ian and English to help more people understand. “Looking up,I see
the immensity of the cosmos; bowing my head, I look at the multi
tude of the world. The gaze flies, the heart expands, the joy of
the senses can reach its peak, and indeed, this is true happiness
,”it says. Two days before she landed on Earth, the beauty of spa
ce and Chinese literature resonated on her Twitter account. Befor
e long, her posts went viral on Twitter with thousands of retweet
s, likes and replies.The text she quoted is from the Preface to P
oems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion,a Chinese calligraphy master
piece by Wang Xizhi (303-361) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420

Beijing. “The poem and views are both magnificent as well as hea
ling. If everyone could enjoy the same sight, a lot of pain in th
e world would be ‘dissipated’,” one user comments.As the first It
alian female astronaut in space, Cristoforetti carried out her fi
rst space mission on Nov 23,2014.In 2022, she started the second
mission in April and returned to Earth on Friday night after a 12
7-day stay in orbit.Cristoforetti has also been active in Sino-Eu
ropean cooperation in the field of manned spaceflight. She was a
working group member with Chinese counterparts to define and impl
ement cooperation in the field of astronaut operations. When not
traveling for work, she is an eager reader and has a great passio

n.CScientists have successfully implanted and integrated human br
ain cells into newborn rats, creating a new way to study complex
psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia (精神分裂症), and perhaps
eventually test treatments.Scientists can assemble small sections
of human brain tissue made from stem cells in a special containe
r. But2023届高三湖北十一校第一次联考 英语试题 第5页(共12页)in such a container,“ne
urons(神经元) don’t grow to the size, to which a human neuron in an
actual human brain would grow,” said Sergiu Pasca, the study’s le
ad author from Stanford University. To overcome such restrictions
,researchers implanted the groupings of human brain cells, called
organoids, into the brains of young rats.Human neurons have also
been implanted into adult rats before, but an animal''s brain sto
ps developing at a certain age, limiting how well implanted cells
can integrate. “By transplanting them at these early stages, we
found that these organoids can grow relatively large and receive
nutrients, and they can cover about a third of a rat''s brain,”sai
d Pasca.To test how well the human neurons integrated with the ra
t brains and bodies, air was blown out across the animals’ whiske
rs, which prompted electrical activity in the human neurons. That
showed that external ·stimulation of the rat''s body was processe
d by the human brain tissue.The scientists then conducted another
test in the opposite order: They implanted human brain cells whi
ch could respond to blue light, and then trained the rats to expe
ct a “reward”of water from a pipe when blue light shone on the ne
urons via a cable in the animals'' brain. After two weeks, they fo
und pulsing the blue light sent the rats scrambling to the pipe.T
he team has now used the technique to show that organoids develop
ed from patients with Timothy syndrome grow more slowly and displ
ay less electrical activity than those from healthy people.Tara S
pires-Jones, a professor at the University of Edinburgh''s UK Deme
ntia Research Institute, said the work“has the potential to advan
ce what we know about psychiatric disorders.”28. Why did scientis
ts research on rats instead of the special container?A. Because p
sychiatric disorders are too complex.B. Because rats also suffer
similar psychiatric illnesses.C. Because it limits the growth of
human brain neurons.D. Because human brain neurons grow too quick
ly in it.29. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A. Rats''age ha
s a significant influence on the research.B. Human brain cells ca
n''t be implanted into adult rats.C. Rats'' brain won''t develop if
they receive human neurons.D. Human neurons can grow larger in ad
ult rats'' brain than young rats''.30. Why did the researchers carr
y out one more test?A. To train rats to respond to external stimu
lations.B. To show similarities between rats and human tissues.C.
To confirm human brain cells could grow well in rats''brains.D. T
o check whether signals could be sent back to rats''body.2023届高三湖北
十一校第一次联考 英语试题 第6页(共12页)31. What is the significance of the re
search?A. It can advance more experiments on rats.B. It can furth
er our study of psychiatric illnesses.C. It can provide some usef
ul experimental methods.D. It can promote our knowledge of human
brain cells.DBefore the age of the smartphone, not everyone had c
ameras and it took skills and a good eye to capture and create a
great photograph. Today, with the huge range of camera apps on ou
r smartphones, we''re all amateur photographers, and pretty good o
nes at that, since the quality of smartphone images now nearly eq
uals that of digital cameras.The new ease of photography has give
n us a tremendous appetite for capturing the magical and the ordi
nary.We are obsessed with documenting everyday moments, whether i
t''s a shot of our breakfast, our cat—or the cat’s breakfast.Camer
as are everywhere-- a situation that is transforming the way we e
xperience dramatic events. With cameras observing most urban cent
ers, have we gotten to the point where cameras don''t need photogr
aphers and photographers don''t even need cameras? When there are
political events or natural disasters, it is ordinary citizens wi
th cell phones--not photojournalists—who often provide the first
news images. Quality still matters,but it''s less important than w
hat''s relevant and instantly shared.Before digital images, most p
eople trusted photographs to accurately reflect reality. Yet phot
ography has always more stories than we assume. Each picture is a
result of a series of decisions—where to stand, what lens to use
, what to leave in and out of the frame. Images can also be color
ed, brightened, faded, and scratched to make photographs more art
istic, or to give them an antique look. Such images may be more u
seful in communicating how the people behind the camera felt than
in documenting what was actually in front of the camera.It''s not
clear whether this flowering of image making will lead to a publ
ic that better appreciates and understands images or simply numb
us to the deep effects a well-made image can have. But the change
is unavoidable. Perhaps we are witnessing the development of a u
niversal visual language, one that could change the way we relate
to each other and the world. Of course, as with any language, th
ere will be those who produce poetry and those who make shopping
lists.2023届高三湖北十一校第一次联考 英语试题 第7页(共12页)32. What makes us all a
mateur photographers?A. That it takes no skills to take photograp
hs.B. That cell phones provide great convenience.C. That we are m
ore attracted to creating images.D. That professional standards a
ppear to be falling.33. How are digital cameras changing our life
?A. Photographers don''t need a camera at all.B. We may get the la
test images more easily.C. Natural disasters can be detected in a
dvance.D. People pay more attention to the quality of photos.34.
What is Paragraph4 mainly about?A. The creative functions of came
ra apps.B. The attractive features of digital images.C. The subje
ctive factors behind photographs.D. The negative reviews about ar
tistic images.35. What can we learn about“visual language” in the
last paragraph?A. It can be both used in writing poetry and shop
ping.B. It will contribute to our ability to appreciate images.C.
It has a great influence on the development of the universe.D. I

You don''t want to fight so you try not to bring up subjects that
lead only to pain and disconnection. The problem is that avoiding
them leads to pain and disconnection anyway. Unless you learn ho
w to have hard conversations productively, you will get more and
more disconnected until your relationship is in danger of ending.
You regularly feel misunderstood or unheard.No matter how hard yo
u try, you don''t feel understood. Perhaps your partner has expres
sed the same feeling.Over time the disconnected feeling does dama

us of my body image last year in fifth grade. One day I was walki
ng by my mirror getting ready for bed and I noticed that my stoma
ch looked big. I started to really hate that and think I was fat
even though my family always told me how skinny I was. It wasn''t
only my stomach—I started to think my nose was ugly and that my l
augh was disgusting.I was even afraid to laugh or smile in public
.Then, in the sixth grade, a popular guy in my class named Luke m
ade it worse. He told his table group that my body looked swollen in skinny jeans. I heard about it from someone else, but then Luke even told me to my face!I couldn''t stop thinking about what Luke had said. Even worse, I started to believe it was true, and I hid my skinny jeans all the way at the bottom of my drawer.I know I cared too much about what other people said and thought about me. I guess I just wanted to be liked. In fact,I really wish I could have just brushed off comments like that, but I couldn''t change my personality and what I care about that easily.2023届高三湖北十一校第一次联考 英语试题第11页(共12页)Luke''s mean comment affected me in a big way. I lost confidence in more than just my body—I started to think that I didn''t matter and that I didn''t have a place in the world. To make it worse, some people also started telling me that I was not meant to be an author, which is what I really want to be. That especially hurt and I started to feel really sad all the time.I hadn''t really told anyone how I’d been feeling until a couple of months ago when I got a call from my cousin. I''m really close to her, and hearing her voice and laugh made me feel so good inside. I thought about how I used to be that way too, and how I was so sick of feeling sad.注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Then I started telling her and it all came out.When I went back to my bedroom,I looked at myself in the mirror for a long time.2023届高三湖北十一校第一次联考 英语试题 第12页(共12页)学科网（北京）股份有限公司 zxxk.com学科网（北京）股份有限公司 |
