B When I was a little girl, I liked drawing, freely and joyously making marks on the walls at home. In primary school, I learned to write using chalks. Writing seemed to be another form of drawing. I shaped individual letters into repeating lines, which were abstract forms, delightful but meaningless patterns. In secondary school, art was my favourite subject. Since I loved it so much I thought I was good at it. For the art O-level exam I had to present an oil painting. I found it difficult, but still hoped to pass. I failed, with a low grade. I’d been over-confident. Now I’d been declared talentless. But other channels of creativity stayed open: I went on writing poems and stories. Still, I went to exhibitions often. I continued my habitual drawing, which I now characterised as childish doodling (乱画). In my 30s, I made painter friends and learned new ways of looking at art. However, I couldn’t let myself have a go at actually doing it. Though these new friends were abstract painters using oil paints, or were printmakers or sculptors, I took oil painting as the taboo (禁忌) high form I wasn’t allowed to practice. One night, in my early 40s, I dreamed that a big woman in red approached me, handed me a bag of paints, and told me to start painting. The dream felt so authoritative that it shook me. It was a form of energy, giving me back something I’d lost. Accordingly, I started by experimenting with water colours. Finally, I bought some oil paints. Although I have enjoyed breaking my decades-long taboo about working with oil paints, I have discovered I now prefer chalks and ink. I let my line drawings turn into cartoons I send to friends. It all feels free and easy. Un-anxious. This time around, I can accept my limitations but keep going. Becoming a successful painter calls for being resolute. I realised I was always afraid of wanting too much. That dream reminded me that those fears and desires could encourage me to take risks and make experiments. 4. How did the author feel about the result of the art exam? A. Scared. B. Worried. C. Discouraged. D. Wronged. 5. In her 30s, the author _________. A. avoided oil painting practice B. sought for a painting career C. fancied abstract painting D. exhibited child paintings 6. Which word would best describe the author’s dream? A. Confusing. B. Empowering. C Disturbing. D. Entertaining. 7. What can we learn from this passage? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Hard work is the mother of success. C. Dreams are the reflections of realities. D. Creative activities involve being confident. C Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel. Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply. That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted（分心）driving was "only increasing, unfortunately." "Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving. An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws. "We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone." 8. Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US? A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair. 9. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out? A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone. C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene. 10. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You Start B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers. D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer. D Last month, I came across a time capsule in an old box. Faded (褪色的) and worn, it was a friendship bracelet (手链) , in purple and green floss (丝线)— an important part of my teenage summers. Holding it in my hand made me think about those precious memories of childhood, which my kids will never know firsthand. The bracelet made by me wasn’t beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty of the offering: slipping something into a friend’s hand and knowing it would always be with them. The experience was intoxicating and impressive. It was a symbol of an unbreakable bond. Those bracelets represented how much we meant to each other, at a time when our friends were becoming the center of our lives. I wore them all summer long at camp. And I acquired new bracelets from friends there— friends who received carefully crafted bracelets from me in return, as we said our tearful end-of-summer goodbyes. I thought having them helped ease the pain of leaving my friends. But now I see that they were really helping me to leave behind childhood. My kids don’t go to summer camp. They certainly don’t exchange anything as uncool as bracelets with their friends. They hang out on Discord (一种聊天软件) in chats that only pause but never end. Our eldest son endlessly texts on his cellphone as he and his friends make one another talking emojis and TikTok videos. Their relationships with their phones leave no time or space for writing letters or making bracelets, and their gifts to one another leave no clear and definite traces. There will be no boxes of letters to sort years from now nor any hidden bracelets to find. They will have little to physically hold on to. 12. Why does the author associate (联想) a bracelet with a time capsule? A. It is faded and worn. B. It reminds her of her childhood. C. It is shaped like a capsule. D. It was made by the author herself. 13. What does the underlined word “intoxicating” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Professional. B. Tiresome. C. Exciting. D. Strange. 14. Why does the author think her kids’ childhood is different from hers? A. They make more friends at summer camp. B. They spend too much time on their cellphones. C. They are unwilling to give bracelets to parents. D. They often send hand-made gifts to their friends 15. What can be inferred about the friendship bracelets? A. They proved the author’s kids had much to physically hold onto. B. They represented both the author and her kids’ unforgettable childhood C. They gave meaning to the author’s childhood in a way her kids will never know D. They recalled the author’s deep sorrow of leaving close friends at summer camp 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。 Tips to Be an Expert at Managing Your Time Do you have too much to do and too little time?

Wilson was filling his backpack when a voice came out of the loudspeaker. “Good afternoon, students. This is a reminder that the All-City Math Contest will be in two weeks. The contest is open to fifth and sixth graders, and the top prize is fifty dollars. Please speak to your teacher if you’d like to participate. “I am confident that I could excel in that contest,” Wilson thought to himself. Determined to participate in the competition, he rushed to his teacher’s desk and told her that he wanted to enter that math contest. Ms. Jones looked up from her papers and said, “That’s wonderful, Wilson, but I’m afraid that this contest is for fifth and sixth graders only. Besides, our class has not yet covered some of the topics that will be tested.” Wilson was not ready to give up. He knew he had a natural talent for math. “But you know that I’m good at math!” Wilson protested. “I do math problems with my brother all the time - and he’s in sixth grade! I think I could do really well!” “You are a very good math student, Wilson, but rules are rules. I’m sure that you can enter next year.” Wilson came home frustrated and disappointed, stormed upstairs without saying a word to his mother, and slammed the door to his room shut. His mother quickly appeared at his door, knocked, and came in. “Dear, did something happen today?” She was concerned. Wilson was quiet for a minute, then it all came out. In a burst of emotion, he told his mom about the contest, how excited he was to enter, and how angry he felt when his teacher told him that he wouldn’t be allowed to do so this year. “It’s just not fair, Mom,” he complained. “I know I could really do well on it. Why won’t they let me?” Wilson’s mother put her hand on his shoulder. “Sometimes, son,” she said softly, “people follow rules even when they don’t make sense. Perhaps you can persuade your teacher to make an exception for you.” Wilson perked up: he had an idea. 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。 The next day, Wilson went straight to Ms. Jones’ office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Forty minutes later, he finished Ms. Jones’ test and handed it to her. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1—5 BACBC 6—10 CBABB 11—15 CBACA 16—20 CACBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海南省农垦实验中学2025届高三8月摸底考试 英语试卷 分值：150分 时间：120分钟 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.

Additionally, you will help...”（作为一名教师助理，你将提供积极的态度和指导来帮助孩子……此外，你会帮助……）可知，如果你决定参加这些社区活动，就需要对社区活动起到帮助、协助作用。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据活动“Garbage Olympics”中描述的“A Pittsburgh wide competition between neighborhoods to see who can get the most litter and garbage off our beloved city streets!”（匹兹堡社区之间展开了一场大范围的比赛，看谁能从我们心爱的城市街道上拿走最多的垃圾！）可知，这项活动主要是帮助城市街道清理垃圾，保护城市环境，因此，环保主义者最有可能参加这项活动。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“As a tutoring assistant, you will offer a positive attitude and coaching to help children to stay on track during the in-person tutoring session. Additionally, you will help provide academic assistance in the form of reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation and math to school-aged children.”（作为一名教师助理，你将提供积极的态度和指导，以帮助孩子在面对面的辅导过程中保持在正轨上；此外，你还将为学龄儿童提供阅读、写作、语法、发音和数学方面的学术帮助。）可知，教师助理需要帮助孩子们学习，提供学业上的帮助。故选A。 B When I was a little girl, I liked drawing, freely and joyously making marks on the walls at home.

One night, in my early 40s, I dreamed that a big woman in red approached me, handed me a bag of paints, and told me to start painting. The dream felt so authoritative that it shook me. It was a form of energy, giving me back something I’d lost. Accordingly, I started by experimenting with water colours. Finally, I bought some oil paints. Although I have enjoyed breaking my decades-long taboo about working with oil paints, I have discovered I now prefer chalks and ink. I let my line drawings turn into cartoons I send to friends. It all feels free and easy. Un-anxious. This time around, I can accept my limitations but keep going. Becoming a successful painter calls for being resolute. I realised I was always afraid of wanting too much. That dream reminded me that those fears and desires could encourage me to take risks and make experiments. 4. How did the author feel about the result of the art exam? A. Scared. B. Worried. C. Discouraged. D. Wronged. 5. In her 30s, the author _________. A. avoided oil painting practice B. sought for a painting career C fancied abstract painting D. exhibited child paintings 6. Which word would best describe the author’s dream? A. Confusing. B. Empowering. C. Disturbing. D. Entertaining. 7. What can we learn from this passage? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Hard work is the mother of success. C. Dreams are the reflections of realities. D. Creative activities involve being confident. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一直喜欢绘画，但中学时由于油画测试成绩较低，作者对绘画失去了信心。在40岁出头时，一个梦让作者重拾画油画的信心并接受了自身局限性的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I found it difficult, but still hoped to pass. I failed, with a low grade. I’d been over-confident. Now I’d been declared talentless.(我觉得很难，但仍希望能通过测试。我没有通过，而且成绩很低。我过于自信了。现在，我被宣布为毫无(油画)天赋的人了)”并结合下文中作者多年不碰油画的经历可推知，作者对美术考试的结果感到气馁。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In my 30s, I made painter friends and learned new ways of looking at art.(在我30多岁时，我结交了画家朋友们，学到了看待艺术的新方法)”和“Though these new friends were abstract painters using oil paints, or were printmakers or sculptors, I took oil painting as the taboo (禁忌) high form I wasn’t allowed to practice. (虽然这些新朋友是使用油画颜料的抽象画师，或者是版画家或雕塑家，但我把油画作为禁忌的高级形式，不允许我练习)”可知，作者在30多岁时回避练习油画。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The dream felt so authoritative that it shook me. It was a form of energy, giving me back something I’d lost. (这个梦给我的感觉是如此的权威，它震撼了我。它是能量的一种形式，让我回我失去了的东西)”可知，作者的梦赋予作者练习油画的力量。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Becoming a successful painter calls for being resolute. I realised I was always afraid of wanting too much. (成为一名成功的画家需要有决心。我意识到我总是害怕想要得太多)”及文章内容可知，本文主要讲述了作者一直喜欢绘画，但中学时由于油画测试成绩较低，作者对绘画失去了信心。在40岁出头时，一个梦让作者重拾画油画的信心并接受了自身局限性的故事。由此可推知，我们能从文章中学到创作活动需要自信，故选D。 C Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel. Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply. That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted（分心）driving was "only increasing, unfortunately." "Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving. An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws. "We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone." 8. Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US? A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair. 9. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out? A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone. C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene. 10. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You Start B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers. D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文一篇说明文。为解决司机在开车时使用手机造成“分神”，引发交通事故的问题，纽约的一名立法者提出使用Textalyzer（短信监控器）的技术来监控司机在开车的时候是否使用了手机。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel.”（在过去的七年里，大多数州都禁止司机发短信，公共服务活动也尝试了各种各样的方法来说服人们在开车时放下手机。）以及第二段中“Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse.”（然而，无论以何种标准衡量，这个问题似乎都在恶化。）可知，大多数州使用了各种各样的方法说服司机们在开车的时候放下手机，可是情况却越来越糟糕。所以各种方法是无效的。A选项ineffective意为“无效的”，与此相符。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws.”（这项技术可以确定司机是否发了短信、发了邮件，或者做了纽约免提驾驶法不允许的其他事情。）可知，Textalyzer能够确定的是司机是否使用了手机发短信、邮件以及其他驾驶法不允许的行为。B 选项意为“是否司机使用了手机。”与此相符，故选B。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据句中的“We need something on the books that can change people's behavior.”（我们需要一些能改变人们行为的东西，）可知，something是能够改变人们的行为的事情。根据下文的“If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone.”（他说，如果Textalyzer法案成为法律，“人们会更害怕拿起手机。）可知，人们的行为会改变的条件是当Textalyzer法案成为法律。受到法律的约束和惩罚，司机们才不会在开车的时候使用手机。故something指代的是法律。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。纵观全文，第一段和第二段阐述的是“虽然大多数州已经尝试了各种各样的方法来说服人们在开车时放下手机。可是问题却越来越严重”。第三段中“That is partly because people are driving more.”（部分原因是开车的人越来越多）可知，解释了该行为产生的部分原因。第四段至第五段讲述的是为了解决该问题是纽约立法者提出了一个新的想法即利用Textalyzer技术，来监控司机在开车的时候是否使用了手机。最后一段讲述的是：相关人士呼吁该项技术能够成为真正的法案由此才能真正地改变人们的行为。故B选项Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer（发短信还是在开车？防范短信监控器。）适合文章的标题。故选B。 D Last month, I came across a time capsule in an old box. Faded (褪色的) and worn, it was a friendship bracelet (手链) , in purple and green floss (丝线)— an important part of my teenage summers. Holding it in my hand made me think about those precious memories of childhood, which my kids will never know firsthand. The bracelet made by me wasn’t beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty of the offering: slipping something into a friend’s hand and knowing it would always be with them. The experience was intoxicating and impressive. It was a symbol of an unbreakable bond. Those bracelets represented how much we meant to each other, at a time when our friends were becoming the center of our lives. I wore them all summer long at camp. And I acquired new bracelets from friends there— friends who received carefully crafted bracelets from me in return, as we said our tearful end-of-summer goodbyes. I thought having them helped ease the pain of leaving my friends. But now I see that they were really helping me to leave behind childhood. My kids don’t go to summer camp. They certainly don’t exchange anything as uncool as bracelets with their friends. They hang out on Discord (一种聊天软件) in chats that only pause but never end. Our eldest son endlessly texts on his cellphone as he and his friends make one another talking emojis and TikTok videos. Their relationships with their phones leave no time or space for writing letters or making bracelets, and their gifts to one another leave no clear and definite traces. There will be no boxes of letters to sort years from now nor any hidden bracelets to find. They will have little to physically hold on to. 12. Why does the author associate (联想) a bracelet with a time capsule? A. It is faded and worn. B. It reminds her of her childhood. C. It is shaped like a capsule. D. It was made by the author herself. 13. What does the underlined word “intoxicating” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Professional. B. Tiresome. C. Exciting. D. Strange. 14. Why does the author think her kids’ childhood is different from hers? A. They make more friends at summer camp. B. They spend too much time on their cellphones. C. They are unwilling to give bracelets to parents. D. They often send hand-made gifts to their friends 15. What can be inferred about the friendship bracelets? A. They proved the author’s kids had much to physically hold onto. B. They represented both the author and her kids’ unforgettable childhood C. They gave meaning to the author’s childhood in a way her kids will never know D. They recalled the author’s deep sorrow of leaving close friends at summer camp 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章讲述作者在发现一条自己制作的友情手链后，回忆起了童年时代与朋友们交换手链的美好回忆。作者发现现在的孩子们不再进行这样的传统交换，而是通过手机和社交软件保持联系，这使得他们无法像之前那样留下有实物证据的友情回忆。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Faded (褪色的) and worn, it was a friendship bracelet (手链) , in purple and green floss (丝线)— an important part of my teenage summers. (褪了色，磨损了，那是一条友谊的手链，用紫色和绿色的丝线做的——这是我十几岁夏天的重要组成部分。)”可知，这串手链与作者童年的夏天有着重要的联系，所以把手链与时间胶囊联系起来正是因为手链让作者想到了自己童年的夏天。故选B。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面“The bracelet made by me wasn’t beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty of the offering: slipping something into a friend’s hand and knowing it would always be with them. (我制作的手链并不美丽，但我记得的是这种奉献的美丽：把东西塞到朋友的手中，知道它们永远与他们在一起。)”可知，作者的手工艺品并不是很美，但是当把它送给朋友时意义变得深刻。所以这段经历应该是很美好的，是令人激动的，故此处需要选择一个褒义词与后文的impressive构成并列。C选项“exciting(令人激动的)”与划线词为同义词。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“They hang out on Discord (一种聊天软件) in chats that only pause but never end. Our eldest son endlessly texts on his cellphone as he and his friends make one another talking emojis and TikTok videos. (他们在Discord上聊天，只会暂停，但永远不会结束。我们的大儿子没完没了地在手机上发短信，他和他的朋友们互相制作会说话的表情符号和TikTok视频。)”可知，作者认为与以前不同的是现在的孩子们花太多的时间在手机上。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There will be no boxes of letters to sort years from now nor any hidden bracelets to find. They will have little to physically hold on to. (从现在起，多年以后，不再有一箱箱信件需要分类，也不会有隐藏的手链需要寻找。他们将没有什么可以依靠的东西。)”可知，代表友谊的手链只有作者有，她的孩子没有。作者提到了手链让她想起了美妙的童年生活，而这种感受当今的孩子们是无法体会的，因为他们大多数沉浸在虚拟世界。这些手链以一种她的孩子们永远不会知道的方式赋予了作者童年的意义。故选C。 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。 Tips to Be an Expert at Managing Your Time Do you have too much to do and too little time?

The “Mars fever” that has been aroused shows people’s desire to know more about space, which requires more innovations(创新) to discover more about the universe ____45____ we live. 【答案】36. to reach 37. harder 38. designed 39. has progressed 40. scientific 41. it 42. curiosity 43. obviously 44. for 45. where 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。中国于周二发射了第一个火星探测器——天问一号，文章介绍了其任务和意义。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：天问一号预期将在约7个月后抵达火星。本句使用了短语 expect sb./sth. to do“预计某人/某物做……”的被动结构，应使用不定式。故填to reach。 【37题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：去火星的任务比起去月球要难很多。根据语境和空后的 compared to“和······相比”可知，此处要用形容词的比较级 harder。故填harder。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：中国的火星任务，旨在掌握火星表面关键地区的地图信息，表明中国的空间科技在过去这些年发展迅速。分析句子结构可知，mission 后是非限制性定语，design 与mission 是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词形式。故填designed。 【39题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：中国的火星任务，旨在掌握火星表面关键地区的地图信息，表明中国的空间科技在过去这些年发展迅速。根据句中的时间状语 in the past years 可知，indicates 后的宾语从句要用现在完成时。宾语从句的主语是 the country’s space science and technology，应视为第三人称单数，故填 has progressed。注意：此处的 progress 是动词，意为“进步，发展”。故填has progressed。 【40题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这表现了中华民族探寻科学真相的决心和毅力。本空作定语修饰名词truth，应使用science的形容词形式scientific“科学的”。故填scientific。 【41题详解】 考查形式主语。句意：天问一号发射后立即引起了人们的关注，据报道在关于太空飞行和探索外太空的话题下人们议论纷纷。根据语境可知，and后的句子是“it is/was reported＋that从句”句型，意为“据报道……”，其中it是形式主语，that从句是真正的主语。故填it。 【42题详解】 考查名词。句意：每当国家在太空探索上实现突破时，人们对未知的好奇和求知欲都明显会被激发出来。本空与后面的thirst并列作主语，应使用名词curiosity表示“好奇心”。故填curiosity。 【43题详解】 考查副词。句意：每当国家在太空探索上实现突破时，人们对未知的好奇和求知欲都明显会被激发出来。本空所填词修饰谓语动词，应该用副词obviously“显然，明显地”。故填obviously。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意：而宇航员、科学家和工程师们正成为越来越多年轻人的榜样。此处model 应与介词for搭配，表示“对于......”。故填for。 【45题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这场“火星热”表明人们渴望了解太空，这就需要更多的创新从而发现更多我们所在的这个宇宙的信息。分析句子结构可知，空白前句本身是定语从句，关系代词为the universe，后句中live是不及物动词，考虑定语从句中缺少地点状语，应使用关系副词where。故填where。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是学校英语俱乐部负责人李华，你们准备举办“汉语成语英语翻译大赛（English Translation Contest of Chinese Idioms)”。请用英文给在你校学习汉语的英国交换生George 写封邮件，邀请他参加，内容包括： 1.告知消息； 2.比赛安排。 注意： 1.词数100左右； 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear George, Good news for you!

Wilson was filling his backpack when a voice came out of the loudspeaker. “Good afternoon, students. This is a reminder that the All-City Math Contest will be in two weeks. The contest is open to fifth and sixth graders, and the top prize is fifty dollars. Please speak to your teacher if you’d like to participate. “I am confident that I could excel in that contest,” Wilson thought to himself. Determined to participate in the competition, he rushed to his teacher’s desk and told her that he wanted to enter that math contest. Ms. Jones looked up from her papers and said, “That’s wonderful, Wilson, but I’m afraid that this contest is for fifth and sixth graders only. Besides, our class has not yet covered some of the topics that will be tested.” Wilson was not ready to give up. He knew he had a natural talent for math. “But you know that I’m good at math!” Wilson protested. “I do math problems with my brother all the time - and he’s in sixth grade! I think I could do really well!” “You are a very good math student, Wilson, but rules are rules. I’m sure that you can enter next year.” Wilson came home frustrated and disappointed, stormed upstairs without saying a word to his mother, and slammed the door to his room shut. His mother quickly appeared at his door, knocked, and came in. “Dear, did something happen today?” She was concerned. Wilson was quiet for a minute, then it all came out. In a burst of emotion, he told his mom about the contest, how excited he was to enter, and how angry he felt when his teacher told him that he wouldn’t be allowed to do so this year. “It’s just not fair, Mom,” he complained. “I know I could really do well on it. Why won’t they let me?” Wilson’s mother put her hand on his shoulder. “Sometimes, son,” she said softly, “people follow rules even when they don’t make sense. Perhaps you can persuade your teacher to make an exception for you.” Wilson perked up: he had an idea. 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。 The next day, Wilson went straight to Ms. Jones’ office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Forty minutes later, he finished Ms. Jones’ test and handed it to her. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: The next day, Wilson went straight to Ms. Jones’ office. He surprised her by requesting to take a sixth-grade math test, which he had borrowed from his brother, hoping to compete in the upcoming contest. “If I take this test now and do a good job, can I be in the contest?” Wilson asked. Ms. Jones was impressed by his eagerness and agreed to his request, but reminded him that rules were rules. Wilson nodded, sat down at one of the empty desks, pulled out a pencil and started working on the test, carefully went through all the questions. Forty minutes later, he finished Ms. Jones’ test and handed it to her. She immediately pulled out her red pen and started to review his answers but was surprised to find no errors at all. “You’ve done remarkably well, Wilson. Even most sixth-graders couldn’t achieve a perfect score. I’ll present this to the principal and hope we can make an exception for you,” she said. “Thank you so much Ms. Jones!” Wilson was thrilled and hugged his teacher. “I’m delighted that you share my enthusiasm for math. In this case, I believe a little deviation from the rules is necessary,” Ms. Jones said with a chuckle Wilson couldn’t help but grin. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了擅长数学的四年级学生想要参加一个针对五年级和六年级的学生全市数学竞赛，因不符合参赛规则被他的老师拒绝参加。他感到非常失望，但在妈妈的鼓励下，Wilson决定尝试说服他的老师为自己争取一个参赛的机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，威尔逊直接去了琼斯女士的办公室”可知，第一段可描写威尔逊想要通过写六年级的试卷取得参加比赛的资格。 ②由第二段首句内容“四十分钟后，他完成了琼斯女士的试卷并把它交给了她”可知，第二段可描写威尔逊试卷没有错误，老师答应为他争取一个参赛名额。 2.续写线索：找老师——达成协议——完成试卷——批改试卷——试卷满分——答应提交校长——表达开心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①要求：request/demand ②拿出：pull out/take out ③提交：present /submit 情绪类 ①高兴：delighted/glad ②惊讶：surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] He surprised her by requesting to take a sixth-grade math test, which he had borrowed from his brother, hoping to compete in the upcoming contest.
