Does the colorful and natural scenery in the autumn attract you to travel there? We have selected four popular choices for leaf watching in America. Littleton, New Hampshire Its riverside village has a path along the water where visitors can appreciate the autumn leaves by the riverbanks. There’s also a Sunday farmers’ market and a number of antique (古玩) stores to look at. But the historic town’s biggest draw is what lies on its doorstep. To the southwest there’s White Mountain National Forest, a favourite for outdoor lovers. There are hiking trails and peaks with thick colorful forests in autumn. Bolton Landing, New York On Lake George in northern New York state, Bolton Landing is a beautiful town with a charming main street. Autumn makes its surrounding Adirondack Mountains’ forests even more attractive. The Adirondack Balloon Festival is another highlight, during which travelers can watch the more than 70 hot air balloons go up at sunrise against the leafy skyline. La Conner, Washington Since the 1940s, this place has been a gathering place for artists, with fiery red, orange, and yellow larch, poplar, and maple trees forming the town’s autumn colors, and has long been a source of inspiration for painters and writers. The restored historical buildings now house local restaurants, cafes, museums and galleries. You can walk around the town and admire a collection of local art organized by the La Conner Arts Commission each year. Greenville, Maine Colors appear earlier in the far north and visitors heading for Greenville to experience autumn on Moosehead Lake should plan on taking their trip in September or the first week of October. The lake is considered one of the best places to bathe in autumn colors in Maine. Travelers can also hike to Moxie Falls, a waterfall surrounded by leaves, to admire autumn’s beauty. 1. Which place attracts hot air balloon lovers? A. Littleton, New Hampshire. B. Bolton Landing, New York. C. La Conner, Washington. D. Greenville, Maine. 2. What can visitors do at Greenville? A. Hike to Moxie Falls. B. Go boating on Lake George. C. Buy produce from local farms. D. Have a walking tour in White Mountain National Forest. 3. What do the listed places have in common? A. They are favored by people enjoying fall leaves. B. They have many famous antique stores. C. They have exhibits of local artworks. D. They are in Britain. B Firstly, Mohiuddin was looking at global environmental issues with the hope of finding one that his entrepreneurial (企业家的) spirit could deal with. He would finally focus on plastic use, the overreliance on it in society, and the dangers of plastic pollution in the form of microplastic particles (颗粒). In particular, he wanted to find an alternative to one of the most common plastic products used today: the plastic shopping bag. According to The Better India, he started studying a biodegradable polymer (生物可降解聚合物) that was first formed and researched in the 1980s called PBAT. At the time, it was made with corn and potatoes. After identifying a suitable class of machinery to produce the PBAT bags in Gujarat, his speech on PBAT received nearly $100,000 in seed funding that allowed him to start the project. “I tried to balance both my studies and the operations of the company — from collecting raw material, helping workers to produce bags, to delivering the products in the market,” Mohiuddin told The Better India. “I used to sleep in a corner in the factory.” Overcoming bankruptcy (破产), university studies, and long-term unfinished orders, Mohiuddin’s startup company finally started to make profits, and today produces almost 500,000 bags per year, with a total revenue of $ 180,000. “I am glad I am able to contribute my part. Not having a normal college life can be tiring sometimes, but in the end, it is all worth it. I feel content when I go back to sleep. But much more needs to be done to make India plastic-free, and I will continue to strive for it,” he adds. 4. What is the primary focus of Mohiuddin’s entrepreneurial efforts? A. To develop replacements to plastic shopping bags. B. To improve traditional plastic products. C. To promote the use of corn in producing. D. To lengthen the use of plastic shopping bags. 5. What was the result of Mohiuddin’s speech on PBAT? A. He received a sum of money for his studies. B. He gained the fund to start his project. C. He got to know many investors. D. He decided to put off the project. 6. What can be inferred about Mohiuddin from paragraph 3? A. He solved many kinds of environmental issues. B. He was willing to lose personal comfort for his goals. C. He considered learning more important than business. D. He sought advice from experts for developing his business. 7. How does Mohiuddin feel about the progress he has made? A. Confused. B. Regretful. C. Satisfied. D. Challenged. C A fin whale body that was washed ashore at San Diego’s Pacific Beach was discovered to have many bite marks from killer whales, which could have contributed to its death, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). At first, NOAA researchers deemed the marks might be from sharks, but further analysis (分析) by experts showed that these were actually rake (耙子) marks, an unusual feature of killer whales, as stated by NOAA spokesperson Michael Milstein. While it is possible that killer whales played a role in the fin whale’s death, NOAA has not confirmed that they were the definitive cause. Milstein noted that there are documented instances where killer whales have chased fin whales, causing them to beach themselves in attempts to escape. This suggests that killer whales could have influenced the whale’s fate (命运), but there is no certainty that they were the direct cause of death. Additionally, NOAA reported sightings of a group of about a dozen killer whales along the Southern California coast, including San Diego. Boaters in the area filmed footage of a group of killer whales actively chasing and likely feeding on dolphins near Torrey Pines. This indicates that killer whales are currently active in the region and may be involved in various predatory (捕食性的) behaviors. The fin whale’s body was discovered on December 10. Lifeguards spent the entire day trying to drag the whale back out to sea, but despite their efforts, the body returned to shore at least once. The whale was observed bleeding from its side, and attempts to pull it away using a small boat connected to its tail were unsuccessful. Fin whales, which are the second-largest whale species on Earth after blue whales, are considered endangered and relatively few in number. These whales can weigh up to 100,000 pounds. NOAA highly values public reports regarding stranded (搁浅的) or injured sea animals. NOAA extremely appreciates such reports and encourages the public to provide information on how to report these incidents. NOAA supposes that it is time for all to work together. 8. What does the underlined word “deemed” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Complained. B. Persuaded. C. Believed. D. Advocated. 9. What could killer whales do to cause the possible death of the fin whale? A. Drag it to the shore. B. Hit it unexpectedly. C. Attack it in a group. D. Chase it until it beached itself. 10. What can we know about killer whales from paragraph 3? A. Their presence is causing concern for locals. B. They are a new threat to the local ecosystem. C. They are hardly engaging in predatory behaviors. D. They are being observed frequently near Torrey Pines. 11. What is NOAA’s attitude towards public reports? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Worried. D Low levels of vitamin (维生素) D could lead to a slower recovery process in children with broken bones, according to research to be presented at a conference this weekend. “Children need to be given well-balanced diets that include vitamin D to maintain children’s overall health and ensure efficient recovery when injuries occur,” said the study’s senior author, Dr. Jessica McQuerry of the University of Florida. McQuerry’s team examined data about 166 patients, from babies to 17-year-olds, who had broken a bone between 2015 and 2022. They found that in 61.4 percent of cases, the children had low levels of vitamin D and these children were likely to take significantly longer to recover. Professor Scarlett McNally, the deputy director of London’s Center for Perioperative Care, said, “Vitamin D helps in many body functions, including repair of bones and tissues. It is a vitamin that helps the body manage calcium which keeps your bones strong and is needed for muscles to contract. Vitamin D also has a role in immune (免疫) function, helping your body deal with infection and cancer. It also has a role in cell division—essential for tissue repair.” The study’s authors said that previous studies had focused on how vitamin D can help prevent fractures (骨折), but this new research is making up for the fact that vitamin D for children’s fractures had been largely unexplored up to this point. They recommended testing your child for vitamin D levels if a broken bone is taking a long time to recover. Vitamin D can be found in a variety of foods. Dairy products, such as milk and cheese, are particularly high in the nutrient, but it is also found in fish, eggs and some vegetables. Sunlight exposure can help the body absorb vitamin D. “Getting outside and enjoying the fresh air can do wonders for your recovery while also upping vitamin D absorption,” McQuerry said. 12. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The side effects of medicine. B. The good ways to keep fit. C. The functions of vitamin D. D. The roles of bones and tissues. 13. How does the new research differ from previous studies? A. It uncovers the secret of tasty foods. B. It offers deep insights into vitamin D. C. It focuses on teenage exercise routine. D. It provides the cure for broken bones. 14. What do the study’s authors advise parents to do? A. Eat vegetables as much as possible. B. Ask their family members to work out. C. Check vitamin D levels of their kids. D. Refuse dairy products in the supermarket. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Well-balanced Diets Help Teenagers Grow up B. Exploring Nature Plays a Key Role in Life C. Researchers Find a New Kind of Vitamin D. Vitamin D Is Vital for Children 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。 To some extent, smartphones are extensions (延伸) of our hands, but it’s easy to forget how much time we actually spend on them.

During silent reading time, I often saw them yawning (打哈欠) or looking blankly (茫然地) at their books. Their lack of enthusiasm was obvious, and it troubled me deeply. I knew the power of a good book and the worlds it could open, and I was determined to make a change. Therefore, I decided to take a brave step to cultivate (培养) a love for books in my classroom. As I thought of possible solutions, I suddenly remembered my local community library, a place that had always drawn many neighbors to read and connect. The library was always filled with people of all ages lost in their reading, discussing books, and participating in community events. This memory inspired an idea. If a community library could create such a welcoming atmosphere, why couldn’t I create a similar space in my classroom? That very weekend, I set to work. I carefully selected my favorite books from my personal collection, ranging from thrilling adventures to heartwarming tales, and even a few classic novels. I arranged the books neatly on a shelf in a corner of the classroom, placing a soft carpet to create a welcoming reading area, aiming to draw my students into the world of books. On Monday morning, as my students walked into the classroom, they noticed the new addition. “What’s this, Mr. Johnson?” asked Emily, her eyes widening with curiosity. “This, my dear students, is our very own class library corner,” I announced with a smile. “You can borrow any book you like, at any time. There’s no need for formal check-outs. Just take a book, enjoy it, and bring it back when you’re done.” Doubtful words filled the room, but I could see a little light of interest. “Really? No rules?” questioned Mark, a student. “Well, there is one rule,” I replied. “Treat books with respect and share them with your classmates.” 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。 Then I invited students to visit the class library corner. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With time going by, my efforts seemed to pay off. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 甘肃高二阶段性检测 英语 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

He would finally focus on plastic use, the overreliance on it in society, and the dangers of plastic pollution in the form of microplastic particles (颗粒). In particular, he wanted to find an alternative to one of the most common plastic products used today: the plastic shopping bag. According to The Better India, he started studying a biodegradable polymer (生物可降解聚合物) that was first formed and researched in the 1980s called PBAT. At the time, it was made with corn and potatoes. After identifying a suitable class of machinery to produce the PBAT bags in Gujarat, his speech on PBAT received nearly $100,000 in seed funding that allowed him to start the project. “I tried to balance both my studies and the operations of the company — from collecting raw material, helping workers to produce bags, to delivering the products in the market,” Mohiuddin told The Better India. “I used to sleep in a corner in the factory.” Overcoming bankruptcy (破产), university studies, and long-term unfinished orders, Mohiuddin’s startup company finally started to make profits, and today produces almost 500,000 bags per year, with a total revenue of $ 180,000. “I am glad I am able to contribute my part. Not having a normal college life can be tiring sometimes, but in the end, it is all worth it. I feel content when I go back to sleep. But much more needs to be done to make India plastic-free, and I will continue to strive for it,” he adds. 4. What is the primary focus of Mohiuddin’s entrepreneurial efforts? A. To develop replacements to plastic shopping bags. B. To improve traditional plastic products. C. To promote the use of corn in producing. D. To lengthen the use of plastic shopping bags. 5. What was the result of Mohiuddin’s speech on PBAT? A. He received a sum of money for his studies. B. He gained the fund to start his project. C. He got to know many investors. D. He decided to put off the project. 6. What can be inferred about Mohiuddin from paragraph 3? A. He solved many kinds of environmental issues. B. He was willing to lose personal comfort for his goals. C. He considered learning more important than business. D. He sought advice from experts for developing his business. 7. How does Mohiuddin feel about the progress he has made? A. Confused. B. Regretful. C. Satisfied. D. Challenged. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了Mohiuddin发挥企业家精神，为了帮助解决全球环境问题之一的塑料使用问题而做出的努力。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“He would finally focus on plastic use, the overreliance on it in society, and the dangers of plastic pollution in the form of microplastic particles (颗粒). In particular, he wanted to find an alternative to one of the most common plastic products used today: the plastic shopping bag.(他最后关注的是塑料的使用，社会对塑料的过度依赖，以及微塑料颗粒形式的塑料污染的危险。他特别想找到一种替代品，来替代如今最常用的塑料产品之一：塑料购物袋)”可知，Mohiuddin创业努力的主要重点是开发塑料购物袋的替代品。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“After identifying a suitable class of machinery to produce the PBAT bags in Gujarat, his speech on PBAT received nearly $100,000 in seed funding that allowed him to start the project.(在确定了在古吉拉特邦生产PBAT袋的合适机器类别后，他关于PBAT的演讲获得了近10万美元的种子基金，使他得以启动这个项目)”可知，在Mohiuddin关于PBAT的演讲后，他获得了启动他的项目的资金。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I tried to balance both my studies and the operations of the company — from collecting raw material, helping workers to produce bags, to delivering the products in the market,” Mohiuddin told The Better India. “I used to sleep in a corner in the factory.”(“我试图平衡我的学习和公司的运作——从收集原材料，帮助工人生产袋子，到向市场运送产品，”Mohiuddin告诉《更好的印度》。“我以前睡在工厂的一个角落里。”)”可推知，Mohiuddin为了实现自己的目标，宁愿放弃自己的舒适而奋斗。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““I am glad I am able to contribute my part. Not having a normal college life can be tiring sometimes, but in the end, it is all worth it. I feel content when I go back to sleep. But much more needs to be done to make India plastic-free, and I will continue to strive for it,” he adds.(“我很高兴我能贡献我的一部分。没有正常的大学生活有时会很累，但最终，这一切都是值得的。当我再次入睡时，我感到很满足。但要使印度摆脱塑料污染还有很多工作要做，我将继续为此而努力，”他补充说)”可知，Mohiuddin对于自己取得的进步很满足。故选C。 C A fin whale body that was washed ashore at San Diego’s Pacific Beach was discovered to have many bite marks from killer whales, which could have contributed to its death, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). At first, NOAA researchers deemed the marks might be from sharks, but further analysis (分析) by experts showed that these were actually rake (耙子) marks, an unusual feature of killer whales, as stated by NOAA spokesperson Michael Milstein. While it is possible that killer whales played a role in the fin whale’s death, NOAA has not confirmed that they were the definitive cause. Milstein noted that there are documented instances where killer whales have chased fin whales, causing them to beach themselves in attempts to escape. This suggests that killer whales could have influenced the whale’s fate (命运), but there is no certainty that they were the direct cause of death. Additionally, NOAA reported sightings of a group of about a dozen killer whales along the Southern California coast, including San Diego. Boaters in the area filmed footage of a group of killer whales actively chasing and likely feeding on dolphins near Torrey Pines. This indicates that killer whales are currently active in the region and may be involved in various predatory (捕食性的) behaviors. The fin whale’s body was discovered on December 10. Lifeguards spent the entire day trying to drag the whale back out to sea, but despite their efforts, the body returned to shore at least once. The whale was observed bleeding from its side, and attempts to pull it away using a small boat connected to its tail were unsuccessful. Fin whales, which are the second-largest whale species on Earth after blue whales, are considered endangered and relatively few in number. These whales can weigh up to 100,000 pounds. NOAA highly values public reports regarding stranded (搁浅的) or injured sea animals. NOAA extremely appreciates such reports and encourages the public to provide information on how to report these incidents. NOAA supposes that it is time for all to work together. 8. What does the underlined word “deemed” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Complained. B. Persuaded. C. Believed. D. Advocated. 9 What could killer whales do to cause the possible death of the fin whale? A. Drag it to the shore. B. Hit it unexpectedly. C. Attack it in a group. D. Chase it until it beached itself. 10. What can we know about killer whales from paragraph 3? A. Their presence is causing concern for locals. B. They are a new threat to the local ecosystem. C. They are hardly engaging in predatory behaviors. D. They are being observed frequently near Torrey Pines. 11. What is NOAA’s attitude towards public reports? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Worried. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）关于一头在圣地亚哥太平洋海滩发现的长须鲸尸体的调查结果，包括鲸鱼身上的咬痕、可能的死因、虎鲸在该地区的活动情况，以及NOAA对公众报告的重视和呼吁。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“but further analysis (分析) by experts showed that these were actually rake (耙子) marks, an unusual feature of killer whales, as stated by NOAA spokesperson Michael Milstein. (但NOAA发言人Michael Milstein表示，专家们的进一步分析显示，这些实际上是耙状痕迹，是虎鲸的一个不寻常特征)”可推测，研究人员本以为这些痕迹是鲨鱼留下的，但后来的研究认为是虎鲸造成的。由此可知，划线词deemed为“认为”之意。选项A“Complained (抱怨)”；选项B“Persuaded (劝服)”；选项C“Believed (认为)”；选项D“Advocated (提倡)”。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Milstein noted that there are documented instances where killer whales have chased fin whales, causing them to beach themselves in attempts to escape.( Milstein指出，有记录显示，虎鲸曾追逐长须鲸，导致长须鲸为逃避而搁浅)”可知，虎鲸可能一直追逐长须鲸直到它搁浅，从而可能导致其死亡。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Boaters in the area filmed footage of a group of killer whales actively chasing and likely feeding on dolphins near Torrey Pines. This indicates that killer whales are currently active in the region and may be involved in various predatory (捕食性的) behaviors.(该地区的水手拍摄到了虎鲸群在托雷松林附近积极追逐并可能捕食海豚的画面。这表明虎鲸目前在该地区活动频繁，并可能参与各种捕食行为)”可知，托雷松林附近的水手经常观察到虎鲸。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“NOAA highly values public reports regarding stranded (搁浅的) or injured sea animals. NOAA extremely appreciates such reports and encourages the public to provide information on how to report these incidents. NOAA supposes that it is time for all to work together.(NOAA非常重视公众关于搁浅或受伤海洋动物的报告。NOAA对这类报告表示高度赞赏，并鼓励公众提供有关如何报告这些事件的信息。NOAA认为，现在是时候让大家携手合作了)”可推测，NOAA对公众报告是持支持态度的。故选A。 D Low levels of vitamin (维生素) D could lead to a slower recovery process in children with broken bones, according to research to be presented at a conference this weekend. “Children need to be given well-balanced diets that include vitamin D to maintain children’s overall health and ensure efficient recovery when injuries occur,” said the study’s senior author, Dr. Jessica McQuerry of the University of Florida. McQuerry’s team examined data about 166 patients, from babies to 17-year-olds, who had broken a bone between 2015 and 2022. They found that in 61.4 percent of cases, the children had low levels of vitamin D and these children were likely to take significantly longer to recover. Professor Scarlett McNally, the deputy director of London’s Center for Perioperative Care, said, “Vitamin D helps in many body functions, including repair of bones and tissues. It is a vitamin that helps the body manage calcium which keeps your bones strong and is needed for muscles to contract. Vitamin D also has a role in immune (免疫) function, helping your body deal with infection and cancer. It also has a role in cell division—essential for tissue repair.” The study’s authors said that previous studies had focused on how vitamin D can help prevent fractures (骨折), but this new research is making up for the fact that vitamin D for children’s fractures had been largely unexplored up to this point. They recommended testing your child for vitamin D levels if a broken bone is taking a long time to recover. Vitamin D can be found in a variety of foods. Dairy products, such as milk and cheese, are particularly high in the nutrient, but it is also found in fish, eggs and some vegetables. Sunlight exposure can help the body absorb vitamin D. “Getting outside and enjoying the fresh air can do wonders for your recovery while also upping vitamin D absorption,” McQuerry said. 12. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The side effects of medicine. B. The good ways to keep fit. C. The functions of vitamin D. D. The roles of bones and tissues. 13. How does the new research differ from previous studies? A. It uncovers the secret of tasty foods. B. It offers deep insights into vitamin D. C. It focuses on teenage exercise routine. D. It provides the cure for broken bones. 14. What do the study’s authors advise parents to do? A. Eat vegetables as much as possible. B. Ask their family members to work out. C. Check vitamin D levels of their kids. D. Refuse dairy products in the supermarket. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Well-balanced Diets Help Teenagers Grow up B. Exploring Nature Plays a Key Role in Life C. Researchers Find a New Kind of Vitamin D. Vitamin D Is Vital for Children 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了维生素D对儿童骨折后恢复过程的影响，以及维生素D的来源和作用等相关知识。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Professor Scarlett McNally, the deputy director of London’s Center for Perioperative Care, said, “Vitamin D helps in many body functions, including repair of bones and tissues. It is a vitamin that helps the body manage calcium which keeps your bones strong and is needed for muscles to contract. Vitamin D also has a role in immune (免疫) function, helping your body deal with infection and cancer. It also has a role in cell division—essential for tissue repair.”(伦敦围手术期护理中心副主任Scarlett McNally教授表示：“维生素D有助于身体的多种功能，包括骨骼和组织的修复。它是一种帮助身体管理钙质的维生素，使骨骼保持强壮，并且是肌肉收缩所必需的。维生素D还在免疫功能中发挥作用，有助于身体应对感染和癌症。它还在细胞分裂中发挥作用——这是组织修复所必需的。”)”可知，本段主要讲述了Scarlett McNally教授对维生素D的看法，教授认为维生素D有助于身体管理钙质、在免疫功能中发挥作用以及在细胞分裂中发挥作用，这些内容都是在介绍维生素D的功能。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“The study’s authors said that previous studies had focused on how vitamin D can help prevent fractures (骨折), but this new research is making up for the fact that vitamin D for children’s fractures had been largely unexplored up to this point.(该研究的作者表示，以前的研究主要关注维生素D如何有助于预防骨折，但这项新研究弥补了迄今为止儿童骨折与维生素D之间关系在很大程度上未被探索的不足)”可知，之前的研究主要关注维生素D如何预防骨折，而这项新研究则侧重于维生素D对儿童骨折恢复的作用，这提供了对维生素D的深刻见解。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“They recommended testing your child for vitamin D levels if a broken bone is taking a long time to recover.(他们建议，如果骨折恢复时间过长，应检测孩子维生素D水平)”可知，研究的作者建议父母如果孩子的骨折恢复时间过长，应该检查孩子的维生素D水平。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段““Children need to be given well-balanced diets that include vitamin D to maintain children’s overall health and ensure efficient recovery when injuries occur,” said the study’s senior author, Dr. Jessica McQuerry of the University of Florida.(佛罗里达大学的Jessica McQuerry博士是该研究的主要作者，她表示：“为了保持儿童的整体健康，并确保在发生伤害时能够有效恢复，需要为儿童提供包含维生素D的均衡饮食。”)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了维生素D对儿童骨折后恢复过程的影响，以及维生素D的来源和作用等相关知识，说明了维生素D对儿童而言非常重要。选项D“Vitamin D Is Vital for Children (维生素D对儿童至关重要)”能够概括文章的主要内容。故选D。 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。 To some extent, smartphones are extensions (延伸) of our hands, but it’s easy to forget how much time we actually spend on them.

And what do I find? Nothing new.(我发现自己时不时地查看手机。我找到了什么？没什么新的)”可知，作者经常查看手机但是并没有什么新的发现。选项C“There’s not any urgent task I need to handle(我没有任何需要处理的紧急任务)”延续上文内容，指出作者经常查看手机但没有什么新发现，因为没有紧急任务需要处理，所以只是习惯性地查看手机。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文内容“If you find yourself pulling out your phone during dinner with friends, at family gatherings, or even when someone is telling you something important, this might be a sign of phone addiction.(如果你发现自己在与朋友共进晚餐、家庭聚会时，甚至当有人告诉你一些重要的事情时拿出手机，这可能是手机上瘾的迹象)”可知，上文描述了一种手机上瘾的情况。而下文“That is, when I’m about to meet with friends, I set my phone to “Do Not Disturb (干扰) ” mode or put it on airplane mode. (也就是说，当我要和朋友见面时，我把手机设置为“勿扰”模式或飞行模式)”则指出了一个解决方法。选项A“Here’s a trick I’ve found helpful(我发现了一个有用的技巧)”承上启下，承接上文手机上瘾的情况指出自己实际的一个解决方法。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据上文内容“That is, when I’m about to meet with friends, I set my phone to “Do Not Disturb (干扰) ” mode or put it on airplane mode.

During silent reading time, I often saw them yawning (打哈欠) or looking blankly (茫然地) at their books. Their lack of enthusiasm was obvious, and it troubled me deeply. I knew the power of a good book and the worlds it could open, and I was determined to make a change. Therefore, I decided to take a brave step to cultivate (培养) a love for books in my classroom. As I thought of possible solutions, I suddenly remembered my local community library, a place that had always drawn many neighbors to read and connect. The library was always filled with people of all ages lost in their reading, discussing books, and participating in community events. This memory inspired an idea. If a community library could create such a welcoming atmosphere, why couldn’t I create a similar space in my classroom? That very weekend, I set to work. I carefully selected my favorite books from my personal collection, ranging from thrilling adventures to heartwarming tales, and even a few classic novels. I arranged the books neatly on a shelf in a corner of the classroom, placing a soft carpet to create a welcoming reading area, aiming to draw my students into the world of books. On Monday morning, as my students walked into the classroom, they noticed the new addition. “What’s this, Mr. Johnson?” asked Emily, her eyes widening with curiosity. “This, my dear students, is our very own class library corner,” I announced with a smile. “You can borrow any book you like, at any time. There’s no need for formal check-outs. Just take a book, enjoy it, and bring it back when you’re done.” Doubtful words filled the room, but I could see a little light of interest. “Really? No rules?” questioned Mark, a student. “Well, there is one rule,” I replied. “Treat books with respect and share them with your classmates.” 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。 Then I invited students to visit the class library corner. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With time going by, my efforts seemed to pay off. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then I invited students to visit the class library corner. Some were hesitant, but a few brave souls stepped forward. Emily picked up a fantasy novel and started flipping through the pages. Mark, too, chose an adventure story and sat down on the carpet. Gradually, more students followed, and soon there was a buzz of excitement as they discovered books that caught their interest. With time going by, my efforts seemed to pay off. The once-boring silent reading time became a favorite part of the day. Students started sharing their thoughts on the books they read. Yawning and blank stares were replaced by animated discussions. They passionately debated the characters' motives in a mystery novel or debated the moral lessons in a fable. The class library corner not only brought books to life but also kindled a passion for reading among my students. It became a hub of intellectual exchange and a source of inspiration. Even those who were once reluctant readers began to look forward to this time, eager to explore new literary worlds and share their discoveries with their peers. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在教室里设立班级图书角的过程，以及这一举措如何改变学生们对阅读的态度，展现了作者对学生阅读兴趣培养的关注和努力。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后，我邀请学生们去参观班级图书角。”以及第二段首句内容“随着时间的推移，我的努力似乎得到了回报。”可知，第一段可描写学生们开始选择自己想读的书。 ②由第二段首句内容“随着时间的推移，我的努力似乎得到了回报。”可知，第二段可描写随着时间的推移，学生们开始热爱读书，也开始主动分享读书感受。 2.续写线索：邀请学生们去参观班级图书角——有的学生犹豫不决，有的学生则走上前去读书——越来越多的学生开始读书——随着时间的推移，孩子们开始喜欢读书——他们不仅仅讨论着书里的内容，还开始有了自己的人生理想——自己的努力终于有了回报 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①开始：start/begin ②取代：replace/take place of ③激起：kindle/arouse 情绪类 ①激动：excitement/thrill ②渴望的：eager/anxious/desperate 【点睛】【高分句型1】Gradually, more students followed, and soon there was a buzz of excitement as they discovered books that caught their interest.（运用了as引导的状语从句和that引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】Even those who were once reluctant readers began to look forward to this time, eager to explore new literary worlds and share their discoveries with their peers.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
