These trips will be epic! Cambodia Cambodia is a must-see destination for many travelers. With the addition of luxury hotels and vacation land, travelers can now enjoy a truly luxurious experience in Cambodia — mixing ancient ruins and culture, cuisine and handicrafts, rainforest and jungle, and ending with a wonderful beach stay. In the little-visited Cardamom Forest Protected Area, options for hiking, mountain biking, boating and bird-watching are plentiful. Paros Visiting the island is one of the best things to do in Greece since it means enjoying pleasant beaches surrounded by the blue waters of the Aegean Sea. While you’re here, explore the winding streets and charming villages of Naoussa and Lefkes, and drink coffee or wine at the beautiful port of Parikia. Texas As far as natural wonders go, it’s hard to beat a total solar eclipse (日食) for impressiveness… and for being easily predictable. But even if you know the eclipse’s path, you’ll still need to get to a spot with good visibility. That’s where Texas comes in. Ras Al Khaimah Ras Al Khaimah is a great spot for outdoorsy types, who can swim in the clear blue waters, then head off for a quad biking (四轮摩托车) adventure in the desert or fly across the desert on the world’s longest zipline. If you get a chance to spend New Year’s Eve here, don’t miss it. The Emirate holds multiple Guinness World Records for its magnificent fireworks performances held during its New Year’s celebrations. 1. What do Cambodia and Paros have in common? A. They own well-known ports. B. They have delightful beaches. C They offer options for boating. D. They host recent sporting events. 2. Which place will you choose for a clear view of a total solar eclipse? A. Cambodia. B. Paros. C. Texas. D. Ras Al Khaimah. 3. What is special about Ras Al Khaimah? A. It is known for its colorful nightlife. B. It has some fantastic beaches in the world. C. It is home to ancient ruins and cultural sites. D. It offers adventurous activities like motorcycling. B I recently watched the Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary on Netflix, and I have to tell you how impressed I was with his life story. I remember back in high school when my girl Clara and I were the only two girls in the gym working out and lifting weights. Yes, this was back in the dinosaur days when girls didn’t go to the gym. There were all these posters around Arnold. He was the bodybuilder of the day. He won the Mr. Universe title aged 20, and subsequently the Mr. Olympia title seven times. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time and has written many books and articles about it. He was a hero to so many of us gym rats. But what got me was his determination to get where he is today. He had a dream, and he went after it. He came from a small town on the other side of the world. They said he couldn’t make it in bodybuilding, but he went on to be one of the world’s most famous bodybuilders. They said he would never be an actor because of his accent, but in spite of that, he became box office gold. They said he had no potential for becoming a governor, but he showed them, winning not one but two terms in office and making some world changes while in there. He didn’t let anything or anyone stop him from what he wanted. No matter how many disappointments, how many failures, or how many people told him he couldn’t do it, it just made him more determined to prove them wrong. So today, my friends, the lesson here is to never give up, to hold onto your dream no matter how crazy others may think it is. To work hard and despite how many times you get knocked down or told no, that you keep fighting. Because as you can see here, dreams do come true. 4. What first inspired the author’s admiration for Schwarzenegger? A. His career as an actor. B. His success in politics. C. His contributions to literature. D. His achievements in bodybuilding. 5 How did Schwarzenegger demonstrate his determination? A. By directing a film. B. By realizing his dreams. C. By telling his life story. D. By voting for a governor. 6. What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A. The value of setting achievable goals. B. The necessity of seeking fame and recognition. C. The importance of maintaining physical fitness. D. The significance of perseverance and determination. 7. Where is this text most likely from? A. A diary. B. A guidebook. C. A blog. D. A novel. C For years, Egyptologists have hotly debated how the massive pyramids (金字塔) of ancient Egypt (埃及) were built more than 4,000 years ago. Now, a team of engineers and geologists brings a new theory to the table—a water lift device that would have floated the heavy stones up through the middle of Egypt’s oldest pyramid using stored water. Ancient Egyptians built the Step Pyramid for Pharaoh Djoser in the 27th century BC, and it was the tallest structure at the time, coming in at about 62 meters tall. But how exactly the structure was erected, with a number of stones weighing in at 300 kilograms, has remained a centuries-old mystery, according to the study published Monday in the journal PLOS One. “Many detailed publications have discussed pyramid-building procedures and provided real examples, but these usually focus on more recent, better-documented, and smaller pyramids of the Middle and New Kingdoms (1,980 to 1,075 BC),” said lead author Dr. Xavier Landreau, CEO of Paleotechnic, a privately owned research institute in Paris that studies ancient technologies. “The techniques involved could include ramps (活动坡道), cranes (起重机), or a combination of these methods,” he added in an email. “But what about the Old Kingdom pyramids (2,675 to 2,130 BC), which are much bigger? While human strength and ramps may be the only construction force for small structures, other techniques may have been used for large pyramids.” Using a combined approach, the new paper was the first to report a system matching the Step Pyramid’s internal architecture, the authors wrote. A complex water treatment system drawing upon local resources could have created a water-powered elevator within the pyramid’s internal vertical passage. Some type of float would have raised the heavy stones up the middle of the pyramid, according to the study. 8. What does the underlined word “erected” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Changed. B. Designed. C. Built. D. Destroyed. 9. Which may play a role in building small pyramids according to Dr. Landreau? A. People and ramps. B. Ramps and cranes. C. People and cranes. D. Water and ramps. 10. What is the main advantage of the water lift device in building pyramids? A. It simplifies the use of ramps. B. It helps to make heavy stones raised. C It increases the weight of the stones. D. It uses some resources for treatment. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Water Lift Theory: A New View on Pyramid Construction B. Recent Researches on the Stories of Egypt’s Small Pyramid C. A Historical Debate: Egypt’s Pyramid Construction Secrets D. Exploring Ancient Egyptian Pyramid Construction Mysteries D A new study by an international team of experts highlights how global methane (甲烷) emissions have been rising rapidly since 2006, particularly since 2020, a trend that’s expected to continue unless we do something very significant very soon. The study authors have then outlined some strategies countries can use to take action, and developed an online tool to help with this. This continual climb in methane emissions is largely due to the continued use of fossil (化石) fuels rather than cleaner options, the researchers say. It’s directly produced by oil, gas, and coal drilling and processing. The increasing release of methane from natural wetlands, caused by a hotter climate, is now also contributing. Methane is produced by rubbish sites, thawing permafrost, and animals too. The researchers, led by physicist and climate specialist Drew Shindell of Duke University in the US, suggest these are minor contributors at the moment — although ones that also need to be closely watched. “Worldwide efforts to limit climate change are rightly focused on carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary driver,” writes the team in their published paper. “However, since humanity has failed to properly address climate change for several decades, keeping warming below agreed goals now requires that we address all major climate pollutants.” There is currently much less methane in our atmosphere than carbon dioxide (CO2), but methane is a stronger greenhouse gas. We know that methane is a major contributor to the warming of the world, trapping heat like CO2 does. It also contributes to the formation of ozone (臭氧) at ground level, increasing the risk of death through respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases. “Rapid reductions in methane emissions this decade are essential to slowing warming in the near future, limiting overshoot by the middle of the century and keeping low-warming carbon budgets within reach,” write the researchers. Warnings from scientists about the state of Earth’s climate path are now reaching a deafening level. Humanity should pay close attention to those warnings and take action. 12. What do we know about methane emissions? A. They are currently a minor concern. B. They have been going up since 2006. C. They have decreased steadily since 2020. D. They are mainly caused by cleaner options. 13 What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The continued use of methane emissions. B. Strategies for reducing methane emissions. C. The impact of methane emissions on human health. D. The contributions of sources to methane emissions. 14. Why is reducing methane emissions considered urgent? A. Methane lessens the amount of ozone. B. Methane limits climate change effectively. C. Methane promotes global warming greatly. D. Methane keeps low-warming carbon budgets. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call on people to handle methane emissions. B. To introduce the history of methane emissions. C. To highlight the dangers of methane formation. D. To advocate for the increased use of fossil fuels. 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。 How to Boost Self Motivation Motivation is what drives you to take positive action. ____16____.

Lily had always dreamed of becoming a painter, but in her village, most girls were expected to help their families with farming or housework. Despite this, Lily’s parents recognized her talent and supported her passion for art. They saved to buy her brushes and paints, and Lily spent every spare moment practicing her craft. One day, an artist passing through the village noticed Lily’s paintings displayed proudly in her humble home. Impressed by her skill at such a young age, he encouraged Lily to follow her dreams in the city, where opportunities for artists were plentiful. Lily’s heart was filled with hope. With her parents’ blessing and a backpack filled with her artwork, Lily set off on a journey to the busy city. In the city, Lily faced many challenges. She lived in a narrow apartment and took odd jobs to make ends meet. Despite frustrations (挫折) and refusals, Lily persevered. She joined art classes, attended exhibitions, and sought out teachers who could guide her. Her determination caught the eye of a famous gallery owner who saw potential in her unique style. Lily’s first exhibition was a success, selling a few pieces that earned her just enough to cover her rent. As Lily’s fame grew, so did her confidence. She painted scenes inspired by her village, showing its beauty and simplicity. Her paintings began to attract collectors and art enthusiasts from far and wide. Lily’s dream of making a living through art was finally becoming a reality. But success didn’t protect Lily from self-doubt. The pressure to produce more, to meet expectations, weighed heavily on her shoulders. One day, Lily found herself staring at an empty canvas (画布), unable to find inspiration. Frustration started to appear, and doubts clouded her mind. Was she really good enough? Could she maintain her success? 注意： 1.所续写短文的总词数应为150左右： 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1 Just when Lily was on the edge of giving up, she received a letter from her village. _________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 With renewed determination, Lily returned to her canvas. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高三入学考试 英 语 考试时间120分钟，满分150分 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必在答题卡上将自己的姓名、座位号和准考证号用0.5毫米黑色签字笔填写清楚，考生考试条形码由监考老师粘贴在答题卡上的“贴条形码区”。 2.选择题使用2B铅笔填涂在答题卡上对应题目标号的位置上，如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后再填涂其它答案；非选择题用0.5毫米黑色签字笔在答题卡的对应区域内作答，超出答题区域答题的答案无效；在草稿纸上、试卷上答题无效。 3.考试结束后由监考老师将答题卡收回。 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。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.

I remember back in high school when my girl Clara and I were the only two girls in the gym working out and lifting weights. Yes, this was back in the dinosaur days when girls didn’t go to the gym. There were all these posters around Arnold. He was the bodybuilder of the day. He won the Mr. Universe title aged 20, and subsequently the Mr. Olympia title seven times. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time and has written many books and articles about it. He was a hero to so many of us gym rats. But what got me was his determination to get where he is today. He had a dream, and he went after it. He came from a small town on the other side of the world. They said he couldn’t make it in bodybuilding, but he went on to be one of the world’s most famous bodybuilders. They said he would never be an actor because of his accent, but in spite of that, he became box office gold. They said he had no potential for becoming a governor, but he showed them, winning not one but two terms in office and making some world changes while in there. He didn’t let anything or anyone stop him from what he wanted. No matter how many disappointments, how many failures, or how many people told him he couldn’t do it, it just made him more determined to prove them wrong. So today, my friends, the lesson here is to never give up, to hold onto your dream no matter how crazy others may think it is. To work hard and despite how many times you get knocked down or told no, that you keep fighting. Because as you can see here, dreams do come true. 4. What first inspired the author’s admiration for Schwarzenegger? A. His career as an actor. B. His success in politics. C. His contributions to literature. D. His achievements in bodybuilding. 5. How did Schwarzenegger demonstrate his determination? A. By directing a film. B. By realizing his dreams. C. By telling his life story. D. By voting for a governor. 6.

Now, a team of engineers and geologists brings a new theory to the table—a water lift device that would have floated the heavy stones up through the middle of Egypt’s oldest pyramid using stored water. Ancient Egyptians built the Step Pyramid for Pharaoh Djoser in the 27th century BC, and it was the tallest structure at the time, coming in at about 62 meters tall. But how exactly the structure was erected, with a number of stones weighing in at 300 kilograms, has remained a centuries-old mystery, according to the study published Monday in the journal PLOS One. “Many detailed publications have discussed pyramid-building procedures and provided real examples, but these usually focus on more recent, better-documented, and smaller pyramids of the Middle and New Kingdoms (1,980 to 1,075 BC),” said lead author Dr. Xavier Landreau, CEO of Paleotechnic, a privately owned research institute in Paris that studies ancient technologies. “The techniques involved could include ramps (活动坡道), cranes (起重机), or a combination of these methods,” he added in an email. “But what about the Old Kingdom pyramids (2,675 to 2,130 BC), which are much bigger? While human strength and ramps may be the only construction force for small structures, other techniques may have been used for large pyramids.” Using a combined approach, the new paper was the first to report a system matching the Step Pyramid’s internal architecture, the authors wrote. A complex water treatment system drawing upon local resources could have created a water-powered elevator within the pyramid’s internal vertical passage. Some type of float would have raised the heavy stones up the middle of the pyramid, according to the study. 8. What does the underlined word “erected” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Changed. B. Designed. C. Built. D. Destroyed. 9. Which may play a role in building small pyramids according to Dr. Landreau? A. People and ramps. B. Ramps and cranes. C. People and cranes. D. Water and ramps. 10. What is the main advantage of the water lift device in building pyramids? A. It simplifies the use of ramps. B. It helps to make heavy stones raised. C. It increases the weight of the stones. D. It uses some resources for treatment. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Water Lift Theory: A New View on Pyramid Construction B. Recent Researches on the Stories of Egypt’s Small Pyramid C. A Historical Debate: Egypt’s Pyramid Construction Secrets D. Exploring Ancient Egyptian Pyramid Construction Mysteries 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是新闻报道。这篇文章报道了一项新的研究发现，即关于古埃及金字塔建造方式的新理论。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据后文“with a number of stones weighing in at 300 kilograms, has remained a centuries-old mystery, according to the study published Monday in the journal PLOS One.(根据周一发表在《公共科学图书馆·综合》(PLOS One)杂志上的一项研究，这座由重达300公斤的石头组成的建筑，仍然是一个数百年来的谜)”可知，用重达300公斤的石头应是建造建筑，推知erected应是“建造”之意，和C项意思相近。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段““The techniques involved could include ramps (活动坡道), cranes (起重机), or a combination of these methods,” he added in an email. “But what about the Old Kingdom pyramids (2,675 to 2,130 BC), which are much bigger? While human strength and ramps may be the only construction force for small structures, other techniques may have been used for large pyramids.”(“所涉及的技术可能包括活动坡道、起重机，或这些方法的组合，”他在一封电子邮件中补充道，“但是，对于更大的古王国时期金字塔（公元前2675年至公元前2130年）来说呢？虽然人力和活动坡道可能是小型建筑唯一的施工力量，但大型金字塔可能采用了其他技术。”)”可知，人力和坡道可能在建造小金字塔中起作用。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“A complex water treatment system drawing upon local resources could have created a water-powered elevator within the pyramid’s internal vertical passage. Some type of float would have raised the heavy stones up the middle of the pyramid, according to the study.(根据研究，利用当地资源建立一个复杂的水处理系统，可以在金字塔内部的垂直通道内创建一个水动升降机。某种类型的漂浮物可以将沉重的石块提升到金字塔的中部)”可知，水升装置的主要优势在于它帮助提升重石。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“For years, Egyptologists have hotly debated how the massive pyramids (金字塔) of ancient Egypt (埃及) were built more than 4,000 years ago. Now, a team of engineers and geologists brings a new theory to the table—a water lift device that would have floated the heavy stones up through the middle of Egypt’s oldest pyramid using stored water.(多年来，埃及学家们一直在激烈争论4000多年前的古埃及巨大金字塔是如何建造的。现在，一组工程师和地质学家提出了一个新的理论，即一种水利升降设备，利用储存的水将沉重的石块通过埃及最古老的金字塔中部浮起)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了一种新的金字塔建造理论，即利用水升装置来提升重石，因此最佳标题是A项“Water Lift Theory: A New View on Pyramid Construction(水举理论：金字塔建设的新视角)”。故选A项。 D A new study by an international team of experts highlights how global methane (甲烷) emissions have been rising rapidly since 2006, particularly since 2020, a trend that’s expected to continue unless we do something very significant very soon. The study authors have then outlined some strategies countries can use to take action, and developed an online tool to help with this. This continual climb in methane emissions is largely due to the continued use of fossil (化石) fuels rather than cleaner options, the researchers say. It’s directly produced by oil, gas, and coal drilling and processing. The increasing release of methane from natural wetlands, caused by a hotter climate, is now also contributing. Methane is produced by rubbish sites, thawing permafrost, and animals too. The researchers, led by physicist and climate specialist Drew Shindell of Duke University in the US, suggest these are minor contributors at the moment — although ones that also need to be closely watched. “Worldwide efforts to limit climate change are rightly focused on carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary driver,” writes the team in their published paper. “However, since humanity has failed to properly address climate change for several decades, keeping warming below agreed goals now requires that we address all major climate pollutants.” There is currently much less methane in our atmosphere than carbon dioxide (CO2), but methane is a stronger greenhouse gas. We know that methane is a major contributor to the warming of the world, trapping heat like CO2 does. It also contributes to the formation of ozone (臭氧) at ground level, increasing the risk of death through respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases. “Rapid reductions in methane emissions this decade are essential to slowing warming in the near future, limiting overshoot by the middle of the century and keeping low-warming carbon budgets within reach,” write the researchers. Warnings from scientists about the state of Earth’s climate path are now reaching a deafening level. Humanity should pay close attention to those warnings and take action. 12. What do we know about methane emissions? A. They are currently a minor concern. B. They have been going up since 2006. C. They have decreased steadily since 2020. D. They are mainly caused by cleaner options. 13. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The continued use of methane emissions. B. Strategies for reducing methane emissions. C. The impact of methane emissions on human health. D. The contributions of sources to methane emissions. 14. Why is reducing methane emissions considered urgent? A. Methane lessens the amount of ozone. B. Methane limits climate change effectively. C. Methane promotes global warming greatly. D. Methane keeps low-warming carbon budgets. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call on people to handle methane emissions. B. To introduce the history of methane emissions. C. To highlight the dangers of methane formation. D. To advocate for the increased use of fossil fuels. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于全球甲烷排放的新研究，强调了甲烷排放量的快速增长及其对环境的影响，并呼吁人们采取行动。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A new study by an international team of experts highlights how global methane (甲烷) emissions have been rising rapidly since 2006, particularly since 2020, a trend that’s expected to continue unless we do something very significant very soon.(一个国际专家小组的一项新研究强调，自2006年以来，特别是自2020年以来，全球甲烷排放量迅速上升，除非我们很快采取一些非常重要的措施，否则这一趋势预计将持续下去。)”可知，甲烷排放量自2006年以来一直在上升。故选B项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“This continual climb in methane emissions is largely due to the continued use of fossil (化石) fuels rather than cleaner options, the researchers say. It’s directly produced by oil, gas, and coal drilling and processing. The increasing release of methane from natural wetlands, caused by a hotter climate, is now also contributing. Methane is produced by rubbish sites, thawing permafrost, and animals too. The researchers, led by physicist and climate specialist Drew Shindell of Duke University in the US, suggest these are minor contributors at the moment — although ones that also need to be closely watched.(研究人员说，甲烷排放量的持续攀升在很大程度上是由于化石燃料的持续使用，而不是更清洁的选择。它是由石油、天然气和煤炭钻探和加工直接产生的。气候变暖导致的自然湿地甲烷释放增加，现在也是原因之一。甲烷是由垃圾场、融化的永久冻土和动物产生的。由美国杜克大学物理学家和气候专家德鲁·辛德尔领导的研究人员认为，目前这些都是次要因素——尽管也需要密切关注。)”可知，本段主要介绍了甲烷排放的来源：持续使用化石燃料；石油、天然气和煤炭的钻探和加工；气候变暖；垃圾场所、融化的永久冻土和动物等。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“We know that methane is a major contributor to the warming of the world, trapping heat like CO2 does.(我们知道甲烷是全球变暖的主要原因，它像二氧化碳一样吸收热量)”可知，甲烷极大地推动了全球变暖，所以减少甲烷排放具有紧迫性。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中作者引用研究人员的话“Rapid reductions in methane emissions this decade are essential to slowing warming in the near future, limiting overshoot by the middle of the century and keeping low-warming carbon budgets within reach (本世纪二十年代甲烷排放量的快速减少对于在不久的将来减缓气候变暖、在本世纪中叶限制温度超调以及使低升温碳预算触手可及至关重要)”和最后一段“Warnings from scientists about the state of Earth’s climate path are now reaching a deafening level. Humanity should pay close attention to those warnings and take action.(科学家们对地球气候变化轨迹的警告现在已经达到了震耳欲聋的程度。人类应该密切关注这些警告并采取行动)”可知，作者强调了减少甲烷排放量的必要性，其目的是呼吁人们处理甲烷排放问题。故选A项。 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。 How to Boost Self Motivation Motivation is what drives you to take positive action. ____16____. The first is self-motivation, which comes from within ourselves. The second is motivation from external sources. How do we get motivated and more importantly, how do we stay motivated? Here are some tips to help us stay motivated. Set goals. ____17____. The first step to achieving a dream is to turn it into a series of goals. A long-term goal will be the ultimate dream — let’s say, setting up a new business. Short-term and medium-term goals will be the stages on the road to the final goal. Avoid Loans. Having some money behind you before you set off on your quest for success is good. Do not, however, try to fund your life with loans and credit cards. Avoid them if you can. Worry over debt is another way of destroying self-motivation. If your dream is to set up a business, keep the business finances separate from your personal finances. Do not, for example, be tempted to use your house as security for any business loans you might be arranging. ____18____. Have self-belief. When you are faced with a failure, don’t just let it defeat you. Remember that you have already overcome other blocks. ____19____. Trusting your capacity for success is a brilliant motivator. You know you can solve the problem facing you because you have done it before. ____20____. You will already have drawn up your plan of action and the timetable for carrying it out. Keep this in mind at all times, and you will continue to be motivated. Your plan itself is a source of self-motivation. Review your progress from time to time to make sure that you are still on course for success. A. Stick to the plan B. Keep your motives in mind C. Motivation comes in two types D. Our dreams are usually a bit unclear E. Believe in yourself and your abilities F. This is another unavoidable cause of stress G. It is important not to worry about losing motivation 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. F 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何激发自我动力，给出了几条实用的建议。 【16题详解】 上文“Motivation is what drives you to take positive action.(动力是驱使你采取积极行动的力量)”引入动力的概念，下文“The first is self-motivation, which comes from within ourselves. The second is motivation from external sources.(第一个是自我激励，它来自于我们自己。第二是来自外部的动力)”介绍了动力的两种类型。C选项“Motivation comes in two types (动力有两种类型)”承上启下，引出了下文的两种动力类型的介绍。故选C。 【17题详解】 根据段首小标题“Set goals.(设定目标)”可知，本段建议先设定目标。D选项“Our dreams are usually a bit unclear. (我们的梦想通常不太清晰)”中“dreams”与标题“goals”相照应，同时提出问题：我们的梦想，即目标通常不太清晰。下文“The first step to achieving a dream is to turn it into a series of goals. A long-term goal will be the ultimate dream — let’s say, setting up a new business. Short-term and medium-term goals will be the stages on the road to the final goal.(实现梦想的第一步是把它变成一系列的目标。一个长期的目标将是最终的梦想——比如说，建立一个新的企业。短期和中期目标将是通往最终目标的道路上的阶段)”给出解决方案，建议把梦想变成一系列的目标，上下文语意连贯。故选D。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Avoid them if you can. Worry over debt is another way of destroying self-motivation.(如果能避免就尽量避免。担心债务是另一种破坏自我动力的方式)”可推知，债务会带来额外的压力和担忧，从而破坏自我动力。设空句上文“Do not, for example, be tempted to use your house as security for any business loans you might be arranging.(例如，不要试图用你的房子作为你可能安排的任何商业贷款的担保)”建议不要用房子去作担保贷款，结合前文可推知，这样做会带来额外的压力，会破坏自我动力，F选项“This is another unavoidable cause of stress. (这是另一个不可避免的压力来源)”承接上文，说明这样做可能导致的结果，上下文语意连贯。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据段首小标题“Have self-belief.(要有自信)”可知，本段强调要自信。E选项“Believe in yourself and your abilities.(相信你自己和你的能力)”直接表达了自信的核心内容，与段落主题紧密相关。同时，该选项也与前文“Remember that you have already overcome other blocks.(记住，你已经克服了其他障碍)”和后文“Trusting your capacity for success is a brilliant motivator.(相信你的成功能力是一个极好的动力)”相呼应，共同强调了自我信念的重要性。故选E。 【20题详解】 设空句是段首小标题。根据下文“You will already have drawn up your plan of action and the timetable for carrying it out. Keep this in mind at all times, and you will continue to be motivated. Your plan itself is a source of self-motivation. Review your progress from time to time to make sure that you are still on course for success.(你们应该已经拟定了行动计划和执行计划的时间表。时刻记住这一点，你就会一直有动力。你的计划本身就是自我激励的源泉。不时回顾你的进步，确保你仍然在成功的道路上)”可知，坚持计划也是保持动力的源泉。故A选项“Stick to the plan.(坚持计划)”是最佳小标题。故选A。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 A spinal injury dashed Adriana Ruano’s dreams of competing in the Olympics as a gymnast.

Lily had always dreamed of becoming a painter, but in her village, most girls were expected to help their families with farming or housework. Despite this, Lily’s parents recognized her talent and supported her passion for art. They saved to buy her brushes and paints, and Lily spent every spare moment practicing her craft. One day, an artist passing through the village noticed Lily’s paintings displayed proudly in her humble home. Impressed by her skill at such a young age, he encouraged Lily to follow her dreams in the city, where opportunities for artists were plentiful. Lily’s heart was filled with hope. With her parents’ blessing and a backpack filled with her artwork, Lily set off on a journey to the busy city. In the city, Lily faced many challenges. She lived in a narrow apartment and took odd jobs to make ends meet. Despite frustrations (挫折) and refusals, Lily persevered. She joined art classes, attended exhibitions, and sought out teachers who could guide her. Her determination caught the eye of a famous gallery owner who saw potential in her unique style. Lily’s first exhibition was a success, selling a few pieces that earned her just enough to cover her rent. As Lily’s fame grew, so did her confidence. She painted scenes inspired by her village, showing its beauty and simplicity. Her paintings began to attract collectors and art enthusiasts from far and wide. Lily’s dream of making a living through art was finally becoming a reality. But success didn’t protect Lily from self-doubt. The pressure to produce more, to meet expectations, weighed heavily on her shoulders. One day, Lily found herself staring at an empty canvas (画布), unable to find inspiration.
