I wished I was an astronaut going up into space, finding new planets and jumping around in a cool space suit. I imagined being a cowboy in the west having gun fights and wearing stylish cowboy boots. I pretended to be a famous footballer, using my skills to score lots of goals. I love being able to play the role of somebody, even just for a short time, to try to realize what it might be like to walk in their shoes. Looking back, I realize that imagination is a wonderful thing. I was able to create entire environments in my head, using nothing more than my brain, and to be able to adapt things in my everyday surroundings to fit the specific story of the day. Growing up with brothers and sisters also helped, as it meant that even bigger stories could be created, combining our ideas and putting our thoughts into action. It also allowed for more varieties in the story, as sometimes I could be the hero while on other occasions, I would be the bad guy. One of my all- time favorite memories as a kid was recreating the Indiana Jones character in my back garden. I played the role of Indiana Jones, with my younger sister as my assistant and my brother as the evil man. We used everything in our garden, from the path to the fence, as part of the storyline to create obstacle that needed to be overcome, and we would keep the story going for hours! My personal favorite was Indiana Jones and the Stolen Easter Eggs, where my brother hid small chocolate eggs around and my sister and I had to find them by answering questions or solving a puzzle. I t was difficult but eventually we found all the eggs and shared them together. 4. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph? A. The author’s early careers. B. The author’s longing for future. C. The author’s childhood adventure. D. The author’s childhood dreams. 5. Why did the author say “Growing up with brothers and sisters also helped”? A. They could defeat the bad guys in school. B. They could act out the bigger stories. C. They could discuss the environments together. D. They could share some joys and sorrows. 6. When playing the Indiana Jones and the Stolen Easter Eggs, __________. A. the author hid chocolate eggs around the garden B. the author’s sister answered questions or solved a puzzle alone C. the author’s brother took up the job of finding the chocolate eggs D. the author would share the chocolate eggs with his siblings finally 7. According to the passage, the author in childhood can be described as __________. A aggressive and brave B. naughty and realistic C. imaginative and energetic D. creative and hard-working (C) Researchers have developed a groundbreaking method of storing and handling valuable biological materials that removes the limitations of refrigerated storage. The novel method has potential applications in healthcare and scientific research. Biological materials that come from human cells, like enzymes, proteins, and antibodies, are crucial to developing new medicines and diagnostic tests. And they’re fragile. Extremely temperature-sensitive, they require a constant temperature during storage, handling, and transportation. If not stored or handled correctly, these materials will be inactive, which can be costly. Most biological materials are stored as liquids or freeze-dried powders and kept at low temperatures for the duration of their shelf life. This is achieved through a complex integrated system of refrigerators and freezers known as the cold chain. This requires a significant investment in equipment and infrastructure, making it expensive to maintain, and makes the cold chain prone to shipping delays, power outages, equipment failure and human error. Inspired from the home medicine cabinet (储藏柜), where medications are stored in the form of liquids, powder-filled capsules, and tablets, researchers at California Polytechnic State University have developed a new storage platform based on the humble tablet that would enable biological materials to be compressed (压缩) into a solid state. Tablets provide advantages to the storage and handling of biomaterials that the cold chain doesn’t. For one thing, they can be stored at room temperature. And, when they’re required, the tablet can be dissolved in water. “Our innovation makes storing and using biomaterials as straightforward as an effervescent tablet (泡腾片). Just drop it into water, mix, and it’s ready to go,” said the researcher of the study. The researchers say their new tablet-based storage and handling method is easy to use and doesn’t require special training, making it suitable for many applications. They also see potential uses beyond just improving the storage and handling of biological materials. By modifying (修改) the tablet coatings, this solid-state storage platform could withstand extreme conditions like heat, humidity, and chemicals. These changes might eventually allow injectable medications, such as insulin, to be taken orally. 8. What is a special requirement to store biological materials? A. Constant temperature maintenance. B. Exposure to various temperatures. C. Periodically freezing and melting. D. Direct contact with air. 9. What is the researchers’ attitude to their storage method? A. Favorable. B. Skeptical. C. Disappointed. D. Grateful. 10. Which word can replace the underlined word “withstand” in the last paragraph? A. Demonstrate. B. Stand. C. Adopt. D. Distinguish. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. Challenges of storing biological materials. B. The making process of effervescent tablets. C. Healthcare applications of biological materials. D. A new tablet storage method of biological materials. (D) Scientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats, or homelands, are disappearing. Traditional migration paths take birds through countries that are not protecting the places for birds to stop, rest and feed. The scientists studied the migration or flight paths of almost 1,500 species. They decided that 91 percent of them passed through dangerous areas. The major danger for migratory birds is development. Buildings and pavements have covered the places where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another. One of the scientists who worked on the study says “Many of these important places have been lost to land reclamation because of urban, industrial and agricultural land expansion”. The problem, according to scientists, is that many of these small birds die along their migration paths because they don’t have a safe place to feed and rest. There is no place to restore their energy for the next part of their journey. Countries in North Africa, Central Asia and those along the coasts of East Asia are having the most difficult time in protecting land. The scientists say these countries do not have enough areas that are safe for birds. One species that doesn’t exist now is the Eskimo curlew. “Our world gets poorer every time we lose a species,” one of the scientists says. The researchers say countries need to work together and come up with safe stopping areas for birds that pass through their boundaries. For example, one country might have preserved safe zones for migrating birds. But a neighbor country might not. A bird might die. One scientist who is not connected with the report tells Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing, more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds. He says small changes, like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of the areas birds would be likely to use, could make a big difference. 12. What mainly caused the disappearing of birds’ habitats? A. The decrease of awareness to protect birds. B. Natural disasters. C. Overuse of land by human beings. D. The rising sea level. 13. What may be the main reason for many birds’ death on the way of migration? A. Tiredness and hunger. B. Beast attack on the ground. C. Hunting of humans. D. The long journey. 14. According to the last two paragraphs, how should we protect the migrating birds? A. By keeping fewer cats or dogs. B. By restoring their destroyed habitats. C. By helping change the birds’ migration paths. D. By preserving the ecological environments on their migration paths. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To call on people to protect the birds’ habitats. B. To analyze the reasons for disappearing of birds’ habitats. C. To offer some solutions to the problem of birds’ habitats. D. To tell us a huge percentage of bird species are in danger. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 The great chef Julia Child is quoted as saying, “The dinner hour is sacred, happy time when everyone should be together and relaxed.” _____16_____ Here are some simple ways to bring joy and peace around the table after a long, busy day.

Every time she goes out or has a party with children, someone will laugh at her, “Ruby, how black you are! Are you originally from Africa?” At first, as Ruby was still small, it was not unusual to hear such words. But later I found that Ruby was unhappy that others called her black. One day when she was six years old, her uncle accidentally said, “Ruby, you will have a great advantage when you go to Africa. At least you will be able to blend(融合) in before others on the skin.” Ruby immediately burst into tears, “I am not black; why do you all say I am black?! I hate you!” Then she locked herself in her bedroom and cried thunderously. It took her uncle a lot of effort to coax(哄) her. But from then on, Ruby would often ask me, “Mom, am I ugly?” She washed her face every morning and evening looked in the mirror repeatedly, and asked me to buy children’s skin care products for her. I can sense that the little girl loves beauty, and I want to make her feel better, so I bought her some children’s skin care products. But one day, I found that she had secretly used my liquid foundation, and I felt that I couldn’t let things get out of hand any more. I need to let her face her own shortcomings and to let her know that there are many imperfections in life, and we need to face and accept. One day after picking up Ruby from school, I took her to the supermarket to buy her favorites. She chose a few snacks aimlessly, then wandered to the fruit section and pointed to some large apples with very smooth surfaces. “Mom, these apples are big and red. Let’s buy these apples!” She requested in a lovely way. 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。 I was about to tell her that they weren’t good when I suddenly came up with an idea. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a few bites of both, she said to me, “Mom, the apple you chose is delicious.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BCBCA 6-10 ABCAA 11-15 CAACB 16-20 BACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024－2025年度高三学年第二次阶段检测 高三学年英语试题 试题总分：150分 答题时间：120分钟 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B 、 C 三个选项中选出最佳选项。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.How much money do the speakers have in all?

I wished I was an astronaut going up into space, finding new planets and jumping around in a cool space suit. I imagined being a cowboy in the west having gun fights and wearing stylish cowboy boots. I pretended to be a famous footballer, using my skills to score lots of goals. I love being able to play the role of somebody, even just for a short time, to try to realize what it might be like to walk in their shoes. Looking back, I realize that imagination is a wonderful thing. I was able to create entire environments in my head, using nothing more than my brain, and to be able to adapt things in my everyday surroundings to fit the specific story of the day. Growing up with brothers and sisters also helped, as it meant that even bigger stories could be created, combining our ideas and putting our thoughts into action. It also allowed for more varieties in the story, as sometimes I could be the hero while on other occasions, I would be the bad guy. One of my all- time favorite memories as a kid was recreating the Indiana Jones character in my back garden. I played the role of Indiana Jones, with my younger sister as my assistant and my brother as the evil man. We used everything in our garden, from the path to the fence, as part of the storyline to create obstacle that needed to be overcome, and we would keep the story going for hours! My personal favorite was Indiana Jones and the Stolen Easter Eggs, where my brother hid small chocolate eggs around and my sister and I had to find them by answering questions or solving a puzzle. I t was difficult but eventually we found all the eggs and shared them together. 4. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph? A. The author’s early careers. B. The author’s longing for future.

The novel method has potential applications in healthcare and scientific research. Biological materials that come from human cells, like enzymes, proteins, and antibodies, are crucial to developing new medicines and diagnostic tests. And they’re fragile. Extremely temperature-sensitive, they require a constant temperature during storage, handling, and transportation. If not stored or handled correctly, these materials will be inactive, which can be costly. Most biological materials are stored as liquids or freeze-dried powders and kept at low temperatures for the duration of their shelf life. This is achieved through a complex integrated system of refrigerators and freezers known as the cold chain. This requires a significant investment in equipment and infrastructure, making it expensive to maintain, and makes the cold chain prone to shipping delays, power outages, equipment failure and human error. Inspired from the home medicine cabinet (储藏柜), where medications are stored in the form of liquids, powder-filled capsules, and tablets, researchers at California Polytechnic State University have developed a new storage platform based on the humble tablet that would enable biological materials to be compressed (压缩) into a solid state. Tablets provide advantages to the storage and handling of biomaterials that the cold chain doesn’t. For one thing, they can be stored at room temperature. And, when they’re required, the tablet can be dissolved in water. “Our innovation makes storing and using biomaterials as straightforward as an effervescent tablet (泡腾片). Just drop it into water, mix, and it’s ready to go,” said the researcher of the study. The researchers say their new tablet-based storage and handling method is easy to use and doesn’t require special training, making it suitable for many applications. They also see potential uses beyond just improving the storage and handling of biological materials. By modifying (修改) the tablet coatings, this solid-state storage platform could withstand extreme conditions like heat, humidity, and chemicals. These changes might eventually allow injectable medications, such as insulin, to be taken orally. 8. What is a special requirement to store biological materials? A. Constant temperature maintenance. B. Exposure to various temperatures. C. Periodically freezing and melting. D. Direct contact with air. 9. What is the researchers’ attitude to their storage method? A. Favorable. B. Skeptical. C. Disappointed. D. Grateful. 10. Which word can replace the underlined word “withstand” in the last paragraph? A. Demonstrate. B. Stand. C. Adopt. D. Distinguish. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. Challenges of storing biological materials. B. The making process of effervescent tablets. C. Healthcare applications of biological materials. D. A new tablet storage method of biological materials. 【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了加州州立理工大学的研究人员通过研究，找到了可以在常温下存储和处理生物材料的方法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“And they’re fragile. Extremely temperature-sensitive, they require a constant temperature during storage, handling, and transportation. If not stored or handled correctly, these materials will be inactive, which can be costly.(而且它们很脆弱。它们对温度极为敏感，在储存、搬运和运输过程中需要恒温。如果储存或处理不当，这些材料将处于非活性状态，这可能会带来高昂的成本)”可知，生物材料对温度极其敏感，在储存、处理和运输过程中需要恒定的环境温度。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““Our innovation makes storing and using biomaterials as straightforward as an effervescent tablet (泡腾片). Just drop it into water, mix, and it’s ready to go,” said the researcher of the study.(该研究的研究人员说：“我们的创新使生物材料的储存和使用变得像泡腾片一样简单。只需将其放入水中，混合，即可使用。”)”以及最后一段“The researchers say their new tablet-based storage and handling method is easy to use and doesn’t require special training, making it suitable for many applications. They also see potential uses beyond just improving the storage and handling of biological materials.(研究人员表示，他们新的基于平板电脑的存储和处理方法易于使用，不需要特殊培训，因此适用于许多应用。他们还看到了除了改善生物材料的储存和处理之外的潜在用途)”可知，研究人员认为储存方法很简单，并易于使用，由此可知，研究人员对他们的储存方法持赞成的态度。故选A。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“By modifying (修改) the tablet coatings, this solid-state storage platform could withstand extreme conditions like heat, humidity, and chemicals.(通过修改平板电脑的涂层，这种固态存储平台可以withstand高温、潮湿和化学物质等极端条件)”可推知，此处表示经过涂层修改后，固态存储平台可以承受极端条件，划线单词表示“承受”，与Stand意义相近。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文以及第一段“Researchers have developed a groundbreaking method of storing and handling valuable biological materials that removes the limitations of refrigerated storage. The novel method has potential applications in healthcare and scientific research.(研究人员开发了一种突破性的储存和处理有价值生物材料的方法，消除了冷藏的局限性。这种新方法在医疗保健和科学研究方面具有潜在的应用前景)”可知，本文主要介绍了加州州立理工大学的研究人员通过研究，找到的一种可以在常温下存储和处理生物材料的方法。故选D。 (D) Scientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats, or homelands, are disappearing. Traditional migration paths take birds through countries that are not protecting the places for birds to stop, rest and feed. The scientists studied the migration or flight paths of almost 1,500 species. They decided that 91 percent of them passed through dangerous areas. The major danger for migratory birds is development. Buildings and pavements have covered the places where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another. One of the scientists who worked on the study says “Many of these important places have been lost to land reclamation because of urban, industrial and agricultural land expansion”. The problem, according to scientists, is that many of these small birds die along their migration paths because they don’t have a safe place to feed and rest. There is no place to restore their energy for the next part of their journey. Countries in North Africa, Central Asia and those along the coasts of East Asia are having the most difficult time in protecting land. The scientists say these countries do not have enough areas that are safe for birds. One species that doesn’t exist now is the Eskimo curlew. “Our world gets poorer every time we lose a species,” one of the scientists says. The researchers say countries need to work together and come up with safe stopping areas for birds that pass through their boundaries. For example, one country might have preserved safe zones for migrating birds. But a neighbor country might not. A bird might die. One scientist who is not connected with the report tells Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing, more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds. He says small changes, like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of the areas birds would be likely to use, could make a big difference. 12. What mainly caused the disappearing of birds’ habitats? A. The decrease of awareness to protect birds. B. Natural disasters. C. Overuse of land by human beings. D. The rising sea level. 13. What may be the main reason for many birds’ death on the way of migration? A. Tiredness and hunger. B. Beast attack on the ground. C. Hunting of humans. D. The long journey. 14. According to the last two paragraphs, how should we protect the migrating birds? A. By keeping fewer cats or dogs. B. By restoring their destroyed habitats. C. By helping change the birds’ migration paths. D. By preserving the ecological environments on their migration paths. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To call on people to protect the birds’ habitats. B To analyze the reasons for disappearing of birds’ habitats. C. To offer some solutions to the problem of birds’ habitats. D. To tell us a huge percentage of bird species are in danger. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了很大一部分鸟类正处于危险之中——它们的栖息地或家园正在消失。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The major danger for migratory birds is development. Buildings and pavements have covered the places where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another.(对候鸟来说，最大的危险是发展。建筑物和人行道覆盖了鸟类从世界的一个地方飞到另一个地方时停下来觅食的地方)”可知，鸟类栖息地消失的主要原因是发展造成的，即人类过度使用土地。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The problem, according to scientists, is that many of these small birds die along their migration paths because they don’t have a safe place to feed and rest. There is no place to restore their energy for the next part of their journey.(根据科学家的说法，问题是许多这些小鸟在迁徙途中死亡，因为它们没有一个安全的地方觅食和休息。没有地方让它们为下一段旅程恢复能量)”可知，许多鸟类在迁徙途中死亡的主要原因可能是疲惫和饥饿。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“One scientist who is not connected with the report tells Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing, more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds.(一位与该报告无关的科学家告诉《洛杉矶时报》，虽然一些栖息地正在发生变化，但可以做更多的工作来确保城市地区对鸟类的安全)”以及最后一段“He says small changes, like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of the areas birds would be likely to use, could make a big difference.(他说，一些小的改变，比如种植更多的本地植物，或者让猫远离鸟类可能使用的地区，可能会产生很大的影响)”推知，要保护好迁徙的动物，就要保护好迁徙途中的生态环境。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats, or homelands, are disappearing.(科学家表示，很大一部分鸟类物种处于危险之中，因为它们的栖息地或家园正在消失)”结合文章主要介绍了很大一部分鸟类正处于危险之中的原因是它们的栖息地或家园正在消失，所以作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁人们保护鸟类的栖息地。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 The great chef Julia Child is quoted as saying, “The dinner hour is sacred, happy time when everyone should be together and relaxed.” _____16_____ Here are some simple ways to bring joy and peace around the table after a long, busy day.

Every time she goes out or has a party with children, someone will laugh at her, “Ruby, how black you are! Are you originally from Africa?” At first, as Ruby was still small, it was not unusual to hear such words. But later I found that Ruby was unhappy that others called her black. One day when she was six years old, her uncle accidentally said, “Ruby, you will have a great advantage when you go to Africa. At least you will be able to blend(融合) in before others on the skin.” Ruby immediately burst into tears, “I am not black; why do you all say I am black?! I hate you!” Then she locked herself in her bedroom and cried thunderously. It took her uncle a lot of effort to coax(哄) her. But from then on, Ruby would often ask me, “Mom, am I ugly?” She washed her face every morning and evening, looked in the mirror repeatedly, and asked me to buy children’s skin care products for her. I can sense that the little girl loves beauty, and I want to make her feel better, so I bought her some children’s skin care products. But one day, I found that she had secretly used my liquid foundation, and I felt that I couldn’t let things get out of hand any more. I need to let her face her own shortcomings and to let her know that there are many imperfections in life, and we need to face and accept. One day after picking up Ruby from school, I took her to the supermarket to buy her favorites. She chose a few snacks aimlessly, then wandered to the fruit section and pointed to some large apples with very smooth surfaces. “Mom, these apples are big and red. Let’s buy these apples!” She requested in a lovely way. 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。 I was about to tell her that they weren’t good when I suddenly came up with an idea. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a few bites of both, she said to me, “Mom, the apple you chose is delicious.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I was about to tell her that they weren’t good when I suddenly came up with an idea. I was determined to teach her a lesson, so I asked her, “Are you sure this will be delicious?” Ruby nodded. “OK, pick some for yourself.” While Ruby was selecting the apples, I walked over to a pile of not-so-pretty but absolutely sweet apples and took a few, too. Seeing this, Ruby laughed at my speckled apples. “Yours are just not delicious,” I said with a smile. Ruby did not believe. When we got home that night, Ruby couldn’t wait to eat the apples. After a few bites of both, she said to me, “Mom, the apple you chose is delicious.” I quickly responded, “You choose beautiful but not delicious, while I choose not beautiful but delicious. Apples have advantages and disadvantages, let alone people. You’re dark, but you’re tall. Think about it. Are you the tallest in your class? ” Ruby listened and thought for a while, suddenly becoming happy, “Mom, that’s true! Everyone has advantages and disadvantages, so I shouldn’t care too much about my black.” Then Ruby began to eat the apple, as if to eat her own shortcomings into the stomach to digest them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为中心展开，主要描写鲁比的皮肤和她父母是一样都是深色的，但是鲁比不喜欢别人说她是黑人，就偷偷用了作者的粉底液，作者认为需要让她面对自己的缺点，让她知道生活中有很多不完美，需要面对和接受。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我正要告诉她它们不好，突然想到了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写作者要教育女儿鲁比的主意是的具体做法。 ②由第二段首句内容“两个都咬了几口后，她对我说：“妈妈，你选的苹果很好吃。””可知，第二段可描写鲁比意识到她选的看起来完美的又大又红的苹果实际上不好吃。 2.续写线索：买好看的苹果——买不好看的苹果——品尝两种苹果——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①朝……走去：walk over to/go towards ②回答：respond/answer ③挑选：select/pick up 情绪类 ①坚定的：determined/committed ②高兴的：happy/glad 【点睛】【高分句型1】While Ruby was selecting the apples, I walked over to a pile of not-so-pretty but absolutely sweet apples and took a few, too.（由While引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】When we got home that night, Ruby couldn’t wait to eat the apples.（由When引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型3】Then Ruby began to eat the apple, as if to eat her own shortcomings into the stomach to digest them.（由as if引导的方式状语从句的省略结构） 1-5 BCBCA 6-10 ABCAA 11-15 CAACB 16-20 BACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
