Here’s our pick of some splendid places to visit in the country. Grasmere, Lake District England’s Lake District has such a breadth of beautiful landscapes that visiting just one doesn’t do it justice. Grasmere is perhaps one of the best places to start. Grasmere houses great hotels as well as an award-winning small bookshop, which is for stocking up on maps and mountain literature. Grasmere’s Dove Cottage was home to poet William Wordsworth. Cairngorms National Park, Scotland Scotland’s Cairngorms is arguably the last truly wild place remaining in the UK. In winter, these hills sit beneath meters of wind-swept snow. In summer, the long days and warm sun make it the perfect place for hiking and camping. Adventurers will go hiking into the hills, while those who want to be quieter should go to Loch an Eilein, a ruined castle located on its central island where you can enjoy the scenery on postcards and see red squirrels (松鼠) up close. Hadrian’s Wall, Northumberland The one-time northern frontier of the Roman Empire, Hadrian’s Wall is arguably the greatest historical site in a country blessed with castles and ruins. Stretching from one side of England to the other, its central section is the most arresting, the wall rising and falling across steep hills. Those with more time can follow the 135-kilometer national path, taking in the wall from Newcastle to the Solway Firth. Glens of Antrim, Northern Ireland The nine Glens of Antrim extend down from the Antrim Plateau to the Irish Sea. You can hire a car and follow the winding coast road, built in the 1830s, which covers over 160 kilometers, with views of the hills. The Glens of Antrim has a starring role in a TV series, meaning this part of Northern Ireland has attracted a flood of tourists in recent years. 1. What can visitors do at Grasmere? A Visit Newcastle’s wall. B. Attend the local book fair. C. Explore Wordsworth’s life. D. Observe red squirrels at close range. 2. Which has been made famous through exposure in a TV series? A. Grasmere. B. Cairngorms National Park. C. Hadrian’s Wall. D. Glens of Antrim. 3. Who is the text most likely intended for? A. Beach-goers. B. Castle-admirers. C. Literature-explorers. D. Travel-lovers. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章向旅游爱好者介绍了英国一些值得一游的好地方。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Grasmere, Lake District部分中“Grasmere’s Dove Cottage was home to poet William Wordsworth. (格拉斯米尔的鸽屋是诗人威廉·华兹华斯的故居。)”可知，游客在Grasmere可以探索华兹华斯的生活。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Glens of Antrim, Northern Ireland部分中“The Glens of Antrim has a starring role in a TV series, meaning this part of Northern Ireland has attracted a flood of tourists in recent years.( Glens of Antrim是一部电视剧的主角，这意味着北爱尔兰的这一地区近年来吸引了大量游客。)”可知，Glens of Antrim是通过在电视剧中亮相而成名的。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The UK is an incredibly diverse destination for travelers. Here’s our pick of some splendid places to visit in the country. (对于旅行者来说，英国是一个非常多样化的目的地。这里是我们挑选的一些值得一游的好地方。)”可知，本文向旅游爱好者介绍了英国一些值得一游的好地方。故推知本文是写给旅行爱好者的。故选D项。 B Virginia “Ginger” Hislop, now 105, recently received her master’s degree from Stanford University, 83 years after completing her master ‘ s in education in Stanford in 1941. Originally Hislop desired to be a lawyer, but her father rejected paying law school tuition (学费) because he didn’t support women lawyers. Therefore, Teaching was the next best choice for Hislop with the help of her grandmother and aunt. She enrolled at Stanford in 1936, earning her bachelor’s (学士) degree in education four years later. It’s worth noting that even if she had received her degree, many school systems wouldn’t have hired her as a married woman. Not until the 1964 Civil Rights Act were these “marriage bars” that allowed for schools to not hire wives, and even fire teachers who got married after hiring, completely done away with. Gender (性别) inequality may have put a hold on her career, but they led to her becoming a powerful advocate for all students. Hislop worked to improve educational opportunities for all students, believing everyone should have access to higher education if they desired. Her efforts contributed to transforming Yakima Valley College from a junior college to an independent institution awarding associates, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. This was achieved through her work with local and state legislators and the Community College Act of 1967. Hislop also served on boards of various education and arts-focused organizations. “I didn’t return to teaching, but I feel I put my teaching certificate to good use serving in committees and on boards and trying to improve educational opportunities every chance I got,” Hislop says. At 105, Hislop remains an active community member. Her son-in-law Doug Jensen notes, “The biggest lesson I’ve taken from her is that you never really stop learning. She’s a reader with a strong thirst for knowledge, and at 105 she’s still energetically moving and shaking.” 4. What made Hislop choose teaching? A. Financial difficulties of her family. B. Family responsibilities. C. Her interest in education. D. Her father’s refusal of tuition. 5. What can we know about the society when Hislop was young? A. Women faced many limits on career. B. Lawyer was the best job choice. C. Education was open to everyone. D. Men and women had equal chances. 6. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Hislop’s political ambitions. B. Hislop’s plan to build educational equality. C. Hislop’s desire to change education policies. D. Hislop’s efforts and contribution in education. 7. Which of the following can best describe Hislop? A. Determined and devoted. B. Energetic and humorous. C. Wise but indecisive. D. Courageous but impatient. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了弗吉尼亚·姜·希斯洛普的求学经历和人生故事，她虽然遭遇了性别不平等和职业限制，但仍然积极投身于教育事业，为所有学生争取更好的教育机会，并最终在自己105岁时获得了斯坦福大学的硕士学位。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Originally Hislop desired to be a lawyer, but her father rejected paying law school tuition (学费) because he didn’t support women lawyers. Therefore, Teaching was the next best choice for Hislop with the help of her grandmother and aunt.(起初，希斯洛普想成为一名律师，但她的父亲拒绝支付法学院的学费，因为他不支持女性当律师。因此，在祖母和姑妈的帮助下，教书成为了希斯洛普的下一个最佳选择)”可知，是希斯洛普的父亲拒绝支付法学院的学费，才使得她选择了教书这个行业。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“It’s worth noting that even if she had received her degree, many school systems wouldn’t have hired her as a married woman. Not until the 1964 Civil Rights Act were these “marriage bars” that allowed for schools to not hire wives, and even fire teachers who got married after hiring, completely done away with. Gender (性别) inequality may have put a hold on her career, but they led to her becoming a powerful advocate for all students.(值得注意的是，即使她获得了学位，作为已婚妇女，许多学校系统也不会雇佣她。直到1964年的《民权法案》才完全废除了这些“婚姻限制”，这些限制允许学校不雇佣已婚妇女，甚至解雇婚后被雇佣的教师。性别不平等可能阻碍了她的职业发展，但却使她成为了所有学生的有力支持者)”可知，在希斯洛普年轻的时候，女性在职场上面临着许多限制，特别是已婚女性。故选A项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Hislop worked to improve educational opportunities for all students, believing everyone should have access to higher education if they desired. Her efforts contributed to transforming Yakima Valley College from a junior college to an independent institution awarding associates, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. This was achieved through her work with local and state legislators and the Community College Act of 1967. Hislop also served on boards of various education and arts-focused organizations.(希斯洛普致力于改善所有学生的教育机会，她认为只要愿意，每个人都应该有机会接受高等教育。她的努力有助于将雅基马山谷学院从一所初级学院转变为一个颁发副学士、学士和硕士学位的独立机构。这是通过与地方和州立法者以及1967年的《社区学院法案》的合作实现的。希斯洛普还担任了各种教育和艺术组织董事会的成员)”可知，本段主要讲述了希斯洛普在教育方面的努力和贡献，包括改善教育机会、推动学院转型以及在教育组织中的服务。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I didn’t return to teaching, but I feel I put my teaching certificate to good use serving in committees and on boards and trying to improve educational opportunities every chance I got,” Hislop says. At 105, Hislop remains an active community member. Her son-in-law Doug Jensen notes, “The biggest lesson I’ve taken from her is that you never really stop learning. She’s a reader with a strong thirst for knowledge, and at 105 she’s still energetically moving and shaking.”(“我没有回到教学岗位，但我觉得我在委员会和董事会中很好地利用了我教师资格证，并抓住每一个机会努力改善教育机会，”希斯洛普说。105岁的希斯洛普仍然是社区的一名活跃成员。她的女婿道格·詹森指出：“我从她身上学到的最大教训是，你永远不能真正停止学习。她是一个对知识有强烈渴望的读者，在105岁的时候，她仍然精力充沛地四处奔波。”)”可知，希斯洛普一直致力于改善教育机会，即使到了105岁高龄仍然保持着对知识的渴望和活力，这表现出她的坚定和奉献精神。故选A项。 C Several companies in different fields are hurrying to develop cool and dry face masks to help people in the upcoming unbearable summer heat in Japan. For instance, a sports marketing company in late May started sales of face masks made with a soft stretch material that is used for its swimsuits and wear for track and field athletics. By using the material, the repeatedly washable mask can fit the face with less stress and help prevent splash infections (感染). The product, which costs 935 yen including tax, gained strong popularity, with 20,000 pieces sold on its first online sales day. Similarly, another Japanese company, a maker of equipment for badminton, tennis and other sports, will sell masks made with its “Very Cool” material containing xylitol from early July. Xylitol absorbs heat, responding to sweat, and the material is used for the wear for the Japan badminton national team, as well as professional tennis players. The company plans to sell the mask at 840 yen, tax included. Notably, the length of the string of the quick-drying mask can be adjusted for a better fit. In addition, a fast retailing company plans to start selling face masks this summer featuring a highly breathable and fast-drying material used for its popular underwear products that are cool and dry quickly. Its spokeswoman said the date of the debut of the mask and its price will be announced once they are determined. But one thing is for sure: It won’t cost more than 1,000 yen, including tax. Moreover, a company, specializing in the production and sale of various knit products, has put on sale cloth masks equipped with ice packs. The mask has two pockets to hold four refrigerant (冷却的) packs and can cool the user’s face for one to two hours. The new mask sells for 1,300 yen, including tax, in vending machines and online sales are also available. The mask can be used repeatedly if cooled in a freezer. These innovative approaches by various companies highlight the diverse strategies being employed to combat the intense summer heat while ensuring safety and comfort for the users. 8.

(不同领域的几家公司正忙着开发凉爽干燥的口罩，以帮助人们抵御即将到来的难以忍受的日本夏季炎热。)”结合后文具体介绍了几款适合夏天戴的口罩，由此可知，这篇文章的目的就是介绍一些适合夏天戴的口罩，故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“By using the material, the repeatedly washable mask can fit the face with less stress and help prevent splash infections (感染). (通过使用这种材料，这种可反复清洗的口罩可以减轻面部的压力，并有助于防止飞溅感染。)”可知，体育营销公司生产的口罩的独特之处是可洗涤且对面部压力小，故选C。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“In addition, a fast retailing company plans to start selling face masks this summer featuring a highly breathable and fast-drying material used for its popular underwear products that are cool and dry quickly. (此外，一家快速零售公司计划今年夏天开始销售口罩，这种口罩采用了一种高度透气、快干的材料，用于其广受欢迎的内衣产品，凉爽、干燥快。)”以及后文“its price will be announced once they are determined (价格一旦确定就会公布)”可知，公司计划今年夏天开始销售口罩，说明一旦确定，将宣布口罩的首次亮相日期和价格，由此可推测出debut的意思是“首次亮相”，故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The product, which costs 935 yen including tax, gained strong popularity, with 20,000 pieces sold on its first online sales day.

The mask has two pockets to hold four refrigerant (冷却的) packs and can cool the user’s face for one to two hours. The new mask sells for 1,300 yen, including tax, in vending machines and online sales are also available. (此外，一家专门生产和销售各种针织产品的公司推出了配有冰袋的布口罩。这种口罩有两个口袋，可以装四袋制冷剂，可以给使用者的脸降温一到两个小时。这款新口罩含税售价为1300日元，在自动售货机和网上也可以买到。)”可知，销售各种针织产品的公司的口罩最贵，为1300日元，故选D。 D The China National Space Administration (CNSA) has successfully collected rock and soil samples from the far side of the moon, which will offer scientists an opportunity to study the lesser-understood lunar face unseen from Earth. The samples entered Earth’s atmosphere on Tuesday and landed in northern China. They were secured in a re-entry capsule (太空舱) from a larger spacecraft, called Chang’e-6. The entire mission lasted nearly two months and marked a milestone for lunar research. “Chang’e-6 is the first mission in human history to return samples from the far side of the moon,” Long Xiao, a planetary geologist, tells the media. “This is a major event for scientists worldwide.” Launched on May 3 the Chang’e-6 spacecraft consisted of four modules: an ascender (上升器), an orbiter, a lunar lander and a return capsule. It reached lunar orbit five days later, where it remained for several weeks. On June 1, the lander successfully descended and touched down on the far side of the moon in the South Pole Aitken Basin. Directing the movement of a spacecraft on the far side of the moon is difficult, because the moon blocks radio signals from Earth. To solve this problem, CNSA engineers used two relay satellites, Queqiao and Queqiao-2, launched ahead of this mission, to communicate with the spacecraft. Once on the moon, Chang’e-6 used a robotic arm to collect 4.4 pounds of lunar material. “Collecting samples from the far side is exciting, as we only have very limited information on the geology there,” says Martin Barstow, an astrophysicist at the University of Leicester in England. The collection of rocks launched from the lunar surface in the spacecraft’s ascender on June 3, then united with the orbiter later. It began its earth-bound journey on June 21, and will get to China this week. Scientists hope the lunar soil will offer evidence of the history of the moon, which could also explain that of the Earth. Most lunar basins were formed from asteroid showers 3.9 billion years ago, which also hit the Earth and possibly carried water there. 12. Which carried the lunar soil back to Earth? A. The orbiter. B. The lunar lander. C. The ascender. D. The return capsule. 13. How long did it take the Chang’e-6 to reach the moon? A. Nearly a month. B. About a week. C. 20 days. D. 11 days. 14. What is the function of the relay satellites? A. To prevent the Chang’e-6 spacecraft being harmed. B. To repair the Chang’e-6 spacecraft in case of emergency. C. To provide better signals for the Chang’e-6 spacecraft. D. To better observe the flight of the Chang’e-6 spacecraft. 15. Why is the soil from the far side of the moon important? A. It is the first time to collect lunar soil. B. It may help scientists know more about the moon. C. The soil is very rare on the moon. D. It is made up of at least 100 chemical elements. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述嫦娥六号携带月球背面土壤样品成功返回地球的一大壮举，为科学家们提供了一个研究地球上不太了解的月球表面的机会。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The samples entered Earth’s atmosphere on Tuesday and landed in northern China. They were secured in a re-entry capsule (太空舱) from a larger spacecraft, called Chang’e-6.(这些样本于周二进入地球大气层，降落在中国北部。它们被固定在一个返回舱中，来自一个更大的航天器，名为嫦娥6号)”可知，返回舱携带月球土壤样本返回地球，故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Launched on May 3(于5月3日发射)”和“On June 1, the lander successfully descended and touched down on the far side of the moon in the South Pole Aitken Basin.(6月1日，着陆器成功降落在月球背面的南极-艾特肯盆地)”可知，嫦娥六号于5月3日发射，6月1日成功登陆月球，约一个月时间，故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Directing the movement of a spacecraft on the far side of the moon is difficult, because the moon blocks radio signals from Earth. To solve this problem, CNSA engineers used two relay satellites, Queqiao and Queqiao-2, launched ahead of this mission, to communicate with the spacecraft.(为了解决这个问题，中国航天局的工程师们使用了在这次任务之前发射的两颗中继卫星——鹊桥和鹊桥2号——来与航天器通信)”可知，中继卫星的作用是为嫦娥六号航天器提供更好的信号，故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The China National Space Administration (CNSA) has successfully collected rock and soil samples from the far side of the moon, which will offer scientists an opportunity to study the lesser-understood lunar face unseen from Earth.(中国国家航天局(CNSA)成功地从月球背面采集了岩石和土壤样本，这将为科学家们提供一个研究地球上不太了解的月球表面的机会)”和第四段中“Collecting samples from the far side is exciting, as we only have very limited information on the geology there(从月球背面收集样本是令人兴奋的，因为我们对那里的地质信息了解非常有限)”可知，科学家对于月球背面不太了解，那里的土壤样本非常重要是因为它可能会帮助科学家更多地了解月球，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。 Over the last year, grocery (食品杂货) prices have increased a bit. Mia Moncel, founder of a cooking program, gives tips on how to spend less money at the store. Do online research ___16___. “Just type each item into the search bar on your grocery store’s website,” Moncel says. “It will show you what they have available at that store, and you can compare them in the comfort of your home instead of waiting in line at the grocery store.” Don’t think bulk (大量) deals are better Is it always cheaper to buy in bulk? “Not all the time,” says Moncel. ___17___. For example, if you decide whether to buy that family size box of cookies, or just a regular box, look at the price per kilogram. If the regular box has a lower price per kilogram than the bulk pack, it’s a better deal. Replace pricey ingredients (原料) with cheap ones “Meat usually costs more than vegetables,” says Moncel. ___18___ For example, if a dish calls for a pound of beef, you could reduce the beef by half and then take less expensive ingredients like beans. That way, you’ll still get the taste of the beef without the cost. ___19___ “Before you head to the store, take your shopping list into the kitchen and carefully check whether you have those items. You might not realize you already have some of those things on hand,” says Moncel. Think outside the big-box grocery store Organic eggs, for example, are sometimes cheaper at farmer’s markets. So shop around. “Once you get to know the average prices at each of these stores, decide which one is the best to shop this week,” Moncel says. “___20___.” A. Double-check your kitchen B. Store delicious foods at home C. There are two options open to you D. She suggests paying attention to unit prices E. But cutting back doesn’t mean going without F. It may take more time, but it can save your money G. Compare the prices of foods online before you go shopping 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. E 19. A 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何通过改变购物和烹饪习惯来减少食品杂货的花费。 【16题详解】 标题“Do online research(进行在线研究)”以及““Just type each item into the search bar on your grocery store’s website,” Moncel says.(蒙塞尔说：“只需在杂货店网站搜索栏中键入每件商品。”)”说明购物之前要先在网上搜索相关的商品信息。空处呼应本段的主旨句，并引出下文。G项中的online是标题中该词的复现，说明G项“购物前先在网上比较一下食品的价格”符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 上文“Is it always cheaper to buy in bulk? “Not all the time,” says Moncel.(批量购买总是更便宜吗？蒙塞尔说：“并非总是如此。”)”说明批量购买上商品有时并不便宜。空处承接上文，引出下文中的例子。D项中的She指代前文中的Moncel，“unit prices”和下文中的“look at the price per kilogram”相呼应，给出批量购买时的注意事项，即注意单价。所以D项“她建议注意单价”符合语境。故选D。 【18题详解】 上文““Meat usually costs more than vegetables,” says Moncel.(蒙塞尔说：“肉类通常比蔬菜贵。”)”以及下文“That way, you’ll still get the taste of the beef without the cost.(这样，你仍然可以免费品尝到牛肉的味道)”说明应该少量购买昂贵的原料，多用便宜的原料来代替。空处和前文构成转折关系，并引出下文中“不能完全没有昂贵原料”的话题。所以E项“但削减开支并不意味着放弃”符合语境。故选E。 【19题详解】 下文““Before you head to the store, take your shopping list into the kitchen and carefully check whether you have those items. You might not realize you already have some of those things on hand,” says Moncel.(蒙塞尔说：“在你去商店之前，把你的购物清单拿到厨房，仔细检查你是否有这些东西。你可能没有意识到你手头已经有一些了。”)”说明本段所给建议为应在购物前检查厨房库存。A项“仔细检查你的厨房”适合作本段的主旨句。故选A。 【20题详解】 上文““Once you get to know the average prices at each of these stores, decide which one is the best to shop this week,” Moncel says.(蒙塞尔说：“一旦你了解了这些商店的平均价格，就可以决定本周最好去哪家商店购物。”)”说明购物时要了解不同商店的平均价格后作出决定。空处总结前文，说明这样作的优缺点，即“这样作会浪费时间，但是却会省钱”，所以F项“这可能需要更多的时间，但可以节省你的钱”符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was 17, my rowing coach declared that taking a day off a week was unnecessary.

You’re going to have a baby brother or sister!” I forced a smile, but inside, my heart sank. I couldn’t share their excitement, I was a teenager, enjoying the independence of middle school and my weekends at home. The idea of a new sibling (兄弟姐妹) felt like a disruption (扰乱) to the balance I had grown comfortable with. I didn’t need someone else to compete for my parents’ love and attention. As the weeks passed, my mood worsened. Back at school, my teachers noticed my lack of enthusiasm (热情) and asked me what was wrong. At last, I opened up to my favorite teacher, Mr. Johnson. “Why do they need another child? I’m enough for them,” I said. Mr. Johnson listened patiently, and then gently suggested, “Why don’t you talk to your parents about how you feel? It might help.” The following weekend, my parents sat me down for a heartfelt conversation. They sensed my sadness and wanted to understand what was bothering me. “Why do you need another baby?” I shouted. “I’m already here. Isn’t that enough?” My mom reached for my hand, her eyes soft with understanding. “We love you, This baby doesn’t change that. We’re just adding to our family, not replacing anyone.” Dad nodded, his voice calm and comforting, “You’re our first son, and nothing will ever change that. We want you to be a part of this experience with us, to be an older brother who this baby will look up to.” Their words began to melt the ice in my heart. Slowly, I started to see things from a different viewpoint. Maybe this wasn’t about taking away love, but about adding more love to our family. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I became excited and also helped my parents prepare for the baby brother’s or sister’s arrival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Happily, my baby sister arrived in this world. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I became excited and also helped my parents prepare for the baby brother’s or sister’s arrival. I picked out baby clothes with my mom, painted the nursery with soft colors, and even helped choose a name. I felt a sense of responsibility growing within me, realizing that I would be a role model and protector for this new life. The excitement began to overshadow my initial reservations, and I found myself eagerly anticipating the day when I would meet my little sibling. Happily, my baby sister arrived in this world. The moment I held her in my arms, all my doubts and fears vanished. Her tiny fingers wrapped around mine, and I knew instantly that she was a part of me, just as I was a part of our family. I felt an overwhelming love and protection for her, wanting to shield her from any harm. As days turned into weeks and months, my relationship with my parents deepened as we navigated this new chapter together, and I realized that having a sibling had not taken away any love but had added even more joy and fulfillment to our lives. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了作者在得知父母即将迎来新生儿时的内心挣扎和变化。起初，他担心新生命的到来会分散父母的关注和爱，感到不安和沮丧。然而，在老师的建议下，他与父母进行了坦诚的对话，父母的理解和爱让他逐渐放下戒备。随着新生命的降临，他积极参与到准备工作中，逐渐感受到家庭扩展带来的喜悦和责任。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我变得很兴奋，也帮助我的父母为弟弟或妹妹的到来做准备。”可知，第一段可描写作者和父母为迎接新生命的到来做好的充分准备。 ②由第二段首句内容“很高兴，我的小妹妹来到了这个世界。”可知，第二段可描写作者在妹妹出生后，承担责任一起照顾妹妹，由此增强家庭关系，以及描写作者的最终感悟。 2.续写线索： 迎接新生命的到来做准备——期待新生命的到来——承担责任照顾妹妹——陪伴妹妹共同成长——最终感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①挑选：pick out/select ②.明白：realize/understand ③.消失：vanish/appear 情绪类 ①.激动：excitement/exhilaration ②.愉悦：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1].

Here’s our pick of some splendid places to visit in the country. Grasmere, Lake District England’s Lake District has such a breadth of beautiful landscapes that visiting just one doesn’t do it justice. Grasmere is perhaps one of the best places to start. Grasmere houses great hotels as well as an award-winning small bookshop, which is for stocking up on maps and mountain literature. Grasmere’s Dove Cottage was home to poet William Wordsworth. Cairngorms National Park, Scotland Scotland’s Cairngorms is arguably the last truly wild place remaining in the UK. In winter, these hills sit beneath meters of wind-swept snow. In summer, the long days and warm sun make it the perfect place for hiking and camping. Adventurers will go hiking into the hills, while those who want to be quieter should go to Loch an Eilein, a ruined castle located on its central island where you can enjoy the scenery on postcards and see red squirrels (松鼠) up close. Hadrian’s Wall, Northumberland The one-time northern frontier of the Roman Empire, Hadrian’s Wall is arguably the greatest historical site in a country blessed with castles and ruins. Stretching from one side of England to the other, its central section is the most arresting, the wall rising and falling across steep hills. Those with more time can follow the 135-kilometer national path, taking in the wall from Newcastle to the Solway Firth. Glens of Antrim, Northern Ireland The nine Glens of Antrim extend down from the Antrim Plateau to the Irish Sea. You can hire a car and follow the winding coast road, built in the 1830s, which covers over 160 kilometers, with views of the hills. The Glens of Antrim has a starring role in a TV series, meaning this part of Northern Ireland has attracted a flood of tourists in recent years. 1. What can visitors do at Grasmere? A. Visit Newcastle’s wall. B. Attend the local book fair. C. Explore Wordsworth’s life. D. Observe red squirrels at close range. 2. Which has been made famous through exposure in a TV series? A. Grasmere. B. Cairngorms National Park. C. Hadrian’s Wall. D. Glens of Antrim. 3. Who is the text most likely intended for? A. Beach-goers. B. Castle-admirers. C. Literature-explorers. D. Travel-lovers. B Virginia “Ginger” Hislop, now 105, recently received her master’s degree from Stanford University, 83 years after completing her master ‘ s in education in Stanford in 1941. Originally Hislop desired to be a lawyer, but her father rejected paying law school tuition (学费) because he didn’t support women lawyers. Therefore, Teaching was the next best choice for Hislop with the help of her grandmother and aunt. She enrolled at Stanford in 1936, earning her bachelor’s (学士) degree in education four years later. It’s worth noting that even if she had received her degree, many school systems wouldn’t have hired her as a married woman. Not until the 1964 Civil Rights Act were these “marriage bars” that allowed for schools to not hire wives, and even fire teachers who got married after hiring, completely done away with. Gender (性别) inequality may have put a hold on her career, but they led to her becoming a powerful advocate for all students. Hislop worked to improve educational opportunities for all students, believing everyone should have access to higher education if they desired. Her efforts contributed to transforming Yakima Valley College from a junior college to an independent institution awarding associates, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. This was achieved through her work with local and state legislators and the Community College Act of 1967. Hislop also served on boards of various education and arts-focused organizations. “I didn’t return to teaching, but I feel I put my teaching certificate to good use serving in committees and on boards and trying to improve educational opportunities every chance I got,” Hislop says. At 105, Hislop remains an active community member. Her son-in-law Doug Jensen notes, “The biggest lesson I’ve taken from her is that you never really stop learning. She’s a reader with a strong thirst for knowledge, and at 105 she’s still energetically moving and shaking.” 4. What made Hislop choose teaching? A. Financial difficulties of her family. B. Family responsibilities. C. Her interest in education. D. Her father’s refusal of tuition. 5. What can we know about the society when Hislop was young? A. Women faced many limits on career. B. Lawyer was the best job choice. C. Education was open to everyone. D. Men and women had equal chances. 6. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Hislop’s political ambitions. B. Hislop’s plan to build educational equality. C. Hislop’s desire to change education policies. D. Hislop’s efforts and contribution in education. 7. Which of the following can best describe Hislop? A. Determined and devoted. B. Energetic and humorous. C. Wise but indecisive. D. Courageous but impatient. C Several companies in different fields are hurrying to develop cool and dry face masks to help people in the upcoming unbearable summer heat in Japan. For instance, a sports marketing company in late May started sales of face masks made with a soft stretch material that is used for its swimsuits and wear for track and field athletics. By using the material, the repeatedly washable mask can fit the face with less stress and help prevent splash infections (感染). The product, which costs 935 yen including tax, gained strong popularity, with 20,000 pieces sold on its first online sales day. Similarly, another Japanese company, a maker of equipment for badminton, tennis and other sports, will sell masks made with its “Very Cool” material containing xylitol from early July. Xylitol absorbs heat, responding to sweat, and the material is used for the wear for the Japan badminton national team, as well as professional tennis players. The company plans to sell the mask at 840 yen, tax included. Notably, the length of the string of the quick-drying mask can be adjusted for a better fit. In addition, a fast retailing company plans to start selling face masks this summer featuring a highly breathable and fast-drying material used for its popular underwear products that are cool and dry quickly. Its spokeswoman said the date of the debut of the mask and its price will be announced once they are determined. But one thing is for sure: It won’t cost more than 1,000 yen, including tax. Moreover, a company, specializing in the production and sale of various knit products, has put on sale cloth masks equipped with ice packs. The mask has two pockets to hold four refrigerant (冷却的) packs and can cool the user’s face for one to two hours. The new mask sells for 1,300 yen, including tax, in vending machines and online sales are also available. The mask can be used repeatedly if cooled in a freezer. These innovative approaches by various companies highlight the diverse strategies being employed to combat the intense summer heat while ensuring safety and comfort for the users. 8. What is the purpose of this text? A. To warn people to wear face masks. B. To introduce some face masks fit for summer. C. To find some materials suitable for face masks. D. To refer to some famous companies in Asia. 9. What’s the unique feature of the masks made by the sports marketing company? A. Absorbing heat. B. Breathable and fast-drying. C. Washable and with less stress on the face. D. Cool the user’s face for one hour. 10. What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph 4 mean? A. The first public appearance, B. The research of the material. C. The convenience of the material. D. The lowest price. 11. Which company’s masks are the most costly? A. The sports marketing company. B. The company selling equipment for badminton C. The fast retailing company. D. The company selling various knit products. D The China National Space Administration (CNSA) has successfully collected rock and soil samples from the far side of the moon, which will offer scientists an opportunity to study the lesser-understood lunar face unseen from Earth. The samples entered Earth’s atmosphere on Tuesday and landed in northern China. They were secured in a re-entry capsule (太空舱) from a larger spacecraft, called Chang’e-6. The entire mission lasted nearly two months and marked a milestone for lunar research. “Chang’e-6 is the first mission in human history to return samples from the far side of the moon,” Long Xiao, a planetary geologist, tells the media. “This is a major event for scientists worldwide.” Launched on May 3, the Chang’e-6 spacecraft consisted of four modules: an ascender (上升器), an orbiter, a lunar lander and a return capsule. It reached lunar orbit five days later, where it remained for several weeks. On June 1, the lander successfully descended and touched down on the far side of the moon in the South Pole Aitken Basin. Directing the movement of a spacecraft on the far side of the moon is difficult, because the moon blocks radio signals from Earth. To solve this problem, CNSA engineers used two relay satellites, Queqiao and Queqiao-2, launched ahead of this mission, to communicate with the spacecraft. Once on the moon, Chang’e-6 used a robotic arm to collect 4.4 pounds of lunar material. “Collecting samples from the far side is exciting, as we only have very limited information on the geology there,” says Martin Barstow, an astrophysicist at the University of Leicester in England. The collection of rocks launched from the lunar surface in the spacecraft’s ascender on June 3, then united with the orbiter later. It began its earth-bound journey on June 21, and will get to China this week. Scientists hope the lunar soil will offer evidence of the history of the moon, which could also explain that of the Earth. Most lunar basins were formed from asteroid showers 3.9 billion years ago, which also hit the Earth and possibly carried water there. 12. Which carried the lunar soil back to Earth? A. The orbiter. B. The lunar lander. C. The ascender. D. The return capsule. 13. How long did it take the Chang’e-6 to reach the moon? A. Nearly a month. B. About a week. C. 20 days. D. 11 days. 14. What is the function of the relay satellites? A. To prevent the Chang’e-6 spacecraft being harmed. B. To repair the Chang’e-6 spacecraft in case of emergency. C. To provide better signals for the Chang’e-6 spacecraft. D. To better observe the flight of the Chang’e-6 spacecraft. 15. Why is the soil from the far side of the moon important? A. It is the first time to collect lunar soil. B. It may help scientists know more about the moon. C. The soil is very rare on the moon. D. It is made up of at least 100 chemical elements. 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。 Over the last year, grocery (食品杂货) prices have increased a bit.

Replace pricey ingredients (原料) with cheap ones “Meat usually costs more than vegetables” says Moncel. ___18___ For example, if a dish calls for a pound of beef, you could reduce the beef by half and then take less expensive ingredients like beans. That way, you’ll still get the taste of the beef without the cost. ___19___ “Before you head to the store, take your shopping list into the kitchen and carefully check whether you have those items. You might not realize you already have some of those things on hand,” says Moncel. Think outside the big-box grocery store Organic eggs, for example, are sometimes cheaper at farmer’s markets.

You’re going to have a baby brother or sister!” I forced a smile, but inside, my heart sank. I couldn’t share their excitement, I was a teenager, enjoying the independence of middle school and my weekends at home. The idea of a new sibling (兄弟姐妹) felt like a disruption (扰乱) to the balance I had grown comfortable with. I didn’t need someone else to compete for my parents’ love and attention. As the weeks passed, my mood worsened. Back at school, my teachers noticed my lack of enthusiasm (热情) and asked me what was wrong. At last, I opened up to my favorite teacher, Mr. Johnson. “Why do they need another child? I’m enough for them,” I said. Mr. Johnson listened patiently, and then gently suggested, “Why don’t you talk to your parents about how you feel? It might help.” The following weekend, my parents sat me down for a heartfelt conversation. They sensed my sadness and wanted to understand what was bothering me. “Why do you need another baby?” I shouted. “I’m already here. Isn’t that enough?” My mom reached for my hand, her eyes soft with understanding. “We love you, This baby doesn’t change that. We’re just adding to our family, not replacing anyone.” Dad nodded, his voice calm and comforting, “You’re our first son, and nothing will ever change that. We want you to be a part of this experience with us, to be an older brother who this baby will look up to.” Their words began to melt the ice in my heart. Slowly, I started to see things from a different viewpoint. Maybe this wasn’t about taking away love, but about adding more love to our family. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I became excited and also helped my parents prepare for the baby brother’s or sister’s arrival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Happily, my baby sister arrived in this world. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
