Via Appia, Italy Also known as “the Queen of roads”, this 500-mile stretch is the oldest Roman road. It connects the Italian capital to Southern Italy’s seaports and speeds the growth and development of new settlements while driving agricultural production and trade. Journeying up this road is a transportation through time, with the original paving stones reminding us of Italy’s old times. Schwerin Residence Ensemble (建筑群), Germany A picture-perfect image of traditional German architecture surrounded by Lake Schwerin, this cultural ensemble comprises 38 of Schwerin’s most striking landscapes and architecture. The architecture of Schwerin captures the essence of 19th-century Germany with its public gardens and cultural buildings tied together by the grand Schwerin Castle. The Flow Country, Scotland In Scotland lies one of the world’s most untouched blanket bog (沼泽) landscapes. With around 500,000 acres of bog pools and ancient plants, The Flow Country is one of the world’s biggest carbon stores, crucial in the fight against climate change. On foot is how you can experience the dramatic views of this lesser-known landscape and diverse wildlife species closely. Moravian Church Settlements, Germany and UK Gracehill was a village in Northern Ireland founded by the Moravians in 1759. Guided tours of Gracehill Old School and the Moravian Church offer visual insights into traditional, Moravian architecture. In Germany, the living Moravian heritage can be felt in the museums and church halls of Herrnhut, the birthplace of the Moravian Church. 1. What can one expect to do from the travel along Via Appia? A. Take a bus to southern seaports. B. Admire some German buildings. C. Experience the ancient past of Italy. D. Have a look at Moravian architecture. 2. Which site can one go to watch the wildlife? A. Via Appia. B. The Flow Country. C. Schwerin Residence Ensemble. D. Moravian Church Settlements. 3. What do the four sites have in common? A. They are located in the same country. B. They are not much known to the outside. C. They are meant for nature-loving travelers. D. They have long been on the World Heritage List. B Hearing the speeding cars passing us, I had to focus on the sound of my uncle’s bicycle leading the way. At thirty, with my retinas (视网膜) dying from an eye disease, driving a car was impossible and I couldn’t give up the freedom of riding my bike. Uncle Fred pedalled steadily. I biked a few inches behind. He shouted directions at each intersection. Suddenly, his voice rose with urgency, “Carol, stop! A car is turning.” When we reached our destination, my shoulders ached from the ride. As I sat next to Uncle Fred, he cleared his throat and said, “Carol, did you think about getting a trained Seeing Eye dog? It can give you independence.” He knew I was afraid of dogs. Words stuck in my throat. But his voice cracked and planted the seed of an idea. My world shrunk as my blindness grew worse. Luckily, I had a good sense of direction, allowing me to visualize neighborhood routes. This skill could be an advantage when working with a dog. After calculating, I finally called the guide dog school. The admission application arrived, but I still wasn’t sure. One day, I phoned my friend Robert, a longtime guide dog user in my town. He shared his positive experiences. Somehow, his words convinced me to give it a try. During the training, the dog trainer’s coaching and each successful walk with the dogs built my confidence. As my guide dog Misty and I bonded, my shoulders relaxed. When I returned home, Uncle Fred was the first to meet Misty. Misty sat at our feet waving her tail. She must have picked up on the positive energy that circled us like a hug. Misty drove away my anxiety as I slowly opened my heart to her. Just as Uncle Fred had predicted, overcoming my fear gave me the opportunity for more independence. My new confidence came from using a guide dog, allowing me to walk tall. Uncle Fred’s advice moved my sense of joy from my bike to my dog. 4. What drove the author to ride a bike? A. Getting prepared for driving a car. B. Treating her disease by taking exercise. C. Getting familiar with noisy background. D. Enjoying the freedom of moving around. 5. How did the author react to her uncle’s suggestion? A. She thought it worth a try. B. She drew up a practical plan. C. She was stuck in desperation. D. She refused it for fear of dogs. 6. Why did the author call Robert? A. To invite him to adopt a dog. B. To ask him about the application. C. To encourage him to be positive in life. D. To consult him about taking a guide dog. 7. What change did Misty bring to the author? A. She became confident about fighting the illness. B. She became more attached to her uncle for help. C. She gained her independence with Misty’s help. D. She formed her community of guide dog trainers. C In surveys over the past couple of years, Gallup researchers have found only about a third of U. S. workers feel engaged with their jobs. It’s a concern for companies and the economy. Fortunately, researchers have identified a simple solution: Recognize your employees’ achievements. Across a number of industries, employees having high-quality recognition on the job were 45% less likely to have left that job between 2022 and 2024. “Imagine how demoralizing it would be if you’re doing things at work that nobody sees and you feel like nobody cares about,’’ says Martin, senior director at Workhuman, which tracked the career paths of more than 3,400 workers over two years. When it comes to recognition, people feel less lonely when their contributions are praised, which in turn keeps them from seeking work elsewhere. The survey asked respondents if they felt stressed the previous day. Those who said they felt recognized on the job reported lower levels of stress than those who said they were not. Another finding emerging from the surveys is that high-quality feedback can fuel professional development. That was Andy Hernandez’s experience. He was working in car financing in Greenville, trying to figure out how to get ahead, when he decided to learn Excel to use it at work. He began pitching ideas using his newly acquired skills. Managers liked what he was doing and told him as much. “It motivates me to know that all this extra stuff I’m doing gets recognized; it’s also helping me show that I’m ready for the next step,” he says. He rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a team leader. He says he looked for opportunities to show appreciation for his team. There are generational differences when it comes to the desire for feedback, Gallup found in 2024. Younger workers, who feel less attached to their workplaces than their parents, have a higher expectation of appreciation. Fortunately for them, company leaders are also increasingly recognizing the importance of praise in the workplace. In 2024, Workhuman found 42% of senior leaders reporting their organizations value employee recognition, up from 28% in 2022. 8. What did Gallup researchers reveal about U. S.workers? A. They give positive work feedback. B. They desire high income for their work. C. They feel less devoted to their work. D. They’re concerned about U. S. economy. 9 What does the underlined word “demoralizing” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Discouraging. B. Inspiring. C. Misleading. D. Entertaining. 10. What benefit did learning Excel bring to Andy? A. It made him judge his team in a positive way. B. He welcomed each suggestion objectively. C. It enabled him to be put in charge of a firm. D. He was recognized and motivated to go on. 11. What did Gallup find about generational differences? A. Young leaders are less likely to praise their workers. B. Young workers have high expectations to be recognized. C. Senior leaders care little about workplace recognition. D. Senior workers enjoy a rise in recognition of their work. D A revolution in weather forecasting could soon see warnings of coming heatwaves, storms or other extreme events accompanied by specific information on the role climate change has played in fuelling them. The shift would help bring the reality of our warming planet to the general public. Key to this idea is the growing field of attribution science (归因科学), which involves examining extreme weather events after the fact to detail the impact of climate change. It involves simulating an event twice, under real-world conditions and in a fictional world with no human-caused climate change. The difference between those two situations reveals the extent to which rising emissions (排放) made matters worse. Now, researchers want to go further and apply attribution science to events before they even happen. At the UK weather service, the Met Office, Peter Stott and his colleagues are doing this with weather forecasting models, comparing real-world forecasts with ones based on a fictional world unaffected by human influence. The goal is to provide the public with weather and climate information at the same time. “So, the forecast shows how the weather information relates to climate change, and the impacts it will mean for them locally.” Bernat at the Institute of GeoSciences in Spain has experimented with a different approach, using artificial intelligence-powered weather forecasts. Together with colleagues, he ran the AI-enabled approach on three past extreme events: the 2018 Iberian heatwave, Hurricane Florence in the US in 2018, and Storm Ciaran in the UK and other parts of northern Europe in 2023. The AI models correctly predicted that all three extreme events would occur, but underestimated their size. Bemat says the AI approach is currently most accurate when considering heatwaves but more limited for complex systems such as a tropical storm. But Bernat says AI weather forecasts are rapidly improving. He says this AI-based approach would allow attribution analysis to be much more widely used helping to expand people’s understanding of how extreme events are changing. 12. What will be added to weather forecasting after the revolution? A. The damage extreme weather events cause to the environment. B. Effective measures in preventing extreme weather events. C. The effect of climate change on extreme weather events. D. Specific ways for the public to fight against climate change. 13. What’s the purpose of the work of Peter’s team? A. To build a model to produce climate information. B. To connect local weather with climate change. C. To predict the degree of local carbon emissions. D. To apply AI to the prediction of extreme events. 14 What is Bernat’s attitude toward AI weather forecasts? A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Climate Information Is Added to Weather Forecasts B. AI Technology Will Be Used in Predicting Weather Events C. Emissions Are Predicted to Fuel Extreme Weather Events D. Weather Forecasts Enjoy a Breakthrough Fuelled by AI 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most Americans eat ultraprocessed (深加工的) foods every day.

I had a heart-to-heart discussion with my husband. Despite my unfamiliarity with homeschooling and the lack of confidence in my ability to set it right, I told him that I could try homeschooling our son in the hope that it would better prepare him for public school. He agreed, though we were both concerned that if we waited a full year, he’d fall behind academically. More than a few mothers I knew were homeschooling their children. I called a few of them and asked lots of questions. When voicing my concerns about my teaching ability, one mother asked me an unexpected question, “Do you love your kids?” She then told me that loving them was all it took to be an effective homeschooling parent. That simple statement gave me the courage to try. Upon the advice of my fellow homeschooling mothers, I ordered a preschool program that centered around singing. I found the curriculum very easy to teach. Surprisingly, it was a lot of fun! I started to realize that he just needed attention. When he got my undivided attention, he suddenly became calmer than ever before. Around the same time, my husband took a job as a traveling carpenter, and he’d be gone nine to ten weeks at a time. That’s not what a mother of four young kids wants to hear! Then, I had a brainstorm. I could homeschool all four kids, and we traveled with him some of the time. It would help us spend more time together, and it might just work. We bought an older motor home with all the basics: full kitchen, bathroom, and more. It even had beds for the kids. Over the next few years, we traveled everywhere my husband went for work. I learned how to put together unit studies that worked for all grade levels. I taught science, social studies, and language arts to all the kids at once. I made assignments according to their grade levels. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 We studied in the morning and went outdoors in the afternoon. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before the new school year started and they would go to school, we talked about their experience. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 绝密★启用前 2025届湛江市普通高中毕业班调研测试 英语 试卷共8页，47小题，满分120分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第一部分 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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A 【1~3题答案】 【答案】1.

Holding that dream rooted at the bottom of our hearts, we’ll feel motivated whenever we encounter any difficulty. As a responsible student and citizen, my dream is to work hard and make contributions to our country in the future apart from making a difference in my personal life. It is by holding my dream in my hands that I can keep myself motivated and make steady progress. That’s all. Thank you. 第二节(满分25分) 【47题答案】 【答案】We studied in the morning and went outdoors in the afternoon. The kids were attentive in class, going all out to do their studies, knowing that something good was waiting for them in the afternoon. Seeing their improvement in their studies, I felt more confident. During the time out, we explored forests and caves, and I taught the kids about trees, plants, and wildlife in nature. The kids always wore that happy and contented smile on their faces, obviously enjoying the time spent together. Before the new school year started when they would go to school, we talked about their experience. To my surprise, they told me they had enjoyed their world classroom, telling me that the time outdoors shaped their characters. Meanwhile, with my instruction and their own effort, they didn’t miss anything academically. Hearing their words, I was overwhelmed with joy. As a mother-turned-teacher, I created a thirst for knowledge in all our kids. I have no regrets and I cherished every single minute I got to spend with my kids. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
