It trilled (啼噬)an energetic song as the first pale yellow rays of sunshine peeked over the horizon.“Oh my gosh, what is that noise? "she complained to herself, pulling her bed sheets over her head in an attempt to drown out the chirping. It was no use, and she knew it. The loud tweeting signaled the coming of the day. To confirm it, Vanessa's mom knocked twice on her door, and then came in with a smile. "Time to get up, Sleepyhead/9 she whispered. "The early bird catches the worm, you know.”“Ugh J mumbled Vanessa into her pillow. "What does that even mean?“It's just an expression, Honey," her mom replied.

Her teacher gave her extra homework to make sure she knew it. This day was no fun.The next morning, Vanessa was woken up by the same loud, twittering song. Instead of ignoring it, today Vanessa walked over to the window and opened the curtains. Soft light filled the room. "Well, hello there, little fellow,1' she said when she saw the pretty bird outside, still chirping happily. It was startled by her voice and flew down to land on the fresh dew of the morning grass. As she watched, the bird cocked its head, plunged its beak into the wet ground, and plucked out a wiggling worm for breakfast. 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 l:nHmm,nthought Vanessa,n maybe I can try being an early bird for once.”Paragraph 2:Vanessa couldn*t help humming a merry tone on her way home.宁波市2022学年第二学期期末九校联考高二英语试题参考答案一所力1-20ACCBA ABABC CBBCC BABCA二 .阅读理解21-23DBA 24-27ADCD 28-31BCAD32-35CABA36-40BEGCA三 .完形填空41-55BACBA DACBD CADCA四 .语法填空56-65growing an in be traced officially which varies when to launch appreciation五 .应用文略六 .读后续写略5 .What is the probable relationship between the speakers?A.Strangers.B.Co-workers.C.Schoolmates.第二节(共15小题;每小题L5分,满分22.5分)听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项, 并标在试卷的相应位置。听每段对话或独白前,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。每段对话或独白读两遍。听第6段材料,回答第6、7题。6 .What do we know about the woman's gloves?A.They were damaged by glue.B.They weren't made of leather.C.They were covered with paint.7 .Who might Charlie be?A.An artist.8 .A student.C.A kindergarten teacher.听第7段材料,回答第8至10题。8 .What does the woman ask the man to do?A.Reserve a book.B.Copy a book.C.Buy a book.9 .Where does the conversation probably take place?A.In a classroom.B.In a bookstore.C.In a library.听第8段材料,回答第10至12题。10 .What does the woman seek from the man?A.Tips for booking the flights.B.Advice on means of transport.C.Recommendations for the route.11 .Which route will the woman take?A.The coast one.B.The desert one.C.The rural one.12 .What does the woman say about the man in the end?A.He is a professional driver.B.He is an experienced traveler.C.He is a hard-working tour guide.听第9段材料,回答第13至16题。13 .What problem does the man have?A.He has poor work performance.B.He forgot his daughter's birthday.C.He is too busy to celebrate his birthday.14 .How did the man get to know the museum?A.He once went there.B.He learned about it online.C.His colleague told him about it.15 .What can people do in the museum?A.Make ice cream.B.Make decorations.C.Play in the pool.16 .How does the woman sound in the end?A.Angry.B.Surprised.C.Disappointed.听第10段材料,回答第17至20题。17 .What surprised the speaker after graduation?A.He found a job quickly.18 .What do we learn about the speaker's boss?A.He was a slim young man.B.He didn*t work in economics.

That could easily result in an unhappy child - but not this time.The package has come from a British start-up that hopes to equip the nation's youngsters with an endangered skill: the ability to fix gadgets when they fail. The aim is to encourage 10 to 14-year-olds to try fixing electronic devices and learn how they work, by sending them faulty toys that they have to take apart and repair themselves. The company, Team Repair, has been founded by five engineering graduates from Imperial College London. Having begun as a university project, its ultimate goal is to steer children into careers in science and to nurture (培养)a new generation of engineers and inventors.“Every month, we*ll send children an electronic gadget with a carefully planned fault/ said Patrick McGuckian,22,the chief operating officer. "The idea is that they learn key repair skills, and that they also learn the science and technology behind how the components inside it work.”It is estimated that two million tonnes of electrical and electronic items are thrown away in the UK each year. "Meanwhile, the UK has a Stem science, technology, engineering and maths skills shortage costing£1.5 billion a year/McGuckian said. “We wanted to help solve those two problems.”The service-currently in a testing phase-will cost £28 a month, with each kit designed to keep a child occupied for several hours. Once a gadget has been mended, you post it back so it can be broken again for somebody else to fix. There is also an app to provide instructions on how to perform the repair, and also mini science lessons. "As a society we've been tuned to replace rather than repair," McGuckian said. “We want to encourage a different mindset in the next generation-and on top of that, we want them to be creative, to be engineers, to be inventors that solve the biggest problems.24 .Why does the author mention the remote-controlled car in the first paragraph?B.To present a fact.D.To explain a point.B.To reduce the use of electronic items.D.To equip children with the ability to repair.B.Face-to-face guidance to mend.D.A faulty electronic gadget weekly.A.To introduce the topic.C.To make a comparison.25 .What's the aim of setting up the company Team Repair?A.To provide children with faulty toys.C.To help children learn Stem skills for free.26 . What will children get if they sign up for the service?A.The gadget after being repaired.C.Some mini science lessons online.27 .What is the suitable title for the text?A.Broken Toys Have a Good Place to GoB.Team Repair for Young People was Set UpC.The Ability to Fix Gadgets is to be ImprovedD.Broken Toys Offer Neat Fix for Skills ShortageCIt isn*t just people who get road rage. Robins, a kind of small brown European bird, in the countryside become more aggressive when they hear the sound of traffic, according to a study.When a robin arrives uninvited on another bird's territory, they adapt their songs to ward the rival away, and adopt visual displays including swaying from side to side and threateningly baring their red chest feathers, before closing in and even going on the attack. Previous studies had found that robins living in cities were more physically aggressive than their rural cousins. The latest research suggests that noise pollution could play a part.To explore the connection, scientists from UK and Turkey put a 3D-printed plastic model of a robin on another robin's place at two locations: an urban park in Istanbul that was close to busy roads, and a quiet wooded area outside the city. The model intruder (闯入者) was also equipped with recordings of robin songs. Then, through a separate speaker nearby, they added traffic noise.“In normally quiet surroundings, we found that additional traffic noise leads to rural robins becoming more physically aggressive, for instance approaching the model bird more closely," said Dr Qaglar Akcay, the study's lead author. But when they played the extra traffic to the urban birds, they did not become any more aggressive-instead they responded by singing less, suggesting they had perhaps learned to “sit out“ temporary increases in noise.Akcay and his team believed that the traffic noise was interfering with robins1 natural communication through song. "The high levels of noise that exist day and night in urban habitats, such as from traffic or construction equipment, may permanently interfere with the efficient transmission of acoustic (声音的)signals and this is likely to be the key reason why urban robins are typically more aggressive than rural birds J he said.28 . What kind of bird are robins?A.Mild.B.Competitive.C.Cooperative.D.Graceful.29 .How did the scientists conduct the study?A.By analyzing previous research data.B.By citing the famous scientists* words.C.By comparing robins* different responses.D.By recording the model intruder's behavior.30 .When exposed to extra traffic noise, how may urban robins react?A.Sing not as frequently as usual.B.Ward the rival away by singing more.C.Sway more violently from side to side.D.Approach the model bird more closely.31 .What is Akcay's attitude to the future of robins?A.Unclear.B.Indiff erent.C.Optimistic.D.Concerned.For more than a century, Paul Cezanne (1839-1906)has been celebrated as an artist's artist. For nearly as long, the banker's son from Aix-en-Provence has been credited with laying the groundwork for the 20th-century avant-garde (前卫派思想).But the curators (负责人)of the largest Cezanne exhibition since 1997 decided that more could be learned about the great French post-impressionist simply by looking more closely at his paintings.Of the 80 oil paintings in this show, which will later travel to London's Tate Modern, eight have been subjected to infrared X-ray and other imaging technologies to determine how he made each mark. The curators' conclusion: What made Cezanne a pioneer and enduring inspiration is that in every landscape, still life, portrait, and figure painting, he was trying to communicate emotion with every brushstroke, building each image sensation by sensation.Unlike other artists, Cezanne seems “less concerned about what he is depicting than how he is building a picture,“ said Kyle MacMillan in the Chicago Sun Times. In paintings such as Still Life With Apples (1893- 94),“standard rules of perspective are overthrown and the objects look like they are about to slide off the table?9 But the impact that Cezanne had is obvious in this show, which “goes to great lengths“ to highlight which works were collected by fellow artists, said J. S. Marcus in The Wall Street Journal. Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse all owned Cezannes, and Jasper Johns has loaned the show one of Cezanne!s drawings of f
