The four researchers at Bristol University were accused of weakening years of campaigning to warn people of the dangers of too much sun. Experts agree exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays increases the risk of skin cancer and accelerates the signs of aging. But in the British Medical Journal the Bristol team led by Andrew Ness wrote, “There is evidence that the potential benefits of exposure to sunlight may outweigh the widely publicized negative effects on the incidence of skin cancer.”Vitamin D, made in the body in reaction to sunlight, prevented rickets (软骨病) in children and was associated with a protective effect against heart disease.Sunshine was also useful for treating certain skin conditions and there was also the “feel good effect of lying or sitting in the sun”. The researchers said it was too early to advise people to spend more time in the sun, but suggested the basis of the current advice to cover up should be reviewed.“Perhaps, while we await the conclusions of such formal analyses, those of us who enjoy spending time in the sun can rest assured that the chance that we will be one of the people dying from the sun small.” they added.Their article was strongly criticized by health campaigners who claimed it was unbalanced and not backed by scientific evidence. Britain’s Health Education Authority said skin cancer was the most common form of cancer in the country, with more than 50, 000 new cases diagnosed each year and more than 2, 000 people dying from the disease. It said treatment almost always required surgery and almost 50 percent of cases were fatal. The authority’s skin cancer campaign manager Christopher New said, “We are very disappointed with this controversial article. It doesn’t have enough supporting evidence and runs the risk undoing many years of “good health education””.24.What can we learn about the four researchers in the first paragraph A. They were accused of warning people of the danger of too much sun.B. They agreed exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays accelerated people’s aging.C. They publicized the negative effect of the sun on the incidence of skin cancer.D. They believed being exposed to sunlight might be beneficial to people’s health.25.What will the Bristol team support A. Children should cover up in the sunlight.B. Sunshine helps to treat some skin conditions.C. Those enjoying the sun are free of skin cancer.D. People should currently spend more time in the sun.26.What does the “good health education” in the last paragraph refer to A. Warning people of the danger of too much sunlight.B. Informing people of the benefits of exposure to sunlight.C. Convincing people of the effect of sun on skin conditions.D. Reminding people of the good feeling of lying or sitting in the sun.27.What is the main idea of this passage A. More people are dying from skin cancer.B. Sunshine does more harm than good to skin.C. Sunshine can prevent heart disease in children.D. A study found sunshine has lots of benefits.CFor some of us. it needs not be a long life as long as it’s been a fulfilling life of achievements. happiness and no regrets. But. how many of us actually go on to experience that entirely It sometimes sounds more like a pipe dream—a fantasy rather than reality.It’s a common misconception that you must give up certain parts of your full life to fulfil others—from work. to health. to relationships. Maybe you’re overwhelmed(压垮)by all the daily demands. Maybe you don’t feel like you have enough time and energy. Or maybe you just haven’t discovered your own strengths and potential to achieve everything you want in life. and so when in times of difficulty. you just give up trying to balance them all.And then you’ll also get comments from some. saying that this ‘fulfilling life’ is only possible if you’re so rich that you don’t have to care about working. paying the bills or providing for your family. While there is some truth to that. I’m happy to say that financial(财务)freedom isn’t the only answer to living a fulfilling life.But here’s the truth： We cannot afford to keep trading one important part of our lives to achieve another. No one can achieve true happiness this way. The reality is that different aspects of your life are interlinked and interdependent. Everything influences the other; for example. a bad family life can bring down your career. and poor health can bring down everything.What you don’t realize is that you will pay great consequences later if you trade off one thing to achieve another right now. And these consequences are almost irreversible(不可逆转的). The secret to have a fulfilling life is to not just balance all areas of your life—but to do them all well. too.28.Why do many people give up balancing their lives A. They have a wrong idea of full life. B. They are not gifted to live a full life.C. They lack abilities to deal with difficulty. D. They don’t intend to achieve all the goals.29.What matters most for happiness according to the author A. Wealth. B. Career. C. Health. D. Family.30.Which opinion may the author agree with A. You have to trade health for wealth.B. A full life requires being good in all areas.C. Financial freedom guarantee a fulfilling life.D. You have to lose something in tough times.31.What can be the best title of this text A. What Is Important in Life B. How Can We Live Longer C. What Is the Meaning of Life D. How Can We Live a Full Life DIn the digital age, we rely on technology such as social media in trying to build interesting and varied lives. Social networking sites like Facebook are designed and promoted to make us believe enthusiastically that they are able to open up new experiences for us. There are constant notifications(通知)and updates, urging us to check-in to find out what is new.But if we do not use the technology wisely, we can end up becoming overly attached and trapped in a cycle of social media FOMO, a sign of deeper unhappiness. FOMO, or fear of missing out, is a fear that exciting or interesting events are happening somewhere else and that we are not able to join.People who experience high levels of FOMO have been found to be more likely to give in to urges to write and check text messages while driving, as well as to use Facebook more often directly after waking, while going to sleep and during meals.When it comes to lasting happiness, it is best not to give in to FOMO, but rather to deal with the cycle of desires that fuel it. Hard as it is, we are better off working toward facing the fearful reality that we cannot experience everything we might like than to get caught in a cycle of checking behaviors that only cause anxiety.If we have become used to using social media as part of our attempts at living interesting lives, we must admit that it is not easy to change our approach. But change is almost always worthwhile in the long run.The fact that FOMO is so common in our digital age is a sign that there is something wrong with the way we are pursuing happiness and that we are not as happy as we might think we are. It should warn us that, in our eagerness to use digital technology to try to make ourselves happier, we may unintentionally(无意之中)be bringing on exactly the opposite result.32.What is the first paragraph mainly about A. $105 B. $55 C. $35 D. $50A. The digital age has arrived.B. Sites give netizens useful experiences.C. People have fallen into modern technology.D. Social media are designed to attract public attention.33.Which of the following could be regarded as social media FOMO A. Failing to use Facebook. B. Answering a call during shopping,C. Reading text messages on reaching offices. D. Checking Facebook while driving.34.Why does the author suggest avoiding FOMO A. To gain long-time happiness. B. To speed the cycle of desires.C. To work much better. D. To reduce fearful reality.35.What can be learned from the last paragraph A. Everybody has experienced FOMO.B. Digital technology may make us unhappier.C. Pursuing happiness is a sign of the digital age.D. People may unintentionally get lost in technology.第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Most travelers face the language difficulty in Italy nowadays. ___36___ There are a few things that you should know before you step out of the airport.There’s no such thing as "Italian food".In Italy each area has its own personality,its own dialect,and its own food. ___37___ Get to know what's Produced locally and what's in season,and you'll be eating the freshest and best of what that area has to offer.___38___Most Italians pay for things on a day-to-day basis with cash from their morning coffee to dinner.Those of you who have grown used to paying for milk and bread at the grocery store with a card find it very difficult to travel.The waiter isn't being rude when he leaves you alone to eat.In Italy, after your meal is served,you may not see the waiter at your table again until it's time to clear your plates.This is not the waiter being rude. ___39___An empty restaurant doesn't mean the place is bad.Many times I’ve gone into restaurants in Italy at what I thought was dinner time only to find the place nearly empty. ___40___ The dinner hour in many cities doesn't start until at least 8 pm.Many restaurants in bigger cities and towns will be open earlier than that,but the earlier opening time isn't for the locals.It’s for visitors.A.

He had been too busy practicing what he was going to say to realize the person in front of him had stepped aside. Of course, this was just a formality(走形式). He always ordered the same thing, and the food was hardly the reason he was there. The real reason was Michelle. His morning visits to the coffee shop had become a priority since she started working there three weeks ago. Michael approached the counter, squeezing(紧捏)the loose bills in his hand nervously. But before he could get out the words, Michelle cheerily greeted him.“Oh, hello there! Same thing today, Michael ”“Yes, please.” As she prepared his standard order of a medium coffee and a blueberry muffin(玛芬), he went through all of the different things he wanted to say—How are you What do you like to do Do you want to have lunch some time But by the time she turned around and handed him his order, all he could muster(鼓起勇气说)was, “Nice day, isn’t it ” Michelle smiled and gave a sort of chuckle(轻声地笑)before nodding. Michael could feel his cheeks turning red. He could hear the man behind him start to tap his foot louder and faster. He took his order and started to walk away – but then felt a rush of bravery. Why not just ask her What’s the worst that could happen He spun around quickly, immediately colliding(碰撞)with the impatient man who had been standing behind him. Or rather, his very hot cup of coffee collided with the man’s arm.Horror came over Michael’s face as he looked at the man’s coffee-soaked suit sleeve and then at Michelle’s surprised face. He reached for napkins on the counter, and tried to pat the coffee off of the man’s suit. By now, the man was furious(暴怒的). He grabbed the napkins from Michael’s hand. Michael was so embarrassed. He had no idea what he should do. 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。Paragraph 1:At a loss for words, he sheepishly held out his muffin to the stranger as an apology. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Michael and Michelle started to laugh. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________2023年新高二开学摸底考试卷(全国通用)01英 语(考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分)注意事项：1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。3．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。第一部分 听力(共两节，满分 30 分)第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话仅读一遍。1.

One-third of them wanted to help seniors.C. 30% of them felt too shy to talk with seniors.【答案】18. C 19. A 20. C【原文】M: According to the survey of 1, 896 seniors in the United Kingdom, more than one in five would have a conversation with no more than three people over the span of an entire week! That translated to nearly 2. 6 million elderly folks who didn’t enjoy regular human contact on a daily basis. Perhaps the most alarming is that researchers said an alarming 225,000 individuals would go a week without talking to anyone face-to-face.The survey also revealed that over half of seniors were willing to take early retirement. They said they knew they could be taken good care of if they took their children’s advice, moving into the nursing homes. But they were unable to accept this idea. They were so scared of leaving their only homes they had lived for most of their lives.Meanwhile, another survey of 2, 000 people aged 16—45 in the UK showed that 55% of younger folks admitted to worrying about being lonely in their elder years. With that in mind, two-thirds of those people said they wanted to do something to help boost the confidence of a lonely senior, but 37% worried that such a gesture wouldn’t be well-received. Another 30% felt too shy to spark up a conversation with seniors. 27% admitted they were not sure how to help, and a quarter said they were simply too busy themselves.第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。A(四会中学、广信中学2022—2023学年高二第一次教学质量联合检测)Looking for books suitable for your juniors Here are what our editors recommend:Room for EveryoneMusa and Dada drive to the shore — but the bus stops many times: “You need a ride Come in!

The four researchers at Bristol University were accused of weakening years of campaigning to warn people of the dangers of too much sun. Experts agree exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays increases the risk of skin cancer and accelerates the signs of aging. But in the British Medical Journal the Bristol team led by Andrew Ness wrote, “There is evidence that the potential benefits of exposure to sunlight may outweigh the widely publicized negative effects on the incidence of skin cancer.”Vitamin D, made in the body in reaction to sunlight, prevented rickets (软骨病) in children and was associated with a protective effect against heart disease.Sunshine was also useful for treating certain skin conditions and there was also the “feel good effect of lying or sitting in the sun”. The researchers said it was too early to advise people to spend more time in the sun, but suggested the basis of the current advice to cover up should be reviewed.“Perhaps, while we await the conclusions of such formal analyses, those of us who enjoy spending time in the sun can rest assured that the chance that we will be one of the people dying from the sun small.” they added.Their article was strongly criticized by health campaigners who claimed it was unbalanced and not backed by scientific evidence. Britain’s Health Education Authority said skin cancer was the most common form of cancer in the country, with more than 50, 000 new cases diagnosed each year and more than 2, 000 people dying from the disease. It said treatment almost always required surgery and almost 50 percent of cases were fatal. The authority’s skin cancer campaign manager Christopher New said, “We are very disappointed with this controversial article. It doesn’t have enough supporting evidence and runs the risk undoing many years of “good health education””.24.What can we learn about the four researchers in the first paragraph A.
