第一节 (共 11 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 27.5 分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A

Since sugar is such a big part of the food we eat, people may wonder if some types of sugar are better for us than others. Let’s look at some common sweeteners to find out. White Sugar

White sugar is also called table sugar because it’s often on tables at homes and restaurants. Because it goes through the most processing, it has the least nutritional value of all the sugars we

consume. As it is being refined (提纯) , the sugar loses its minerals along with any natural color it had. During the refining process, thick, brown liquid known as molasses (糖浆) is produced. Brown Sugar

Brown sugar is essentially white sugar with some of the molasses added back in. Although the molasses contains some nutrients, the amount added is not enough to be of much benefit to people. 2

Black Sugar

Some people believe black sugar, which originated in Okinawa, Japan, is more nutritious than brown sugar. With black sugar, sugarcane is boiled until it turns into a dark sauce, which is then cooled and formed into solid chunks. Thus, black sugar keeps its molasses content. Honey

Honey is another common type of sweetener that people use, with many believing it is the healthiest option because it comes from bees and is therefore more natural. There is truth to that belief, but despite having more nutritional value, too much honey can still be harmful to one’s health. The main point seems to be that people should control their intake of sugar as much as possible. 23.Which type of sugar contains the least nutrition

A. White Sugar B. Brown Sugar C. Black Sugar D. Honey 24.What makes honey a better choice A. Its natural color. B. Its refining process. C. Its source. D. Its place of production. 25.What is the purpose of the text A. To advertise different kinds of sugars. B. To introduce the making process of sugar. C. To persuade people to control sugar intake. D. To recommend suitable sugars to people. B

Madison stared through the window and watched a puffy white cloud pass over the woods across from the school. It must be wonderful to be a bird, she thought. Total freedom. No math class to sit in, and her days would be spent on horseback. She thought of her horse, Star.

“Madison. Could you please join us again ” Mrs. Smith said. “I was just asking the class if anyone had any problems with the homework assignment.”

“Well, I didn’t have any problems doing it, but I had problems remembering to put it in my school bag after I did it.” Some giggling spread through the room.

“Madison. I don’t know what I am going to do with you. You’re

such a smart girl but you just don’t apply yourself. Class, clear your desks. Our guest is here and welcome Doctor Landon. He is a veterinarian (兽医). He came here today as part of our continued Career 3

Explorations Program.”

Madison tried to focus as Doctor Landon talked about how important grades were and how he struggled with math when he was a kid. Doctor Landon was still talking but she lost track of what he was saying. Then a word caught her attention. Horse. Was he talking about horses

Gradually, Madison knew Doctor Landon had come to her town and house when her horse, Star, needed care. She liked it that he even knew her horse’s name. “So, you just travel around and take care of horses all day long ”

Doctor Landon nodded. “I travel with my truck to take care of horses and ponies across the county. It is a lot of work, but I love it.” Madison’s mouth fell open. What a life that must be, she thought. At that moment, sitting in class, Madison could see her future and her life suddenly seemed bigger. By the time she got off the bus that afternoon, her plans for the afternoon had changed. She was still going to ride Star, but first she was going to spend an hour

studying math. Then tomorrow she’d spend an hour studying science.

26. Why was Madison called by Mrs. Smith in class A. Because she had problems with math. B. Because she was absent-minded in class. C. Because she was distracted by the birds outside. D. Because she forgot to bring her homework back. 27. Why was Doctor Landon invited to the class A. To call for care for animals.

B. To enrich students’ outdoor activities. C. To emphasize the importance of study. D. To help students with their career choices.

28. What can be inferred about Madison from the last paragraph A. She was greatly inspired. B. She preferred math to science. C. She didn’t believe Landon’s story. D. She changed her hobby completely.

29. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text A. An Exciting Horse Riding B. An Interesting Math Class C. Madison Dreams Big D. Madison Pursues Freedom 4 C

With nearly a quarter of global greenhouse gas coming from all types of transportation, can we keep ourselves offgas-powered vehicles to avoid the worst effects As more governments push for urgent action on climate change, quite a few companies are betting their future — that millions of consumers are finally ready for electricity-powered vehicles. Modern battery-powered cars are selling fast and zero-emission ( 排 放 ) planes are coming. These changes, both leading to a more sustainable future, are reinventing how we get from here to there.

Cars and trucks are undergoing their greatest improvement since the automobile’s (汽车) existence more than a century ago. Almost overnight, the era of the electric car has arrived. Electricity has the advantage that it works without smell and with less noise. Global annual sales of electric vehicles are expected to soar from just over 3 million today to 14 million by 2025. Just a month after Ford unveiled an electric version of the popular F- 150, customers had reserved more than 100,000 of them. The price is about $10,000 above the gas-powered one, but Ford says the electric model will cost much less to maintain. Everything creating a green revolution on the ground is of limited help in the sky for the time being. High-storage batteries are useless at present when it comes to the technological challenge of launching a few hundred people into

the sky and carrying them thousands of miles. No battery yet invented can power, say, a Boeing 747 from New York to London. Promising improvements, however, do add up. Developments with zero-emission, battery-powered electric engines are already happening in commercial flight, involving trips of limited duration and distance. Airlines specializing in short journeys with small planes will lead the way to electric flight.

Our planet’s health depends on zeroing out carbon dioxide emissions by 2050, and yet, by the timetable needed to address the climate challenge, the shift away from gas-powered vehicles remains far too slow. Nevertheless, the train has left the station. Someday, electric-powered transportation will be as common as air. 30. Why are many companies switching to electricity-powered vehicles

A. To reinvent the way we travel. B. To cut the costs of car production.

C. To improve the quality of products. D. To pursue sustainable development.

31. What do we know about the electric car

A. It came into use a century ago. B. It enjoys increasing popularity. 5

C. It sells better than the traditional one. D. It costs less than the

gas-powered one.

32. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3 A. To show the disadvantages of battery power. B. To emphasize the significance of short flights. C. To stress the future prospects of electric planes. D. To state the developments of commercial flight.

33. What does the author mean by saying “the train has left the station”

A. Train transportation has improved. B. Green transportation is on its way. C. The electric train is running regularly. D. The gas-powered train has become the past.

第二节 七选五 (共 5 小题，每题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多 余选项。 The Power of 10 Minutes

How can we find ourselves with extra two hours It probably comes in short little bursts of 5 to 10 minutes. Maybe you're early to your school. 34 Instead of jumping on social media, you can actually use those little breaks to do something productive. Strengthen relationship

In college, you’ll be eager to call your parents every single night.

Besides, you know it’s necessary to stay in touch with your friends. A phone call doesn't have to last an hour to get in some good conversation. A 5-minute’s call is enough. An email is even quicker. 35 .

Strengthen body

36 Or a few stretches (伸展运动) can give your back a break from desk and chair. A few minutes of exercise goes a long way. Why not make full use of the breaks between classes to get actively involved in exercise Your body will thank you. Refresh yourself

Sometimes we’re so busy that our lives are in a mess, with piles of books on our desks, clothes everywhere on the floor at our dorms. We usually think it a waste of time cleaning up, therefore let them be. 37 And keep it up everyday, you’ll be amazed to find your life organized and get yourself refreshed. 6

Be more productive

B. Maybe you have 5 minutes for We chat. C. Instead, begin with a 5-minute’s tidying up.

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。

As a single mother, I’ve never doubted my daughter Jane’s dream to be a singer on the stage. At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people

around 9

attracted to her songs.

Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing.

Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me.

It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary.

That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be

fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks.

After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us. 注意:

In order to maintain our well-being and all-round development,

the Student Union of our school conducted a series of activities concerning adolescent mental health in our school on February13. On Monday afternoon, several famous psychologists were invited to deliver speeches, who gave very specific and practical advice on various concerns that young people are concerned about, such as how to deal with family relationship, relieve study pressure and plan for the future. The experts also spared some time to give students one-on-one interviews on their personal issues.

Many students expressed their appreciation about the activities as they have acquired a completely new perspective towards their life. “Awesome! More similar activities are anticipated to be held in the future,” commented a student from Grade 3. 读后续写

One day, however, Mary came with good news. She told Jane the school music festival was to be held the next month and that her classmates all expected her to sing on behalf of her class. “Really ” Jane exclaimed with excitement but immediately with her head drooping, she murmured, “I’m afraid I’m not competent for it.” Perceiving her hesitation and lack of confidence, Mary and I said some encouraging words and persuaded her to sign up for it. In the following month, Jane engaged herself wholeheartedly in practising singing, beautiful songs echoing in our house again.

Under Mary’s guidance, she made rapid progress and her

confidence was also building up. Days ticking by, finally the big day came when Jane would give her singing performance on the stage. When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. Nervous as she was, she tried to collect herself and stay focused. As she began to sing, the audience got enchanted with her charming voice. Seconds after her performance, all the audience rose with thunderous applause and cheers. No sooner had Jane been wheeled off stage than she was surrounded by her excited classmates and teachers with bunches of flowers in hands. She was so moved that she uttered in a trembling voice, “Without your support and encouragement, I wouldn’t make it today.” With moist eyes, she threw her arms tightly around Mary, words failing her at that very moment. It was Jane’s persistent efforts and strong faith that paved the way for realizing her dream. 五校联考（2023.4）——高二英语参解析 Part B Role Play(角色扮演)
