B As a mushroom scientist, you are vastly outnumbered, with estimates suggesting that there are between 2.2 million and 3.8 million species of fungi (真菌), the majority of which are yet to be identified. However, professionals in the field are not alone in their efforts to uncover new species. An enthusiastic community of amateurs has emerged, bridging the gap between professionals and non-professionals. These amateurs have even made significant discoveries. One such amateur is Taylor Lockwood, a 74-year-old mushroom enthusiast and professional photographer. In 1984, while living on the Mendocino coast of California, Taylor Lockwood developed a fascination with mushrooms. “Outside my cottage were these amazing mushrooms,” he says. “And it was as if these mushrooms looked at me and said, ‘Taylor, go out and tell the world how pretty we are.’” Lockwood answered their call and purchased camera equipment to capture their true nature. His passion for photographing mushrooms was so intense that he would even dig holes next to the mushrooms to get the perfect angle for his shots. In the Monongahela National Forest, Taylor Lockwood discovered an unusual mushroom that looked like tiny fingers wearing off-white gloves. Upon deeper investigation, fungi researcher Amy Rossman confirmed that it was a “hazel glove” mushroom, which is a rare find. “Mushrooms are not like plants,” Rossman says. “They don’t come up at the same time every year, and so sometimes it can be decades between when a fungus fruits.” Rossman says that’s why it’s so valuable to have people like Taylor Lockwood searching through the forest with a trained eye. A few years ago, Taylor Lockwood realized that still photos weren’t sufficient, so he chose to create time-lapse (延时拍摄的) videos of mushrooms. “When I do time-lapse, I see so much life happening around the mushrooms—insects, worms and other small creatures interacting with them,” he says. Lockwood’s love for art is evident in his approach to filming mushrooms over time. Although he appreciates the scientific aspect of his work, he identifies himself as an artist at heart. 24. What can we learn about mushroom amateurs from paragraph 1? A. They keep close track of the growth of fungi. B. They help identify new species of mushroom. C. They replace professional scientists in the field. D. They classify the majority of mushroom species. 25. What inspired Lockwood to photograph mushrooms? A His desire for knowledge. B. His curiosity about nature. C. The beauty of nearby mushrooms. D. The appeal of outdoor photography. 26. Which of the following best describes Lockwood according to paragraph 3? A. Skilled and observant. B. Focused and flexible. C. Talented and optimistic. D. Organized and responsible. 27. Why did Lockwood decide to make time-lapse videos of mushrooms? A. To improve his photography techniques. B. To capture dynamic life in an artistic way. C. To collect biological data for deeper research. D. To use a new approach to scientific studies. C You may think of me as delicious and nutritious, the sight of me packed into cans of school lunches. But here’s what adults hide from the kids: There’s very little that’s gentle about me. One of the ocean’s fastest fish, I can grow to be 1,500 pounds, and I fetch millions at Japanese fish markets. Forget the “chicken of the sea”. I am the Schwarzenegger of the sea, the strongest and most powerful. I’m honored in cave paintings dating back to 3000 BC. Coins from 2000 BC feature me on one side. Five years ago, modern Navy scientists confirmed just how perfectly evolved I am for efficient speed: They modeled their new underwater spy drone (无人机), The GhostSwimmer, on me. How is it that the price of my raw meat ranges from a dollar to a hundred? In fact, the fish you generally call tuna is actually seven species of fish, Bluefin, as the largest, is at the top of the food chain. Along with Bigeye and Yellowfin, it is one of the three most favored tunas by customers. Skipjack, commercially my most important variety, is easier to catch, thus accounting for $18 billion of the $42 billion worth of me that gets sold each year. I can be delicious canned, provided you don’t be mean with the mayo (蛋黄酱) or, for a more heart healthy tuna salad, the olive oil. Considering mercury (汞) levels in canned “light” Skipjack, it’s also recommended that women of childbearing age dine on me in that form no more than once a week. If you want to do right by the ocean, however, choose troll-caught or pole-and-line-caught tuna. These “one fish, one hook” methods hunt me without nearly as much unwanted fish. Longlines or huge nets, often wipe out entire schools. Don’t forget that getting rid of a top-level fish like me has severe consequences all the way down the food chain. 28. What does the underlined word “fetch” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Be eaten up. B. Go and get. C. Be sold for. D. Run out of. 29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Tuna’s important role in humans’ life. B. Tuna’s applications in modern science. C. How tuna evolve over the course of time. D. Why tuna are the ocean’s fastest fish. 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. Skipjack takes up about 42% of the tuna market per year. B. The bigger a tuna fish is, the higher its quality and price. C. Women should have canned tuna less than once a week. D. The big price gap results from different ways to hunt tuna. 31. According to the last paragraph, what do “I” want to say to humans? A. Give me more mayo, I will be healthier. B. Ouch! The hook hurts me. Net me, please. C. Don’t tell kids I’m not what they think of me. D. Never wipe me out, or you are inviting trouble. D What have humans done to deserve dogs? They greet us when we come home, comfort us when we’re sad and generally act as loyal companions. Now, researchers are investigating whether tumors (肿瘤) in dogs may help treat tumors in humans. In early April, the Jackson Laboratory began collecting samples of canine (犬的) tumors. Cells from these tumors inserted into mice could help test new drugs and improve our understanding about how cancer develops and progresses. Although cancer results from many factors, genes play a critical role. That means the genetic makeup of a tumor can help determine which drugs work against it. So having a broad and diverse pool of genetic makeups increases the chances of finding the right way to attack each disease. This thinking is particularly relevant for rare cancers and rare mutations (突变). Drawing from a larger pool means more genetic mutations to research. And using tumors from dogs is a nearly ideal way to widen that pool. They’re exposed to many of the same environmental factors that might cause cancer in their owners, notes Dr. Christopher Fulkerson. Some bone and brain cancers are far more common in dogs than they are in people, making samples easier to find. In many cases, the cells in a dog’s cancer look and act the same as they would in a human. They can even carry the same genetic mutations. However, not all canine cancers will be particularly helpful for human-focused research. For some types, the similarities between human and dog diseases will be significant. But when they aren’t, warns Dr. Jaime Modiano, the differences could have serious consequences for drug development. But even when the research doesn’t advance knowledge of human cancers, it could still help improve the treatment of dogs diagnosed (确诊) with cancer. That's the least we can do for our faithful friends. 32. What are the purposes of collecting canine tumors? A. To help design new drugs. B To better understand cancer. C. To prove dogs are our faithful friends. D. To show cancer results from many factors. 33. Why is using tumors from dogs an ideal way? A. Many dogs have bone and brain cancers. B. Dogs and their owners are good companions. C. Dogs and their owners have similar living conditions and cancer types. D. Using tumors from dogs can help determine which drugs work better. 34 What does the author indicate by mentioning Dr. Jaime Modiano? A. It’s useless to study cancers from dogs. B. Studies on cancers from dogs will bring harmful results. C. Cancers from dogs may not be helpful for fighting human cancers. D. Some similarities between human and dog diseases are significant. 35. What’s the author’s attitude to the research? A. Unconcerned. B. Doubtful. C. Pessimistic. D. Optimistic. 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。 No matter how friendly your tone is or how honey-sweet you are in a conversation, when you start your sentences with one of these words (or both), the message to your recipient is “You are wrong.” ___36___ They are “No” and “But”. These words don’t say “Let’s discuss this” or “I’d love to hear what you think about this” to people. They say. “You are wrong and I am right.” If your conversation companion is also eager to win at any cost, you will have a potential battle on your hands. The result? ___37___ Are you interested in a little test to see how competitive your co-workers are? Try this. For one week, keep a scorecard of how many times each person uses “No” or “But” to start a sentence. ___38___ And, if you drill a little deeper, you’ll see patterns emerge. For instance, some people use these words to gain power. You’ll see how much people dislike it, consciously or not, and how it kills rather than opens up discussions. ___39___ Practically without even thinking, I keep count of their use of these two little words. It’s such an important indicator! If the numbers pile up in an initial meeting with a client. I’ll interrupt him or her and say. “We’ve been talking for almost an hour now, and do you realize that you have responded 17 times with either ‘No’ or ‘But’?” Stop trying to defend your position and start monitoring how many times you begin remarks with “No” or “But”. ___40___ For example, “That’s true, but…” (Meaning: You don’t really think it’s true at all.) Another expression is “Yes, but...” (Meaning: Prepare to be contradicted.) A. Why do people like saying this? B. I use this technique with my clients. C. What are these conversation stopping words? D. Nothing more can happen that will be productive. E. It’s human nature to like being accepted and recognized. F. You will be shocked at how frequently these words are used. G. Pay close attention to when you use these words in sentences. 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 Jeff Jens can clearly recall the first time when he realized solar power was the real deal.

We had been friends since we were six years old. I took Isla as a smart, funny friend, but not all students at our school did, especially the girl students. Girls in our school wore fashionable branded clothes, but Isla sewed hers and her curly hair and thick glasses made her look like a fish, which made her stand out like a sore thumb(招眼). For me, sometimes I felt embarrassed to be around Isla, particularly when students said rude words about her hair, clothes, glasses—even about the fact that she got really good grades. Isla always seemed to be able to ignore what other students thought, but I couldn’t. I began to distance myself from her. Our school had a tradition—there was a talent show every spring. Students would sing, dance, play musical instruments, and do whatever they could to show their talents. Being our graduation season in this senior school, this year’s talent show would be obviously different. It would be a huge night. Ava, who was an outgoing girl, invited me to be on her dance team. “We win the talent show every year, and we expect a satisfactory graduation this year,” Ava said to me excitedly. “We need a new dancer. But only you, not her!” Ava pointed to someone behind me. I didn’t need to turn around to see who she meant. “Oh, I see,” I said quietly. Ava had hardly headed out when someone tapped on my shoulder. It was Isla. When I saw her confused face, it was like waking up from a dream. Isla asked me eagerly, “Emily, are you going to take part in the talent show?” I hesitated without response. “That’s great, Emily!” Isla told me without waiting for my answer that she was also going to participate this year. I couldn’t believe what I had heard. I started to worry about her when I imagined that she was in front of a huge crowd, and that everybody would laugh at her. Time passed quickly, and I had barely seen Isla since then. For me, I had to practice hard every day with Ava and the team to keep up since the other dancers had already known the steps. 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。 Ultimately, it was my turn to perform, and I felt extremely nervous. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I stepped off the stage and expressed my thanks to Isla, who was ready to sing. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 衡阳县四中2024届高考考前冲刺卷（四） 英语 注意事项： 1．答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试题卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3．非选择题的作答：用签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4．考试结束后，请将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 第Ⅰ卷（选择题） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节 （共 5 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 7.5 分） 听下面 5 段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有 10 秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where does the conversation probably take place?

M: Hmm, I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Park Administration and Landscape Architecture in 1969. But the birth of my daughter in 1985 was the turning point of my entrance into organic gardening. W: Then what efforts have you made so far? M: Well, in addition to teaching relevant knowledge to landowners, I also do commercial projects. You can hear me Sundays from 8 am to 11 am on the radio. And my column in the Dallas Morning News appears Thursdays. W: As I know, you've also written many books on organic gardening, such as Dear Dirt Doctor, Herbs for Texas, and Plants for Texas. M: Yes. And the last one is a little special because it is arranged in alphabetical order rather than chapters. People can find detailed information on landscaping plants, fruits, vegetables, cover crops and herbs there. 听下面一段较长对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 14. What will the weather be like tomorrow afternoon?

A. Salty food. B. Sugary food. C. Fatty food. 19. What should one do to follow the Atkins diet? A. Limit carbs （碳水化合物）. B. Avoid meat. C. Control food intake. 20. Who should avoid the Atkins diet? A. Overweight teenagers. B. Sick people. C. People with poor appetite. 【答案】18. C 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【原文】 The old belief that foods rich in fat are bad for your health has come into question. The Atkins diet, a popular eating plan developed by Robert Atkins, says the real reason for making people fat is carbs, the substances that provide your body with heat and energy. The Atkins diet has several stages of weight loss and maintenance, starting with a low-carb eating plan. It doesn't require you to control the amount of food you have each meal. It holds that eating too many carbs, especially sugar, leads to blood sugar imbalances, weight gain and other problems. The main dietary focus of the Atkins diet is keeping the balance between carbs, protein and fats for weight loss and health. So you don't need to avoid fatty cuts of meat rather controlling carbs is what's important. Significantly, cutting carbs sharply in the early stage can result in some side effects like headaches and weakness. You'd better consult your doctor before starting the diet. People who suffer from ill health should not follow the diet, and this diet is also not suitable for women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. 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 When winter comes, Yellowstone National Park is transformed into a snowy wonderland.

Enjoy their presentation and the stories behind them.(与野生动物摄影师丹和辛迪·哈特曼见面，听听他们多年来探索黄石并拍摄其生物的故事。欣赏他们的演讲和背后的故事)”可知，丹和辛迪·哈特曼在黄石公园的拉马尔山谷给野生动物拍照。故选C项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Day 3下的“After breakfast, board heated snow coaches for a scenic journey to Old Faithful. Along the way, stop at the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone to see its famous waterfalls creating sculptures in ice within the colorful canyon walls.(早餐后，乘坐加热的雪车前往Old Faithful。途中，我们将在黄石大峡谷停留，观赏其著名的瀑布，这些瀑布在色彩斑斓的峡谷壁上形成了冰雕)”可知，在the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone可以欣赏到天然冰雕。故选B项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Day 4下的“Tonight, gather for a talk on environmental protection delivered by your expert followed by a private dinner at the Lodge.(今晚，您将参加由您的专家主持的关于环境保护的讲座，然后在旅馆享用私人晚餐)”可知，在Day 4可以参加讲座。故选D项。 B As a mushroom scientist, you are vastly outnumbered, with estimates suggesting that there are between 2.2 million and 3.8 million species of fungi (真菌), the majority of which are yet to be identified. However, professionals in the field are not alone in their efforts to uncover new species. An enthusiastic community of amateurs has emerged, bridging the gap between professionals and non-professionals. These amateurs have even made significant discoveries. One such amateur is Taylor Lockwood, a 74-year-old mushroom enthusiast and professional photographer. In 1984, while living on the Mendocino coast of California, Taylor Lockwood developed a fascination with mushrooms. “Outside my cottage were these amazing mushrooms,” he says. “And it was as if these mushrooms looked at me and said, ‘Taylor, go out and tell the world how pretty we are.’” Lockwood answered their call and purchased camera equipment to capture their true nature. His passion for photographing mushrooms was so intense that he would even dig holes next to the mushrooms to get the perfect angle for his shots. In the Monongahela National Forest, Taylor Lockwood discovered an unusual mushroom that looked like tiny fingers wearing off-white gloves. Upon deeper investigation, fungi researcher Amy Rossman confirmed that it was a “hazel glove” mushroom, which is a rare find. “Mushrooms are not like plants,” Rossman says. “They don’t come up at the same time every year, and so sometimes it can be decades between when a fungus fruits.” Rossman says that’s why it’s so valuable to have people like Taylor Lockwood searching through the forest with a trained eye. A few years ago, Taylor Lockwood realized that still photos weren’t sufficient, so he chose to create time-lapse (延时拍摄的) videos of mushrooms. “When I do time-lapse, I see so much life happening around the mushrooms—insects, worms and other small creatures interacting with them,” he says. Lockwood’s love for art is evident in his approach to filming mushrooms over time. Although he appreciates the scientific aspect of his work, he identifies himself as an artist at heart. 24. What can we learn about mushroom amateurs from paragraph 1? A. They keep close track of the growth of fungi. B. They help identify new species of mushroom. C. They replace professional scientists in the field. D They classify the majority of mushroom species. 25. What inspired Lockwood to photograph mushrooms? A. His desire for knowledge. B. His curiosity about nature. C. The beauty of nearby mushrooms. D. The appeal of outdoor photography. 26. Which of the following best describes Lockwood according to paragraph 3? A. Skilled and observant. B. Focused and flexible. C. Talented and optimistic. D. Organized and responsible. 27. Why did Lockwood decide to make time-lapse videos of mushrooms? A. To improve his photography techniques. B. To capture dynamic life in an artistic way. C. To collect biological data for deeper research. D. To use a new approach to scientific studies. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了Taylor Lockwood，一名蘑菇爱好者和摄影师，在真菌学领域做出了重大贡献。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“However, professionals in the field are not alone in their efforts to uncover new species. An enthusiastic community of amateurs has emerged, bridging the gap between professionals and non-professionals. These amateurs have even made significant discoveries.(然而，在发现新物种的努力中，该领域的专业人士并不孤单。一个热情的业余爱好者社区已经出现，弥合了专业人士和非专业人士之间的差距。这些业余爱好者甚至有了重大发现。)”可知，蘑菇爱好者们在探索新真菌品种方面有重大发现，故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“In 1984, while living on the Mendocino coast of California, Taylor Lockwood developed a fascination with mushrooms. “Outside my cottage were these amazing mushrooms,” he says. “And it was as if these mushrooms looked at me and said, ‘Taylor, go out and tell the world how pretty we are.’” (1984年，泰勒·洛克伍德(Taylor Lockwood)住在加利福尼亚州的门多西诺海岸，对蘑菇产生了浓厚的兴趣。“我的小屋外面有这些神奇的蘑菇，”他说。“就好像这些蘑菇看着我说，‘泰勒，出去告诉世界我们有多漂亮。’”)”可知，小屋附近蘑菇的美让Taylor决定用相机去拍摄它们，故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In the Monongahela National Forest, Taylor Lockwood discovered an unusual mushroom that looked like tiny fingers wearing off-white gloves. (在莫农加希拉国家森林，泰勒·洛克伍德(Taylor Lockwood)发现了一种不寻常的蘑菇，看起来像戴着灰白色手套的小手指。)”可知，Taylor在森林里发现了稀有的蘑菇品种，再结合第三段中“They don’t come up at the same time every year, and so sometimes it can be decades between when a fungus fruits.” Rossman says that’s why it’s so valuable to have people like Taylor Lockwood searching through the forest with a trained eye. (“它们不会每年在同一时间出现，所以有时真菌结出果实之间可能需要几十年的时间。”罗斯曼说，这就是为什么像泰勒·洛克伍德这样的人用训练有素的眼睛在森林中搜索如此有价值的原因。)”可推知，Taylor是一个有经验且善于观察的人，故选A项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中““When I do time-lapse, I see so much life happening around the mushrooms—insects, worms and other small creatures interacting with them,” he says. Lockwood’s love for art is evident in his approach to filming mushrooms over time. Although he appreciates the scientific aspect of his work, he identifies himself as an artist at heart. (“当我进行延时摄影时，我看到蘑菇周围发生了很多生命——昆虫、蠕虫和其他小生物与它们互动，”他说。洛克伍德对艺术的热爱体现在他随着时间的推移拍摄蘑菇的方法上。尽管他欣赏自己作品的科学方面，但他将自己视为内心的艺术家。)”可推知，Taylor决定拍摄蘑菇的延时视频是为了以艺术的方式捕捉动态生活，故选B项。 C You may think of me as delicious and nutritious, the sight of me packed into cans of school lunches. But here’s what adults hide from the kids: There’s very little that’s gentle about me. One of the ocean’s fastest fish, I can grow to be 1,500 pounds, and I fetch millions at Japanese fish markets. Forget the “chicken of the sea”. I am the Schwarzenegger of the sea, the strongest and most powerful. I’m honored in cave paintings dating back to 3000 BC. Coins from 2000 BC feature me on one side. Five years ago, modern Navy scientists confirmed just how perfectly evolved I am for efficient speed: They modeled their new underwater spy drone (无人机), The GhostSwimmer, on me. How is it that the price of my raw meat ranges from a dollar to a hundred? In fact, the fish you generally call tuna is actually seven species of fish, Bluefin, as the largest, is at the top of the food chain. Along with Bigeye and Yellowfin, it is one of the three most favored tunas by customers. Skipjack, commercially my most important variety, is easier to catch, thus accounting for $18 billion of the $42 billion worth of me that gets sold each year. I can be delicious canned, provided you don’t be mean with the mayo (蛋黄酱) or, for a more heart healthy tuna salad, the olive oil. Considering mercury (汞) levels in canned “light” Skipjack, it’s also recommended that women of childbearing age dine on me in that form no more than once a week. If you want to do right by the ocean however, choose troll-caught or pole-and-line-caught tuna. These “one fish, one hook” methods hunt me without nearly as much unwanted fish. Longlines or huge nets, often wipe out entire schools. Don’t forget that getting rid of a top-level fish like me has severe consequences all the way down the food chain. 28. What does the underlined word “fetch” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Be eaten up. B. Go and get. C. Be sold for. D. Run out of. 29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Tuna’s important role in humans’ life. B. Tuna’s applications in modern science. C. How tuna evolve over the course of time. D. Why tuna are the ocean’s fastest fish. 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. Skipjack takes up about 42% of the tuna market per year. B. The bigger a tuna fish is, the higher its quality and price. C. Women should have canned tuna less than once a week. D. The big price gap results from different ways to hunt tuna. 31. According to the last paragraph, what do “I” want to say to humans? A. Give me more mayo, I will be healthier. B. Ouch! The hook hurts me. Net me, please. C. Don’t tell kids I’m not what they think of me. D. Never wipe me out, or you are inviting trouble. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了金枪鱼在人生生活中的重要作用以及对生态的影响。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“One of the ocean’s fastest fish, I can grow to be 1,500 pounds(我是海里跑得最快的鱼之一，能长到1500磅)”以及后文“millions at Japanese fish markets”可知，指这种鱼在日本鱼市能卖到数百万美元。故划线词意思是“出售”。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“I’m honored in cave paintings dating back to 3000 BC. Coins from 2000 BC feature me on one side. Five years ago, modern Navy scientists confirmed just how perfectly evolved I am for efficient speed: They modeled their new underwater spy drone (无人机), The GhostSwimmer, on me.(我对公元前3000年的洞穴壁画感到荣幸。公元前2000年的硬币的一面是我。五年前，现代海军的科学家们证实了我在高效速度方面的完美进化：他们以我为原型设计了他们的新型水下间谍无人机“GhostSwimmer”)”可知，第二段的主要内容是金枪鱼在人类生活中的重要作用。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“(鲣鱼是我在商业上最重要的品种，更容易捕获，因此每年出售的价值420亿美元的鲣鱼中有180亿美元是鲣鱼)”可知，鲣鱼每年约占金枪鱼市场的180÷420≈42%。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“If you want to do right by the ocean, however, choose troll-caught or pole-and-line-caught tuna. These “one fish, one hook” methods hunt me without nearly as much unwanted fish. Longlines or huge nets, often wipe out entire schools. Don’t forget that getting rid of a top-level fish like me has severe consequences all the way down the food chain.(然而，如果你想在海洋中做正确的事情，选择巨魔捕获的或杆子和线捕获的金枪鱼。这些“一鱼一钩”的方法几乎不会钓到太多不想要的鱼。延绳钓或大网常常会毁灭整个学校。别忘了，消灭像我这样的顶级鱼类会给整个食物链带来严重后果)”可知，“我”想对人类说不要把我消灭，否则你是在自找麻烦。故选D。 D What have humans done to deserve dogs? They greet us when we come home, comfort us when we’re sad and generally act as loyal companions. Now, researchers are investigating whether tumors (肿瘤) in dogs may help treat tumors in humans. In early April, the Jackson Laboratory began collecting samples of canine (犬的) tumors. Cells from these tumors inserted into mice could help test new drugs and improve our understanding about how cancer develops and progresses. Although cancer results from many factors, genes play a critical role. That means the genetic makeup of a tumor can help determine which drugs work against it. So having a broad and diverse pool of genetic makeups increases the chances of finding the right way to attack each disease. This thinking is particularly relevant for rare cancers and rare mutations (突变). Drawing from a larger pool means more genetic mutations to research. And using tumors from dogs is a nearly ideal way to widen that pool. They’re exposed to many of the same environmental factors that might cause cancer in their owners, notes Dr. Christopher Fulkerson. Some bone and brain cancers are far more common in dogs than they are in people, making samples easier to find. In many cases, the cells in a dog’s cancer look and act the same as they would in a human. They can even carry the same genetic mutations. However, not all canine cancers will be particularly helpful for human-focused research. For some types, the similarities between human and dog diseases will be significant. But when they aren’t, warns Dr. Jaime Modiano, the differences could have serious consequences for drug development. But even when the research doesn’t advance knowledge of human cancers, it could still help improve the treatment of dogs diagnosed (确诊) with cancer. That's the least we can do for our faithful friends. 32. What are the purposes of collecting canine tumors? A. To help design new drugs. B. To better understand cancer. C. To prove dogs are our faithful friends. D. To show cancer results from many factors. 33. Why is using tumors from dogs an ideal way? A. Many dogs have bone and brain cancers. B. Dogs and their owners are good companions. C. Dogs and their owners have similar living conditions and cancer types. D. Using tumors from dogs can help determine which drugs work better. 34. What does the author indicate by mentioning Dr. Jaime Modiano? A. It’s useless to study cancers from dogs. B. Studies on cancers from dogs will bring harmful results. C. Cancers from dogs may not be helpful for fighting human cancers. D. Some similarities between human and dog diseases are significant. 35. What’s the author’s attitude to the research? A. Unconcerned. B. Doubtful. C. Pessimistic. D. Optimistic. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了现在，研究人员正在调查狗身上的肿瘤是否有助于治疗人类的肿瘤。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“In early April, the Jackson Laboratory began collecting samples of canine (犬的) tumors. Cells from these tumors inserted into mice could help test new drugs and improve our understanding about how cancer develops and progresses.(四月初，杰克逊实验室开始收集犬类肿瘤样本。将这些肿瘤细胞植入小鼠体内可以帮助测试新药，并提高我们对癌症发生和发展的理解。)”可推知，收集犬肿瘤的目的是为了更好地了解癌症。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“And using tumors from dogs is a nearly ideal way to widen that pool. They’re exposed to many of the same environmental factors that might cause cancer in their owners, notes Dr. Christopher Fulkerson. Some bone and brain cancers are far more common in dogs than they are in people, making samples easier to find.(利用狗身上的肿瘤是扩大这个范围的一种近乎理想的方法。克里斯托弗·富尔克森博士指出，它们暴露在许多可能导致其主人癌症的相同环境因素中。一些骨癌和脑癌在狗身上比在人身上更常见，这使得样本更容易找到。)”和文章第五段“In many cases, the cells in a dog’s cancer look and act the same as they would in a human. They can even carry the same genetic mutations.(在许多情况下，狗癌症细胞的外观和行为与人类相同。它们甚至可以携带相同的基因突变。)”可知，使用狗的肿瘤是一种理想的方法是因为狗和它们的主人有相似的生活条件和癌症类型。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“For some types, the similarities between human and dog diseases will be significant. But when they aren’t, warns Dr. Jaime Modiano, the differences could have serious consequences for drug development.(对于某些类型，人类和狗的疾病之间的相似之处将是显著的。但杰米·莫迪亚诺博士警告说，如果不是这样，这种差异可能会对药物开发产生严重后果。)”可知，作者提到杰米·莫迪亚诺博士是为了表明来自狗的癌症可能对对抗人类癌症没有帮助。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But even when the research doesn’t advance knowledge of human cancers, it could still help improve the treatment of dogs diagnosed (确诊) with cancer. That's the least we can do for our faithful friends.(但是，即使这项研究没有推进对人类癌症的认识，它仍然可以帮助改善对被诊断患有癌症的狗的治疗。这是我们能为我们忠实的朋友做的最起码的事。)”可推知，作者对这一研究的态度是乐观的。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。 No matter how friendly your tone is or how honey-sweet you are in a conversation, when you start your sentences with one of these words (or both), the message to your recipient is “You are wrong.” ___36___ They are “No” and “But”. These words don’t say, “Let’s discuss this” or “I’d love to hear what you think about this” to people. They say. “You are wrong and I am right.” If your conversation companion is also eager to win at any cost, you will have a potential battle on your hands. The result? ___37___ Are you interested in a little test to see how competitive your co-workers are? Try this. For one week, keep a scorecard of how many times each person uses “No” or “But” to start a sentence. ___38___ And, if you drill a little deeper, you’ll see patterns emerge. For instance, some people use these words to gain power. You’ll see how much people dislike it, consciously or not, and how it kills rather than opens up discussions. ___39___ Practically without even thinking, I keep count of their use of these two little words. It’s such an important indicator! If the numbers pile up in an initial meeting with a client. I’ll interrupt him or her and say. “We’ve been talking for almost an hour now, and do you realize that you have responded 17 times with either ‘No’ or ‘But’?” Stop trying to defend your position and start monitoring how many times you begin remarks with “No” or “But”. ___40___ For example, “That’s true, but…” (Meaning: You don’t really think it’s true at all.) Another expression is “Yes, but...” (Meaning: Prepare to be contradicted.) A. Why do people like saying this? B. I use this technique with my clients. C. What are these conversation stopping words? D. Nothing more can happen that will be productive. E. It’s human nature to like being accepted and recognized. F. You will be shocked at how frequently these words are used. G. Pay close attention to when you use these words in sentences. 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. F 39. B 40. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们聊天时用到频率很高的两个词“No”和“But”，这会把天聊死的。作者建议谈话时使用这两个词的时候一定要多加注意。 【36题详解】 根据上文“No matter how friendly your tone is or how honey-sweet you are in a conversation, when you start your sentences with one of these words (or both), the message to your recipient is “You are wrong.”(无论你的语气多么友好，或者你在谈话中多么甜蜜，当你用其中一个词（或两者）开始句子时，给你的谈话同伴的信息是“你错了”。)”及下文“They are “No” and “But”. (它们是“No”和“But”。)”可知，上文提出了两个谈话中否定别人的两个词，具体给出了这两个词是什么。C项“What are these conversation stopping words? (这些把天聊死的词是什么？)”符合语境，下一句话正是此问句的回答。故选C项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“If your conversation companion is also eager to win at any cost, you will have a potential battle on your hands. The result? (如果你的谈话伙伴也渴望不惜一切代价获胜，你将面临一场潜在的战斗。结果如何？)”可知，空格处应该回答上一个问题，如果谈话双方发生了潜在的战斗，那么结果应该是谈话想要达成的事情肯定没有好的结果。D项“Nothing more can happen that will be productive. (再也不能发生任何富有成效的事情了。)”符合语境，回答了前面的问句。故选D项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“For one week, keep a scorecard of how many times each person uses “No” or “But” to start a sentence. (用一周时间，记下每个人在句子开头使用“否”或“但是”的次数。)”可知，上文建议我们记录一下大家说这两个词的次数。F项“You will be shocked at how frequently these words are used. (你会对这些词的使用频率感到震惊。)”符合语境，选项中how frequently呼应上文how many times。故选F项。 【39题详解】 根据下文“Practically without even thinking, I keep count of their use of these two little words. It’s such an important indicator! If the numbers pile up in an initial meeting with a client. I’ll interrupt him or her and say. “We’ve been talking for almost an hour now, and do you realize that you have responded 17 times with either ‘No’ or ‘But’?”(我几乎不假思索地记着他们对这两个小词的使用。这是一个如此重要的指标！如果在与客户的初次会面中，数字堆积起来。我会打断他或她说。“我们已经谈了将近一个小时了，你意识到你已经17次回答‘不’或‘但是’了吗？”)”可知，下文作者讲述自己和客户会谈的经历和做法，使用了第一人称 I。B项“I use this technique with my clients. (我对我的客户使用这个技巧。)”符合语境，下一句中的their呼应选项中clients，后文也再次用到a client。故选B项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Stop trying to defend your position and start monitoring how many times you begin remarks with “No” or “But”. (不要试图为自己的立场辩护，开始注意自己用“不”或“但是”开头的次数。)”可知，此处作者建议我们也要去注意我们自己使用这两个词的次数。G项“Pay close attention to when you use these words in sentences. (要特别注意你是在什么时候使用的这些词。)”符合语境。故选G项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 Jeff Jens can clearly recall the first time when he realized solar power was the real deal.

I took Isla as a smart, funny friend, but not all students at our school did, especially the girl students. Girls in our school wore fashionable branded clothes, but Isla sewed hers and her curly hair and thick glasses made her look like a fish, which made her stand out like a sore thumb(招眼). For me, sometimes I felt embarrassed to be around Isla, particularly when students said rude words about her hair, clothes, glasses—even about the fact that she got really good grades. Isla always seemed to be able to ignore what other students thought, but I couldn’t. I began to distance myself from her. Our school had a tradition—there was a talent show every spring. Students would sing, dance, play musical instruments, and do whatever they could to show their talents. Being our graduation season in this senior school, this year’s talent show would be obviously different. It would be a huge night. Ava, who was an outgoing girl, invited me to be on her dance team. “We win the talent show every year, and we expect a satisfactory graduation this year,” Ava said to me excitedly. “We need a new dancer. But only you, not her!” Ava pointed to someone behind me. I didn’t need to turn around to see who she meant. “Oh, I see,” I said quietly. Ava had hardly headed out when someone tapped on my shoulder. It was Isla. When I saw her confused face, it was like waking up from a dream. Isla asked me eagerly, “Emily, are you going to take part in the talent show?” I hesitated without response. “That’s great, Emily!” Isla told me without waiting for my answer that she was also going to participate this year. I couldn’t believe what I had heard. I started to worry about her when I imagined that she was in front of a huge crowd, and that everybody would laugh at her. Time passed quickly, and I had barely seen Isla since then. For me, I had to practice hard every day with Ava and the team to keep up since the other dancers had already known the steps. 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。 Ultimately, it was my turn to perform, and I felt extremely nervous. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I stepped off the stage and expressed my thanks to Isla, who was ready to sing. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Ultimately, it was my turn to perform, and I felt extremely nervous. I didn’t want to be regarded as different from the others. Isla walked to me and hugged me tightly. “Come on, Emily!” Isla encouraged me. “I believe you will do great because you are a wonderful dancer. Don’t care too much about what others think. Just trust yourself.” Soon, I took my place on the stage. I remembered every step and every move. When the music was over, the crowd burst into cheers. At that moment, I felt like a dancing queen! I stepped off the stage and expressed my thanks to Isla, who was ready to sing. I was a little worried at the beginning because the crowd became restless. Luckily, Isla ignored it. I stood up, shouting, “Isla, you are the best!” Her homemade dress was shining in the light, but her eyes were clouded with tears. When Isla’s singing died down, all the students were still lost in her unique voice. Some even began singing like her, and then more. Their singing resounded around the hall. I rushed to the stage after her performance, hugging her cheerfully. That was enough! We could never be distanced. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物为线索。作者和Isla是好朋友，但Isla的着装打扮与学校时尚的女孩格格不入，她们总是对她评头论足。Isla对别人的看法毫不在意，但作者觉得很尴尬，慢慢疏远了Isla。作者被Ava邀请一起参加才艺表演，Isla也打算参加。在表演当天，作者非常紧张，Isla鼓励了作者，这让作者顺利完成了精彩的表演，而Isla在舞台上穿着自制的服装演唱着动听的歌曲，获得了大家的认可。这件事让俩人重新变得亲密起来。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“最终，轮到我表演了，我感到非常紧张。”可知，第一段可以描写Isla的鼓励让作者成功完成了表演。 ②由续写第二段首句“我走下舞台，向准备唱歌的Isla表示感谢。”可知，第二段可以描写在Isla上台表演之前，作者向她表示了感谢，并为她加油，Isla用自己优美的歌声震撼了大家，二人关系重新变得亲密起来。 2. 段落续写：紧张——受到Isla的鼓励——成功完成表演——向Isla感谢——为Isla加油——Isla用优美的歌声征服了大家——二人重归于好 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①被认为：be regarded as/be thought of as/be seen as ②鼓励：encourage/inspire ③在意：care about/take notice of/mind ④逐渐变淡：die down/fade away 情绪类 ①担心的：worried/concerned ②高兴地：cheerfully /merrily ③紧张的：nervous/jittery 【点睛】【高分句型1】Don’t care too much about what others think.(使用了祈使句、what引导宾语从句) 【高分句型2】I rushed to the stage after her performance, hugging her cheerfully.(使用了现在分词作状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
