People duck responsibility for reasons ranging from simple laziness or a fear of failure, through to a sense of feeling
frightened by the scale of a problem or a situation. Whatever the reason, if people fail to take responsibility, they’ll fail in
their jobs, they’ll fail their teams, and they’ll fail to grow as individuals. All of this makes it important to address the issue.
Signs of not being responsible
There are several signs to watch out for. These include:
Lacking interest in their work, and in the well-being of the team
Blaming others for mistakes and failures
Missing deadlines
Avoiding challenging tasks and projects, and not taking risks
Regularly complaining about unfair treatment by team leaders and members and engaging in self-pity
Avoiding being dependent on others for work, advice and instructions
Lacking trust in team members and leaders
Ways to encourage responsibility
Start by talking
Your first step is to talk to the individuals concerned. Are there circumstances that are contributing to the situation, or
problems that you can deal with?
Communicate roles, responsibilities and objectives
Your people need to know clearly what their roles and responsibilities are. Ensure that you have an up-to-date job
description for each team member, and be as detailed as possible about every responsibility that they have.
Re-engage people
Your people will be more engaged if their work is supported with their values. Talk to them to find out what they are.
Then, illustrate how their daily tasks and responsibilities go with those values.
Give plenty of praise
Finally, be sure to give your people plenty of praise when they do take responsibility. And help them improve by
providing them with regular, effective and fair feedback.

Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a water puddle ahead on the path. As I reached the puddle,
I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack was so unpredictable and from a source so totally unexpected. I was
being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped attacking, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. I retreated a step while my attacker
relented in his attack. Yet again, I tried moving forward and I was rammed in the chest over and over again. I wasn’t sure
what to do, other than to retreat a third time. After all, it’s just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly. This time,
though, I stepped back several paces to look the situation over. My attacker moved back as well to land on the ground. That’s
when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying. She was beside
the puddle where he landed.
Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that
butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it upon himself to attack me for his mate’s reason, even though she was
clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life in case I was careless to
step on her. Now I knew why and what he was fighting for. There was really only one option left for me. I carefully made my
way around the puddle to the other side of the path, though it was only inches wide and extremely muddy. His courage in
attacking something thousands of times large r and heavier than himself just for his mate’s safety justified it. I couldn’t do
anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the puddle. He had truly earned those moments to be
with her, undisturbed.
I left them in peace for those last few moments, cleaning the mud from my boots when I later reached my car. Since
then, I’ve always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge obstacles facing me. I use that butterfly’s
courage as an inspiration and to remind myself that good things are worth fighting for.
24．Why did the butterfly attack the author?
A．To let him rescue his mate.
B．To teach him about love.
C．To protect the puddle.
D．To warn him off his mate.
25．What was the attitude of the author to the butterfly in the end?
A．Admiring. B．Annoyed.
C．Absent-minded. D．Indifferent.
26．What did the author finally do with the butterflies?
A．He cured the dying butterfly.
B．He left the butterflies alone.
C．He stepped on the butterfly carelessly.
D．He fought with the butterfly.
27．Which is the best title of the passage?
A．A battle with a butterfly
B．A walk around a puddle
C．A true story of courage and love

In an era where data centers are becoming increasingly vital for our digital society, China has begun a groundbreaking
endeavor to push the boundaries of innovation and sustainability.
Nestled off the coast of Sanya, Hainan province, China is in the process of constructing the world’s first commercial
underwater data center. This project aims to revolutionize the industry by using the power of the ocean depths while saving a
significant amount of energy and land. With the potential to equal the computational (计算的) abilities of about 6 million
conventional personal computers, this underwater data center is bound to be a game-changer.
The data center modules (模块) of China’s underwater facility are being carefully installed on the seafloor at depths of
around 35 meters. Designed to withstand the harsh underwater conditions, these modules are expected to operate sustainably
for up to 25 years. Each watertight storage module weighs an impressive 1,300 tons and boasts the capability to process over
4 million high-definition images every 30 seconds. When combined, the entire facility is projected to match the computational
power of surprising 6 million conventional PCs working together.
The construction of the underwater data center is a result of collaboration between Sanya officials and several Chinese
tech firms. With the initial deployment of one storage module in April and the recent addition of a second module, the project
is well underway. The ambitious plan aims to have a total of 100 modules fully operational by 2025, marking a significant
milestone in sustainable data center development.
The motivation behind this pioneering project extends beyond technological advancement. By choosing an underwater
data center, China is actively addressing the challenges of land conservation. Traditional data centers can occupy vast amounts
of land, often equal to the size of multiple soccer fields. In contrast, this underwater marvel takes up minimal dry space,
preserving land for other essential purposes. Additionally, the use of natural seawater cooling reduces the strain on traditional
energy sources, leading to a significant reduction in carbon emissions. This environmentally conscious approach agree with
global sustainability goals and sets an example for the industry to follow.
28．Why does China start the data centre project?
A．To push the boundaries of the country.
B．To innovate the digital field.
C．To use the power of the ocean depths.
D．To save a significant amount of energy and land.
29．Which statement is right according to para 2 and paragraph 3?
A．China has successfully constructed a data center.
B．The whole underwater facility weighs 1300 tons.
C．The facility is more powerful than a conventional data centre.
D．All the modules are not equipped.
30．What does the underlined word “collaboration” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．Cooperation B．Conflict C．Compromise D．Conclusion
31．How does the author support his opinion in the last paragraph?
A．By analyzing the fact.
B．By providing reasons.
高三英语 第 5 页
C．By making comparison.
D．By giving examples.

If you have a thought in mind that you can achieve the same goal within less amount of time and hard work by cheating
to achieve success, then you shall feel bad later in future. You may have achieved a goal but you choose a wrong path. So,
always remember that the path you choose in your life chooses your destination and then you shall not have an option to
change it.
It is good to fail though it may take you to terrible feelings of life but in return, you will learn many things that life offers.
The struggle is true but after that, the sweet of the fruit will build up your confidence to face any kinds of problem in the
future. But if you prefer cheating, then you shall always live in fright.
Honour is like a coat, which you can wear confidently. If you cheat to achieve a goal, then you cannot hide it. Billy was
lazy in hard work and used to delay all his work. He always thought of taking a fake degree to enter a big company. When
the company CEO asked him to write a program for a certain topic, then he was quite shocked as he was unable to do the
work, because he had no knowledge on the programming language and had faked his certificate.
Honour teaches you how to be disciplined. Being well-educated people, we should know what is good for us. It is always
good to fail because at the end of the day, you will learn something new that will help you grow much stronger rather than
cheating to achieve success, which will make you regret sooner or later.
All in all, success can be achieved via shortcuts but honour can never be. It’s better to live everyday with honour than to
cheat.
32．Which opinion does the author agree with?
A．No option can be changed.
B．You can’t achieve without cheating.

D．With a thought in mind you can realize your dream.
33．What can we conclude from the second paragraph?
A．Those things that hurt, instruct.
B．There is honour among thieves.
C．You’ll fail if you stop trying.
D．Face the problem and you’ll succeed.
34．Why is Billy mentioned in the passage?
A．To make you believe hiding is cheating.
B．To prove honour makes you feel confident.
C．To encourage you to wear a coat confidently.
D．To advise you to learn the programming language.
35．Which is the best title of the passage?
A．No pains, no gains.
B．Success and honour.
C．Failure is the mother of success.

Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. 36 Some are shy in real life but are
confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or
problems at home.
Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can cause problems, such as bullying (恃强凌弱) or arguments.
37 But there are also a few people who use the Internet for illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good
things and the dangers.
38 Just as you decide which TV programs are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and the chat
rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Reminding them of the risks will keep
them alert (警惕的).
39 So it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest
gadgets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards. 40 Chatters love to use
abbreviations (缩略语) such as: atb (all the best), bbfn (bye bye for now), Idk (I don’t know), xlnt (excellent).
A．Going online is great fun.
B．Computer studies are part of schoolwork now.
C．The language of chat is strange to many parents, too.
D．There are some websites that are not suitable for the children.
E．To keep children safe, your management must cover the family computer.
F．They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world.
G．Surfing the Internet takes up too much of the time that should be spent on lessons.

holding me tightly in her arms, said, “I know there’s a chance I won’t 51 it, but I love you forever.” I comforted her,
“Don’t worry, honey. We are all waiting for you here.” Then she was 52 , leaving us waiting and praying anxiously.
Finally, after the longest morning of my life, the doctor entered the waiting room smiling. “Mary is out of surgery. You’re
allowed to visit her as long as you’re 53 .” he said. 54 swept over my body and tears began rolling down my
face. Thank goodness, I had grandma back! Once we walked into the room, there lay Grandma, looking peaceful yet painful
with so many tubes 55 to her. I felt so shocked but so happy.

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a sun-kissed spring afternoon along the beautiful Maryland coast, and Jonathan Bauer, a 51-year-old former
firefighter, was enjoying a rare moment with his 13-year-old daughter, Ava. The two of them were heading home across the
Route 90 bridge, over the waters of Assawoman Bay.
However, the peace of their drive was suddenly disturbed by the noise of tires and a horrible crash just ahead of them. A
black truck was out of control, running into a concrete barrier, and finally coming to rest over the bridge’s railing(栏杆).
In that heart-stopping moment, Bauer hit the brakes in time to avoid the vehicles in his path, narrowly avoiding a crash
with the truck ahead. But his heart sank as he saw a red car sliding backward towards him. He turned left, but too late——the
car ultimately crashed into the trunk of his car.
Bauer stopped the car. “Ava, are you OK?” he asked. Thankfully, Ava emerged from the chaos, but otherwise unhurt.
Bauer, however, couldn’t stand by. Rushing to the red car, he checked on its driver. “Are you OK?” he asked the driver. She
nodded, too shocked to speak.
高三英语 第 9 页
Then, suddenly, a scream of “HELP” cut through the air, coming from the overturned truck. As the truck driver climbed
out and pointed toward the water, Bauer raced to his side. In the shallow bay waters below, he spotted a car seat and a terrified
two-year-old girl, dressed in a pink dress.
Without hesitation, Bauer instructed Ava to call the ambulance as he removed his shoes. He knew the situation was
urgent, and he had to act swiftly to save the baby. He climbed onto the bridge’s railing, preparing to make a jump of faith into
the water. He was not sure about his chances jumping from this height into such shallow water. And were there rocks this
close to the concrete pillar(柱子) of the bridge?
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Bauer jumped into the water.
