The Anxious Eye: German Expressionism and Its Legacy NOW ON VIEW February 11 — May 27,2024 West Building, Ground Floor, West Outer Tier The Anxious Eye: German Expressionism and Its Legacy presents insights into the work of these innovative, early 20th-century artists and their continuing impact a century later. The exhibition features recent acquisitions as well as works that have rarely, if ever, been on view, including gifts donated by celebrated Washington DC, collectors Jacob and Ruth Cole Kainen. In the Library: Latin American Architecture in Circulation NOW ON VIEW January 8 — April 26, 2024 East Building, Ground Level-Library Atrium Nearly 40 prints, rare books, postcards, maps, and photographs exhibited here, from the National Gallery of Art Library, document the buildings that resulted from this exchange. These works point to the way that people used buildings to define Latin America as a cultural and political space in the centuries between European colonization and the independence movements of the 19th century. Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction NOW ON VIEW March 17 — July 28, 2024 East Building, Concourse Galleries In the 20th century, textiles (纺织品) have often been considered less as applied art, women’s work, or domestic craft. Woven Histories challenges the hierarchies (等级制度) that often separate textiles from fine arts. Putting into dialogue some 160 works by more than 50 creators from across generations and continents, the exhibition explores the contributions of weaving and related techniques to abstraction, modernism’s outstanding art form. Paris 1874: The Impressionist Moment UPCOMING EXHIBITION October 8, 2024 — January 19, 2025 West Building, Main Floor How did Impressionism begin? Discover the origins of the French art movement in a new look at the basic 1874 exhibition considered the birth of modern painting. Don’t miss the unique chance to immerse yourself in the dynamic Parisian art scene. 1. What do we know about German Expressionism and Its Legacy? A. It is the cradle of modern painting. B. Political shifts inspired famous painters. C. Collections and works rarely on show are included. D. It features insights into the early 20th-century artists. 2. If you’re interested in the buildings concerning history, you will probably pay a visit to ______. A. German Expressionism and Its Legacy B. The Impressionist Moment C. Latin American Architecture in Circulation D. Textiles and Modern Abstraction 3. In what way is the Impressionist Moment different from the other three? A. It is still not open to the public. B. It included gifts donated by Jacob. C. It has been considered less as applied art. D. It has a larger collection of paintings and arts. B For people who never complain about the cold, can take or leave showers and would get used to noises, ideal jobs have come up. A heritage charity is advertising vacancies at the bottom of the world. Based in Antarctica, successful applicants will have to adapt to near-constant daylight, subzero temperatures and no flushing toilet or running water. But what incredible upsides: penguins and breathtaking landscapes in the polar area. The UK Antarctic heritage Trust said it was seeking“ passionate adventurers ready to take on the challenge of a lifetime” in jobs that included managing a museum, post office and gift shop as well as conducting penguin counts. Those selected will live and work at Base A at Port Lockroy on Goudier Island. Bridie Martin-West, a 33-year-old midwife, is the current base leader. She said. “We get the wonder of seeing humpback and minke whales go past. On one side of the island we have the most majestic mountain range and on the other side we’ve got a glacier with icebergs. It is really raw nature and stunningly beautiful.” The team arrived on the island at the same time as gentoo penguins for their breeding season. The penguins are known for their loud, head-back trumpet call, but Martin-West said, “Having come from living in London it is still much quieter here…” A typical evening might be watching films, playing board games or carrying on an Antarctic tradition of people giving presentations on subjects they know something about. Applications were opened yesterday to UK residents, with training beginning in August. There will be interviews and selection events before then. Martin-West recalled being asked to put up tents blindfold while wearing oven gloves. She said, “The training was like a cross between boot camp and a reality TV show. It is very full on. It is a lot of work, some of which is quite physical.” 4. What is the meaning of the underlined word “upsides”? A. Changes. B. Advantages. C. Opportunities. D. Challenges. 5. What can you learn from Paragraph 4? A. Martin-West preferred to stay in London. B. London is a noisy place compared to the island. C. Martin-West struggled to get used to life at Base A. D. The noise in Antarctica is unbearable for Martin-West. 6. Which word best describes the job mentioned in the text? A. Respectable. B. Profitable. C. Effortless. D. Demanding. 7. What does the text mainly tell us? A. Adventurers are called on to enjoy endless fun. B. Antarctic jobs concerning penguins are easy. C. Unique Antarctic Jobs with highlights are waiting for adventurers. D. The chance has come for people to explore the cold and wild world. C The launch of a tool to record a vanishing Greek dialect drew attention back this week to one of the great extinctions of the modern world: nine languages are believed to be disappearing every year. Romeyka, which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, separated from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. For linguists, it is a“ living bridge” to the ancient Greek world, the loss of which would clearly be a blow. But some languages are in even bigger trouble, with 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in distinct colours, with a language stripes chart, devised to illustrate the accelerating decline in each decade between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them. The history of languages has always been linked to colonialism (殖民主义) and political persecution (迫害), which scatter populations as well as controlling them. The Endangered Languages Alliance (ELA) has tracked down and mapped hundreds of dying languages in New York, which is an unexpected discovery. These dialects are supposed to be found in remote rural areas. Among ELA’s more shocking discoveries is that, of 700 surviving speakers of Seke, which originated in a cluster of mountain villages in Nepal, more than 150 can be traced to two apartment buildings in Brooklyn district of New York. From Sami reindeer herders across the Arctic to Australia’s Indigenous (土著的) peoples, the ways in which people express themselves hide secret messages about ancient ways of living in nature. Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive. By simply honouring their existence, linguists play an important role. Ken Hale, an activist who is strongly for preserving endangered languages famously argued that losing any language was “like dropping a bomb on the Louvre”. 8. What does “Romeyka” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. An extinct ancient Greek language. B. A language with very few written words. C. A disappearing dialect related to ancient Greek. D. A popular dialect loved by the young generation. 9. Why are the numbers used in Paragraph 2? A. To show the importance of the dialects. B. To conclude the diversity of the dialects. C. To explain different ways to protect dialects. D. To illustrate the tendency of fast dying dialects. 10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. Seke is a place in the mountains of Nepal. B. People assume fewer dialects exist in big cities. C. Nepal and New York were twin cities many years ago. D. ELA is not surprised to trace an original Nepal dialect to Brooklyn. 11. What does Ken Hale’s quote mean? A. The extinction of a dialect is a great loss. B. Bombing Louver is a disaster to any language. C. Ancient ways of living are kept secret in Louvre. D. Languages are to survive simply by honoring them. D Have you ever worried that you might smell bad? Well, you do have a smell, but not in the way you think. The human body releases hundreds of chemical compounds into the air every day, and these compounds reveal much more than just our health habits; they can also indicate our health situations. In 1971, chemist Linus Pauling identified 250 different gaseous chemicals in our breath, known as VOCs. These VOCs originate from the body’s metabolic (新陈代谢) processes and are excreted (排泄) through skin glands. While sweat contributes to these VOCs, it only accounts for a small portion of them. VOCs can reveal a lot about our health. For example, a sweet-smelling breath could be a sign of diabetes. Besides breath, VOCs are also released from our skin, and feces (粪便). A notable case involved Joy Milne, who noticed a change in her husband’s scent 12 years before he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Known as “the woman who can smell Parkinson’s,” Joy has been using her keen sense of smell to help scientists develop a simple swab test to diagnose the illnesses. Animals with advanced sense of smell, like dogs, have demonstrated they can detect various types of cancer in humans. Although these scents are often undetectable to the human nose, they provide evidence that our bodies emit different scents when something is wrong. The relationship between VOCs, and our health is still being studied. Studies have already shown that they can predict a person’s age within a few years based on their skin VOC profile. In one interview, Professor Morin stated, “We are at a relatively early stage in this research area, but we have already distinguished males from females based on the acidity of skin VOCs. We believe skin VOCs can reveal aspects of who we are, such as nutrition, health and stress. These signatures likely contain markers that can be used to diagnose disease.” So, who knows—maybe one day we will be able to detect diseases simply by breathing into a device. 12. What do we learn about the VOCs according to the text? A. The VOCs are primarily composed of sweat. B. Skin VOCs reveal more about our health habits. C. Our body’s metabolic processes are the source of VOCs. D. VOCs only released from our skin indicate health status. 13. Why does the author mention animals in paragraph 4? A. To argue we should rely more on animals. B. To show the superior intelligence of animals. C. To highlight VOCs’ potential as diagnostic markers. D. To illustrate VOCs have the capability to cure cancers. 14. What future technology might arise from the understanding of VOCs? A. Devices that can breathe out disease-causing VOCs. B. Equipment that can analyze VOCs to diagnose diseases. C. Personalized perfumes that can mask disease-related VOCs. D. Advanced facilities that can use VOCs to cure diseases. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the passage? A. The Role of Sweat in Human Health B. Linus Pauling’s Contributions to VOCS C. Smell of Body Contributing to Diseases D. Detecting Diseases through Body Scents 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。 Studies have shown that physical activity can improve mental alertness and cognitive function. Your brain works better and you can think more clearly after exercising. ____16____ If you are looking for a way to boost your studying, try incorporating daily exercise into your routine. Try light exercise while you study. A few studies have shown that performing light exercise while studying can help recall of information. These studies found that vigorous exercise while studying may hurt recall because your brain is focused on the workout instead of the information. ____17____ You can use the stationary bike while you study for at least half an hour, making sure to keep the intensity light. Exercise at your desk. You can get your blood pumping at your desk while you study. If you don’t want to leave everything and go for a quick 15-minute stroll, try getting some physical activity in where you are. Do some chair squats at your desk. ____18____ Hover just above the chair for about 10 seconds. Repeat this 20 times. Take a walk on breaks. If you are studying in the library, break up your study sessions with physical activity. ____19____ You can also do this if you are studying in your dorm or a coffee shop. Taking a break helps refresh yourself and gets blood flowing to the brain, which can help you think and remember better. ____20____ Consistent daily workouts, integrated with your study and class schedule, are more effective than cramming 150 minutes of physical activity into the weekend. Regular physical activity throughout the week enhances brain function when you need it most — during your study sessions — rather than isolating it to the weekend. A. Focus on consistency. B. Make the exercise an enjoyable experience. C. Stand up from your chair, and then squat down without sitting down. D. If you are going to exercise while studying, just make sure to keep it gentle. E. Get up and take a fifteen-minute stroll around the building or around campus nearby. F. Physical activity also helps boost memory and recall, which is important when studying. G. Do low-impact gentle exercises, such as walking or swimming, at least 30 minutes a day. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I moved to London instead of Wellington by accident, or rather, because of an accident.

She anticipated a day filled with peaceful beauty and the opportunity to touch nature in its purest form. Upon arrival, Emily was charmed by the quietness and splendidness of the overgrown pines that towered above, their branches whispering tales of old in the gentle morning breeze. With her camera in hand, she ventured deeper into the heart of the forest, each step further immersing her in the lively picture of greens and earthy browns. The paths of Old Pine were many, weaving through the forest like threads of a vast, tangled (缠结的) web. Initially, Emily followed the marked trails, snapping photos of dew-kissed (带着露珠的) spider webs and squirrels dashing through the underbrush. However, as the morning turned into afternoon, she decided to stray from the beaten path to explore a more hidden area, rumored to house the eldest and most majestic pine in the reserve. The deeper she wandered, the quieter the forest grew, except for the occasional rustle of leaves and distant birds. Focused intently on her photography, Emily scarcely noticed the shifting shadows and the subtle change in the forest. She then realized it was getting late but she had not yet found the eldest pine. And she had not only strayed off the path but was now thoroughly lost. Panic fluttered in her chest. She attempted to backtrack, hoping to find familiar landmarks, but the forest seemed to have rearranged itself behind her. The trees stood pitiless, their trunks like silent guards that offered no guidance. With her phone’s signal frustratingly absent in the thick forest, Emily felt a surge of helplessness. 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。 Emily remembered reading about the importance of staying calm when lost. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nodding eagerly, Emily explained her situation to the local man. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1—5 CABAC 6—10 BBAAC 11—15 AABAB 16—20 CBACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★考试结束前 2024学年第一学期浙江省七彩阳光新高考研究联盟返校联考 高三英语试题 考生须知： 1. 本试题卷共8页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场号、座位号及准考证号。 3. 所有答案必须写在答题卷上，写在试卷上无效。 4. 考试结束后，只需上交答题卷。 第Ⅰ卷 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.

These works point to the way that people used buildings to define Latin America as a cultural and political space in the centuries between European colonization and the independence movements of the 19th century.(近40幅版画、稀有书籍、明信片、地图和照片，均来自国家美术馆图书馆，记录了这次交流所带来的建筑。这些作品展示了人们如何利用建筑在欧洲殖民和19世纪独立运动之间的几个世纪里，将拉丁美洲定义为一个文化和政治空间。)”可知，如果你对建筑和历史感兴趣，你可能会参观Latin American Architecture in Circulation展览。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Paris 1874: The Impressionist Moment部分的“UPCOMING EXHIBITION(即将举行的展览)”和“October 8,2024—January 19,2025 West Building, Main Floor(2024年10月8日至2025年1月19日，西楼，主楼层)”可知，Impressionist Moment是一个即将开始的展览，将在2024年10月8日至2025年1月19日开放。因此，与其他三个已经开放的展览相比，Impressionist Moment还未对公众开放，这是它与其他三个展览的不同之处。故选A。 B For people who never complain about the cold, can take or leave showers and would get used to noises, ideal jobs have come up. A heritage charity is advertising vacancies at the bottom of the world. Based in Antarctica, successful applicants will have to adapt to near-constant daylight, subzero temperatures and no flushing toilet or running water. But what incredible upsides: penguins and breathtaking landscapes in the polar area. The UK Antarctic heritage Trust said it was seeking“ passionate adventurers ready to take on the challenge of a lifetime” in jobs that included managing a museum, post office and gift shop as well as conducting penguin counts. Those selected will live and work at Base A at Port Lockroy on Goudier Island. Bridie Martin-West, a 33-year-old midwife, is the current base leader. She said. “We get the wonder of seeing humpback and minke whales go past. On one side of the island we have the most majestic mountain range and on the other side we’ve got a glacier with icebergs. It is really raw nature and stunningly beautiful.” The team arrived on the island at the same time as gentoo penguins for their breeding season. The penguins are known for their loud, head-back trumpet call, but Martin-West said, “Having come from living in London it is still much quieter here…” A typical evening might be watching films, playing board games or carrying on an Antarctic tradition of people giving presentations on subjects they know something about. Applications were opened yesterday to UK residents, with training beginning in August. There will be interviews and selection events before then. Martin-West recalled being asked to put up tents blindfold while wearing oven gloves. She said, “The training was like a cross between boot camp and a reality TV show. It is very full on. It is a lot of work, some of which is quite physical.” 4. What is the meaning of the underlined word “upsides”? A. Changes. B. Advantages. C. Opportunities. D. Challenges. 5. What can you learn from Paragraph 4? A. Martin-West preferred to stay in London. B. London is a noisy place compared to the island. C. Martin-West struggled to get used to life at Base A. D. The noise in Antarctica is unbearable for Martin-West. 6. Which word best describes the job mentioned in the text? A. Respectable. B. Profitable. C. Effortless. D. Demanding. 7. What does the text mainly tell us? A. Adventurers are called on to enjoy endless fun. B. Antarctic jobs concerning penguins are easy. C. Unique Antarctic Jobs with highlights are waiting for adventurers. D. The chance has come for people to explore the cold and wild world. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了南极独特的、有亮点的工作机会正在等待冒险者。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Based in Antarctica, successful applicants will have to adapt to near-constant daylight, subzero temperatures and no flushing toilet or running water.(成功的申请者将驻扎在南极，他们必须适应近乎持续的日光、零度以下的温度和没有冲水厕所或自来水的环境。)”和but可知，上文提到在南极做志愿者的缺点，转折之后应该是南极的工作有很多不可思议的优点，包括企鹅和极地地区令人叹为观止的风景。upside在这里指的是这些工作的优点或优势，与B项advantages（优点）意思一致。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Having come from living in London it is still much quieter here…(从伦敦来到这里，这里仍然要安静得多……)”可知，Martin-West从伦敦来，但岛上仍然比伦敦安静得多，这暗示了伦敦是一个比岛屿更嘈杂的地方。因此，我们可以从第四段得知伦敦比岛屿更嘈杂。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Applications were opened yesterday to UK residents, with training beginning in August. There will be interviews and selection events before then. Martin-West recalled being asked to put up tents blindfold while wearing oven gloves.( 昨天开始向英国居民开放申请，培训将于8月开始。在此之前将进行面试和选拔活动。Martin-West回忆说，她曾被要求戴着眼罩，戴着烤箱手套搭帐篷。)”可知，申请者需要进行培训和面试，其中包括戴着眼罩穿着烤箱手套搭帐篷等体力活动，说明这份工作对申请者的要求很高，因此最能描述这份工作的词是demanding（要求高的）。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开头就提到“For people who never complain about the cold, can take or leave showers and would get used to noises, ideal jobs have come up(对于那些不怕冷、能洗澡也能适应噪音的人来说，理想的工作机会已经到来。)”，接下来文章介绍了南极的遗产慈善机构正在招聘志愿者，这些工作位于南极，需要适应极端的环境，但也有很多独特的优点，如看到企鹅和壮丽的极地景观。因此，文章主要讲述了南极独特的、有亮点的工作机会正在等待冒险者。因此，C选项：Unique Antarctic Jobs with highlights are waiting for adventurers(独特的南极工作机会正在等待冒险者)是正确答案。故选C。 C The launch of a tool to record a vanishing Greek dialect drew attention back this week to one of the great extinctions of the modern world: nine languages are believed to be disappearing every year. Romeyka, which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, separated from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. For linguists, it is a“ living bridge” to the ancient Greek world, the loss of which would clearly be a blow. But some languages are in even bigger trouble, with 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in distinct colours, with a language stripes chart, devised to illustrate the accelerating decline in each decade between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them. The history of languages has always been linked to colonialism (殖民主义) and political persecution (迫害), which scatter populations as well as controlling them. The Endangered Languages Alliance (ELA) has tracked down and mapped hundreds of dying languages in New York, which is an unexpected discovery. These dialects are supposed to be found in remote rural areas. Among ELA’s more shocking discoveries is that, of 700 surviving speakers of Seke, which originated in a cluster of mountain villages in Nepal, more than 150 can be traced to two apartment buildings in Brooklyn district of New York. From Sami reindeer herders across the Arctic to Australia’s Indigenous (土著的) peoples, the ways in which people express themselves hide secret messages about ancient ways of living in nature. Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive. By simply honouring their existence, linguists play an important role. Ken Hale, an activist who is strongly for preserving endangered languages famously argued that losing any language was “like dropping a bomb on the Louvre”. 8. What does “Romeyka” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. An extinct ancient Greek language. B. A language with very few written words. C. A disappearing dialect related to ancient Greek. D. A popular dialect loved by the young generation. 9. Why are the numbers used in Paragraph 2? A. To show the importance of the dialects. B. To conclude the diversity of the dialects. C. To explain different ways to protect dialects. D. To illustrate the tendency of fast dying dialects. 10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. Seke is a place in the mountains of Nepal. B. People assume fewer dialects exist in big cities. C. Nepal and New York were twin cities many years ago. D. ELA is not surprised to trace an original Nepal dialect to Brooklyn. 11. What does Ken Hale’s quote mean? A. The extinction of a dialect is a great loss. B. Bombing Louver is a disaster to any language. C. Ancient ways of living are kept secret in Louvre. D. Languages are to survive simply by honoring them. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讨论了全球濒危语言的现状及保护它们的重要性。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, separated from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. For linguists, it is a“ living bridge” to the ancient Greek world, the loss of which would clearly be a blow.(是由土耳其黑海沿岸山区村落中几千名老年人口使用的语言，与现代希腊语分离了几千年。它没有书面形式。对于语言学家来说，它是通往古希腊世界的“活桥梁”，失去它显然是一个打击。)”可知，Romeyka是一种与现代希腊语分离了几千年的方言，没有书面形式，对于语言学家来说，它是通往古希腊世界的“活桥梁”，失去它显然是一个打击。因此，Romeyka指的是一种正在消失的与古希腊有关的方言。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But some languages are in even bigger trouble, with 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in distinct colours, with a language stripes chart, devised to illustrate the accelerating decline in each decade between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them.(但是有些语言面临着更大的麻烦，有350种语言的母语使用者不到50人，有46种语言的母语使用者只有1人。澳大利亚和英国机构之间的合作以不同的颜色描绘了这种情况，并设计了一张语言条纹图，以说明从1700年到今天，每个十年间都在加速下降的趋势。该图的作者预测，到2150年，世界上7000种语言中将有50%至90%灭绝。即使现在，地球上也有一半人只使用这24种语言。)”可知，使用数字是为了说明方言快速消亡的趋势。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“These dialects are supposed to be found in remote rural areas. Among ELA’s more shocking discoveries is that, of 700 surviving speakers of Seke, which originated in a cluster of mountain villages in Nepal, more than 150 can be traced to two apartment buildings in Brooklyn district of New York.(这些方言本应出现在偏远的农村地区。ELA更惊人的发现之一是，尼泊尔一群山村中起源的塞克语（Seke）有700名幸存者，其中一半以上的人住在纽约市，他们中的许多人甚至不知道自己是说这种语言的人。)”可知人们认为这些方言应该存在于偏远的农村地区，但令人震惊的是，在纽约布鲁克林区的两栋公寓大楼里，可以找到700名幸存的Seke方言使用者中的150多人。这表明人们认为大城市中方言的数量较少，但实际上并非如此。故选B。 【11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“Ken Hale, an activist who is strongly for preserving endangered languages famously argued that losing any language was “like dropping a bomb on the Louvre”.( 以积极保护濒危语言而闻名的肯·黑尔（Ken Hale）曾激烈地表示，失去任何一种语言“就像是在卢浮宫投下一颗炸弹”。)”可知，Ken Hale的引用“losing any language was ‘like dropping a bomb on the Louvre’”意味着失去任何一种语言都是巨大的损失，就像对卢浮宫投下炸弹一样。因此，A选项“方言的灭绝是巨大的损失”是正确的解释。故选A。 D Have you ever worried that you might smell bad? Well, you do have a smell, but not in the way you think. The human body releases hundreds of chemical compounds into the air every day, and these compounds reveal much more than just our health habits; they can also indicate our health situations. In 1971, chemist Linus Pauling identified 250 different gaseous chemicals in our breath, known as VOCs. These VOCs originate from the body’s metabolic (新陈代谢) processes and are excreted (排泄) through skin glands. While sweat contributes to these VOCs, it only accounts for a small portion of them. VOCs can reveal a lot about our health. For example, a sweet-smelling breath could be a sign of diabetes. Besides breath, VOCs are also released from our skin, and feces (粪便). A notable case involved Joy Milne, who noticed a change in her husband’s scent 12 years before he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Known as “the woman who can smell Parkinson’s,” Joy has been using her keen sense of smell to help scientists develop a simple swab test to diagnose the illnesses. Animals with advanced sense of smell, like dogs, have demonstrated they can detect various types of cancer in humans. Although these scents are often undetectable to the human nose, they provide evidence that our bodies emit different scents when something is wrong. The relationship between VOCs, and our health is still being studied. Studies have already shown that they can predict a person’s age within a few years based on their skin VOC profile. In one interview, Professor Morin stated, “We are at a relatively early stage in this research area, but we have already distinguished males from females based on the acidity of skin VOCs. We believe skin VOCs can reveal aspects of who we are, such as nutrition, health and stress. These signatures likely contain markers that can be used to diagnose disease.” So, who knows—maybe one day we will be able to detect diseases simply by breathing into a device. 12. What do we learn about the VOCs according to the text? A. The VOCs are primarily composed of sweat. B. Skin VOCs reveal more about our health habits. C. Our body’s metabolic processes are the source of VOCs. D. VOCs only released from our skin indicate health status. 13. Why does the author mention animals in paragraph 4? A. To argue we should rely more on animals. B. To show the superior intelligence of animals. C. To highlight VOCs’ potential as diagnostic markers. D. To illustrate VOCs have the capability to cure cancers. 14. What future technology might arise from the understanding of VOCs? A. Devices that can breathe out disease-causing VOCs. B. Equipment that can analyze VOCs to diagnose diseases. C. Personalized perfumes that can mask disease-related VOCs. D. Advanced facilities that can use VOCs to cure diseases. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the passage? A. The Role of Sweat in Human Health B. Linus Pauling’s Contributions to VOCS C. Smell of Body Contributing to Diseases D. Detecting Diseases through Body Scents 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了人体释放的VOCs与健康状况之间的关系，解释了这些化学物质的来源、它如何揭示健康信息，以及科研人员如何利用这些信息探索疾病诊断的可能性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“These VOCs originate from the body’s metabolic (新陈代谢) processes and are excreted (排泄) through skin glands. (这些挥发性有机化合物来源于人体的代谢过程，并通过皮肤腺体排出体外。)”可知，我们身体的代谢过程是这些发挥性有机化合物的来源。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Animals with advanced sense of smell, like dogs, have demonstrated they can detect various types of cancer in humans. Although these scents are often undetectable to the human nose, they provide evidence that our bodies emit different scents when something is wrong. (具有高级嗅觉的动物，如狗，已经证明它们可以检测出人类的各种癌症。虽然这些气味通常是人的鼻子无法察觉的，但它们提供了证据，表明我们的身体在出现问题时会发出不同的气味。)”可知，作者提到像狗这样的动物是为了强调VOCs作为疾病诊断标记的潜力，因为这些动物能够嗅出人类身上的不同疾病，说明VOCs确实携带了与健康相关的信息。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“So, who knows—maybe one day we will be able to detect diseases simply by breathing into a device. (所以，谁知道呢——也许有一天我们可以通过对着一个设备呼吸来检测疾病。)”可知，未来可能产生的技术是能够分析VOCs来诊断疾病的设备。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The human body releases hundreds of chemical compounds into the air every day, and these compounds reveal much more than just our health habits; they can also indicate our health situations. (人体每天向空气中释放数百种化合物，这些化合物揭示的不仅仅是我们的健康习惯；它们也可以表明我们的健康状况。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要围绕着人体释放的VOCs如何反映健康状况，并有可能成为疾病诊断的工具这一主题展开。因此合适的标题为“Detecting Diseases through Body Scents”。故选D。 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。 Studies have shown that physical activity can improve mental alertness and cognitive function. Your brain works better and you can think more clearly after exercising. ____16____ If you are looking for a way to boost your studying, try incorporating daily exercise into your routine. Try light exercise while you study. A few studies have shown that performing light exercise while studying can help recall of information. These studies found that vigorous exercise while studying may hurt recall because your brain is focused on the workout instead of the information. ____17____ You can use the stationary bike while you study for at least half an hour, making sure to keep the intensity light. Exercise at your desk. You can get your blood pumping at your desk while you study. If you don’t want to leave everything and go for a quick 15-minute stroll, try getting some physical activity in where you are. Do some chair squats at your desk. ____18____ Hover just above the chair for about 10 seconds. Repeat this 20 times. Take a walk on breaks. If you are studying in the library, break up your study sessions with physical activity. ____19____ You can also do this if you are studying in your dorm or a coffee shop. Taking a break helps refresh yourself and gets blood flowing to the brain, which can help you think and remember better. ____20____ Consistent daily workouts, integrated with your study and class schedule, are more effective than cramming 150 minutes of physical activity into the weekend. Regular physical activity throughout the week enhances brain function when you need it most — during your study sessions — rather than isolating it to the weekend. A. Focus on consistency. B. Make the exercise an enjoyable experience. C. Stand up from your chair, and then squat down without sitting down. D. If you are going to exercise while studying, just make sure to keep it gentle. E. Get up and take a fifteen-minute stroll around the building or around campus nearby. F. Physical activity also helps boost memory and recall, which is important when studying. G. Do low-impact gentle exercises, such as walking or swimming, at least 30 minutes a day. 【答案】16. F 17. D 18. C 19. E 20.

She anticipated a day filled with peaceful beauty and the opportunity to touch nature in its purest form. Upon arrival, Emily was charmed by the quietness and splendidness of the overgrown pines that towered above, their branches whispering tales of old in the gentle morning breeze. With her camera in hand, she ventured deeper into the heart of the forest, each step further immersing her in the lively picture of greens and earthy browns. The paths of Old Pine were many, weaving through the forest like threads of a vast, tangled (缠结的) web. Initially, Emily followed the marked trails, snapping photos of dew-kissed (带着露珠的) spider webs and squirrels dashing through the underbrush. However, as the morning turned into afternoon, she decided to stray from the beaten path to explore a more hidden area, rumored to house the eldest and most majestic pine in the reserve. The deeper she wandered, the quieter the forest grew, except for the occasional rustle of leaves and distant birds. Focused intently on her photography, Emily scarcely noticed the shifting shadows and the subtle change in the forest. She then realized it was getting late but she had not yet found the eldest pine. And she had not only strayed off the path but was now thoroughly lost. Panic fluttered in her chest. She attempted to backtrack, hoping to find familiar landmarks, but the forest seemed to have rearranged itself behind her. The trees stood pitiless, their trunks like silent guards that offered no guidance. With her phone’s signal frustratingly absent in the thick forest, Emily felt a surge of helplessness. 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。 Emily remembered reading about the importance of staying calm when lost. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nodding eagerly, Emily explained her situation to the local man. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Emily remembered reading about the importance of staying calm when lost. She found a relatively clear spot and decided to wait, hoping that a ranger who takes care of forest or another hiker might pass by. To keep calm, she resumed taking photos, capturing the stunning beauty of the fog-wrapped forest, each shot a stark contrast to the morning’s vibrant frames. As hours passed, the sound of footsteps crunching on dry leaves alerted Emily to the presence of another. A wave of relief washed over her as an elderly man emerged from the mist, his face creased with a kind smile beneath a wide-brimmed hat. “I thought I might find someone out here,” he said in a gentle voice, noticing Emily’s camera. “You must be here for Old Pine’s eldest.” Nodding eagerly, Emily explained her situation to the local man. The man, who introduced himself as a local historian, knew the forest like the back of his hand. With a comforting assurance, he offered to lead her back to the main trail and then to the ancient pine she had sought. As they walked, the old man shared stories of the forest’s history and its significance to the local community. The forest, he explained, was not just a collection of trees but a living memory of the town’s heritage. Finally, they arrived at the grand old pine. Its vast trunk and overgrown branches were indeed a sight to behold, majestic and enduring. Emily captured the tree in her lens, a permanent reminder of her adventure and the lessons learned. She thanked the old man earnestly, her heart full of gratitude for the unexpected friendship and the invaluable lesson in humility and respect for nature. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了艾米丽，一个敏锐的摄影师，一个人去著名的老松树风景区的旅行，她被高耸的松树的静谧和壮丽所吸引。最初，艾米丽沿着标记的路径，拍摄露珠吻的蜘蛛网和松鼠在灌木丛中奔跑的照片。然而，当上午变成下午时，她决定离开人迹罕至的小路，去探索一个更隐蔽的地方，据说那里有保护区内最古老、最雄伟的松树。就在她离开的途中，她迷路了；她无法找到熟悉的地标。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“艾米丽记起在书中读到过迷路时保持冷静的重要性。”可知，第一段可描写艾米丽在迷路的过程中如何保持冷静。 ②由第二段首句内容“爱米丽急切地点点头，向当地人解释了她的处境。”可知，第二段可描写艾米丽在老人的带领下来到那棵高大的老松树前，并且对老人表示感谢。 2.续写线索：意识到保持冷静的重要性——在相对清晰的地方等待——拍照捕捉森林之美——一位老人从迷雾中走出——急切地点头，向老人解释处境——老人介绍自己——老人一边走一边分享森林的故事——来到高大的老松树前——艾米丽拍下松树以提醒自己——对老人表示感谢 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①保持冷静：keep calm/stay calm/keep one’s head ②继续：resume/continue/go on ③到达：arrive at/reach/get to 情绪类 ①宽慰/安慰： relief/ease/ comfort ②感谢：thank/show gratitude to 【点睛】[高分句型1] She found a relatively clear spot and decided to wait, hoping that a ranger who takes care of forest or another hiker might pass by.（运用了现在分词作状语，that引导的宾语从句，who引导的定语从句） [高分句型2] The man, who introduced himself as a local historian and knew the forest like the back of his hand.（运用了who引导的非限制性定语从句） 听力1—5 CABAC 6—10 BBAAC 11—15 AABAB 16—20 CBACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
