W: You’ll probably hate me, but I’m not a big fan of red meat.
M: Don’t worry. The great thing about a pie is that you can make it with lots of things. So instead of steak, you could use chicken.
W: What if we have any vegetarians watching?
M: Then they’ll starve. No, I’m just kidding. You can use different things. In fact, I cooked a pie a few weeks ago for my daughter. That was made of potatoes, cheese and some other green vegetables. Beautiful.
W: So you have already made one just to show us what the end result will be.
M: Yeah, so let me just get it out of the oven. Perfect. So ideally you want it to be golden brown all over. If you leave it in too long, it will burn the edges black.

复杂句式
1. “Zion National Park's Distance Learning Program uses an in-park studio and green screen technology to broadcast live, immersive lessons into classrooms globally.”(锡安国家公园的远程学习项目使用公园内的工作室和绿幕技术向全球的教室直播沉浸式课程。)
分析:该句主语是 “Zion National Park's Distance Learning Program”,谓语是 “uses”,宾语是 “an in-park studio and green screen technology”,“to broadcast live, immersive lessons into classrooms globally” 是目的状语,表示使用工作室和绿幕技术的目的。复杂之处在于使用了较长的名词短语作宾语,以及不定式短语作目的状语,准确地表达了该项目的实施方式和目标。
2. “It includes virtual lessons, immersive park visits, and in-person interactions with rangers.”(它包括虚拟课程、沉浸式的公园参观以及与护林员的面对面互动。)
分析:该句主语是 “It”,指代 “Rangers in the Real World” 这个项目,谓语是 “includes”,宾语是三个并列的名词短语 “virtual lessons”“immersive park visits” 和 “in-person interactions with rangers”。复杂之处在于使用了并列的宾语结构,丰富地阐述了该项目的内容组成,让读者对项目有更全面的了解。
3. “It partners with organizations like the YMCA and the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah to engage underrepresented youth.”(它与像基督教青年会和犹他州派尤特印第安部落这样的组织合作,以吸引未被充分代表的青年。)

【答案】 21. C 22. B 23. B
【导语】本文为一篇应用文,介绍了Zion National Park提供的几种教育项目,包括实地体验和虚拟课程,旨在连接学生与自然,培养他们对自然环境的理解和尊重。
【解析】
21. 细节理解题。根据文中对 “Next Level Zion: Youth Stewardship Program” 的描述 “ This program is designed for middle and high-school-aged students, focusing on real-life skills, career exploration, and environmental concepts. It partners with organizations like the YMCA and the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah to engage underrepresented youth.” 可知,该项目通过与相关组织合作来接触代表性不足的青年,所以在锡安国家公园中专注于与未被充分代表的青年建立联系的项目是 “Next Level Zion: Youth Stewardship Program”。而 “A. Live Streaming Zion” 主要是利用直播技术进行远程教学;“B. Rangers in the Real World” 侧重于将护林员带入课堂开展自然世界的学习之旅;“D. The Forests, Wetlands, and Deserts of Zion” 重点在于让学生了解公园不同生态系统中的动植物。故本题答案选 C。
22. 细节理解题。由文中关于 “Live Streaming Zion” 的内容 “Zion National Park's Distance Learning Program uses an in-park studio and green screen technology to broadcast live, immersive lessons into classrooms globally.” 可知,“Live Streaming Zion” 项目利用公园内的工作室和绿幕技术在全球范围内向教室直播沉浸式课程,所以该项目用于增强学习体验的技术是绿幕技术。A 选项 “Virtual Reality(虚拟现实)”、C 选项 “3D Projection(3D 投影)” 以及 D 选项 “Interactive Whiteboards(互动白板)” 在文中均未提及与该项目相关内容。因此本题答案选 B。
23. 细节理解题。根据对 “Next Level Zion: Youth Stewardship Program” 的介绍 “ This program is designed for middle and high-school-aged students, focusing on real-life skills, career exploration, and environmental concepts. It aims to foster a deep appreciation and understanding of the park and its surrounding environment among youth, and to train them to be park stewards who will play an important role in protecting the natural world.” 可知,该项目的主要目标之一是培养青年成为公园的管理员,让他们在保护自然世界中发挥重要作用,也就是激励青年成为公园守护者。A 选项 “To teach students about geology(教授学生地质学知识)” 只是项目涉及内容的一部分,并非主要目标;C 选项 “To focus on adult education(专注于成人教育)” 与该项目针对中学生的设定不符;D 选项 “To create a comprehensive guide to Zion National Park(创建一个全面的锡安国家公园指南)” 并非该项目的主要目标。所以本题答案选 B。

Each year, around 11 million spellers participate in the National Spelling Bee contest. To reach the national stage, one must win their class, school and regional bees. After winning my regional bee, I focused on the final — I studied thousands of roots and hundreds of thousands of words.
I had lost dozens of bees since I started competing in the 2nd grade. The first word I stumbled over was “Wednesday”, spelling it as “W-E-N-S-D-A-Y”. In 2021, I was knocked out in the third round, and in 2022, I didn’t even qualify. The final year of eligibility (资格) was the 8th grade, so I had only one chance left in 2023.
After reflecting on my spelling journey, I realized I had spent so much time pursuing the’ victory but not finding joy in the process itself. So I let go of the pressure that I had to win. Instead, I focused more on having fun learning the words. I reminded myself why I started in the first place:my passion for words.
Last June, I finally won the championship. Studying for the bee was painstaking at times. With almost 500, 000 words in the dictionary, I organised my weak spots into dozens of Excel sheets.
I now apply this method to projects and assignments in high school. I have an Excel sheet filled with clever rhyming and memory skills to help me remember spellings. So, now, if I need to learn lines for my drama class. I think up a mnemonic (助记符号). In biology, I came across technical terms with Greek and Latin roots I had studied and my skills come in handy for English class.
The spelling bee has taught me how to plan and organise. I’ve learned to be unafraid to take risks and to enjoy learning about the world I can now connect my knowledge of words to science, history, and more. Now that I’m in high school. I value enjoying the experience of learning, instead of pursuing a perfect score on every test.
24.What does the underlined phrase “stumbled over” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Encountered. B.Misspelt. C.Whispered. D.Interrupted.
25.What caused his failing to win before?
A.The young age. B.The lack of willpower.
C.The focus on winning. D.The relaxed attitude to the contest.
26.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.Why he can do well in all school subjects.
B.How winning the contest makes him popular.
C.Why mnemonic is an important tool for study.
D.How he uses his memory skills in high school.
27.What can we learn from the author’s story?
A.Focus on process and not outcome. B.Failure is a reflection of laziness.
C.Seize every chance that comes along. D.Education is the key to success.

A lot of manufactured glass today made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠) can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items, but it doesn’t break down in the environment and will sit in landfills for thousands of years. A team of Chinese scientists aimed to deal with this environmental concern by developing an eco-conscious alternative.
In a study published recently in the journal Science Advances, a team at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Process Engineering describe how they engineered biodegradable glass made from amino acids (氨基酸). That glass would have a smaller impact on the environment and can break down in a few weeks or in several months.
In a test, glass beads made out of amino acids were placed under the skin of mice, and the breakdown of the beads and the skin healing process were observed for 30 days. A diagram from the study shows how the mice’s bodies broke down the beads. In that month, the glass implant degraded beneath the skin, the wound site healed, and fur grew back. “Throughout the experimental period, no mice exhibited any pain-related behavior that may have been caused by the glass implantation, and none of them experienced obvious weight loss,” the researchers wrote in their paper.
Although amino acids do degrade over time in the environment, this biodegradable glass is not as durable as traditional glass, because amino acids can break down quickly in heat. In order to overcome this, the researchers chemically modified the amino acids using the heating- cooling procedure applied in glass manufacturing. This is when materials for the glass are heated to become soft and then rapidly cooled so as to make the glass tougher.
“It’s important to point out that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization,” emphasized Yan Xuehai, a professor involved in the study, in a press release.
28.What is an advantage of the new glass?
A.It can be recycled at a low cost. B.It is produced without pollution.
C.It takes less time to break down. D.It has a wide range of applications.
29.Why did researchers implant glass beads inside mice?
A.To investigate why amino acids are medically useful.
B.To assess whether the glass is biologically harmless.
C.To explore how long it takes for the glass to degrade.
D.To observe if the glass can be melted down in mice’s stomachs.
30.What makes amino acids not as long- lasting as traditional glass?
A.The instability of amino acids.
B.The difficulty of breaking down.
C.The failure of the glass implantation.
D.The challenge of improving the heating- cooling procedure.
31.What is the attitude of Yan Xuehai towards the new glass’s launch on the market?
A.Optimistic. B.Critical.
C.Indifferent. D.Uncertain.

如今很多由沙子和碳酸钠制成的人造玻璃虽可回收再利用,但在环境中难以分解,会在垃圾填埋场留存数千年。中国科学院的一个科学家团队为解决这一环境问题,研发出一种由氨基酸制成的可生物降解玻璃。在近期发表于《科学进展》杂志的一项研究中,该团队介绍了这种玻璃的制造及相关测试情况。他们将氨基酸制成的玻璃珠植入小鼠皮下进行为期 30 天的观察,发现玻璃珠能在皮下降解,伤口愈合且毛发重新生长,小鼠未出现因植入玻璃而导致的疼痛相关行为及明显体重下降情况。不过,这种可生物降解玻璃不如传统玻璃耐用,因为氨基酸受热易分解,为此研究人员通过玻璃制造中的加热 - 冷却程序对氨基酸进行了化学改性。参与研究的教授强调,这种玻璃目前尚处于实验室阶段,离大规模商业化还很远。
重难词汇
manufactured:制造的;reused:再利用;melted down:熔化;landfills:垃圾填埋场;eco-conscious:有环保意识的;alternative:替代品;biodegradable:可生物降解的;implant:植入;degraded:降解;chemically modified:化学改性;commercialization:商业化
复杂句式
01:A lot of manufactured glass today made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠) can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items, but it doesn’t break down in the environment and will sit in landfills for thousands of years.
分析:此句是由 but 连接的并列句。前半句 “A lot of manufactured glass today made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠) can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items” 中,“A lot of manufactured glass” 是主语,“today” 是时间状语,“made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠)” 是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰 “glass”,说明玻璃的制作材料,谓语部分是 “can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items”,表示玻璃可进行的处理方式;后半句 “it doesn’t break down in the environment and will sit in landfills for thousands of years” 中,“it” 指代前面的 “glass”,有两个并列谓语 “doesn’t break down” 和 “will sit”,分别描述玻璃在环境中的两种情况。
翻译:如今很多由沙子和碳酸钠制成的人造玻璃可以被再利用或熔化后回收制成新物品,但它在环境中不会分解,会在垃圾填埋场存在数千年。
02:In a study published recently in the journal Science Advances, a team at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Process Engineering describe how they engineered biodegradable glass made from amino acids (氨基酸).
分析:“In a study published recently in the journal Science Advances” 是地点状语,其中 “published recently in the journal Science Advances” 是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰 “study”,说明该研究发表的情况;“a team at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Process Engineering” 是主语,“describe” 是谓语,“how they engineered biodegradable glass made from amino acids (氨基酸)” 是宾语从句,在该从句中,“they” 是主语,“engineered” 是谓语,“biodegradable glass” 是宾语,“made from amino acids (氨基酸)” 是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰 “glass”。
翻译:在最近发表于《科学进展》杂志的一项研究中,中国科学院过程工程研究所的一个团队描述了他们如何制造由氨基酸制成的可生物降解玻璃。
03:Although amino acids do degrade over time in the environment, this biodegradable glass is not as durable as traditional glass, because amino acids can break down quickly in heat.
分析:此句是一个主从复合句,包含一个让步状语从句和一个原因状语从句。“Although amino acids do degrade over time in the environment” 是让步状语从句,其中 “do” 是助动词,用来加强语气,表示 “确实”;“this biodegradable glass is not as durable as traditional glass” 是主句,“because amino acids can break down quickly in heat” 是原因状语从句,用来解释主句中可生物降解玻璃不如传统玻璃耐用的原因。
翻译:虽然氨基酸在环境中确实会随着时间推移而降解,但这种可生物降解玻璃不如传统玻璃耐用,因为氨基酸在受热时会迅速分解。
04:It’s important to point out that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization.
分析:“It” 是形式主语,真正的主语是 “to point out that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization”,其中 “that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization” 是宾语从句,作 “point out” 的宾语,在该从句中,“this biodegradable glass” 是主语,“is currently in the lab stage” 和 “far from large-scale commercialization” 是并列谓语,分别描述玻璃目前的状态和与大规模商业化的距离。
翻译:需要指出的是,这种可生物降解玻璃目前尚处于实验室阶段,离大规模商业化还很远。
【答案】28.C 29.B 30.A 31.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国科学院的专家团队利用氨基酸研制出一种可降解的环保玻璃。
28.细节理解题。根据第一段中“A lot of manufactured glass today made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠) can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items, but it doesn’t break down in the environment and will sit in landfills for thousands of years. (今天,许多由沙子和碳酸钠制成的人造玻璃可以重复使用或熔化并回收成新的物品,但它不会在环境中分解,并将在垃圾填埋场中存放数千年)”和第二段中“That glass would have a smaller impact on the environment and can break down in a few weeks or in several months. (这种玻璃对环境的影响较小,可以在几周或几个月内分解)”可知,新型玻璃的优点是它需要更少的时间来分解。故选C项。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Throughout the experimental period, no mice exhibited any pain-related behavior that may have been caused by the glass implantation, and none of them experienced obvious weight loss (在整个实验期间,没有小鼠表现出任何可能由玻璃植入引起的疼痛相关行为,也没有小鼠出现明显的体重减轻)”可知,研究人员要在老鼠体内植入玻璃珠是为了评估玻璃在生物学上是否无害。故选B项。
30.推理判断题。根据第四段中“Although amino acids do degrade over time in the environment, this biodegradable glass is not as durable as traditional glass, because amino acids can break down quickly in heat. (尽管氨基酸在环境中会随着时间的推移而降解,但这种可生物降解的玻璃不如传统玻璃耐用,因为氨基酸在高温下会迅速分解。)”可知,这种氨基酸玻璃确实可以随着时间的推移而降解,但是它却不如传统的玻璃那样经久耐用,因为氨基酸在加热下会迅速分解。由此可推知,氨基酸的不稳定性让氨基酸不像传统玻璃那样持久。故选A项。
31.推理判断题。由最后一段中Yan Xuehai说的话“It’s important to point out that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization (需要指出的是,这种可生物降解的玻璃目前正处于实验室阶段,远未大规模商业化)”可知,这种可降解玻璃目前仍在实验室阶段,还远远不能大规模商业化生产,所以Yan Xuehai态度是不确定的。故选D项。

Social relationships are important to human happiness. But once relationships are formed, some will naturally wax and wane (兴衰), with many of us losing touch with friends and family that we were once close with.
Across seven studies, the psychologists examined the attitudes of almost 2,500 participants to reconnecting with lost friendships, the barriers and reasons for doing so, and whether targeted interventions could encourage them to send that first message to an old friend.
The psychologists set out-to measure this hesitance to reconnect by getting participants to rate their willingness to immediately carry out a range of activities, including calling or texting a friend they had lost touch with. They found that participants were as unwilling to reach out to an old fiend as they were to strike up a conversation with a stranger—or even to pickup rubbish.
The top reported barriers included fears that one’s old friend might not want to hear from them, that it would be too awkward after all this time, and feeling guilty. An excuse of being too busy—both the old friend and the participant—was the lowest cited reason for not reaching out.
Notably, the psychologists found that participants believed there were only a few logical reasons to get in touch, with the fiend’s birthday reported as the most convincing. Reconnecting over the memory of a shared experience was the second most reported reason. Participants were least likely to consider getting in touch with an old friend to ask them a favour.
As part of the research, the psychologists tested targeted interventions and they found that practising social connection with current networks by first sending a message to a warm friend was the most successful strategy, boosting reach out rates by over two thirds.
But an expert explained: “Interestingly, despite people telling us that a key barrier to making contact with an old fiend was concerns over how the message might be received, the intervention that we designed to help overcome this anxiety had little effect.” The expert adds: “We know from decades of research that social relationships are a key source of happiness and meaning in our lives.”
32.What is the primary focus of the psychologists research?
A.The benefits of maintaining friendships.
B.The process of forming new friendships.
C.The attitudes towards reconnecting with old friends.
D.The reasons for losing contact with long lost friends.
33.What did the psychologist find regarding people’s willingness to reach out to old friends?
A.Most participants were eager to reconnect.
B.Participants hesitated to contact old friends.
C.Participants preferred to reach out to ask for favors.
D.Being too busy was the main reason for not reaching out.
34.How does the expert think of the result of their intervention on social anxiety?
A.Unsatisfactory. B.Unidentifiable. C.Predictable. D.Far-reaching.
35.What’s the best title for the text?
A.Gaining Happiness Through Social Ties B.The Pathways to Meaningful Connection
C.To Strike up a Conversation with a Stranger D.Reviving Pre-existing Close Friendships

Writing effectively is a skill that anyone can develop and enjoy. Many people approach writing with fear or anxiety, often due to early unpleasant experiences. This fear can make even the simplest writing tasks harder. However, writing is not a particular talent; it’s a form of thinking on paper. 36
Writing is a skill, much like carpentry(木工工艺), with its own set of tools—words. When used correctly, these tools can make any subject accessible to readers. 37 In reality, clear and simple language can make any topic understandable.
Recognize that writing is challenging. Many assume professional writers produce perfect drafts effortlessly, but in truth, writing involves massive rewriting and refining to achieve clarity and freshness. 38 Making clear sentences often takes multiple attempts, but the satisfaction of getting them right is great.
Writing is a skill that can be learned quickly with practice. It’s not a competition; every writer starts from a different point and moves at their own pace. 39 Writing is essentially an interaction between you and your readers. It’s about communicating your thoughts to someone else on paper. Your main goal should be to master this craft, making your writing clear, engaging, and true to your voice.
40 It’s about reaching out to your readers and making a meaningful impact. Whether you’re writing a simple email, a detailed report, or a personal essay, the principles of clear and effective writing remain the same. By focusing on clarity, simplicity, and realness, you can make your writing not only effective but also enjoyable for both you and your readers.
A.Besides, writing is about connection.
B.Writing is a deeply personal process.
C.Anyone who thinks clearly can write clearly.
D.Writing can be a way to influence and inspire others.
E.If you find writing difficult, remember that it is hard by nature.
F.Focus on your own progress rather than comparing yourself with others.
G.A common misunderstanding is that writing about specialized fields requires professional words.
【答案】36.C 37.G 38.E 39.F 40.A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章给写作爱好者介绍了一些写作方面的经验。作者认为写作是每个人都可以培养的技能。
36.上文提到“However, writing is not a particular talent; it’s a form of thinking on paper.(然而,写作并不是一种特殊的才能;这是一种在纸上的思考方式)”,接下来应该是进一步解释这个观点。C. Anyone who thinks clearly can write clearly.(会清晰思考的人,都能写得清楚)进一步说明了清晰思考和清晰写作的关系,符合语境。故选C项。
37.根据上文“ When used correctly, these tools can make any subject accessible to readers.(当使用得当的时候,这些工具可以使读者理解任何主题)”及下文“In reality, clear and simple language can make any topic understandable.(事实上,清晰简单的语言可以让任何话题都能被理解)”可知,空处应该介绍一个常见的误解。G. A common misunderstanding is that writing about specialized fields requires professional words.(一个常见的误解是,写专业领域的文章需要专业词汇)符合语境。故选G项。
38.根据上文“Recognize that writing is challenging. Many assume professional writers produce perfect drafts effortlessly, but in truth, writing involves massive rewriting and refining to achieve clarity and freshness.(认识到写作是具有挑战性的。许多人认为专业作家可以毫不费力地写出完美的草稿,但事实上,写作需要大量的重写和完善,以达到清晰和新鲜)”可知,作者认为作家写作也是需要付出的,不是毫不费力的,由此可知,E. If you find writing difficult, remember that it is hard by nature.(如果你觉得写作很难,记住写作本来就很难)符合语境。故选E项。
39.根据上文“It’s not a competition; every writer starts from a different point and moves at their own pace.(这不是竞争;每个作家都从不同的角度出发,以自己的节奏前进)”及下文“Writing is essentially an interaction between you and your readers.(写作本质上是你和读者之间的互动)”可知,这里作者表示,写作是作者和读者之间的交流,不用和别的作家去比较,按照自己的节奏速度去掌握写作技巧,去练习。由此可知,F. Focus on your own progress rather than comparing yourself with others.(关注自己的进步,而不是拿自己和别人比较)符合语境。故选F项。
40.根据下文“It’s about reaching out to your readers and making a meaningful impact. Whether you’re writing a simple email, a detailed report, or a personal essay, the principles of clear and effective writing remain the same. By focusing on clarity, simplicity, and realness, you can make your writing not only effective but also enjoyable for both you and your readers.(写作的意义在于接触你的读者并产生有意义的影响。无论你是在写一封简单的电子邮件,一份详细的报告,还是一篇个人论文,清晰有效的写作原则都是一样的。通过专注于清晰、简单和真实,你可以使你的写作不仅有效,而且对你和你的读者都很有趣)”可知,本段主要是围绕连接性展开的,由此可知,A. Besides, writing is about connection.( 此外,写作是关于联系的)作为本段首句是符合下文的,短语reach out to somebody可表示“主动联系某人”。故选A项。
第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)

48.考查名词词义辨析。句意:然而,成千上万张翡翠绿色和红宝石红色弧线的增强照片做出了虚假的承诺。A. promises承诺;B. decisions决定;C. statements陈述;D. arrangements安排。根据上文“enhanced photos of emerald-green and ruby-red arcs make false”可知,因为旅游的照片都是增强过的,所以是虚假的承诺。故选A。

阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
With its striking coloration, the giant panda is an instantly recognizable species. A 56 (hand) of giant pandas that aren’t black-and-white, however, do exist. These exceptional creatures with brown-and-white fur inhabit a single mountain range in China.
The first brown panda 57 (know) to science was a female named Dandan. A local ranger found the sick bear in Foping County in Shaanxi Province’s Qinling Mountains in March 1985. The panda 58 (hold)in captivity (圈养) until her death in 2000.
Since Dandan’s discovery decades ago, there have been 11 reported sightings documented through official news sources or personal 59 (account).
A better understanding of this unique coloration could help inform the brown-and-white pandas in captivity. To understand 60 lies behind the trait (特征), researchers studied Qizai, a male brown panda rescued as a cub in 2009 from Foping National Nature Reserve in Hanzhong. He is 61 (current) the only brown panda in captivity.
Through strict genetic studies conducted on pandas both in 62 wild and in captivity, researchers found that pandas with brown-and-white coats are the result of natural variation, rather 63 a sign of inbreeding (近亲繁殖) in a decreasing population.
The discovery of the study not only sheds light on the genetic mystery of these pandas, but also offers hope for future conservation efforts. By deepening our understanding of their unique coloration, scientists are eager 64 (apply) this knowledge to conservation strategies and potential breeding programs aimed at 65 (preserve) this rare genetic trait.
【答案】
56.handful 57.known 58.was held 59.accounts 60.what 61.currently 62.the 63.than 64.to apply 65.preserving

56.考查固定短语。句意:然而,确实存在少数不是黑白相间的大熊猫。固定短语:a handful of,意为“少数的”,符合句意。故填handful。
57.考查非谓语动词。句意:科学界已知的第一只棕色大熊猫是雌性大熊猫丹丹。非谓语动词担当后置定语,被修饰词“panda”和动词“know”之间是被动关系,用过去分词形式。故填known。
58.考查时态和语态。句意:这只大熊猫被圈养起来,直到2000年去世。这里为本句谓语动词,根据时间状语“in 2000”可知,本句时态为一般过去时;主语为“the panda”,单数,和动词“hold”之间为被动关系,所以用被动语态。故填was held。
59.考查名词的数。句意:自几十年前丹丹被发现以来,已有11次目击事件通过官方新闻来源或个人报道记录。根据句意以及上文的“sources”可知,空处为名词的复数形式。故填accounts。

61.考查副词。句意:他目前是唯一一只被圈养的棕色大熊猫。分析句子成分可知,空处为副词形式担当本句的状语。故填currently。
62.考查冠词。句意:通过对野生和圈养大熊猫进行严格的遗传研究,研究人员发现,棕白相间的大熊猫是自然变异的结果,而不是数量减少的种群中近亲繁殖的迹象。修饰“wild”用定冠词“the”,构成固定搭配:in the wild,意为“在野外”,符合句意。故填the。
63.考查固定短语。句意:通过对野生和圈养大熊猫进行严格的遗传研究,研究人员发现,棕白相间的大熊猫是自然变异的结果,而不是数量减少的种群中近亲繁殖的迹象。固定搭配:rather than,意为“而不是”,符合句意。故填than。
64.考查非谓语动词。句意:通过加深对它们独特毛色的理解,科学家们渴望将这种知识应用于保护策略和潜在的繁殖计划,以保存这一罕见的遗传特征。非谓语动词担当状语,构成固定搭配:be eager to do…,意为“渴望做某事”,不定式作原因状语。故填to apply。
65.考查非谓语动词。句意:通过加深对它们独特毛色的理解,科学家们渴望将这种知识应用于保护策略和潜在的繁殖计划,以保存这一罕见的遗传特征。非谓语动词担当介词的宾语,用动名词。故填preserving。

【来源】河南省部分学校2024-2025学年高三上学期10月大联考英语试题
I was born into a poor family from a small Indian village where we had no college, or university. After completing Grade Ten, my father came to me with some bad news. . .
“Son, I’m sorry. I won’t be able to pay any more of your educational expenses.”
I was the fourth and youngest son in the family. The family expenses had become too much for my father’s small army wage to handle. Not having money for my education worried me. I laid my head down that night, wondering what my future held in store. The words of my teacher came to me, “Nawaz, you must try and find another way for your future. Look at me! I grew up as a poor boy from the village. I struggled, I worked hard and I went to the city. You must find a way and never give up. ”
I heard Karachi was a city of opportunity for poor people due to lots of small jobs. I decided to move to the city to get a job, so I could save up and pay for my education.
On a busy street not far from where I stayed, I found a job in a small restaurant. I waited on tables, cleaned floors, and washed dishes. I slowly saved enough money for my college admission fee. After that, I studied by day. By night and on weekends I worked at the restaurant. I was tired but determined to complete my education.
One day Mr. Jatin started asking me questions. “Where are you from?” “What are you doing here?” “Why are you working here?” He came to the restaurant for a cup of tea regularly in the afternoon, so the waiters were all familiar with him. I politely answered his questions about my situation.
“Mmm, I see,” Mr. Jatin nodded. “I’ve watched you work hard. And I’d like to pay for all your college fees. You can quit your job and focus on your studies. ”
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 couldn’t believe what I had just heard.

Having got a well- paid job after graduation, I realized it was time to pay back.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I couldn’t believe what I had just heard. My heart was filled with an overwhelming sense of joy and profound gratitude. I stood there, stunned for a moment, my eyes wide with astonishment. I thanked Mr. Jatin repeatedly, unable to contain my excitement. With his support, I could finally focus entirely on my studies without the burden of financial worries. I worked even harder, determined not to disappoint him and to make the most of this precious opportunity.
Having got a well-paid job after graduation, I realized it was time to pay back. I expressed my appreciation in the most heartfelt way possible, emphasizing how his kindness had transformed my life. I decided to help other students in need, just as he had helped me. I set up a scholarship fund to support those who struggled like I once did. I was acutely aware of the immense value of a helping hand in times of difficulty and was eager to pass on the kindness and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Each year, around 11 million spellers participate in the National Spelling Bee contest. To reach the national stage, one must win their class, school and regional bees. After winning my regional bee, I focused on the final — I studied thousands of roots and hundreds of thousands of words.
I had lost dozens of bees since I started competing in the 2nd grade. The first word I stumbled over was “Wednesday”, spelling it as “W-E-N-S-D-A-Y”. In 2021, I was knocked out in the third round, and in 2022, I didn’t even qualify. The final year of eligibility (资格) was the 8th grade, so I had only one chance left in 2023.
After reflecting on my spelling journey, I realized I had spent so much time pursuing the’ victory but not finding joy in the process itself. So I let go of the pressure that I had to win. Instead, I focused more on having fun learning the words. I reminded myself why I started in the first place:my passion for words.
Last June, I finally won the championship. Studying for the bee was painstaking at times. With almost 500, 000 words in the dictionary, I organised my weak spots into dozens of Excel sheets.
I now apply this method to projects and assignments in high school. I have an Excel sheet filled with clever rhyming and memory skills to help me remember spellings. So, now, if I need to learn lines for my drama class. I think up a mnemonic (助记符号). In biology, I came across technical terms with Greek and Latin roots I had studied and my skills come in handy for English class.
The spelling bee has taught me how to plan and organise. I’ve learned to be unafraid to take risks and to enjoy learning about the world I can now connect my knowledge of words to science, history, and more. Now that I’m in high school. I value enjoying the experience of learning, instead of pursuing a perfect score on every test.
24.What does the underlined phrase “stumbled over” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Encountered. B.Misspelt. C.Whispered. D.Interrupted.
25.What caused his failing to win before?
A.The young age. B.The lack of willpower.
C.The focus on winning. D.The relaxed attitude to the contest.
26.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.Why he can do well in all school subjects.
B.How winning the contest makes him popular.
C.Why mnemonic is an important tool for study.
D.How he uses his memory skills in high school.
27.What can we learn from the author’s story?
A.Focus on process and not outcome. B.Failure is a reflection of laziness.
C.Seize every chance that comes along. D.Education is the key to success.

eligibility:资格;
stumbled over:在…… 上犯错,被…… 绊倒,此处指拼错;
knocked out:淘汰;
qualify:取得资格,达标;
pursuing:追求;
painstaking:艰苦的,费力的;
mnemonic:助记符号;
come in handy:派上用场
复杂句式
01:“To reach the national stage, one must win their class, school and regional bees.”
分析:此句为不定式作目的状语,“To reach the national stage” 表明目的,即要登上全国比赛的舞台,主句 “one must win their class, school and regional bees” 阐述要达成此目的需要做到的事情,即必须赢得班级、学校和地区的拼字比赛。
翻译:要登上全国比赛的舞台,必须先赢得班级、学校和地区的拼字比赛。
02:“The first word I stumbled over was “Wednesday”, spelling it as “W-E-N-S-D-A-Y”.”
分析:“I stumbled over” 为定语从句,修饰先行词 “The first word”,省略了关系代词 that,说明是作者拼错的第一个单词;“spelling it as “W-E-N-S-D-A-Y”” 为现在分词短语作伴随状语,描述当时拼错单词的具体情况。
翻译:我拼错的第一个单词是 “Wednesday”,我把它拼成了 “W-E-N-S-D-A-Y”。
03:“After reflecting on my spelling journey, I realized I had spent so much time pursuing the victory but not finding joy in the process itself.”

A lot of manufactured glass today made from sand and sodium carbonate (碳酸钠) can be reused or melted down and recycled into new items, but it doesn’t break down in the environment and will sit in landfills for thousands of years. A team of Chinese scientists aimed to deal with this environmental concern by developing an eco-conscious alternative.
In a study published recently in the journal Science Advances, a team at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Process Engineering describe how they engineered biodegradable glass made from amino acids (氨基酸). That glass would have a smaller impact on the environment and can break down in a few weeks or in several months.
In a test, glass beads made out of amino acids were placed under the skin of mice, and the breakdown of the beads and the skin healing process were observed for 30 days. A diagram from the study shows how the mice’s bodies broke down the beads. In that month, the glass implant degraded beneath the skin, the wound site healed, and fur grew back. “Throughout the experimental period, no mice exhibited any pain-related behavior that may have been caused by the glass implantation, and none of them experienced obvious weight loss,” the researchers wrote in their paper.
Although amino acids do degrade over time in the environment, this biodegradable glass is not as durable as traditional glass, because amino acids can break down quickly in heat. In order to overcome this, the researchers chemically modified the amino acids using the heating- cooling procedure applied in glass manufacturing. This is when materials for the glass are heated to become soft and then rapidly cooled so as to make the glass tougher.
“It’s important to point out that this biodegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far from large-scale commercialization,” emphasized Yan Xuehai, a professor involved in the study, in a press release.
28.What is an advantage of the new glass?
A.It can be recycled at a low cost. B.It is produced without pollution.
C.It takes less time to break down. D.It has a wide range of applications.
29.Why did researchers implant glass beads inside mice?
A.To investigate why amino acids are medically useful.
B.To assess whether the glass is biologically harmless.
C.To explore how long it takes for the glass to degrade.
D.To observe if the glass can be melted down in mice’s stomachs.
30.What makes amino acids not as long- lasting as traditional glass?
A.The instability of amino acids.
B.The difficulty of breaking down.
C.The failure of the glass implantation.
D.The challenge of improving the heating- cooling procedure.
31.What is the attitude of Yan Xuehai towards the new glass’s launch on the market?
A.Optimistic. B.Critical.
C.Indifferent. D.Uncertain.

如今很多由沙子和碳酸钠制成的人造玻璃虽可回收再利用,但在环境中难以分解,会在垃圾填埋场留存数千年。中国科学院的一个科学家团队为解决这一环境问题,研发出一种由氨基酸制成的可生物降解玻璃。在近期发表于《科学进展》杂志的一项研究中,该团队介绍了这种玻璃的制造及相关测试情况。他们将氨基酸制成的玻璃珠植入小鼠皮下进行为期 30 天的观察,发现玻璃珠能在皮下降解,伤口愈合且毛发重新生长,小鼠未出现因植入玻璃而导致的疼痛相关行为及明显体重下降情况。不过,这种可生物降解玻璃不如传统玻璃耐用,因为氨基酸受热易分解,为此研究人员通过玻璃制造中的加热 - 冷却程序对氨基酸进行了化学改性。参与研究的教授强调,这种玻璃目前尚处于实验室阶段,离大规模商业化还很远。

Social relationships are important to human happiness. But once relationships are formed, some will naturally wax and wane (兴衰), with many of us losing touch with friends and family that we were once close with.
Across seven studies, the psychologists examined the attitudes of almost 2,500 participants to reconnecting with lost friendships, the barriers and reasons for doing so, and whether targeted interventions could encourage them to send that first message to an old friend.
The psychologists set out-to measure this hesitance to reconnect by getting participants to rate their willingness to immediately carry out a range of activities, including calling or texting a friend they had lost touch with. They found that participants were as unwilling to reach out to an old fiend as they were to strike up a conversation with a stranger—or even to pickup rubbish.
The top reported barriers included fears that one’s old friend might not want to hear from them, that it would be too awkward after all this time, and feeling guilty. An excuse of being too busy—both the old friend and the participant—was the lowest cited reason for not reaching out.
Notably, the psychologists found that participants believed there were only a few logical reasons to get in touch, with the fiend’s birthday reported as the most convincing. Reconnecting over the memory of a shared experience was the second most reported reason. Participants were least likely to consider getting in touch with an old friend to ask them a favour.
As part of the research, the psychologists tested targeted interventions and they found that practising social connection with current networks by first sending a message to a warm friend was the most successful strategy, boosting reach out rates by over two thirds.
But an expert explained: “Interestingly, despite people telling us that a key barrier to making contact with an old fiend was concerns over how the message might be received, the intervention that we designed to help overcome this anxiety had little effect.” The expert adds: “We know from decades of research that social relationships are a key source of happiness and meaning in our lives.”
32.What is the primary focus of the psychologists research?
A.The benefits of maintaining friendships.
B.The process of forming new friendships.
C.The attitudes towards reconnecting with old friends.
D.The reasons for losing contact with long lost friends.
33.What did the psychologist find regarding people’s willingness to reach out to old friends?
A.Most participants were eager to reconnect.
B.Participants hesitated to contact old friends.
C.Participants preferred to reach out to ask for favors.
D.Being too busy was the main reason for not reaching out.
34.How does the expert think of the result of their intervention on social anxiety?
A.Unsatisfactory. B.Unidentifiable. C.Predictable. D.Far-reaching.
35.What’s the best title for the text?
A.Gaining Happiness Through Social Ties B.The Pathways to Meaningful Connection
C.To Strike up a Conversation with a Stranger D.Reviving Pre-existing Close Friendships

社会关系对人类幸福至关重要,但关系形成后会有兴衰变化,很多人与曾经亲密的朋友和家人失去联系。心理学家通过七项研究,考察了近 2500 名参与者对于与失去联系的朋友重新建立联系的态度、障碍及原因,还探究了针对性干预措施能否鼓励他们给老朋友发第一条信息。研究发现参与者不太愿意主动联系老朋友,其主要障碍包括担心老朋友不想收到消息、觉得尴尬、有愧疚感等,而太忙是被提及最少的原因。参与者认为联系老朋友的合理理由不多,朋友生日和共同经历的回忆是较常见的理由,而求帮忙是最不可能的理由。研究还测试了针对性干预措施,发现先给关系好的朋友发消息来练习社交联系是最成功的策略,能大幅提高联系率,但旨在克服联系老朋友时焦虑情绪的干预措施效果不佳。专家指出社会关系是生活中幸福和意义的重要来源。

Writing effectively is a skill that anyone can develop and enjoy. Many people approach writing with fear or anxiety, often due to early unpleasant experiences. This fear can make even the simplest writing tasks harder. However, writing is not a particular talent; it’s a form of thinking on paper. 36
Writing is a skill, much like carpentry(木工工艺), with its own set of tools—words. When used correctly, these tools can make any subject accessible to readers. 37 In reality, clear and simple language can make any topic understandable.
Recognize that writing is challenging. Many assume professional writers produce perfect drafts effortlessly, but in truth, writing involves massive rewriting and refining to achieve clarity and freshness. 38 Making clear sentences often takes multiple attempts, but the satisfaction of getting them right is great.
Writing is a skill that can be learned quickly with practice. It’s not a competition; every writer starts from a different point and moves at their own pace. 39 Writing is essentially an interaction between you and your readers. It’s about communicating your thoughts to someone else on paper. Your main goal should be to master this craft, making your writing clear, engaging, and true to your voice.
40 It’s about reaching out to your readers and making a meaningful impact. Whether you’re writing a simple email, a detailed report, or a personal essay, the principles of clear and effective writing remain the same. By focusing on clarity, simplicity, and realness, you can make your writing not only effective but also enjoyable for both you and your readers.
A.Besides, writing is about connection.
B.Writing is a deeply personal process.
C.Anyone who thinks clearly can write clearly.
D.Writing can be a way to influence and inspire others.
E.If you find writing difficult, remember that it is hard by nature.
F.Focus on your own progress rather than comparing yourself with others.
G.A common misunderstanding is that writing about specialized fields requires professional words.

I was born into a poor family from a small Indian village where we had no college, or university. After completing Grade Ten, my father came to me with some bad news. . .
“Son, I’m sorry. I won’t be able to pay any more of your educational expenses.”
I was the fourth and youngest son in the family. The family expenses had become too much for my father’s small army wage to handle. Not having money for my education worried me. I laid my head down that night, wondering what my future held in store. The words of my teacher came to me, “Nawaz, you must try and find another way for your future. Look at me! I grew up as a poor boy from the village. I struggled, I worked hard and I went to the city. You must find a way and never give up. ”
I heard Karachi was a city of opportunity for poor people due to lots of small jobs. I decided to move to the city to get a job, so I could save up and pay for my education.
On a busy street not far from where I stayed, I found a job in a small restaurant. I waited on tables, cleaned floors, and washed dishes. I slowly saved enough money for my college admission fee. After that, I studied by day. By night and on weekends I worked at the restaurant. I was tired but determined to complete my education.
One day Mr. Jatin started asking me questions. “Where are you from?” “What are you doing here?” “Why are you working here?” He came to the restaurant for a cup of tea regularly in the afternoon, so the waiters were all familiar with him. I politely answered his questions about my situation.
“Mmm, I see,” Mr. Jatin nodded. “I’ve watched you work hard. And I’d like to pay for all your college fees. You can quit your job and focus on your studies. ”

Last Saturday, the senior three students attended the “Embracing Yourself” speech contest organized by the Student Union in the school auditorium. The event, which started at 9 a.m., featured students sharing personal stories on self-acceptance and growth.
Participants inspired each other with their speeches, promoting a sense of self-worth and resilience. The event was a success, fostering a supportive environment and boosting students’ confidence to face future challenges with a positive attitude.
The significance of the event lies in its promotion of a positive self-image and the encouragement of students to appreciate their individuality. It was a significant step towards building a supportive and inclusive school community.

【参考范文】
I couldn’t believe what I had just heard. My heart was filled with an overwhelming sense of joy and profound gratitude. I stood there, stunned for a moment, my eyes wide with astonishment. I thanked Mr. Jatin repeatedly, unable to contain my excitement. With his support, I could finally focus entirely on my studies without the burden of financial worries. I worked even harder, determined not to disappoint him and to make the most of this precious opportunity.
Having got a well-paid job after graduation, I realized it was time to pay back. I expressed my appreciation in the most heartfelt way possible, emphasizing how his kindness had transformed my life. I decided to help other students in need, just as he had helped me. I set up a scholarship fund to support those who struggled like I once did. I was acutely aware of the immense value of a helping hand in times of difficulty and was eager to pass on the kindness and make a positive difference in the lives of others.
