To discuss various art techniques and applications B Born in London in 1970, Jay Blades is the furniture restorer and TV presenter best known for The Repair Shop. He reflects on growing up poor, discovering fashion, and why fame will never go to his head. Living in Hackney in the 1980s, one could dress a certain way to command respect. My biggest inspiration was someone that my mum was with at the time, a man called Lloyd. Lloyd held the room in a way that was different from the other men in my area. Before then, I had looked up to naughty people; they got the type of admiration I wanted. They weren’t necessarily doing good things to get that kind of respect: in fact, it was because other people were afraid of them — they were respectful because they didn’t want to get hurt. Lloyd, meanwhile, was neatly dressed. People liked him because of that and I wanted to look like that. I got kicked out of school at 15 for fighting. There was a lot of racism in my school and I would defend people who had been bullied or racially abused. I started going out to the West End when I was 16, which totally opened up my horizons and got me soaked in this new culture. I stopped fighting once I left Hackney when I was 19 or 20. But what’s important to understand is that I was growing up in an area with a lot of desperate people. We all needed a way out, and you did whatever you had to do to survive — we were like crabs in a bucket crawling over each other. When I was 21, I started working in a homeless shelter and it totally changed my life. While working for a charity which encouraged young people to repair furniture, I discovered I had a skill for crafting and fixing objects. Later, I found my career as a furniture restorer and TV presenter. The charity work changed my perspective, too. I realized I had empathy and enjoyed connecting with people who had nothing material but still had everything they needed. There was no point in returning anger with anger, resentment with resentment. 4. What message did Lloyd’s appearance convey to young Jay Blades? A. Decent clothes make good men. B. Proper dressing can earn respect. C. Distinctive style wins admiration. D. Naughty people should be neglected. 5. Which is NOT the reason for people being mean to each other in Hackney then? A. Their young age. B. Limited resources. C. Racial discrimination. D. Terrible living conditions. 6. How did the experience in the homeless shelter affect Jay? A. It taught young people to be tolerant. B. It made him work as a TV presenter. C. It helped him to identify his talent and nature. D. It encouraged young people to be volunteers. 7. Where can we probably find the text? A. A report. B. A column. C. A diary. D. A review C The Jan.17, 1994, Northridge earthquake caused extensive damage to roadways in Los Angeles, particularly on the 10 Freeway east of Culver City. Two freeway bridges at La Cienega and Washington were knocked out, resulting in significant interruptions to the crucial east-west traffic corridor in central Los Angeles. The Santa Monica Freeway was reopened in less than three months, providing a boost to L.A.’s quake recovery. In recent events, a fire on the 10 Freeway, again closing the roadway, has brought comparison to 1994. The extent of the damage and repair timeline remain uncertain. Mayor Karen Bass emphasized the need for urgent action and a similar effort as the 1994 earthquake repairs. Here is a review of that epic 1994 repair effort from the pages of The Times Officials knew right away they needed to get the freeway operating as soon as possible. With an average of 341,000 vehicles a day using the roadway, they said, the extra time it took goods to reach their destinations and workers to get to their jobs cost millions in lost production and wages. It was estimated that the closure cost the economy $1 million per day. The closure of the freeway forced commuters to seek alternative routes, causing congestion (拥塞) on already crowded surface streets between Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles. Detours (绕路) added delays of 20 minutes or more to travel times. Luckily, an accelerated construction effort was launched, involving round-the-clock work. This resulted in earlier-than-expected reopenings. Contractor C.C. Myers Inc. completed the project 74 days ahead of schedule. They received a $200, 000 bonus for each day the work was finished early. However, the cost of the project escalated from the original bid of $14.9 million to nearly $30 million due to the complexity and urgency of the repairs. The repair efforts following the Northridge earthquake were characterized by intense and focused work to restore critical transportation infrastructure (基础设施). These experiences serve as a reference point for the current situation, calling for swift action in repairing the fire-damaged 10 Freeway. 8. Why was the recent fire compared to the 1994 earthquake? A. To indicate the severe damage it had caused. B. To show citizens’ devotion to the repair work. C. To stress the necessity of immediate repair effort. D. To explain the difficulty of repairing the damage. 9. What is paragraphs 4 mainly about? A. The impacts of the freeway closure. B. The economic value of the freeway. C. The operating system of the freeway. D. The cost of the freeway construction. 10. What does the underlined word “escalated” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Transformed. B. Mounted. C. Maintained. D. Restricted. 11. What do we know about the 1994 earthquake repairs? A. The repairs were accomplished in 74 days. B. The repairs were completed under budget. C. The repairs were mainly funded by C.C. Myers Inc.. D. The repairs were complicated and labor-demanding. D If you want to keep your kids from drinking, start by looking at your own consumption. That’s because adolescents whose parents drank regularly or binge drank were four times more likely to drink themselves, according to a newly-published study. Binge drinking is defined as at least four drinks for women and five drinks for men on one occasion. Dr. Marissa Esser, senior study author, stresses that binge drinking not only harms the drinker but increases the likelihood of their teens engaging in alcohol consumption. It isn’t surprising to see a connection between parent and teen drinking. The reason could be tied to multiple things like modeling, alcohol accessibility in the home or a parent’s permissiveness around drinking, said Dr. Scott Hadland, chief of adolescent and young adult medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital. However, Dr. Dick, director of the Rutgers Addiction Research Center, suggests a strong genetic component may also play a role. “About 50% of the differences between how much kids drink — especially as they move through adolescence into young adulthood — is due to differences in their genes,” Dick said. Teenagers’ alcohol consumption is a cause for concern due to potential health and brain development consequences. Dr. Dick highlights that the age at which a person begins drinking is closely linked to their risk of developing addiction. Data cited by Dr. Dick indicates that over 45% of individuals who start drinking at age 13 or younger experience alcohol-related issues, while less than 10% of those who delay drinking until age 21 develop an alcohol use disorder. Reducing parental alcohol consumption can be challenging, even for those without alcohol problems. “Maybe it’s difficult because you have a habit of settling down after a long day with a glass of wine or because it feels strange to be at a party with friends and not have a cocktail in hand,” said journalist Rosamund Dean. However, if you’ re looking to reduce your drinking, there’re effective ways to do it, she said. 12. Which of the following is Dr. Dick’s point of view? A. Alcohol intake variation are genetically influenced B. Early alcohol initiation reduces future alcohol risks. C. Alcohol addiction is a severe problem among teens. D. Delaying drinking helps teens avoid alcohol addiction. 13. How does Dr. Dick illustrate his point of view? A. By offering examples. B. By giving a definition. C. By presenting statistics. D. By quoting experts’ words. 14. What might be talked about in the following-up paragraph? A. Why teens should reduce drinking. B. How parents can cut down on alcohol. C. What kinds of teens may have alcohol issues. D. What influences teens’ alcohol consumption. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Alcohol and Teenagers: A Concern of Parents B. Alcohol Use Disorder: An Issue Among Teenagers C. Parents’ Alcohol Consumption: A Harmless Pastime D. Parental Impact on Teen Drinking: A Reminder for Families 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。 Productivity can be a struggle for many of us. Overflowing email inboxes, housework, social obligations—it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. However, one simple tool that can help us stay on top of everything is the to-do list. ___16___ . Psychologist and author David Cohen highlights three key reasons why lists are beneficial. Firstly, they provide a respite (缓解) from chaos and anxiety that arise from having an endless stream of tasks. ___17___ Secondly, lists offer structure and guidance, giving us a plan to follow. And our brains are more likely to store information when it’s presented in an organized manner. Lastly, lists serve as proof of what we have achieved, which can help boost our sense of accomplishment and motivation. ___18___ Psychologists use this term to describe how we tend to remember unfinished tasks better than completed ones. A study conducted by researchers from Wake Forest University demonstrated the impact of the Zeigarnik effect on a group of participants. During the experiment, a warm-up task was interrupted halfway through, and only some individuals were allowed to make plans to finish it. The researchers discovered that the group who had the opportunity to plan experienced reduced anxiety and performed better in the subsequent task. ___19___ Thus, when we check off an item on our list, our brains can let go of it, allowing us to relax. In conclusion, it’s evident that lists are a valuable tool for maintaining control and organization in our lives. ___20___ By harnessing (利用) the power of lists, we can enhance our productivity and find greater peace of mind amidst life’s demands. A. Write it down, do the tasks and cross them off—simple! B. Another explanation for our attraction to lists lies in the “Zeigarnik Effect”. C. They alleviate stress, provide structure, and offer a sense of accomplishment. D. But the warm-up task remained an unchecked item on their mental to-do list. E. Meanwhile, the others still had the warm-up task stuck in their active memory. F. By writing everything down, we free up our minds and can focus on the task at hand. G. Additionally, the “Zeigarnik Effect” suggests that unfinished tasks can create a sense of mental tension. 第三部分语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节完形填空（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 A、B、C 和 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。 Monday morning, I was running late for work, making my way through the ___21___ subway station. Finally, I managed to ___22___ a packed train and got off at my stop. As I walked to my office building, I noticed a girl, around 8 years old, ___23___ by her little brother, selling pens. She ___24___ me, saying, "Please buy a pen." Burdened by my ___25___ , I initially ignored her and politely ___26___ , saying, "I don't need a pen, thank you." But she ___27___ and urged me to stop," Just take one." At that moment, I felt ___28___ , exclaiming to myself, "God, how did I get myself into this?" Eventually, I ___29___ and purchased a pen from her. The girl's face ___30___ lit up with joy. I couldn't understand why such a simple 2-rupee pen would bring her such happiness. ___31___ , I inquired further. She revealed that she sold pens for family food and desired to buy a lollipop for her brother, which cost 10 rupees. To ___32___ this, she needed to sell 5 extra pens. Her words left me ___33___ , totally shocked by her harsh reality. Deeply ___34___ , I bought three lollipops—one for her, one for her brother, and one as a small ___35___ for myself. At that moment, I realized that it is through opening our hearts to others that we truly experience the beauty life has to offer. 21. A. damp B. comfortable C. crowded D. complicated 22.

It didn’t help that I’d also had another argument with my teenaged daughter that morning. By the time I arrived home, I eagerly anticipated getting my evening walk to clear my mind. It was getting cloudier and I could tell that rain was coming. No problem. I would be home long before the liquid sunshine fell. The intense walk worked off much of my energy. I slowed my pace, but a quick glance down shocked me. The cutest Jack Russell Terrier (杰克罗素梗犬) had appeared out of nowhere and was keeping pace beside me. I knelt to pet her, delighted to discover that her ears were so soft that she reminded me of my childhood dog. She had the same coloring as Lucky—white with a large black spot on her back and side, brown face, and white nose. "Where did you come from little one?" She was not wearing a collar or identification tags. I continued my walk, thinking she would find her way home on her own. The little stray (流浪狗) continued to keep pace, walking next to me as if we were age-old companions. When I picked up my pace, so did she. When I slowed, she slowed. She never left my side. When I looked around, I was not surprised that, other than the dog, I was alone on this dreary (沉闷的) night. The sky had already darkened. I was worried. If I left her out there, she might be hit by a car. I wondered if I should just take her home. The timing was ironic (讽刺的). My sixteen-year-old daughter, Megan, wanted another pet. Our family dog, Daisy, had slowed considerably in her old age, and Megan hoped we would adopt a younger, livelier dog. We had resisted her requests. It didn't make sense to add another pet to our family. My husband, John, and I were looking forward to a little more freedom. Besides, Megan and I had not exactly seen eye-to-eye earlier that day. I didn't want it to seem as if I was rewarding her after yet another argument. Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1—5 ACCAA 6—10 BCBCA 11—15 CBACA 16—20 BCAAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★考试结束前 2023学年第二学期温州环大罗山联盟期末联考 高二年级英语学科 试题 考生须知: 1. 本卷共8页满分150分, 考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前, 在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场号、座位号及准考证号并填涂相应数字。 3. 所有答案必须写在答题纸上, 写在试卷上无效。 选择题部分 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。每段对话后有一小题, 从题中所给的A、B.

He reflects on growing up poor, discovering fashion, and why fame will never go to his head. Living in Hackney in the 1980s, one could dress a certain way to command respect. My biggest inspiration was someone that my mum was with at the time, a man called Lloyd. Lloyd held the room in a way that was different from the other men in my area. Before then, I had looked up to naughty people; they got the type of admiration I wanted. They weren’t necessarily doing good things to get that kind of respect: in fact, it was because other people were afraid of them — they were respectful because they didn’t want to get hurt. Lloyd, meanwhile, was neatly dressed. People liked him because of that and I wanted to look like that. I got kicked out of school at 15 for fighting. There was a lot of racism in my school and I would defend people who had been bullied or racially abused. I started going out to the West End when I was 16, which totally opened up my horizons and got me soaked in this new culture. I stopped fighting once I left Hackney when I was 19 or 20. But what’s important to understand is that I was growing up in an area with a lot of desperate people. We all needed a way out, and you did whatever you had to do to survive — we were like crabs in a bucket crawling over each other. When I was 21, I started working in a homeless shelter and it totally changed my life. While working for a charity which encouraged young people to repair furniture, I discovered I had a skill for crafting and fixing objects. Later, I found my career as a furniture restorer and TV presenter. The charity work changed my perspective, too. I realized I had empathy and enjoyed connecting with people who had nothing material but still had everything they needed. There was no point in returning anger with anger, resentment with resentment. 4. What message did Lloyd’s appearance convey to young Jay Blades? A. Decent clothes make good men. B. Proper dressing can earn respect. C. Distinctive style wins admiration. D. Naughty people should be neglected. 5. Which is NOT the reason for people being mean to each other in Hackney then? A. Their young age. B. Limited resources. C. Racial discrimination. D. Terrible living conditions. 6. How did the experience in the homeless shelter affect Jay? A. It taught young people to be tolerant. B. It made him work as a TV presenter. C. It helped him to identify his talent and nature. D. It encouraged young people to be volunteers. 7. Where can we probably find the text? A. A report. B. A column. C. A diary. D. A review 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要是家具修复师和电视节目主持人杰伊·布雷兹回顾自己的人生经历以及感悟。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Lloyd, meanwhile, was neatly dressed. People liked him because of that and I wanted to look like that.(与此同时，劳埃德穿得整整齐齐。人们因此喜欢他，而我也想成为那样的人)”可知，劳埃德的出现告诉年轻的杰伊·布雷兹得体的穿着可以赢得尊重。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There was a lot of racism in my school and I would defend people who had been bullied or racially abused.(我的学校里有很多种族主义，我会为那些被欺负或受到种族歧视的人辩护)”以及倒数第三段“But what’s important to understand is that I was growing up in an area with a lot of desperate people. We all needed a way out, and you did whatever you had to do to survive — we were like crabs in a bucket crawling over each other.(但重要的是要明白，我成长的地方有很多绝望的人。我们都需要一条出路，而你为了生存做了你必须做的一切——我们就像桶里的螃蟹一样互相爬过)”可知，年级小不是人们互相刻薄的原因。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The charity work changed my perspective, too. I realized I had empathy and enjoyed connecting with people who had nothing material but still had everything they needed.(慈善工作也改变了我的观点。我意识到我有同理心，喜欢和那些一无所有但却拥有他们所需要的一切的人交往)”可知，在收容所的经历帮助他发现了自己的天赋和本性。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Born in London in 1970, Jay Blades is the furniture restorer and TV presenter best known for The Repair Shop. He reflects on growing up poor, discovering fashion, and why fame will never go to his head.(杰伊·布雷兹1970年出生于伦敦，是一名家具修复师和电视节目主持人，他最出名的节目是《修理店》。他回顾了贫穷的成长过程，发现了时尚，以及为什么名声永远不会冲昏他的头脑)”结合文章主要是杰伊·布雷兹回顾自己的人生经历以及感悟。可知，文章选自专栏。故选B。 C The Jan.17, 1994, Northridge earthquake caused extensive damage to roadways in Los Angeles, particularly on the 10 Freeway east of Culver City. Two freeway bridges at La Cienega and Washington were knocked out, resulting in significant interruptions to the crucial east-west traffic corridor in central Los Angeles. The Santa Monica Freeway was reopened in less than three months, providing a boost to L.A.’s quake recovery. In recent events, a fire on the 10 Freeway, again closing the roadway, has brought comparison to 1994. The extent of the damage and repair timeline remain uncertain. Mayor Karen Bass emphasized the need for urgent action and a similar effort as the 1994 earthquake repairs. Here is a review of that epic 1994 repair effort from the pages of The Times. Officials knew right away they needed to get the freeway operating as soon as possible. With an average of 341,000 vehicles a day using the roadway, they said, the extra time it took goods to reach their destinations and workers to get to their jobs cost millions in lost production and wages. It was estimated that the closure cost the economy $1 million per day. The closure of the freeway forced commuters to seek alternative routes, causing congestion (拥塞) on already crowded surface streets between Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles. Detours (绕路) added delays of 20 minutes or more to travel times. Luckily, an accelerated construction effort was launched, involving round-the-clock work. This resulted in earlier-than-expected reopenings. Contractor C.C. Myers Inc. completed the project 74 days ahead of schedule. They received a $200, 000 bonus for each day the work was finished early. However, the cost of the project escalated from the original bid of $14.9 million to nearly $30 million due to the complexity and urgency of the repairs. The repair efforts following the Northridge earthquake were characterized by intense and focused work to restore critical transportation infrastructure (基础设施). These experiences serve as a reference point for the current situation, calling for swift action in repairing the fire-damaged 10 Freeway. 8. Why was the recent fire compared to the 1994 earthquake? A. To indicate the severe damage it had caused. B. To show citizens’ devotion to the repair work. C. To stress the necessity of immediate repair effort. D. To explain the difficulty of repairing the damage. 9. What is paragraphs 4 mainly about? A. The impacts of the freeway closure. B. The economic value of the freeway. C. The operating system of the freeway. D. The cost of the freeway construction. 10. What does the underlined word “escalated” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Transformed. B. Mounted. C. Maintained. D. Restricted. 11. What do we know about the 1994 earthquake repairs? A. The repairs were accomplished in 74 days. B. The repairs were completed under budget. C. The repairs were mainly funded by C.C. Myers Inc.. D. The repairs were complicated and labor-demanding. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要回顾了1994年北岭地震后的修复工作。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“In recent events, a fire on the 10 Freeway, again closing the roadway, has brought comparison to 1994. The extent of the damage and repair timeline remain uncertain. Mayor Karen Bass emphasized the need for urgent action and a similar effort as the 1994 earthquake repairs.(在最近的事件中，10号高速公路发生火灾，再次关闭了道路，这与1994年堪有一比。损坏程度和修复时间表仍不确定。市长Karen Bass强调，需要采取紧急行动，并做出与1994年地震修复类似的努力。)”可知，将最近的火灾与1994年的地震进行比较是为了强调立即修复工作的必要性。故选C项。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“With an average of 341,000 vehicles a day using the roadway, they said, the extra time it took goods to reach their destinations and workers to get to their jobs cost millions in lost production and wages. It was estimated that the closure cost the economy $1 million per day. The closure of the freeway forced commuters to seek alternative routes, causing congestion(拥塞) on already crowded surface streets between Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles. Detours(绕路) added delays of 20 minutes or more to travel times. (他们说，平均每天有34.1万辆汽车通过这条道路，货物到达目的地和工人上班所需的额外时间造成了数百万美元的生产和工资损失。据估计，关闭高速公路每天给经济造成100万美元的损失。高速公路的关闭迫使通勤者寻找其他路线，导致圣莫尼卡和洛杉矶市中心之间已经拥挤的地面街道拥堵。绕路会使旅行时间延迟20分钟以上。)”可知，本段主要讲的是高速公路关闭的影响。故选A项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。划线词句前文“Contractor C.C. Myers Inc. completed the project 74 days ahead of schedule. They received a $200, 000 bonus for each day the work was finished early. (承包商C.C. Myers Inc.提前74天完成了该项目。工作每提早完成一天，他们就能得到20万美元的奖金。)”说明承包商因为提前完成项目拿到更多的奖金，项目的成本增加了，从而推知划线词句“However, the cost of the project escalated from the original bid of $14.9 million to nearly $30 million due to the complexity and urgency of the repairs.(然而，由于维修的复杂性和紧迫性，该项目的成本从最初的1490万美元escalated到近3000万美元。)”其中划线词汇意思是“增加，上升”。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“With an average of 341,000 vehicles a day using the roadway, they said, the extra time it took goods to reach their destinations and workers to get to their jobs cost millions in lost production and wages. (他们说，平均每天有34.1万辆汽车通过这条道路，货物到达目的地和工人上班所需的额外时间造成了数百万美元的生产和工资损失。)”及第五段中“However, the cost of the project escalated from the original bid of $14.9 million to nearly $30 million due to the complexity and urgency of the repairs. (然而，由于修复的复杂性和紧迫性，该项目的成本从最初的1490万美元escalated到近3000万美元。)”可以推知，1994年地震的修复工作很复杂，而且需要大量劳动力。故选D项。 D If you want to keep your kids from drinking, start by looking at your own consumption. That’s because adolescents whose parents drank regularly or binge drank were four times more likely to drink themselves, according to a newly-published study. Binge drinking is defined as at least four drinks for women and five drinks for men on one occasion. Dr. Marissa Esser, senior study author, stresses that binge drinking not only harms the drinker but increases the likelihood of their teens engaging in alcohol consumption. It isn’t surprising to see a connection between parent and teen drinking. The reason could be tied to multiple things like modeling, alcohol accessibility in the home or a parent’s permissiveness around drinking, said Dr. Scott Hadland, chief of adolescent and young adult medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital. However, Dr. Dick, director of the Rutgers Addiction Research Center, suggests a strong genetic component may also play a role. “About 50% of the differences between how much kids drink — especially as they move through adolescence into young adulthood — is due to differences in their genes,” Dick said. Teenagers’ alcohol consumption is a cause for concern due to potential health and brain development consequences. Dr. Dick highlights that the age at which a person begins drinking is closely linked to their risk of developing addiction. Data cited by Dr. Dick indicates that over 45% of individuals who start drinking at age 13 or younger experience alcohol-related issues, while less than 10% of those who delay drinking until age 21 develop an alcohol use disorder. Reducing parental alcohol consumption can be challenging, even for those without alcohol problems. “Maybe it’s difficult because you have a habit of settling down after a long day with a glass of wine or because it feels strange to be at a party with friends and not have a cocktail in hand,” said journalist Rosamund Dean. However, if you’ re looking to reduce your drinking, there’re effective ways to do it, she said. 12. Which of the following is Dr. Dick’s point of view? A Alcohol intake variation are genetically influenced B. Early alcohol initiation reduces future alcohol risks. C. Alcohol addiction is a severe problem among teens. D. Delaying drinking helps teens avoid alcohol addiction. 13. How does Dr. Dick illustrate his point of view? A. By offering examples. B. By giving a definition. C. By presenting statistics. D. By quoting experts’ words. 14. What might be talked about in the following-up paragraph? A. Why teens should reduce drinking. B. How parents can cut down on alcohol. C. What kinds of teens may have alcohol issues. D. What influences teens’ alcohol consumption. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Alcohol and Teenagers: A Concern of Parents B. Alcohol Use Disorder: An Issue Among Teenagers C. Parents’ Alcohol Consumption: A Harmless Pastime D. Parental Impact on Teen Drinking: A Reminder for Families 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了父母会影响青少年的饮酒量，引用了相关的研究加以证明。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“However, Dr. Dick, director of the Rutgers Addiction Research Center, suggests a strong genetic component may also play a role. “About 50% of the differences between how much kids drink — especially as they move through adolescence into young adulthood — is due to differences in their genes,” Dick said.(然而，罗格斯大学成瘾研究中心主任迪克博士认为，强烈的遗传成分也可能起作用。迪克说:“孩子们饮酒量的差异——尤其是当他们从青春期进入青年期时——大约有50%是由于他们的基因差异造成的。”)”可知，酒精摄入量的变化受基因影响。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Data cited by Dr. Dick indicates that over 45% of individuals who start drinking at age 13 or younger experience alcohol-related issues, while less than 10% of those who delay drinking until age 21 develop an alcohol use disorder.(迪克博士引用的数据表明，在13岁或更小的年龄开始饮酒的人中，超过45%的人会出现与酒精有关的问题，而在21岁才开始饮酒的人中，只有不到10%的人会出现酒精使用障碍)”可知，迪克博士通过提供统计数据阐述他的观点。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Reducing parental alcohol consumption can be challenging, even for those without alcohol problems. “Maybe it’s difficult because you have a habit of settling down after a long day with a glass of wine or because it feels strange to be at a party with friends and not have a cocktail in hand,” said journalist Rosamund Dean. However, if you’ re looking to reduce your drinking, there’re effective ways to do it, she said.(即使对那些没有酗酒问题的人来说，减少父母的饮酒量也是一项挑战。记者罗莎蒙德·迪安说：“也许这很难，因为你习惯在漫长的一天后喝一杯葡萄酒安顿下来，或者是因为在和朋友聚会时手里没有鸡尾酒会觉得很奇怪。”然而，如果你想减少饮酒量，有一些有效的方法可以做到，她说。)”可知，在接下来的段落中可能会讨论父母如何减少饮酒。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“If you want to keep your kids from drinking, start by looking at your own consumption. That’s because adolescents whose parents drank regularly or binge drank were four times more likely to drink themselves, according to a newly-published study.(如果你想阻止孩子饮酒，那就先审视一下自己的饮酒习惯吧。一项最新发表的研究表明，父母经常饮酒或酗酒的青少年，自己也喝酒的可能性是（其他青少年的）四倍。)”结合文章主要说明了父母会影响青少年的饮酒量，引用了相关的研究加以证明。可知，D选项“父母对青少年饮酒的影响：对家庭的提醒”最符合文章标题。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。 Productivity can be a struggle for many of us. Overflowing email inboxes, housework, social obligations—it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. However, one simple tool that can help us stay on top of everything is the to-do list. ___16___ . Psychologist and author David Cohen highlights three key reasons why lists are beneficial. Firstly, they provide a respite (缓解) from chaos and anxiety that arise from having an endless stream of tasks. ___17___ Secondly, lists offer structure and guidance, giving us a plan to follow. And our brains are more likely to store information when it’s presented in an organized manner. Lastly, lists serve as proof of what we have achieved, which can help boost our sense of accomplishment and motivation. ___18___ Psychologists use this term to describe how we tend to remember unfinished tasks better than completed ones. A study conducted by researchers from Wake Forest University demonstrated the impact of the Zeigarnik effect on a group of participants. During the experiment, a warm-up task was interrupted halfway through, and only some individuals were allowed to make plans to finish it. The researchers discovered that the group who had the opportunity to plan experienced reduced anxiety and performed better in the subsequent task. ___19___ Thus, when we check off an item on our list, our brains can let go of it, allowing us to relax. In conclusion, it’s evident that lists are a valuable tool for maintaining control and organization in our lives. ___20___ By harnessing (利用) the power of lists, we can enhance our productivity and find greater peace of mind amidst life’s demands. A. Write it down, do the tasks and cross them off—simple! B. Another explanation for our attraction to lists lies in the “Zeigarnik Effect”. C. They alleviate stress, provide structure, and offer a sense of accomplishment. D. But the warm-up task remained an unchecked item on their mental to-do list. E. Meanwhile, the others still had the warm-up task stuck in their active memory. F. By writing everything down we free up our minds and can focus on the task at hand. G. Additionally, the “Zeigarnik Effect” suggests that unfinished tasks can create a sense of mental tension. 【答案】16. A 17. F 18. B 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了待办事项清单的好处和原因。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Productivity can be a struggle for many of us. Overflowing email inboxes, housework, social obligations—it can be easy to feel overwhelmed.

(心理学家用这个术语来描述我们如何更容易记住未完成的任务而不是完成的任务。)”可知，本句主要提出后文提到的术语，B选项中Zeigarnik Effect对应后文this term。故B选项“对我们喜欢清单的另一个解释是“蔡加尼克效应”。”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据上文“During the experiment, a warm-up task was interrupted halfway through, and only some individuals were allowed to make plans to finish it. The researchers discovered that the group who had the opportunity to plan experienced reduced anxiety and performed better in the subsequent task. (在实验中，一项热身任务中途被打断，只有一些人被允许制定完成计划。研究人员发现，有机会做计划的那组人焦虑感降低，在随后的任务中表现更好。)”可知，上文提到只有一些人被允许制定完成计划，推测本句是在说明其他人的表现。故E选项“与此同时，其他人仍然把热身任务留在他们的主动记忆中”符合语境，故选E。 【20题详解】 根据上文“In conclusion, it’s evident that lists are a valuable tool for maintaining control and organization in our lives. (总之，很明显，清单是我们生活中保持控制和组织的一个有价值的工具。)”可知，本句承接上文，说明清单的具体好处。C选项中They指代上文lists。故C选项“它们减轻压力，提供结构，并提供成就感。”符合语境，故选C。 第三部分语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节完形填空（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 A、B、C 和 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。 Monday morning, I was running late for work, making my way through the ___21___ subway station.

It didn’t help that I’d also had another argument with my teenaged daughter that morning. By the time I arrived home, I eagerly anticipated getting my evening walk to clear my mind. It was getting cloudier and I could tell that rain was coming. No problem. I would be home long before the liquid sunshine fell. The intense walk worked off much of my energy. I slowed my pace, but a quick glance down shocked me. The cutest Jack Russell Terrier (杰克罗素梗犬) had appeared out of nowhere and was keeping pace beside me. I knelt to pet her, delighted to discover that her ears were so soft that she reminded me of my childhood dog. She had the same coloring as Lucky—white with a large black spot on her back and side, brown face, and white nose. "Where did you come from, little one?" She was not wearing a collar or identification tags. I continued my walk, thinking she would find her way home on her own. The little stray (流浪狗) continued to keep pace, walking next to me as if we were age-old companions. When I picked up my pace, so did she. When I slowed, she slowed. She never left my side. When I looked around, I was not surprised that, other than the dog, I was alone on this dreary (沉闷的) night. The sky had already darkened. I was worried. If I left her out there, she might be hit by a car. I wondered if I should just take her home. The timing was ironic (讽刺的). My sixteen-year-old daughter, Megan, wanted another pet. Our family dog, Daisy, had slowed considerably in her old age, and Megan hoped we would adopt a younger, livelier dog. We had resisted her requests. It didn't make sense to add another pet to our family. My husband, John, and I were looking forward to a little more freedom. Besides, Megan and I had not exactly seen eye-to-eye earlier that day. I didn't want it to seem as if I was rewarding her after yet another argument. Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain. I broke into a jog, with the little stray never leaving my side. Together, we jogged the final half-mile home in the rain. When I opened the door, the Terrier rushed in and ran straight to Megan. Megan and her dad rapidly fired questions regarding the little dog. Who? What? Where? None of my answers mattered once this bundle of energy jumped into Megan’s lap, sniffing her with her white nose. They seemed to share an instant connection, and Megan’s eyes lit up with delight. Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home. Megan and I found ourselves bonding over caring for the new addition to our family. We took turns walking her and teaching her tricks. The Terrier became a constant source of comfort and companionship for both Megan and me. We would often find ourselves sitting together on the couch, stroking her soft fur and sharing stories about our day. This cute Terrier not only found a home with us but also helped us discover a newfound understanding and appreciation for each other through these shared experience. 【解析】 【导语】本文以宠物狗为线索展开，讲述了作者近期工作压力大，又和十几岁的女儿吵了架，心情郁闷。本想散步排遣不愉快心情，结果一只可爱的流浪狗跟着作者散步，并且不离不弃。虽然作者的女儿正想换一只宠物狗，但是作者并没有同意。由于下雨，作者只好把小狗带回家。结果小狗的到来给作者家里带来了积极的变化。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“由于雨下得很大，我决定不让这只可爱的动物在外面淋雨。”可知，第一段可描写作者把狗带回家以及狗和家人的沟通。 ②由第二段首句内容“随着时间的流逝，狗的出现给我们家带来了积极的变化。”可知，第二段可描写作者女儿和作者在照顾狗的过程中关系渐渐和谐。 2.续写线索：带狗回家——狗和家人交流——积极变化——共同照顾狗——发现关系和谐——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.提出问题：fire questions/raise questions ②. 发现：discover/find 情绪类 ①.高兴地：with delight/with pleasure/happily ②.宽慰：comfort/relief 【点睛】 [高分句型1].
