(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)(共15题;共30分)ADuring ancient times,children didn’t have smartphones,iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead,they came up with interesting games to play.★Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty,kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China,and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold.Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.In1999,the sport was included in the6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.★Flying kitesKites have quite a long history.The earliest kites were made of wood,instead of paper.Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite,Tianjin kite,Weifang kite and Nantong kite,of which each has distinctive features.The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.★Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children,popular around the nation.There are two ways to play:covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄)him or,more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.★Playing diabolosA diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center.By juggling(边抛边接)the diabolo on the rope,the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle.Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game,especially popular in North China.Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage.1．Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?A．To practice their feet B．To warm themselvesC．To train their skills D．To relax themselves.2．Which kites are swallow-shaped?A．Weifang kites.B．Tianjin kites.C．Beijing kites.D．Nantong kites.3．According to the passage,which one is a national intangible cultural heritage?A．Stone balls.B．Flying kites.C．Hide-and-seek.D．Playing diabolosBTechnology usually distracts us from nature.But now technology is“offering us an opportunity to listen to nonhumans in powerful ways,reviving our connection to the natural world,”wrote professor Karen Bakker in her new book,The Sounds of Life:How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants.All around the animal kingdom,there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and decipher.Elephants, for example,communicate with each other using infrasound,a sound frequency far below our human hearing range.Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves,with one purpose being to attract baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow.This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears!Scientists have placed listening devices in these environments to pick up sounds humans are normally unable to detect.After the sounds are recorded,AI is then able to determine their meaning,according to the news website Vox.There are now whole databases of whale songs and honeybee dances.Bakker wrote that one day this information could be turned into“a zoological version of Google Translate”.One animal language Bakker wrote about is that of the elephant.She explained how elephants“have a different signal for honeybee,which is a threat,and a different signal for human,”in an interview with Vox.“Moreover,they distinguish between threatening humans and non-threatening humans,”she said.This technology can not only understand the animals,but also communicate back to them.For example,bees use dances to communicate to their peers where to go in search of nectar.A research team in Germany,therefore,fed the bee language AI database system into a robot bee,allowing the robot to create a dance routine that can tell the bees which direction to move,Vox reported.Whereas in the past language creation had been limited to mainly apes,with there being many examples of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)having been taught sign language to communicate with humans,this new technology now allows humans to socialize with different animals throughout the animal kingdom.4．What does the underlined word“decipher”most probably mean in paragraph2? A．Understand.B．Hear.C．Produce.D．Record.5．What helps baby coral choose their home?A．Infrasound.B．Sounds within human range of hearing. C．Sounds through its ears.D．Sound waves.6．What can we infer from the passage?A．Bees used dances to warn their peers of danger.B．Human fed listening devices into coral to detect it.C．Elephants have different signals for different purposes.D．Elephants can tell whether there are threatening animals around.7．Why did researchers create the robot bee?A．To collect more bee dances.B．To convey direction to bees.C．To learn the language of bees.D．To help bees search for their friends.CWhen you are travelling in Thailand,which means of transport is the best choice?You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand.It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north.The most popular bikes are the little125cc Honda Dream which you can get for about150baht(铢)a day or as little as3,000baht per month,making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi.When you are in cities in Thailand,especially in Bangkok,always remember to get a taxi that is traveling on the roads.Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the meter(计程表).They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good,so renting cars is another way to get around.The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable price.It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West.Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand,more expensive than American prices,but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe.In the past,Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in—signs were generally in Thai (泰语)only,making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around.But now,the situation is improved.In a lot of places,even the farthest corners of the country,street signs are in both Thai and English.8．To a foreigner,the cheapest way to get around Thailand is renting a______.A．car B．taxi C．bike D．motorbike9．What is the writer's advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?A．To take a taxi going on the road.B．To take a taxi parked outside hotels.C．To make sure there is a meter in it.D．To bargain with the driver over the price. 10．Why was it difficult to drive in Bangkok in the past?A．Because there were too many traffic jams on the roads.B．Because there were no signs showing directions.C．Because the signs were written only in their own language.D．Because the quality of the roads was not good.11．In which part of magazine can this passage be found?A．Entertainment B．Tourism C．Market D．AdvertisementDWilliam I,who conquered England some930years ago,had wealth,power and an army.Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time,he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶)，or riding lawn mower(除草机).How did he get by?History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me.I have storm windows, Croesus did not.Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great,but he couldn,t buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people,you,d think I,d be content.The trouble is that,like most people,I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighbors,school classmates,famous TV people.The greed I feel toward my friend Howard,s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.’There is really no rising or falling standard of living.Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about.You,d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood,but no, we want a hot bath too.Of course,one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today,s standards the things I own are pretty nice.My house is smaller than the houses of many investments bankers,but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.Besides,to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future,these bankers,fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby.I can,t keep up with my neighbors right now.But just wait.12．What does the underlined phrase“get by”in the first paragraph mean?A．Succeed as a king.B．Deal with complaints.C．Live in s satisfactory way.D．Get some extra money.13．How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A．3.B．4.C．5D．614．According to the passage,the author.intends to.A．tell us to be content with lifeB．warn us to live in a simple wayC．teach us to learn lessons from lifeD．encourage us to struggle for wealth15．What,s the author,s attitude towards life?A．Doubtful.B．Optimistic.C．Uncaring.D．Cautious.二、阅读理解第二节七选五(5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)(共1题;共10分)Table manners are the ultimate way to show respect or some accidental disrespect to yourhost.___16___.In France,you are supposed to use two hands to eat—either fork and knife or fork and bread.Bread isn't meant to be an appetizer.___17___When you eat the bread,tear off a piece of it to eat instead of biting directly into the bread.When not in use,the bread belongs on the table or tablecloth instead of the plate.Finishing everything on your plate is a no-no in many Asian countries.___18___Leaving a small amount on your plate symbolizes that you've had your fill and acknowledges your host's generosity.___19___So,tipping,in their culture,is rude.Even if they don’t assume you’re being rude,they can

I was so embarrassed that I could not look at anyone as I walked by them on my way to school after that incident happened, feeling like it was my fault entirely for not walking fast enough to get out of the way of this person who was honking his horn at us for taking up part of "his" road space in what he considered an unsafe manner (not walking in the crosswalk).

2024年高考模拟考试英语试题2024.05第一部分阅读(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15 小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)AFor the 150th anniversary of the first Impressionist exhibition, the Musée d’Orsay, which houses the world’s largest collection of this current, is offering a major retrospective (回顾展) of this artistic trend with Paris 1874: Inventing Impressionism from March 26 to July 14.150 years ago, on April 15, 1874, in a luxurious photographer Nadar’s studio in northern Paris, Berthe Morisot, Edouard Degas and Claude Monet came together as a cooperative limited company to open the first Impressionist exhibition, a movement that would forever change the course of art history.The retrospective will take visitors on a virtual tour to the very moment 150 years ago. During the 40-minute immersive (沉浸的) tour, visitors will spend a virtual evening with the famous impressionists and travel by steam train to Bougival, west of Paris, where many of them worked. Visitors will then tour the main exhibition, which opens into a gallery with Renoir’s La Parisienne and La Danseuse that featured in the 1874 exhibition, and other impressionist paintings, drawings and sculptures.“The immersive experience is unique and innovative. You can go into this e xhibition and relive the evening with the artists and discover the origin of this movement. We want to recreate the emotion for visitors of the 1874 exhibition,” said Abastado, director of digital development at the Musée d’Orsay.Guidelines:* The experience is suitable for children of 11 y/o and above; children under 8 y/o are prohibited.*We remind you that, in view of the technology used, virtual reality experiences are not recommended for people with balance or vision disorders.*Walkers and motorized wheelchairs are not permitted in the space, but manual wheelchairs are accepted.1. What’s the retrospective mainly aimed at?A. Protecting cultural diversity.B. Fueling people’s love for art.C. Showing honor to late artists.D. Marking the birth of a movement.2. What can be experienced during the virtual tour?A. Painting a picture on the spot.B. Driving a steam train in person.C. Meeting famous impressionists.D. Staying overnight in the gallery.3. Who is the most suitable to visit the exhibition?A. An eight-year-old boy.B. An adult with a walker.C. A visually-challenged girl.D. A teenager in a manual wheelchair.BTravelling seemed like falsehood to me. I grew tired of backpackers expressing too much praise about how petting a baby elephant in Thailand “transformed” them. Globe-traveling to me held no more promise than finding a few bills in the pocket of an old coat. I needed something deeper than an Eat, Play, Love moment.One day, Vasilis, my Greek best friend, reminded me of our decade-old promise: after our final exams, I would visit his hometown in Athens. Maybe, it was time to make good on that promise.I finally boarded the plane. Vasilis picked me up at the airport. I smiled, thinking how improbable this moment seemed all those years ago.The decade-long wait proved to be well worth it. Every step through the ancient streets revealed new wonders. However, none of them truly mattered. What would forever alter my perception of travel was a chance encounter with a local.Vasilis and I were wandering Athens when a special sound caught our attention—a rhythmic clinking disturbing the quietness of the residential street. Curiously, we followed the sound to a humble workshop. Inside, a welder (焊工) gave no mind to our presence behind him. He wore no flashy protective suit—this was just another day for him, another dance with fire and metal that had become second nature. Under the sunshade, his orange cat rested in the comforting warmth...As the man continued welding, I felt a bit of envy. I envied his peace and contentment. I admired the simplicity he embodied（=showed）. I imagined the welder happy, finding fulfillment in his craft (手艺) and returning to his loving family.... The moment moved me to tears. Leaving the workshop, rain blending with tea rs, I realized how easily life’s poetry could pass unnoticed.Home again in Montreal, I stop simply pursuing better things, better experiences and better people that are never grasped. I realize the real journey is inward—to appreciate life’s ordinary magic. That sure beats petting any baby elephant. I may not have returned home “transformed,” but I’ll always think of the welder and his cat.4. Which aspect of travelling makes the author feel uneasy?A. Shortage of adequate funds.B. Discomfort in dietary habits.C. Overstatement of travel’s effects.D. Danger of petting baby animals.5. What drove the author to go to Athens?A. Meeting a commitment.B. Exploring a unique landscape.C. Receiving further education.D. Escaping from the current life.6. What does the underlined word “poetry” in paragraph 6 probably refer to?A. Poems written by masters.B. Peace and simplicity.C. Spirit of craftsmanship.D. Special sound in the street.7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A. Friendship Lasts ForeverB. Travelling Shapes a Better SelfC. Pursuit of Happiness Never StopsD. The Ordinary Makes ExtraordinaryCIn 2022, the Nature Conservancy launched two 5-year pilot projects at working ranches (牧场) in Kansas and New Mexico to determine if virtual fences enable land managers to better perform regenerative(再生的) management practices and to assess potential benefits for biodiversity and for ranchers(牧场主)’ bottom lines, as well as impacts on soil carbon storage.Applauded by the U. S. Department of Agriculture as a climate adaption strategy, virtual fencing is an innovative technology that enables ranchers to use a smartphone or web app to remotely monitor and control where and when cattle graze (吃草). Virtual fences can reduce the need for physical fences, which require significant time, expense and labor to maintain. Physical fences also limit land managers in their ability to change grazing boundaries to adapt to seasonal changes in vegetation or to exclude cattle from ecologically sensitive areas.The cows are outfitted（=equipped）with battery-operated, GPS-enabled collars that send out a radio frequency to communicate with reception towers, creating virtual grazing boundaries set by a rancher. When a cow approaches the edge of the virtual boundary, the collar produces a sound signaling it to turn around. If the cow proceeds to cross the boundary, it receives a momentary mild shock, signaling that it’s gone too far and should rejoin its group.Grasslands are the least protected habitat on earth and one of the most effective carbon sinks, storing up to 20% of the world’s soil organic carbon. Unfortunately, grasslands are continuing to rapidly disappear for several reasons. For ecological health, most grassland ecosystems need periods of disturbance to aerate (使透气) the soil, stimulate plant growth and recycle nutrients into the soil. Ranchers complete this disturbance-rest cycle by managing the timing, location, herd size and intensity of grazing activities, all of which can be time-consuming and painstaking.“Currently, the costs of virtual fencing are still high, but in the long run it can help land managers better carry out management practices that regenerate land health, help address climate change and biodiversity loss,” said William Burnidge, director of the Nature Conservancy.8. What’s stressed concerning virtual fencing in paragraph 2?A. Its smart design.B. Its major advantages.C. Its wide application.D. Its working principles.9. What does the mild shock indicate to the cow?A. It’s time to return.B. It’s time to graze.C. It’s in danger.D. It’s in a wrong direction.10. What’s unavoidable for ranchers to complete the disturbance-rest cycle?A. Intense efforts.B. Polluted soil.C. Financial failure.D. Ecological imbalance.11. What’s Mr. Burnidge’s attitude to virtual fencing?A. Intolerant.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Conservative.DOver the past few months, I’ve been invited to speak with well-known writers, musicians and film producers regarding my recent book, Extraterrestrial. Prior to these conversations, I was on the receiving (and admiring) end of their artistic work, but now they were curious about my own research as a scientist. The reverse led me to recognize the similarities between innovation in the arts and the sciences.In sciences and arts alike, creativity appears magically as an unpredictable fountain of inspiration from the subconscious (潜意识). Its unexpected content breaks routines within traditional thinking. It delivers something new that is distinct from common practices, often taking people out of their comfort zone because it is ahead of its time. As a result, many innovators are laughed at and denied the recognition they deserve when they need it the most.There are many examples of such circumstances. In 1933 Fritz Zwicky inferred the existence of “dark matter”, but it took four decades for this concept to gain recognition within the astronomy community. Vincent van Gogh was considered a madman and a failure throughout his life. Today, his paintings are among the most expensive ever sold, though.Typically, life offers two ways of acquiring objects. One is by collecting available items, and the other is by creating things that never existed before. Whereas most items on the shelves of supermarkets are mass-produced, products that are newly created by artists or scientists are originally unique. Just like aging wine, a product of creative work acquires quality over time. It is colored by the response of the audience as well as by imitations. The initial circumstances are a reminder of an admirable baby. It is fascinating for a scientist or an artist to watch the interaction of their creation with the world, just as it is for parents to watch their children.Creativity in arts and sciences establishes a backdrop（=background）for human existence, as the content it invents gives pleasure and meaning to our lives. The human act of creation is an infinite-sum game, from which all of us benefit. And we can all participate in the creative process.12. Which can best replace the underlined word “reverse” in paragraph 1?A. Priority.B. Assumption.C. Shift.D. Preference.13. What can best describe creativity in sciences and arts?A. It tends to be forecastable.B. It mirrors common beliefs.C. It usually leads the times.D. It enjoys instant acceptance.14. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A. Creative works withstand the test of time.B. Mass-produced items are preferable.C. Old wine can’t be put into new bottl es.D. Inventiveness starts from childhood.15. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To clarify a concept.B. To launch an appeal.C. To offer an entertainment.D. To advocate a lifestyle.第二节(共5 小题;每小题2.5 分,满分12.5分)Providing feedback(反馈意见) is an essential part of personal and career development. 16 One of the most effective and classic methods to make it easier for both the giver and receiver is the feedback sandwich technique, sometimes also referred to as a compliment (赞美) sandwich.If you are seeking to enhance your career growth, learning about the feedback sandwich can be a game-changer. 17 Rather than simply focusing on what went wrong, it ensures that the person receiving the feedback also knows what went well. The process can be broken into three parts. A manager or superior starts by providing positive feedback to encourage a person to continue their good work. Afterward, they communicate constructive feedback for the person to improve. This feedback aims to be specific, behavioral, and relevant to the situation. 18 The feedback sandwich technique is a highly useful method. It can help soften the blow of criticism. By starting and ending with positive feedback, it’s easier for the recipient（接受者）to receive the constructive criticism without feeling attacked. 19 As we all know, criticism is awkward, but when you’re giving potentially negative feedback, it’s easier when you’re also serving it up with two compliments. Additionally, it enables the meeting or an interaction to end ona positive note.20 Many people are knowledgeable about this technique, which might make it sound insincere or predictable if not done correctly. Also, when feedback becomes a routine, employees can start to perceive positive feedback as simply a form of sugarcoating the negatives, thus reducing its value. Hence, positive feedback should not simply be seen as something to cushion（=relieve）the negative, but should be delivered so as to reinforce(=enhance) and encourage good performance.A. It’s essential to be aware of its limitations, though.B. Similarly, it is also easier for the giver to offer feedback.C. The manager then ends the feedback session with positive feedback.D. The technique may lead to unclear and indirect personal communication.E. Delivering constructive criticism, however, can be challenging if not done correctly.F. It may not be for every situation, but it can make negative feedback more digestible.G. This technique involves using constructive feedback wrapped between two layers of positive feedback.第二部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15 小题;每小题1分, 满分15 分)I’d been exploring the 40-hectare woods around our cottage my whole life and I knew the way well.

The negative impact of social media on mental health has been well documented，with studies showing a direct correlation between frequent social media use and symptoms of anxiety and depression. As we become more reliant on social media as a primary means of communication，however，it is important to recognize that this convenience comes with a cost.One of the most significant dangers of social media is the constant need to seek approval from others. Social media users are constantly posting updates and photos to receive “likes”and positive feedback from their friends and family. This constant need for validation can lead to feelings of loneliness and inadequacy when one does not receive the desired response. Additionally，social media is designed to keep users engaged，which means that people often find themselves scrolling through newsfeeds for hours on end. This prolonged engagement not only impacts one’s productivity but also干扰one’s ability to disconnect and enjoy real-world activities. Furthermore，the constant comparison of oneself to others on social media can lead to negative body image and self-esteem issues.Perhaps most concerning，however，is the fact that social media is a breeding ground for online harassment and cyberbullying. With the ease of online anonymity，people feel free to say things they would never say in person，which can lead to highly abusive and destructive behavior. This type of behavior not only affects the victims but also creates a toxic environment for all users，leading to more negative and polarizing discourse online.In conclusion，while social media can be an effective tool for staying connected with others，it is important to use it responsibly and in moderation. Recognizing the potential harm it can cause to one’s mental health and avoiding its negative effects are crucial as we continue to integrate social media into our dly lives. Only through awareness and responsible use can we truly reap the benefits of this powerful platform while mitigating the risks involved.。

Life was simple, and I spent most of my time playing outside with my friends.One day, my father told me he had a secret. He showed me a small, oldbox and said, "This is a treasure chest. It holds all the secrets of the world." I was excited and asked, "Can I open it?" My father smiled and said, "Yes, but you have to promise to keep the secrets safe."I opened the box and found a piece of paper inside. It said, "The secret of happiness is to be grateful for what you have." I thought about this for a while and realized it was true. Since then, I have tried to liveby this secret.As I grew up, I moved to the city for college. Life was different there, and I met people from all over the world. I learned a lot aboutdifferent cultures and ways of life. One day, I met a man who was very wealthy. He had a big house, a fancy car, and lots of money. I asked him, "How do you find happiness?" He looked at me and said, "The secret of happiness is to be grateful for what you have."I was surprised because he had so much, but he still believed in the same secret. This made me think about my own life. I realized that happiness is not about how much money you have or what you own. It isabout being grateful for what you have and finding joy in the little things.Now, I am back in my hometown. I still remember the secret my fathertold me. I try to live by it every day. I am grateful for my family, my friends, and the simple life I have. I know that happiness is not just a feeling; it is a choice.三、阅读理解（共25小题，每小题2分，共50分）（一）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
