B A heart attack led Ivan Markov to take up gardening on a small patch (小块土地) in front of his council flat. Now, he’s spreading his love of nature across south London. Markov grew up on Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea, and learned to love nature in these tropical zones. In 2007, he moved to Lewisham, south-east London, to work as a teacher. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with heart failure in 2010. During the treatment and recovery, he read about a local award for best garden, and though he only had a front garden outside his flat, he thought the competition would be something to work towards. He worked on his patch for most of the year, planting seeds and plants, such as flowers, berries and herbs. Surprisingly, he won the best front garden prize. “I couldn’t believe it,” he says. “I nearly fell off my seat.” That was the start. Markov created a community nursery (苗圃) at the side of his house, and started planting bushes across the road. “I had so much beauty in my garden,” he says. “I wanted to share what I had.” He started offering guide to others. News of Markov’s green-fingered selflessness began to spread. “I go to someone’s property and give them advice on how to plant a garden,” he says. He delivers cuttings and seeds and helps people report plants, but everything he does is free. To date, Markov has helped six neighbourhoods embrace sustainable gardening. He wants to show people you don’t have to live in the country to create beauty. “It doesn’t matter how much space you have. Outside my place there’s a tiny square, tiny. I grow tomatoes there for my supper. The opportunities are endless.” Gardening gives Markov “the feeling of creating something from nothing and so much pleasure”. His dream is to create more green areas. Markov is making this corner of south-east London a paradise for all. 4. What can be inferred about Markov in paragraph 2? A. He worked as a gardener. B. He failed in the competition. C. He won an education prize. D. He turned out a green finger. 5. Which can best describe Markov according to paragraph 3? A. Smart and courageous. B. Confident and diligent. C. Generous and warm-hearted. D. Humorous and energetic. 6. What may Markov agree about gardening? A. Selflessness values a lot. B. Skilled techniques are needed. C Much space is important. D. Desire to take actions matters. 7. What is the passage mainly about? A. The origin of a community nursery. B. A creator of a green paradise for all. C. A positive spirit against difficulty. D. The harmony of human and nature. C It is universally believed that playing an instrument or singing in a choir may boost your brain. Generations of parents have told their children to practice their musical instruments. Parents have good reason to keep on top of their children’s musical education, since learning an instrument is not only associated with better educational achievement but also cognition (认知) and even intelligence scores in children. But does this musicality contribute to better cognition later in life? A new study in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry investigated this question by asking middle-aged and older people to complete a questionnaire on their lifetime musical experience before completing cognitive tests. The results showed that musical people had better memory and ability to stay focused on tasks and plans than those with less or no musicality. But how about being musical without playing an instrument? According to the study findings, singing can result in better executive (决策的) function but not memory, suggesting that playing an instrument has additional brain health benefits. Why singing would help us with our executive function is not clear and requires further investigation. However, singing has a strong social benefit when done in choirs, and there is good evidence that being involved in social activity is good for our brain health. Playing an instrument or singing seems to have benefits to our brain health in ageing, according to the study. What is yet to be established is whether this would also help prevent future cognitive decline (下降) or dementia. The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear how the findings apply to the general population, since most people in the study were female, well-educated and well-off. 8. What does the new study center on? A. The cognition improvement by singing in a choir. B. Musical people’s ability of keeping focused on tasks. C. Academic progress of children playing an instrument. D. Musicality’s effect upon better cognition later in life. 9 Who might improve most in memory according to the passage? A. Catherine who sings in a choir. B. Sam who was born in a music family. C. Mary who played the piano for years. D. Jack who is eager to get music education. 10. What does the underlined word “established” mean in Paragraph 4? A Proved. B. Started. C. Announced. D. Admitted. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A. Objective. B. Opposed. C. Unclear. D. Supportive. D It’s a common debate between couples — the perfect temperature to keep both warm but not hot. And the temperature’s setting often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men about the “correct” temperature. Research does often show women prefer a higher indoor temperature, compared with men. But why do women feel the cold more? With the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the muscles, so the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels. Women also tend to have a lower metabolic (新陈代谢) rate than men, which reduces heat production ability during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops. Additionally, the hormones mainly found in women make women’s hands, feet and ears stay around three degrees Celsius cooler than men’s. The phenomenon that women prefer warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans. Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and the young stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight. Male bats prefer to rest at the cool, high peaks of mountains, while females remain in the warmer valleys. Female mammals may have developed a preference for warmer climates to encourage them to rest with offspring (幼崽) during stages when the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature. So the difference between heat-sensing systems may provide an advantage. Couples choosing separate blankets is one way to overcome the differences in temperature preferences. In the workplace, personal comfort systems are heating systems that heat or cool and can be locally placed in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or footwarmers. These provide individualised thermal comfort (热舒适) to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space, and have been found to produce higher comfort satisfaction in the workplace. 12. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A. By giving daily examples. B. By analyzing office rules. C. By mentioning an experiment. D. By sharing a personal experience. 13. What can we know about women from paragraph 2? A. They have less fat than men. B. Their skin usually feels warmer. C. Their heart rate is higher than men. D. They are more sensitive to cold. 14. Why does the author mention the studies on birds and mammals? A. To show their preference for cold. B. To provide more evidence for the findings. C. To introduce the system of keeping warm. D. To inform us of a new scientific debate. 15. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Women have an advantage. B. Why do women feel cold more? C. How do we agree on the ideal temperature? D. Biological differences between men and women. 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Without goals you may feel like wandering through life without a plan, purpose, or sense of direction.

I glanced out the window and saw our neighbor Lucy walking back to her house across the road. As a mother, my feeling told me something happened between them. “Rose, come in here. I need some help with dinner.” She came out of her room and stood beside me. She had a stubborn look on her face—the kind kids have when they know they are wrong but have persuaded themselves they are right. “I noticed that Lucy, your classmate, came over but didn’t stay long. Why?” I asked. “I don’t like her,” Rose complained. “I wish she would stop coming over here all the time. She dresses terribly, and sometimes she doesn’t smell good. Her nose is always runny, and her hair is in a mess. None of us like her.” I knew that she referred to the popular crowd. It was a lot for a senior high student to deal with, trying to fit in with the popular crowd. It might be a shame if one of the girls in that crowd knew Lucy was playing with Rose. I explained why I felt so sad for Lucy. “You see, baby,” I began, “I know how she felt today when you were sort of cold toward her. I know because that was me when I was in sixth grade. I was the poor kid with hand-me-down clothes, the kid who others looked down on. I also know what it was like to be hungry and see other families having a barbecue out and enjoying themselves. That feeling never goes away.” I went on to tell her that I didn’t want her to be that child or adult who looked down on others. I told her I wanted her to be kind and helpful, not judgmental and hurtful. I noticed Rose had tears in her eyes. 注意： 1．续写词数应为100词左右； 2．请按下列格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Minutes later, Rose went to Lucy’s house across the road. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BCACB 6-10 CABAC 11-15 BCBAC 16-20 ABACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高一英语试题 2024.4 本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分。 注意事项： 1．答第Ⅰ卷前考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上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框。 3．全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在试卷上无效。 第Ⅰ卷(满分95分) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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．How old is Mrs. Johnson’s son now?

In 2007, he moved to Lewisham, south-east London, to work as a teacher. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with heart failure in 2010. During the treatment and recovery, he read about a local award for best garden, and though he only had a front garden outside his flat, he thought the competition would be something to work towards. He worked on his patch for most of the year, planting seeds and plants, such as flowers, berries and herbs. Surprisingly, he won the best front garden prize. “I couldn’t believe it,” he says. “I nearly fell off my seat.” That was the start. Markov created a community nursery (苗圃) at the side of his house, and started planting bushes across the road. “I had so much beauty in my garden,” he says. “I wanted to share what I had.” He started offering guide to others. News of Markov’s green-fingered selflessness began to spread. “I go to someone’s property and give them advice on how to plant a garden,” he says. He delivers cuttings and seeds and helps people report plants, but everything he does is free. To date, Markov has helped six neighbourhoods embrace sustainable gardening. He wants to show people you don’t have to live in the country to create beauty. “It doesn’t matter how much space you have. Outside my place there’s a tiny square, tiny. I grow tomatoes there for my supper. The opportunities are endless.” Gardening gives Markov “the feeling of creating something from nothing and so much pleasure”. His dream is to create more green areas. Markov is making this corner of south-east London a paradise for all. 4. What can be inferred about Markov in paragraph 2? A. He worked as a gardener. B. He failed in the competition. C. He won an education prize. D. He turned out a green finger. 5. Which can best describe Markov according to paragraph 3? A. Smart and courageous. B. Confident and diligent. C. Generous and warm-hearted. D. Humorous and energetic. 6. What may Markov agree about gardening? A. Selflessness values a lot. B. Skilled techniques are needed. C. Much space is important. D. Desire to take actions matters. 7. What is the passage mainly about? A. The origin of a community nursery. B. A creator of a green paradise for all. C. A positive spirit against difficulty. D. The harmony of human and nature. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了为所有人创造绿色天堂的创造者——Ivan Markov从事园艺事业的励志故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“During the treatment and recovery, he read about a local award for best garden, and though he only had a front garden outside his flat, he thought the competition would be something to work towards. He worked on his patch for most of the year, planting seeds and plants, such as flowers, berries and herbs. Surprisingly, he won the best front garden prize.(在治疗和康复期间，他读到当地有一个最佳花园奖，虽然他的公寓外面只有一个前花园，但他认为这个比赛将是他努力的方向。一年中的大部分时间，他都在自己的那块土地上劳作，种下种子和植物，比如花、浆果和草药。令人惊讶的是，他获得了最佳前花园奖。)”可推知，他是一个园艺能手。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I had so much beauty in my garden,” he says. “I wanted to share what I had.” He started offering guide to others. News of Markov’s green-fingered selflessness began to spread. “I go to someone’s property and give them advice on how to plant a garden,” he says. He delivers cuttings and seeds and helps people report plants, but everything he does is free. To date, Markov has helped six neighbourhoods embrace sustainable gardening.(“我花园里有那么多美丽的东西，”他说。“我想分享我所拥有的。”他开始给别人提供指导。马尔可夫的“绿手指”无私的消息开始传播。他说:“我去别人家，给他们一些如何种植花园的建议。”他运送插枝和种子，帮助人们归还植物，但他所做的一切都是免费的。迄今为止，马尔科夫已经帮助六个社区接受了可持续园艺。)”可知，他主动和别人分享自己拥有的东西，说明他是热心的，他免费帮助别人说明他是慷慨的。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“He wants to show people you don’t have to live in the country to create beauty. “It doesn’t matter how much space you have. Outside my place there’s a tiny square, tiny. I grow tomatoes there for my supper. The opportunities are endless.”(他想告诉人们，你不必住在乡下也能创造美。“你有多大的空间并不重要。我家外面有个小广场，很小。我在那里种西红柿做晚餐。机会是无限的。”)”可推知，关于园艺，马尔科夫可能会同意采取行动的愿望很重要。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“A heart attack led Ivan Markov to take up gardening on a small patch (小块土地) in front of his council flat.(一次心脏病发作让伊万·马尔科夫(Ivan Markov)在他的廉租房前的一小块土地上从事园艺工作。)”和文章最后一段“Gardening gives Markov “the feeling of creating something from nothing and so much pleasure”. His dream is to create more green areas. Markov is making this corner of south-east London a paradise for all.(园艺给了马尔科夫“从无到有创造的感觉和如此多的乐趣”。他的梦想是创造更多的绿地。马尔可夫正在把伦敦东南部的这个角落变成所有人的天堂。)”可知，文章介绍了为所有人创造绿色天堂的创造者——Ivan Markov从事园艺事业的励志故事。故选B。 C It is universally believed that playing an instrument or singing in a choir may boost your brain. Generations of parents have told their children to practice their musical instruments. Parents have good reason to keep on top of their children’s musical education, since learning an instrument is not only associated with better educational achievement but also cognition (认知) and even intelligence scores in children. But does this musicality contribute to better cognition later in life? A new study in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry investigated this question by asking middle-aged and older people to complete a questionnaire on their lifetime musical experience before completing cognitive tests. The results showed that musical people had better memory and ability to stay focused on tasks and plans than those with less or no musicality. But how about being musical without playing an instrument? According to the study findings, singing can result in better executive (决策的) function but not memory, suggesting that playing an instrument has additional brain health benefits. Why singing would help us with our executive function is not clear and requires further investigation. However, singing has a strong social benefit when done in choirs, and there is good evidence that being involved in social activity is good for our brain health. Playing an instrument or singing seems to have benefits to our brain health in ageing according to the study. What is yet to be established is whether this would also help prevent future cognitive decline (下降) or dementia. The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear how the findings apply to the general population, since most people in the study were female, well-educated and well-off. 8. What does the new study center on? A. The cognition improvement by singing in a choir. B. Musical people’s ability of keeping focused on tasks. C. Academic progress of children playing an instrument. D. Musicality’s effect upon better cognition later in life. 9. Who might improve most in memory according to the passage? A. Catherine who sings in a choir. B. Sam who was born in a music family. C. Mary who played the piano for years. D. Jack who is eager to get music education. 10. What does the underlined word “established” mean in Paragraph 4? A. Proved. B. Started. C. Announced. D. Admitted. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A. Objective. B. Opposed. C. Unclear. D. Supportive. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。这篇文章探讨了音乐活动，特别是演奏乐器和唱歌，对人脑健康的影响。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Parents have good reason to keep on top of their children’s musical education, since learning an instrument is not only associated with better educational achievement but also cognition (认知) and even intelligence scores in children. But does this musicality contribute to better cognition later in life?(一代又一代的父母都告诉他们的孩子要练习乐器。父母有充分的理由关注孩子的音乐教育，因为学习一种乐器不仅与更好的教育成就有关，而且与孩子的认知甚至智力得分有关。但是，这种音乐性是否有助于以后更好的认知能力呢？)”可知，这项新研究的重点是音乐性对以后更好的认知能力的影响。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The results showed that musical people had better memory and ability to stay focused on tasks and plans than those with less or no musicality.(结果显示，有音乐天赋的人比那些缺乏或没有音乐天赋的人有更好的记忆力和专注于任务和计划的能力)”以及第三段“But how about being musical without playing an instrument? According to the study findings, singing can result in better executive (决策的) function but not memory, suggesting that playing an instrument has additional brain health benefits.(但是如果不演奏乐器，只是具有音乐性会怎么样呢？根据研究结果，唱歌可以提高决策功能，但不能提高记忆力，这表明演奏乐器对大脑健康有额外的好处)”可知，演奏乐器对大脑健康有额外的好处。由此推知，弹了多年钢琴的玛丽的记忆力最有可能提高。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据后文“The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear how the findings apply to the general population, since most people in the study were female, well-educated and well-off.(这项研究还没有对此提供证据，也不清楚这些发现如何适用于普通人群，因为研究中的大多数人都是受过良好教育的富裕女性)”可知，这项研究还没有对此提供证据，所以不能证明是否也有助于预防未来的认知能力下降或痴呆症。由此推知，划线词established是“证明”之意，和A项意思相近。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Playing an instrument or singing seems to have benefits to our brain health in ageing, according to the study. What is yet to be established is whether this would also help prevent future cognitive decline (下降) or dementia. The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear how the findings apply to the general population, since most people in the study were female, well-educated and well-off.(根据这项研究，演奏乐器或唱歌似乎对我们年老时的大脑健康有益。目前尚不清楚的是，这是否也有助于预防未来的认知能力下降或痴呆症。这项研究还没有对此提供证据，也不清楚这些发现如何适用于普通人群，因为研究中的大多数人都是受过良好教育的富裕女性)”可知，作者即指出了这项研究积极的一面，但是也提到不足之处。由此推知，作者持有客观的态度。故选A项。 D It’s a common debate between couples — the perfect temperature to keep both warm but not hot. And the temperature’s setting often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men about the “correct” temperature. Research does often show women prefer a higher indoor temperature, compared with men. But why do women feel the cold more? With the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the muscles, so the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels. Women also tend to have a lower metabolic (新陈代谢) rate than men, which reduces heat production ability during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops. Additionally, the hormones mainly found in women make women’s hands, feet and ears stay around three degrees Celsius cooler than men’s. The phenomenon that women prefer warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans. Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and the young stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight. Male bats prefer to rest at the cool, high peaks of mountains, while females remain in the warmer valleys. Female mammals may have developed a preference for warmer climates to encourage them to rest with offspring (幼崽) during stages when the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature. So the difference between heat-sensing systems may provide an advantage. Couples choosing separate blankets is one way to overcome the differences in temperature preferences. In the workplace, personal comfort systems are heating systems that heat or cool and can be locally placed in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or footwarmers. These provide individualised thermal comfort (热舒适) to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space, and have been found to produce higher comfort satisfaction in the workplace. 12. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A. By giving daily examples. B. By analyzing office rules. C. By mentioning an experiment. D. By sharing a personal experience. 13. What can we know about women from paragraph 2? A. They have less fat than men. B. Their skin usually feels warmer. C. Their heart rate is higher than men. D. They are more sensitive to cold. 14. Why does the author mention the studies on birds and mammals? A. To show their preference for cold. B. To provide more evidence for the findings. C. To introduce the system of keeping warm. D. To inform us of a new scientific debate. 15. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Women have an advantage. B. Why do women feel cold more? C. How do we agree on the ideal temperature? D. Biological differences between men and women. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。这篇文章探讨了为什么女性比男性更容易感到寒冷，并从生物学和生理学的角度解释了这一现象。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s a common debate between couples — the perfect temperature to keep both warm but not hot. And the temperature’s setting often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men about the “correct” temperature. Research does often show women prefer a higher indoor temperature, compared with men. But why do women feel the cold more?(这是夫妻之间经常争论的一个问题——怎样的温度既能让双方保持温暖，又不会太热。而温度的设置常常成为办公室里男女之间关于“正确”温度的争论的基础。研究确实经常显示，与男性相比，女性更喜欢较高的室内温度。但为什么女性更容易感到寒冷呢?)”可知，作者通过一些日常的例子来引入文章的主题。故选A项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“With the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the muscles, so the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels. Women also tend to have a lower metabolic (新陈代谢) rate than men, which reduces heat production ability during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops. Additionally, the hormones mainly found in women make women’s hands, feet and ears stay around three degrees Celsius cooler than men’s.(在相同体重的情况下，女性产生热量的肌肉往往较少。女性在皮肤和肌肉之间也有更多的脂肪，所以皮肤感觉更冷，因为它离血管稍微远一些。女性的新陈代谢率也往往比男性低，这降低了女性在寒冷环境下的产热能力，使女性在气温下降时更容易感到寒冷。此外，主要存在于女性体内的激素使女性的手、脚和耳朵比男性的温度低3摄氏度左右)”可知，从本段我们可以知道女性对寒冷更敏感。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The phenomenon that women prefer warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans. (女性喜欢温暖温度的现象并非人类独有)”和“Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and the young stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight. Male bats prefer to rest at the cool, high peaks of mountains, while females remain in the warmer valleys. Female mammals may have developed a preference for warmer climates to encourage them to rest with offspring (幼崽) during stages when the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature.(对许多鸟类和哺乳动物的研究表明，雄性通常聚集在阴凉的凉爽地区，而雌性和幼崽则呆在有阳光的温暖环境中。雄蝙蝠喜欢在凉爽的山峰上休息，而雌蝙蝠则呆在温暖的山谷里。雌性哺乳动物可能已经形成了对温暖气候的偏好，以鼓励它们在幼崽无法调节自身体温的阶段与后代一起休息)”可知，本段提到鸟类和哺乳动物的研究是为了为研究结果提供更多证据（即女性喜欢温暖温度的现象并非人类独有）。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It’s a common debate between couples — the perfect temperature to keep both warm but not hot. And the temperature’s setting often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men about the “correct” temperature. Research does often show women prefer a higher indoor temperature, compared with men.

Read on, and you may benefit a lot from a set of steps as follows. Set a SMART goal and write it down. The first step is to figure out what you want or need to change. ____17____ It is a goal that has the following required elements: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound. Writing down your goal is also important because this simple step is proven to make you more likely to accomplish it. ____18____ After you identify a SMART goal, the next step is to make a specific plan on exactly how you will achieve it. You should break the goal down into a set of actionable steps you can take. ____19____ Besides, it’s beneficial to make a list of outcomes or specific milestones that will indicate progress. Take small, consistent (持续的) steps early on. Early on, it can be better to make small changes to your daily routine than to make big changes all at once. Consistency is key when it comes to working towards any goal. Research has shown that it takes an average person 66 days to form a new habit. ____20____ It no longer requires as much attention, time, and effort as before, thus boosting your confidence and keeping you on the track of achieving your goal. A. Reconsider your goal. B. Make an action plan to get started. C. You then need to turn this into a SMART goal. D. Some of them don’t know where or how to start. E. Keeping track of your progress helps you stay focused. F. Once this happens, the new behavior has become “automatic”. G. Identify the skills and strategies you need to complete each step. 【答案】16. D 17. C 18. B 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。这篇文章主要介绍了如何设定并实现目标的方法。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Without goals, you may feel like wandering through life without a plan, purpose, or sense of direction. Despite knowing the importance of goals, many people fail to set a meaningful goal and successfully achieve it.(没有目标，你可能会觉得自己像在没有计划、目的或方向感的生活中徘徊。尽管知道目标的重要性，但许多人都没有设定一个有意义的目标并成功地实现它)”以及后文“Others set lots of goals for themselves but end up not achieving them.(其他人为自己设定了很多目标，但最终没有实现)”可知，此处在讲述许多人都没有设定一个有意义的目标并成功地实现它，所以D项“Some of them don’t know where or how to start.(他们中的一些人不知道从哪里或如何开始)”符合此处主题，且some和other构成顺承关系。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据本段小标题“Set a SMART goal and write it down.(设定一个明智的目标并写下来)”可知，C项“You then need to turn this into a SMART goal.(然后你需要把它变成一个明智的目标)”符合本段主题，和上文“The first step is to figure out what you want or need to change.(第一步是弄清楚你想要或需要改变什么)”是顺承关系，其中SMART为同词复现。故选C项。 【18题详解】 分析设空，为本段小标题，根据后文“After you identify a SMART goal, the next step is to make a specific plan on exactly how you will achieve it. You should break the goal down into a set of actionable steps you can take.(在你确定了一个明智的目标之后，下一步就是制定一个具体的计划，确切地说你将如何实现它。你应该把目标分解成一系列你可以执行的步骤)”可知，本段主要讲述了制定一个具体的计划来实现目标，所以B项“Make an action plan to get started.(制定一个行动计划来开始)”符合文意，为本段主题。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“You should break the goal down into a set of actionable steps you can take.(你应该把目标分解成一系列你可以执行的步骤)”可知，G项“Identify the skills and strategies you need to complete each step.(确定完成每一步所需的技巧和策略)”是对前文的进一步说明，其中step为同词复现。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“Early on, it can be better to make small changes to your daily routine than to make big changes all at once. Consistency is key when it comes to working towards any goal. Research has shown that it takes an average person 66 days to form a new habit.(在早期，对你的日常生活做一些小的改变比一次做出大的改变要好。坚持是实现任何目标的关键。研究表明，一个人平均需要66天才能形成一个新习惯)”可知，F项“Once this happens, the new behavior has become “automatic”.(一旦这种情况发生，新的行为就变成了“自动的”)”是对前文的进一步说明，而后文“It no longer requires as much attention, time, and effort as before, thus boosting your confidence and keeping you on the track of achieving your goal.(它不再像以前那样需要那么多的注意力、时间和努力，从而增强了你的信心，让你走在实现目标的轨道上)”则是对F项进一步说明。故选F项。 第三部分 英语知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Esbon Kamau, an experienced Uber driver, can be on track for a better 2024 after doing something good.

I glanced out the window and saw our neighbor Lucy walking back to her house across the road. As a mother, my feeling told me something happened between them. “Rose, come in here. I need some help with dinner.” She came out of her room and stood beside me. She had a stubborn look on her face—the kind kids have when they know they are wrong but have persuaded themselves they are right. “I noticed that Lucy, your classmate, came over but didn’t stay long. Why?” I asked. “I don’t like her,” Rose complained. “I wish she would stop coming over here all the time. She dresses terribly, and sometimes she doesn’t smell good. Her nose is always runny, and her hair is in a mess. None of us like her.” I knew that she referred to the popular crowd. It was a lot for a senior high student to deal with, trying to fit in with the popular crowd. It might be a shame if one of the girls in that crowd knew Lucy was playing with Rose. I explained why I felt so sad for Lucy. “You see, baby,” I began, “I know how she felt today when you were sort of cold toward her. I know because that was me when I was in sixth grade. I was the poor kid with hand-me-down clothes, the kid who others looked down on. I also know what it was like to be hungry and see other families having a barbecue out and enjoying themselves. That feeling never goes away.” I went on to tell her that I didn’t want her to be that child or adult who looked down on others. I told her I wanted her to be kind and helpful, not judgmental and hurtful. I noticed Rose had tears in her eyes. 注意： 1．续写词数应为100词左右； 2．请按下列格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Minutes later, Rose went to Lucy’s house across the road. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Minutes later, Rose went to Lucy’s house across the road. She knocked tentatively on the door, her heart pounding. When Lucy opened the door, Rose could see the surprise on her face. “Hi, Lucy,” Rose began, “I just wanted to apologize for earlier. I shouldn’t have been so rude.” Lucy’s expression softened, and she stepped aside to let Rose in. “I wanted to invite you to our Sunday barbecue,” Rose offered. “I hope we can still be friends and enjoy some quality time together.” Lucy smiled, her eyes welling up with tears. “Thank you, Rose,” she whispered. “I really appreciate it.” And just like that, the tension between the girls eased, paving the way for a stronger friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，女儿的朋友Lucy来找女儿Rose玩，但是女儿因为Lucy总是流鼻涕，头发乱糟糟的而不喜欢她，拒绝Lucy来家里玩，作者看到后，用自己童年的经历告诉女儿，不希望她成为那种看不起别人的孩子或成年人，女儿听闻后，感到内疚，于是上门给Lucy道歉，并邀请她参加烧烤。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几分钟后，Rose去了路对面Lucy的家。”可知，第一段可描写女儿去给Lucy道歉的经过。 2. 续写线索：Lucy来找Rose玩——Rose讨厌她——了解情况——讲述自己的经历——Rose内疚——Rose道歉——Lucy接受道歉，两人言归于好。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①看到：see/observe/notice ②邀请：invite/ask/send an invitation to 情绪类 ①感激：appreciate/be grateful/be appreciative ②惊讶：surprise/amazement/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1]When Lucy opened the door, Rose could see the surprise on her face.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句) [高分句型2]I hope we can still be friends and enjoy some quality time together.(运用了省略that的宾语从句) 1-5 BCACB 6-10 CABAC 11-15 BCBAC 16-20 ABACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
