He taught me a lot, and I was pretty good until the accident. We were on the highway. Our little car spun off the road, squealing (发出长而尖的声音) as Dad tried to bring it under control. Then everything was suddenly dark. Th next thing I remembered was being told I wasn’t going to walk again. Mom and I learned to live with it. Dad took it hard. “Sometimes I think he blames himself,” Mom said. “Whenever he sees you in the wheelchair he wants to put it out of his mind.” One day Mr. Evans, an elder in our neighborhood, asked me if I wanted to join a wheelchair basketball team he was starting. When I told Mom, she was all for it, but Dad just looked at me and mumbled (嘟哝) something. I didn’t know what to make of Dad’s reaction, but I knew I wanted t play. I began my first practice on a Friday afternoon. What surprised me most was that I found Dad sitting in the stand and watched us go through our drills. We finished our regular practice, and Mr. Evans motioned for my father to come down to the court. “Jim, I happen to know that you played pro basketball,” Mr. Evans said. “I think you can show the kids some fundamentals.” Dad agreed he would like to give it a try. We practiced the whole summer. Dad came every day. “I thought you were terrible at first,” he said one afternoon. “But I think you can play with Madison (a very good teen wheelchair basketball team) now.” Dad only comes to practice once in a while now, but he comes to the games when they’re on the weekend. I didn’t want to push him because 1 liked him coming to practice, and Mom didn’t mind at all. “Jim, if you were in a wheelchair,” she asked, “do you think you could play as well as Chris?” Dad was on his laptop and looked over the screen at Mom and mumbled something. I figured he was saying that there was no way he could play as well as me in a wheelchair, but I didn’t ask him to repeat it. 24. How might Jim feel about his son’s disability? A. Angry. B. Sympathetic. C. Guilty. D. Confused. 25. What was Jim’s initial reaction to the idea of his son playing wheelchair basketball? A. He was all for it. B. He argued with his wife. C. He chose to consult Mr. Evans. D. He avoided giving a definite answer. 26. What did Mr. Evans ask Jim to do? A. Help the team get better. B. Pick up his old hobbies. C. Lift his son’s spirit. D. Act as a judge for the team. 27. What message does the text convey? A. Experience is better gained through practice. B. Parents learn a lot from educating their children. C. Children cannot succeed without the support of their family. D. Difficulties in life cannot block the path to achieve dreams. C If we jump in the air as high as possible, we can stay off the ground for about half a second. Michael Jordan could stay airborne for almost one second while ski jumpers are able to do that for five to seven seconds as they travel about the length of a football field through the air. So how do they do this? Three major concepts from physics are at play in the ski jump: gravity, lift and drag. Gravity pulls any object in flight down toward the ground and there is nothing athletes can do to lessen its effect. But athletes also interact with the air as they move. It is this interaction that can produce lift, an upwards force produced by air pushing on an object. If the force produced from lift roughly balances the force of gravity, the object can fly. The same interaction also produces drag. It resists the forward motion of any object and slows it down. In the ski jump, jumpers start high up on a slope and then ski downhill to generate speed. Just before they reach the end of the slope, they jump. Once jumpers are in the air, the fun physics begins. They use careful body positioning to maximize lift while / minimizing drag. To do this, they adjust their skis and body nearly parallel to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that generates lift and puts them in the ideal angle of attack that will also maximize lift. As drag reduces the speed of the jumpers, lift decreases and gravity continues to pull on them. They will begin to fall faster and faster until they land. As you tune into the Olympics to wonder at the physical power of the athletes, take a moment to consider also their mastery of the concepts of physics. 28. What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Staying longer in the air. B. Traveling forward slower. C. Falling down the hill faster. D. Jumping higher than average. 29. How can ski jumpers fly in the air according to Paragraph 2? A. They make use of the interaction with air. B. They get more forces of gravity than lift. C. They keep a good balance while skiing. D. They get rid of the effect of gravity. 30. What does Paragraph 3 mainly discuss about the ski jump? A. Its training equipment. B. Its safety guidelines. C. Its major concepts. D. Its basic routine. 31. What may be the best title for the text? A. Ski jumpers flying in the sky B. Falling or flying is your choice C. Physics： as difficult as imagined D. Ski jump booming in the Olympics D Next time you are struggling with the crossword, try putting the kettle on. Drinking a cup of tea can improve creativity, a study suggests. Researchers gave men and women either tea or water and then asked them to complete a word association game, which was used to measure a form of creativity known as convergent thinking (聚合思维). In the game,the participants were given sets of words such as “same, tennis, head” and asked to find a meaningful link between them. The answer, in this case, would be “match”. After analysing the results in a way that ruled out the potential effects of a person’s intelligence and language ability, the researchers, from Peking University in China, found that those who drank the tea performed significantly better in the word association game. The tea drinkers scored an average of 13.89 in the word association game compared with 12. 94 of the water drinkers. The researchers said it was not clear why tea has this beneficial effect. Tea contains caffeine and theanine, which can improve attention, but the 100 participants in the study drank only a small amount of tea — 90ml on average and carried out the tests very soon after consuming it, meaning any effect would have been ignored. “This result showed that the tea drinking event itself — rather than the biological components of tea — played a positive role,” the researchers said. “Previous research has found that people tend to associate tea drinking with a specific set of personality traits, such as being smart, creative, elegant, confident, and stable. It may be that when participants are stimulated (刺激) by tea,the mental representation of a tea drinker is also activated, and they unconsciously think that they should be smarter and more creative,” they added. “Future research should focus on specific mechanisms (机制) and clarify which variables moderate the impact of tea consumption on convergent thinking.” 32. What did the participants have to do in the study? A Pair the words with each other. B. Guess the meaning of the words. C. Find a connection between the words. D. Tell the differences among the words. 33. What helped a participant get a higher score according to the researchers? A. The action of drinking tea itself. B. The participant’s intelligence. C. The participant’s language ability. D. The biological components of tea. 34. What can be inferred from the previous research? A. Drinking tea makes people more active. B. Drinking tea is popular among the youth. C. People tend to drink tea more than before. D. People drinking tea are often thought smart. 35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text? A. Drinking Tea Is Good for Health B. Drinking Tea Is a Popular Trend C. Drinking Tea Makes for Creativity D. Drinking Tea Matters a Lot in Life 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, Why we forget? Remembering things is an important function of our brain — if we can’t recall how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we leave our car keys to how we walk. ___36___ Memory allows the brain to store and recall information when required. Our short-term memory can hold a small amount of information for a short time, while our long-term memory can hold an unlimited amount of information for a long time. Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things? It maybe because we are in a rush or we consider it irrelevant at the time. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. ___37___ It is also possible that memories decline over time. If you don’t perform a task for a long period of time, it can be difficult to recall how to do it. This could be because our memory is full,or that our short-term memory is easier to access. ___38___ Have you ever gone into a room to fetch something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? This is called “The Doorway Effect”. This occurs because we change both the physical and mental environments, moving to a different room and thinking about many different things. So, if you have a mind like a sieve (筛子) ,it could be because you have too much on your mind. But we do need to keep our memory sharp by continually using it. ___39___That’s when we’re at more risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease. However, forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. ___40___ A. That’s something worth remembering! B. Maybe it’s no surprise that sometimes we are forgetful. C. But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down. D. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. E. However, it is widely recognized that short-term memory can be improved. F. We also need some mental relaxation such as listening to some classical music. G. Beyond our 50s, our brains tend to shrink in volume and our memory begins to decline. 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） After the publication of my first two books, I sent my publisher Summer of the Wolves.

But I knew that my family couldn’t afford one, so I decided to have a bedside table with lockable drawers (抽屉), a safe place to keep my private stuff. With my parents, I went to the charity shop where we found a used dark table. It was old and didn’t look cool, but I thought I would paint it to make it look better. After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck to the back. I reached in all the way, and guess what? A scaled (密封的) bag with some papers in it. When I opened the bag, I realized that the papers were official documents. And, wrapped (包装) in them were a bunch of ten and twenty dollar bills! I found a treasure on my birthday! “Is this some kind of joke?” I said aloud. I went ahead and read the papers, and it turned out to be a will (遗嘱). An old lady was leaving her savings for her son and grandchildren. My mind was going crazy. “Was I the luckiest twelve-year-old ever? With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. Who knows?” I began counting. Two thousand dollars! I lay on my bed, starting thinking. What a dilemma (进退两难的窘境)! I wished there were someone I could talk with. Could I keep it and get all kinds of stuff for me and my family? It wouldn’t be too bad for me to keep it…, right? Thoughts ran through my mind. But in fact I really didn’t need someone else to give me the answer. 注意：1.所续写短文词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: I finally made a decision and called my parents into my bedroom. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Though surprised, the shop owner helped find out the family’s telephone number. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 2024-2025学年第一学期高二第一次质量检测 英语试题 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳 选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is the man going to do tonight?

How the book came out. 19. Who encouraged Sally to write a book? A. Her penfriend. B. Her mother. C. Her teacher. 20. Why did Sally's father stop her sending her writing to some publishers? A. He had helped Sally with her writing. B. He thought Sally's writing wasn't good enough. C. He was worried Sally would be disappointed if they weren't interested in it. 【答案】18. C 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】M: Sally Myers is a 13-year-old writer whose first book was published last year. Sally, tell us something about how that book came out. W: Well, I love writing. I'd had a diary for a couple of years. But I never showed people what I wrote. Then, because my pen friend was moving to a new city with her family, just like I'd done the year before, I wrote down some advice for her. She thought it was great and said I should write a little book about it for other kids. So I did. M: Did anybody help you? W: Not with the writing. I only showed it to my dad after it was finished. He thought it was good, but he'd tried to stop me sending it to any publishers. He thought I'd feel disappointed if they didn't like it. So I sent it to just one company to see what they'd say. M: How did you know which company to choose? W: Well, I just emailed the one that already published that sort of book. The next morning my parents got a phone call from them. They wanted to publish mine. M: That must have been amazing. W: Yeah. Mum was really calm on the phone but as soon as she put it down she was like jumping up and down with excitement. She'd told me that this kind of thing just never happened and I'd believed her, so I was too shocked to feel anything at first. Then my dad started worrying about what would happen next. But everything was okay in the end. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A A special place to stay can make a holiday-but also break the bank.

He taught me a lot, and I was pretty good until the accident. We were on the highway. Our little car spun off the road, squealing (发出长而尖的声音) as Dad tried to bring it under control. Then everything was suddenly dark. Th next thing I remembered was being told I wasn’t going to walk again. Mom and I learned to live with it. Dad took it hard. “Sometimes I think he blames himself,” Mom said. “Whenever he sees you in the wheelchair he wants to put it out of his mind.” One day Mr. Evans, an elder in our neighborhood, asked me if I wanted to join a wheelchair basketball team he was starting. When I told Mom, she was all for it, but Dad just looked at me and mumbled (嘟哝) something. I didn’t know what to make of Dad’s reaction, but I knew I wanted t play. I began my first practice on a Friday afternoon. What surprised me most was that I found Dad sitting in the stand and watched us go through our drills. We finished our regular practice, and Mr. Evans motioned for my father to come down to the court. “Jim, I happen to know that you played pro basketball,” Mr. Evans said. “I think you can show the kids some fundamentals.” Dad agreed he would like to give it a try. We practiced the whole summer. Dad came every day. “I thought you were terrible at first,” he said one afternoon. “But I think you can play with Madison (a very good teen wheelchair basketball team) now.” Dad only comes to practice once in a while now, but he comes to the games when they’re on the weekend. I didn’t want to push him because 1 liked him coming to practice, and Mom didn’t mind at all. “Jim, if you were in a wheelchair,” she asked, “do you think you could play as well as Chris?” Dad was on his laptop and looked over the screen at Mom and mumbled something. I figured he was saying that there was no way he could play as well as me in a wheelchair, but I didn’t ask him to repeat it. 24. How might Jim feel about his son’s disability? A. Angry. B. Sympathetic. C. Guilty. D. Confused. 25. What was Jim’s initial reaction to the idea of his son playing wheelchair basketball? A. He was all for it. B. He argued with his wife. C. He chose to consult Mr. Evans. D. He avoided giving a definite answer. 26. What did Mr. Evans ask Jim to do? A. Help the team get better. B. Pick up his old hobbies. C. Lift his son’s spirit. D. Act as a judge for the team. 27. What message does the text convey? A. Experience is better gained through practice. B. Parents learn a lot from educating their children. C. Children cannot succeed without the support of their family. D. Difficulties in life cannot block the path to achieve dreams. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因为一次事故导致无法再行走后，在邻居Evans先生帮助下开始练习轮椅篮球，而父亲也从一开始的难以接受到逐渐支持的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Mom and I learned to live with it. Dad took it hard. ‘Sometimes I think he blames himself,’ Mom said.(妈妈和我学会了接受这个事实。爸爸很难接受。‘有时我觉得他责怪自己，’妈妈说)”可知，爸爸Jim对于儿子的残疾感到内疚，认为是自己的责任。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When I told Mom, she was all for it, but Dad just looked at me and mumbled (嘟哝) something. I didn’t know what to make of Dad’s reaction, but I knew I wanted to play.(当我告诉妈妈时，她完全支持，但爸爸只是看着我，嘟哝了几句。我不知道该如何理解爸爸的反应，但我知道我想打篮球)”可知，当作者告诉父母自己想参加轮椅篮球队时，妈妈完全支持，但爸爸只是嘟哝了几句，没有明确表态，即他避免了给出明确的答案。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“‘Jim, I happen to know that you played pro basketball,’ Mr. Evans said. ‘I think you can show the kids some fundamentals.’(“Jim，我碰巧知道你打过职业篮球，”Evans先生说。“我认为你可以给孩子们展示一些基本功”) ”可知，Evans先生请Jim帮助球队变得更好，给孩子们展示一些篮球基本功。故选A项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，结合最后一段中“I figured he was saying that there was no way he could play as well as me in a wheelchair, but I didn’t ask him to repeat it.(我想他说的是，他坐在轮椅上绝不可能像我一样打得好，但我没有让他重复一遍)”可知，作者通过自己的努力和家人的支持，在轮椅篮球上取得了进步，而父亲也逐渐接受了这一现实。文章传达了生活中的困难并不能阻挡实现梦想的道路的信息。故选D项。 C If we jump in the air as high as possible, we can stay off the ground for about half a second. Michael Jordan could stay airborne for almost one second while ski jumpers are able to do that for five to seven seconds as they travel about the length of a football field through the air. So how do they do this? Three major concepts from physics are at play in the ski jump: gravity, lift and drag. Gravity pulls any object in flight down toward the ground and there is nothing athletes can do to lessen its effect. But athletes also interact with the air as they move. It is this interaction that can produce lift, an upwards force produced by air pushing on an object. If the force produced from lift roughly balances the force of gravity, the object can fly. The same interaction also produces drag. It resists the forward motion of any object and slows it down. In the ski jump, jumpers start high up on a slope and then ski downhill to generate speed. Just before they reach the end of the slope, they jump. Once jumpers are in the air, the fun physics begins. They use careful body positioning to maximize lift while / minimizing drag. To do this, they adjust their skis and body nearly parallel to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that generates lift and puts them in the ideal angle of attack that will also maximize lift. As drag reduces the speed of the jumpers, lift decreases and gravity continues to pull on them. They will begin to fall faster and faster until they land. As you tune into the Olympics to wonder at the physical power of the athletes, take a moment to consider also their mastery of the concepts of physics. 28. What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Staying longer in the air. B. Traveling forward slower. C. Falling down the hill faster. D. Jumping higher than average. 29. How can ski jumpers fly in the air according to Paragraph 2? A. They make use of the interaction with air. B. They get more forces of gravity than lift. C. They keep a good balance while skiing. D. They get rid of the effect of gravity. 30. What does Paragraph 3 mainly discuss about the ski jump? A. Its training equipment. B Its safety guidelines. C. Its major concepts. D. Its basic routine. 31. What may be the best title for the text? A. Ski jumpers flying in the sky B. Falling or flying is your choice C. Physics： as difficult as imagined D. Ski jump booming in the Olympics 【答案】28. A 29. A 30. D 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了滑雪运动员是如何做到在空中停留更长的时间及其基本步骤。 【28题详解】 代词指代题。根据第一段“If we jump in the air as high as possible, we can stay off the ground for about half a second. Michael Jordan could stay airborne for almost one second while ski jumpers are able to do that for five to seven seconds as they travel about the length of a football field through the air. So how do they do this? ”（如果我们跳到尽可能高的空中，我们可以离开地面大约半秒钟。迈克尔·乔丹可以在空中停留将近一秒钟，而滑雪运动员在空中飞行大约一个足球场的长度时，可以停留五到七秒钟。那么他们是如何做到这一点的呢？）可知，this指代的是上文提到的情况，即“迈克尔·乔丹可以在空中停留将近一秒钟，而滑雪运动员在空中飞行大约一个足球场的长度时，可以停留五到七秒钟。”，所以 this指的是迈克尔·乔丹和滑雪运动员在空中比我们停留更长时间。故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But athletes also interact with the air as they move. It is this interaction that can produce lift, an upwards force produced by air pushing on an object. If the force produced from lift roughly balances the force of gravity, the object can fly. ”（但运动员在运动时也会与空气相互作用。正是这种相互作用可以产生升力，即空气推动物体产生的向上的力。如果升力与重力大致平衡，物体就可以飞行。）可知，滑雪运动员是利用与空气的相互作用在空中飞行。故选A项。 【30题详解】 段落大意题。根据第三段“In the ski jump, jumpers start high up on a slope and then ski downhill to generate speed. Just before they reach the end of the slope, they jump. Once jumpers are in the air, the fun physics begins. They use careful body positioning to maximize lift while / minimizing drag. To do this, they adjust their skis and body nearly parallel to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that generates lift and puts them in the ideal angle of attack that will also maximize lift. As drag reduces the speed of the jumpers, lift decreases and gravity continues to pull on them. They will begin to fall faster and faster until they land.”（在跳台滑雪中，滑雪运动员从斜坡上的高处开始，然后滑下山以产生速度。就在他们到达斜坡尽头之前，他们跳了起来。一旦滑雪运动员在空中，有趣的物理开始了。他们使用谨慎的身体定位来最大限度地提升，同时最小化阻力。为了做到这一点，他们调整他们的滑雪板和身体几乎平行于地面，并把他们的滑雪板放在身体外部的V形。这个位置增加了产生升力的表面积，并使它们处于理想的角度，从而使升力最大化。当阻力降低跳投者的速度时，升力降低，重力继续拉着跳投者。它们会越来越快地下落，直到着陆。）可知，这段主要讨论的是跳台滑雪的基本步骤。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Three major concepts from physics are at play in the ski jump: gravity, lift and drag.(在跳台滑雪中有三个主要的物理概念：重力、升力和阻力)”结合文章主要讲述了滑雪运动员是如何在空中飞行及其基本步骤。A选项“跳台滑雪运动员在天空中飞翔”最符合文章标题。故选A项。 D Next time you are struggling with the crossword, try putting the kettle on. Drinking a cup of tea can improve creativity, a study suggests. Researchers gave men and women either tea or water and then asked them to complete a word association game, which was used to measure a form of creativity known as convergent thinking (聚合思维). In the game,the participants were given sets of words such as “same, tennis, head” and asked to find a meaningful link between them. The answer, in this case, would be “match”. After analysing the results in a way that ruled out the potential effects of a person’s intelligence and language ability, the researchers, from Peking University in China, found that those who drank the tea performed significantly better in the word association game. The tea drinkers scored an average of 13.89 in the word association game compared with 12. 94 of the water drinkers. The researchers said it was not clear why tea has this beneficial effect. Tea contains caffeine and theanine, which can improve attention, but the 100 participants in the study drank only a small amount of tea — 90ml on average and carried out the tests very soon after consuming it, meaning any effect would have been ignored. “This result showed that the tea drinking event itself — rather than the biological components of tea — played a positive role,” the researchers said. “Previous research has found that people tend to associate tea drinking with a specific set of personality traits, such as being smart, creative, elegant, confident, and stable. It may be that when participants are stimulated (刺激) by tea,the mental representation of a tea drinker is also activated, and they unconsciously think that they should be smarter and more creative,” they added. “Future research should focus on specific mechanisms (机制) and clarify which variables moderate the impact of tea consumption on convergent thinking.” 32. What did the participants have to do in the study? A. Pair the words with each other. B. Guess the meaning of the words. C. Find a connection between the words. D. Tell the differences among the words. 33. What helped a participant get a higher score according to the researchers? A. The action of drinking tea itself. B. The participant’s intelligence. C. The participant’s language ability. D. The biological components of tea. 34. What can be inferred from the previous research? A. Drinking tea makes people more active. B. Drinking tea is popular among the youth. C. People tend to drink tea more than before. D. People drinking tea are often thought smart. 35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text? A. Drinking Tea Is Good for Health B. Drinking Tea Is a Popular Trend C. Drinking Tea Makes for Creativity D. Drinking Tea Matters a Lot in Life 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项研究表明喝茶可以提高创造力。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Researchers gave men and women either tea or water and then asked them to complete a word association game, which was used to measure a form of creativity known as convergent thinking (聚合思维). (研究人员给男性和女性提供茶或水，然后让他们完成一个词语联想游戏，这个游戏被用来衡量一种被称为聚合思维的创造力形式)”以及第三段中“In the game, the participants were given sets of words such as “same, tennis, head” and asked to find a meaningful link between them. (在游戏中，参与者会得到一组单词，如“same，tennis，head”，并被要求找到它们之间有意义的联系)”可知，在这个研究中，参与者需要在给出的单词之间找到有意义的联系。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“‘This result showed that the tea drinking event itself — rather than the biological components of tea — played a positive role,’ the researchers said. (研究人员表示：‘这一结果表明，喝茶行为本身——而不是茶的生物成分——起到了积极作用’)”可知，根据研究人员的发现，喝茶这个行为本身帮助参与者获得了更高的分数。故选A项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Previous research has found that people tend to associate tea drinking with a specific set of personality traits, such as being smart, creative, elegant, confident, and stable. (先前的研究发现，人们倾向于将喝茶与一系列特定的人格特质联系起来，如聪明、有创造力、优雅、自信和稳定)”可推知，之前的研究发现喝茶的人通常被认为很聪明。故选D项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Drinking a cup of tea can improve creativity, a study suggests. (一项研究表明，喝一杯茶可以提高创造力)”可知，本文主要讲述了一项研究发现喝茶可以提高创造力，所以标题“Drinking Tea Makes for Creativity (喝茶能提高创造力)”最适合作为本文标题。故选C项。 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, Why we forget? Remembering things is an important function of our brain — if we can’t recall how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we leave our car keys to how we walk. ___36___ Memory allows the brain to store and recall information when required. Our short-term memory can hold a small amount of information for a short time, while our long-term memory can hold an unlimited amount of information for a long time. Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things? It maybe because we are in a rush or we consider it irrelevant at the time. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. ___37___ It is also possible that memories decline over time. If you don’t perform a task for a long period of time, it can be difficult to recall how to do it. This could be because our memory is full,or that our short-term memory is easier to access. ___38___ Have you ever gone into a room to fetch something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? This is called “The Doorway Effect”. This occurs because we change both the physical and mental environments, moving to a different room and thinking about many different things. So, if you have a mind like a sieve (筛子) ,it could be because you have too much on your mind. But we do need to keep our memory sharp by continually using it. ___39___That’s when we’re at more risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease. However, forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. ___40___ A. That’s something worth remembering! B. Maybe it’s no surprise that sometimes we are forgetful. C. But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down. D. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. E. However, it is widely recognized that short-term memory can be improved. F. We also need some mental relaxation such as listening to some classical music. G. Beyond our 50s, our brains tend to shrink in volume and our memory begins to decline. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. C 39. G 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人类记忆的工作原理以及为什么会忘记事情，同时也提到了忘记并不总是一件坏事。 【36题详解】 上文“Remembering things is an important function of our brain-if we can’t recall how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we leave our car keys to how we walk.(记忆东西是我们大脑的一个重要功能——如果我们不能回忆起如何做事，我们就无法生存。如果你想一下，我们有很多事情要记住——从我们把车钥匙放在哪里到我们如何走路)”讲述了记忆的重要性以及我们需要记忆的事情之多。B选项“Maybe it’s no surprise that sometimes we are forgetful.(也许我们有时会健忘并不奇怪)”与上文构成转折关系，提出虽然记忆很重要，但有时候我们还是会忘记一些事情，进而引出文章关于“Why we forget?”的讨论，上下文语意衔接自然。故选B项。 【37题详解】 上文“When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later.(当我们储存信息时，我们经常会与其他事物建立联系，这有助于我们以后回忆)”讲述了我们如何储存信息并帮助回忆。D选项“If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget.(如果你没有这些联系，那么就更容易忘记)”与上文构成对比关系，指出如果没有这些联系，我们就更容易忘记信息，句中“these connections”指代上文“connections”，上下文语意连贯。故选D项。 【38题详解】 下文“Have you ever gone into a room to fetch something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? This is called ‘The Doorway Effect’.(你有没有走进一个房间去拿东西，结果到了那里却忘了你想要什么？这被称为‘门口效应’)”举例说明了短期记忆有时也会让我们失望。C选项“But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down.(但有时甚至我们的短期记忆也会让我们失望)”是下文要举例证明的观点，上下文语意连贯。故选C项。 【39题详解】 上文“But we do need to keep our memory sharp by continually using it.(但我们确实需要通过不断地使用它来保持记忆的敏锐)”讲述了我们需要不断使用记忆来保持其敏锐性。G选项“Beyond our 50s, our brains tend to shrink in volume and our memory begins to decline.(过了50岁，我们的大脑体积往往会缩小，记忆力开始下降)”承接上文，进一步说明了随着年龄的增长，我们的记忆力会自然下降，因此需要不断使用来保持。同时，该选项也与下文“That’s when we’re at more risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease.(那时我们患阿尔茨海默病的风险更高)”构成因果关系，指出记忆力下降与患阿尔茨海默病的风险增加之间的关联。上下文语意连贯。故选G项。 【40题详解】 上文“However, forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us.(然而，忘记并不总是一件坏事！如果我们记住周围世界的每一个细节，那就会浪费认知资源)”讲述了忘记的好处，即可以避免浪费认知资源。A选项“That’s something worth remembering!(这是值得记住的！)”总结上文，强调了忘记的好处是值得我们记住的，且该选项能够很好地总结全文。故选A项。 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） After the publication of my first two books, I sent my publisher Summer of the Wolves.

But I knew that my family couldn’t afford one, so I decided to have a bedside table with lockable drawers (抽屉), a safe place to keep my private stuff. With my parents, I went to the charity shop where we found a used dark table. It was old and didn’t look cool, but I thought I would paint it to make it look better. After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck to the back. I reached in all the way, and guess what? A scaled (密封的) bag with some papers in it. When I opened the bag, I realized that the papers were official documents. And, wrapped (包装) in them were a bunch of ten and twenty dollar bills! I found a treasure on my birthday! “Is this some kind of joke?” I said aloud. I went ahead and read the papers, and it turned out to be a will (遗嘱). An old lady was leaving her savings for her son and grandchildren. My mind was going crazy. “Was I the luckiest twelve-year-old ever? With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. Who knows?” I began counting. Two thousand dollars! I lay on my bed, starting thinking. What a dilemma (进退两难的窘境)! I wished there were someone I could talk with. Could I keep it and get all kinds of stuff for me and my family? It wouldn’t be too bad for me to keep it…, right? Thoughts ran through my mind. But in fact I really didn’t need someone else to give me the answer. 注意：1.所续写短文词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: I finally made a decision and called my parents into my bedroom. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Though surprised, the shop owner helped find out the family’s telephone number. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I finally made a decision and called my parents into my bedroom. With a trembling voice, I showed them the money and confessed everything that had happened. They listened quietly, their expressions shifting from shock to concern. "We can't keep this, it should be returned," my mom said firmly. My dad nodded in agreement. I felt a pang of disappointment but also a sense of relief. I knew they were right, and I was proud of myself for making the honest choice. Though surprised, the shop owner helped find out the family’s telephone number. The next day, my parents and I drove to the address provided. When we arrived, we were greeted by an elderly man who seemed confused at first. But as we explained the situation, he hugged us, thanking us repeatedly for our honesty. He insisted on giving me a small reward, a beautiful charm bracelet that had belonged to his mother. It was a symbol of his gratitude and a reminder of the importance of integrity. As we left, I felt a sense of accomplishment and joy that surpassed any material gift, knowing that I had done the right thing. 【解析】 【导语】本文以生日发现意外之财为线索展开，讲述了作者在十二岁生日时，从二手床头柜中发现一笔钱和遗嘱，经过内心挣扎后决定归还的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “我最终做了一个决定，把父母叫进我的卧室。” 可知，第一段可描写作者向父母坦白并决定归还钱财，以及作者的内心感受。 ②由第二段首句内容 “虽然很惊讶，店主帮忙找到了这家人的电话号码。” 可知，第二段可描写作者一家归还钱财后得到的回报以及作者的感悟。 2. 续写线索：叫父母 —— 坦白 —— 父母决定归还 —— 店主帮忙 —— 找到家人 —— 归还钱财 —— 得到回报 —— 感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①坦白：confess/admit ②归还：hug/embrace ③重要性：importance/significance 情绪类 ①失望：disappointment/frustration ②自豪：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型 1] With a trembling voice, I showed them the money and confessed everything that had happened.（使用了with的复合结构） [高分句型 2] But as we explained the situation, he hugged us, thanking us repeatedly for our honesty.（使用了现在分词作伴随状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
