The ropes being used were once the lifeline for mountain climbers tackling Nepal’s mountains and were then cast away. Diverse measures to remove such discarded materials have rocketed since 2019, when the government launched Clean Mountain Campaign.Around 140,000 tons of waste were collected on Mt. Everest alone, which were handled accordingly, either securely buried or recycled. Some waste is now finding fresh life, transformed by skilled hands like Chaudhary’s into items to sell, thanks to an initiative led by Acharya, an owner of a waste processing business and an advocate for sustainable waste management. She has been working with the cleaning campaign, aiming at mountains like Mt. Everest. “Metal waste goes through the recycling process, but we weren’t capable of recycling these ropes and cooking gas cans,” Acharya says. It didn’t occur to her that the waste which couldn’t be recycled could be reused until she met Rai at an art exhibition and a solution emerged. Rai, a businessman dealing in craftworks, helped connect Acharya with Chaudhary and her team of craftswomen in hopes of unlocking the economic value of the mountain waste. With flexible hours, the project gives the craftswomen an opportunity to earn money even as they maintain their household responsibilities. “While this seems insignificant compared to waste in the mountains, it’s a start. We can’t supply sufficient raw material with waste sorting and cleaning processes taking plenty of time and money,” Acharya says, desperate to expand the program to involve more women and treat more waste. But progress has been slow. “We need investment to mechanize the cleaning and processing of waste in the initial phase to provide the crafting team with enough materials to meet their demand,” she adds. 4. What were the ropes mentioned in paragraph 2 initially intended as? A. Tools for tying up weeds. B. Villagers’ basic necessities of life. C. Raw materials tor unique artworks. D. Life-saving devices for mountaineers. 5. What inspired Acharya’s resolution of non-recyclable waste? A. A journey to the rural area. B. An encounter with a trader. C. Information from a product launch. D. Attendance at an academic conference. 6. What does Acharya expect to do based on the last paragraph? A. Train more senior technicians. B. Obtain a better reputation. C. Drop waste washing procedures. D. Bring in advanced equipment. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Chaudhary: An Eco-Minded Folk Artist B. Nepali Women Are Turning Garbage into Crafts C. Clean Mountain Campaign Has Already Taken Effect D. A Headache: Mt. Everest Is Heavily Littered with Waste 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了尼泊尔女性在Chaudhary的带领下，利用被丢弃的登山绳索和草料制作礼品盒的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The ropes being used were once the lifeline for mountain climbers tackling Nepal’s mountains and were then cast away.(这些绳索曾是攀登尼泊尔山脉的登山者的生命线，然后被丢弃。)”可知，这些绳索曾经是尼泊尔山脉登山者的生命线，后来被丢弃。因此，这些绳索最初是为了拯救登山者的生命而设计的，即它们是登山者的救生设备。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“It didn’t occur to her that the waste which couldn’t be recycled could be reused until she met Rai at an art exhibition and a solution emerged.(她从未想过这些无法回收的垃圾可以再利用，直到她在一次艺术展览上遇到了Rai，她才想到了一个解决方案。)”以及第五段“Rai, a businessman dealing in craftworks, helped connect Acharya with Chaudhary and her team of craftswomen in hopes of unlocking the economic value of the mountain waste.( Rai是一名从事工艺品生意的商人，他帮助Acharya与Chaudhary和她的女工匠团队建立了联系，希望能释放山区废物的经济价值。)”可知，Acharya之前并没有想到无法回收的废物可以重新利用，直到她在艺术展览上遇到了商人Rai，然后才找到了解决方案。因此，是与商人Rai的相遇激发了Acharya解决不可回收废物的决心。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段““We need investment to mechanize the cleaning and processing of waste in the initial phase to provide the crafting team with enough materials to meet their demand,” she adds.(“我们需要在初期阶段投资机械化清洁和处理垃圾，以便为手工艺团队提供足够的材料来满足他们的需求，”她补充道。)”可知，她期望在初始阶段获得投资，以实现废物清洁和处理的机械化，从而为手工艺团队提供足够的材料来满足他们的需求。因此，她期望引进先进的设备来实现这一目标。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Chaudhary weaves (编织) together lengths of rope and grass collected from the nearby riverbank in her village, skillfully shaping the materials into a gift box while instructing a group of women to follow suit.( Chaudhary在她村庄附近的河岸上收集绳索和草料，熟练地将这些材料编织成礼品盒，并指导一群妇女效仿她的做法。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了尼泊尔女性在Chaudhary的带领下，正在将河流附近的废弃绳索和草料变成像礼品盒这样的工艺品。文章主要聚焦于这一过程以及它对减少废物和妇女赋权的积极影响。故选B。 C “A fish out of water.” “A bike without a chain.” There are many metaphors for culture shock, all of which attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one’s home country and culture. Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century. Rather than focus on the purely negative aspects, psychologists describe it as a process of stress and adjustment. The first stage is the honeymoon phase, when we are filled with excitement about being in another country. Eventually, as daily challenges arise, we enter a state of crisis and anxiety, harboring unfriendly feelings about the host culture. The longer we are immersed in the culture, we adjust and recover from those negative feelings. Finally, after some time we adjust even more and fully accept the new culture. One of the factors that determines how we react to cultural stress is our personality. Not surprisingly, extraverts (外向者) tend to have an easier time adjusting to new cultures. That is because being in a new country means meeting many new people and spending a lot of time around them, and extraverts thrive in these situations. But introverts simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups, and only have limited energy to spend in social settings. Cultural intelligence, or CQ, also plays its part. Cultural intelligence is defined as the capability of an individual to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity. It has to do with our interest in interacting with people from culturally diverse backgrounds, and our ability to adapt to new cultural context. It is argued that the higher our CQ, the lesser the effect of culture shock on our ability to cope in new situations. Many effective coping strategies are interpersonal. A recent study found that relating to others with empathy is significantly associated with lower stress levels abroad. The more we are able to take on other people’s points of view, the more positive our interpersonal relationships and thus our adaptation to the stress of culture shock. 8. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. Explaining the quotes. B. Raising an argument. C. Introducing the topic. D. Presenting an example. 9. How will a person feel the moment he arrives in a foreign country? A. Anxious. B. Thrilled. C. Shocked. D. Grateful. 10. Who will most probably be affected by the cultural shock? A. An active boy interested in anything new. B. A shy boy unwilling to socialize with strangers. C A quiet girl open to diverse cultural backgrounds. D. A communicative girl fluent in the local language. 11. What is important for dealing with the cultural shock? A. Lowering the stress level. B. Developing self-awareness. C. Analyzing the cause of discomfort. D. Understanding others with sympathy. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了文化冲突的含义、遭受文化冲突的原因和应对文化冲突的方法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“ “A fish out of water.” “A bike without a chain.” There are many metaphors for culture shock, all of which attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one’s home country and culture.(“离开水的鱼。”“一辆没有链条的自行车。”文化冲击有很多隐喻，所有这些都试图描述远离祖国和文化的独特经历)”以及第二段“Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century. Rather than focus on the purely negative aspects, psychologists describe it as a process of stress and adjustment. (一个多世纪以来，科学家一直在研究文化冲击。心理学家将其描述为一个压力和调整的过程，而不是专注于纯粹的消极方面)”可推知，第一段用两个习语引入“文化冲突”这一主题。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The first stage is the honeymoon phase, when we are filled with excitement about being in another country. (第一个阶段是蜜月期，我们对来到另一个国家充满了兴奋)”可知，人们刚到国外时的感觉是兴奋的。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Not surprisingly, extraverts (外向者) tend to have an easier time adjusting to new cultures. (毫不奇怪，外向的人往往更容易适应新文化)”以及“But introverts simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups, and only have limited energy to spend in social settings. (但内向的人只是喜欢在集体活动后独处，他们在社交场合的精力有限)”可推知，内向的人更容易受文化冲击。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“A recent study found that relating to others with empathy is significantly associated with lower stress levels abroad. (最近的一项研究发现，用同理心与他人交往，在国外的压力水平会显著降低)”可知， 带着同理心理解他人是应对文化冲突的有效方法。故选D。 D Shakespeare described sleep as “the main course in life’s feast, and the most nourishing”. New research suggests it may also be a key nutrient in defend us against Alzheimer’s disease. Poor sleep has long been linked to Alzheimer’s, but the relationship is similar to the chicken-and-egg puzzle. It isn’t clear which came first. During deep sleep, the brain produces slow electrical waves and flushes out neurotoxins (神经毒素) including amyloid (淀粉样蛋白) and tau (微管蛋白) , two indicators of the disease. Studies have shown that even one night of terrible deep sleep can lead to an increase of amyloid. A week of disrupted sleep can raise the amount of tau, which is especially insidious because over time it can strangle neurons from the inside out. A study in the Annals of Neurology found that a sleep pill called suvorexant could reduce amyloid and tau in middle-aged adults with no cognitive problems. The two-night trial showed that amyloid dropped 10%to 20%, and a key form of tau 10%to 15%in people who received a high dose compared to a placebo (安慰剂) group. But these effects need to be studied over longer periods of time—including in older adults at higher risk of Alzheimers. But the study suggests that improving sleep quality among middle-aged adults could help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s later in life. What has puzzled neurologists, however, is that some people with high levels of amyloid who may appear to have Alzheimer’s based on brain scans nonetheless function normally. Neurologists assume that this is because some people have higher levels of “cognitive reserve.” which enables them to function normally despite neurological damage. But there’s another X factor, which scientists have struggled to identify. A new study suggests it may be sleep, and in particular deep sleep. “Think of deep sleep almost like a life raft that keeps memory afloat, rather than memory getting dragged down by the weight of Alzheimer’s disease,” says Matthew Walker, a neuroscience professor at UC Berkeley. 12. What is the relationship between sleep and Alzheimer’s disease according to the new research? A. Inadequate sleep will indicate Alzheimer’s disease. B. The disease may be prevented if we can sleep well. C. Neurotoxins produced during sleep cause the disease. D. A good sleep will raise the indicators of the disease. 13. What can we infer from paragraph four? A. It’s too early to use the sleeping pill to treat Alzheimer’s. B. It’s advisable that adults turn to suvorexant to sleep well. C. Suvorexant is a desirable pill to improve our sleep quality. D. The amount of Amyloid and tau decreased due to placebo. 14. What is the main idea of paragraph five? A. Researchers’ great confusion about the high levels of amyloid. B. Low level cognitive reserve resulting in abnormal brain function. C. Potential determinants related to the possibility of Alzheimer’s. D. Neurologists’ assumption about our brain function and damage. 15. Why dose Matthew Walker make the comparison in his remarks? A. To advocate a healthy lifestyle among adults. B. To emphasize the significance of sleep quality. C. To demonstrate the crucial role of our memory. D. To detail the damage brought by Alzheimer’s. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。新研究表明，优质睡眠尤其是深度睡眠，可能帮助抵御阿尔茨海默病，通过清除大脑中的神经毒素。改善中年人睡眠质量，有望降低未来患病风险，而深度睡眠的作用如同保护记忆免受疾病侵袭的生命筏。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“New research suggests it may also be a key nutrient in defend us against Alzheimer’s disease. (新的研究表明，睡眠可能也是保护我们免受阿尔茨海默病的关键营养素。)”可知，如果我们睡得好，这种疾病就可以预防。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段“A study in the Annals of Neurology found that a sleep pill called suvorexant could reduce amyloid and tau in middle-aged adults with no cognitive problems. The two-night trial showed that amyloid dropped 10%to 20%, and a key form of tau 10%to 15%in people who received a high dose compared to a placebo (安慰剂) group. But these effects need to be studied over longer periods of time—including in older adults at higher risk of Alzheimers. But the study suggests that improving sleep quality among middle-aged adults could help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s later in life. (发表在《神经学年鉴》上的一项研究发现，一种名为suvorexant的安眠药可以减少没有认知问题的中年人的淀粉样蛋白和tau蛋白。为期两晚的试验表明，与安慰剂组相比，接受高剂量治疗的人淀粉样蛋白下降了10%至20%，一种关键形式的tau蛋白下降了10%至15%。但这些影响需要在更长的时间内进行研究——包括在患阿尔茨海默病风险较高的老年人中。但研究表明，改善中年人的睡眠质量有助于降低晚年患阿尔茨海默氏症的风险。)”可知，虽然研究发现suvorexant能减少中年人群中的淀粉样蛋白和tau含量，但这些效果需要更长时间的研究来验证，特别是在老年高风险人群中。因此，现在就推荐使用这种安眠药来治疗或预防阿尔茨海默病还为时尚早。故选A。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第五段“What has puzzled neurologists, however, is that some people with high levels of amyloid who may appear to have Alzheimer’s based on brain scans nonetheless function normally. Neurologists assume that this is because some people have higher levels of “cognitive reserve.” which enables them to function normally despite neurological damage. But there’s another X factor, which scientists have struggled to identify. A new study suggests it may be sleep, and in particular deep sleep. (然而，让神经学家感到困惑的是，一些淀粉样蛋白水平高的人，从脑部扫描来看，可能患有阿尔茨海默氏症，但他们的功能却很正常。神经学家认为，这是因为有些人有更高水平的“认知储备”。这使得它们在神经受损的情况下仍能正常运作。但还有另一个未知因素，科学家们一直在努力确定。一项新的研究表明，这可能是睡眠，尤其是深度睡眠。)”可知，第五段主要讲述的是神经学家对于一些淀粉样蛋白水平高但认知功能正常人群的困惑，以及除了“认知储备”外，另一个尚未明确的因素——深度睡眠，可能是影响这一现象的关键。因此，本段核心内容是关于阿尔茨海默病可能性的相关潜在影响因素。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段““Think of deep sleep almost like a life raft that keeps memory afloat, rather than memory getting dragged down by the weight of Alzheimer’s disease,” says Matthew Walker, a neuroscience professor at UC Berkeley. (加州大学伯克利分校的神经科学教授马修·沃克说：“深度睡眠几乎就像一艘救生筏，让记忆漂浮在水面上，而不是被阿尔茨海默病的重压拖垮。”)”可知，马修·沃克在他的评论中将深度睡眠比喻为“维持记忆浮于水面的生命筏”，以此强调在面对阿尔茨海默病这样病症的重压下，良好睡眠特别是深度睡眠对维护记忆功能的重要性。他的比喻是为了强调高质量睡眠的重要性。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Start a Garden in 2024?

G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何进行园艺的一些建议。 【16题详解】 设空位于首段段尾，应是点出主题，引出下文，根据前文“Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul.(园艺是发挥创造力的有力途径，能让你置身于美之中。它可以为你的家人提供自制的食物，让你与大自然保持联系，也是一种宝贵的锻炼方式。简而言之，园艺对身体和灵魂都有益。)”以及下文中的小标题可知，本文主要讲述进行园艺的一些建议，D项“Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening(这里有一些对园艺初学者必不可少的建议。)”符合本文主题，并引出下文。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key.(无论你种什么，肥沃的土壤是关键。)”可知，本段主要讲述了，学习园艺，土壤是关键，所以F项“Investing in rich soil initially create s a suitable environment(最初投资于肥沃的土壤会创造一个适宜的环境。)”符合本段主题，其中soil为同词复现。故选F项。 【18题详解】 根据后文“Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them. Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.(生菜和罗勒又快又容易种植。每次你剪掉它们的叶子，它们都会换新的。像这样的蔬菜意味着连续的收获，这对保持精神振奋非常重要。)”可知，本段建议是园艺初学者应该种植能不断收获的蔬菜来保持精神振奋，所以C项“If you’re a newcomer(如果你是一个新人)”顺接下文“choose ones you can harvest more than once(选择那些你可以收获不止一次的)”符合本段主题。故选C项。 【19题详解】 设空处为本段小标题，根据后文“Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.(有些植物会长得很高，有些植物会长得离地面更近。高大的植物会遮蔽较矮的植物，使它们得不到所需的阳光。同时，给幼苗足够的空间伸展和生长。如果它们长得太近，不要害怕把幼苗削薄。)”可知，本段主题是建议要注意植物的生长空间，所以B项“Size up your growing space(评估你的种植空间)”符合主题，为本段小标题。故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive.(从园艺中心购买所有的植物是昂贵的。)”以及后文“Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from. It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much.(向从事园艺的朋友和家人寻求帮助，让他们与你分享多余的种子。还要检查一下他们是否有什么植物可以插枝。这比买幼苗要花更长的时间，但它绝对更令人满意，你会学到很多东西。)”可知，前文讲述从园艺中心购买所有的植物是昂贵的，后文讲述可以通过用种子和插枝来省钱，所以空处应是过渡句，G项“However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings(然而，你可以从种子或插枝中种植各种各样的植物)”和前文构成转折关系，并引出下文内容，符合文意。故选G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） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One day, hundreds of people were stuck in traffic on the highway in below-freezing temperatures due to a snowstorm.

In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter. We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables-my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other. It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends. The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon. The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged. As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this. Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help. 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。 Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Just at that moment, Luella’ family returned in their car. Empathy surged within me as I saw their shock and disbelief. Approaching Luella, I tightly held her hands and said, “I’m so sorry for your loss, but thankfully you’re all right.” She weakly nodded, still puzzled by the shocking scene. My family volunteered to help clean up the mess, cutting down the branches and removing the fallen trees. To lift Luella’s spirits and give her comfort, I tried my best to cheer her up while tidying the garden with her, during which my own joyful personality seemed to revive a bit. Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’ sorrow for her lost garden. My heart went out to her, knowing how much she had cherished those tulips that she had devoted so much energy to. Determined to restore the beauty of the garden, I suggested we rebuild the garden, which Luella delightedly agreed. Carefully planted and watered, the new tulip seedlings once again filled the garden, which symbolized the beginning of our friendship, as well as the turning that I finally got embraced by this new environment. My mom was right: it’s more blessed to give than to receive because when you give, you may receive something unexpected in return. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者七岁时从墨西哥搬到美国后变得沉默寡言，难以融入新环境。作者家有个种着蔬菜的院子，作者梦想拥有像同学露卢埃拉那样美丽的花园。一场龙卷风袭击了作者所在的街区，卢埃拉家的花园被毁，作者一家决定帮助卢埃拉一家清理废墟，作者也借此机会和卢埃拉成为了亲密朋友，还一起重建花园，最终作者也重新找回了曾经开朗的自己并逐渐融入新环境的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“就在这时，卢埃拉的家人开着车回来了。”可知，第一段可描写卢埃拉一家看到花园被毁后的反应，作者及家人对他们的安慰，以及大家一起清理废墟的过程，同时要体现作者在这个过程中情绪的变化 ②由第二段首句内容“即使在废墟被清理干净之后，我仍然能感觉到卢埃拉对她失去的花园的悲伤。”可知，第二段可描写作者感受到露埃拉的悲伤后决定采取行动，即提议重建花园，重建花园的过程以及花园重建后带来的意义。 2.续写线索：卢埃拉一家看到花园废墟的反应→作者安慰露埃拉→作者一家帮忙清理废墟→作者在清理过程中恢复开朗→废墟清理后卢埃拉仍悲伤→作者提议重建花园→一起重建花园→花园重建的意义→感悟给予的道理 3.词汇激活 行为类： ① 走近：approach/get close to ② 清理：clean up/clear away ③ 种植：plant/sow ④建议：suggest/recommend 情绪类 ① 震惊：shock/astonishment ② 高兴的：delighted/joyful 【点睛】【高分句型 1】Empathy surged within me as I saw their shock and disbelief.（运用了 as 引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型 2】To lift Luella’s spirits and give her comfort, I tried my best to cheer her up while tidying the garden with her, during which my own joyful personality seemed to revive a bit.（运用了动词不定式作目的状语，while 引导的时间状语从句以及 “介词 + 关系代词 which” 引导的非限制性定语从句） 听力 1—5 CABCB 6—10 BAAAC 11—15 CBAAC 16—20 ABCCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025新高考单科模拟综合卷 英语 考生注意： 1.本试卷由四个部分组成。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在本试卷和答题卡相应位置上。 3.请按照题号顺序在各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效；在草稿纸、试题卷上答题无效。 4.考试结束后，将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 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.

B Chaudhary weaves (编织) together lengths of rope and grass collected from the nearby riverbank in her village, skillfully shaping the materials into a gift box while instructing a group of women to follow suit. The ropes being used were once the lifeline for mountain climbers tackling Nepal’s mountains and were then cast away. Diverse measures to remove such discarded materials have rocketed since 2019, when the government launched Clean Mountain Campaign.Around 140,000 tons of waste were collected on Mt. Everest alone, which were handled accordingly, either securely buried or recycled. Some waste is now finding fresh life, transformed by skilled hands like Chaudhary’s into items to sell, thanks to an initiative led by Acharya, an owner of a waste processing business and an advocate for sustainable waste management. She has been working with the cleaning campaign, aiming at mountains like Mt. Everest. “Metal waste goes through the recycling process, but we weren’t capable of recycling these ropes and cooking gas cans,” Acharya says. It didn’t occur to her that the waste which couldn’t be recycled could be reused until she met Rai at an art exhibition and a solution emerged. Rai, a businessman dealing in craftworks, helped connect Acharya with Chaudhary and her team of craftswomen in hopes of unlocking the economic value of the mountain waste. With flexible hours, the project gives the craftswomen an opportunity to earn money even as they maintain their household responsibilities. “While this seems insignificant compared to waste in the mountains, it’s a start. We can’t supply sufficient raw material with waste sorting and cleaning processes taking plenty of time and money,” Acharya says, desperate to expand the program to involve more women and treat more waste. But progress has been slow. “We need investment to mechanize the cleaning and processing of waste in the initial phase to provide the crafting team with enough materials to meet their demand,” she adds. 4. What were the ropes mentioned in paragraph 2 initially intended as? A. Tools for tying up weeds. B. Villagers’ basic necessities of life. C. Raw materials tor unique artworks. D. Life-saving devices for mountaineers. 5. What inspired Acharya’s resolution of non-recyclable waste? A. A journey to the rural area. B. An encounter with a trader. C. Information from a product launch. D. Attendance at an academic conference. 6 What does Acharya expect to do based on the last paragraph? A. Train more senior technicians. B. Obtain a better reputation. C. Drop waste washing procedures. D. Bring in advanced equipment. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Chaudhary: An Eco-Minded Folk Artist B. Nepali Women Are Turning Garbage into Crafts C. Clean Mountain Campaign Has Already Taken Effect D. A Headache: Mt. Everest Is Heavily Littered with Waste C “A fish out of water.” “A bike without a chain.” There are many metaphors for culture shock, all of which attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one’s home country and culture. Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century. Rather than focus on the purely negative aspects, psychologists describe it as a process of stress and adjustment. The first stage is the honeymoon phase, when we are filled with excitement about being in another country. Eventually, as daily challenges arise, we enter a state of crisis and anxiety, harboring unfriendly feelings about the host culture. The longer we are immersed in the culture, we adjust and recover from those negative feelings. Finally, after some time we adjust even more and fully accept the new culture. One of the factors that determines how we react to cultural stress is our personality. Not surprisingly, extraverts (外向者) tend to have an easier time adjusting to new cultures. That is because being in a new country means meeting many new people and spending a lot of time around them, and extraverts thrive in these situations. But introverts simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups, and only have limited energy to spend in social settings. Cultural intelligence, or CQ, also plays its part. Cultural intelligence is defined as the capability of an individual to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity. It has to do with our interest in interacting with people from culturally diverse backgrounds, and our ability to adapt to new cultural context. It is argued that the higher our CQ, the lesser the effect of culture shock on our ability to cope in new situations. Many effective coping strategies are interpersonal.

New research suggests it may also be a key nutrient in defend us against Alzheimer’s disease. Poor sleep has long been linked to Alzheimer’s, but the relationship is similar to the chicken-and-egg puzzle. It isn’t clear which came first. During deep sleep, the brain produces slow electrical waves and flushes out neurotoxins (神经毒素) including amyloid (淀粉样蛋白) and tau (微管蛋白) , two indicators of the disease. Studies have shown that even one night of terrible deep sleep can lead to an increase of amyloid. A week of disrupted sleep can raise the amount of tau, which is especially insidious because over time it can strangle neurons from the inside out. A study in the Annals of Neurology found that a sleep pill called suvorexant could reduce amyloid and tau in middle-aged adults with no cognitive problems. The two-night trial showed that amyloid dropped 10%to 20%, and a key form of tau 10%to 15%in people who received a high dose compared to a placebo (安慰剂) group. But these effects need to be studied over longer periods of time—including in older adults at higher risk of Alzheimers. But the study suggests that improving sleep quality among middle-aged adults could help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s later in life. What has puzzled neurologists, however, is that some people with high levels of amyloid who may appear to have Alzheimer’s based on brain scans nonetheless function normally. Neurologists assume that this is because some people have higher levels of “cognitive reserve.” which enables them to function normally despite neurological damage. But there’s another X factor, which scientists have struggled to identify. A new study suggests it may be sleep, and in particular deep sleep. “Think of deep sleep almost like a life raft that keeps memory afloat, rather than memory getting dragged down by the weight of Alzheimer’s disease,” says Matthew Walker, a neuroscience professor at UC Berkeley. 12. What is the relationship between sleep and Alzheimer’s disease according to the new research? A. Inadequate sleep will indicate Alzheimer’s disease. B. The disease may be prevented if we can sleep well. C. Neurotoxins produced during sleep cause the disease. D. A good sleep will raise the indicators of the disease. 13. What can we infer from paragraph four? A. It’s too early to use the sleeping pill to treat Alzheimer’s. B. It’s advisable that adults turn to suvorexant to sleep well. C. Suvorexant is a desirable pill to improve our sleep quality. D. The amount of Amyloid and tau decreased due to placebo. 14. What is the main idea of paragraph five? A. Researchers’ great confusion about the high levels of amyloid. B. Low level cognitive reserve resulting in abnormal brain function. C. Potential determinants related to the possibility of Alzheimer’s. D. Neurologists’ assumption about our brain function and damage. 15. Why dose Matthew Walker make the comparison in his remarks? A. To advocate a healthy lifestyle among adults. B. To emphasize the significance of sleep quality. C. To demonstrate the crucial role of our memory. D. To detail the damage brought by Alzheimer’s. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Start a Garden in 2024?

In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter. We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables-my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other. It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends. The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon. The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged. As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this. Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help. 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。 Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 CABCB 6—10 BAAAC 11—15 CBAAC 16—20 ABCCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
