Dear Jack,
How are you doing It is a pleasure for me to recommend my favorite movie to you.
The movie I like best is named Forrest Gump, which tells a story about a man with intellectual disabilities, who is always sticking and living a truly amazing life.
Some reasons contribute to my recommendation. Firstly, the leading actor, Tom Hanks, displays outstanding acting skills, impressing me greatly. Besides, the story is really inspiring, motivating me along the life journey, especially when I am down.
The movie is well worth watching and I believe it will never fail you.
Yours Sincerely,
LiHua
读后续写(满分20分)
续写思路：
①由第一段首句“Today I am going to be the early bird,”可知，第一段可描写Lisa后悔第一天晚起迟到的行为， 下定决定今天要改变自己。结合原文第5段内容，续写第一段的重点应该强调这些改变。
②由第二段首句内容“At lunchtime, Lisa finished her lunch early and had time to go to
the library.”可知，第二段前半段可描写Lisa在图书馆阅读的情况和感受，结合原文，后半段可以描写成为“early bird” 的收获。
A possible sample:
“Today I am going to be the early bird,” thought Lisa. She raced through breakfast and hit the road. With each step, Lisa felt a surge of energy and determination, ready to seize the day ahead. Catching the earliest bus in time, she was one of the first kids to enter her classroom. Her teacher reminded her that there were only a few spots left in the Robotics Club, and if she was interested, she needed to sign up right away. Lisa was indeed interested! She wrote her name down in one of the last spaces immediately, her eyes twinkling with merriment.
At lunchtime, Lisa finished her lunch early and had time to go to the library. She browsed through the shelves, searching for a book she had been meant to read. As she immersed herself in the pages, she discovered a whole new world of knowledge and
imagination. Today turned out to be pretty awesome. “Wow, it sounds like you had a great day, Lisa,” Her mom said later when Vanessa went home and told her all about it at dinnertime. “Just call me the early bird,” said Lisa, with a grin. The early
bird indeed caught the worm of opportunity.

W: Hello, everyone. Do you know Ben Nevis It’s the highest mountain in Britain. Today I’ll tell you my experience of climbing it. It was in February. We camped at the bottom of the mountain. Although the weather forecast was perfect, with no winds or snow, there was still a general feeling of nervousness when we set out. The group soon climbed and my legs felt heavy. Being the weakest member of the group, I had to rest more frequently. The others sometimes stopped for a break to let me catch up. After seven hours of climbing, we reached the top. On a clear day, we saw the sea and the Isle of Skye right across it. On Ben Nevis, getting back to camp can be as much of a challenge as going up. When I finally came back to the tent, I couldn’t say I really enjoyed the experience, but at least I made it to the top.2023-2024学年第一学期12月六校联合调研试题

Ben Francis didn’t become wealthy through a family inheritance(遗产). Instead, the CEO and co-founder of Gymshark used his earnings as a Pizza Hut delivery guy to buy a sewing machine and start his fitness apparel (服饰) company at 19.
Eleven years later, his effort paid off. Francis, 30, who has a reported net worth of $1.3 billion, joined Forbes’ billionaires list. He’s in rare company: the list’s average age is 65 years old.
Originally, Francis and co-founder Lewis Morgan launched Gymshark as a website selling fitness products. But after getting bored with his ill-fitting clothes, Francis suggested pivoting the company.
Francis and Morgan bought a sewing machine. The pair brought Gymshark to a bodybuilding exhibition in 2013, but didn’t have any money to spend on advertising. On a whim (一时兴起), they decided to give popular fitness YouTubers free products. “My heroes were on YouTube,” Francis said. “So it would be so cool if my heroes could come to be with Gymshark at this event. I didn’t really think that much about it.” Some of those influencers went on to wear the clothes on their channels, bringing Gymshark’s sales to $45,000 per day, up from just $450.
Francis quit the CEO role in 2017. “CEO was not the right role for me when I was in my early 20s,” Francis said. “That I’d started a business which had grown very quickly didn’t mean I have the full ability to be a good leader.” He spent the next four years supporting leadership roles within Gymshark---including chief product officer and chief marketing officer – to learn more about the ins and outs of the business, before returning as CEO in 2021.
That year, the company was valued at $1.45 billion. Still, the company’s billion-dollar valuation is a small percentage of the market value of competitors like Nike and Lululemon. “I really think Gymshark can be the UK’s answer to those brands,” Francis said. “But that’s not saying that the UK is where it starts and ends for us. We also want to be a truly global brand.”
24. What makes Ben Francis special on Forbes’ billionaires list
A. His age B. His wealth C. His talent D. His company
25. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 mean
A. Taking control of B. Making the best of
C. Making changes to D. Attaching importance to
26. Why did Francis and Morgan offer popular fitness YouTubers free products
A. To win the support of popular YouTubers
B. To advertise their products in a cheap way
C. To build a good relationship with YouTube
D. To get the chance to meet their heroes on YouTube
27. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Gymshark: From a website to a big company
B. Gymshark: Taking the lead in fitness clothing
C. Francis: Starting the UK’s fastest-growing company
D. Francis: From a Pizza Hut delivery guy to a billionaire
C
In Europe, nine out of ten students study a foreign language. In the United States, only one in five does. From 1997 to 2008, the number of American middle schools offering foreign languages dropped from 75percent to 58 percent. From 2009 to 2013, one American college closed its foreign language program; from 2013 to 2017, 651 others did the same.
At first glance, these statistics look like a tragedy (悲剧). But I am starting to accept the strange idea that maybe they are not. What is changing my mind is technology.
I was in Belgium not long ago, and I watched various tourists from different nations use speech translation apps to change their own languages into English and French. The newer ones can even reproduce the tone of the speaker’s voice.
I know a foreign language is a window into a new way of understanding the world. But even beyond the fact that this idea has been rather oversold, can we really say the low level of French or Spanish we and our classmates usually picked up in school really gave us a new look into the world and our lives in it And if our goals are more limited and practical --- for instance, getting directions to the bus station in Rome-technology now makes that possible at the press of a button. With a smart phone and an app, foreign languages will no longer present most people with the challenge they once did. Learning to speak a new language well will be necessary for those who want to engage with (从事) literature or media in the original language, as well as those of us who find pleasure in it just because they are “there”. Strange as that is, it is in its way a kind of progress.
28. What is the author’s opinion about the drop in foreign language learning in the United States
A. It is a tragedy that needs to be avoided.
B. It is an unacceptable situation that harms society.
C. It is a challenge that will be overcome in the future.
D. It is a positive development due to advanced technology.
29. What is the author’s attitude towards the idea that learning a foreign language gives us a new look into the world
A. Unconcerned. B. Doubtful. C. Curious. D. Supportive.
30. How does technology influence language learning for practical purposes
A. It makes the process easier and within reach.
B. It provides an easy way to understand the world.
C. It removes the need for language learning altogether.
D. It improves the traditional methods of language learning.
31. Which of the following questions can be answered in the text
A. What challenges do translation apps bring to language learning
B. Why is it still necessary to learn foreign languages in the digital age
C. Will translation apps make learning foreign languages old-fashioned
D. How can technology help us learn foreign languages more efficiently
D
A study led by a researcher from the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Nanjing Institute of Geology and Paleontology has updated the fossil (化石) record of mosquitoes (蚊子) by nearly 30 million years and has discovered that ancient male mosquitoes also fed on blood.
The study was published online on Monday in the journal Current Biology, which discovered the oldest-known mosquito fossils --- two males dating back 130 million years near the town of Hammana in Lebanon.
Dany Azar, who led the study, said the fossils not only told us the ancient origins of mosquitoes but also their feeding habits during the early stages of their growth. “We find that the mosquito group is developing, which gives us an idea about their behavior of feeding on blood” said Azar, who has been working on the subject for more than 25 years.
Before the recent findings and their study, only female mosquitoes were known to feed on blood, which they need for protein to produce their eggs. Males, which lack skin-piercing (刺入皮肤的) mouthparts, mostly feed on honey and plant juices.
“The feeding habits of insects, such as feeding on blood, are believed to have developed from their piercing mouthparts. However, studying the development of this behavior has been challenging due to the lack of insect fossil records.” Azar said.
While reexamining the mosquito fossils last year, Azar found that their unique piercing mouthparts, very similar to those of female mosquitoes today, had been kept well. Their sharp mandibles (下颌骨) gradually disappeared over the centuries.
Based on the findings, the researchers agreed that male mosquitoes fed on blood 130 million years ago. Azar, who is now a professor at the Nanjing institute, said he hopes that joint scientific explorations can be widely carried out in the future to promote more discoveries.
Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
Female mosquitoes feed on blood for protein to produce eggs.
A minority of male mosquitoes feed on honey and plant juices.
Two female mosquito fossils were found near the town of Hammana.
Male mosquitoes have the same feeding habits as female mosquitoes.
According to Azar, why is the study on the development of feeding on blood challenging
Because his team lacks money.
Because there is no talent studying it.
Because his team wants to study another subject.
Because his team is short of insect fossil records.
What conclusion can we draw from mosquito fossils
Female mosquitoes fed on blood 130 million years ago.
Male mosquitoes’ sharp mouthparts gradually disappeared.
The mouthparts of the female mosquitoes have been kept well.
Male mosquitoes once shared similar mouthparts with female today.
What’s the article mainly about
The mosquito group is developing.
Ancient male mosquitoes probably fed on blood.
The oldest-known mosquito fossils were discovered.
Female and male mosquitoes share similar feeding habits now.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语练写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A little bird landed on the tree branch outside Lisa’s bedroom window. It sang energetically as the first pale yellow rays of sunshine appeared.
“Oh, my god, what is that noise ” Lisa complained to herself, pulling her bed sheets over her head to ignore the sound. It was no use, and she knew it. The loud sound showed the coming of the day. Lisa’s mom knocked twice on her door, and then came in with a smile. “Time to get up, Sleepyhead,” She whispered. “The early bird catches the worm, you know.”
“Ugh,” mumbled (含含糊糊地说) Lisa into her pillow. “What does that even mean ”
“It’s just an expression, Honey”, her mom replied. She gave Lisa a kiss on the cheek and urged her to get out of bed. Lisa rolled over and slept for a few more minutes.
With her mom’s repeated urging, Lisa had no choice but to get herself dressed. She went unwillingly downstairs for breakfast, ate slowly, and missed her bus. When she finally got to school, she failed to get a place in the Chess Club. She also missed the first part of math class, so she didn’t understand the lesson and had to get extra help at lunchtime. Her teacher gave her extra homework to make sure she knew it. As a result, she missed her favourite library time. This day was no fun.
The next morning, Lisa was woken up by the same loud noisy song. Instead of ignoring it, today Lisa walked over to the window and opened the curtains. “Well, hello there, little fellow,” she said when she saw the pretty bird outside, still singing happily. As she watched, the bird stuck its beak (喙) into the wet ground, and pulled out a wiggling (不停摇摆) worm for breakfast.
“Today I am going to be the early bird,” thought Lisa.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
