a loved one becomes a victim of these emergencies, you will do everything to save his/her life

六、书面表达
67．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。
On an early rainy November morning, the sky was still dark. Ed Coleman, a truck driver from Sapp Brothers Petroleum, was driving along his usual route in Papillion, Nebraska. He planned to finish his delivery tasks as usual, never thinking he would become a hero that day.
Suddenly, something unusual caught his eye on the road. Even though the rain blurred (使变模糊) his vision, he seemed to see a small figure standing on the median (隔离带). As a father of his own children, Ed felt a strong urge to check it out. He made a quick U-turn and drove back, only to find a 3-year-old boy standing there alone, looking scared and helpless.
It turned out that earlier, the boy’s grandfather had a sudden illness. The couple rushed him to the hospital in a hurry and accidentally forgot to lock the door properly. The little boy had woken up in the early morning and couldn’t find his parents. He quietly walked out of the house, hoping to look for them. Unfamiliar with the neighbourhood, he wandered along the road and accidentally walked onto the median. He was too frightened to move, so he just stood there in the cold rain.
Ed got out of his truck at once. At the same time, another witness who passed by also stopped to help. They called 911 immediately. To keep the boy warm, Ed carried him into his truck and wrapped him in a blanket given by the other witness. While waiting for the police, Ed played cartoon videos on his phone to calm the little boy down.
Ed said he had slightly diverted (改道) from his usual path that day. He couldn’t explain why he chose that way, but it was this small change that made him meet the boy in time. In an interview, he said he only cared about keeping the boy safe. Thinking of his own children, he couldn’t imagine leaving the boy there alone. His voice even trembled (颤抖) with emotion when he talked about it.
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。
Shortly after, the police arrived.

Li Hua
67．One possible version:
Shortly after, the police arrived. They gently lifted the shivering, tearful boy from Ed’s arms, his little hands still clutching Ed’s jacket. The police asked for detailed information about the rescue, and Ed told them everything he had seen and done. Thanks to the timely call, the police quickly contacted the boy’s parents, who were still anxiously searching for their child. The parents rushed over right away, tears of relief streaming down their faces as they hugged their son tightly. They thanked Ed repeatedly, but he just smiled and said it was what anyone would do.
Ten days later, Ed accepted the invitation to the boy’s home for dinner. The moment he stepped in, the little boy ran up to him and gave him a big hug, holding a handmade thank-you card. Delicious homemade dishes were laid out across the table, giving off inviting aroma. During the meal, the parents shared how they had been haunted by guilt, adding that the boy’s grandpa had recovered well after treatment. They were so grateful for Ed’s kindness. Ed said it was just a small detour that changed everything, and he felt happy to have helped the little boy stay safe.
