10、学期末）Once a circle missed a wedge (楔子). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly, it admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. Finally it found a pie

11、ce that fit perfectly. It was so happy. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice flowers or talk to the worms. When it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly aw

12、ay.In some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything is in some ways a poor man. He will never know what it feels like to yearn, to hope, to nourish(滋润) his soul with the dream of something better. He will never know the experience of having someone wh

18、annot understand why a lady he met outside the Hyde Park in London said, “Ooh, isnt it cold?”, and he thinks of this behaviour as a distinctively English concern about the weather. In fact, the female was just trying to strike up a conversation with Jeremy. Not necessarily a long conversation just a

19、n exchange of greetings. It is not always quite that obvious, but all English weather conversations have a distinctive structure conducted according to unwritten but accepted rules.The unpredictable nature of our weather ensures that there is always something new to comment on, or perhaps most impor

20、tantly, agree about. We have already established that weather-speak greetings like “Cold, isnt it?” require the response expressing agreement, as in “Yes, isnt it?” .It would be very rude to respond with “No, actually its quite mild.” or “Its pretty hot to me.” If you deliberately break the rule, yo

21、u will find that the atmosphere becomes rather tense and awkward. There may be an uncomfortable silence. Most likely, they will either change the subject or continue talking about the weather among themselves politely, if coldly, ignoring your faux pas.There is, however, one situation in which Engli

22、sh weather-speakers are not required to observe the agreement rule at all and that is the male-bonding argument, particularly the pub-argument. In the special environment of the pub, constant disagreement not just on the weather, but on everything else as well is a means of expressing friendship.Whi

23、le we may spend much of our time complaining about our weather, foreigners are not allowed to criticize it. Indeed, this brings us to the weather as family rule. In this respect, we treat the English weather like a member of our family: one can complain about the behavior of ones own children or par

24、ents, but any blame from an outsider is unacceptable. The weather may be one of the few things about which the English are still unconsciously and unashamedly patriotic （爱国的）.9Why did the lady comment on the weather to Jeremy?ATo build up friendship.BTo begin a casual chat.CTo send seasonal greeting

25、s.DTo express dissatisfaction.10What does the underlined phrase “faux pas” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?AImproper response.BCareless attitude.CRude interruption.DFrequent complaint.11What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?AMale bonding in pubs.BArgument about weather.CException to the agreement rule.DMaki

27、lion American were laid off or discharged from their jobs each month on average in 2019, according to data from the U. S. Bureau of Labor statistics. People who lose their jobs often confront a difficult choice: should they take a new job that pays less, or should they make a costly investment in ga

28、ining new skills so that they can compete for another similar job or an even better one?If they do decide on retraining ,which programs and occupational licenses are worth their while? In general, the highest-paying jobs tend to have the most difficult education/ training and experience requirements

29、. But that is not always the case. The following are five occupational licenses with the biggest bang for your buck. Drone Pilots: If you want to become a drone pilot, all you need to do is be above 16 years old, pass the Federal Aviation Administrations Remote Pilot Certificate exam (which requires

30、 about 15 to 20 hours of studying), and pay a $ 150 licensing fee. Pay for drone pilots averages $ 56,426 per year, and jobs are growing rapidly across a range of industries. For example, companies like UPS are making substantial investments in drone delivery and will need to hire thousands of drone

31、 pilots in the coming years. Home Inspectors: If you need a job that makes about $ 60K per year, you might want to consider becoming a Home Inspector. Both Home Inspectors and HVAC Contractors earn about $ 61K per year, on average, but getting a state HVAC Contractor license typically requires about

32、 4,000 hours of training and experience (those systems are becoming even more complex), whereas a Home Inspector license only requires 360 hours of training and experience, and much of the training can be gained free of charge on the job. Massage Therapists: On average, Manicurists/Pedicurists are r

33、equired to complete more hours of training than Massage Therapists (700 hours versus 500 hours), but Massage Therapists earn almost twice as much, on average ($54,639 versus $ 32,509). Radiologic Technologists: Licensing requirements for cosmetologists（美容师）have become so onerous that candidates now

34、need 2,700 hours of training and experience on average. Thats not much less than the requirement for becoming a Radiologic or MRI Technologist (3,300 hours), a job which is growing considerably faster than average, is more recession - proof, and pays twice as much ($ 56,162 versus $ 28,608). Dental

35、Hygienists: Among jobs that require a two-year associates degree granted by a college or university, some pay substantially more than others. The average state licensing fee for becoming a Dental Hygienist is a hefty $ 1,600, but the pay bump youll receive will likely make up for it ten times over i

36、n the first year.13The underlined expression the biggest bang for your buck in Paragraph 2 probably means _.Athe job loss for your hesitation to investBa good income resulting from your skillsCa good return for the money you have spentDthe great efforts youd make to change your life.14Which of the f

37、ollowing statements is true according to the passage?AAmong the drone operators, those who work for delivery services can earn the most.BCompared to a home inspector, being an HVAC Contractor is more cost-effective.CAs an MRI technologist, youd be less likely to be jobless during an economic crisis.

38、DHigher education isnt a compulsory requirement if you want to be a dental hygienist.15Which of the following matching for the chart is correct according to the passage?A Radiologic Technologist; Cosmetologist; General ContractorB Drone Pilot; General Contractor; Dental HygienistsC Message Therapist

39、; Radiologic Technologist; CosmetologistD Drone Piolt; Cosmetologist; Radiologic Technologist5.（2023黑龙江大庆高三铁人中学校考期末）Technology is supposed to make our lives easier, allowing us to do things more quickly and efficiently. But too often it seems to make things harder. This increase in complexity, often

40、 called feature creep, costs consumers time, but it also costs business money. Product returns in the U.S. cost a hundred billion dollars a year, and a recent study by Elke den Ouden, of Philips Electronics, found that at least half of returned products have nothing wrong with them. Consumers just c

41、ouldnt figure out how to use them. Companies now know a great deal about problems of usability and consumer behavior, so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable?In part, fieature creep is the product of the so-called internal-audience problem: the people who design and sell product are not t

42、he ones who buy and use them, and what engineers and marketers think is important is not necessarily whats best for consumers. The engineers tend not to notice when more options make a product less usable. And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a

43、new way to attract customers.You might think, then, that companies could avoid fieature creep by just paying attention to what customers really want. But thats where the trouble begins, because although consumers find overloaded gadgets（ 配件）unmanageable, they also find them attractive. It turns out

44、that when we look at a new product in a store we tend to think that the more features there are, the better. It is only once we get the product home and try to use it that we realize the virtues of simplicity.It seems strange that we dont expect feature tiredness and thus avoid it. But, as numerous

45、studies have shown, people are not, in general, good at predicting what will make them happy in the future. As a result, we will pay more for more features because we systematically overestimate how often well use them. We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.T

46、he fact that buyers want bells and whistles but users want something clear and simple creates an unusual problem for companies. A product that doesnt have enough features may fail to catch our eye in the store. But a product with too many features is likely to annoy consumers.16What does the first p

47、aragraph mainly discuss?AThe benefits brought by the advanced technology.BThe recent study conducted by Elke den Ouden.CThe loss caused by the feature creep of technology.DMany problems of usability known by the consumers.17Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?AIt is the

48、audience problem that leads to feature creep.BWhat matters to designers and marketers is not good for consumers.CFeature creep brings blessings to the people in marketing and sales.DThe engineers will not pay attention to the quality of the product18What do we know about the buyers in paragraph 4?AT

49、hey are deeply convinced that all the products work in simple way.BThey are fed up with the more and more features of the products.CThey are too confident of their ability to use the complicated products.DThey are quite clear about the products which will make them happy.19What can be a suitable tit

Innovation is crucial to productivity, but on this front Britains performance has lagged behind its compet

62、itors in recent years. Its low spending on Research and Development (R&D) argues for a boost. Those who attributed the financial failure in the 1970s to the insufficiency of research funds may regard this as a threat to economic growth. Promoting innovation can quickly (um into an exercise in pi

63、cking winners - or, as is more often the case, losers.A second danger is that policy agendas get mixed up. The government has promised to level up” poorer areas of the country, so deprived towns are campaigning for more money for their universities. But trying to boost innovation by sending money to

64、 weak institutions is likely to make our leading universities lose their advantages, thus producing average ideas that could have been remarkable. Britains research-funding system has always been elitist(精英主义的). It should stay that way.The governments first move in boosting innovation was the announ

The successful translation of life science research into treatments during the pandemic suggests some inexpensive measures that can also

Covid-19 researchers were unable to gain access to different strands of health service data. The government ease

Both were crucial to the effort.A last principle is the value of connections between the government and the private sector. Kate Bingham, a venture capitalist who led the vaccin

The governments closeness to business during the pandemic has been criticized. But without it, the vaccine effort would not have succeeded.Innovation took human being

But a new sensible principles can help keep the flame burning.24What does the underlined word this in Paragraph 2 refer to?AInvesting insufficient money in innovatio

In the United States, its estimated that only 10% of blind children learn Braille. Lego Braille Bricks can help change that. The small dots on the bricks are arranged as Br

109、aille letters. Blind children can use these dots to learn Braille. Lego plans to launch Braille Bricks next year. For some schools and institutions, Braille Bricks will be free. Each will contain about 250 bricks. Along with the alphabet, the bricks will feature numbers and math symbols. The Danish

110、Association of the Blind was one of the first organizations to come up with the idea of using Lego bricks to teach Braille. Thorkild Olesen is the president of the group. Olesen is blind. He says many teachers dont have the tools and skills to help kids learn Braille. So they teach with audio tools,

111、 such as audio books. “Like any other people, we need to express ourselves in writing,” Olesen said. “Audio is great. But it can never replace Braille. Braille is the single most important tool for us in order to learn to spell correctly, write, and gain literacy like sighted people.” 45Braille is .

As scientists look deeper into our genes (基因), they are finding exam

115、ples of human evolution in just the past few thousand years. People in Ethiopian highlands have adapted to living at high altitudes. Cattle -raising people in East Africa and northern Europe have gained a mutation (突变) that helps them digest milk as adults.On Thursday in an article published in Cell

116、, a team of researchers reported a new kind of adaptation - not to air or to food, but to the ocean. A group of sea-dwelling people in Southeast Asia have evolved into better divers. The Bajau, as these people are known, number in the hundreds of thousands in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines.

117、 They have traditionally lived on houseboats; in recent times, theyve also built houses on stilts (支柱) in coastal waters. “They are simply a stranger to the land,” said Redney C Jubilado, a University of Hawaii researcher who studies the Bajau.Dr. Jubilado first met the Bajau while growing up on Sam

118、al Island in the Philippines. They made a living as divers, spearfishing or harvesting shellfish. “We were so amazed that they could stay underwater much longer than us local islanders,” Dr. Jubilado said. “I could see them actually walking under the sea.”In2015, Melissa Ilardo, then a graduate stud

119、ent in genetics at the University of Copenhagen, heard about the Bajau. She wondered if centuries of diving could have led to the evolution of physical characteristics that made the task easier for them. “it seemed like the perfect chance for natural selection to act on a population,” said Dr. Ilard

120、o. She also said there were likely a number of other genes that help the Bajau dive.49What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 1?AEnvironmental adaptation of cattle raisers.BNew knowledge of human evolution.CRecent findings of human origin.DSignificance of food selection.50W

123、man life. While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life, there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet carbon.Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is

124、a complex science in itself. Carbon starts its journey downstream when natural acid rain, which contains carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,melts minerals in rocks. This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate (碳酸氢盐) in the water that then flows in our rivers. This is a very long process, whic

125、h is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean, it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments (沉淀物) for millions of years.As carbon travels down a river, different processes may impact whether i

126、t continues to flow downstream or whether it is released into the atmosphere. For example, human engineering, like extensive dam construction, will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river. Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in som

127、e way, which causes more warming.Earths climate is closely related to the carbon cycle. We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide, but do we know enough about rivers? Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport c

Remember: wherever we live, we all live downstream.53Where is the carbon in rivers originally from?AThe atmosphere.BThe rocks.CThe acid rain.DThe upstream areas.54Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 3?ATo show how important to life carbon is.BTo explain how necessary it is to buil
