      乌鲁木齐市第十二中学2022-2023学年高二下学期 期中考试      总分150 考试时间120分钟 一、阅读理解(共30分)It’s strange how one tiny zipper tooth can create such big problems—and such amazing resolutions. It was Jo Du’s wedding day in Ontario, Canada when the dress’s zipperbroke. While everyone was struggling for some kind of tools, some of the guests walked next door to the house of Jo’s neighbor David Hobson. When they returned, they came bearing interesting news: David had taken in a family of Syrian refugees, the father of which was a master tailor who said he would be happy to help. With toolbox in hand, Ibrahim Dudu walked over and mended Jo’s dress in front of an amazed wedding party. The photographer, Lindsay Coulter, was there to witness the whole thing. “Every weekend I take photos of people on the happiest days of their lives, and today one man who has seen some of the worst things our world has to offer came to the help,” Lindsay wrote on Facebook. “I am so proud to live in Canada, a country who has opened our doors to refugees countless times. I respect the families who have welcomed these strangers in to their homes and lives, and I’m inspired by the adapt ability of the Syrian people. We are truly blessed.”The meeting was important since Jo and her husband Earl are both immigrants themselves. Ibrahim and his family had only been in Canada for four days before the incident. Since none of them spoke a word of English, they had been communicating merely through Google Translate. You can help support the Dudu family by donating to their crowdfunding page here.1How do the wedding party feel about the man’s sewing skills?ADoubtful. BSurprised. CConfused. DDisappointed.2What does the underlined part “one man” in paragraph 4 refer to?ADavid Hobson. BLindsay Coulter.CIbrahim Dudu. DJo’s husband Earl.3What can we know about the Dudu family?AThey ran away from Syria. BThey can speak a little English.CThey refused local people's help. DThey lived in Canada for a long time.4Where is the text most probably from?AA diary. BA guidebook. CA novel. DA website. The key to a happy life has nothing to do with getting ahead at work, making money, or traveling the world. Instead, living your best life and creating meaning is all about one thing: relationships.A study of adult development has been running at Harvard since 1938, and is now on its second generation of participants—the children of the original study’s subjects. Over decades, the research team collected data about their lives, including their physical and mental health, marital (婚姻的) status and quality, career happiness, etc.They found the most important aspect in how happy and healthy these men were over time was their relationships. In other words: Finding happiness in life is all about the people you love.The research doesn’t only include romantic relationships and marriage. Quality, close relationships are important whether they are in the situation of romantic relationships or closeness between friends or family members. The kind of relationship you have is less important than how close you feel with them.However, the study only included men, and important gender differences exist in how people experience relationships. Some research suggests that men may benefit more from marriage. But they tend to have a harder time keeping friendships; as men get older, they will more likely say they have nobody to discuss important subjects with. So it’s possible that having close relationships throughout their lives might affect men differently than women.The findings line up with the effects of loneliness. People who are socially isolated have a greater likelihood of strokes (中风), heart attacks, and higher blood pressure, not to mention mental health issues.Unfortunately for the youngest generations, recent surveys found that young Americans are lonelier than older generations. That will likely have a big impact on how healthy and happy people feel throughout their lives.5What’s the moral lesson from this passage?ATravel far and wide to learn a lot. BKeep an open mind to be creative.CTreasure your time with your loved ones. DWork hard to be the best of your profession.6What’s the implication of Paragraph 5?AWomen are unwilling to participate in the study.BMen are better at maintaining a close relationship.CWomen are not treated equally in scientific research.DThe findings of the study may not be true for women.7Why is the youngest generation unfortunate?ABecause they have nobody to talk to. BBecause they are more socially isolated.CBecause they can’t keep their relationships. DBecause they suffer physically and mentally.8What is the best title for the text?AClose Relationships Make a Happy LifeBMen Look Forward to Close RelationshipsCClose Relationships Ensure People’s HealthDMen and Women Differ in Keeping Relationships In 2002, Huang Hui, a researcher of the South China Sea Institute of Oceanology, went diving near Xisha. In addition to getting an irremovable suntan (晒黑), she was left with memories of a beautiful experience with clear water and abundant colorful corals (珊瑚). However, much of the breathtaking scenery of this reef has disappeared due to climate change and human activities. All of these factors led to the decline of the coral reef in the near shore waters. “We started to cultivate corals near the Xisha Islands in 2010, and restored more than 200,000 square meters of coral reefs,” Huang said.In 2004, when Huang was attending the 10th International Coral Reef Symposium, she found herself the only representative from the Chinese mainland. She said she felt sad but she made up her mind to strengthen communication with other countries to improve China’s level and status in coral research. She visited top coral research institutes in the US and Australia, establishing long-term cooperation with some of the world’s top coral researchers. By far, Huang has worked on coral research and protection for 22 years. Now, China is in a leading position in terms of technology and coral planting scale.Huang believes that people’s consciousness of coral protection matters most to the sustainable development of the coral reefs. “I want to call on more people to love nature and look at the ocean in awe,” Huang said.Partly due to her efforts, Hainan Province released a law in 2017 banning reef exploitation (开发), trading and damaging.Huang works as a consultant for customs and frontier police on coral protection and promotes coral protection in her local schools. Huang also provides online free training for divers to teach them proper behavior in the sea to protect coral reefs. “A group of ‘folk scientists’ have also been trained with the hope that more people can gain awareness of the significance of coral reef protection and know how to protect them,” said Huang.“I am 50, and when I become 60, I hope that not only a coral island will be built but a sustainable development pattern will also be created,” said Huang. “The ideal state is that the coral island should be able to support fishermen and preserve the ecosystem,” she added.9What impressed Huang most when going diving near Xisha in 2002?AA permanent sunburn on her skin.BA large quantity of colorful corals.CA sweet memory of her childhood.DThe sudden disappearance of corals.10What does Paragraph 2 mainly focus on?AChina’s advances in coral protection. BHuang’s devotion to coral protection.CHuang’s concern over coral protection. DPeople’s ignorance of coral protection.11What is the key to protecting corals according to Huang Hui?AIntroduction of advanced technology.BTough laws banning reef exploitation.CPublic awareness of coral protection.DCommunication with foreign countries.12What is the best title for this passage?ACorals in South China Sea are in danger.BScientist plants corals to save ecosystem.CChina is taking the lead in planting corals.DMeasures are to be taken to protect corals. You may have recently seen a video from the Beijing Wildlife Zoo becoming a hit. What exactly was so interesting about this video? It shows a dog playing with big cats four to five times its size! Many people might wonder if this dog has a death wish, but it seems that the dog and the big cats are good friends.The dog was actually raised alongside the lion and tiger cubs, making up an odd but loving family, according to zoo officials. As opposed to the common belief, cross-species friendship has been around for centuries. People have domesticated many animals, most notably cats and dogs, and formed bonds with them as pets. Perhaps you even have a pet yourself.There are many other instances of cross-species friendships.At an animal sanctuary in Santiago, Chile, a jaguar named Marina and a deer named Laura formed a friendship after they both came to the park. As neither animal had a mother, sanctuary staff said they instantly bonded when they met. Laura had been rescued from a slaughterhouse while Marina had been rescued from the street.One possible explanation for these friendships is the environment of the zoo. Animals don’t hunt for their food and don’t need to worry about marking their territory or looking for mates in the way an animal in the wild would. “All those activities take time and energy, and if these needs are removed, the animals get bored,” Gordon Burghardt, a psychologist at the University of Tenessee, US, told The Atlantic magazine. “In this particular situation, the animal’s motivation to engage socially and playfully may be higher in its need hierarchy(等级)than eating.”Marc Bekoff, former biology professor at the University of Colorado, US, told Slate magazine, “I think the choices animals make in cross-species relationships are the same as they’d make in same-species relationships. Some dogs don’t like every other dog. Animals are very selective about the other individuals who they let into their lives.”13What is the common opinion about the friendship between animals?AIt’s easier for dogs and cats to become friends.BAnimals tend to play with peers of the same species.CThe friendship between animals is not solid and reliable.DIt’s common that animals of different species can become friends.14Why are Marina and Laura mentioned in paragraph 4?ATo present a truth. BTo explain a phenomenon.CTo introduce the topic. DTo provide a proof.15What’s the key factor of the animals’ friendship in the zoo according to Gordon Burghardt?AThe existing tradition. BThe influence by mates.CThe animals’ inner social drive. DThe animals’ raisers’ instruction.16What’s the purpose of the passage?ATo appeal to people to treasure animals.BTo inform readers of a special friendship.CTo demonstrate the history of bringing up pets.DTo compare friendship between cross-species and same-species. 二、七选五(共10分)Most Valuable Possessions on EarthMarie was a single mother of two children in a rural Missouri community. ____17____ She also dedicated much spare time to numerous charities and community projects.Then one day Marie received some shocking news from her doctor.

I hold my lunch-box in my hand when I was going to school. The smell from it was very good. Since the lunch bell finally rang, my friends or I met under a tall tree and had our lunches. My best friend Aigulie was used to share her Nang with me. Nang is a specially kind of cake in Xinjiang. I like them very much. Now Aigulie and I study at different colleges or we can only see each other during the summer vacation. I think over her a lot and I miss the food and the good time we had together. 六、作文(共25分)53.假定你是李华,你的美国朋友Tom最近迷上了中国诗人李白,他写信向你询问有关诗人李白的信息。请你给他写封回信,介绍诗人李白和他的诗歌。注意:1. 写作词数应为80左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Dear Tom

Equally impressive is his free expression of strong feelings.Li Bai created a large number of wonderful poems throughout his life, many of which remain popular today. What I appreciate most are his landscape poems, in which he conveyed his strong love for nature, friends and the people. His poems have had a great influence on generations of poets both in and outside China.Now, Have you got a better understanding of Li Bai? If you want to know more, please write to me soon!
