Special English is a simple and standardized English radio program arranged by VOA for listeners who are beginning to learn English in non-English speaking countries around the world. It officially began broadcasting in October 1959. The famous American lexicologist S.B. Flexmer identified three criteria for Special English, that is, what makes it “special”: ●It writes and broadcasts in short and clear sentences; ●It broadcasts at a rate of 90 words per minute, or 2/3 of Standard English; ●It is a form of American English composed mainly of the 1500 basic words. Special English programs can be divided into two categories: news programs and feature programs. News program VOA Special English news broadcasts provide listeners with worldwide information on politics, economics, military affairs, diplomacy, international relations, religion, weather, and all kinds of important events and wonders. They are broadcast to Southeast Asia five times a day, twice in the morning and three times in the evening. Feature Program From the perspective of time, Special English feature programs can be divided into two categories: one is every five minutes, and the other is every fifteen minutes. The latter consists of seven different sub-features, which are repeated four times a day on a weekly cycle, but the two features on Sunday and Saturday are broadcast only three times a night, each lasting about 10 minutes, followed by each five-minute feature. 1. Which is one of the criteria for Special English? A. It’s a basic English radio program. B. It relies on a mere 1500 basic words. C. It plays at a speed of 90 words per minute. D. It’s aimed at those starting to learn English. 2. What can we learn about the two programs? A. Both of them are broadcast repeatedly. B. They are broadcast almost at the same time. C. Listeners can listen to news program in the afternoon. D. Each five-minute program consists of seven sub-features. 3. Who are most likely to listen to Special English? A. Radio program enthusiasts. B. Western culture lovers. C. Language learners. D. English beginners. B My earliest memories are of having two very old parents. My mother was 42 when I was born, which back then was seriously old to have a baby, and a little risky too. My oldest brother was 14 years older than me and the middle brother ten years older. When I was quite small they had both left home. I grew up almost like an only child. I tended to amuse myself and play in the garden and draw and paint and shoot. I suppose you do learn as an only child that you’re going to have to get on with life by yourself. You’re going to have to find things that excite and move you. I was shipped off to Sunday school in Edinburgh when I was seven years old. I felt a proper Charlie, because I was the only little boy among the Sunday school children who was wearing a kilt (苏格兰短裙). I also felt rather threatened by the stories we were taught. Old-school Christianity was filled with punishment and anger that I didn’t really enjoy. For the rest of my attendance at Sunday school, I didn’t get closer than climbing a tree outside the church and hiding in the branches, waiting until the children came out, then dropping down to join the school team and walking out of the church to be met by my parents, who were then reassured that I’d been to Sunday school as I was supposed to. When my parents moved to Blackpool, my aunt, who came to live with us, took me to two or three concerts. I got to see Cliff Richard, Adam Faith and the early Rolling Stones performing at Blackpool’s ABC Theatre-which, when I was 12 years old, was an important moment of recognising that that isn’t what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, because the music they played was not what I was enjoying. I was drawn to the blues and Black American folk music. It felt very real and human. 4. What do we know about the author’s childhood? A. Many things moved him. B. He had to do many things on his own. C. He liked playing in the garden. D. He got on badly with his brothers. 5. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “a proper Charlie” in paragraph 2? A. A real fool. B. An independent child. C. A capable student. D. A clever student. 6. What experiences did the author have in his Sunday school? A. He liked wearing a kilt. B. He often studied in the trees. C. He was threatened by others. D. He was often absent from school. 7. What can we infer from the text? A. His brothers were not important to him. B. He never walked into the church. C. His parents took him to some concerts. D. The blues caught his interest. C Many people consider mosquito bites just part of summer living but these insects can carry diseases. Mosquitoes are actually some of the most dangerous creatures on the planet. According to the World Health Organization, mosquitoes cause over 700,000 deaths every year. But there is new hope in the battle between man and mosquito. Scientists at Auburn University, in Alabama, may have found the secret to stopping mosquito-borne diseases. “We have created a type of fabric that blocks mosquito bites,” says John Beckmann, who leads the lab at the university, Beckmann remembered a camping trip from which he returned riddled with kisses from mosquitoes despite wearing a long-sleeved shirt. “People say, ‘wear long sleeves’ a lot,” Beckmann said, “but long sleeves don’t block mosquitoes.” While some companies are making what they state is bite-proof clothing, the clothing includes some harmful chemicals or is made of thick fabrics that are too hot to wear and are easily beaten by mosquitoes. That’s because there are holes in the makeup of their fabrics that mosquitoes and other biting insects can get through. The key is to discover a fabric that can remove these holes and is still cool enough to wear in hot weather. “That is the reason why this project is not as easy as people think” said Beckmann. “You obviously need your clothes to be breathable. But that usually comes at the cost of letting mosquitoes bite through them. So the basic problem is keeping the holes there while blocking tiny mosquito mouth-parts at the same time.” The team tried by using a computer numerical control knitting (编织) machine that could be programmed with different designs until they found a bite-proof one The end result is a product that the researchers compare to popular high-quality athletic wear. But the researchers are still not satisfied and will be spending the next year perfecting the comfort of the material and finally creating a clothing line. The hope is that finally any type of fabric can be knitted into the lab’s design, so that all kinds of clothing companies from baby clothing producers to dress designers could create bite-proof clothing. 8. What happened to Beckmann on a camping trip? A. He was badly bitten by mosquitoes. B. He discovered a new kind of mosquito. C. He felt unbearably hot with long-sleeved clothes. D He mastered some skills in dealing with mosquitoes. 9. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The popularity of bite-proof clothing. B. Disadvantages of existing bite-proof clothing. C. Advancements in bite-proof clothing. D. Comparisons between different types of bite-proof clothing. 10. Which of the following is the goal of the researchers? A. Persuade more researchers to join in. B. Make the design applicable to different fabrics. C. Find a fabric suitable for all designs. D. Get funded by clothing companies. 11. what is the best title for the text? A. Mosquitoes: The Silent Killers B. The Battle Against Mosquitoes C. A Step Towards a Bite-Free Future D. Proven Ways to Prevent Mosquito Bites D As AI art generators take the world by storm, some people wonder if their works should count as art at all. The technology is still developing and has some wrinkles to iron out (消除), which means there are indeed flaws to consider alongside the incredible artwork a good artificial intelligence can produce. Art is classed as the product of imagination, skill, experience, and emotion, usually meant to represent something for the public to enjoy. Artists spent time and effort putting their inner worlds onto these works. Machine intelligence also puts a lot of work into sorting through tons of data, linking someone’s prompt (指令) to datasets, and trying to represent it as best as possible. The difference is that the AI is driven by commands instead of an emotional desire to express itself. AI painters can produce over 1,000 original works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced print of the Mona Lisa is worth less than the actual Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Why? Scarcity — there’s only one of the original. Should anyone pay for these things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces up for sale, what should the price be? AI art involves a program mimicking (模仿) the work of existing artists to create a new piece according to the request of a human. But who made the artwork, the machine or its user? And can the original artists sue for (控告) copyright violation? Such questions complicate the merging of artificial intelligence and the art industry, while fueling arguments against recognizing AI-generated art as marketable artistic products. Once we’ve answered those questions we can tackle the really big one: When an AI-generated painting wins an award, who gets the prize? 12. How is AI art different from human art? A. It is the product of experience. B. It combines different styles of work. C. It is not a mirror of artists’ emotions. D. It doesn’t cost much money to produce. 13. Why does the writer mention Mona Lisa in paragraph 3? A. To present the potential trouble with the value of AI art. B. To introduce a new way of preserving art masterpieces. C. To show the advantages of AI painters over human artists. D. To prove the popularity of classic artworks among viewers. 14. What can we infer from paragraph 4? A. AI art promotes the sale of artistic products. B. AI art makes copyright issues more complicated. C. Artists can create more works with the help of AI. D. There will be fierce competition in the art industry. 15. What is the purpose of the text? A. To persuade. B. To inform. C. To describe. D. To argue. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Leave no track” is popular among many campers who are concerned about our environment and favor sustainable (可持续的) travel. Its goal is simple; to minimize human-created impacts on the natural world. ____16____ Reject plastic and paper.

Not only did we go to the same school, but our evenings and weekends were spent together too. It was like we were inseparable. I never felt that I needed any friends other than them. Unexpectedly, one evening their parents shared the news of them moving to another country-Australia. I was shocked to realize that we would never be together, started recalling all the good times we had spent together, such as playing in the school breaks, the play dates, and all the fun things we did. Was it all going to end? When we had been through so many highs and lows together, shared secrets and supported each other through thick and thin, their moving away felt like my heart was being taken away. The news of their departure left me feeling empty and lost. I was thinking about the biggest change that I was going to face in a few days, it was a difficult pill to swallow, but I knew I must move on. Though it wasn’t easy at first, I was trying my level best to beat the mental pain I was in. After hearing the news, every day felt like a struggle. The school didn’t feel the same; the lunchbreaks had no purpose. Soon there would be no one to compare the test marks with, homework remarks would not excite me like before, and so on. I couldn’t help but feel lost and alone already. 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。 Seeing my condition, my family advised me to make the most of the time that was left before they moved. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Saying goodbye wasn’t easy, but it set my heart at ease to realize that we could still be the closest friends. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语试题卷 注意事项: 1.答题前,考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2.考生必须把所有的答案填写在答题卡上,答在试卷上的答案无效。 3.选择题每小题选出答案后,用 2B 铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案选项框涂黑。如需改动,用橡皮擦擦干净后,再选涂其它答案选项框,不要填涂和勾划无关选项。其他试题用黑色碳素笔作答,答案不要超出给定的答题框。 第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分)略 第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A SPECIAL ENGLISH The English language programs of the Voice of America (VOA) can be divided into two types according to the speed of broadcasting: Standard English and Special English. Special English is a simple and standardized English radio program arranged by VOA for listeners who are beginning to learn English in non-English speaking countries around the world. It officially began broadcasting in October 1959. The famous American lexicologist S.B. Flexmer identified three criteria for Special English, that is, what makes it “special”: ●It writes and broadcasts in short and clear sentences; ●It broadcasts at a rate of 90 words per minute, or 2/3 of Standard English; ●It is a form of American English composed mainly of the 1500 basic words. Special English programs can be divided into two categories: news programs and feature programs. News program VOA Special English news broadcasts provide listeners with worldwide information on politics, economics, military affairs, diplomacy, international relations, religion, weather, and all kinds of important events and wonders. They are broadcast to Southeast Asia five times a day, twice in the morning and three times in the evening. Feature Program From the perspective of time, Special English feature programs can be divided into two categories: one is every five minutes, and the other is every fifteen minutes. The latter consists of seven different sub-features, which are repeated four times a day on a weekly cycle, but the two features on Sunday and Saturday are broadcast only three times a night, each lasting about 10 minutes, followed by each five-minute feature. 1. Which is one of the criteria for Special English? A. It’s a basic English radio program. B. It relies on a mere 1500 basic words. C. It plays at a speed of 90 words per minute. D.

Listeners can listen to news program in the afternoon. D. Each five-minute program consists of seven sub-features. 3. Who are most likely to listen to Special English? A. Radio program enthusiasts.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。介绍了VOA为非英语国家初学者设计的简化英语广播节目Special English的相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二个黑圈内容“It broadcasts at a rate of 90 words per minute, or 2/3 of Standard English; (它以每分钟90个词的速度播放,是标准英语的2/3)”可知,C选项It plays at a speed of 90 words per minute. (它的播放速度是每分钟90个词) 是Special English的一个标准。故选C项。 2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Feature Program中的“The latter consists of seven different sub-features, which are repeated four times a day on a weekly cycle, but the two features on Sunday and Saturday are broadcast only three times a night, each lasting about 10 minutes, followed by each five-minute feature. (后者由七个不同的子特辑组成,每周循环播放四次,但在周六和周日的两个特辑只在晚上播放三次,每个大约10分钟,随后是每个五分钟的特辑。)”可以确定A选项Both of them are broadcast repeatedly. (它们都被重复播放) 是关于这两个节目的正确信息。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Special English is a simple and standardized English radio program arranged by VOA for listeners who are beginning to learn English in non-English speaking countries around the world. (Special English是由VOA为全球非英语国家中刚开始学习英语的听众安排的一种简单和标准化的英语广播节目。)”可以确定D选项English beginners. (英语初学者) 是最有可能听Special English的人群。故选D项。 B My earliest memories are of having two very old parents.

His parents took him to some concerts. D. The blues caught his interest. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的童年经历以及是如何开始对蓝调音乐感兴趣的。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I tended to amuse myself and play in the garden and draw and paint and shoot. I suppose you do learn as an only child that you’re going to have to get on with life by yourself. You’re going to have to find things that excite and move you.(我喜欢自娱自乐,在花园里玩耍,画画,射击。我想,作为家中唯一的孩子,你确实学会了必须独自生活。你必须找到让你兴奋和感动的东西)”可知,作者童年不得不自己做很多事情。故选B。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“because I was the only little boy among the Sunday school children who was wearing a kilt (因为我是主日学校孩子中唯一一个穿着苏格兰方格呢短裙的小男孩)”可知,作者是主日学校里唯一一个穿苏格兰裙的小男孩,所以作者觉得自己像个傻瓜。故划线词意思是“一个真正的傻瓜”。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For the rest of my attendance at Sunday school, I didn’t get closer than climbing a tree outside the church and hiding in the branches, waiting until the children came out, then dropping down to join the school team and walking out of the church to be met by my parents, who were then reassured that I’d been to Sunday school as I was supposed to.(在我去主日学校的其余时间里,我爬上教堂外的一棵树,躲在树枝里,等孩子们出来,然后下车加入学校的队伍,走出教堂,迎接我的父母,然后我向他们保证,我已经按照预期上了主日学校)”可知,作者在主日学校的其余时间里,都躲在树上等着下课,可得出作者经常缺课。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I was drawn to the blues and Black American folk music.(我被蓝调和美国黑人民间音乐所吸引)”可推知,蓝调引起了他的兴趣。故选D。 C Many people consider mosquito bites just part of summer living but these insects can carry diseases.

Mosquitoes: The Silent Killers B. The Battle Against Mosquitoes C. A Step Towards a Bite-Free Future D. Proven Ways to Prevent Mosquito Bites 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是来自阿拉巴马州Auburn大学的科学家John Beckmann及其团队发现了一种新型布料,能够阻止蚊子叮咬。这种布料通过计算机数控编织机制作,具有与高质量运动服相似的特性,既透气又能防止蚊子叮咬,为防蚊战斗带来了新的希望。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Beckmann remembered a camping trip from which he returned riddled with kisses from mosquitoes despite wearing a long-sleeved shirt.(Beckmann记得有一次露营旅行,尽管穿着长袖衬衫,但他回来时却被蚊子咬得满身都是。)”可知,Beckmann在露营时被蚊子咬得很厉害。故选A。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“While some companies are making what they state is bite-proof clothing, the clothing includes some harmful chemicals or is made of thick fabrics that are too hot to wear and are easily beaten by mosquitoes. That’s because there are holes in the makeup of their fabrics that mosquitoes and other biting insects can get through.(虽然一些公司正在生产他们声称是防咬的衣服,但这些衣服含有一些有害化学物质,或者是由厚厚的织物制成的,这些织物太热而不能穿,很容易被蚊子叮咬。这是因为它们的织物上有洞,蚊子和其他咬人的昆虫可以通过)”可知,第四段主要讲的是现有防咬服的缺点。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The hope is that finally any type of fabric can be knitted into the lab’s design, so that all kinds of clothing companies from baby clothing producers to dress designers could create bite-proof clothing.(希望最终任何类型的面料都能被编织到实验室的设计中,这样从婴儿服装生产商到服装设计师的各种服装公司都能生产出防咬的衣服)”可知,研究人员的目标是找一种适合所有设计的布料。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“But there is new hope in the battle between man and mosquito. Scientists at Auburn University, in Alabama, may have found the secret to stopping mosquito-borne diseases.(但是人类和蚊子之间的战斗有了新的希望。阿拉巴马州奥本大学的科学家们可能已经找到了阻止蚊子传播疾病的秘密)”和倒数第二段“The team tried by using a computer numerical control knitting (编织) machine that could be programmed with different designs until they found a bite-proof one.(该团队尝试使用计算机数控编织机,该编织机可以根据不同的设计进行编程,直到他们找到了一种防咬的编织机)”可知,本文主要讲的是来自阿拉巴马州Auburn大学的科学家John Beckmann及其团队发现了一种新型布料,能够阻止蚊子叮咬。这种布料通过计算机数控编织机制作,具有与高质量运动服相似的特性,既透气又能防止蚊子叮咬,为防蚊战斗带来了新的希望,因此本文最好的题目是C选项“A Step Towards a Bite-Free Future(迈向无咬未来的一步)”。故选C。 D As AI art generators take the world by storm, some people wonder if their works should count as art at all. The technology is still developing and has some wrinkles to iron out (消除), which means there are indeed flaws to consider alongside the incredible artwork a good artificial intelligence can produce. Art is classed as the product of imagination, skill, experience, and emotion, usually meant to represent something for the public to enjoy. Artists spent time and effort putting their inner worlds onto these works. Machine intelligence also puts a lot of work into sorting through tons of data, linking someone’s prompt (指令) to datasets, and trying to represent it as best as possible. The difference is that the AI is driven by commands instead of an emotional desire to express itself. AI painters can produce over 1,000 original works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced print of the Mona Lisa is worth less than the actual Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Why? Scarcity — there’s only one of the original. Should anyone pay for these things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces up for sale, what should the price be? AI art involves a program mimicking (模仿) the work of existing artists to create a new piece according to the request of a human. But who made the artwork, the machine or its user? And can the original artists sue for (控告) copyright violation? Such questions complicate the merging of artificial intelligence and the art industry, while fueling arguments against recognizing AI-generated art as marketable artistic products. Once we’ve answered those questions, we can tackle the really big one: When an AI-generated painting wins an award, who gets the prize? 12. How is AI art different from human art? A. It is the product of experience. B. It combines different styles of work. C. It is not a mirror of artists’ emotions. D. It doesn’t cost much money to produce. 13. Why does the writer mention Mona Lisa in paragraph 3? A. To present the potential trouble with the value of AI art. B. To introduce a new way of preserving art masterpieces. C. To show the advantages of AI painters over human artists. D. To prove the popularity of classic artworks among viewers. 14. What can we infer from paragraph 4? A. AI art promotes the sale of artistic products. B. AI art makes copyright issues more complicated. C. Artists can create more works with the help of AI. D. There will be fierce competition in the art industry. 15. What is the purpose of the text? A. To persuade. B. To inform. C. To describe. D. To argue. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了AI艺术创作是否是真的艺术的问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The difference is that the AI is driven by commands instead of an emotional desire to express itself.(不同之处在于,AI是由命令驱动的,而不是由表达自己的情感欲望驱动的)”可知,人工智能艺术与人类艺术的不同在于它不是人类情感的反应。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“AI painters can produce over 1,000 original works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced print of the Mona Lisa is worth less than the actual Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Why? Scarcity — there’s only one of the original. Should anyone pay for these things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces up for sale, what should the price be?(只要敲击键盘上的回车键,人工智能画家就能创作出1000多幅原创艺术作品。但是,一幅批量生产的《蒙娜丽莎》版画的价值还不如列奥纳多·达·芬奇的真迹。为什么?稀缺性——只有一个原物。有人应该为这些东西买单吗?如果一位艺术家要出售人工智能杰作,价格应该是多少?)”可推知,作者想通过这个例子来说明AI艺术可能会给艺术作品的价值评定带来问题。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But who made the artwork, the machine or its user? And can the original artists sue for (控告) copyright violation? Such questions complicate the merging of artificial intelligence and the art industry, while fueling arguments against recognizing AI-generated art as marketable artistic products.(但是是谁创造了艺术品,机器还是它的使用者?原创艺术家可以起诉侵犯版权吗?这些问题使人工智能和艺术产业的融合变得复杂,同时也加剧了反对将人工智能生成的艺术视为可销售的艺术产品的争论)”可推知,人工智能艺术使版权问题更加复杂。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“As AI art generators take the world by storm, some people wonder if their works should count as art at all. The technology is still developing and has some wrinkles to iron out (消除), which means there are indeed flaws to consider alongside the incredible artwork a good artificial intelligence can produce.(随着人工智能艺术生成器席卷全球,有些人怀疑他们的作品是否应该算作艺术。这项技术仍在发展中,还有一些问题需要解决,这意味着除了优秀的人工智能可以创造出令人难以置信的艺术品外,还需要考虑一些缺陷)”结合文章主要讨论了AI艺术创作是否是真的艺术的问题。故写作的目的就是为了辩论“AI艺术创作是真的艺术吗?”。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Leave no track” is popular among many campers who are concerned about our environment and favor sustainable (可持续的) travel. Its goal is simple; to minimize human-created impacts on the natural world. ____16____ Reject plastic and paper. First and foremost, one of the easiest ways to reduce the impact of camping on the planet is to go plastic and paper-free. Instead of single-use plastics and paper plates, choose bamboo or other recyclable camping dinnerware and food packages. ____17____ Rent or buy a used tent. Instead of brand-new equipment, consider renting camping equipment instead. Outdoor retail (零售) brands like REI offer a wide variety of camping products to rent, including tents. ____18____ For those keen on purchasing something new, try brands like Patagonia that put sustainability first to reduce waste and support eco-friendly practices. ____19____ In addition to eco-friendly tents, it’s good to ensure that other camping essentials, from hiking shoes and sleeping bags to clothing and blankets, are also gentle on the environment. And remember, whatever is packed in should also be packed out. Only camp in designated (指定的) camping areas. ____20____ However, developed campgrounds, which are specifically designated for camping, are usually available by reservation and don’t require campers to walk wearily into the wilderness to clear space to set up a tent. Designated camping spots usually have other advantages like bathrooms, showers, picnic tables, and more. A. Pack with the planet in mind. B. Sort out what you really need when camping. C. They even carry other outdoor essentials for rent. D. Learn how to sustainably upgrade the summer camping here. E. Campers can also buy reusable paper towels in order to genuinely leave no track. F. Eco-friendly campers can learn how to update their skills with these simple tips. G. Although backpacking off the beaten path sounds fascinating, it may not be eco-friendly. 【答案】16. D 17. E 18. C 19. A 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四种让露营更环保的方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文““Leave no track” is popular among many campers who are concerned about our environment and favor sustainable travel. Its goal is simple; to minimize human-created impacts on the natural world.(“不留痕迹”在许多关心环境和支持可持续旅行的露营者中很受欢迎。它的目标很简单;尽量减少人为对自然界的影响。)”和下文中介绍的四种让露营更环保的方法可知,文章为总分结构,D项:Learn how to sustainably upgrade the summer camping here.(在这里学习如何可持续地升级夏季露营。) 是文章主题句,总领下文具体内容,符合语境。故选D。 【17题详解】 根据本段主旨句“Reject plastic and paper.(拒绝塑料和纸。)”可知,该段主要建议拒绝塑料和纸张。E项中的“reusable paper”和主旨句中的“paper”对应。E项:Campers can also buy reusable paper towels in order to genuinely leave no track.(露营者也可以购买可重复使用的纸巾,这样才不会留下任何痕迹。)符合语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Outdoor retail (零售) brands like REI offer a wide variety of camping products to rent, including tents.(像REI这样的户外零售品牌提供各种各样的露营产品出租,包括帐篷。)”可知,上文提到,REI等户外零售品牌提供包括帐篷在内的各种露营产品的租赁服务。由此可知,C项:They even carry other outdoor essentials for rent.(他们甚至携带其他户外必需品以供出租。)可承接上文,其中的“They”指代上文中的“Outdoor retail brands”。故选C。 【19题详解】 空处为段落主旨句。通读全段尤其是最后一句“And remember, whatever is packed in should also be packed out.(记住,装进去的东西也要打包出去。)”可知,本段建议打包东西露营时把对地球的影响考虑在内。A项:Pack with the planet in mind.(打包时要考虑到地球。)符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据本段的主旨句“Only camp in designated camping areas.(只能在指定的露营区露营。)”可知,本段主要建议只在指定的露营区露营。空后的句子都与“露营区”相关。G项:Although backpacking off the beaten path sounds fascinating, it may not be eco-friendly.(尽管在人迹罕至的地方背包旅行听起来很吸引人,但这可能并不环保。)符合语境。故选G。 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。 I’m from India and I love saris — a traditional costume for Indian women.

That’s according to a study ___37___ (publish) in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Researchers looked at data from more than 72,000 people in the UK, with ___38___ average age of 61. Previous studies have linked time spent sitting with early death and heart disease, and walking is known ___39___ (decrease) these risks. So the research team wanted to find out ___40___ walking could offset (抵消) the health risks of spending a lot of time sitting. The study participants ___41___ (wear) a device on their wrist, which was able to record the ___42___ (step) they took and the amount of time they spent sitting or lying down. Then they ___43___ (track) for around seven years afterward. During this time, 1,633 participants died, and almost 6,200 had heart problems like heart attacks and strokes.

That’s even if people were spending a lot of time sitting. One of the researchers, Matthew Ahmadi said the results show that “all ____45____ (move) matters” and anyone who has to spend a lot of time sitting should increase the number of steps they take. 【答案】36. sitting 37. published 38. an 39. to decrease 40. if##whether 41 wore 42. steps 43. were tracked 44. by 45. movement 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了步行的好处。每天能够走上2200步,就可以降低患心脏病和早死的风险,而每天走9000到10500步可以降低39%的早死风险,降低21%的心脏病风险。 【36题详解】 考查动名词。句意:即使一天中剩下的时间都坐着,每天走2200步以上也能降低患心脏病和早死的风险。分析可知,“spend +时间+(in) doing”,固定短语,意为“花费时间做某事”,介词in可省略,动名词作宾语。故填sitting。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意:这是根据发表在《英国运动医学杂志》上的一项研究得出的结论。分析可知,“___2___ (publish) in…”为之前名词“a study”的后置定语,动词“publish”与其之间为被动关系,用过去分词形式。故填published。 【38题详解】 考查不定冠词。句意:研究人员研究了英国72000多人的数据,这些人的平均年龄为61岁。分析可知,“age”为可数名词,所填空应是不定冠词,其形容词“average/ˈævərɪdʒ/”为元音因素开头的单词,应是用an。“an average age of…”,意为“平均年龄……”。故填an。 【39题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意:先前的研究已经将久坐与早死和心脏病联系起来,而步行可以减少这些风险是众所周知的。分析可知,空前的“known”为过去分词转化的形容词,意为“众所周知的;公认的”,因此,这里应是“be+过去分词+to do”,即,“be known to do”,意为“做某事是众所周知的”。故填to decrease。 【40题详解】 考查宾语从句引导词。句意:因此,研究小组想弄清楚走路是否能抵消长时间坐着带来的健康风险。分析可知,“__5___ walking could offset the health risks of spending a lot of time sitting”为动词短语“find out”的宾语从句,从句结构完整,同时结合语境“wanted to find out(想要弄清楚)”可推知,在句意上应是表达“是否”含义,用if/whether引导从句。故填if/whether。 【41题详解】 考查动词时态。句意:研究参与者在他们的手腕上佩戴了一个设备,这个设备能够记录他们走了多少步以及他们坐着或躺着的时间。分析可知,所填动词作句子的谓语动词,结合后文语境“was able to…”可知,句子用一般过去时,动词应是过去式形式。故填wore。 【42题详解】 考查名词复数。句意:研究参与者在他们的手腕上佩戴了一个设备,这个设备能够记录他们走了多少步以及他们坐着或躺着的时间。分析可知,所填空应是名词,且结合语境“participants”,“they”可知,这里用复数形式。故填steps。 【43题详解】 考查时态和被动。句意:然后他们被追踪了大约7年。分析可知,所填动词作句子的谓语动词,结合前后文语境可知,这里用一般过去时,且主语“they”与动词“track”之间为被动关系,用一般过去时被动结构:were done。故填were tracked。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意:研究发现,每天走9000到10500步可以降低39%的早死风险,降低21%的心脏病风险。结合后文的语境“and reduced the risk of heart disease by 21%(降低了21%患心脏病的风险)”可推知,风险发生的机率应是被降低了,因此,这里也应是介词“by”。故填by。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意:研究人员之一的马修·艾哈迈迪说,研究结果表明,“所有的运动都很重要”,任何长时间坐着的人都应该增加他们的步数。分析可知,这里应是名词作主语,“move”,动词,意为“移动”,其名词形式为“movement(运动)”,为不可数名词。故填movement。 第四部分 写作(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 世界历史文化名城博览会每两年在南京举办一次。该博览会针对自然遗产和文化遗产面临的各种危机,呼吁大家一起保护世界遗产。请你代表主办方,用英文写一封倡议书,内容包括: 1.世界遗产的重要性; 2.保护措施; 3.发出倡议。 注意: 1.写作词数应为80左右; 2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 参考词汇:世界历史文化名城博览会the World Historical and Cultural City Expo Respected all, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Respected All, In response to the call of the World Historical and Cultural City Expo, I appeal to all of you to preserve our world heritage sites.

Not only did we go to the same school, but our evenings and weekends were spent together too. It was like we were inseparable. I never felt that I needed any friends other than them. Unexpectedly, one evening their parents shared the news of them moving to another country-Australia. I was shocked to realize that we would never be together, started recalling all the good times we had spent together, such as playing in the school breaks, the play dates, and all the fun things we did. Was it all going to end? When we had been through so many highs and lows together, shared secrets and supported each other through thick and thin, their moving away felt like my heart was being taken away. The news of their departure left me feeling empty and lost. I was thinking about the biggest change that I was going to face in a few days, it was a difficult pill to swallow, but I knew I must move on. Though it wasn’t easy at first, I was trying my level best to beat the mental pain I was in. After hearing the news, every day felt like a struggle. The school didn’t feel the same; the lunchbreaks had no purpose. Soon there would be no one to compare the test marks with, homework remarks would not excite me like before, and so on. I couldn’t help but feel lost and alone already. 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。 Seeing my condition, my family advised me to make the most of the time that was left before they moved. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Saying goodbye wasn’t easy, but it set my heart at ease to realize that we could still be the closest friends. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Seeing my condition, my family advised me to make the most of the time that was left before they moved. They encouraged me to create more memories that could be cherished forever. Taking their advice to heart, I planned a series of farewell activities - a picnic at our favorite park, a movie marathon night featuring our favorite films, and a heartfelt gift exchange. These moments were bittersweet, filled with laughter and tears, reminding us of the strong bond we shared. It was a time of reflection, appreciating every moment spent together, and acknowledging that true friendship isn’t bound by distance. Saying goodbye wasn’t easy, but it set my heart at ease to realize that we could still be the closest friends. We made promises to stay in touch through video calls, texts, and social media. As they left, we hugged tightly, whispering reassurances of meeting again. The departure was a pivotal moment for me, teaching me resilience and the value of friendships that withstand the test of time and distance. This experience, although painful, prepared me for future farewells and reinforced the idea that some bonds are indeed unbreakable, no matter where life takes us. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者的邻居Taimur和Daniyal是双胞胎,后来作者得知他们将要搬家,情绪十分低落。家人为此给作者提供了建议,作者也规划了和他们想做的事情,让作者明白了朋友的真正意义。 【详解】1. 段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“看到我的情况,我的家人建议我充分利用他们搬家前剩下的时间。”可知,第一段可描写作者开始列清单规划和朋友的活动。 ②由第二段首句内容“说再见并不容易,但当我意识到我们仍然是最亲密的朋友时,我的心就放松了。”可知,第二段可描写作者在这次经历中的感悟和收获。 2. 续写线索:家人建议——规划活动——创造记忆——保持联系——约定暑假探望——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①计划:plan/arrange/schedule ②建议:advise/suggest/recommend ③鼓励:encourage/inspire/motivate 情绪类 ①苦乐参半:bittersweet/sweet-sour/mixed emotions ②痛苦的:painful/hurtful/distressing 【点睛】[高分句型1]They encouraged me to create more memories that could be cherished forever.(that引导的定语从句) [高分句型2]This experience, although painful, prepared me for future farewells and reinforced the idea that some bonds are indeed unbreakable, no matter where life takes us.(that引导同位语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
