And my father wanted me to learn how to read and write very simply because then I could translate or read him his letters.” The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway. Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic. When he was twenty, in 1985,Kéré earned a scholarship to study carpentry in Berlin. But he also attended night school and was admitted to Technische Universität Berlin, from which he graduated in 2004 with an advanced degree in architecture. He was still a student when he designed and built the innovative Gando Primary School. Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F. “It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.” In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write. 24. Why did the Pritzker Architecture Prize of 2022 come out as a surprise? A. Because it is the most famous prize. B. Because the winner only designs schools. C. Because Kéré wasn’t first selected as a candidate. D. Because another competitor was more famous. 25. What inspired Kéré’s architecture work? A. His academic training in Berlin. B. Hardship in his early childhood. C. An architectural contest. D. His experience traveling abroad. 26. Which of the following best describes Kéré as an architect? A. Creative and universal. B. Determined and ambitious. C. Caring and practical. D. Devoted and productive. 27. What can be inferred about the schools designed by Kéré? A. They only use traditional materials. B. They are well-lit and cool. C. They need no air-conditioning. D. They are built on oases. C A promotion offering 98 yuan domestic plane tickets is being advertised by Chinese online travel platform LY.COM. While such a low price sounds amazing, there is just one catch: The purchaser is not told where the flight is heading, nor when it will take off. The promotion has become a trending topic on Chinese social media as some people have been attempting to book them ahead of the upcoming May Day holiday. Labeled as a “destination blind box” on the site, tickets are purchased through a rather hassle-less booking procedure, in which passengers provide their travel information, select a departure airport and then pay their 98 yuan. If the randomly chosen date and destination are unsuitable, users may ask for a refund, but once they “lock in” their tickets, there is no going back. “Destination blind box” is now a hot topic on China’s online platforms. “I believe young people are a big target demographic (特定年龄段人口) for this promotion, because they not only enjoy the thrill of the unknown, but also like to show off their lives through these types of commercial activities. Like this one for instance, it doesn’t matter if they finally go or not. Booking a ticket and posting about it on social media can still suggest that one has adventurous and life-loving qualities,” said Fan, a marketing expert who has worked with civil aviation (航空) clients. Many people not only shared the screenshots of tickets they drew, some even came up with a tutorial to teach the booking procedure under the free cancelling policy. However, some others claimed it is too rare to draw a ticket that is ideal. “If it wants to be a profitable activity, the release of the tickets must have been planned ahead and is not as random as it seems. It will not have popular airlines. The marketing campaign may also be aimed at the fast sale of some tickets from less popular airlines that were originally not that expensive. If they sell a large quantity of tickets, the company may still earn a profit even though the price is 98 yuan,” an expert in tourism suggested. 28. Which of the following best explains “catch” underlined in paragraph 1? A. Benefit. B. Disadvantage. C. Mistake. D. Charm. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The origin of “destination blind box”. B. The popularity of “destination blind box”. C. The original purpose of “destination blind box”. D. The purchase introduction to “destination blind box”. 30. Why will “destination blind box” appeal to young people according to Fan? A. It accords with their lifestyle and attitudes. B. It allows them to experience various adventures. C. It satisfies their desire to travel around China. D. It helps them save money on the cost of travel. 31. What can we infer about the promotion from the last paragraph? A. It makes it easy to get an ideal ticket. B. It still needs to be improved. C. It will not bring in any profit. D. It will give a boost to tourism. D When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss. Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences. “It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).” The small study invited 63 young adults to bring one of their favorite songs. The researchers also had the young adults pick one of seven songs that the team considered relaxing and were unfamiliar to the study participants. All the while, the researchers stuck a hot object — similar to the pain of a boiling hot teacup on the participants’ skin — to their left inner forearms. When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs. With millions of songs available, one person’s favorite song is likely not the same as another. After interviewing the participants about the song they brought and their rating of pain, the researchers found people who listened to bittersweet and moving songs felt less pain than when they listened to songs with calming or cheerful themes (主题). “It’s a very cool result,” said lead study author Darius Valevicius, a doctoral student of neurosciences at the University of Montreal. “I think it’s why I myself and probably many people choose to listen to bittersweet or even spiritual music.” 32. Why does the author mention Adele in the first paragraph? A. To reach a conclusion. B. To lead in the topic. C. To offer a suggestion. D. To provide the background. 33. What is Stroman’s attitude to the effect of listening to music? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Unconcerned. 34. What did the participants do in the new study? A. They reported their feelings of pain. B. They interviewed many musicians. C. They made various kinds of teacups. D. They picked out the music they don't like. 35. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. When Is the Best Time to Listen to Music? B. How Do You Create Popular Songs Quickly? C. The Best Way to Reduce Pain Might Be to Write Music D. Certain Types of Music Could Help You Feel Less Pain 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。 It took so long to organize your room and each closet, but it only takes a few days for you to return to your old bad habits.

Her husband died two years ago. She had no children and no relatives that we knew of. She was gentle and kind, and my sister Laurel and I considered her our special friend. One December, Mrs. Miller was ill in hospital. Laurel and I were busy making Christmas presents, and we wondered what to make for Mrs. Miller. We couldn’t bear seeing her come home before Christmas to an empty house with no holiday decorations. Then we lit upon the idea of decorating a small tree that would greet her with lights and cheer. We were wondering how to carry out our plan when the answer appeared. I was in Miss Johnson’s sixth grade class that year, and we decorated a small tree with paper-link chains and ornaments (装饰物) we’d made in art class. It was beautiful. Best of all, it had to be removed from the classroom before Christmas vacation. Miss Johnson said there would be a drawing (抽签) for the tree. We’d each write our name on a piece of paper and put it in the box she had prepared. On the last day of school before vacation, she’d draw a name from the box, and that student could take the tree home. Great! That was exactly what I was longing for! So I wrote my name “Helen Wheeler” neatly on a piece of paper and folded it carefully. As I put it into the box, I whispered to Miss Johnson that I really hoped I’d win the tree because my sister and I wanted to give it to our neighbor who was sick and lonely. Though there were 30 children in the class and each might win the tree, I was somehow certain that I would get it because our cause was good: We wanted to make Mrs. Miller happy. The day before vacation finally arrived. Laurel and I usually walked to and from school, but that day I persuaded Mom to pick us up in her car after school in case I really got the tree. 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。 Paragraph 1: Before school was over, Miss Johnson announced it was time for the drawing. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next evening we welcomed Mrs. Miller back at her door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 深圳市盐田高级中学高二年级月考 英语试卷 考试时间：120分钟 分数：150分 第一部分：单选题（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 1.

And my father wanted me to learn how to read and write very simply because then I could translate or read him his letters.” The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway. Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic. When he was twenty, in 1985,Kéré earned a scholarship to study carpentry in Berlin. But he also attended night school and was admitted to Technische Universität Berlin, from which he graduated in 2004 with an advanced degree in architecture. He was still a student when he designed and built the innovative Gando Primary School. Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F. “It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.” In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write. 24. Why did the Pritzker Architecture Prize of 2022 come out as a surprise? A. Because it is the most famous prize. B. Because the winner only designs schools. C. Because Kéré wasn’t first selected as a candidate. D. Because another competitor was more famous. 25. What inspired Kéré’s architecture work? A. His academic training in Berlin. B. Hardship in his early childhood. C. An architectural contest. D. His experience traveling abroad. 26. Which of the following best describes Kéré as an architect? A. Creative and universal. B. Determined and ambitious. C. Caring and practical. D. Devoted and productive. 27. What can be inferred about the schools designed by Kéré? A. They only use traditional materials. B. They are well-lit and cool. C. They need no air-conditioning. D. They are built on oases. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了Diébédo Francis Kéré在2022年成为第一位获得普利兹克建筑奖的黑人，童年时艰苦的学校条件激励他未来要为孩子们创造良好的学习环境。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway．Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic. (第一位获得普利兹克建筑奖的黑人和其他人一样，对被选为该领域最著名的奖项感到惊讶。许多建筑师曾公开认为，2022年将是大卫·阿贾耶爵士的年度，他最出名的是设计了挪威的诺贝尔和平中心等著名建筑。Kéré，住在柏林，但他的大部分业务都在非洲，一直是——直到现在——很少为人所知，他的建筑包括一些小学和一个医疗诊所。)”可知，业内人士对于Sir David Adjaye这位建筑家获奖呼声颇高，相比之下本文主人公的主要作品都在非洲且名气不大，故选D项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F.‘It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.’ (Kéré的建筑实践灵感来自于他自己在温度超过100华氏度的地区与大约100名其他孩子一起上学的经历。‘里面很热。没有光，而外面阳光充足。我想，总有一天我会做得更好。我在想空间，空间，想着怎样才能感觉好点’)”可知，Kéré童年时经历的艰苦的学校条件激励他未来要为孩子们创造良好的学习环境。故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句“I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better. (我想，总有一天我会做得更好。我在想余地，空间，想着怎样才能感觉好点’)”，以及第五段“In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write. (在他的Gando小学和Naaba Belem Goumma中学的设计中，Kéré借鉴了传统建筑材料，如当地粘土与混凝土混合，并强调阴影，使空间足够明亮，让空气进入，从而减少对空调的需求。他希望这些建筑能唤起一种绿洲的感觉，为许多孩子提供一个快乐、学习读写的地方。)”可知，Kéré 设计的初衷是关心关爱孩子们的学习环境，在设计中，他非常注重因地制宜，使建筑更有实用性，可以看出Kéré关心他人且很务实。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的第一句“In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. (在他的Gando小学和Naaba Belem Goumma中学的设计中，Kéré借鉴了传统建筑材料，如当地粘土与混凝土混合，并强调阴影，使空间足够明亮，让空气进入，从而减少对空调的需求。)”可知，Kéré 设计的学校，采光和通风都良好，故选B项。 C A promotion offering 98 yuan domestic plane tickets is being advertised by Chinese online travel platform LY.COM. While such a low price sounds amazing, there is just one catch: The purchaser is not told where the flight is heading, nor when it will take off. The promotion has become a trending topic on Chinese social media as some people have been attempting to book them ahead of the upcoming May Day holiday. Labeled as a “destination blind box” on the site, tickets are purchased through a rather hassle-less booking procedure, in which passengers provide their travel information, select a departure airport and then pay their 98 yuan. If the randomly chosen date and destination are unsuitable, users may ask for a refund, but once they “lock in” their tickets, there is no going back. “Destination blind box” is now a hot topic on China’s online platforms. “I believe young people are a big target demographic (特定年龄段人口) for this promotion, because they not only enjoy the thrill of the unknown, but also like to show off their lives through these types of commercial activities. Like this one for instance, it doesn’t matter if they finally go or not. Booking a ticket and posting about it on social media can still suggest that one has adventurous and life-loving qualities,” said Fan, a marketing expert who has worked with civil aviation (航空) clients. Many people not only shared the screenshots of tickets they drew, some even came up with a tutorial to teach the booking procedure under the free cancelling policy. However, some others claimed it is too rare to draw a ticket that is ideal. “If it wants to be a profitable activity, the release of the tickets must have been planned ahead and is not as random as it seems. It will not have popular airlines. The marketing campaign may also be aimed at the fast sale of some tickets from less popular airlines that were originally not that expensive. If they sell a large quantity of tickets, the company may still earn a profit even though the price is 98 yuan,” an expert in tourism suggested. 28. Which of the following best explains “catch” underlined in paragraph 1? A. Benefit. B. Disadvantage. C. Mistake. D. Charm. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The origin of “destination blind box”. B. The popularity of “destination blind box”. C. The original purpose of “destination blind box”. D. The purchase introduction to “destination blind box”. 30. Why will “destination blind box” appeal to young people according to Fan? A. It accords with their lifestyle and attitudes. B. It allows them to experience various adventures. C. It satisfies their desire to travel around China. D. It helps them save money on the cost of travel. 31. What can we infer about the promotion from the last paragraph? A. It makes it easy to get an ideal ticket. B. It still needs to be improved. C. It will not bring in any profit. D. It will give a boost to tourism. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了国内一在线旅行平台推出的“目的地盲盒”促销活动及其特点。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“While such a low price sounds amazing,(虽然这么低的价格听起来令人惊讶)”和下文“The purchaser is not told where the flight is heading, nor when it will take off.(购买者没有被告知航班的目的地，也没有被告知航班何时起飞)”以及while可知，前后是转折关系，虽然票价很低，但是购买者没有被告知航班的目的地，也没有被告知航班何时起飞，这是它的一个问题，即劣势，由此可知，划线单词catch意为“劣势”，与B项“Disadvantage.(劣势)”意思一样，故选B。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Labeled as a “destination blind box” on the site, tickets are purchased through a rather hassle-less booking procedure, in which passengers provide their travel information, select a departure airport and then pay their 98 yuan. If the randomly chosen date and destination are unsuitable, users may ask for a refund, but once they “lock in” their tickets, there is no going back.(在网站上被标示为“目的地盲盒”的机票，通过一个相当简便的预订程序购买，乘客提供他们的旅行信息，选择出发机场，然后支付98元。如果随机选择的日期和目的地不合适，用户可以申请退款，但一旦他们“锁定”了机票，就不能更改了)”可知，第二段详细介绍了如何购买这些特价机票的过程，包括购票流程和退款政策等信息，因此这一段主要是关于“目的地盲盒”的购买介绍。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I believe young people are a big target demographic (特定年龄段人口) for this promotion, because they not only enjoy the thrill of the unknown, but also like to show off their lives through these types of commercial activities. Like this one for instance, it doesn’t matter if they finally go or not. Booking a ticket and posting about it on social media can still suggest that one has adventurous and life-loving qualities,(我相信年轻人是这项促销活动的一大目标群体，因为他们不仅享受未知带来的刺激感，还喜欢通过这类商业活动来展示自己的生活。比如说这次活动，他们最终去不去其实无所谓。订一张票并在社交媒体上晒一晒，仍然能显示出一个人具有爱冒险和热爱生活的品质)”可知，Fan认为这项促销活动吸引年轻人是因为他们喜欢未知带来的刺激感，并且喜欢通过此类商业活动展示自己的生活，这符合年轻人的生活方式和态度。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“If it wants to be a profitable activity, the release of the tickets must have been planned ahead and is not as random as it seems. It will not have popular airlines. The marketing campaign may also be aimed at the fast sale of some tickets from less popular airlines that were originally not that expensive. If they sell a large quantity of tickets, the company may still earn a profit even though the price is 98 yuan,(如果这要成为一个有利可图的活动，那么机票的投放肯定是事先计划好的，并不像看上去那么随机。这不会涉及热门的航空公司。这次营销活动也可能旨在快速销售一些原本就不那么昂贵的不热门航空公司的机票。如果他们卖出大量的机票，即便票价是98元，公司仍然可能会赚取利润)”可知，该促销活动还需要改进。故选B。 D When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss. Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences. “It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).” The small study invited 63 young adults to bring one of their favorite songs. The researchers also had the young adults pick one of seven songs that the team considered relaxing and were unfamiliar to the study participants. All the while, the researchers stuck a hot object — similar to the pain of a boiling hot teacup on the participants’ skin — to their left inner forearms. When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs. With millions of songs available, one person’s favorite song is likely not the same as another. After interviewing the participants about the song they brought and their rating of pain, the researchers found people who listened to bittersweet and moving songs felt less pain than when they listened to songs with calming or cheerful themes (主题). “It’s a very cool result,” said lead study author Darius Valevicius, a doctoral student of neurosciences at the University of Montreal. “I think it’s why I myself and probably many people choose to listen to bittersweet or even spiritual music.” 32. Why does the author mention Adele in the first paragraph? A. To reach a conclusion. B. To lead in the topic. C. To offer a suggestion. D. To provide the background. 33. What is Stroman’s attitude to the effect of listening to music? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Unconcerned. 34. What did the participants do in the new study? A. They reported their feelings of pain. B. They interviewed many musicians. C. They made various kinds of teacups. D. They picked out the music they don't like. 35. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. When Is the Best Time to Listen to Music? B. How Do You Create Popular Songs Quickly? C. The Best Way to Reduce Pain Might Be to Write Music D. Certain Types of Music Could Help You Feel Less Pain 【答案】32. B 33. B 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现——某些类型的音乐能够帮助你减轻痛苦。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss.(当阿黛尔在2011年发行单曲《Someone Like You》时，这首苦乐参半的歌曲受到了全球数百万人的欢迎。十多年后，这首歌仍然是她最受欢迎的歌曲之一。她的艺术，以及其他许多掌握了用缓慢而情绪化的节奏让听众感到感动的艺术的人，有一种管理心碎和失去的情感痛苦的方法。)”可推断，作者在第一段提到Adele是为了引出话题，说明她的音乐能够引起听众的情感共鸣，并引出音乐对减轻疼痛的研究。故选B项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).(当你头痛时，音乐不能代替药物，但音乐可以帮助减轻你的疼痛，”安大略省金斯敦皇后大学的教授帕特里克·斯特罗斯曼说。他没有参加这项研究。“与其他药物不同，”他指出，“听音乐没有副作用或风险(只需将音量保持在合理的水平)。”)”可知，Stroman对于听音乐减轻痛苦的效果持“肯定的”态度。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs.(在评价他们的体验时，与听不熟悉的放松歌曲相比，人们更有可能在听自己喜欢的歌曲时感到更少的痛苦)”可知，研究的参与者会在实验中报告他们对于痛苦的感受。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences.(根据发表在《疼痛研究前沿》杂志上一项新研究，听喜欢的歌曲也可以减少人们的疼痛感。研究发现，最有效的止痛药是描述苦乐参半和情感经历的悲伤歌曲。)”可知，某些类型的音乐能够帮助你减轻痛苦。故短文的标题为“某些类型的音乐可以帮助你减轻疼痛”。故选D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。 It took so long to organize your room and each closet, but it only takes a few days for you to return to your old bad habits.

(你很难保持组织有序的原因之一是你在一项任务上花了太多的时间，然后就没有时间去做一天中必须做的其他事情),”可知，不要因在一件事情上追求完美而耽误了其他必做的事情，选项A. Avoid perfection(避免追求完美)符合语境，故选A。 【38题详解】 根据空前Instead of making sure that you do Task A perfectly, make sure that you do a great job of it.(与其把任务A做得完美无缺，不如把它做得刚好)可知，这样能节省出时间做其他必做的事情，选项D. Then give yourself enough time to move on (然后给自己留足够的时间继续做其他事情)符合语境，故选D。 【39题详解】 根据本段主题句Reward yourself for tasks you’ve accomplished(为完成的任务奖励自己) 和空前一句If you want to continue to follow through on staying organized, don’t just do one task and move on(如果你想继续保持有条不紊，不要只完成一项任务就继续前进)可知，当一件任务完成，不要马上进行下一项，此处表转折，F . Instead, give yourself a treat that delights you most(相反，要用能令你感到高兴的方式款待你自己一下)符合语境，故选F。 【40题详解】 根据本段内容，尤其是“Wanting to stay organized doesn’t mean that you have to do everything alone(想要保持井井有条并不意味着你必须独自完成所有的事情)”可知，作者强调合作的重要性，选项C.

Her husband died two years ago. She had no children and no relatives that we knew of. She was gentle and kind, and my sister Laurel and I considered her our special friend. One December, Mrs. Miller was ill in hospital. Laurel and I were busy making Christmas presents, and we wondered what to make for Mrs. Miller. We couldn’t bear seeing her come home before Christmas to an empty house with no holiday decorations. Then we lit upon the idea of decorating a small tree that would greet her with lights and cheer. We were wondering how to carry out our plan when the answer appeared. I was in Miss Johnson’s sixth grade class that year, and we decorated a small tree with paper-link chains and ornaments (装饰物) we’d made in art class. It was beautiful. Best of all, it had to be removed from the classroom before Christmas vacation. Miss Johnson said there would be a drawing (抽签) for the tree. We’d each write our name on a piece of paper and put it in the box she had prepared. On the last day of school before vacation, she’d draw a name from the box, and that student could take the tree home. Great! That was exactly what I was longing for! So I wrote my name “Helen Wheeler” neatly on a piece of paper and folded it carefully. As I put it into the box, I whispered to Miss Johnson that I really hoped I’d win the tree because my sister and I wanted to give it to our neighbor who was sick and lonely. Though there were 30 children in the class and each might win the tree, I was somehow certain that I would get it because our cause was good: We wanted to make Mrs. Miller happy. The day before vacation finally arrived. Laurel and I usually walked to and from school, but that day I persuaded Mom to pick us up in her car after school in case I really got the tree. 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。 Paragraph 1: Before school was over, Miss Johnson announced it was time for the drawing. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next evening we welcomed Mrs. Miller back at her door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One Possible Version: Before school was over, Miss Johnson announced it was time for the drawing. My heart beat fast as Miss Johnson put her hand into the box and drew one folded piece of paper out. Then she unfolded the paper, looked at it and announced. “Helen has won the tree!” I was beside myself with excitement! And I’ll never forget the astonishment on my mother’s face as my sister and I carried the tree to her car. Since Mom had a key to Mrs. Miller’s house, we took the tree straight to her living room and set it up on a table. It looked so beautiful! The next evening we welcomed Mrs. Miller back at her door. She slowly made her way into the house and turned on the lights, greeted by the sparkling Christmas tree. Mrs. Miller was rooted to the spot, looking surprised. Then a sweet smile appeared on her face and tears welled up in her eyes. “Thank you so much.” she said softly. While Laurel and I were excitedly telling the story to our parents, it suddenly dawned on me that Miss Johnson had helped me in a secret way: Though she had announced my name, she never showed anyone what was written on that piece of paper! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了米勒夫人是作者妹妹劳蕾尔和作者小时候的邻居，米勒夫人住院了，于是作者决定在圣诞节的时候给她布置屋子。作者最后用抽到的圣诞树布置了米勒夫人的屋子，米勒夫人非常感动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“放学前，约翰逊小姐宣布抽签时间到了。”可知，第一段可描写作者他们抽到圣诞树的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天晚上，我们在米勒夫人的门口迎接她。”可知，第二段可描写米勒夫人看到圣诞树的反应以及作者反应过来老师秘密帮助了自己。 2.续写线索：宣布抽签——抽到圣诞树——布置圣诞树——米勒夫人回家——米勒夫人感动——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行类 跳动：beat/ pound 打开：unfold/open 出现：appear/show up 情绪类 激动：with excitement /excitedly 惊讶：surprised / astonishment/amazed 【点睛】[高分句型1] Since Mom had a key to Mrs. Miller’s house, we took the tree straight to her living room and set it up on a table.
