Such is the story of Jean- Dominique — locked in his body as one is trapped in a diving bell (a container carrying people to the deep sea), yet free to wander, dream and travel to faraway places using only his mind. Jean, an editor of the ELLE magazine, lived a fast pace life in the world of fashion. Then one day, he had a severe disease that left him an extremely rare condition. Jean’s mind was fully functioning and aware while the blinking (眨) of his left eye was his only means of communication. Imagine for just a moment what it would be like to lie perfectly still, and the only thing you can move is your left eye. As an experiment — try to read the rest of this article using only your left eye. Jean’s therapist (治疗专家) designed a means for him to communicate by organizing all the letters by their frequency and reading each letter. Jean would blink once when the correct letter was read that matched the letter in the word he was thinking. He would painstakingly spell each word in the sentence he was thinking. Using this method he was able to pen his memoir (自传). He tells how he would mentally write, edit and rewrite his sentences before communicating them to his therapist. “My diving bell becomes less unbearable, and my mind takes flight like a butterfly. There is so much to do. You can wander off in space or in time.” Jean-Dominique writes in The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Near the end of his book, Jean is reduced to examining the contents of the half-opened purse of his assistant. Tissues, folded franc notes, subway tickets, keys, “keys” he thinks: “Does the universe contain keys for opening up my diving bell? A subway line with no last-stop? A currency strong enough to buy my freedom back? We must keep looking. I’ll be off now.” Thus he ends the book. 24. Why does the author use “a diving bell”? A. To attract readers’ attention. B. To generate readers’ sympathy. C. To show Jean’s complete immobility. D. To stress Jean’s need for freedom of mind. 25. What is the purpose of paragraph 3? A. To explain how to read with one eye. B. To invite readers to do an experiment. C. To call for attention to physical health. D. To involve readers in what Jean had to face. 26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Jean learning to “write”. B. Jean publishing his memoir. C. Jean communicating poorly. D. Jean getting on with his doctor. 27. What does Jean intend to express at the end of his book? A. The life cycles. B. A desire for wealth. C. His mental strength. D. Gratitude to his assistant. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了曾经是《ELLE》杂志的编辑的Jean-Dominique因严重疾病导致身体几乎完全瘫痪，但凭借顽强的意志和独特的沟通方式，用思想书写自传《潜水钟与蝴蝶》的感人故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Such is the story of Jean- Dominique- locked in his body as one is trapped in a diving bell (a container carrying people to the deep sea), yet free to wander, dream and travel to faraway places using only his mind.(这就是Jean-Dominique的故事——他的身体像被困在潜水钟（一种载人潜入深海的容器）里一样无法动弹，但他的思想却是自由的，可以随意漫游、梦想并远行至遥远的地方。)”，以及第二段“Jean, an editor of the ELLE magazine, lived a fast pace life in the world of fashion. Then one day, he had a severe disease that left him an extremely rare condition.(Jean曾是《ELLE》杂志的一名编辑，在时尚界过着快节奏的生活。然而，有一天，他患上了一种严重的疾病，导致他陷入了一种极其罕见的状况。)”可知，作者使用“a diving bell”是为了形象地展示Jean的身体完全无法动弹的状态，就像被困在潜水钟里一样。这种比喻帮助读者更直观地理解Jean所经历的困境，故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Imagine for just a moment what it would be like to lie perfectly still, and the only thing you can move is your left eye. As an experiment— try to read the rest of this article using only your left eye.(想象一下，如果你必须完全静止地躺着，唯一能动的只有左眼，那会是一种怎样的体验。作为一次尝试——试着只用你的左眼来阅读这篇文章的剩余部分。)”可推断，第三段的目的是让读者通过尝试只用左眼阅读来体验Jean所面临的困境，从而更深入地理解和感受他所经历的艰难。这种方式有助于读者与Jean的处境产生共鸣。故选D。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Jean’s therapist(治疗专家) designed a means for him to communicate by organizing all the letters by their frequency and reading each letter. Jean would blink once when the correct letter was read that matched the letter in the word he was thinking. He would painstakingly spell each word in the sentence he was thinking. Using this method he was able to pen his memoir(自传).(Jean的治疗专家设计了一种沟通方式，通过将所有字母按照出现频率排列，并逐一读出，Jean会在读到与他心中所想字母相匹配的字母时眨一次眼。他就这样痛苦地拼写出自己心中的每一个句子。用这种方法，他能够写下自己的回忆录。)”可知，第四段主要讲述了Jean如何通过眨动左眼与治疗专家沟通，并学会用这种方式拼写他心中的句子，从而完成他的自传。这种独特的“写作”方式是他为了克服身体无法动弹的困境而学会的。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Near the end of his book, Jean is reduced to examining the contents of the half- opened purse of his assistant. Tissues, folded franc notes, subway tickets, keys, “keys” he thinks: “Does the universe contain keys for opening up my diving bell? A subway line with no last- stop? A currency strong enough to buy my freedom back? We must keep looking. I’ll be off now.” Thus he ends the book.(在书的结尾部分，Jean只能查看他助理半开的钱包里的物品：纸巾、折好的法郎钞票、地铁票、钥匙。“钥匙”，他想：“宇宙中是否存在着打开我潜水钟的钥匙？一条没有终点的地铁线路？一种足够强大到能赎回我自由的货币？我们必须继续寻找。我现在就要出发了。”于是，他结束了这本书。)”可知，在书的结尾部分，Jean通过思考钱包里的钥匙等物品，表达了他对于打开自己困境（潜水钟）的渴望，以及继续寻找自由和可能的出路。这种表达突显了他面对困境时的坚强意志和精神力量。故选C。 C Belonging is important in most cultures. It can give you a sense of purpose. Working alongside people who might be serving an important cause, or being on a championship team, or working together with people who share similar goals, values, or interests makes a person feel important and useful. Sometimes, though, the belonging aspect can translate to a sense of “us versus them”. It can create a situation where you view someone who is not of your team or group as the enemy and the person to be feared. While this often happens in political contexts, it can also occur in daily life. You might hear the way someone talks, or look at their dress, or learn where they went to school, and depending on your alignment to a certain group you might consider them worthy of your attention, or ignore them because they don't belong where you belong. The problem with belonging is that sometimes you begin to gain such a sense of purpose from it, that your group is what matters most. In some cases, you may even find ways to separate from others not in your group. The fact is that fundamentally we all belong to the human race. We all have the same make- up and design underneath, with different packaging around us. When you use belonging to create separation, you are missing out on gifts that others might be able to share. It's one of the most hurtful and judgmental things you can do to someone else: dismissing them out of hand simply because they don't share the views of your group. Become aware of your desire to belong, and try to be objective about your need for it. Belonging can be a powerful experience, and it can also serve to separate you. You might want to be separated from the people in “that group,” but you end up cutting yourself off from potential gifts and support that may be meaningful to you. Having beliefs and supporting noble causes is certainly important, and simply being part of a group isn’t fundamentally a bad thing; just become watchful about whether it translates into a refusal to accept someone who belongs elsewhere. 28. What does belonging give a person according to paragraph 1? A. A sense of value. B. A chance to win. C. The power of culture. D. The way to fame. 29. Which has the similar meaning to the underlined word “alignment”? A. Restriction. B. Association. C. Resolution. D. Contribution. 30. What is explained in paragraph 3? A. The significance of groups. B. The underlying unity of people. C. The characteristics of belonging. D. The attraction of the external world. 31. What advice does the author give about belonging? A. Having a strong desire for it. B. Satisfying your need from it. C. Abandoning it for its likely dangers. D. Balancing it with openness to others. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章介绍了归属感存的特性以及建议我们要注意保持归属感与对他人的开放之间的平衡。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段中“Working alongside people who might be serving an important cause, or being on a championship team, or working together with people who share similar goals, values, or interests makes a person feel important and useful.(与可能为重要事业服务的人一起工作，或者加入冠军队，或者与有着相似目标、价值观或兴趣的人一起合作，会让人感到重要和有用。)”可知，归属感会给人一种价值感。故选A项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第二段“You might hear the way someone talks, or look at their dress, or learn where they went to school, and depending on your alignment to a certain group you might consider them worthy of your attention, or ignore them because they don't belong where you belong.(你可能会听到别人说话的方式，或者看看他们的衣服，或者了解他们在哪里上学，根据你与某个群体的 ，你可能会认为他们值得你关注，或者因为他们不属于你所属的地方而忽略他们。)”可猜测，这里指根据你与某群体的“关系或联系”，来确定这些人是否也属于这团体，从而判断是否值得你的关注。所以猜测alignment表“关系，联系”的意思，与B项Association意思相近。故选B项。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第三段“The problem with belonging is that sometimes you begin to gain such a sense of purpose from it, that your group is what matters most. In some cases, you may even find ways to separate from others not in your group. The fact is that fundamentally we all belong to the human race. We all have the same make- up and design underneath, with different packaging around us.(归属感的问题在于，有时你会从中获得一种目的感，你的团队是最重要的。在某些情况下，你甚至可以找到与不在你团队中的其他人分开的方法。事实上，根本上我们都属于人类。我们在内在上有相同的构造和设计，只是外在包装不同。)”可知，本段主要讨论第三段解释了人类的基本统一性。故选B项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Become aware of your desire to belong, and try to be objective about your need for it.(意识到你对归属感的渴望，并试着客观地看待你对归属的需求。)”以及“Having beliefs and supporting noble causes is certainly important, and simply being part of a group isn't fundamentally a bad thing; just become watchful about whether it translates into a refusal to accept someone who belongs elsewhere.(拥有信仰和支持崇高事业当然很重要，仅仅成为一个群体的一员从根本上来说并不是一件坏事；只要警惕这是否意味着拒绝接受属于其他地方的人。)”可知，作者建议我们要注意保持归属感与对他人的开放之间的平衡。故选D项。 D Illeism, put simply, is the practice of talking about oneself in the third person rather than the first person. This rhetorical device is often used by politicians to lend their words an air of objectivity. In his account of the Gallic War, for example, the emperor Julius Caesar wrote“ Caesar avenged (报复) the public” rather than “I avenged the public”. This small verbal shift seems intended to make the statement feel a little more like historical fact, recorded by an objective observer. To the modern ear, illeism can sound a little silly or self- important - and we may even ridicule famous people who choose to talk in this way. Yet recent psychological research suggests that illeism can bring some real mental benefits. If we are trying to make a difficult decision, speaking about ourselves in the third person can help to calm the emotions that could lead our thinking off course, allowing us to find a wiser solution to our problem. This approach corresponds to the scientific study of wisdom by Igor Grossmann at the University of Waterloo in Canada. The study revealed that the wisdom of people's reasoning can depend on the context. In particular, he found that their wise reasoning scores tended to be much higher when considering other people's situations than their own personal dilemmas. Grossmann called this“ Solomon's Paradox” after the ancient Biblical king, who was famous for advising others wisely, while making a series of disastrous personal decisions that ultimately left his kingdom in chaos. By switching to the third person, our descriptions of the situation will start to sound as if we are talking about someone else rather than ourselves. This sense of detachment (抽离) would allow us to see the bigger picture, rather than getting caught up in our own feelings. 32. Why is Julius Caesar mentioned? A. To present a fact. B. To serve as a proof. C. To introduce a war. D. To recommend a device. 33. What key point is conveyed in paragraph 2? A. Illeism supports clearer reasoning. B. Modern people dislike illeism. C. The famous are careful about illeism. D. Illeism enhances multiple emotions. 34. What can we learn from Grossmann's study? A. Dilemmas stimulate reasoning. B. Wisdom begins in wonder. C. Bystanders are clear- sighted. D. Every man has his own trouble. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. A Proven Device for Great Leaders B. The Ancient Trick for Wiser Thinking C. An Effective Way from a New Perspective D. The Age- Old Practice in Modern Experiment 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于“illeism”的探讨，包括其定义、用法、心理效应及其在科学上的解释。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“This rhetorical device is often used by politicians to lend their words an air of objectivity. In his account of the Gallic War, for example, the emperor Julius Caesar wrote“ Caesar avenged (报复) the public” rather than “I avenged the public”. This small verbal shift seems intended to make the statement feel a little more like historical fact, recorded by an objective observer.(政客们经常使用这种修辞手法来使他们的言辞听起来更加客观。例如，在凯撒大帝对高卢战争的记述中，他写道“凯撒为公众复仇”，而不是“我为公众复仇”。这种细微的语言变化似乎旨在使陈述听起来更像是由一个客观的观察者记录下来的历史事实。)”可知，文章提到尤利乌斯·凯撒是为了作为证明，说明“第三人称自我指代”这种修辞手法在政治家中的使用，以及它如何为言辞增添客观性。凯撒在记述高卢战争时使用“Caesar avenged the public”而不是“I avenged the public”，这个例子证明了illeism的使用可以使陈述听起来更加客观，像是由一个外部观察者记录的。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Yet recent psychological research suggests that illeism can bring some real mental benefits. If we are trying to make a difficult decision, speaking about ourselves in the third person can help to calm the emotions that could lead our thinking off course, allowing us to find a wiser solution to our problem.(然而，最近的心理研究表明，illeism能带来一些实实在在的心理益处。当我们在努力做出艰难决定时，用第三人称来描述自己可以帮助我们平复那些可能让我们的思维偏离正轨的情绪，从而让我们能够找到更明智的解决方案。)”可知，illeism有助于我们在决策时保持清晰的思维，由此第二段的关键点是传达了illeism可以支持更清晰的推理。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The study revealed that the wisdom of people's reasoning can depend on the context. In particular, he found that their wise reasoning scores tended to be much higher when considering other people's situations than their own personal dilemmas. Grossmann called this“ Solomon's Paradox” after the ancient Biblical king, who was famous for advising others wisely, while making a series of disastrous personal decisions that ultimately left his kingdom in chaos.(该研究揭示了人们推理的智慧程度可能取决于上下文。特别是，他发现当人们在考虑他人的情况时，他们的智慧推理得分往往比在面对自己的个人困境时更高。Grossmann将这种现象称为“所罗门的悖论”，这个名字来源于古代圣经中的国王所罗门，他因明智地建议他人而闻名，但自己却做出了一系列灾难性的个人决定，最终导致他的王国陷入混乱。)”可知，从Grossmann的研究中，我们可以了解到当人们在考虑他人的情况时，他们的智慧推理得分往往比在面对自己的个人困境时更高。这反映了旁观者清的道理，即当我们从外部观察或考虑他人的问题时，我们往往能够更客观地看待，并给出更明智的建议或判断。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Illeism, put simply, is the practice of talking about oneself in the third person rather than the first person.(简而言之，illeism（第三人称自我指代）是指用第三人称而非第一人称来谈论自己一种修辞手法。)”以及全文内容可知，文本主要探讨了“illeism”（第三人称自我指代）这一古老的修辞手法如何帮助人们更明智地思考和做决策。虽然这种修辞手法在古代就已被使用，但现代心理研究揭示了其背后的科学原理和实际效果，即它可以帮助我们平复情绪，避免情感冲动，从而更明智地看待问题和做出决策。因此，选项B“The Ancient Trick for Wiser Thinking(古老的智慧思考技巧)”最能准确反映文本的主题和核心信息。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。 Throughout history, the word “courage” has been associated with images of heroism — soldiers charging into battle, firefighters storming into burning buildings, or activists standing firm against unfairness. ___36___ It is a multi-dimensional virtue in our daily lives, a strength that helps us sail through the challenges in our life. ___37___ This is the bravery we see in those who put themselves in the line of fire to protect others. It’s what enables a person to fight back against an attacker. It allows us to overcome our fears, pushing our bodies past our limits when necessary. Moral courage is where the inner strength of our principles is truly tested. ___38___ Even when it’s unpopular or carries personal risk, we remain committed to our values. Witnesses refusing to be threatened in a court of law or citizens standing up to severe injustice all demonstrate extraordinary moral courage. Finally, there is the courage of endurance and perseverance. This could be seen as the courage to keep training when every muscle in your body screams at you to stop. ___39___ Endurance and perseverance allow us to accomplish goals that may initially seem impossible. These forms of courage are interconnected to give strength to the human character. Courage does not mean the absence of fear. ___40___ It is the quality that inspires awe(敬畏), yet exists within all of us, ready to be drawn out. Whether facing external dangers, maintaining our beliefs or dealing with our inner struggles, courage in its diverse forms is an essential element of a good and meaningful life. A. Fears are deep seated. B. It is far from everyone. C. Instead, it is about defeating it. D. We should do what we know is right. E. It’s the stubborn refusal to give in to difficulties. F. One of the most visible forms is physical courage. G. But it includes far more than just these extraordinary acts. 【答案】36. G 37. F 38. D 39. E 40. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍三种类型的勇气。 【36题详解】 由上文“Throughout history, the word ‘ourage’c has been associated with images of heroism—soldiers charging into battle, firefighters storming into burning buildings, or activists standing firm against unfairness.(纵观历史，‘勇气’一词一直与英雄主义的形象联系在一起——士兵冲入战斗，消防员冲进燃烧的建筑物，或坚决反对不公平的活动家。)”可知，这里主要讲人们常把勇气和英雄连系在一起，而G项But it includes far more than just these extraordinary acts.(但它包括的远不止这些非凡的行为。)符合语境，其中but与上文形成转折，it指代上文courage， these extraordinary acts与上文的例子对应，所以本句有承上启下的作用。故选G项。 【37题详解】 由下文“This is the bravery we see in those who put themselves in the line of fire to protect others. It’s what enables a person to fight back against an attacker. It allows us to overcome our fears, pushing our bodies past our limits when necessary.(这就是我们在那些冒着生命危险保护他人的人身上看到的勇气。它使一个人能够反击攻击者。它使我们能够克服恐惧，在必要时将我们的身体推向极限。)”可知，这里都是指具体表现在行动上的勇气，即身体上的勇气，而F项One of the most visible forms is physical courage.(最明显的形式之一是身体上的勇气。)符合语境，对下文有总括作用，其中physical courage与下文pushing our bodies past our limits对应。故选F项。 38题详解】 由下文“Even when it’s unpopular or carries personal risk, we remain committed to our values.(即使它不受欢迎或带有个人风险，我们仍然致力于我们的价值观。) ”可知，这里主要讲道德勇气让我们坚持自己的价值观，而D项We should do what we know is right.(我们应该做我们认为正确的事。)符合语境，其中do what we know is right与下文 remain committed to our values对应，有启下作用。故选D项。 【39题详解】 由上文“Finally, there is the courage of endurance and perseverance. This could be seen as the courage to keep training when every muscle in your body screams at you to stop.(最后，还有耐力和毅力的勇气。这可以被视为当你身体的每一块肌肉都在尖叫着让你停下来时，继续训练的勇气。)”可知，这里主要讲耐力和毅力的勇气，即坚持不屈服的精神，而E项It’s the stubborn refusal to give in to difficulties.(这是顽固地拒绝向困难屈服。)符合语境，It代指上文the courage of endurance and perseverance.，本句对耐力和毅力的勇气进一步解释，所以有承上作用。故选E项。 【40题详解】 由上文“These forms of courage are interconnected to give strength to the human character. Courage does not mean the absence of fear.(这些形式的勇气是相互联系的，为人的性格赋予力量。勇气并不意味着没有恐惧。)”可知，这里表明勇气并不意味着没有恐惧，而C项Instead, it is about defeating it.(相反，这是关于击败它。)符合语境，其中第一个it指代上文Courage，第二个it指代上文fear，有承上作用。故选C项。 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。 When Joe first proposed a trip to the Grand Canyon, I was thrilled.

She often criticized him, urging him to focus on his schoolwork instead of those“ useless machines”, as she called them. She wanted him to spend more time on his books, and less time lost in the world of robotics. He, however, always worked quietly on parts, trying to create inventions that could solve everyday problems. One day, Gabriel came back from school, bursting through the front door, holding a shining award in his hand. The gas detection robot he had built for months had just won first place in the regional competition. His heart raced as he imagined his mother would be proud this time. “Mom! Look! I won!” he cried. His mother, standing at the kitchen counter, looked briefly. She sighed, “That’s nice, Gabriel, but I still don’t see what good it will do you. It’s not going to help you with your grades or get you into college. You need to focus on something more practical.” Her voice showed no interest. Gabriel remained quiet, determined to prove that what he was doing had value. One evening, as the delicious smell of dinner floated through the house, an unexpected danger was quietly closing. Gabriel’s mother had been busy in the kitchen but had forgotten to turn off the gas. Unaware of the coming threat, she had wandered into the living room, settling down comfortably in front of the TV. The gas continued to escape, silently filling the air. The house was on the edge of a disaster. 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。 Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house. Gabriel’s gas detection robot had sensed the leak and sprung into action. The shrill sound jolted his mother from her TV reverie, her heart pounding as she realized the danger they were in. Quickly, she rushed to the kitchen, turned off the gas, and opened all the windows to let the fresh air disperse the dangerous fumes. As the alarm ceased, she stood there, breathing a sigh of relief, suddenly understanding the significance of Gabriel’s invention. It wasn’t just a toy or a useless machine; it was a lifesaver. Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school. She couldn’t wait to tell him how his creation had prevented a potential tragedy. When Gabriel finally walked through the door, his mother greeted him with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face. “Gabriel, you were right,” she said, hugging him tightly. “This robot isn’t just a hobby; it’s something that can protect us, make our lives safer. I’m sorry I didn’t see it before.” Gabriel’s heart swelled with pride and joy. From that day on, his mother became his biggest supporter, encouraging him to pursue his passion for robotics and recognizing the value of his inventions in making the world a better, safer place. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述Gabriel热爱机器人却遭母亲反对，他默默努力终获机器人比赛一等奖，但母亲仍不以为意。某晚，家中煤气泄漏，母亲却全然不知。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，一声响亮的警报响彻了整个房子。”可知，第一段可描写Gabriel的机器人检测到煤气泄漏并发出警报，母亲因此意识到危险并采取行动。 ②由第二段首句内容“Gabriel的妈妈轻轻地把机器人抱在怀里，等着Gabriel从学校回来。”可知，第二段可描写母亲对Gabriel的机器人态度转变，向Gabriel道歉并表达支持。 2.续写线索：机器人发出警报——母亲意识到煤气泄漏——母亲关闭煤气并打开窗户——母亲等待Gabriel回家——母亲向Gabriel道歉并表达支持 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/become aware/come to realize ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③等待：wait for/await 情绪类 ①如释重负：breathe a sigh of relief/feel relieved ②快乐：joy/happiness/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] The shrill sound jolted his mother from her TV reverie, her heart pounding as she realized the danger they were in.(运用了独立主格结构和从属连词as引导时间状语从句和省略关系代词的限制性定语从句) [高分句型2] Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school.(运用了现在分词作伴随状语) [高分句型3] When Gabriel finally walked through the door, his mother greeted him with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face.(运用了从属连词when引导时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 唐山市 2024—2025学年度高三年级摸底演练 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. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 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，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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where does the conversation take place?

B Every now and then you come across a story so powerful that it grabs you by the throat and just won’t let go. Such is the story of Jean- Dominique — locked in his body as one is trapped in a diving bell (a container carrying people to the deep sea), yet free to wander, dream and travel to faraway places using only his mind. Jean, an editor of the ELLE magazine, lived a fast pace life in the world of fashion. Then one day, he had a severe disease that left him an extremely rare condition. Jean’s mind was fully functioning and aware while the blinking (眨) of his left eye was his only means of communication. Imagine for just a moment what it would be like to lie perfectly still, and the only thing you can move is your left eye. As an experiment — try to read the rest of this article using only your left eye. Jean’s therapist (治疗专家) designed a means for him to communicate by organizing all the letters by their frequency and reading each letter. Jean would blink once when the correct letter was read that matched the letter in the word he was thinking. He would painstakingly spell each word in the sentence he was thinking. Using this method he was able to pen his memoir (自传). He tells how he would mentally write, edit and rewrite his sentences before communicating them to his therapist. “My diving bell becomes less unbearable, and my mind takes flight like a butterfly. There is so much to do. You can wander off in space or in time.” Jean-Dominique writes in The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Near the end of his book, Jean is reduced to examining the contents of the half-opened purse of his assistant. Tissues, folded franc notes, subway tickets, keys, “keys” he thinks: “Does the universe contain keys for opening up my diving bell? A subway line with no last-stop? A currency strong enough to buy my freedom back? We must keep looking. I’ll be off now.” Thus he ends the book. 24. Why does the author use “a diving bell”? A. To attract readers’ attention. B. To generate readers’ sympathy. C. To show Jean’s complete immobility. D. To stress Jean’s need for freedom of mind. 25. What is the purpose of paragraph 3? A. To explain how to read with one eye. B. To invite readers to do an experiment. C. To call for attention to physical health. D. To involve readers in what Jean had to face. 26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Jean learning to “write”. B. Jean publishing his memoir. C. Jean communicating poorly. D. Jean getting on with his doctor. 27. What does Jean intend to express at the end of his book? A. The life cycles. B. A desire for wealth. C. His mental strength. D. Gratitude to his assistant. C Belonging is important in most cultures. It can give you a sense of purpose. Working alongside people who might be serving an important cause, or being on a championship team, or working together with people who share similar goals, values, or interests makes a person feel important and useful. Sometimes, though, the belonging aspect can translate to a sense of “us versus them”. It can create a situation where you view someone who is not of your team or group as the enemy and the person to be feared. While this often happens in political contexts, it can also occur in daily life. You might hear the way someone talks, or look at their dress, or learn where they went to school, and depending on your alignment to a certain group you might consider them worthy of your attention, or ignore them because they don't belong where you belong. The problem with belonging is that sometimes you begin to gain such a sense of purpose from it, that your group is what matters most. In some cases, you may even find ways to separate from others not in your group. The fact is that fundamentally we all belong to the human race. We all have the same make- up and design underneath, with different packaging around us. When you use belonging to create separation, you are missing out on gifts that others might be able to share. It's one of the most hurtful and judgmental things you can do to someone else: dismissing them out of hand simply because they don't share the views of your group. Become aware of your desire to belong, and try to be objective about your need for it. Belonging can be a powerful experience, and it can also serve to separate you. You might want to be separated from the people in “that group,” but you end up cutting yourself off from potential gifts and support that may be meaningful to you. Having beliefs and supporting noble causes is certainly important, and simply being part of a group isn’t fundamentally a bad thing; just become watchful about whether it translates into a refusal to accept someone who belongs elsewhere. 28. What does belonging give a person according to paragraph 1? A. A sense of value. B. A chance to win. C. The power of culture. D. The way to fame. 29. Which has the similar meaning to the underlined word “alignment”? A. Restriction. B. Association. C. Resolution. D. Contribution. 30. What is explained in paragraph 3? A. The significance of groups. B. The underlying unity of people. C. The characteristics of belonging. D. The attraction of the external world. 31. What advice does the author give about belonging? A. Having a strong desire for it. B. Satisfying your need from it. C. Abandoning it for its likely dangers. D. Balancing it with openness to others. D Illeism, put simply, is the practice of talking about oneself in the third person rather than the first person. This rhetorical device is often used by politicians to lend their words an air of objectivity. In his account of the Gallic War, for example, the emperor Julius Caesar wrote“ Caesar avenged (报复) the public” rather than “I avenged the public”. This small verbal shift seems intended to make the statement feel a little more like historical fact, recorded by an objective observer. To the modern ear illeism can sound a little silly or self- important - and we may even ridicule famous people who choose to talk in this way. Yet recent psychological research suggests that illeism can bring some real mental benefits. If we are trying to make a difficult decision, speaking about ourselves in the third person can help to calm the emotions that could lead our thinking off course, allowing us to find a wiser solution to our problem. This approach corresponds to the scientific study of wisdom by Igor Grossmann at the University of Waterloo in Canada. The study revealed that the wisdom of people's reasoning can depend on the context. In particular, he found that their wise reasoning scores tended to be much higher when considering other people's situations than their own personal dilemmas. Grossmann called this“ Solomon's Paradox” after the ancient Biblical king, who was famous for advising others wisely, while making a series of disastrous personal decisions that ultimately left his kingdom in chaos. By switching to the third person, our descriptions of the situation will start to sound as if we are talking about someone else rather than ourselves. This sense of detachment (抽离) would allow us to see the bigger picture, rather than getting caught up in our own feelings. 32. Why is Julius Caesar mentioned? A. To present a fact. B. To serve as a proof. C. To introduce a war. D. To recommend a device. 33. What key point is conveyed in paragraph 2? A. Illeism supports clearer reasoning. B. Modern people dislike illeism. C. The famous are careful about illeism. D. Illeism enhances multiple emotions. 34. What can we learn from Grossmann's study? A. Dilemmas stimulate reasoning. B. Wisdom begins in wonder. C. Bystanders are clear- sighted. D. Every man has his own trouble. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. A Proven Device for Great Leaders B The Ancient Trick for Wiser Thinking C. An Effective Way from a New Perspective D.

His mother, however, did not think much of it. She often criticized him, urging him to focus on his schoolwork instead of those“ useless machines”, as she called them. She wanted him to spend more time on his books, and less time lost in the world of robotics. He, however, always worked quietly on parts, trying to create inventions that could solve everyday problems. One day, Gabriel came back from school, bursting through the front door, holding a shining award in his hand. The gas detection robot he had built for months had just won first place in the regional competition. His heart raced as he imagined his mother would be proud this time. “Mom! Look! I won!” he cried. His mother, standing at the kitchen counter, looked briefly. She sighed, “That’s nice, Gabriel, but I still don’t see what good it will do you. It’s not going to help you with your grades or get you into college. You need to focus on something more practical.” Her voice showed no interest. Gabriel remained quiet, determined to prove that what he was doing had value. One evening, as the delicious smell of dinner floated through the house, an unexpected danger was quietly closing. Gabriel’s mother had been busy in the kitchen but had forgotten to turn off the gas. Unaware of the coming threat, she had wandered into the living room, settling down comfortably in front of the TV. The gas continued to escape, silently filling the air. The house was on the edge of a disaster. 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。 Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
