Our Work in Arts.BThe student arrived early, sat front and center, and stood out in my classroom in more ways than one. I’d say that he was about 40 years older than his classmates in my undergraduate communications class. He eagerly jumped into class discussions, with his humor and wisdom of experience. And he was always respectful of the other students’ perspectives, as if each of them were a teacher. Jerry Valencia walked in with a smile—and he left with one too.“These students gave me the confidence that I didn’t need to feel bad about my age,” Valencia says.One day, I spotted Valencia on campus. He said he would have to stop taking classes that semester and reapply for next year. By then, he hoped to have earned enough money and have his student-loan papers in order. He asked seriously whether he could still sit in on my communications class.Sure, I said. But he wouldn’t get any credit.No problem, he said.Soon there he was again, back at his old desk, jumping into our discussions on how to find and tell stories in Los Angeles—a 63-year-old man with as much energy and curiosity as any of the youngsters in class.A lot of Valencia’s classmates apparently knew he couldn’t afford that semester’s tuition but was still doing the homework. “Here he is, willingly taking a class for the delight of it and benefit of learning,”says Jessica Espinosa, a 25-year-old junior. Afterward, I overheard Valencia wanted to stay in school until he earned a master’s degree, but it had taken him 12 years to finish community college, so he had a long way to go.There is something splendidly unreasonable about Valencia’s determination to get a four-year degree and then a master’s. At his current pace, he’ll be 90 when he finally hangs all that paper on the wall. But that doesn’t seem especially relevant. He’s found all the youthful energy and academic opportunity stimulating. Valencia’s grade in my class this semester will not show up on his transcripts(成绩单). But I’m giving him an A—and in the most important ways, it counts.24. What made Valencia different from his classmates?A. He was respectful to the teacher.B. He activated the class atmosphere.C. He was eager to learn despite his age.D. He often put forward different opinions.25. According to the author, why did Valencia continue to attend classes?A. He treasured the chance of learning.B. He wished to show his determination.C. He needed the credits to further his study.D. He desired to have an A on his transcripts.26. Which of the following best describes Valencia?A. Modest and independent.                   B.Energetic and generous.C. Enthusiastic and motivated.               D.Considerate and intelligent.27. What can we learn from the passage?A. No pains, no gains.                           B.It is never too old to learn.C. Strike the iron while it is hot.         D.Where there is life, there is hope.CWhen Eugenie George first heard that her friend passed an exam, her heart sank. She’d failed that test weeks earlier, and needed more work to advance her own career. But instead of anxiety, she called her friend. "I congratulated her and told her she inspired me," she says. She was surprised when it changed her attitude, so she could share her friend’s happiness and experience her own, in turn.Finding pleasure in another person’s good fortune is what social scientists call freudenfreude, a term that describes the joy we feel when someone else succeeds, even if it isn’t directly connected with us. Freudenfreude is like social glue, says Catherine Chambliss, a professor of psychology at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania. It makes relationships "closer and more enjoyable". Sharing in someone else’s joy can also improve life satisfaction and resilience(适应力) and help people cooperate during a disagreement.While the benefits of freudenfreude are plentiful, it doesn’t always come easily. Sometimes, your loss might last, making freudenfreude feel out of reach. If you were raised in a family that paired winning with self-worth, Chambliss says, you might misread someone else’s victory as your own personal shortcoming. And factors such as mental health and overall wellbeing can also affect your ability to participate in someone else’s joy. Still, freudenfreude is worthwhile and there are ways to encourage the feeling.Instead of an automatic response, freudenfreude is often an active process. To help people strength enjoy-sharing muscles, Chambliss and her colleagues developed a programme called Freudenfreude Enhancement Training (FET). They found that depressed people who used the practices for two weeks had an easier time expressing freudenfreude, which built up their relationships and improved their mood.Jean Grae, an artist, supports friends in this mindset. When someone gets a new opportunity or reaches a milestone, she makes sure to celebrate. Grae says she’s especially moved when anyone considered ‘other’ succeeds. "It’s truly inspirational," she says, "because it lifts us all up and makes us shine.”28. What do we know about Eugenie George?A. She took pride in passing her exam. B. She shared her success with her friend.C. She was pleased with her friend’s success. D. She was annoyed at her failure in an exam.29. What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on about freudenfreude?A. Its great benefits. B. Its disadvantages. C. Reasons for its absence. D. Ways of improving it.30. Why is Freudenfreude Enhancement Training (FET) held?A. To test the effect of freudenfreude.     B. To help people apply freudenfreude.C. To get people to know freudenfreude.     D. To show the advantages of freudenfreude.31. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. How to experience freudenfreude?     B. Let’s share what leads to freudenfreude.C. Freudenfreude: View others’success as our own. D. A win-win: Freudenfreude brings our own pleasure.DSince 2001, robotic tools have revolutionized the practice of surgery(外科手术). They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.One example is “keyhole surgery”, or minimally invasive(微创) surgery, which normally requires surgeons to stand at awkward angles and make difficult movements with their hands to make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgeon James Ansell used 3D glasses and two sticks to control four robotic arms to perform a procedure to remove a cancerous tumor. “My colleague said... that this feels like cheating,” Ansell said to The Guardian.Another area of surgery that has had major technological breakthroughs in recent years is telesurgery. Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connect ion due to concerns of harming the patient, should a wireless connection drop during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000kilometers. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who (perated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province.Looking to the future, people hope that remote surgery could become commonplace to help heal injured soldiers on the battlefield while keeping surgeons at a safe distance. Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day exceed human surgeons.But given current technological limitations and the high costs of these robots which can cost millions of dollars, the complete robot takeover of surgery may still be a while off.32. What does the “key hole surgery ”example intend to show?A. Great complexity of robotic surgery.B. Physical challenges surgeons face.C. Surgical progress enabled by robotic tools.D. Urgent need for advanced 3D technology.33. What significant achievement did China make in the field of "telesurgery?A. Achieving remote surgery using a wired connection.B. Completing successfully remote eye surgery on humans.C. Conducting a 5G-based remote operation on rabbits overseas.D. Performing the first wireless brain surgery with 5G technology.34. What can be inferred from the text about robots in the medical field?A. They are quite affordable.B. They are currently in high demand.C. They have not been widely used.D. They have gone beyond human capabilities.35. What is a suitable title for the text?A. Robotic Surgery Uses 5G TechnologyB. Keyhole Surgery Benefits Human BeingsC. Autonomous Robot Achieves Great ProgressD. Medical Robotics Revolutionizes Surgery Method第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)Resolving (解决) Conflict in FriendshipsConflict is surely a common problem in life and friendships.___36___ That's because there isn't enough depth to guarantee all the trouble it takes to smooth over the disagreement. Unfortunately, even when the friendship reaches a deeper level, conflict continues to happen and can break apart a relationship. Here are some resolutions.Resolve it the day it happens. One rule my parents follow in their marriage is that they don't go to bed angry with each other. They always attempt to resolve things the day it happens so that in the morning, it's a fresh start with no past grudge (怨恨). I've found I need a short cool down period so that I don't act in anger.___37___ Whatever you do, don't let things ride for too long.___38___ Sometimes if you sit down and talk things over, you begin to see where the other person is coming from. Realize that everyone has been created differently with various talents, abilities, and personality traits. For example, you might be a leader while your friend is more of a follower. You may be frustrated with him or her for not being very decisive. Yet it is important to understand that each person is unique and needs to be appreciated.Initiate resolution. ___39___ Even when you think the other person is wrong，it's not a bad thing to say "I'm sorry if I offended you in that way." If you're honest and genuine in delivering your words, there's a good chance your friend will respond positively.Most importantly, be loving in what you do. Try to focus on peacefully resolving the disagreement. It is not a most pleasant task to resolve conflict in any friendship. ___40___A. Don't expect too much.B. Try to see the other person's perspective.C. Be the first person in a fight to say sorry for your part.D. Many shallow friendships end up being ruined after an argument.E. To say sorry bravely when a conflict breaks out is a better resolution.F. However, it is worth the efforts because it results in a deeper friendship.G. For some, counting to one hundred before saying anything may be an option.第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分)My 5-year-old daughter Kai walked around a bus stop, picking up candy wrappers and plastic bottles and throwing them in the waste bin.

Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route（路线）through thick evergreen forest.I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn't with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!I quickly searched the crowd for the school's coach and asked him what had happened. "I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him," he explained uncomfortably. "I gave him the choice to run or not, and let him decide."I bit back my frustration. I knew the coach meant well — he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer — that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run long after the other children, he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn't look at me. I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. 2023-2024学年（上）江西省宜丰中学创新部高二12月考英语答案1-5 BACCB 6-10 ABACB 11-15 BABCA 16-20 ACACB21--23 CDC 24--27 DCAB 28--31 CCBD 32--35 CDCD 36--40 DGBCF41—45.

Different students have different attitudes towards it.70% of us declare researching outer space is worthwhile. First of all, people can attain new knowledge of outer space through their exploration. Secondly, human beings could get access to new resources, thus solving energy shortage problems on earth. Thirdly, this exploration could possibly bring about new living space for human life in the near future. However, 30% are strongly against it, arguing that it is a waste of money to do this kind of exploration, which is not worth the value. Besides, astronauts may meet great dangers when working in outer space.In my opinion, people should be pioneering, and therefore such exploration into outer space is worth trying out.We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn't look at me. With a sorrowful expression hanging on his face, David sat around motionlessly and helplessly, his head drooping powerlessly.Clenching my teeth, I took a deep breath and patted him to get his attention in a discreet and scrupulous manner. Under his gaze I took the plunge to persuade him, “No one will laugh at those who pursued success with painstaking effort. Just believe yourself!"It was not long before David stood up determinedly and earnestly, strode to the starting line and gave me a firm look back.I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. Within a moment or two, the big cross-country run began, after which I stood still, only to see David's figure disappearing from my sight slowly. Immediately, I arrived at the finish line by taxi to wait for David's arrival. After what seemed like ages, David crossed the finish line, exhausted but thrilled. Seeing this sense, I flip-flopped from an anxious state to irreversible delight in a flash. However, what moved me most was the moment that David rushed to me and convey his gratitude to me that it was my encouragement that snatched his last hesitation, for which it empowered him to have a burning desire to finish the competition and feel the excitement of conquering himself.70%的同学赞成30%的同学反对你自己的观点1.获得新知识；2.从太空取得新资源；3.扩大人类未来的生存空间。1.耗资巨大；2.宇航员的安全问题。……
