It’s wonderful to spend the weekend this way, lying on the beach, enjoying the peace and quiet. (1) Text 2 M: You look very tired. Come here and take a seat. (2) W: Many thanks. But I feel dizzy when sitting on the bus. I think I’ll just stay standing here. Text 3 M: I’m so nervous about the race tomorrow. W: Don’t be. You’ve practiced so much with your team. How far do you have to run? M: It’s a 1600-meter race, and my part is 400 meters. (3) I’m so worried about the first 100 meters as it’s where I’m the slowest. Text 4 W: Whenever I see you eating an ice cream, I want to take a bite of it myself! It always looks so tasty! M: Then why wouldn’t you buy some to eat? W: My doctor advised me not to eat frozen foods! (4) Text 5 M: I feel that many people cannot live without coffee. Some people I know get through two cups a day! W: I used to drink three cups a day! After seeing my doctor, I still need one cup every day. (5) Text 6 M: Hi, I’m a member of the student union at the university. My office is in the front building. Any problems, then let me know and I’ll be sure to look into it. W: Thanks. The buildings here are quite impressive. How long have you been at this university? M: This is my fifth year. I completed my history degree last year, so this is my first year without lessons and lectures to go to! (6) W: Oh, that must be great! Well, I’ve only been here for three days! The classes are said to be hard, but I think I can deal with them. The people here are just so enthusiastic! That’s why I love the place. (7) M: Glad to hear that! Well, hopefully, I’ll see you around! Text 7 M: Keep watching the lake and you’ll see movement. W: But we’ve been looking at it for the past five minutes, Grandpa, (8) and we haven’t seen a thing. M: That’s the trouble with young people these days — no patience. W: But it’s boring. Wait! What was that? Something came to the surface of the water and disappeared again! There it is again! M: I didn’t see that. Why don’t you try describing it? W: It was so scary! It had big ears and sharp teeth, so it wasn’t a fish… It was dark brown. The eyes were on the side of the animal’s head, not on top, so it wasn’t a frog. Maybe it was a snake! Or a dragon! M: No, it’s a baby mouse. I can see it swimming to the other side. (9) You are funny! W: Oh. Well, it freaked me out! (10) Text 8 M: Come in. Take a seat. W: Thank you, sir. What is it you wanted to see me about? M: You remember the story you wrote about that famous actor’s latest film? W: You mean the one about Tom Cruise? But you said no one would want to read such old news. M: Er…yes, that story. W: So, what is it? M: It is excellently written and I’m going to run it on the front page of the newspaper. (11, 12, 13) W: Really? What’s changed? Why do you like it now? M: The company owner took a look around the newspaper office today and noticed your story. He’s a huge Tom Cruise fan. He loved your story and told me to run it on tomorrow’s front page. (11, 13) W: Well, that’s wonderful news. I can get extra money if one of my stories is used on the front page. M: Yes, well, let’s hope our readers are as crazy about Tom Cruise as our owner. That will be all. W: Thank you, sir. Text 9 M: This hotel in India is thought of as the number one hotel in the world. (14) W: What? By some silly website that lists the top ten just to sell more ads? (14) M: No, by Travel + Leisure magazine. (14) W: Oh, really? They do know their stuff. (14) Hey! That looks more like a palace! M: It’s designed after the ancient palaces. W: It seems that a lot of rooms have amazing views. (15) M: Yeah, those are the suites(套房) that have direct access to private pools. But all the rooms have Wi-Fi, flat screen TVs, king-size beds, daily newspapers, and... (15) W: OK, stop talking! We’ve got to book our rooms there! M: Well, hang on a second. You don’t really like Indian food. W: But I thought they offer other choices besides Indian food. M: Maybe. Also, this part of India is pretty quiet. (16) There’s no shopping or clubbing. People go there to relax. W: That’s OK. I can go shopping anywhere. M: The rooms start at $350 per night, and those suites are $750 per night. (17) W: Whoa! I thought hotels in India were supposed to be inexpensive! Let’s give it a second thought! (17) Text 10 Welcome to Gardener’s Questions! We’re broadcasting live on the Internet.

Yours, Li Hua 续写 Early the next day, Peter slid away from home with the money. Worried and guilty, peter rushed directly to a shop, and his mind was tortured with bad consequences. He knew that spending all the money would affect both his daily life and the relationship with his mother. But the anticipation to achieve his dream prevailed. He carefully selected the paints and brushes and hurried home to start creating his work for the competition. Drawing inspiration from the enchanting forest that had captivated him for so long, he finally completed his masterpiece which brought to life those dancing fish, playful deer and melodious birds. With his eyes glowing with pride, he submitted his work. A couple of days later, Peter received an unexpected e-mail. It was sent by the competition organizer, informing him of his winning the first prize. Hardly had Peter seen the result when he jumped with joy. Tears swirling in his eyes, he shared the news with his mother and explained everything sincerely. Knowing all this, his mother threw her arms around him, a mixture of guilt and relief flooding over her. “Dear son, I am sorry. I almost ruined your dream,” she choked. From that day on, with his mom’s full support, Peter devoted himself entirely to his artistic aspirations and made continuous achievements. This experience not only helped Peter foster a stronger relationship with his mother, but also taught him the importance of persistence in the pursuit of dreams. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$高三 英语 第 1 页（共 10 页） 西南大学附中高 2025 届高三上 11 月阶段性检测 英 语 试 题 （满分：150 分；考试时间：120 分钟） 2024 年 11 月 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、班级、考场/座位号、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．答选择题时，必须使用 2B 铅笔填涂；答非选择题时，必须使用 0.5 毫米的黑色签字笔书写； 必须在题号对应的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写无效；保持答卷清洁、完整。 3．考试结束后，将答题卡交回（试题卷学生保存，以备评讲)。 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． What are the speakers probably doing?

Every morning, even before her mother awakens, she finishes cooking and cleaning before cycling 5km to run her shop alone. Over the past years, she has sold about 200 of her paintings. However, back in 2019, Rachna almost gave up on life after having to leave school due to family’s financial problems. She became depressed, thinking she would have to spend the rest of her days doing household chores. Around this time, the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) came into the picture with Project Lehar, starting to provide vocational training, and courses on entrepreneurship (创业) and life skills for young women. Project Lehar, run by AKF in partnership with The King’s Trust International, an organisation founded to tackle the crisis of youth unemployment, enables girls and young women from disadvantaged backgrounds to rediscover and realise their potential. This was a good opportunity for Rachna not just to continue her studies but also to convince her parents to drop her marriage plans. After she was admitted into college through Project Lehar, she was also given some suggestions on entrepreneurial and career prospects. One such session regarding wheat stalk painting made her fall in love with this traditional art form and her creativity was brought out. Now she is economically independent by selling wheat stalk paintings. However, Rachna is not resting on her achievements. Her shop also doubles up as a training centre where other girls from disadvantaged backgrounds like her who want to stand on their own feet get a second chance to change their lives like she did. While teaching these enthusiastic young girls is a joyful experience, what gives Rachna more pride is being chosen as a wheat stalk painting trainer by the foundation. From being a trainee under this project to now becoming its qualified trainer, Rachna’s life has come full circle. 24． What left Rachna in low spirits initially? A. Losing her favourite job. B. Doing household chores. C. Dropping out of school. D. Running the shop by herself. 25． How did Rachna benefit from Project Lehar? A. She got a degree from it. B. She had a new attitude towards marriage. C. She managed to proceed with her studies. D. She was sponsored to start her own business. 26． What brings Rachna the greatest sense of achievement? A. Expanding her business scale. B. Being selected as a trainer. C. Financing disadvantaged families. D. Teaching ambitious girls. 27． Which of the following best describes Rachna? A. Motivated and creative. B. Wealthy and independent. C. Sociable and critical. D. Talented and modest. 高三 英语 第 5 页（共 10 页） C The benefits of free time, researchers say, depend upon our beliefs about it. A new study reveals that contentment relies, at least in part, on believing that leisure activities are anything but a waste of time. According to the study, viewing leisure as wasteful prevents us from enjoying our leisure pursuits — especially pure pleasure activities such as hanging out with friends, watching TV and just relaxing. More goal-driven leisure activities, like exercise and meditation (冥想) tend to make people feel productive so they are still enjoyed when people see value in these leisure activities. In one part of the study, the researchers asked 302 people to recall what they did for Halloween, how much they enjoyed the holiday and their attitudes towards leisure in general. Those who believed leisure was wasteful enjoyed their Halloween less, especially when they engaged in activities like going to a party compared to other activities that might be fun but might also fulfil responsibilities, like trick-or-treating with their kids. In another part of the study, participants read news articles meant to convince the reader that leisure was wasteful and unproductive or leisure was important and productive. Next, they watched the “Best Funny Cat Videos 2019” and were asked how much they enjoyed it. Those who believed that leisure was wasteful or unproductive didn’t enjoy watching the videos as much as those who thought leisure time was productive and important. The results show that those who do not enjoy pleasure-driven activities are more depressed, anxious and stressed. The findings suggest happiness may be driven not only by whether people engage in leisure, but whether they find value in what they are doing. “Attitudes are no easy to change. Therefore, it may be impossible to shift beliefs about leisure overnight,” said the lead author Gabriela Tonietto. “For the people who refer to leisure as wasteful, it helps to focus on the productive ways that individual leisure activities can serve their long-term goals.” 28． Why did some participants enjoy their Halloween less? A. They had a strong passion for parties. B. They considered trick-or-treating boring. C. They preferred hanging out with friends. D. They attached great value to responsibilities. 29． What is the purpose of asking the participants to read the news articles? A. To shape their attitudes to leisure. B. To assess their reading skills. C. To introduce them to cat videos. D. To examine their productivity. 30． What is Tonietto’s suggestion on leisure? A. Seeking its potential benefits. B. Diversifying the forms of leisure. C. Reducing engagement in leisure. D. Changing our attitudes to leisure quickly. 31． What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Pursuing Leisure Tops the List. B. Enjoying Leisure Boosts Productivity. C. Designing Leisure Activities Brings Contentment. D. Considering Leisure Wasteful Reduces Happiness. 高三 英语 第 6 页（共 10 页） D Be honest: how many things you bought because of product promotion on TikTok did you actually need? In response, social media users are pushing back against unnecessary spending. This is where “de-influencing” comes in, a new TikTok trend that challenges the hype (炒作) around popular products and overconsumption. It aims to change the way we think about shopping and encourage people to pause and consider whether they really need something, rather than just buying it because it is trendy or popular. Recently, there have been many TikTok influencers that have frustrated people. They are promoting products that seem misleading, especially during tough times when money is tight. For example, US influencer Mikayla Nogueira posted a TikTok using L’Oréal’s Telescopic Lash Lift Mascara but was blamed for wearing false eyelashes in her review as part of a paid partnership. Makeup artist Rose Gallagher notes, “People are feeling tired of social media. Originally, user content was popular because it shared honest thoughts on personal purchases. Now, it’s hard to tell which reviews are genuine and which are just for profit.” Thus, what TikTok says is no longer the standard of people’s purchase choices. De-influencing emerged accordingly. While de-influencing seems new, it’s still a form of influence and can be a smart move for influencers and brands. Millie Kendall, from the British Beauty Council, points out, “De-influencing is a bit tricky. It’s telling people what to avoid but can still suggest other products.” With rising living costs, people are less likely to buy expensive items, making cheaper products more appealing. Being honest about the products and even “de-influencing” them can pay off, too. Criticising big brands might hurt short-term deals for influencers but could build their reputation for trustworthiness over time. Also, debating whether a product works can drive sales, as people want to try it themselves. So, is de-influencing here to stay? It will have its moment, yet trends come and go quickly. Once the next big product goes viral, de-influencing will be yesterday’s news. Whether de-influencing is a lasting movement or a temporary reaction, its message could make consumers become more mindful of their purchases and not splurge on big-ticket items. 32． What is de-influencing meant to do? A. To increase social media usage. B. To remind us to think twice before a purchase. C. To promote expensive brands on social media. D. To encourage us to buy more trendy products. 33． What led to de-influencing according to Paragraph 2? A. TikTok influencers wore false eyelashes. B. TikTok influencers spread genuine thoughts. C. TikTok influencers promoted unaffordable items. D. TikTok influencers advertised untrustworthy goods. 高三 英语 第 7 页（共 10 页） 34． What can be inferred about de-influencing from Paragraph 3? A. It may lessen people’s shopping desire. B. It can enable influencers to make profits. C. It has no impact on consumption choices. D. It will ruin influencers’ reputation for honesty. 35． What do the underlined words “splurge on” mean in the last paragraph? A. Select randomly. B. Review negatively. C. Buy uncontrollably. D. Sell dishonestly. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Living or collaborating with individuals who have different personalities or beliefs can be challenging. 36 Below are some strategies beneficial to healthy relationships. 37 Often, a personality conflict arises from expectations, differences in opinions, or some other underlying issues. Determining the sources of your problem with a person may help you realise that your conflict is foolish, which in turn may help you build a positive relationship with the person. Consider the other person’s perspectives. People each have their own viewpoints that are formed based on their experiences. 38 You cannot begin to change your relationship with the person until you acknowledge that former experiences do construct people’s ideas and that your truth is not the only or right view. See the positive qualities in the person. Sticking to negative thoughts and feelings about someone is exhausting. 39 Even the most difficult person possesses positive virtues. While it may take time for you to realise these qualities, recognising the good in a person can open the door to a fair chance. Limit contact with the person. Being frequently around someone intolerable can greatly affect your mindset. Cutting down or off contact with the person can help lower the stress you feel in his or her presence. Sometimes, however, engaging with them is required, whether in a professional or personal setting. 40 A. Identify the roots of your conflict. B. Free yourself from your expectations. C. If avoidance isn’t possible, do keep the interaction civil and decent. D. Everything a person has gone through brings him to where he is now. E. It can provide context information that helps you accept the person as he or she is. F. If you continuously nurture them, you will probably suffer depression and tiredness. G. Yet, developing the ability to handle these differences is vital for your mental well-being. 高三 英语 第 8 页（共 10 页） 第三部分 英语语言运用（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，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Andrew Smith spotted a baby squirrel lying weak in his backyard.

His pastime involved exploring the breathtaking forest nearby. At the heart of it lay a crystal-clear pond, where lively fish danced beneath the surface. The surroundings were alive with charming wildlife. Deer and rabbits played about, while melodious birdsong filled the air. Enchanted by the beauty and liveliness of nature, Peter resolved to become a great artist to share these fascinating scenes with the world. He attended the local primary school, but life had been challenging for Peter and his mother since his father passed away. Aware that his mother worked hard to make ends meet, Peter was hesitant to cause her any worry. While his mother recognised the importance of education, she opposed Peter’s dream of becoming an artist. She frequently said, “Being an artist can’t help a person in meeting his daily expenses.” However, Peter’s passion for art grew stronger with each passing day. Due to their financial conditions, even buying new paints was a luxury. Peter relied on a worn drawing board and limited paints for his daily practice.
