B One rural community has developed a successful public transportation system using electric cars. “My community is a rural farm worker community,” said Rey Leon, the mayor (市长) of Huron, California. “We are also the brownest city in the country, 98.7% Latino, and 12 languages are spoken here. In Huron, there is no Uber, no Lyft, and no taxis. There are very few buses, and they don’t have many routes. In this widespread community, many people don’t have cars. Leon grew up here and he learned early on how frustrating a lack of transportation infrastructure (设施) can be. “My mother got cancer, and after that, she needed a lot of rides to the doctor, and when I wouldn’t be in town or I would be out of state for work, she wouldn’t sleep at night because she was so nervous that she couldn’t find a ride, and that was disturbing for me,” said Leon. His feeling of hopelessness drove him to start a nonprofit, which is now quietly rolling around town. It’s a fleet (车队) of electric cars called the Green Raiteros. “Our mission is to provide comfortable and secure rides to medical appointment for farm worker families,” said Leon. “We’re the first electric vehicle ride-sharing program for a rural area. It was important to go electric here because this region is an area of the country battling a problem many cities have: consistently bad air pollution. “At least we can stop the damage,” said Leon. David Mercado heads the Green Raiteros. On any given day he’ll drive 50 to 60 miles one way to bring people to and from their doctor’s appointments. “I really like helping the community,” said Mercado. Most of the people Mercado helps are seniors, and many don’t speak English, so he will accompany them to their appointments if the person needs help. 4. What can we learn about people living in Huron? A. They are losing their farmland. B. They are satisfied with their life. C. They have few ways to get around. D. They cannot afford public transportation. 5. What caused Leon to start the Green Raiteros? A. His occasional chance to get out of the town. B. His mother’s growing complaints about his job. C. His hopeless search for a cure for Mother’s cancer D. His mother’s constant worries about how to see a doctor. 6. What do we know about the Green Raiteros? A. It is highly profitable. B. It helps reduce air pollution. C. It provides a lot of job opportunities. D. It is designed for senior farmworkers. 7. Which of the following words can best describe Mercado? A. Hardworking and caring. B. Modest stand ambitious. C. Creative and courageous. D. Humorous and outgoing. C As Earth’s climate has been warming, the risk of urban flooding g has grown, too. Building ponds to collect extra rainwater can restrain that flooding. But those ponds may actually add to global warming, according to a new study. Recently, Audrey Goeckner, lead author of the new study, and her team compared the uptake and later release of carbon-based gases at five ponds, which were all in Manatee County Fla. Along with a lab technician, Goeckner collected samples from samples from the bottoms of the ponds. The samples had mud above sandy material. Older ponds had deeper mud. Back at the lab, the research team measured the carbon-based chemicals in the samples. In general, older ponds released less of these carbon-based chemicals into the air than younger ponds did. At the same time, “The rate that older ponds we restoring carbon in the sediment (沉积物) increased, “Goeckner says. In contrast, younger ponds seem to send out more carbon than they stored away. “Sediment layers tend to be deeper in older ponds. They often have less oxygen available to fuel the breakdown of cells and tissues by microbes. This could slow the release of carbon-rich gases. It’s just really important to take into account how these human-made ecosystems are playing apart in the environment” Goeckner explains. Her team shared its findings in Communication Earth Environment. This isn’t the first study to show that ponds can release greenhouse gases, notes Trisha Moore, an ecological engineer at Kansas; State University. What sets the new study apart is that it is one of the first “looking at both parts of the system” —how much carbon the ponds store and how much they release. As such, she finds, “It was just a nice example of how we need to look at a system. However, she warns, this study sampled only a small number of ponds in one state. “Future research should look at what happens in ponds where the climate and vegetation are different,” Moore says. 8. What does the underlined word “restrain” in paragraph 11 probably mean? A. Predict. B. Explain. C. Cause D. Limit. 9. What did Goeckner’s team study? A. How long the ponds could be formed B. How carbon-based gases affected humans. C. How much carbon the ponds stored and sent out D. How human made ecosystems benefited the environment. 10. What did Goeckner’s team find out about younger ponds? A. They had deeper mud. B. They added to global warming. C. They stored less oxygen D. They could be used to control floods. 11. What is Moore’s attitude to Goeckner’s study? A. Objective. B. Disappointed C. Favourable. D. Opposite. D Poetry and science seem like opposites. Yet, if we look through our history, we’ll see that navigating (理解) science through poetry is not a new concept. In fact, records of scientific poetry can date back to the late 1700s. English physician and naturalist Erasmus Darwin (Charles Darwin’s grandfather) used poetry to celebrate scientific discoveries and inventions in The Botanic Garden, which he published in 1791. His book was well-received in Britain and the United States. In the next few decades, many European and North American poets followed his lead. This relationship unfortunately became weak as literature and the natural sciences gradually grew apart by the end of the 19th century. While scientific research expanded rapidly, the topics being studied also became more specialized. Experts believe that poetry — a relatively time-consuming art form — simply couldn’t keep up with the demand for more efficient science communication. All of this has led to scientific literature being gas we know it today: articles written in complicated, academic language that is not easily understood by non-scientists. In recent years, there’ve been calls to explore the intersections between science and the creative arts. For example, in 2014, Dr. Sam Illingworth, a senior lecturer at the University We stem Australia, started a weekly blog called The Poetry of Science where he reads a piece of scientific research and translates the findings into an original piece of poetry. His blog reached tens of thousands of readers, and he has since extended his work to research publications. Like many other experts, Dr. Illingworth believes that poetry can help facilitate dialogue between scientists and non-scientists, and this view is supported by studies from around the world! As we continue to make advances in science and technology, perhaps we can also turn to poetry to help us navigate the ever-growing fountain of knowledge reported by scientists each day. 12. Why does the author mention The Botanic Garden? A. To propose new means to combine poetry and science. B. To explain the historical concepts of poetry and science C. To prove poetry and science have long been integrated. D. To show poetry and science functioned differently in history. 13. What is said about today’s scientific literature? A. It is written in poetic language. B. It is unfriendly to non-scientists C. It becomes a time-consuming art form. D. It contributes to the scientific research. 14. What does Dr. Illingworth use his blog to do? A. Summarize research findings in a poem. B. Stress the influence of science on poetry. C. Encourage scientists to share their research. D. Offer readers a platform to create poems. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Science gives new life to poetry. B. Poetry and science change our life. C. Communicating science through poetry. D. Firing our enthusiasm for science education. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What is stopping you from getting what you want in life? Your friends? Your family?

First, I complained about not being able to make new friends and not knowing anything about New York. My mom said, “You’ll make new friends, and it’s not like you know anything about Baton Rouge anyway. I protested, “But I don’t want to leave Louisiana. The weather is perfect here!” My mom shot me a disapproving look and said, “You’ll get used to the weather in New York.” I remember thinking about running away and joining a circus somewhere, but then I remembered that circus animals smell really bad, and I would miss my parents. So I wandered around the house pick picking up random things, like my baseball and glove, and throwing them into a cardboard box. I felt like a big, heavy rain cloud I was hanging over my head. Within three days, all the furniture we were taking e taking with us was packed into a moving van (小型货车). Oder things were ready to be sold for nowhere near what we paid for them. Little by little our yard sale decreased until no one even looked at the well-worn coffee table, chewed-up plastic toys, and slightly damaged coffee cups—all of which I had my teeth on at one time or another The next day was Monday, and we got up early to beat the traffic. I’ll spare you the details of how boring it was to sit in a van and watch each tree as it passed by only to see another tree getting closer until it a so passed by. Halfway there, we stopped at a motel (汽车旅馆) to spend the night. This time, no one could sleep because of the smell coming from the heater in the room. By the time we finally made it to New York, it was the middle of the night, and my head was already drooping (低垂) on to my shoulder. 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。 When I woke up, I didn’t find a smog-filled city as expected. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As I got used to this new setting, I realized that I didn’t have to be afraid of change ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2022级普通高中学科素养水平监测试卷 英语试题 2024.4 （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。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

It’s a fleet (车队) of electric cars called the Green Raiteros. “Our mission is to provide comfortable and secure rides to medical appointment for farm worker families,” said Leon. “We’re the first electric vehicle ride-sharing program for a rural area. It was important to go electric here because this region is an area of the country battling a problem many cities have: consistently bad air pollution. “At least we can stop the damage,” said Leon. David Mercado heads the Green Raiteros. On any given day he’ll drive 50 to 60 miles one way to bring people to and from their doctor’s appointments. “I really like helping the community,” said Mercado. Most of the people Mercado helps are seniors, and many don’t speak English, so he will accompany them to their appointments if the person needs help. 4. What can we learn about people living in Huron? A. They are losing their farmland. B. They are satisfied with their life. C. They have few ways to get around. D. They cannot afford public transportation. 5. What caused Leon to start the Green Raiteros? A. His occasional chance to get out of the town. B. His mother’s growing complaints about his job. C. His hopeless search for a cure for Mother’s cancer D His mother’s constant worries about how to see a doctor. 6. What do we know about the Green Raiteros? A. It is highly profitable. B. It helps reduce air pollution. C. It provides a lot of job opportunities. D. It is designed for senior farmworkers. 7. Which of the following words can best describe Mercado? A. Hardworking and caring. B. Modest stand ambitious. C. Creative and courageous. D. Humorous and outgoing. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了“绿色闪电”组织通过使用电动车为一个交通不便的农村社区提供医疗出行服务，同时在改善空气质量方面也做出了贡献。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“In Huron, there is no Uber, no Lyft, and no taxis. There are very few buses, and they don’t have many routes. In this widespread community, many people don’t have cars. Leon grew up here and he learned early on how frustrating a lack of transportation infrastructure can be. “My mother got cancer, and after that, she needed a lot of rides to the doctor, and when I wouldn’t be in town or I would be out of state for work, she wouldn’t sleep at night because she was so nervous that she couldn’t find a ride, and that was disturbing for me,” said Leon.(在休伦，没有Uber，没有Lyft，也没有出租车。公共汽车很少，也没有很多路线。在这个人口众多的社区里，许多人没有车。 Leon在这里长大，他很早就知道缺乏交通基础设施是多么令人沮丧。)”可知，生活在Huron的人出行方式非常有限。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的““My mother got cancer, and after that, she needed a lot of rides to the doctor, and when I wouldn’t be in town or I would be out of state for work, she wouldn’t sleep at night because she was so nervous that she couldn’t find a ride, and that was disturbing for me,” said Leon.(莱昂说：“我母亲得了癌症，从那以后，她经常需要坐车去看医生，当我不在城里或出州工作时，她晚上睡不着觉，因为她太紧张了，找不到车，这让我很不安。”) ”和第四段的“His feeling of hopelessness drove him to start a nonprofit, which is now quietly rolling around town. (他的绝望感驱使他创办了一个非营利组织，现在这个组织正在镇上悄然开展。)”可知，Leon的母亲因患癌症需要频繁就医，但由于缺乏交通工具而感到焦虑，这让Leon很困扰，这表明母亲的持续担忧促使Leon创办了“绿色闪电”组织。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段的“It was important to go electric here because this region is an area of the country battling a problem many cities have: consistently bad air pollution. “At least we can stop the damage,” said Leon.(在这里使用电作为动力来源是很重要的，因为这个地区面临着许多城市都有的问题：持续严重的空气污染。“至少我们可以阻止破坏，”Leon说。)”可知，“绿色闪电”组织使用电动车是为了应对该地区持续存在的空气污染问题，这表明“绿色闪电”组织在减少空气污染方面起到了作用。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段的“David Mercado heads the Green Raiteros. On any given day he’ll drive 50 to 60 miles one way to bring people to and from their doctor’s appointments.(大卫·梅尔卡多（David Mercado）是“绿色闪电”组织的负责人。在任何一天，他都会开50到60英里的单程车，接送去看医生的人。 )”和倒数第二段的““I really like helping the community,” said Mercado.(“我真的很喜欢帮助社区的人们，”Mercado说。)”以及最后一段的“Most of the people Mercado helps are seniors, and many don’t speak English, so he will accompany them to their appointments if the person needs help.(Mercado帮助的大多数人都是老年人，很多人不会说英语，所以如果有人需要帮助，他会陪他们去见医生。)”可知，Mercado每天开车50到60英里接送人们去看医生，他爱帮助社区的人们以及陪伴不能讲英语的老人去看医生，这表明他是勤奋且充满爱心的。故选A。 C As Earth’s climate has been warming, the risk of urban flooding g has grown, too. Building ponds to collect extra rainwater can restrain that flooding. But those ponds may actually add to global warming, according to a new study. Recently, Audrey Goeckner, lead author of the new study, and her team compared the uptake and later release of carbon-based gases at five ponds, which were all in Manatee County Fla. Along with a lab technician, Goeckner collected samples from samples from the bottoms of the ponds. The samples had mud above sandy material. Older ponds had deeper mud. Back at the lab, the research team measured the carbon-based chemicals in the samples. In general, older ponds released less of these carbon-based chemicals into the air than younger ponds did. At the same time, “The rate that older ponds we restoring carbon in the sediment (沉积物) increased, “Goeckner says. In contrast, younger ponds seem to send out more carbon than they stored away. “Sediment layers tend to be deeper in older ponds. They often have less oxygen available to fuel the breakdown of cells and tissues by microbes. This could slow the release of carbon-rich gases. It’s just really important to take into account how these human-made ecosystems are playing apart in the environment,” Goeckner explains. Her team shared its findings in Communication Earth Environment. This isn’t the first study to show that ponds can release greenhouse gases, notes Trisha Moore, an ecological engineer at Kansas; State University. What sets the new study apart is that it is one of the first “looking at both parts of the system” —how much carbon the ponds store and how much they release. As such, she finds, “It was just a nice example of how we need to look at a system. However, she warns, this study sampled only a small number of ponds in one state. “Future research should look at what happens in ponds where the climate and vegetation are different,” Moore says. 8. What does the underlined word “restrain” in paragraph 11 probably mean? A. Predict. B. Explain. C. Cause D. Limit. 9. What did Goeckner’s team study? A. How long the ponds could be formed B. How carbon-based gases affected humans. C. How much carbon the ponds stored and sent out D. How human made ecosystems benefited the environment. 10. What did Goeckner’s team find out about younger ponds? A. They had deeper mud. B. They added to global warming. C. They stored less oxygen D. They could be used to control floods. 11. What is Moore’s attitude to Goeckner’s study? A. Objective. B. Disappointed C. Favourable. D. Opposite. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现，人造池塘在收集雨水以缓解城市洪水风险的同时，可能加剧全球变暖。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上一句“As Earth’s climate has been warming, the risk of urban flooding g has grown, too. (随着地球气候变暖，城市洪水的风险也在增加。)”以及划线单词前的“Building ponds to collect extra rainwater(建造池塘来收集多余的雨水)”可推测，划线单词的意思和“抑制、限制”相关，指的是洪水的风险增加，于是人们建造池塘收集雨水以抑制洪水。选项A“Predict(预测)”；选项B“Explain(解释)”；选项C“Cause(导致)”；选项D“Limit(限制)”。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Recently, Audrey Goeckner, lead author of the new study, and her team compared the uptake and later release of carbon-based gases at five ponds, which were all in Manatee County Fla.(最近，这项新研究的主要作者Audrey Goeckner和她的团队比较了佛罗里达州海牛县五个池塘对碳基气体的吸收和随后的释放。)”以及文章最后一段“What sets the new study apart is that it is one of the first “looking at both parts of the system” —how much carbon the ponds store and how much they release.(这项新研究的与众不同之处在于，它是第一次“同时观察系统的两个部分”——池塘储存了多少碳，又释放了多少碳。)”可知，Goeckner的团队研究了池塘储存和释放了多少碳。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In general, older ponds released less of these carbon-based chemicals into the air than younger ponds did. At the same time, “The rate that older ponds we restoring carbon in the sediment (沉积物) increased, “Goeckner says. In contrast, younger ponds seem to send out more carbon than they stored away.(总的来说，老池塘向空气中释放的碳基化学物质比新池塘少。与此同时，“旧池塘恢复沉积物中碳的速度增加了，”Goeckner说。相比之下，较年轻的池塘释放的碳似乎比储存的要多。)”可知，Goeckner的团队发现较年轻的池塘释放到空气中的碳基气体较多，这可能是因为它们的沉积物层较浅，微生物分解细胞和组织的过程较为活跃，导致更多的碳基气体被释放到大气中。这一发现与全球变暖有关，因为它增加了大气中的温室气体含量。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“As such, she finds, “It was just a nice example of how we need to look at a system. However, she warns, this study sampled only a small number of ponds in one state. “Future research should look at what happens in ponds where the climate and vegetation are different,” Moore says.(因此，她发现，“这只是一个很好的例子，说明我们需要如何看待一个系统。然而，她警告说，这项研究只对一个州的一小部分池塘进行了采样。” Moore说：“未来的研究应该看看气候和植被不同的池塘里会发生什么。”)”可知，Moore对于Goeckner团队的研究结果，并没有表达任何批评或反对的立场，而是客观地进行了评价。故选A。 D Poetry and science seem like opposites. Yet, if we look through our history, we’ll see that navigating (理解) science through poetry is not a new concept. In fact, records of scientific poetry can date back to the late 1700s. English physician and naturalist Erasmus Darwin (Charles Darwin’s grandfather) used poetry to celebrate scientific discoveries and inventions in The Botanic Garden, which he published in 1791. His book was well-received in Britain and the United States. In the next few decades, many European and North American poets followed his lead. This relationship unfortunately became weak as literature and the natural sciences gradually grew apart by the end of the 19th century. While scientific research expanded rapidly, the topics being studied also became more specialized. Experts believe that poetry — a relatively time-consuming art form — simply couldn’t keep up with the demand for more efficient science communication. All of this has led to scientific literature being gas we know it today: articles written in complicated, academic language that is not easily understood by non-scientists. In recent years, there’ve been calls to explore the intersections between science and the creative arts. For example, in 2014, Dr. Sam Illingworth, a senior lecturer at the University We stem Australia, started a weekly blog called The Poetry of Science where he reads a piece of scientific research and translates the findings into an original piece of poetry. His blog reached tens of thousands of readers, and he has since extended his work to research publications. Like many other experts, Dr. Illingworth believes that poetry can help facilitate dialogue between scientists and non-scientists, and this view is supported by studies from around the world! As we continue to make advances in science and technology, perhaps we can also turn to poetry to help us navigate the ever-growing fountain of knowledge reported by scientists each day. 12. Why does the author mention The Botanic Garden? A. To propose new means to combine poetry and science. B. To explain the historical concepts of poetry and science C. To prove poetry and science have long been integrated. D. To show poetry and science functioned differently in history. 13. What is said about today’s scientific literature? A. It is written in poetic language. B. It is unfriendly to non-scientists C. It becomes a time-consuming art form. D. It contributes to the scientific research. 14. What does Dr. Illingworth use his blog to do? A. Summarize research findings in a poem. B. Stress the influence of science on poetry. C. Encourage scientists to share their research. D. Offer readers a platform to create poems. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Science gives new life to poetry. B. Poetry and science change our life. C. Communicating science through poetry. D. Firing our enthusiasm for science education. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了诗歌和科学在历史上可以追溯到18世纪末，不幸的是，随着文学和自然科学在19世纪末逐渐分离，这种关系变得薄弱起来。而如今的科学文献对非科学家不友好，指出诗歌可以有助于科学的传播。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In fact, records of scientific poetry can date back to the late 1700s. English physician and naturalist Erasmus Darwin (Charles Darwin’s grandfather) used poetry to celebrate scientific discoveries and inventions in The Botanic Garden, which he published in 1791.(事实上，科学诗歌的记录可以追溯到18世纪末。英国内科医生和博物学家伊拉斯谟·达尔文（查尔斯·达尔文的祖父）在1791年出版的《植物园》一书中用诗歌来庆祝科学发现和发明)”可知，作者提到《植物园》是为了证明诗歌和科学早已融为一体。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“All of this has led to scientific literature being gas we know it today: articles written in complicated, academic language that is not easily understood by non-scientists.(所有这一切都导致了我们今天所知道的科学文献：用复杂的学术语言写成的文章，非科学家不容易理解)”可知，今天的科学文献对非科学家不友好。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In recent years, there’ve been calls to explore the intersections between science and the creative arts. For example, in 2014, Dr. Sam Illingworth, a senior lecturer at the University We stem Australia, started a weekly blog called The Poetry of Science where he reads a piece of scientific research and translates the findings into an original piece of poetry.(2014年，澳大利亚科技大学的高级讲师萨姆·伊林沃思博士开设了一个名为“科学之诗”的每周博客，他在博客上阅读一篇科学研究，并将研究结果翻译成一首原创诗歌)”可知，伊林沃思博士在他的博客用一首诗总结研究结果。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“As we continue to make advances in science and technology, perhaps we can also turn to poetry to help us navigate the ever-growing fountain of knowledge reported by scientists each day.(随着科学技术的不断进步，也许我们也可以求助于诗歌来帮助我们驾驭科学家每天报告的不断增长的知识之泉)”结合文章主要说明了诗歌和科学在历史上可以追溯到18世纪末，不幸的是，随着文学和自然科学在19世纪末逐渐分离，这种关系变得薄弱起来。而如今的科学文献对非科学家不友好，指出诗歌可以有助于科学的传播。可知，C选项“通过诗歌传播科学”最符合文章标题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What is stopping you from getting what you want in life?

Steps like first just saying hi to people.(解决办法是采取小步骤。第一步就是跟人打招呼。)”中的“first”以及下文“Gradually you will adapt to social situations or whatever you are afraid of.(渐渐地，你会适应社会环境或任何你害怕的东西。)”中的“gradually”可推测出，这里有一个循序渐进的过程。选项E“And then try to get more involved in conversations.(然后试着更多地参与对话。)”与上下文内容相符，其中的“then”与上文的“first”和下文的“gradually”一致，介绍了社交的步骤。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据上文“One way to get moving is to replace some of your negative thoughts with positive reasons to get going. Take out a piece of paper and a pen. And write down all the wonderful ways you can come up with to make changes that will improve your life.(行动起来的一种方法是用积极的理由来取代你的一些消极想法。拿出一张纸和一支笔。写下所有你能想到的改变生活的好方法。)”可知，我们可以写下一些能够改变生活的好办法。选项G“Focus on those positive things to get motivated and inspired(关注那些积极的事情来获得动力和灵感)”延续上文内容，指的是关注这些好的事情从而获得动力和灵感。故选G。 【19题详解】 根据下文“And then rejection from friends, family and people around us if we fail.(如果我们失败了，朋友、家人和周围的人会拒绝我们。)”可推测，空处指的是我们可能会失败。选项F“We may fear failure when starting on a new career path.(在开始新的职业道路时，我们可能会害怕失败。)”与下文一致，指的是当我们开始新的职业时，我们可能会害怕失败，因为如果我们失败，朋友、家人和周围的人会拒绝我们。故选F。 【20题详解】 空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据本段内容“What this means is not letting your thoughts and emotions run away to the future or the past. Instead, focus on the present and what needs to be done now. The future will be the now soon enough.(这意味着不要让你的思想和情绪跑向未来或过去。相反，把注意力集中在现在和现在需要做的事情上。未来很快就会变成现在。)”可知，本段讲述的不要让思想和情绪逃到未来或过去，而是专注于现在。选项B“Living in the present moment(活在当下)”是本段内容的概括。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A，B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 Over the past three years, Leah has made many changes to her lifestyle.

First, I complained about not being able to make new friends and not knowing anything about New York. My mom said, “You’ll make new friends, and it’s not like you know anything about Baton Rouge anyway. I protested, “But I don’t want to leave Louisiana. The weather is perfect here!” My mom shot me a disapproving look and said, “You’ll get used to the weather in New York.” I remember thinking about running away and joining a circus somewhere, but then I remembered that circus animals smell really bad, and I would miss my parents. So I wandered around the house pick picking up random things, like my baseball and glove, and throwing them into a cardboard box. I felt like a big, heavy rain cloud I was hanging over my head. Within three days, all the furniture we were taking e taking with us was packed into a moving van (小型货车). Oder things were ready to be sold for nowhere near what we paid for them. Little by little our yard sale decreased until no one even looked at the well-worn coffee table, chewed-up plastic toys, and slightly damaged coffee cups—all of which I had my teeth on at one time or another The next day was Monday, and we got up early to beat the traffic. I’ll spare you the details of how boring it was to sit in a van and watch each tree as it passed by only to see another tree getting closer until it a so passed by. Halfway there, we stopped at a motel (汽车旅馆) to spend the night. This time, no one could sleep because of the smell coming from the heater in the room. By the time we finally made it to New York, it was the middle of the night, and my head was already drooping (低垂) on to my shoulder. 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。 When I woke up, I didn’t find a smog-filled city as expected. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As I got used to this new setting, I realized that I didn’t have to be afraid of change ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When I woke up, I didn’t find a smog-filled city as expected. Instead, I was met with a clear sky and the soft sounds of morning in New York. The city seemed to be waking up with a gentle hum, not the chaotic rush I had imagined. I could see people walking their dogs, joggers in the park, and the first light of day reflecting off the windows of tall buildings. It was a peaceful start to what I had feared would be a daunting day. As I got used to this new setting, I realized that I didn’t have to be afraid of change. The city, with its energy and diversity, offered endless opportunities to explore and grow. I began to make friends with classmates who came from different backgrounds, each bringing something unique to our conversations. The change that once seemed so daunting now felt like a chance to broaden my horizons. I started to enjoy the new experiences, from trying different foods to visiting places I had only read about. New York was teaching me to embrace change, and I was learning to love it. 【解析】 【导语】本文通过第一人称叙述了作者从路易斯安那州的巴吞鲁日搬到纽约的生活变化。文章以作者对搬家的抵触情绪开始，通过一系列的事件和心理变化，展示了作者对新环境的逐渐适应和接受。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“当我醒来时，并没有发现预期中的烟雾弥漫的城市。”可知，第一段可描写作者醒来时对纽约的初印象，以及这种印象与预期的差异。 ② 由第二段首句内容“随着我逐渐适应这个新环境，我意识到我不必害怕变化。”可知，第二段可描写作者逐渐适应新环境的过程，以及对变化的态度转变。 2. 续写线索：初印象——预期差异——适应过程——态度转变 3. 词汇激活： 行类 ① 醒来：wake up/awaken ② 适应：get used to/adapt to ③ 搬家：move/relocate 情绪类 ① 惊讶的：shocked/surprised ② 适应的：comfortable with/at ease with 【点睛】[高分句型1].
