John Frederick Kensett was born on March 22, 1816 in Cheshire, Connecticut. He attended school at
Cheshire Academy, and studied carving with his immigrant father, Tomas Kensett, and later with his uncle. He worked as a carver in the New Haven area until about 1838, after which he went to work as a banknote carver in New York City. He didn't know his carving experience would benefit him later. In 1840, Kensett
traveled to Europe in order to study painting. He sketched (画素描) and painted throughout Europe,
improving his talents. During this period, Kensett developed an affection for the 17th-century Dutch landscape painting. He returned to the United States in 1847.
After establishing his studio and settling in New York, Kensett traveled extensively throughout the
Northeast and the Colorado Rockies as well as making several trips back to Europe.
Kensett is best known for his landscape of New York and New England and seascapes(海景画) of coastal New Jersey, Long Island and New England. He is most closely associated with the so-called
搒econd generation? of the Hudson River School. In 1851 Kensett painted a monumental canvas(巨幅油
画)of Mount Washington that has become a sign of White Mountain art.
Kensett's style evolved gradually, from the traditional Hudson River School manner in the 1850s into
the more improved Luminist style in his later years. By the early 1870s Kensett was spending considerable time at his home on Contentment Island, on Long Island Sound near Darien Connecticut.
It was during this time that Kensett painted some of his finest works. Many of these were seascapes,
the major example being Eaton's Neck, Long Island(1872) now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The artist was widely praised and financially successful during his lifetime. In turn, he was generous
in support of the arts and artists. He was a full member of the National Academy of Design, the founder and president of the Artists? Fund Society, and a founder of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Kensett died of heart failure at his New York studio on December 14, 1872.

Right now you should know about two ways to represent numbers, as Roman numerals and Arabic numerals. Plus, people in other countries use different symbols for numbers. With all these different symbols, how can math be a universal language?
Math is a universal language because the principles and foundations of math are the same everywhere
around the world. Ten plus ten equals twenty if you write it as Arabic numerals 10+10=20 or Roman numerals X+X=XX. The concept of 20 items is the same no matter where you are in the world.
And, what about geometry(几何)? A circle is always a circle and its circumference (周长) is always
calculated the same way no matter where you are in the world. The same holds true for any other figure like triangles, squares or rectangles.
We like to visit other countries to experience new scenery, new foods and a different culture. It's fun to
watch documentaries about festivals that we don't have in North America. There is a great deal of cultural diversity in the world that we can enjoy and celebrate. But math is one thing that is common to everyone.
Different countries use different units of measurement; for example, the United States and the United
Kingdom use inches and feet while the rest of Europe uses metric measurements of centimeters and meters. But no matter what the units are, everyone must measure the house that they are building. Houses everywhere, whether they are square or round, are built using the same mathematical equations(方程式).
The principles of probability are the same everywhere as well. The chance of rain in Guatemala might
be greater than the chance of rain in the Sahara Desert but probability works the same way. People around the world have different genes but the probability of passing on genes to their children follows the same mathematical rules.
It is easy to see that no matter how diverse different cultures are, math is one common language across

the world.
28. How many ways to stand for numbers are mentioned in the text?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
29. What is the author抯 purpose in mentioning geometry in the third paragraph?
A. To highlight the importance of math.
B. To study different shapes and forms.
C. To show how to calculate the circumference.
D. To prove math calculation is often used in it is always the same.
30. What does the underlined word揻igure攎ean in the third paragraph?
A. Shape. B. Size. C. Picture. D. Field.
31. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. Math has no distinct characteristics of diversity.
B. Documentaries about festivals are always fun.
C. People hope to experience different cultures abroad.
D.Culture has a huge impact on the development of math.

In Illinois, legislators(立法委员)and advocates of removing the state's lead(铅) service lines said on Monday that a newly signed law moves the state closer to removing that 搕oxic infrastructure(基础设施)”
and ensuring all Illinoisans have clean water to drink.
State Senator Melinda Bush, a supporter of the legislation, said the lines are a health threat that not only costs us billions of dollars, but poisons our children and destroys our residents' confidence in their water supply.
揚assing this bill with strong support shows a basic truth about lead in our drinking water梚t affects
all of us, and every single one of us, especially our children, deserves clean, safe drinking water,? Bush said.
The Lead Service Line Replacement Notification Act creates timelines for owners and operators of
community water supplies that have lead service lines to make a list of those lines and create replacement plans. Water suppliers will have to submit their replacement plan to the Environmental Protection Agency by April 2024. The law also requires the state's Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to create a low-income water assistance policy and program to ensure state residents have access to affordable, clean water.
Lead in drinking water has long been linked to a host of health problems, including kidney failure,
heart disease, learning disabilities and impaired(受损的) hearing. Studies have found that even tiny amounts of lead can damage children's brains.
Bush said it's estimated that Illinois has about an eighth of all known lead service lines in the country.
Service lines are the pipes that carry water from a city's street mains to homes. Not only does Illinois have one-eighth of the lead service lines in the country, but 300,000 to 500.000 of them are in Chicago.
揂lthough this is a statewide problem, we know that this toxic infrastructure really affects Illinois'
people,? Bush said.
32. What does the underlined word 搕oxic" mean in the first paragraph?
A. Basic. B. Common. C. Healthy. D. Poisonous.
33. Why must the newly signed law be carried out as soon as possible?
A. To warn water suppliers to offer clean water.
B. To test whether the water system works well.
C. To raise the confidence of all the Illinoisans.
D. To make sure residents have safe drinking water.
高二英语学科 试题 第 5 页 （共8 页）
34. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. The submitted policy must favour the poor families.
B. The residents in Illinois haven't realized the possible dangers.
C. Water suppliers have submitted a practical replacement plan.
D. The government should inspect community water supplies regularly.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Statewide Lead in Water Is Hurting You
B. Lead in Water Is Damaging Kids? Brains
C. Getting the Lead Out with the New Technology
D. A New Law Urges to Remove Lead Service Lines

Jenny was the coolest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did.
Her deskmate, Rose, however, was not in the cool kids? group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she
was teased by her classmates, who were always chanting 揜ose, Rose, long as spaghetti (意大利面)?. Every time Rose heard those silly chants, she could feel her face burst into flames. God knew how she wished the ground to crack and swallow her!
Jenny didn抰 really like it when the kids chanted 揜ose, Rose, long as spaghetti?. But she never told
them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular.
One weekend, Jenny went over to her grandfather for Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives on a farm at
the opposite end of town, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Jenny noticed a peculiar one. Curling in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare!
揥hat抯 the matter with it?? She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her
grandfather told her how chickens could act. 揟hey have a pecking (啄) order,? he explained, wrinkles of
concern spreading around his forehead. 揑f one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.”
揙h, what a poor little thing!? Jenny let out a sigh as she scooped the frightened chicken up in her
arms, whose heart was beating fast in the bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Rose, the girl being 損ecked? by her classmates. 揑抦 going to take it home and take good care of it,? she said with a determined look.
Back in school, Jenny told the cool kids about the chicken. 揑t抯 looking healthy,? she said proudly.
揑t抯 fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around the garden, and...? Everyone was entertained by Jenny抯 story of her lovely chicken, laughter lingering around the classroom.

Dear Jack,
I'm very excited to know the news that you were awarded MVP in the basketball match held in school last Sunday.
I show my congratulations sincerely. This is a good evidence to show what hard work you've devoted to practising
and improving your skills. When you first learned to play basketball, you were at a loss about the basic skills and felt embarrassed. But it wasn't long before you caught up and became an excellent player. That you were awarded MVP shows your great determination and painstaking efforts in practising basketball. I hope that one day we can have a game of basketball, so that I can learn from you.
Best wishes.
Possible version：
Then Jenny spotted Rose sitting by herself in a corner. She kept her head down with her eyes fixed on the floor as usual. It hit Jenny that the pecking order worked in school, too. Rose was just like the poor little chicken, being teased and ignored by her classmates, merely due to her special height. 揑t抯 time for me to make an apology to Rose.? Jenny thought to herself. No sooner had she made up her mind than she announced it to the cool kids surrounding her. Astonished at what she said, all the kids burst out screaming, 揟alking to the long spaghetti? Are you crazy?”
But Jenny walked directly toward Rose, regardless of what they said. 揌i, Rose. I抦 sorry about the spaghetti thing.”
Jenny murmured an apology, her face reddening. 揑 know it hurts you. Can you forgive us?? She figured Rose might just
walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and nodded yes. Jenny wiped away her tears, giving her a warm hug. Moved by
the scene, the other kids also came to offer their sincere apologies to Rose. From that day on, no one made up silly chants about Rose, and Jenny also gained an important life lesson that everyone should be treated equally no matter how special he or she was.
