第一節
The person I respect
There are many respectable people around us. They may be our teachers, parents or one of our elders. As for me, my father is the person I respect most. My father is a teacher who loves his work and his students very much. He works very hard every day but he will also spare some time to accompany me and share many funny things with me about his work. When I come across the problems of learning in my study, my father will listen to me patiently and encourage me to overcome the difficulties bravely. He achieved a lot in his work, respected by his students. So, in my mind my father is the person I respect most and I love him deeply.
第二節
Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and started planning. Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of the Internet. “Maybe we can write an article to arouse people's awareness.” Maria proposed. “Good idea! We can also make a video!" Peter added. The next few hours witnessed their heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and beautiful coast. The next day, they went to the beach and filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach and floating in the sea. Peter, who was good at writing, wrote an article talking about the present situation of the beach and asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous, they posted the video and article on WeChat. To their amazement, their post went viral online immediately. Countless comments flooded in saying how heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and ocean. What amazed Maria and Peter more was that numerous people in their community, encouraged by their efforts, offered to join in their clean-up. More and more people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags. A year later, with their joint and continuous effort, the coast regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-awaited pleasure.

第二部分：閱讀
第一節
A
【導語】本文是一篇應用文。文章介紹了四個藝術展覽的時間，地點，主題以及門票等信息。
21．細節理解題。 根據I’M NOT A TROPHY中的“This art exhibit is committed to global awareness and prevention of poaching and trophy hunting ( 偷 獵 和 戰 利 品 狩 獵) of endangered species such as elephants, lions, and rhinos. (這個藝術展覽致力于提高全球對大象、獅子和犀牛等瀕危物種的偷獵和戰利品狩獵的認識和預防。)”和Address: Markowicz Fine Art Gallery (地址：Markowicz Fine Art Gallery)可知如果你想了解野生動物，應該去Markowicz Fine Art Gallery，故選D。
22．細節理解題。 根據CAROL BOVE: COLLAGE SCULPTURES中的“Admission: Adults: $10; Children under 12: FREE (門票：成人：10美元；12歲以下兒童：免費)”可知如果一對夫婦想和他們10歲的女兒一起去看Carol Bove的雕塑，他們應該付10美元*2=20美元，故選C。
23．細節理解題。 根據VAN GOGH: THE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE中的“Time: 10:00 am - 10:00 pm Daily between Oct. 9 and Nov. 28 (時間：10月9日至11月28日每天上午10:00至晚上10:00)”故選D。
B 24-27略
C
【導語】本文是一篇說明文，主要講述了音樂對學生有諸多好處，應該成為學校課程的一部分。
28．細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions.(如果學生們有一些音樂經驗，他們會聰明得多。他們可以提高課堂技能，比如專心聽講和聽從指示。)”和“Making music also lets children use their imagination.(制作音樂也能讓孩子們發揮想象力。)”可知，音樂能夠提升課堂技能和想象力，這讓學生變得更聰明。故選B。
29．短語猜測題。instead of表明前后之間是相反的情況，畫線詞前“Parents can enjoy listening to their children’s music”說父母可以聽孩子演奏音樂，結合畫線詞后的“a computer or TV screen”可知，這里是說有了音樂后父母就不用看到孩子盯著電腦或電視屏幕看。glued to表示“目不轉睛地看”，與unwilling to leave(不愿離開)意思最接近。故選C。
30．主旨大意題。第三段第一句“Music builds self-confidence, too.(音樂也能建立自信。)”是本段主旨句，本段主要講述了音樂可以幫助孩子們建立自信。故選D。
31．主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是第一段第一句“The arts, especially music, should be part of every school’s lessons at every grade level.(藝術，尤其是音樂，應該成為每個學校各個年級課程的一部分。)”和最后一段最后一句“That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.(這就是為什么每個學校的每個年級都應該提供音樂。)”可知，音樂對孩子有很多好處，學校有必要把音樂當作課程的一部分。故A項“音樂是學校的必修課”為最佳標題。故選A。
D
【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了一只在塔斯馬尼亞被貼上標簽的長鼻海狗，25年后突然在維多利亞出現，引發了人們對這種動物在野外能存活多久的重新思考。文章介紹了這只長鼻海狗的一些相關情況以及數量恢復情況。
32．細節理解題。根據第三段中“Scientists used to think the animals can live for at most 19 years, but this sighting of the fur seal 25 years after it was marked provides exciting new knowledge about the longest lifespan for wild fur seals in Australia.(科學家們過去認為這種動物最多能活19年，但這只長鼻海狗在被標記25年后再次出現，為我們提供了關于澳大利亞野生長鼻海狗壽命最長的令人興奮的新知識)”可知，知道這只海狗后，官員們認為它們的壽命比人們曾經認為的要長得多。故選D。
33．句意猜測題。根據第三段中“We see a lot of old male fur seals that are past their best years of health and move along the Tasmanian coast as they reach their end of life”以及“Unlike others, it may continue to live in good health for years to come.”可知，他說看到很多年老的雄性海狗已經度過了它們最好的健康歲月，在它們生命的盡頭沿著塔斯馬尼亞海岸移動，但這只長鼻海狗與其他動物不同，它可能會在未來幾年繼續健康地生活。所以可見這只海狗的身體狀況仍然很好。故意思是“這只長鼻海狗的身體狀況仍然很好”。故選A。
34．細節理解題。根據倒數第二段中“The Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment said long-nosed fur seals were once close to complete disappearance due to the fur trade in the 1800s.(塔斯馬尼亞初級工業、公園、水和環境部表示，由于19世紀的皮毛貿易，長鼻海狗一度接近完全消失)”可知，被人類過度捕殺幾乎導致了長鼻海狗的完全消失。故選B。
35．推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“But the number of this species is recovering fast. Now the total population in Tasmania is 4,000 to 4,500. About 1,000 baby seals are born annually there now. Australia-wide, the population is about 58,000.(但這個物種的數量正在迅速恢復。現在塔斯馬尼亞的總數量是4000到4500只。現在那里每年大約有1000只小海豹出生。全澳大利亞的長鼻海狗數量約為5.8萬)”可推知，作者認為現在長鼻海狗的情況還有希望。故選B。
第二節
【導語】本文是說明文。介紹了一些讓人停止咬指甲的建議。
36．根據前文“Nail biting (咬指甲) usually begins in childhood and can continue through adulthood.(咬指甲通常始于兒童時期，并可能持續到成年)”以及后文“It can also cause possible bacterial infection in your nail beds and mouth.(它還可能導致指甲床和口腔的細菌感染)”可知，前文是介紹咬指甲的習慣，后文講述咬指甲的壞處，所以空出應是過渡句，F項“But repeated nail biting can make the skin around your nails feel sore.(但是反復咬指甲會讓指甲周圍的皮膚感到疼痛)”承接上文 ，和上文構成轉折關系，并引出下文，符合文意。故選F項。
37．根據前文“Keep your nails short.(保持指甲短)”可知，本段主題是剪短指甲可以避免咬指甲，所以B項“Having short nails provides nothing to bite.(短指甲沒有什么可咬的)”是對前文的進一步解釋，其中short nails為同詞復現，符合文意。故選B項。
38．根據前文“Identify your triggers (誘因). These could be physical triggers, such as the presence of hangnails (逆刺皮), or other triggers, such as boredom, stress, or anxiety. By finding out the causes, you can know how to avoid these situations.(確定你的觸發因素。這些可能是身體上的觸發因素，比如有倒刺，也可能是其他的觸發因素，比如無聊、壓力或焦慮。通過找出原因，你可以知道如何避免這些情況)”以及后文“Just knowing when you ‘ re more likely to bite may help solve the problem.(只要知道你什么時候更容易咬指甲就能解決這個問題)”可知，本段主要講述找出誘使你咬指甲的原因，然后根據原因來解決它，所以C項“Accordingly, you can develop a plan to stop.(據此，你可以制定一個停止的計劃)”承接上文，下文是對本句的進一步解釋。故選C項。
39．分析設空位于段尾，是對前文的總結；根據前文“Replace the nail-biting habit with a good habit. When you feel like biting your nails , try playing with a stress ball or something else instead.(用一個好習慣取代咬指甲的習慣。當你想咬指甲時，試著玩壓力球或其他東西)”可知，本段講述讓自己的手去做一些其他有益的事來避免咬指甲的行為，所以D項“This will help keep your hands busy and away from your mouth.(這將有助于讓你的手忙碌起來，遠離你的嘴)”符合文意。故選D項。
40．根據前文“Try to stop biting your nails step by step.(試著一步一步地停止咬指甲)”可知，本段講述一步步停止咬指甲，所以E項“Try to stop biting one set of nails , such as your thumb nails, first.(先試著不咬一組指甲，比如大拇指指甲)”是對前文建議的具體做法，引出后文“When that’s successful, move forward to your pointer nails, or even an entire hand. The final goal is to get to the point where you no longer bite any of your nails.(當這種方法成功時，繼續使用你的食指指甲，甚至整個手。最終的目標是達到你不再咬指甲的地步)”符合文意。故選E項。
第三部分 語言應用
第一節 略
第二節
【導語】本文是一篇說明文。本文主要介紹了詩歌的主要目的是用獨特的方式傳達重要的信息。無論是寫詩還是分析他人的詩歌，都需要考慮兩個主要方面：詩歌表達的是什么和如何表達。同時文章指出詩歌的主題應該是值得說的事情。
56．考查動詞。句意：詩歌用文字交流。分析句子，設空處使用動詞作謂語，本文講述的是關于詩歌的客觀事實，故本句使用一般現在時。故填communicates。
57．考查副詞。句意：要成功地做到這一點，它必須有重要的東西要說，用一種獨特的方式表達出來。分析句子，設空處使用successful的副詞successfully作狀語，意為“成功地”。故填successfully。
58．考查非謂語動詞。句意：無論你是自己寫詩還是分析別人寫的詩，你都應該考慮這兩大類：所說的內容和表達的方式。分析句子，空前的are writing為謂語動詞，設空處使用非謂語動詞，句中poems與write之間為被動關系，故使用過去分詞作后置定語。故填written。
59．考查非謂語動詞。句意：不管是什么，這首詩的主題都是值得一說的。句中be worth doing為固定短語，意為“值得做某事”。故填saying。
60．考查形容詞。句意：如果你是自己寫詩，又不是很有經驗，最好選擇一個你感覺深刻的主題。分析句子，設空處使用形容詞作表語，experienced意為“有經驗的”。故填experienced。
61．考查定語從句。句意：寫一首以“我記得”開頭的詩是把你的注意力集中在真正難忘的事情上的好方法。分析句子，設空處引導的是定語從句，引導詞在從句中作主語，修飾先行詞poem，為物，用which或者that。故答案為which/that。
62．考查介詞。句意：同上。句中focus on為固定短語，意為“集中注意力在……”。故填on。
63．考查冠詞。句意：然而，兩首詩很容易有相同的主題，但卻完全不同。句中the same為固定短語，意為“相同的”。故填the。
64．考查代詞。句意：是什么讓他們與眾不同？分析句子，設空處使用代詞的賓格作賓語，they的賓格為them。故填them。
65．考查非謂語動詞。句意：你需要分析的是詩人的寫作方式，如果你是在寫一首詩，如果你自己寫一首詩，你必須選擇適合你想表達的形式和詞匯。句中want to do為固定短語，使用不定式結構作賓語。故填to express。2024-2025學年第一學期高二年級期中教學質量檢測英語試卷

What do you do with old stuff That dress you bought for a party three years ago, for example. You wore it once and it’s been hanging in your wardrobe ever since. You could throw it away, but that seems wasteful — after all it’s still perfectly usable. So, what to do In the UK, we might take it to a charity shop.
The first charity shops appeared in Britain in the 19th century. The Salvation Army, a UK charity, was one of the first to run a second- hand clothing shop to provide the needy with affordable clothes. This was followed by charities such as the British Red Cross, who also relieved hardship and raised money for the war effort during World War II. The modern form we know today was opened in 1947 by Oxfam.
These days, there are around 11,200 charity shops across the UK. During business hours, anyone can donate their unwanted items to a charity shop— clothes, books, electronics, furniture. Most charity shops will take anything. These items are checked for wear and tear and if found still serviceable, priced up to be sold at a heavily discounted price.
To the charity, it means a valuable source of revenue（收益）, which they can use to pursue their charitable aim. To the consumer, it provides the chance to buy, often extremely cheaply, items and clothes. Though previously owned, they are durable. To the donor, it declutters（清理）and may help to lessen consumer guilt.
Usually, a buyer has bought something very cheaply, only to later discover its true value — such as a screen print bought for 99 pounds and later found to be created by English artist Ben Nicholson. It sold at auction（拍賣）for 4,200. So next time you need to throw something, spare a thought for the charity shop — after all, charity begins at home!
24. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. How the first charity shops appeared in the UK.
B. The history of charity shops in the UK.
C. The ups and downs of charity shops in the UK.
D. Charity shops in the UK during World War II.
25. What can we know about charity shops in the UK
A. Charity shops are a common sight.
B. Charity shops are open 24 hours a day.
C. Most charity shops mainly accept clothes donations.
D. Charity shops are more popular with young people.
26. What does the author think of the existence of charity shops
A. It will be short- lived. B. It is a double- edged sword.
C. It is a case where no side gains. D. It is a winning situation for three sides.
27. Why does the author take the example of the screen print
A. To tell us that charity begins at home.
B. To advise people to go to charity shops.
C. To show most items in charity shops are valuable.
D. To show there might be hidden treasures in charity shops.
C
The arts, especially music, should be part of every school’s lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.
Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band. Parents can enjoy listening to their children’s music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.
Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of audiences. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence. Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their characters. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.
28．How could music make students smarter
A．By improving their memory and attention.
B．By improving their classroom skills and imagination.
C．By making them brave, knowledgeable and modest.
D．By learning music, making music and trying out their own ideas.
29．What does the underlined phrase “glued to” in the second paragraph mean
A．Unwilling to turn on. B．Always looking for.
C．Unwilling to leave. D．Always playing.
30．What’s the main idea of the third paragraph
A．Music brings children success. B．Music gives children self-expression.
C．Music helps children achieve their dream. D．Music develops children’s self-confidence.
31．What’s the best title of the text
A．Music Is a Must as a Course at School B．Music Builds Children’s Self-confidence
C．Music Makes Students Much Smarter D．Learning Music Is Very Important

A long-nosed fur seal that was tagged in Tasmania as a baby seal has suddenly turned up in Victoria 25 years later, causing a rethink of how long the animal can survive in the wild.
The male fur seal was tagged with an obvious “830” marking on its right side of the body in 1996. The marking recently caught the attention of Victorian wildlife officers who tried to find out where the seal was from and who once put the little seal there.
“We were excited to respond to this call and gain important updated information from research activities done more than 20 years ago,” said the Tasmanian Environment Department marine biologist Sam Thalmann. “Scientists used to think the animals can live for at most 19 years, but this sighting of the fur seal 25 years after it was marked provides exciting new knowledge about the longest lifespan for wild fur seals in Australia.” Mr. Thalmann said the seal also surprised the researchers in other ways. “We see a lot of old male fur seals that are past their best years of health and move along the Tasmanian coast as they reach their end of life, but this seal tells another story,” he said. “Unlike others, it may continue to live in good health for years to come.”
Long-nosed fur seals are found around the coasts of southeastern Australia, southern NSW and New Zealand. The Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment said long-nosed fur seals were once close to complete disappearance due to the fur trade in the 1800s. But in 1987, the species reappeared in Tasmanian waters and formed a breeding group on Maatsuyker Island, about 10km off the state’s south coast. In the wild, seals are eaten by several species of sharks including the white shark.
The species is now still protected and listed as rare under the Tasmanian Threatened Species Protection Act. But the number of this species is recovering fast. Now the total population in Tasmania is 4,000 to 4,500. About 1,000 baby seals are born annually there now. Australia-wide, the population is about 58,000.
32．What did the officers think about long-nosed fur seals after knowing about this one
A．They have many secrets unknown to humans.
B．They have the strong ability to live independently.
C．They now have a much better living environment.
D．They can live much longer than people once believed.

A．This seal is still in good physical condition.
B．This seal is much older than other fur seals.
C．This seal draws more attention from researchers.
D．This seal never moves along the Tasmanian coast.
34．What almost led to the complete disappearance of long-nosed fur seals
A．Having lost their natural homes. B．Being overhunted by humans.
C．Being killed by the white shark. D．Suffering from climate change.
35．How does the author most probably find the situation of long-nosed fur seals now
A．Risky. B．Hopeful. C．Worrying. D．Shocking.

Nail biting (咬指甲) usually begins in childhood and can continue through adulthood. 36 It can also cause possible bacterial infection in your nail beds and mouth. To help you stop biting your nails, doctors recommend the following tips:
Keep your nails short. 37 If the length of your nails makes it hard to stop biting, try keeping them short until the habit is broken. This will help ensure you don’t put yourself in a situation where you have no other choice but to bite.
Identify your triggers (誘因). These could be physical triggers, such as the presence of hangnails (逆刺皮), or other triggers, such as boredom, stress, or anxiety. By finding out the causes, you can know how to avoid these situations. 38 Just knowing when you’re more likely to bite may help solve the problem.
Replace the nail-biting habit with a good habit. When you feel like biting your nails, try playing with a stress ball or something else instead. 39
Try to stop biting your nails step by step. 40 When that’s successful, move forward to your pointer nails, or even an entire hand. The final goal is to get to the point where you no longer bite any of your nails.
A．Try to remind yourself about it.
B．Having short nails provides nothing to bite.
C．Accordingly, you can develop a plan to stop.
D．This will help keep your hands busy and away from your mouth.
E．Try to stop biting one set of nails, such as your thumb nails, first.
F．But repeated nail biting can make the skin around your nails feel sore.
G．If you’ve repeatedly tried to quit and the problem sticks, see a doctor.

Poetry 56 (communicate) in words. To do that 57 (successful), it must have something important to say, expressing it in a unique way. Whether you are writing poetry yourself or analysing poems 58 (write) by someone else, you should be thinking about these two broad categories: what is being said, and how it is being expressed.
What is being said may be something unforgettable or something funny, something deeply emotional or something that has just made the writer stop and think. Whatever it is, the theme of the poem will be something worth 59 (say). If you are writing a poem yourself and are not very 60 (experience), it’s best to choose a topic you feel deeply about. Writing a poem 61 begins with ‘I remember’ is a good way to focus your attention 62 something really memorable.
However, two poems could easily have 63 same theme and yet be completely different. What makes 64 (they) different How they are expressed is the key. It is the way the poet writes that you need to analyse if you are writing about a poem, and if you are writing one yourself, you must choose the form and the words which suit what you want 65 (express).

閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city. The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim at their local beach after school. But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters. More often than not, they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach. Worse still, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste. One weekend, Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up. Sweat streamed down from their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags. To their disappointment, after a day’s hard work, there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water. Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down. What happened ” Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice, “It’s those annoying plastic bags. We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.” Understanding the pair’s disappointment, their father patted them on the back and comforted, “Well, it’s really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.” “Just two of us.” complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other. Suddenly, an idea lashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement. “Yes, that’s the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.
