Let us learn from Oprah’s Book Club Selection about which fictions stuck with you, which stories made you laugh out loud, and which books made you want to start all over again. The Fraud by Zadie Smith This historical novel follows the 1873 Tichborne trial from the perspective of Eliza Touchet, a housemaid whose purpose was to discover the truth behind headlines. Who stood in her way? Self-important men, friends of her cousin, and old-fashioned polite society. Documenting true events, events, Smith tells a story of justice and storytelling itself. — Henry Guzman The Unsettled by Ayana Mathis Ava grew up in Bonaparte, one of the oldest Black communities. But by 1985, Bonaparte’s Black population had nearly disappeared and Ava was living in a shelter with a son that her own mother didn’t know about. The author of a previous pick from Oprah’s Book Club Selection, The Twelve Tribes of Hattie, puts together a story of a mother, a daughter, and the land that both unites and divides them. — Charley Burlock Death Valley by Melissa Broder From the author of Milk Fed comes a journey in California. With a seriously sick husband and a critically injured father in the ICU, a writer headed to the Death Valley, desperate for alone time. Instead, she found a giant cactus (仙人掌), climbed inside, and entered a landscape in which rocks talked and time stood still. Like grief itself, this book is at once absurd and wise; it will change you. — Carol V. Bell Happiness Falls by Angie Kim Everything seemed normal the morning of Mia’s father’s disappearance. But an abnormality in 0.00000003 percent of her younger brother’s DNA resulted in a condition that left him — the only one who knew what happened — unable to speak. As the mystery of her father’s disappearance mixed with mysteries of her brother’s condition, the question arose: Can we really know those we love? — Charley Burlock 1. Whose books have been picked in the Oprah’s Book Club Selection twice? A. Melissa Broder’s. B. Henry Guzmán’s. C. Ayana Mathis. D. Charley Burlock’s. 2. Which literary style is Death Valley? A. Magic realism. B. Classicism. C. Modernism. D. Expressionism. 3. What do The Fraud and Happiness Falls have in common! A. They criticize the inequality in society. B. They center on the family relationship. C. They are adapted from true life stories. D. They are presented from females’ view. B My grandmother’s dining room table was the gathering place for the whole community. The coffee was always on, and more often than not, there were some freshly-baked treats. The door was never locked. Even when my grandmother wasn’t home, she left the door open in case company stopped by. A typical night would see people crowd into the dining room. There was lots of laughter, and some tears too. Folks didn’t always agree. However, we had true concern for one another and an attempt to understand even if agreement was unlikely. It’s what I miss most about my teenage years. I didn’t realize then how quickly that was going to fade from the world. The more “advanced” we have gotten, the further we have traveled from a place where sharing leads to understanding and disagreement does not equal disrespect. I am as guilty as anyone who gives in to our digital age. For years my dinner table has had as many electronic devices present as people. The teenage years for my kids have been taken by social media instead of real experiences and relationships. In an effort to give them the newest of what our society offers, I have taken away what’s most important from them. We text from the same room, share YouTube videos, and communicate in broken sentences. Weeks ago, I held a family meeting to introduce a dinner plan — limit digital interaction. And things are starting to change. That, with a strict no electronics at the dinner table policy has led to conversations. We have discovered there isn’t much on social media when everyone else is home. We have discovered that there is only so much TV anyone can stomach before searching for a book, or better yet, listening to each other. Our house has started to be like the home I grew up in. 4. What do we know about grandmother’s dining room? A. It hosted baking lessons in the community. B. It witnessed moments of joy and displeasure. C. It presented a depressing dining atmosphere. D. It was rarely open during the public holidays. 5. What does the author miss most about her teenage years? A. Innocence. B. Agreement. C. Laughter. D. Interaction. 6. Which might be a consequence of giving in to the digital age? A. Shallow engagement. B. Valueless experiences. C. Unreliable connections. D. Failed relationships. 7. What did the dinner plan bring about? A. Family talks. B. Physical health. C. Tasty cuisines. D. Strict disciplines. C Driverless taxis operated by AI are gradually becoming a common sight. For instance, the Chinese city of Wuhan has seen an explosive growth of such taxis, with a peak of over 20 orders per car in a single day. Consumers prefer it for finding themselves paying less for the Apollo Go, the robotaxi operated by Chinese tech group Baidu, than traditional ones run by human drivers. In Wuhan, a 10-kilometer ride in a self-driving robotaxi costs between 4 and 16 yuan ($0.55-$2.22), while a regular service costs between 18 and 30 yuan ($2.48-$4.13). Apollo Go started offering fully driverless services on open roads and received the permits to collect fees from the passengers on August 8, 2022. According to Baidu’s financial report, Apollo Go has provided over 6million rides as of April, 2024. The emergence of AI-driven technology is bound to reshape industries, and at the forefront are autonomous vehicles. With the gradual promotion of unmanned vehicles, many wonder: Is unmanned driving taking away the livelihood of taxi drivers? Will it eventually replace drivers? Millions of individuals earn their livelihoods in the transportation industry. Apart from taxi drivers, there are also long-haul (长途的) truckers and local delivery drivers. According to a McKinsey report, self-driving cars could represent as much as 15 percent of global vehicle sales by 2030. This shift will not only impact traditional driving roles but also spread across sectors linked to transportation. As humanity step into the AI era, it is crucial to ensure that this transformation is smooth, human-centered, and provides ordinary people with sufficient preparation time. The shift from human drivers to AI in transportation is not just a technological matter but a deeply human one. While autonomous transportation offers great potential, it also presents significant challenges. It is the duty of professionals to adjust, promote, and guarantee that AI attaches importance to the well-being of humanity and technologies are directed toward goodness, enabling AI to better serve humanity. 8. Which makes Apollo Go popular in Wuhan? A. Easy operation. B. Great convenience. C. Favorable price. D. Novel appearance. 9. Why does the promotion of robotaxi concern the public? A It may bring unexpected road safety issues B. It may negatively impact the labor market. C. It may increase passengers’ financial burden. D. It may slow innovation in automobile industry. 10. What can be inferred about AI in transportation? A. It generates a handsome profit. B. It improves the road conditions. C. It is in need of mindful progress. D. It poses challenges to passengers. 11. Which might be the most suitable title for the text? A. The Pros and Cons of Robotaxis B. Apollo Go Wins Hearts in Wuhan C. Historical Breakthrough in AI Industry D. AI Drive Should Be Human-centered D There’s been a lot of talk about mindfulness, but it’s possible that future fulfilment is more about being in “flow”. And if you thought they were just catchwords describing the same thing, think again. Sports psychologist Gavin Freeman, whose expertise over 25 years includes working with the Australian Institute of Sport ( AIS), as well as across several Olympic campaigns and with professional leagues around the world, said mindfulness and flow “are not as related as we think” because compared with mindfulness, flow is an extremely active state of mind. Mr. Freeman said flow was achieved by reflecting on np past experiences, combined with “sustained appropriate focus” and a little positive self-talk. And while most people might change the priority of those three elements, he was adamant that experience comes first. “Effective training history is the most important thing you can do,” he said. “I would say to kids that it doesn’t matter if you’re getting a little frustrated. I once had a session with an eight-year-old, working on why she got frustrated on the soccer field. “It all focused around her building a training history and...not focusing on her thoughts, because it’s hard to change a person’s thoughts.” For those ready to realize sports-related accomplishments, Freeman encouraged kids to talk to a coach or trainer for help getting started. “Young children enter flow with relative ease,” Freeman said. “With expert guidance, little kids very often reach that state of deep absorption and focus. They’re focusing on one thing that’s the thing we want to return to.” Creating a “container” was “the most important thing” for Freeman. His practical tricks included wearing headphones even if you weren’t listening to anything, because it stopped people from interrupting you. He also suggested using a timer and switching off devices. He described the flow state as a door opening. “It’s the best feeling, knowing you are focused.” 12. What does Freeman think about mindfulness? A. It is a rather passive mental state. B. It is achieved by past experiences. C. It is a similar mental state to flow. D. It is associated with positive talks. 13. Which can best replace the underlined word “adamant” in paragraph 3? A. Concerned. B. Convinced. C. Astonished. D. Impressed. 14 What does Freeman advise kids to do for sports success? A. Adjust their inner thoughts. B. Focus on training history. C. Consult with professionals. D. Receive training with ease. 15 What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A. How to describe the flow state. B. How to apply the practical tricks. C. How to find the important things. D. How to avoid digital interruption. 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Beat the Summer Heat Temperatures are on the rise!

This was my experience last year. My husband, Ethan, faced layoff, while I was still employed but only on a part-time basis. The uncertainty about our future weighed heavily on my mind. It was during this time that something seemingly insignificant like a signpost began to really bother me. A relic from the previous homeowners, the signpost had already seen better days when we moved in. The past years hadn’t been kind to it. The paint had faded and the metal pole supporting the sign was rusted (生锈的). The pole had been struck by passing vehicles, resulting in a slight bend. Despite this, since it could still show directions and our visitors never complained, there seemed to be no urgent need for a replacement. However, every time I laid eyes on it, it served as a constant reminder of all the challenges in my life. “I wish we had a better signpost,” I caught myself thinking as I pulled out of the driveway one morning. It was more of a fleeting thought than a sincere prayer. Perhaps I would have completely forgotten about it if not for what happened next. When I got home from work, Ethan informed me, “Our neighbor Benjamin texted. A girl drove straight into our signpost. Completely knocked it down.” “Is she alright?” I asked. “No idea. Benjamin just saw it from a distance.” Ethan replied. Considering the current state of our finances, buying a new signpost was definitely not something we could afford. I let out a sigh, realizing the truth behind the saying: “Be careful what you wish for.” The next morning, I pushed the thought of the signpost aside and prepared for the day ahead. Getting into my car, I drove into the driveway. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Where our rusted signpost had once stood was a better one. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “You didn’t check the back of the signpost, did you?” Ethan greeted me at dusk. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 机密★启用前【考试时间：10月30日08：00—10：00】 昆明市第一中学2025届高三年级第三次联考 英语试卷 本试卷共四个部分。考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚，并认真核准条形码上的准考证号、姓名、考场号、座位号及科目，在规定的位置上贴好条形码。 2.每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。答在试卷上的答案无效。 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.

(相反，她发现了一个巨大的仙人掌，爬进去，进入了一个岩石说话，时间静止的景观。就像悲伤本身一样，这本书既荒谬又明智；它会改变你。)”可以推断，《死亡谷》一书采用了魔幻现实主义的文学风格。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据The Fraud by Zadie Smith部分中“This historical novel follows the 1873 Tichborne trial from the perspective of Eliza Touchet, a housemaid whose purpose was to discover the truth behind headlines. Who stood in her way? Self-important men, friends of her cousin, and old-fashioned polite society. (这部历史小说讲述了1873年蒂奇伯恩审判的故事，主人公是一名女仆，她的目的是发现头条新闻背后的真相。谁挡了她的路？自以为是的人，她表姐的朋友，还有老式的上流社会。)”以及Happiness Falls by Angie Kim部分“Everything seemed normal the morning of Mia’s father’s disappearance. But an abnormality in 0.00000003 percent of her younger brother’s DNA resulted in a condition that left him — the only one who knew what happened — unable to speak. As the mystery of her father’s disappearance mixed with mysteries of her brother’s condition, the question arose: Can we really know those we love? (米娅父亲失踪的那天早上，一切似乎都很正常。但她弟弟0.00000003%的DNA异常导致他——唯一知道发生了什么事的人——无法说话。当她父亲的失踪之谜与她哥哥的病情之谜交织在一起时，一个问题出现了：我们真的能了解我们所爱的人吗？)”可知，这两本书都是从女性的角度呈现的。故选D。 B My grandmother’s dining room table was the gathering place for the whole community. The coffee was always on, and more often than not, there were some freshly-baked treats. The door was never locked. Even when my grandmother wasn’t home, she left the door open in case company stopped by. A typical night would see people crowd into the dining room. There was lots of laughter, and some tears too. Folks didn’t always agree. However, we had true concern for one another and an attempt to understand even if agreement was unlikely. It’s what I miss most about my teenage years. I didn’t realize then how quickly that was going to fade from the world. The more “advanced” we have gotten, the further we have traveled from a place where sharing leads to understanding and disagreement does not equal disrespect. I am as guilty as anyone who gives in to our digital age. For years my dinner table has had as many electronic devices present as people. The teenage years for my kids have been taken by social media instead of real experiences and relationships. In an effort to give them the newest of what our society offers, I have taken away what’s most important from them. We text from the same room, share YouTube videos, and communicate in broken sentences. Weeks ago, I held a family meeting to introduce a dinner plan — limit digital interaction. And things are starting to change. That, with a strict no electronics at the dinner table policy has led to conversations. We have discovered there isn’t much on social media when everyone else is home. We have discovered that there is only so much TV anyone can stomach before searching for a book, or better yet, listening to each other. Our house has started to be like the home I grew up in. 4. What do we know about grandmother’s dining room? A. It hosted baking lessons in the community. B. It witnessed moments of joy and displeasure. C. It presented a depressing dining atmosphere. D. It was rarely open during the public holidays. 5. What does the author miss most about her teenage years? A. Innocence. B. Agreement. C. Laughter. D. Interaction. 6. Which might be a consequence of giving in to the digital age? A. Shallow engagement. B. Valueless experiences. C. Unreliable connections. D. Failed relationships. 7. What did the dinner plan bring about? A. Family talks. B. Physical health. C. Tasty cuisines. D. Strict disciplines. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者回忆祖母家温馨的聚会氛围，反思现代数字时代对人际关系的影响，并采取措施恢复家庭交流的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A typical night would see people crowd into the dining room. There was lots of laughter, and some tears too.(一个典型的夜晚，人们会挤进餐厅。那里有很多笑声，也有一些眼泪)”可知，祖母的餐厅见证了欢乐与悲伤的时刻。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Folks didn’t always agree. However, we had true concern for one another and an attempt to understand even if agreement was unlikely.(人们并不总是意见一致。然而，我们彼此之间有着真正的关心，并试图理解对方，即使达成共识的可能性不大)”及第二段中“It’s what I miss most about my teenage years.(这是我青少年时期最怀念的事情)”可知，作者最怀念的是青少年时期的互动和交流。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I am as guilty as anyone who gives in to our digital age. For years my dinner table has had as many electronic devices present as people. The teenage years for my kids have been taken by social media instead of real experiences and relationships. In an effort to give them the newest of what our society offers, I have taken away what’s most important from them. We text from the same room, share YouTube videos, and communicate in broken sentences(我和所有向数字时代屈服的人一样内疚。多年来，我餐桌上的电子设备和人一样多。我的孩子们的青少年时期都被社交媒体占据了，而不是真正的经历和关系。为了让他们了解我们社会提供的最新信息，我拿走了他们最重要的东西。我们在同一个房间发短信，分享YouTube视频，断断续续地交流。)”可推断，屈服于数字时代可能会导致人与人之间浅层次的社交参与。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“That, with a strict no electronics at the dinner table policy has led to conversations.(严格的餐桌无电子设备政策促进了交谈)”可知，晚餐计划带来了家庭谈话。故选A。 C Driverless taxis operated by AI are gradually becoming a common sight. For instance, the Chinese city of Wuhan has seen an explosive growth of such taxis, with a peak of over 20 orders per car in a single day. Consumers prefer it for finding themselves paying less for the Apollo Go, the robotaxi operated by Chinese tech group Baidu, than traditional ones run by human drivers. In Wuhan, a 10-kilometer ride in a self-driving robotaxi costs between 4 and 16 yuan ($0.55-$2.22), while a regular service costs between 18 and 30 yuan ($2.48-$4.13). Apollo Go started offering fully driverless services on open roads and received the permits to collect fees from the passengers on August 8, 2022. According to Baidu’s financial report, Apollo Go has provided over 6million rides as of April, 2024. The emergence of AI-driven technology is bound to reshape industries, and at the forefront are autonomous vehicles. With the gradual promotion of unmanned vehicles, many wonder: Is unmanned driving taking away the livelihood of taxi drivers? Will it eventually replace drivers? Millions of individuals earn their livelihoods in the transportation industry. Apart from taxi drivers, there are also long-haul (长途的) truckers and local delivery drivers. According to a McKinsey report, self-driving cars could represent as much as 15 percent of global vehicle sales by 2030. This shift will not only impact traditional driving roles but also spread across sectors linked to transportation. As humanity step into the AI era, it is crucial to ensure that this transformation is smooth, human-centered, and provides ordinary people with sufficient preparation time. The shift from human drivers to AI in transportation is not just a technological matter but a deeply human one. While autonomous transportation offers great potential, it also presents significant challenges. It is the duty of professionals to adjust, promote, and guarantee that AI attaches importance to the well-being of humanity and technologies are directed toward goodness, enabling AI to better serve humanity. 8. Which makes Apollo Go popular in Wuhan? A. Easy operation. B. Great convenience. C. Favorable price. D. Novel appearance. 9. Why does the promotion of robotaxi concern the public? A. It may bring unexpected road safety issues B. It may negatively impact the labor market. C. It may increase passengers’ financial burden. D. It may slow innovation in automobile industry. 10. What can be inferred about AI in transportation? A. It generates a handsome profit. B. It improves the road conditions. C. It is in need of mindful progress. D. It poses challenges to passengers. 11. Which might be the most suitable title for the text? A. The Pros and Cons of Robotaxis B. Apollo Go Wins Hearts in Wuhan C. Historical Breakthrough in AI Industry D. AI Drive Should Be Human-centered 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11.

(消费者之所以青睐它，是因为他们发现自己为中国科技集团百度 (Baidu) 运营的“Apollo Go”无人驾驶出租车支付的费用低于由人类司机驾驶的传统出租车。)”可知，Apollo Go在武汉受欢迎的原因是价格优惠。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“With the gradual promotion of unmanned vehicles, many wonder: Is unmanned driving taking away the livelihood of taxi drivers? Will it eventually replace drivers? Millions of individuals earn their livelihoods in the transportation industry. (随着无人驾驶汽车的逐步推广，很多人不禁要问：无人驾驶是否夺走了出租车司机的生计？它最终会取代司机吗？数以百万计的人在运输行业谋生。)”可知，无人驾驶汽车的推广让公众担心的是它对劳动力市场可能产生的负面影响。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The shift from human drivers to AI in transportation is not just a technological matter but a deeply human one. While autonomous transportation offers great potential, it also presents significant challenges. It is the duty of professionals to adjust, promote, and guarantee that AI attaches importance to the well-being of humanity and technologies are directed toward goodness, enabling AI to better serve humanity. (交通运输从人类司机向人工智能的转变不仅是一个技术问题，更是一个深刻的人性问题。虽然自动驾驶带来了巨大的潜力，但也带来了重大的挑战。专业人士有责任调整、促进和保证人工智能重视人类的福祉，技术朝着好的方向发展，使人工智能更好地为人类服务。)”由此可推断出，交通运输中的人工智能需要谨慎的发展。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Driverless taxis operated by AI are gradually becoming a common sight. For instance, the Chinese city of Wuhan has seen an explosive growth of such taxis, with a peak of over 20 orders per car in a single day. (人工智能驾驶的无人驾驶出租车正在逐渐成为一种常态。例如，中国武汉市的这种出租车出现了爆炸式增长，每辆车在一天内的订单超过20个。)”和最后一段“The shift from human drivers to AI in transportation is not just a technological matter but a deeply human one. While autonomous transportation offers great potential, it also presents significant challenges. It is the duty of professionals to adjust, promote, and guarantee that AI attaches importance to the well-being of humanity and technologies are directed toward goodness, enabling AI to better serve humanity. (交通运输从人类司机向人工智能的转变不仅是一个技术问题，更是一个深刻的人性问题。虽然自动驾驶带来了巨大的潜力，但也带来了重大的挑战。专业人士有责任调整、促进和保证人工智能重视人类的福祉，技术朝着好的方向发展，使人工智能更好地为人类服务。)”以及纵观全文可知，文章主要讨论了无人驾驶出租车在武汉的流行、对劳动力市场的影响以及未来发展的考虑，强调了人工智能在交通运输中的发展需要谨慎，以人为本，所以D项“AI Drive Should Be Human-centered (人工智能驾驶应以人为本)”为本文最好标题。故选D项。 D There’s been a lot of talk about mindfulness, but it’s possible that future fulfilment is more about being in “flow”. And if you thought they were just catchwords describing the same thing, think again. Sports psychologist Gavin Freeman, whose expertise over 25 years includes working with the Australian Institute of Sport ( AIS), as well as across several Olympic campaigns and with professional leagues around the world, said mindfulness and flow “are not as related as we think” because compared with mindfulness, flow is an extremely active state of mind. Mr. Freeman said flow was achieved by reflecting on np past experiences, combined with “sustained appropriate focus” and a little positive self-talk. And while most people might change the priority of those three elements, he was adamant that experience comes first. “Effective training history is the most important thing you can do,” he said. “I would say to kids that it doesn’t matter if you’re getting a little frustrated. I once had a session with an eight-year-old, working on why she got frustrated on the soccer field. “It all focused around her building a training history and...not focusing on her thoughts, because it’s hard to change a person’s thoughts.” For those ready to realize sports-related accomplishments, Freeman encouraged kids to talk to a coach or trainer for help getting started. “Young children enter flow with relative ease,” Freeman said. “With expert guidance, little kids very often reach that state of deep absorption and focus. They’re focusing on one thing that’s the thing we want to return to.” Creating a “container” was “the most important thing” for Freeman. His practical tricks included wearing headphones even if you weren’t listening to anything, because it stopped people from interrupting you. He also suggested using a timer and switching off devices. He described the flow state as a door opening. “It’s the best feeling, knowing you are focused.” 12. What does Freeman think about mindfulness? A. It is a rather passive mental state. B. It is achieved by past experiences. C. It is a similar mental state to flow. D. It is associated with positive talks. 13. Which can best replace the underlined word “adamant” in paragraph 3? A. Concerned. B. Convinced. C. Astonished. D. Impressed. 14. What does Freeman advise kids to do for sports success? A. Adjust their inner thoughts. B. Focus on training history. C. Consult with professionals. D. Receive training with ease. 15. What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A. How to describe the flow state. B. How to apply the practical tricks. C. How to find the important things. D. How to avoid digital interruption. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了运动心理学家加文·弗里曼对于“正念”和“心流”的看法，以及他对孩子们如何实现运动相关的成就的建议。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Sports psychologist Gavin Freeman, whose expertise over 25 years includes working with the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS), as well as across several Olympic campaigns and with professional leagues around the world, said mindfulness and flow “are not as related as we think” because compared with mindfulness, flow is an extremely active state of mind.(运动心理学家加文·弗里曼（Gavin Freeman）拥有超过25年的专业知识，包括与澳大利亚体育研究所（AIS）合作，以及参与过几届奥运会和世界各地的职业联赛。他说，正念和心流“并不像我们想象的那么相关”，因为与正念相比，心流是一种极其活跃的心理状态)”可知，心流是一种极其活跃的心理状态。由此推知弗里曼认为正念是一种相当被动的精神状态。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文“Mr. Freeman said flow was achieved by reflecting on np past experiences, combined with “sustained appropriate focus” and a little positive self-talk. And while most people might change the priority of those three elements(弗里曼说，心流是通过反思过去的经历，加上“持续适当的专注”和一点积极的自我对话来实现的。虽然大多数人可能会改变这三个要素的优先级)”可知，此处是while引导的让步状语从句，和后文表转折，所以是“虽然大多数人可能会改变这三个要素的优先级，但是他坚持认为体验是第一位的”之意。由此可知，划线词adamant应是“坚定的”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“For those ready to realize sports-related accomplishments, Freeman encouraged kids to talk to a coach or trainer for help getting started.(对于那些准备实现体育相关成就的孩子，弗里曼鼓励他们向教练或培训师寻求帮助)”可知，弗里曼建议孩子们咨询专业人士以取得体育上的成功。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Creating a “container” was “the most important thing” for Freeman. His practical tricks included wearing headphones even if you weren’t listening to anything, because it stopped people from interrupting you. He also suggested using a timer and switching off devices. He described the flow state as a door opening. “It’s the best feeling, knowing you are focused.”(对弗里曼来说，创造一个“容器”是“最重要的事情”。他的实用技巧包括，即使你没有在听任何东西，也要戴上耳机，因为这样可以防止别人打断你。他还建议使用计时器并关闭设备。他将心流状态描述为一扇打开的门。“知道自己很专注，这是最好的感觉。”)”可知，本段主要介绍了弗里曼如何应用实用技巧来避免干扰，从而达到心流状态。故选B项。 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Beat the Summer Heat Temperatures are on the rise!

My husband, Ethan, faced layoff, while I was still employed but only on a part-time basis. The uncertainty about our future weighed heavily on my mind. It was during this time that something seemingly insignificant like a signpost began to really bother me. A relic from the previous homeowners, the signpost had already seen better days when we moved in. The past years hadn’t been kind to it. The paint had faded and the metal pole supporting the sign was rusted (生锈的). The pole had been struck by passing vehicles, resulting in a slight bend. Despite this, since it could still show directions and our visitors never complained, there seemed to be no urgent need for a replacement. However, every time I laid eyes on it, it served as a constant reminder of all the challenges in my life. “I wish we had a better signpost,” I caught myself thinking as I pulled out of the driveway one morning. It was more of a fleeting thought than a sincere prayer. Perhaps I would have completely forgotten about it if not for what happened next. When I got home from work, Ethan informed me, “Our neighbor Benjamin texted. A girl drove straight into our signpost. Completely knocked it down.” “Is she alright?” I asked. “No idea. Benjamin just saw it from a distance.” Ethan replied. Considering the current state of our finances, buying a new signpost was definitely not something we could afford. I let out a sigh, realizing the truth behind the saying: “Be careful what you wish for.” The next morning, I pushed the thought of the signpost aside and prepared for the day ahead. Getting into my car, I drove into the driveway. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Where our rusted signpost had once stood was a better one. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “You didn’t check the back of the signpost, did you?” Ethan greeted me at dusk. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Where our rusted signpost had once stood was a better one. To my surprise the new signpost was beautifully crafted and looked like it belonged to a modern art exhibit. The pole was sturdy, freshly painted, and well-aligned, making me wonder who had placed this gift at our doorstep. With curiosity piqued, I approached it and noticed a note attached to it — a simple card with handwritten words: “Sorry for the accident. I hope this adds a little brightness to your day. —Audree.” “You didn’t check the back of the signpost, did you?” Ethan greeted me at dusk. Confused, I walked back to the signpost and turned it around. Attached delicately to the back was a small potted plant, its green leaves fresh and vibrant. It was accompanied by a second note, reading, “Life is full of unexpected turns. Let this plant be a reminder that new beginnings can blossom from any setback.” In that moment, I felt a warmth spreading through my chest, realizing that kindness from a stranger had turned a setback into an unexpected blessing. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者在家庭面临经济困难时，一个旧的路标被意外撞倒，之后收到了一个陌生人送来的精美新路标及植物，带来了意外的温暖和启示的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句“我们生锈的路标曾经矗立的地方是一个更好的地方。”可知，第一段可描写新路标的外观及附带的便条内容，以及作者对此感到的惊讶和好奇。 ②由第二段首句““你没有检查路标的背面，是吗？”Ethan在黄昏向我打招呼。”可知，第二段可描写在丈夫的提示下，作者发现了路标背面的小盆栽及另一张便条，以及这带给她的感悟和情感变化。 2.续写线索：旧路标——意外事故——新路标出现——发现背面的礼物——感悟生活中的意外转折——感受到陌生人的善意 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①发现：notice a note/discover/find ②接近：approach/get close to ③放置：place/put/set 情绪类 ①令我吃惊的是：to my surprise/to my amazement ②感到困惑的：confused/puzzled 【点睛】【高分句型1】The pole was sturdy, freshly painted, and well-aligned, making me wonder who had placed this gift at our doorstep.（运用了现在分词作状语和who引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】In that moment, I felt a warmth spreading through my chest, realizing that kindness from a stranger had turned a setback into an unexpected blessing.（运用了现在分词作状语和that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
