B Deanna Stellato-Dudek retired in 2001 because of injuries. But this week, she achieved the unthinkable. With her partner Maxime Deschamps, the 40-year-old former retiree defeated athletes less than half her age and became the oldest woman to win a World Figure Skating Championship. Even more remarkable, she did it in the pairs event, in which the top women are thrown across the ice, lifted over their partners’ heads with one arm, and tossed (抛) more than 10 feet in the air. Stellato-Dudek had an impressive junior career as a singles skater, winning the 1999-2000 International Junior Grand Prix Final and receiving the silver medal at the 2000 World Junior Championships. However, by 2001, a few significant injuries led to her decision to retire at age 17. For the next 16 years, Stellato-Dudek lived a relatively normal adulthood. She became a successful aesthetician (美学家) and got married. She was no longer attempting risky triple (转体三周的) jumps on international ice. But the feelings of unfinished business kept disturbing her — whether she had quit the sport too early and whether she had more to achieve in skating. So she tried on her old skates and attempted the impossible — learning how to become a pairs skater in her 30s and returning to competitive ice. Her efforts paid off, and now Stellato-Dudek and her partner are unlikely world champions at ages 40 and 32. Stellato-Dudek said she hoped the historic victory inspired everyone, even non-skaters, who might think it was too late to pursue and achieve their goals. “I hope it encourages people not to stop before they reach their potential,” she told reporters after winning the title Thursday night. Stellato-Dudek is not done. Her next major goal is to compete in the 2026 Winter Olympics at age 42. “She is a fighter,” her partner said. “For her, it’s the Olympics every day. ” 4. What do we know about Stellato-Dudek from paragraph 1? A. She entered the competition alone. B. She was younger than her competitors. C. She returned to skating because she lost her job. D. She won the championship in pairs skating. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Stellato-Dudek? A. Her past achievements. B. Her career plans. C. The challenges she met. D. The training she went through. 6. What did Stellato-Dudek do after her retirement? A. She worked as a coach. B. She got married. C. She threw away her old skates. D. She kept trying risky triple jumps. 7. Which word can best describe Stellato-Dudek? A. Wise and sympathetic. B. Ambitious and determined. C. Creative and generous. D. Considerate and cautious. C Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts (烟头) and plastic bags. A group of European scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica. Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have a special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger. However, in the end, human rubbish may only bring more harm to birds. The toxic chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study. To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt. Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. 8. What did the European scientists find? A. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds. B. Some people help birds build their nests. C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica. D. Birds can help pick up rubbish. 9. What does the underlined word “toxic” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Smelly. B. Beneficial. C. Poisonous. D. Splendid. 10. How can cigarette butts “help” birds? A. They can burn other harmful rubbish. B. They can make nests stronger. C. They can keep birds warm. D. They can keep insects away. 11. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The harmful activities that humans have done to the environment. B. The harm that the environment brings to the wild animals. C. The reason why birds like using rubbish to build their nests. D. Human rubbish may bring more harm to birds. D The winner of the Natural History Museum of London’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award is Nima Sarikhani, for her image of a polar bear sleeping on sea ice, which is called “Ice Bed”. It was taken in Norway’s Svalbard archipelago. Sarikhani spent three days looking for polar bears but without success as they were trapped in a thick fog. But then, as the ship came across some sea ice, she saw two polar bears. She and her team tracked them for eight hours. And under the light of the midnight sun, the bear clawed out a bed on a small iceberg before sleeping. The photograph inspires strong emotions in all its viewers. While climate change is the biggest challenge for humans, the photograph also inspires hope that there is still time to fix the mess we have caused. Polar bears are known to dig themselves spots to sleep in, which are sometimes referred to as “day bed”. They’re also known to take one-to two-hour-long sleeps, especially after a good meal. According to the museum, the area where the polar bear was taken on film is among the most isolated (孤立) in the world, and holds a population of 19 polar bears that rely on the sea ice to travel and hunt offshore. But air temperatures in Svalbard have increased by 3℃ to 5℃over the past 40 to 50 years, which has resulted in heavy winter rainfall and some areas being ice-free most of the year. While the bears that follow sea ice may still be able to hunt year-round, this is increasingly over deeper waters, which may be less productive. Less sea ice for polar bears to use as a way to safely travel has also led to the animals having less genetic (基因的) diversity. There aren’t as many opportunities for different groups to mix. This is leading to increased inbreeding among local bears. At present, Svalbard’s polar bear population is still considered to be stable, but as global temperatures continue to increase, that may not be the case for long. 12. What made it difficult for Sarikhani to spot polar bears in the beginning? A. The outdated equipment. B. The terrible weather. C. The lack of support. D. The tight schedule. 13. What poses a risk to polar bears in Svalbard? A. The loss of sea ice. B. The extremely low temperature. C. The isolated position. D. The increase in genetic diversity. 14. What is the author’s attitude to the future of Svalbard’s polar bears? A. Uncaring. B. Worried. C. Unclear. D. Optimistic. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Norway’s Svalbard Archipelago B. The Biggest Challenge for Polar Bears C. An Award-Winning Photo “Ice Bed” D. The Reduction in Polar Bear Population 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Fungi (真菌) play an important role in ecosystems, are a source of food, and make key contributions to the world of medicine. ____16____ An estimated two million fungal species — more than 90% of all fungi — have yet to be described by science, according to a science reporter. ____17____ Scientists are trying to find out more about this largely unexplored world, but it is challenging. Dr Martyn Ainsworth, a senior researcher from Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in London, says, “We can grow a certain number in the lab. ____18____ This has held back a lot of research.” ____19____ “A lot of people are afraid of poisonous mushrooms,” says Dr Jassy Drakulic, a plant pathologist, “but only a very small proportion of the thousands of species of fungi in the world can cause disease.” Most are harmless and often beneficial, called by some “the hidden helpers of our environment”. Some fungi provide food and shelter for wildlife, help plants absorb water and nutrients and recycle waste and dead matter. Other types of fungi grow on the roots of trees and plants, forming a huge underground network that helps nourish trees. ____20____ So next time you add mushrooms to your dinner, take a painkiller for a headache, or go for a walk through the woods, remember to thank the living things that made it all possible — fungi. A. Are mushrooms a type of fungus? B. So, why do we know so little about them? C. Wetlands are important because they provide food and shelter for wildlife. D. The fact that we know so little about fungi leads us to misunderstand them. E. “Fungi are really the behind-the-scenes team doing all the work,” adds Dr Ainsworth. F. But there is a whole host of fungi that we cannot grow in the lab. G. In the UK, there are around 25,000 species of fungi — five or six times more than plants. 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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In February 2020, Max’s friend Rick was diagnosed with cancer.

For two long years, Bolster had been homeless. Every day was a struggle for survival. Every night was a battle against hopelessness. Bolster would often find herself in tears, her gaze lost in the labyrinth (迷宫) of city streets. “I had been in tears, thinking to myself,” she recalled later, “‘God, when is the tide going to turn?’” But little did she know that her tide was about to turn in the most unexpected way Despite her circumstances, Bolster had always loved to sing. On occasion, she would find comfort in her voice, using it to drown out the noise of the city and the clamor (喧闹)of her own troubles. One day, as she sang on a street corner, her voice caught the ear of a stranger. Matt Shearer, a radio news reporter, had been out covering another story but found himself captivated by the woman’s song. There was something raw and real in her voice that touched him deeply. He approached Bolster and struck up a conversation, sensing that there was a greater story here than the one he had initially set out to find. As they talked, Bolster shared with Shearer what mattered most to her — a song she had written during her darkest hours. The lyrics were scribbled (潦草地写) on a piece of cardboard that had once served as her mattress (床垫) at night. The melody existed only in her mind, but it was a tune that held great significance for her. This song was not just words; it was her life story, her pain, her joy, and her hope all rolled into one powerful anthem (赞歌). Shearer was moved by Bolster’s passion for her music and her desire to share it with the world. He knew deep down that he could help make this dream a reality. With connections in the music industry and a strong sense of purpose, Shearer vowed to help Bolster record her song professionally. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右； 2. 段落开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: A few days later, Shearer drove her to a destination that would change her life forever — a recording studio. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: With Shearer’s backing, Bolster uploaded her creation to Bandcamp, a platform where independent artists can shine. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 BAACC 6—10 BCBAA 11—15 BCAAC 16—20 CCBBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 葫芦岛市普通高中2023-2024学年下学期期末考试 高一英语 考生注意： 1. 试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 本考试分设试卷和答题纸。试卷包括Ⅰ卷和Ⅱ卷两部分。 3. 答题前，务必在答题纸上按要求填写信息，并将核对后的条形码贴在指定位置上。作答必须涂或写在答题纸上，在试卷上作答一律不得分。Ⅰ卷部分的作答必须涂在答题纸上相应的区域，Ⅱ卷部分的作答必须写在答题纸上与试卷题号对应的位置。 第Ⅰ卷（三部分，共95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。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

With her partner Maxime Deschamps, the 40-year-old former retiree defeated athletes less than half her age and became the oldest woman to win a World Figure Skating Championship. Even more remarkable, she did it in the pairs event, in which the top women are thrown across the ice, lifted over their partners’ heads with one arm, and tossed (抛) more than 10 feet in the air. Stellato-Dudek had an impressive junior career as a singles skater, winning the 1999-2000 International Junior Grand Prix Final and receiving the silver medal at the 2000 World Junior Championships. However, by 2001, a few significant injuries led to her decision to retire at age 17. For the next 16 years, Stellato-Dudek lived a relatively normal adulthood. She became a successful aesthetician (美学家) and got married. She was no longer attempting risky triple (转体三周的) jumps on international ice. But the feelings of unfinished business kept disturbing her — whether she had quit the sport too early and whether she had more to achieve in skating. So she tried on her old skates and attempted the impossible — learning how to become a pairs skater in her 30s and returning to competitive ice. Her efforts paid off, and now Stellato-Dudek and her partner are unlikely world champions at ages 40 and 32. Stellato-Dudek said she hoped the historic victory inspired everyone, even non-skaters, who might think it was too late to pursue and achieve their goals. “I hope it encourages people not to stop before they reach their potential,” she told reporters after winning the title Thursday night. Stellato-Dudek is not done. Her next major goal is to compete in the 2026 Winter Olympics at age 42. “She is a fighter,” her partner said. “For her, it’s the Olympics every day. ” 4. What do we know about Stellato-Dudek from paragraph 1? A. She entered the competition alone. B. She was younger than her competitors. C. She returned to skating because she lost her job. D. She won the championship in pairs skating. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Stellato-Dudek? A. Her past achievements. B. Her career plans. C. The challenges she met. D. The training she went through. 6. What did Stellato-Dudek do after her retirement? A. She worked as a coach. B. She got married. C. She threw away her old skates. D. She kept trying risky triple jumps. 7. Which word can best describe Stellato-Dudek? A. Wise and sympathetic. B. Ambitious and determined. C. Creative and generous. D. Considerate and cautious. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Deanna Stellato-Dudek 赢得世界花样滑冰锦标赛双人滑项目冠军的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Deanna Stellato-Dudek retired in 2001 because of injuries. But this week, she achieved the unthinkable. With her partner Maxime Deschamps, the 40-year-old former retiree defeated athletes less than half her age and became the oldest woman to win a World Figure Skating Championship.( 迪安娜·斯特拉托-杜德克于2001年因伤退役。但本周，她实现了一件不可思议的事。与搭档马克西姆·德尚(Maxime Deschamps)一起，这位40岁的前退役运动员击败了年龄不到她一半的运动员，成为赢得世界花样滑冰冠军的年龄最大的女性)”可知，Stellato-Dudek 赢得了双人滑冰的冠军。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段内容“Stellato-Dudek had an impressive junior career as a singles skater, winning the 1999 — 2000 International Junior Grand Prix Final and receiving the silver me dal at the 2000 World Junior Championships.(斯特拉托-杜德克的青少年单人滑生涯令人印象深刻，他赢得了1999-2000年国际青少年大奖赛决赛，并在2000年世界青少年锦标赛上获得银牌)”可知，本段主要介绍了Stellato-Dudek过去的成就。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, by 2001, a few significant injuries led to her decision to retire at age 17. For the next 16 years, Stellato-Dudek lived a relatively normal adulthood. She became a successful aesthetician(美学家)and got married.(然而，到了2001年，几次严重的伤病导致她决定在17岁时退役。在接下来的16年里，斯特拉托-杜德克过着相对正常的成年生活。她成为了一名成功的美学家并结婚了)”可知，Stellato-Dudek退役后结婚了。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“So she tried on her old skates and attempted the impossible — learning how to become a pairs skater in her 30s and returning to competitive ice.(于是，她穿上旧冰鞋，尝试着完成不可能完成的任务——学习如何在30多岁时成为一名双人滑运动员，并重返赛场)”，和最后一段“Stellato-Dudek is not done. Her next major goal is to compete in the 2026 Winter Olympics at age 42.”She is a fighter,” her partner said. “For her, it’s the Olympics every day.”(斯特拉托-杜德克还没结束。她的下一个主要目标是在42岁时参加2026年冬奥会。“她是个斗士，”她的伴侣说。“对她来说，每天都是奥运会。”)”可推断，Stellato-Dudek是一个有决心和抱负的人。故选B。 C Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts (烟头) and plastic bags. A group of European scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica. Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have a special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger. However, in the end, human rubbish may only bring more harm to birds. The toxic chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study. To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt. Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. 8. What did the European scientists find? A. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds. B. Some people help birds build their nests. C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica. D. Birds can help pick up rubbish. 9. What does the underlined word “toxic” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Smelly. B. Beneficial. C. Poisonous. D. Splendid. 10. How can cigarette butts “help” birds? A. They can burn other harmful rubbish. B. They can make nests stronger. C. They can keep birds warm. D. They can keep insects away. 11. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The harmful activities that humans have done to the environment. B. The harm that the environment brings to the wild animals. C. The reason why birds like using rubbish to build their nests. D. Human rubbish may bring more harm to birds. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章对于鸟类在筑巢时使用垃圾这一现象进行了介绍，特别是探讨了鸟类为何会利用像烟头和塑料袋等人造物品筑巢，以及这一行为背后对鸟类产生的正反两面影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica.”（他们发现除了南极洲之外，几乎地球上所有地方的鸟巢中都有人造物品）可知，欧洲科学家发现许多鸟类的巢穴中有垃圾。故选A项。 【9题详解】 词义推测题。根据文章第三段“The toxic chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds.”（烟头中的toxic化学物质伤害幼鸟）可知，有毒的化学物质会伤害幼鸟。toxic的意思是“有毒的”，与C项“Poisonous”同义。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“For example, cigarette butts have a special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds.”（例如，烟头有一种特殊的味道，可以驱赶昆虫，保护幼鸟）可知，烟头可以帮助鸟类是因为它们能驱赶昆虫。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt. Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment.”（更糟糕的是，如果烟还在燃烧，当鸟把它带回它的家，它可能会点燃鸟巢。渔网的碎片也可能困住鸟类，它们不可能自己出来。如果幼鸟不小心吃了其他种类的垃圾，它们也会受伤。我们在空中的鸟朋友正在感受人类污染环境的不良影响。）可知，第四段主要关于人类的垃圾可能会给鸟类带来更多的伤害。故选D项。 D The winner of the Natural History Museum of London’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award is Nima Sarikhani, for her image of a polar bear sleeping on sea ice, which is called “Ice Bed”. It was taken in Norway’s Svalbard archipelago. Sarikhani spent three days looking for polar bears but without success as they were trapped in a thick fog. But then, as the ship came across some sea ice, she saw two polar bears. She and her team tracked them for eight hours. And under the light of the midnight sun, the bear clawed out a bed on a small iceberg before sleeping. The photograph inspires strong emotions in all its viewers. While climate change is the biggest challenge for humans, the photograph also inspires hope that there is still time to fix the mess we have caused. Polar bears are known to dig themselves spots to sleep in, which are sometimes referred to as “day bed”. They’re also known to take one-to two-hour-long sleeps, especially after a good meal. According to the museum, the area where the polar bear was taken on film is among the most isolated (孤立) in the world, and holds a population of 19 polar bears that rely on the sea ice to travel and hunt offshore. But air temperatures in Svalbard have increased by 3℃ to 5℃over the past 40 to 50 years, which has resulted in heavy winter rainfall and some areas being ice-free most of the year. While the bears that follow sea ice may still be able to hunt year-round, this is increasingly over deeper waters, which may be less productive. Less sea ice for polar bears to use as a way to safely travel has also led to the animals having less genetic (基因的) diversity. There aren’t as many opportunities for different groups to mix. This is leading to increased inbreeding among local bears. At present, Svalbard’s polar bear population is still considered to be stable, but as global temperatures continue to increase, that may not be the case for long. 12. What made it difficult for Sarikhani to spot polar bears in the beginning? A. The outdated equipment. B. The terrible weather. C. The lack of support. D. The tight schedule. 13. What poses a risk to polar bears in Svalbard? A. The loss of sea ice. B. The extremely low temperature. C. The isolated position. D. The increase in genetic diversity. 14. What is the author’s attitude to the future of Svalbard’s polar bears? A. Uncaring. B. Worried. C. Unclear. D. Optimistic. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Norway’s Svalbard Archipelago B. The Biggest Challenge for Polar Bears C. An Award-Winning Photo “Ice Bed” D. The Reduction in Polar Bear Population 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一则新闻报道。世界上最负盛名的野生动物摄影奖之一的获奖照片是一只迷人又可爱的北极熊，由此引发了人们对于保护北极熊，关注气候变暖的共鸣。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Sarikhani spent three days looking for polar bears but without success as they were trapped in a thick fog.(Sarikhani花了三天时间寻找北极熊，但没有成功，因为他们被困在浓雾中)”可知，糟糕的天气状况使发现北极熊的工作非常困难。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“According to the museum, the area where the polar bear was taken on film is among the most isolated (孤立) in the world, and holds a population of 19 polar bears that rely on the sea ice to travel and hunt offshore. But air temperatures in Svalbard have increased by 3℃ to 5℃over the past 40 to 50 years, which has resulted in heavy winter rainfall and some areas being ice-free most of the year.(据博物馆介绍，拍摄北极熊的地区是世界上最与世隔绝的地区之一，这里有19只北极熊，它们依靠海冰在海上旅行和捕猎。但在过去的40到50年里，斯瓦尔巴群岛的气温上升了3到5摄氏度，这导致了冬季的强降雨，一些地区一年中大部分时间都没有冰)”可知，北极熊依靠海冰在海上行走和捕猎， 但是随着气温上升，海冰减少，它们捕猎的成果可能会减少。也就是说，海冰的减少会对北极熊造成威胁。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“At present, Svalbard’s polar bear population is still considered to be stable, but as global temperatures continue to increase, that may not be the case for long.(目前，斯瓦尔巴群岛的北极熊数量仍然被认为是稳定的，但随着全球气温的持续上升，这种情况可能不会持续太久)”可推知，作者担忧该地区的北极熊。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The winner of the Natural History Museum of London’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award is Nima Sarikhani, for her image of a polar bear sleeping on sea ice, which is called “Ice Bed”. It was taken in Norway’s Svalbard archipelago.(Nima Sarikhani获得了伦敦自然历史博物馆年度野生动物摄影师奖，她拍摄了一只北极熊在海冰上睡觉的照片，这张照片被称为“冰床”。这张照片拍摄于挪威的斯瓦尔巴群岛)”结合文章主要说明了世界上最负盛名的野生动物摄影奖之一的获奖照片是一只迷人又可爱的北极熊，由此引发了人们对于保护北极熊，关注气候变暖的共鸣。C选项“获奖照片《冰床》”最符合文章标题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Fungi (真菌) play an important role in ecosystems, are a source of food, and make key contributions to the world of medicine. ____16____ An estimated two million fungal species — more than 90% of all fungi — have yet to be described by science, according to a science reporter. ____17____ Scientists are trying to find out more about this largely unexplored world, but it is challenging. Dr Martyn Ainsworth, a senior researcher from Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in London, says, “We can grow a certain number in the lab. ____18____ This has held back a lot of research.” ____19____ “A lot of people are afraid of poisonous mushrooms,” says Dr Jassy Drakulic, a plant pathologist, “but only a very small proportion of the thousands of species of fungi in the world can cause disease.” Most are harmless and often beneficial, called by some “the hidden helpers of our environment”. Some fungi provide food and shelter for wildlife, help plants absorb water and nutrients and recycle waste and dead matter. Other types of fungi grow on the roots of trees and plants, forming a huge underground network that helps nourish trees. ____20____ So, next time you add mushrooms to your dinner, take a painkiller for a headache, or go for a walk through the woods, remember to thank the living things that made it all possible — fungi. A. Are mushrooms a type of fungus? B. So, why do we know so little about them? C. Wetlands are important because they provide food and shelter for wildlife. D. The fact that we know so little about fungi leads us to misunderstand them. E. “Fungi are really the behind-the-scenes team doing all the work,” adds Dr Ainsworth. F. But there is a whole host of fungi that we cannot grow in the lab. G. In the UK, there are around 25,000 species of fungi — five or six times more than plants. 【答案】16. B 17. G 18. F 19. D 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了真菌的作用。 【16题详解】 上文“Fungi (真菌) play an important role in ecosystems, are a source of food, and make key contributions to the world of medicine.( 真菌在生态系统中发挥着重要作用，是食物的来源，并为医学界做出了重要贡献)”提到真菌的重要作用，下文“An estimated two million fungal specie — more than 90% of all fungi — have yet to be described by science(估计有200万种真菌——占所有真菌的90%以上——尚未被科学描述)”提到90%以上的真菌尚未被科学描述，B项“那么，为什么我们对它们知之甚少呢？”承上启下，B项中it指代上文中的“Fungi”，故选B。 【17题详解】 根据上文“An estimated two million fungal specie — more than 90% of all fungi — have yet to be described by science(估计有200万种真菌——占所有真菌的90%以上——尚未被科学描述)”可知，估计有200万种真菌尚未被科学描述，G项“在英国，大约有25000种真菌，是植物的5到6倍”承接上文，进一步描述真菌的庞大数量，故选G。 【18题详解】 上文“We can grow a certain number in the lab.(我们可以在实验室里培育一定数量的植物)”提到可以在实验室里培育一定数量的植物，结合下文“This has held back a lot of research.(这阻碍了很多研究)”可知，空处应是提及阻碍研究的因素，F项“但是有很多真菌是我们无法在实验室里培养的”符合语境，故选F。 【19题详解】 根据下文“‘A lot of people are afraid of poisonous mushrooms,’ says Dr Jassy Drakulic, a plant pathologist, ‘but only a very small proportion of the thousands of species of fungi in the world can cause disease.’(植物病理学家Jassy Drakulic博士说：‘很多人都害怕有毒的蘑菇，但在世界上成千上万种真菌中，只有很小一部分会致病。’)”可知，真菌被人们误解，D项“我们对真菌知之甚少，这使我们对它们产生了误解”符合语境，故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Other types of fungi grow on the roots of trees and plants, forming a huge underground network that helps nourish trees.(其他种类的真菌生长在树木和植物的根部，形成一个巨大的地下网络，帮助滋养树木)”可知，真菌生长在树木和植物的根部，形成一个巨大的地下网络，帮助滋养树木，E项“‘真菌确实是幕后团队，完成了所有的工作，’Ainsworth博士补充道”总结上文真菌的作用，E项“behind-the-scenes”呼应上文“a huge underground network”，真菌在地下形成巨大的网络，是幕后团队，故选E。 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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In February 2020, Max’s friend Rick was diagnosed with cancer.

For two long years, Bolster had been homeless. Every day was a struggle for survival. Every night was a battle against hopelessness. Bolster would often find herself in tears, her gaze lost in the labyrinth (迷宫) of city streets. “I had been in tears, thinking to myself,” she recalled later, “‘God, when is the tide going to turn?’” But little did she know that her tide was about to turn in the most unexpected way. Despite her circumstances, Bolster had always loved to sing. On occasion, she would find comfort in her voice, using it to drown out the noise of the city and the clamor (喧闹)of her own troubles. One day, as she sang on a street corner, her voice caught the ear of a stranger. Matt Shearer, a radio news reporter, had been out covering another story but found himself captivated by the woman’s song. There was something raw and real in her voice that touched him deeply. He approached Bolster and struck up a conversation, sensing that there was a greater story here than the one he had initially set out to find. As they talked, Bolster shared with Shearer what mattered most to her — a song she had written during her darkest hours. The lyrics were scribbled (潦草地写) on a piece of cardboard that had once served as her mattress (床垫) at night. The melody existed only in her mind, but it was a tune that held great significance for her. This song was not just words; it was her life story, her pain, her joy, and her hope all rolled into one powerful anthem (赞歌). Shearer was moved by Bolster’s passion for her music and her desire to share it with the world. He knew deep down that he could help make this dream a reality. With connections in the music industry and a strong sense of purpose, Shearer vowed to help Bolster record her song professionally. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右； 2. 段落开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: A few days later, Shearer drove her to a destination that would change her life forever — a recording studio. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: With Shearer’s backing, Bolster uploaded her creation to Bandcamp, a platform where independent artists can shine. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A few days later, Shearer drove her to a destination that would change her life forever – a recording studio. As they stepped inside, the air was thick with anticipation and the hum of high-tech equipment. Surrounded by mics and sound boards, Bolster felt a rush of emotions: part thrill, part jitters. Luckily, Shearer's connections had brought in a team of experts – an engineer and a producer – to guide her through the process. And as they hit record, something incredible happened. The very song that had been Bolster's beacon of hope during her toughest times now filled the room with its raw, emotional energy, capturing the push and pull of love’s complex dance. “I was blown away,” Shearer exclaimed, his voice heavy with awe. “Her lyrics were so powerful – they spoke straight to the heart.” With Shearer's backing, Bolster uploaded her creation to Bandcamp, a platform where independent artists can shine. What happened next was nothing short of miraculous: her song struck a chord with listeners worldwide, racking up nearly $5,000 in downloads in just a few weeks. As the song’s popularity continued to soar, it became a beacon of hope for others seeking to overcome adversity and pursue their dreams. For Bolster, this wasn’t just about the money; it was about transforming despair into hope, invisibility into recognition, and most profoundly, forging an unbreakable bond of friendship that defied all expectations. In a world often shadowed by harshness and despair, their story shines brightly, standing as a testament to the power of human empathy and support which can have a ripple effect that transcends time and space. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个名叫Ara Bolster女人在波士顿流浪两年的经历。她面临着生存的困境，每天都是一场求生的斗争，每晚都是对绝望的抗争。然而，在她最不期而遇的时刻，她的命运开始出现转机。尽管环境困顿，Bolster一直热爱唱歌，她的歌声吸引了一位陌生人，Matt Shearer，在一次意外的相遇中，两人开始交谈。Bolster与Shearer分享了她最在意的一首歌曲，这首歌词早已潦草地写在她的床垫上。Shearer被Bolster对音乐的激情以及她与世界分享音乐的愿望所感动，决心帮助她专业地录制歌曲。这段故事强调了希望、人性的力量以及无论环境如何压抑都能够找到转机的可能性。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几天后，希勒开车送她去了一个将永远改变她生活目的地——一个录音室。”可知，第一段可描写录音室的环境，以及录音的过程和感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“在希勒的支持下，Bolster将她的作品上传到了Bandcamp，这是一个独立艺术家可以大放异彩的平台”可知，第二段可描写她的歌曲在网络上很受欢迎，以及带来的影响。 2. 续写线索：录音室——兴奋——指导——感受——上传——影响 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①迈进：stepped inside/walked in/entered/advanced ②填满：filled/flooded/overflowed/brimmed ③引导：guided/directed/led/ushered 情绪类 ①兴奋：thrill/excitement/exhilaration/enthusiasm ②紧张：jitters/nervousness/anxiety/tension 【点睛】【高分句型1】As they stepped inside, the air was thick with anticipation and the hum of high-tech equipment.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】In a world often shadowed by harshness and despair, their story shines brightly, standing as a testament to the power of human empathy and support which can have a ripple effect that transcends time and space.(运用了which引导的限制性定语从句) 听力 1—5 BAACC 6—10 BCBAA 11—15 BCAAC 16—20 CCBBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
