安徽省宿州市2023届高三下学期2月联考英语试卷
学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________

一、阅读理解
Abundant yet rough, diverse yet unique, Jamaica is an island of contrasts. Kingston, on the southern coast, is the island country’s capital and most populated city. Dive in one of the south coast’s four bays and see hundreds of species of fish.
Food & Drink
Jerk chicken or pork is a must; the island spice flavours it perfectly. Watch and learn island cooking at Zimbali’s Cooking Studio, and don’t forget to sample some of the freshly caught seafood available all around the island. For a sweet treat, try the fried bananas or any of the island’s fresh fruit. For coffee lovers, Blue Mountain coffee is a treat.
Activities
Adventure-seekers can climb the Blue Mountains, raft the White River, shoot down a zip line, or ride horses along the beach. Nature and wildlife tours are also available. Those who want a more laid—back holiday can soak up the sun on the beaches, play one or all of the 12 golf courses.
Attractions
In Montego Bay, the coral reefs are spectacular and well worth a day’s diving. Blue Hole or Dunn’s River Falls, both near Ocho Rios, are fun ways to cool off in the water. The Rose Hall Great House is beautiful (and its story is scary)—but everyone comes out alive. You could also book a day trip to Appleton Rum Estate and tour the distillery(酿酒厂).
Accommodation
Jamaica Inn has a well-deserved reputation for old-school elegance. A landmark in Jamaica, this five-star private property has been welcoming guests, including well-known names like Marilyn Monroe and Ian Fleming, for over half a century. Located in the easternmost part of the island, the Inn has good ocean views.

A nightmare plot turned into a miracle—like rescue in Colorado on Sunday. Three children aged 4 to 11 years old were playing on the icy pond at The Addison at Cherry Creek apartments. Suddenly they fell in and were sinking in the freezing water. Dusti Talavera, who lives at the apartment complex, was looking out her window when she saw the kids fall in. Talavera, 23, said she did not hesitate to put on her shoes and rush to the pond, which is 15 feet deep.
“Before I realized it, I was on the pond pulling the two kids out, and that was when I fell in the pond for the third kid,” Talavera said during a press conference on Monday. Two of the kids were saved and Talavera began to pull a 6-year-old up to the surface, but was struggling. That was when a 16-year-old male, identified as the cousin of the 6-year-old, jumped in to help.
As deputies(警官) rushed to the scene, they heard that people were out of the pond, but one was not breathing. Deputy David Rodriguez immediately began chest compressions and mouth-to mouth resuscitation, CBS Denver reports. Two other deputies, Blaine Moulton and Justin Dillard, also assisted. She was rushed to Children’s Hospital and was breathing and had a pulse.
“Seeing her breathe was a massive relief,” said Dillard. The girl has been transferred to Denver Health, and as of Monday was in serious condition, but expected to survive, according to CBS Denver.
4、What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. The accident happened on a summer Sunday.
B. Without thinking Talavera offered the kids help.
C. The kids were playing with Talavera on the pond.
D. Talavera lives far from where the accident happened.
5、Who helped Talavera pull the third kid out?
A. A deputy. B. A teenager. C. A doctor. D. A reporter.
6、Which of the following can best describe Talavera?
A. Brave and helpful. B. Cautious and patient.
C. Far-sighted and generous. D. Warm-hearted and modest.
7、What’s the text mainly about?
A. A timely rescue. B. A serious drowning.
C. Some lucky children. D. Some honorable rescuers.
A man paralyzed from the neck down has gained the ability to type words with his brain about as fast as the average smartphone user, a new study says.
This “mindwriting” was done through a science-fiction sounding brain-computer interface (BCI)(接口) that picked up neural signals and fed them into an algorithm(算法) which translated them into letters. The secret to the success, and why this particular BCI was able to produce words at such a faster rate than other BCIs in the past, was that it tracked the brain signals of the patient, known as T5, as he imagined writing them down with a pen—a skill which remains in our motor skill system for years after paralysis.
“With this BCI, our study participant achieved typing speeds of 90 characters per minute,” wrote the study group, whose paper can be read in Nature. “To our knowledge, these typing speeds exceed(超过) those reported for any other BCI, and are comparable to typical smartphone typing speeds of individuals in the age group of our participant.” The study had conducted other trials with different BCIs before, in which they used eye-monitoring equipment, but found it required tremendous attention and focus from the user.
The new BCI isn’t yet developed enough to be called a prototype, meaning it will likely be years before more paralysis victims can regain their ability to communicate. However, this also means the room for improvement is much higher, explained one scientist, speaking with CNN.
8、How does mindwriting work?
A. It improves motor skill system. B. It tracks people’s hand signals.
C. It writes signals down with pens. D. It translates neural signals into words.
9、How do the study group support their findings?
A. By giving examples. B. By analyzing causes.
C. By making reference. D. By making comparisons.
10、What does the underlined word “prototype” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Thought. B. Model. C. Reminder. D. Barrier.
11、What’s the most suitable title for the text?
A. A New BCI Picks up Neural Signals
B. Mindwriting Helps Paralyzed Patients Write Fast
C. Paralyzed Patients Write as Fast as Smartphone Users
D. Paralysis Victims Regain Social Skills through Mindwriting
Weeds compete for soil nutrients, water, space, and sunlight with the crops farmers grow to help feed people. Now a third-generation weeding robot, armed with lasers and powered by AI, offers a perfect labor-saving device.
Trundling(移动) down a row of crops, a battery of twelve cameras scan the ground, identifying weeds through machine-learning and killing them with a CO2 laser. CO2 lasers use reactions between nitrogen, carbon, and oxygen to generate powerful beams of light that are concentrated through mirrors inside the laser.
The Autonomous Weeder by Carbon Robotics can root out 100,000 weeds per hour, and clear15-20 acres in a single day-numbers that require a person working an entire season to match. The robot's onboard supercomputer ensures millimeter precision with its laser so as to avoid accidently clipping(剪掉) crops.
"This is one of the most creative and valuable technologies that I've seen as a farmer," said James Johnson of Carzalia Farm in a statement, who has used Carbon Robotics' technology on his farm. "I expect the robots to go mainstream because of how effectively they address some of farming's most critical issues, including the overuse of chemicals, process efficiency, and labor. The sky is the limit." It's no surprise that the 2021 model of the Autonomous Weeder has already sold out, even considering its price tag which was quoted at "hundreds of thousands of dollars."
The de-weeding method of the robot is Certified Organic and in line with regenerative farming practices. Cost-effective weed control is the biggest barrier to entry with organic farming, and agriculturalists looking to make the switch finally have an alternative to help them get their vegetables out to people.
12、Which part of the weeder helps clear grass precisely?
A. The CO2 laser. B.The battery of cameras.
C. Mirrors inside the laser. D. The onboard supercomputer.
13、What does the underlined sentence "The sky is the limit." mean in paragraph 4?
A. The robots won't spread widely.
B. The invention is very promising.
C. The weeder addresses limited issues.
D. The technology needs further improvement.
14、What does James think of the weeder?
A. Flexible. B. Affordable.
C. Energy-saving. D.Environment-friendly.
15、What can be inferred about the weeder from the last paragraph?
A. It contributes to a higher output. B. It helps develop organic farming.
C.It will replace humans in farming. D. It isn't accepted by agriculturalists.
二、七选五
16、 No matter where you go, you'll notice something strange about trees—the fact that their bottoms are painted white. Generally speaking, the purpose of whitewashing is to protect trees from heat and insects. ①_____ Let's check them out!
Blocking the sun
You might sometimes notice that some tree trunks' surfaces get dry and crack easily. ②_____. Simply put, they are exposed to the burning sun and the temperatures change wildly between day and night.

Defending against pests
More often than not, a tree's surface will crack, allowing insects to creep(爬行) inside. ④_____. Therefore, people whitewash trees using latex paint and water, which prevents insects from climbing up trees and entering inside through the cracks.
⑤_____
Last but not least, the surface of trees is painted white to make them more visible, specifically for those on the side of the road. Why is that important? Because accidents involving trees are extremely common, especially during the night, when drivers can not see them much more clearly.

Owing to the spread of COVID-19, visiting loved ones has become something seemingly impossible.
Even so, when 9-year-old Romeo Cox decided what he wanted more than anything else was a hug from his 77-year-old grandmother, he didn’t let any small things, like separation, or that she was 1,700 miles away and there were no flights from his new home in Sicily to his native UK, stop him from making the trip.
“I hadn’t seen Granny for ages, so I planned secretly to go see her,” Romeo said in an interview with the Times. His parents disagreed at first, but Romeo finally talked them into letting him make the trip.
With his folks’ blessing, Romeo turned his plans into action. “I drew a map. I would walk and take boats,” he told the Times. “And I’d take Dad. It would be handy to have an adult.”
Handy indeed, since Romeo’s father, 46-year-old Phil Cox, is a retired journalist and filmmaker whose rich experiences gave him invaluable knowledge about making the way in less than ideal conditions.
Romeo and Phil set off on their journey on June 20. The pair trekked(跋涉) across Italy, Switzerland, and France.

Paragraph 1:
While travelling, the two did meet some hardships or danger. They were forced to avoid wild dogs, got lost a time or two, suffered sore feet, and befriended a wild donkey, but no matter how unusual the conditions were, they just kept going. Romeo wanted nothing but a hug from his 77-year-old grandma, which motivated and inspired him greatly on the journey.
Paragraph 2:
On September 21, father and son finally made it to Grandma Rosemary’s home in London. When Grandma’s house eventually came in sight, Romeo burst into a joyful run that ended in the embrace he’d so longed for. Grandma didn’t believe her grandson’s unbelievable journey at first. But more than anything else, her heart was filled with love and gratitude. “Children can inspire us and lift us all up. On behalf of all the grannies in all the world, I want to thank Romeo and hug him and kiss him a lot,” she told the Times.
