B I used to hate old books. When I say “old books”, I don’t mean classics, though. I mean books with yellow pages, broken spines (书脊) and odd wood-like smells that you need to be careful not to break because they are already so worn down and bring you severe discomfort. One can assume that I didn’t own many old books. I had merely a few here and there that my parents had gifted me, but nothing too special. In the fourth grade, I was ready to explore a new world of reading, one that went beyond the likes of children’s chapter books and teenagers’ topics. Just then, I found my parents’ old copies of the entire Harry Potter book series. Visually, my parents’ books were my worst nightmare. I remember thinking to myself that there was no way I would be able to read these books. However, I eventually had to come to terms with the fact that if I wanted to read the series, I would have to read my parents’ copies. And so began the terrible journey of reading seven old books. When it was time for me to read the final copy, I was kind of a changed woman. I still strongly disliked old books, but the plot of the entire Harry Potter series had attracted me so much I had almost entirely forgotten what the books looked like. By the end, I had devoted the entire Harry Potter bookshelf in my room. Now, I love old books. While the covers are sometimes so worn down that you can barely read the title of the book, you can understand what it’s about anyway. After all, an old book is a representation of generations of readers who have chosen to live in a specific fictional world because the story it contains is just that good. Old books have meaning and I love how much they mean to me now. 4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs? A. She felt uneasy about owning old books. B. She was on bad terms with her parents. C. She grew fondness for reading classics. D. She was often gifted old books by her parents. 5. How did the author feel when seeing her parents’ Harry Potter series in the fourth grade? A. Confused B. Scared C. Discouraged. D. Astonished. 6. What does the author mean by saying “I was kind of a changed woman” in paragraph 3? A. She started to enjoy reading fictional books. B. She began to ignore the appearance of the books. C. She accepted putting old books on her shelf. D. She figured out what she truly wanted to read. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. My Passion for Reading B. My Connection With Parents via Old Books C. My Encounter With the Harry Potter Series D. My Journey With Old Books C Humans make decisions using statistical information every day. For example, we weigh the likelihood of various factors when deciding what to bet in card games. However, humans aren’t alone in using statistical inferences in decision-making. Until now, human cousins like monkeys and also some birds have been identified as the only animals to show evidence of reasoning based on probability and statistics, which requires advanced mental power. These animals have large brains relative to their body size, which is often associated with high intelligence. Researchers from the University of Barcelona oppugned such statements and suspected that an animal with a small brain relative to its body size could perform statistical reasoning as well. Giraffes were an ideal choice. But researchers had a concern: When we choose a checkout line at a grocery store, we typically just count the number of people in each line, not weighing the probability. Statistical reasoning is quite distinct from basic counting. Giraffes have already exhibited an ability to perform quantity discrimination, being able to tell a larger number of items from a smaller number, which poses a challenge for the researchers to confirm their suspicion. So the research team settled on a special approach where they started with a mixture of carrots the animal desires along with zucchinis (密生西葫芦) they dislike and varied the number and proportion (比例) of both items. The researchers placed different proportions of carrots and zucchinis into two plastic containers to test whether the giraffes could predict a higher likelihood of receiving a carrot. Each test consisted of 20 trials in which a researcher selected a piece of food from each container without showing it to the giraffes. The giraffes then touched the hand they wanted to eat from, using only the information they had from the containers. In the first test, where one container had 20 carrots and 80 zucchinis and another had go carrots and 20 zucchinis, each giraffe chose the hand that had a higher probability of holding a carrot at least 17 times. In the following two tests, the proportion of carrots and zucchinis was changed. Yet again the giraffes chose correctly. The combined results indicated that the researchers’ idea held water. 8. What can be inferred in paragraph 2? A. Statistical reasoning is unique to humans. B. Animals with larger bodies have larger brains. C. Large animals are smart enough to perform reasoning. D. Brain size is positively related to intelligence. 9. What does the underlined word “oppugned” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Declared. B. Questioned. C. Explained. D. Applauded. 10. Why did the research team introduce a special approach to the study? A. To test the giraffes’ ability to perform basic counting. B. To determine whether giraffes prefer carrots or zucchinis. C. To rule out the effect of giraffes’ quantity discrimination. D. To observe the giraffes’ behavior in different situations. 11. What do the test results show? A. Giraffes are capable of statistical reasoning. B. Giraffes’ sense of proportion is relatively limited. C. Giraffes rely on visual information to make food choices. D. Giraffes’ food preferences can be changed through training. D Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains. The reasoning goes that each of us has a “level” of empathy and—like our adult height—we’re stuck there for life. This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try. Thankfully, this view is incomplete. Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows. No emotion is always useful, and that goes for empathy as well. This is especially true for nurses, doctors and other caregivers. These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to help others. Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care. However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering. Some psychologists, including myself, are now exploring how people in these professions might empathize in more sustainable ways. For example, empathetic concern-—feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart. In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it. For instance, people who were encouraged to have a “growth mindset” around empathy, as compared to a fixed mindset, spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the political divide. 12. What view do many philosophers and psychologists have about empathy? A. It grows when practiced often. B. It is a result of individual experiences. C. It is inborn and difficult to develop. D. It varies depending on one’s upbringing. 13. What does the author suggest doctors do? A. Develop their emotional empathy. B. Try to erase their patients’ concern. C. Care for their patients as much as possible. D. Work on improving their empathetic concern. 14. Based on Carol Dweek’s studies in which situation are people willingly empathetic? A. If they believe that empathy is flexible. B. If they are given enough attention. C. If they listen to the identical political views. D. If they suffer racial discrimination. 15 In which unit of a textbook does the text most likely appear? A. Understanding yourself more. B. Feeling for others. C. Exploring genes and emotions. D. Repairing broken relationships. 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。 A Century of Change The last 100 years have seen major transformations in news reporting. Print newspapers dominated the early 1900s, but in November 1922, the dawn (曙光) of radio news arrived when the BBC launched its first daily radio service. It marketed itself as news by and for social elites (精英).____16____In the 1950s, news shifted to television broadcasting. A dramatic change came in 1980 with the creation of America’s Cable News Network (CNN)—the world’s first 24-hour television news network. ____17____The Internet has become a key site for sharing information, and news is more accessible than it has ever been before. Crises can be reported from on the ground by people who closely understand them. Stories can be shared with the click of a button.____18____In the time it takes for a story to move from a news site to Facebook to your WhatsApp group chat, context is lost and facts go unchecked. In 2016, we witnessed an important moment for the news landscape. Following a US election dogged by dishonesty and misinformation spread largely on social media, Oxford Dictionaries announced “post-truth” as its international word of the year.____19____ With so much information at our fingertips, the considerable volume of news can be irresistible. Besides, there is increasing uncertainty about what is true and what is not. So it is no wonder that recent years have seen the birth of the “slow journalism” movement, which was first coined in 2007 by Susan Greenberg.____20____ A. However, that can be dangerous. B. Frequency of the word’s usage rose by 2,000 per cent that year. C. Besides, it required broadcasters to use “received pronunciation”. D. The creation of the World Wide Web in the 1990s changed things again. E. So, the mark of a good story was how soon it was told after it happened. F. It invites us to slow down and pay attention to what’s happening around us. G. People still mainly rely on newspapers for local information. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 An interactive novel is a text with which the reader can interact.

Though he had planned on retiring at sixty, he was still working hard. For him, raising four children—especially now that my mother had stopped working and was at home full time—meant he couldn’t afford to retire. It also meant he failed to achieve anything he promised my mom. “Sweetheart,” he’d say, “I’m going to take you on a cruise (乘船游览).” He still told her that, and only these days he added, “as soon as the kids are out of college.” I knew that putting all of us kids through college probably meant it was going to be a while before my father achieved his dream of going away with my mother on a cruise—though it didn’t stop him from cutting out ads about cruise vacations! It was cute, but it was kind of sad, too. I remember my grandmother always wanted to go to Nova Scotia. My grandfather would always say, “We’ll go next year, sweetheart.” Then she died. My grandmother never got to see Nova Scotia. I just didn’t want my parents to wait until it was too late. I decided to save up my money to send my parents on a cruise even if it was a short three-day cruise. My friends said to me, “Get real! Saving up for a cruise is something you will never be able to do.” But I didn’t believe that. It was not like I could send them around the world or anything, but I didn’t think my putting together the money for a short trip was an impossible goal. I was determined that just as my parents had made my dreams come true for all these years from my first bicycle to my first soccer camp—I was going to do all I could to make their dream of going on a cruise come true. 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。 I started doing odd jobs (零工) and yard work around the neighborhood ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One year later, I finally saved up enough money! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1~5 CAABC 6~10 BBCAC 11～15 BACAA 16～20 BACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★启用前 辽宁省名校联盟2024年高三9月份联合考试 英语 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项: 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上. 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。属于“人与社会”主题语境。文章介绍了一份兼职工作的岗位职责，就职条件等信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Duties部分的信息“assist customers with their shopping process(协助客户进行购物)”可知，兼职商店店员的其中一个职责是：协助顾客购物。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Physical Demands部分“Ability to deal with goods from store receiving to shelving(处理从仓库接收货物到上架的能力)Ability to place products, weighing up to 45 pounds ( about 20 kilograms), on shelves at various heights(能够将重达45磅（约20公斤）的产品放置在不同高度的货架上。)”可知，店员需要收货、上架、放置重达20公斤的重物等，所以应聘店员的人要力气大。根据Qualifications部分“Ability to safely and properly operate equipment, including electric/manual hand jacks (千斤顶), and cardboard balers(打包机)( 能够安全和正确地操作设备，包括电动/手动千斤顶和纸板打包机)”要求店员操作千斤顶、打包机可知应聘店员的人要身体灵活。综上，应聘者要力气大且身体灵活。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Salary部分“$ 15-$ 18 per hour (fewer than 30 hours per week but not less than 10 hours per week)( 每小时15-18美元（每周工作少于30小时，但不少于10小时）)”和“Extra pay types: Bonus pay (depending on your sales but not less than $ 30 per week)( 额外工资类型：奖金（根据您的销售情况，但每周不少于 $30）)”可知，一周最少工作10小时，每小时的最低工资标准是15美元，每周的奖金不少于30美金。故一个兼职店员每周最少可赚得180美元。故选A项。 B I used to hate old books. When I say “old books”, I don’t mean classics, though. I mean books with yellow pages, broken spines (书脊) and odd wood-like smells that you need to be careful not to break because they are already so worn down and bring you severe discomfort. One can assume that I didn’t own many old books. I had merely a few here and there that my parents had gifted me, but nothing too special. In the fourth grade I was ready to explore a new world of reading, one that went beyond the likes of children’s chapter books and teenagers’ topics. Just then, I found my parents’ old copies of the entire Harry Potter book series. Visually, my parents’ books were my worst nightmare. I remember thinking to myself that there was no way I would be able to read these books. However, I eventually had to come to terms with the fact that if I wanted to read the series, I would have to read my parents’ copies. And so began the terrible journey of reading seven old books. When it was time for me to read the final copy, I was kind of a changed woman. I still strongly disliked old books, but the plot of the entire Harry Potter series had attracted me so much I had almost entirely forgotten what the books looked like. By the end, I had devoted the entire Harry Potter bookshelf in my room. Now, I love old books. While the covers are sometimes so worn down that you can barely read the title of the book, you can understand what it’s about anyway. After all, an old book is a representation of generations of readers who have chosen to live in a specific fictional world because the story it contains is just that good. Old books have meaning and I love how much they mean to me now. 4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs? A. She felt uneasy about owning old books. B. She was on bad terms with her parents. C. She grew fondness for reading classics. D. She was often gifted old books by her parents. 5. How did the author feel when seeing her parents’ Harry Potter series in the fourth grade? A. Confused B. Scared C. Discouraged. D. Astonished. 6. What does the author mean by saying “I was kind of a changed woman” in paragraph 3? A. She started to enjoy reading fictional books. B. She began to ignore the appearance of the books. C. She accepted putting old books on her shelf. D. She figured out what she truly wanted to read. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. My Passion for Reading B. My Connection With Parents via Old Books C. My Encounter With the Harry Potter Series D. My Journey With Old Books 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者对旧书的感情从讨厌到喜欢的转变。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I used to hate old books. When I say “old books”, I don’t mean classics, though. I mean books with yellow pages, broken spines and odd wood-like smells that you need to be careful not to break because they are already so worn down and bring you severe discomfort.(我过去讨厌旧书。不过，我说的“旧书”并不是指经典作品。我指的是那些有黄页、断了书脊、散发着木头味的书，你必须小心不要把它们弄破，因为它们已经磨损得很厉害了，会给你带来严重的不适)”可知，对作者来说，拥有旧书是一件令人不舒服，不自在的事。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In the fourth grade, I was ready to explore a new world of reading, one that went beyond the likes of children’s chapter books and teenagers’ topics.(在四年级的时候，我已经准备好去探索一个新的阅读世界，一个超越儿童章节书和青少年主题的世界)”以及“Visually, my parents’ books were my worst nightmare. I remember thinking to myself that there was no way I would be able to read these books.(从视觉上看，父母的书是我最可怕的噩梦。我记得我当时对自己说，我是不可能读懂这些书的)”可推知，作者在看到这套书的破旧样子后感到很沮丧。故选C项。 【6题详解】 句意猜测题。根据第三段“I still strongly disliked old books, but the plot of the entire Harry Potter series had attracted me so much I had almost entirely forgotten what the books looked like. By the end, I had devoted the entire Harry Potter bookshelf in my room.(我仍然非常不喜欢旧书，但是整个哈利波特系列的情节吸引了我，我几乎完全忘记了这些书的样子。最后，我把房间里的整个哈利·波特书架都放满了)”可知，作者之所以说自己有点变了是因为她开始更多地关注书的内容而忽略书的品相了。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“I used to hate old books.(我过去讨厌旧书)”以及最后一段“Now, I love old books.(现在，我喜欢旧书)”可知，本文主要讲述作者对旧书的感情变化。她一开始讨厌旧书，但是在看了父母给她的《哈利·波特》系列的旧书后，就开始更多地关注书的内容而不是书的品相，这次经历改变了她对旧书的感情。D项“我的旧书之旅”作标题最能概括全文主旨。故选D项。 C Humans make decisions using statistical information every day. For example, we weigh the likelihood of various factors when deciding what to bet in card games. However, humans aren’t alone in using statistical inferences in decision-making. Until now, human cousins like monkeys and also some birds have been identified as the only animals to show evidence of reasoning based on probability and statistics, which requires advanced mental power. These animals have large brains relative to their body size, which is often associated with high intelligence. Researchers from the University of Barcelona oppugned such statements and suspected that an animal with a small brain relative to its body size could perform statistical reasoning as well. Giraffes were an ideal choice. But researchers had a concern: When we choose a checkout line at a grocery store, we typically just count the number of people in each line, not weighing the probability. Statistical reasoning is quite distinct from basic counting. Giraffes have already exhibited an ability to perform quantity discrimination, being able to tell a larger number of items from a smaller number, which poses a challenge for the researchers to confirm their suspicion. So the research team settled on a special approach where they started with a mixture of carrots the animal desires along with zucchinis (密生西葫芦) they dislike and varied the number and proportion (比例) of both items. The researchers placed different proportions of carrots and zucchinis into two plastic containers to test whether the giraffes could predict a higher likelihood of receiving a carrot. Each test consisted of 20 trials in which a researcher selected a piece of food from each container without showing it to the giraffes. The giraffes then touched the hand they wanted to eat from, using only the information they had from the containers. In the first test, where one container had 20 carrots and 80 zucchinis and another had go carrots and 20 zucchinis, each giraffe chose the hand that had a higher probability of holding a carrot at least 17 times. In the following two tests, the proportion of carrots and zucchinis was changed. Yet again the giraffes chose correctly. The combined results indicated that the researchers’ idea held water. 8. What can be inferred in paragraph 2? A. Statistical reasoning is unique to humans. B. Animals with larger bodies have larger brains. C. Large animals are smart enough to perform reasoning. D. Brain size is positively related to intelligence. 9. What does the underlined word “oppugned” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Declared. B. Questioned. C. Explained. D. Applauded. 10. Why did the research team introduce a special approach to the study? A. To test the giraffes’ ability to perform basic counting. B. To determine whether giraffes prefer carrots or zucchinis. C. To rule out the effect of giraffes’ quantity discrimination. D. To observe the giraffes’ behavior in different situations. 11. What do the test results show? A. Giraffes are capable of statistical reasoning. B. Giraffes’ sense of proportion is relatively limited. C. Giraffes rely on visual information to make food choices. D. Giraffes’ food preferences can be changed through training. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。通过以长颈鹿为实验对象的三次对比，文章说明了相对于体形而言，大脑相对较小的动物也能具备统计推理的能力。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Until now, human cousins like monkeys and also some birds have been identified as the only animals to show evidence of reasoning based on probability and statistics, which requires advanced mental power. These animals have large brains relative to their body size, which is often associated with high intelligence. (到目前为止，像猴子和一些鸟类这样的人类表亲被确定为唯一能够根据概率和统计数据进行推理的动物，这需要高级的智力。这些动物的大脑相对于它们的体型来说很大，这通常与高智商有关。) ”可知，第二段说明统计推理需要高级的心智，迄今为止，科学家们认为动物界只有人类近亲和一些鸟类具备这一能力，因为它们有着相对较大的大脑，而脑容量和智力呈正相关。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Researchers from the University of Barcelona  oppugned  such statements and suspected that an animal with a small brain relative to its body size could perform statistical reasoning as well. (巴塞罗那大学的研究人员对这种说法表示 oppugned，并怀疑相对于体型来说大脑较小的动物也能进行统计推理。) ”可知，研究人员对已有的论断持质疑的态度，故划线词的词义为“质疑”。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Statistical reasoning is quite distinct from basic counting. Giraffes have already exhibited an ability to perform quantity discrimination, being able to tell a larger number of items from a smaller number, which poses a challenge for the researchers to confirm their suspicion. (统计推理与基本计数截然不同。长颈鹿已经表现出进行数量辨别的能力，能够区分更多数量的物品和更少数量的物品，这给研究人员证实他们的怀疑带来了挑战。) ”可知，研究人员指出统计推理与基本的计数是截然不同的，所以为了排除长颈鹿基于数量区分做出选择这一可能性，他们引入了一个特别的方法。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第七段中的“Yet again the giraffes chose correctly. (长颈鹿再次做出了正确的选择。) ”以及最后一段“The combined results indicated that the researchers’ idea held water. (综合结果表明，研究人员的想法是成立的。) ”可知，长颈鹿具有统计推理的能力。故选A项。 D Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains. The reasoning goes that each of us has a “level” of empathy and—like our adult height—we’re stuck there for life. This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try. Thankfully, this view is incomplete. Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows. No emotion is always useful, and that goes for empathy as well. This is especially true for nurses, doctors and other caregivers. These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to help others. Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care. However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering. Some psychologists, including myself, are now exploring how people in these professions might empathize in more sustainable ways. For example, empathetic concern-—feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart. In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it. For instance, people who were encouraged to have a “growth mindset” around empathy, as compared to a fixed mindset, spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the political divide. 12. What view do many philosophers and psychologists have about empathy? A It grows when practiced often. B. It is a result of individual experiences. C. It is inborn and difficult to develop. D. It varies depending on one’s upbringing. 13. What does the author suggest doctors do? A. Develop their emotional empathy. B. Try to erase their patients’ concern. C. Care for their patients as much as possible. D. Work on improving their empathetic concern. 14. Based on Carol Dweek’s studies in which situation are people willingly empathetic? A. If they believe that empathy is flexible. B. If they are given enough attention. C. If they listen to the identical political views. D. If they suffer racial discrimination. 15. In which unit of a textbook does the text most likely appear? A. Understanding yourself more. B. Feeling for others. C. Exploring genes and emotions. D. Repairing broken relationships. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲的是与他人共情是一种十分重要的促进人际关系的能力。然而，长久以来，共情能力被认为是天生的，由基因决定，一成不变。作为一名心理学家，作者认为，共情能力可以在后天通过多种方式进行培养。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains.(许多哲学家和心理学家认为，同理心是一种自然特征，根植于我们的基因和大脑中。)”和“This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try.(如果你已经有同理心，这一切都很好，但也意味着如果你在同理心方面挣扎，无论你多么努力，你都永远不会提高。)”可知，许多哲学家和心理学家对移情的看法是这是天生的，很难培养。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering.(然而，当医疗保健专业人员过于关心时，他们很有可能因过度同情他人的痛苦而感到倦怠、疲倦和抑郁。)”可知，护士、医生和其他医护人员极有可能因为过度共情他人的痛苦而面临倦怠、疲劳和抑郁的风险。再根据第四段中的“For example, empathetic concern-feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart.(例如，移情关怀——对某人的感觉——与情感移情——像别人一样的感觉是有距离的。例如，如果他们能培养出关心，他们就能在不崩溃的情况下关心他人。)”可知，作者建议医护人员努力提高他们的同理心。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it.(在与斯坦福大学心理学教授Carol Dweek进行的另一组研究中，我们发现，仅仅相信同理心是一种可以培养的技能，就能激励人们更加努力地去做这件事。)”可知，如果他们相信同理心是灵活的，人们就会心甘情愿地移情。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows.(通过正确的做法，比如不同的友谊，甚至小说阅读，我们可以有意地培养我们的同理心。同理心就像一块肌肉：如果不使用，它会变弱；投入工作，它就会成长。)”可知，文章就同理心展开讨论，同理心是一种对他人的情感产生共鸣或表现出共情和同理心的能力，因此本文最可能出现在教科书的对他人的感觉这个单元，故选B。 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。 A Century of Change The last 100 years have seen major transformations in news reporting. Print newspapers dominated the early 1900s, but in November 1922, the dawn (曙光) of radio news arrived when the BBC launched its first daily radio service. It marketed itself as news by and for social elites (精英).____16____In the 1950s, news shifted to television broadcasting. A dramatic change came in 1980 with the creation of America’s Cable News Network (CNN)—the world’s first 24-hour television news network. ____17____The Internet has become a key site for sharing information, and news is more accessible than it has ever been before. Crises can be reported from on the ground by people who closely understand them. Stories can be shared with the click of a button.____18____In the time it takes for a story to move from a news site to Facebook to your WhatsApp group chat, context is lost and facts go unchecked. In 2016, we witnessed an important moment for the news landscape. Following a US election dogged by dishonesty and misinformation spread largely on social media, Oxford Dictionaries announced “post-truth” as its international word of the year.____19____ With so much information at our fingertips, the considerable volume of news can be irresistible. Besides, there is increasing uncertainty about what is true and what is not. So it is no wonder that recent years have seen the birth of the “slow journalism” movement, which was first coined in 2007 by Susan Greenberg.____20____ A. However, that can be dangerous. B. Frequency of the word’s usage rose by 2,000 per cent that year. C. Besides, it required broadcasters to use “received pronunciation”. D. The creation of the World Wide Web in the 1990s changed things again. E. So, the mark of a good story was how soon it was told after it happened. F. It invites us to slow down and pay attention to what’s happening around us. G. People still mainly rely on newspapers for local information. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. A 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲的是新闻报道的方式从过去到现在的一百多年中发生的巨大的变化。 【16题详解】 空前“Print newspapers dominated the early 1900s, but in November 1922, the dawn (曙光) of radio news arrived when the BBC launched its first daily radio service. It marketed itself as news by and for social elites (精英).(印刷报纸在20世纪初占据主导地位，但在1922年11月，BBC推出了第一个每日广播服务，广播新闻的曙光到来了。它将自己定位为社会精英的新闻。)”说明广播新闻的曙光到来了，空格处应该指出广播新闻的特点，C选项“Besides, it required broadcasters to use “received pronunciation”.(此外，它还要求广播公司使用“标准发音”。)”说明了广播新闻要求“标准发音”，是广播新闻的特点，因此承接上文，符合语境。故选C。 【17题详解】 上一段最后一句“A dramatic change came in 1980 with the creation of America’s Cable News Network (CNN)—the world’s first 24-hour television news network.(1980年，世界上第一个24小时电视新闻网络——美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)的创立带来了戏剧性的变化。)”提到，随着CNN的出现，新闻业在1980年发生了巨大的变化；由空后“The Internet has become a key site for sharing information, and news is more accessible than it has ever been before.(互联网已经成为分享信息的重要网站，新闻比以往任何时候都更容易获得。)”可知，本段主要讲述了互联网给新闻报道带来的影响。D项“The creation of the World Wide Web in the 1990s changed things again.(20世纪90年代万维网的诞生再次改变了一切。)”中的changed things again承接上一段最后一句中的A dratmatic change，其中的the World Wide web与该空后的The Internet呼应，且引出了互联网带来改变，因此承上启下，符合语境。故选D。 【18题详解】 根据该空前的“Stories can be shared with the click of a button.(点击一个按钮就可以分享故事。)”和该空后的“In the time it takes for a story to move from a news site to Facebook to your WhatsApp group chat, context is lost and facts go unchecked.(在新闻从新闻网站传到Facebook再传到WhatsApp群聊的过程中，背景丢失了，事实也没有得到核实。)”可知，互联网提高新闻时效性的同时，也有可能使内容失真，这种情况就会很危险，A选项“However, that can be dangerous.(然而，这可能是危险的。)”承上启下，说明了事实得不到核实是危险的，因此A选项承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 【19题详解】 由空前“Following a US election dogged by dishonesty and misinformation spread largely on social media, Oxford Dictionaries announced “post-truth” as its international word of the year.(美国大选充斥着主要在社交媒体上传播的不诚实和错误信息，牛津词典宣布“后真相”为其年度国际词汇。)”可知，本段主要讲述了牛津词典在2016年发布的年度国际词汇post-truth，B项“Frequency of the word’s usage rose by 2,000 per cent that year.(那一年，这个词的使用频率上升了2000%。)”中的the word与设空处前面的post-truth相呼应，说明了这个词使用的频率上升很多，因此B选项承接上文，符合语境，故选B。 【20题详解】 由空前“So it is no wonder that recent years have seen the birth of the “slow journalism” movement, which was first coined in 2007 by Susan Greenberg.(因此，难怪近年来出现了由Susan Greenberg于2007年首次提出的“慢新闻”运动。)”可知，本段主要讲述了“慢新闻”运动这一理念的诞生，空格处应该说这种运动的特征，F项“It invites us to slow down and pay attention to what’s happening around us.(它邀请我们放慢脚步，关注我们周围发生的事情。)”中的slow down与该空前的slow为词汇复现，it指代前句中的“slow journalism”movement，说明了“慢新闻”运动的特点，因此承接上文，符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 An interactive novel is a text with which the reader can interact.

Similarly 43. appreciation 44. while##although##though 45. harmonious 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中西方节日之间的差异和共同点。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：中国的节日通常以家庭团聚和尊敬祖先为中心，与之相比，西方的节日往往强调庆祝，反映了一种更个人主义的文化。句中谓语是tend，空格处用非谓语动词，western festivals和compare之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填Compared。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：中国的节日通常以家庭团聚和尊敬祖先为中心，与之相比，西方的节日往往强调庆祝，反映了一种更个人主义的文化。句中谓语是tend，空格处用非谓语动词，western festivals和reflect之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填reflecting。 【38题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：它的核心是耶稣基督诞生的故事，象征着爱、希望和重生。句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，句子是倒装句，主语the story of Jesus Christ’s birth是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数，故填lies。 【39题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这是数百万人回家与家人团聚的时候，他们会从事一些传统活动，比如打扫房屋、做特别的菜肴、放烟花。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词time是时间，因此空格处用关系副词when引导定语从句，在从句中作时间状语，故填when。 【40题详解】 考查固定短语，时态和主谓一致。句意：这个节日对家庭关系和连续性的强调植根于儒家价值观，反映了中国社会的集体主义本质。be rooted in是固定短语，意为“植根于”，句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语The festival’s emphasis on family ties and continuity是抽象名词，单数意义，be动词用is，因此空格处是is rooted。故填is rooted。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：然而，尽管存在这些明显的差异，两种文化都有一些共同点：他们的节日都是为了庆祝生命和追求幸福。in celebration of是固定短语，意为“为了庆祝”，因此空格处用介词of，故填of。 【42题详解】 考查副词。句意：同样，像中秋节这样的中国节日促进了家庭团聚和对自然美景的欣赏。空格处用副词作状语，修饰整个主句，similar的副词是similarly，意为“同样”，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填Similarly。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：同样，像中秋节这样的中国节日促进了家庭团聚和对自然美景的欣赏。空格处用名词作宾语，appreciate的名词是appreciation，意为“欣赏”，是不可数名词，故填appreciation。 【44题详解】 考查让步状语从句。句意：总之，尽管中国和西方的节日在许多方面不同，但它们都是文化、价值观和人类精神的有力表达。根据语境可知，句子表示“尽管中国和西方的节日在许多方面不同，但它们都是文化、价值观和人类精神的有力表达”，空格处意为“尽管”，是while/although/though，引导让步状语从句，故填while/although/though。 【45题详解】 考查形容词。句意：通过这些庆祝活动，我们可以更深入地了解彼此的传统，形成相互尊重，从而建立和谐的关系和真正的全球社区。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词relationships，harmony的形容词是harmonious，意为“和谐的”。故填harmonious。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是校学生会负责人李华，你校近期计划而向外国人开展China in My Eyes短视频征集活动。请你给已在中国定居多年的外教Chris 写一封邮件，邀请他录制一段短视频。内容包括： 1.写信目的； 2.视频内容与要求。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Chris, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best regards, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Chris， I am writing to invite you to participate in a short video shooting activity with the theme of “China in My Eyes”.

(运用了动词不定式作目的状语) 第二节(满分25分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My father was sixty-five. Though he had planned on retiring at sixty, he was still working hard. For him, raising four children—especially now that my mother had stopped working and was at home full time—meant he couldn’t afford to retire. It also meant he failed to achieve anything he promised my mom. “Sweetheart,” he’d say, “I’m going to take you on a cruise (乘船游览).” He still told her that, and only these days he added, “as soon as the kids are out of college.” I knew that putting all of us kids through college probably meant it was going to be a while before my father achieved his dream of going away with my mother on a cruise—though it didn’t stop him from cutting out ads about cruise vacations! It was cute, but it was kind of sad, too. I remember my grandmother always wanted to go to Nova Scotia. My grandfather would always say, “We’ll go next year, sweetheart.” Then she died. My grandmother never got to see Nova Scotia. I just didn’t want my parents to wait until it was too late. I decided to save up my money to send my parents on a cruise even if it was a short three-day cruise. My friends said to me, “Get real! Saving up for a cruise is something you will never be able to do.” But I didn’t believe that. It was not like I could send them around the world or anything, but I didn’t think my putting together the money for a short trip was an impossible goal. I was determined that just as my parents had made my dreams come true for all these years from my first bicycle to my first soccer camp—I was going to do all I could to make their dream of going on a cruise come true. 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。 I started doing odd jobs (零工) and yard work around the neighborhood. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One year later, I finally saved up enough money! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文一 I started doing odd jobs (零工) and yard work around the neighborhood. I weeded the garden, washed cars, and even babysat for families in the area to earn some extra money. It was hard work, but I knew it would all be worth it in the end. Every penny I earned went into a secret savings account that I had set up specifically for my parents’ cruise fund. I resisted the temptation (诱惑) to spend the money on other things and stayed focused on my goal. One year later, I finally saved up enough money! I couldn’t believe it when I checked my savings account balance and saw the total. I was thrilled. The first thing I did was contact the cruise company and book a three-day cruise for my parents. They spent three days exploring new places, relaxing and enjoying each other’s company without any worries. It was a much-needed break from their busy lives, and I was grateful to have played a part in making it happen. 范文二 I started doing odd jobs (零工)and yard work around the neighborhood. I took on more jobs and put in extra hours whenever I could. It wasn’t always easy, and there were times when I felt exhausted and discouraged, but the thought of my parents finally going on that long-awaited cruise kept me going. It wasn’t just about a cruise; it was about showing my parents how much they meant to me. I knew that every dollar I earned was a step closer to making their dream a reality. One year later, I finally saved up enough money! It was an incredible feeling of accomplishment and excitement. I couldn’t wait to surprise my parents. So I rushed to give them an envelope containing the cruise tickets. Their eyes widened with surprise and disbelief as they saw the tickets. Tears of joy filled their eyes, and they gave me a bear hug, thanking me over and over again. At that moment, I knew that all the hard work and sacrifices were worth it. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公是一个懂事且有决心的孩子，他生长在一个有四个孩子的家庭，父亲一直为了家庭辛勤工作而未能实现对母亲乘坐游轮的承诺。主人公通过回忆祖母因等待而遗憾未能去Nova Scotia的经历，深刻意识到时间的无情，不愿让父母也留下遗憾。他下定决心要存钱让父母乘坐游轮，尽管朋友们认为这是个不切实际的目标。然而，主人公坚信自己能够为父母实现这个梦想，就像父母曾经支持他实现梦想一样。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我开始在附近打零工，在院子里干活。”可知，第一段可描写作者努力赚钱，存钱的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“一年后，我终于攒够了钱!”可知，第二段可描写作者存够了钱，为父母买了游轮的票，完成了父母乘坐游轮的心愿。 2. 续写线索：开始打零工——存钱——专注目标——存够钱——实现父母的愿望——高兴。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①抵制：resist/oppose ②关注：focus on/concentrate on ③联系：contact/connect 情绪类 ①激动的：thrilled/excited ②感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】[高分句型1]Every penny I earned went into a secret savings account that I had set up specifically for my parents’ cruise fund.(that引导的定语从句) [高分句型2]I couldn’t believe it when I checked my savings account balance and saw the total.(when引导的时间状语从句) 听力1~5 CAABC 6~10 BBCAC 11～15 BACAA 16～20 BACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
