B Now Isaac Winfield, a kind-hearted 11-year-old boy, needs to buy more sheds (棚) to store the donated items. “We’d always donated to the local food banks, and during the pandemic, he helped deliver food packages to the needy,” said his mom Claire, who added that recently Isaac had moved to a specialist school that didn’t have a similar program, leaving him frustrated that he couldn’t continue to help people. “But the tough boy didn’t stop. He said, ‘We’ll give them food at my house,” said Claire. “He used his own birthday money to launch a food bank service which he runs from his garden shed. He fills bags of groceries (食品杂货) and hands them out to the needy around his hometown.” His parents give him a lift at weekends, but sometimes it’s Isaac who takes the bags of groceries to people on foot. Those in need are also able to go to Isaac’s food bank shed, which is open round the clock, and help themselves. “At the beginning, he put all the food he bought in a little greenhouse with some lights and started offering it from there,” Claire remembered. “Someone spotted it and put it on one of those Facebook community sites and it went mad. The greenhouse lasted four weeks before I had to go and get a shed because we ran out of room.” Now Isaac is planning to open his second food bank in the town and has a local charity sponsoring (赞助) him. Isaac was born with a rare chromosome disease (罕见的染色体疾病), and the food bank has helped “massively” with his confidence, as he can’t read or write. “For his 11th birthday, he just wants to get as many donations in as possible to help as many people as he can,” said Claire. Isaac has now been nominated (提名) for a local business award. 4. What does the underlined word “frustrated” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Confused. B. Surprised. C. Upset. D. Satisfied. 5 What do we know about Isaac’s food bank? A. It was established at his new school. B. It was funded by a local charity. C. It hires locals to deliver food. D. It is open 24 hours a day. 6. How did locals react to Isaac’s food bank according to paragraph 4? A. They considered it as useless. B. They gave some advice on it. C. They showed great interest in it. D. They donated lots of money to it. 7. What does the food bank do for Isaac? A. It cures him of a disease. B. It improves his confidence. C. It costs him too much money. D. It has a bad influence on his studies. C In 1879 Mark Twain wrote an idea he had for a story in his notebook: “A poor man was loaned a £1,000,000 note for 30 days and he got rich on it because nobody could change it.” In the following years, he thought of the idea occasionally, putting down the title as a reminder or outlining a related idea, but nothing came of it. A decade later, financial problems at Charles L. Webster & Co., the publishing firm (公司) founded and owned by Twain, had become serious. The company’s balance sheet was destroyed by ongoing investments (投资) in a hopeless typesetting machine and by disappointing sales. To keep the company afloat, he had to continue investing his own money in it. Things didn’t get better. In the summer of 1891, worried by the dwindling income and rising debts (减少的收入和增加的债务), Mark Twain and his family left their large house, sold the horses, laid off their servants, and took off for Europe so that the internationally celebrated author could cash in on his name abroad. In addition to writing travel articles for McClure’s Magazine and the New York newspaper The Sun, Twain earned money by giving readings in various European cities. Eventually, he earned enough to pay back all the debts. While having an expensive lifestyle in Europe, dining with important persons, and enjoying the widespread attention of the media, Samuel Clemens, the man behind the personality known as Mark Twain, was very poor; the future that awaited him included the closure of his publishing firm and personal bankruptcy (破产). As a virtually penniless man everyone assumed was rich, he doubtlessly realized the absurdity (荒唐) of his situation and the time must have seemed right to take that idea of a million-pound note and turn it into a story about the nature of wealth. He finished the story while in Florence during the fall of 1892 and sent it off to the editors of Century Magazine. 8 What was Mark Twain’s idea for a story in 1879? A. A man develops a company from nothing. B. A poor man becomes rich by working hard. C. A man with a million pound loan becomes rich. D. A wealthy man loses everything and becomes homeless. 9. What happened to Mark Twain’s publishing firm according to paragraph 2? A. It opened several overseas branches. B It got into financial difficulties. C. It faced plenty of competition. D. It published many bestsellers. 10. Why did Mark Twain travel to Europe? A. To experience a different lifestyle. B. To escape from paying his debts. C. To sell his new books. D. To make money. 11. What inspired Mark Twain to complete the story occurring to him in 1879? A. His desire for wealth. B. The media attention he got. C. The situation he found himself in. D. His meetings with important persons. D Child-focused financial tech services — apps and banks designed to educate and teach children about finance — are on a mission to educate the masses from a very young age. And they’re growing fast. GoHenry has got a customer base of over 2 million in the UK and the US. Now, the firm is hoping to conquer continental Europe (欧洲大陆) with its acquisition (收购) of Pixpay, a leader in teen banking in France and Spain with nearly 200,000 members. “We’re hugely excited to help further our mission to make every kid and teen smarter with money.” Louise Hill, cofounder of GoHenry said. Launched in 2012, GoHenry is a financial education app and offers prepaid debit card (借记卡) targeted at 6-18 year-olds, featuring “gamified money lessons” with parental oversight (照管). Pixpay, meanwhile, offers a replacement for banks for children young as 10. It offers them a Mastercard payment card and a mobile app, enabling them to pay, get paid, save money or even get discounts on their favourite things. One of the many reasons for the success of the child-centred financial tech industry is its ability to keep up with the changing times. Children today are given easier access than ever to buying goods. Hill said one of the key inspirations behind founding GoHenry was finding herself “trying to explain to my children at home that by clicking the download button on iTunes they were spending money”. “They just didn’t understand it, and the move to cashless payment and the popularity of online shopping has just made the problem worse.” If left unaddressed, poor financial literacy (能力) caused by limited education can lead to money issues in the future. GoHenry and similar financial education services are, to some extent, filling the gap left by the lack of financial literacy caused by the British education system offering parents the tools to educate their children about the value of money. 12. What does GoHenry hope to do after buying Pixpay? A. Launch a financial education app for teenagers in the UK. B. Offer more gamified money lessons to kids in the US. C. Get to know about teen banking in France and Spain. D. Have more young customers in Europe. 13. What can kids as young as 10 do with Pixpay? A. Design their own mobile apps. B. Buy some things at a lower price. C. Draw money from different banks. D. Play games without their parents’ permission. 14. What made Hill start GoHenry? A. A family talk. B. A trip with her children. C. An attempt to use iTunes. D. An online shopping experience. 15. What message is mainly shown in the last paragraph? A. Parents have to be educated properly. B. Money issues are worsening day by day. C. The British education system is a total failure. D. Financial knowledge needs to be readily accessible. 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。 As parents, we want our kids to be carefree for as long as possible. ____16____ Think again. Experts agree that by the time kids are tackling (应付) basic math at school, they’re ready to learn more about money. Teaching them the benefits of saving money from an early age helps set them up for a lifetime of financial security (安全). The earlier kids start, the sooner they can make saving a habit. Spending is easy, but learning how not to spend money is hard. The earlier kids learn how to save money, the more it will become a part of their value system and a habit. ____17____ Saving money helps kids become self-reliant (自立的) and independent. It may be easier for kids to ask for some money, but do you know what feels better? Not needing to ask for permission. ____18____ That’s a powerful feeling. ____19____ Discipline (自制力) and self-control can be difficult for anyone, especially when it comes to money. The fact is, we won’t always be able to afford the things we want right away — at least not without going into debt. But kids who learn self-control are less likely to have credit problems later in life. Kids can practise having an emergency fund. ____20____ If kids are able to dip into (动用) their own emergency fund when life goes sideways, it can build the confidence needed to weather life’s surprises. A. Why is saving money early important? B. Kids need to keep track of their own funds. C. Kids aren’t ready to learn about saving money, right? D. Kids knowing how to save money are more likely to stay out of debt. E. Good attitudes toward money mean having a little set-aside for the unexpected. F. By saving money, kids will realise that they can get what they want by themselves. G. Experts say kids tend to develop their financial habits between the ages of six and 12. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A driver was praised for returning a lost wallet containing about $500 in cash, as well as several bank cards.

It is home to thousands of animals, like bright blue and yellow macaws. River dolphins swim and play in the water, and there are many different coloured fish. In one town, a 13-year-old boy named Rhenan walks along the river every day. But looking at the river makes him worry because there is trash (垃圾) everywhere. He sees plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages. The water looks dark and ugly. At school, Rhenan asks about the dirty river. “You wouldn’t want trash in your house,” says his teacher. “Think about the poor animals!” For days, Rhenan couldn’t stop thinking about the river. It doesn’t seem right to him that this big and powerful river is filled with trash. “It’s hurting the animals in my area,” he thinks. “And it’s also hurting the families who live here.” Then Rhenan has an idea. The next morning, Rhenan talks to his mother about his plan for the river. He wants to go around his town and ask for everyone’s help. Maybe if they all work together, they could clean up the river! Rhenan’s mother loves his idea. “I believe the most important thing for you, Rhenan, is learning how to change things that you care about. That will stay with you forever.” she says. She tells him she will help him along the way. The next day, Rhenan goes to the police department. Next he goes to the Mayors office (市长办公室). He visits offices, businesses, and other schools. Soon he has a very big group of people who like his idea! They all decide to meet at the river the following week. On the day of the river clean-up. Rhenan is excited — but he is also nervous. What if no one shows up? But when he and his mother arrive, there are almost a hundred people there, including many of Rhenan’s friends. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Over the whole day, they all work together to clean up the trash. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the end of the day, everyone starts to cheer. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 蓝光中学2024-2025年度第一学期期中考试 英语试题 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，选出最佳选项。 1.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了11岁的小男孩Isaac Winfield用自己的生日钱建立了一个食物银行，帮助有需要的人，并因此获得了当地的商业奖提名。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“We’d always donated to the local food banks, and during the pandemic, he helped deliver food packages to the needy(我们一直向当地的食品银行捐款，在疫情期间，他帮助向有需要的人运送食品包裹)”以及“recently Isaac had moved to a specialist school that didn’t have a similar program, leaving him(最近艾萨克搬到了一所没有类似项目的特殊学校，这让他……)”和后文“he couldn’t continue to help people(他不能继续帮助别人)”可知，Isaac后来就读的学校没有类似食物银行的项目，他不能继续帮助别人了，这让他感到很沮丧。故划线词upset意思是“难过，沮丧”。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Those in need are also able to go to Isaac’s food bank shed, which is open round the clock, and help themselves.(那些有需要的人也可以去24小时开放的艾萨克的食物银行小屋，帮助他们自己)”可知，Isaac开设的食物银行24小时营业。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““Someone spotted it and put it on one of those Facebook community sites and it went mad. The greenhouse lasted four weeks before I had to go and get a shed because we ran out of room.” Now Isaac is planning to open his second food bank in the town and has a local charity sponsoring (赞助) him.(“有人发现了它，并把它放在了Facebook的一个社区网站上，然后就一发不可收拾了。温室撑了四个星期，然后我不得不去搬棚子，因为我们没有地方了。”现在，艾萨克正计划在镇上开设他的第二家食品银行，并得到了当地一家慈善机构的赞助)”可知，仅过了四周，Isac开设的食物银行的场地便不够用了，由此可推断，当地人对Isaac的食物银行表现出了极大的兴趣。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Isaac was born with a rare chromosome disease (罕见的染色体疾病), and the food bank has helped “massively” with his confidence, as he can’t read or write.(艾萨克出生时患有一种罕见的染色体疾病，由于他不会读写，食物银行“极大地”帮助了他的信心)”可知，筹办食物银行帮助别人让患有罕见染色体疾病的Isaac信心增强。故选B。 C In 1879 Mark Twain wrote an idea he had for a story in his notebook: “A poor man was loaned a £1,000,000 note for 30 days and he got rich on it because nobody could change it.” In the following years, he thought of the idea occasionally, putting down the title as a reminder or outlining a related idea, but nothing came of it. A decade later, financial problems at Charles L. Webster & Co., the publishing firm (公司) founded and owned by Twain, had become serious. The company’s balance sheet was destroyed by ongoing investments (投资) in a hopeless typesetting machine and by disappointing sales. To keep the company afloat, he had to continue investing his own money in it. Things didn’t get better. In the summer of 1891, worried by the dwindling income and rising debts (减少的收入和增加的债务), Mark Twain and his family left their large house, sold the horses, laid off their servants, and took off for Europe so that the internationally celebrated author could cash in on his name abroad. In addition to writing travel articles for McClure’s Magazine and the New York newspaper The Sun, Twain earned money by giving readings in various European cities. Eventually, he earned enough to pay back all the debts. While having an expensive lifestyle in Europe, dining with important persons, and enjoying the widespread attention of the media, Samuel Clemens, the man behind the personality known as Mark Twain, was very poor; the future that awaited him included the closure of his publishing firm and personal bankruptcy (破产). As a virtually penniless man everyone assumed was rich, he doubtlessly realized the absurdity (荒唐) of his situation and the time must have seemed right to take that idea of a million-pound note and turn it into a story about the nature of wealth. He finished the story while in Florence during the fall of 1892 and sent it off to the editors of Century Magazine. 8. What was Mark Twain’s idea for a story in 1879? A. A man develops a company from nothing. B. A poor man becomes rich by working hard. C. A man with a million pound loan becomes rich. D. A wealthy man loses everything and becomes homeless. 9. What happened to Mark Twain’s publishing firm according to paragraph 2? A. It opened several overseas branches. B. It got into financial difficulties. C. It faced plenty of competition. D. It published many bestsellers. 10. Why did Mark Twain travel to Europe? A. To experience a different lifestyle. B. To escape from paying his debts. C. To sell his new books. D. To make money. 11. What inspired Mark Twain to complete the story occurring to him in 1879? A. His desire for wealth. B. The media attention he got. C. The situation he found himself in. D. His meetings with important persons. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了马克·吐温创作《百万英镑》这个故事的背景和灵感来源。从1879年马克·吐温最初有了故事创意开始，接着叙述了十年后他的出版公司出现财务危机，随后他和家人前往欧洲赚钱偿债的经历，最后讲到他在欧洲的复杂处境促使他完成《百万英镑》这个故事并投稿。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In 1879 Mark Twain wrote an idea he had for a story in his notebook: ‘A poor man was loaned a £1,000,000 note for 30 days and he got rich on it because nobody could change it.’ (1879年，马克·吐温在他的笔记本上写下了一个故事的想法：“一个穷人被借了一张100万英镑的钞票，为期30天，他因此变得富有，因为没有人能够兑换它。”)”可知，马克·吐温故事的想法是一个穷人被借了一张一百万英镑的钞票，然后靠这张钞票变得富有。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A decade later, financial problems at Charles L. Webster & Co., the publishing firm(公司) founded and owned by Twain, had become serious. (十年后，由吐温创立并拥有的出版公司Charles L. Webster & Co.遇到了严重的财务问题。)”可知，马克·吐温拥有的出版公司出现了严重的财务问题，其资产负债表被对一台没希望的排字机的持续投资和令人失望的销售情况所破坏，所以公司陷入了财务困境。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“In the summer of 1891, worried by the dwindling income and rising debts, Mark Twain and his family left their large house, sold the horses, laid off their servants, and took off for Europe so that the internationally celebrated author could cash in on his name abroad.(1891年夏天，由于收入减少和债务增加，马克·吐温和他的家人离开了他们的大房子，卖掉了马匹，解雇了仆人，前往欧洲，以便这位国际知名的作家能在国外利用自己的名声赚钱。)”可知，马克·吐温前往欧洲是为了赚钱。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“As a virtually penniless man everyone assumed was rich, he doubtlessly realized the absurdity of his situation and the time must have seemed right to take that idea of a million-pound note and turn it into a story about the nature of wealth.(作为一个实际上身无分文却被大家认为很富有的人，他无疑意识到了自己处境的荒谬，而且似乎正是时候把那张百万英镑钞票的想法发展成一个关于财富本质的故事。)”可知，马克·吐温完成1879年产生的故事想法的灵感来源于他所处的困境。他意识到自己的处境荒谬，因此决定将这个想法发展成小说。故选C项。 D Child-focused financial tech services — apps and banks designed to educate and teach children about finance — are on a mission to educate the masses from a very young age. And they’re growing fast. GoHenry has got a customer base of over 2 million in the UK and the US. Now, the firm is hoping to conquer continental Europe (欧洲大陆) with its acquisition (收购) of Pixpay, a leader in teen banking in France and Spain with nearly 200,000 members. “We’re hugely excited to help further our mission to make every kid and teen smarter with money.” Louise Hill, cofounder of GoHenry said. Launched in 2012, GoHenry is a financial education app and offers prepaid debit card (借记卡) targeted at 6-18 year-olds, featuring “gamified money lessons” with parental oversight (照管). Pixpay, meanwhile, offers a replacement for banks for children young as 10. It offers them a Mastercard payment card and a mobile app, enabling them to pay, get paid, save money or even get discounts on their favourite things. One of the many reasons for the success of the child-centred financial tech industry is its ability to keep up with the changing times. Children today are given easier access than ever to buying goods. Hill said one of the key inspirations behind founding GoHenry was finding herself “trying to explain to my children at home that by clicking the download button on iTunes they were spending money”. “They just didn’t understand it, and the move to cashless payment and the popularity of online shopping has just made the problem worse.” If left unaddressed, poor financial literacy (能力) caused by limited education can lead to money issues in the future. GoHenry and similar financial education services are, to some extent, filling the gap left by the lack of financial literacy caused by the British education system offering parents the tools to educate their children about the value of money. 12. What does GoHenry hope to do after buying Pixpay? A. Launch a financial education app for teenagers in the UK. B. Offer more gamified money lessons to kids in the US. C. Get to know about teen banking in France and Spain. D. Have more young customers in Europe. 13. What can kids as young as 10 do with Pixpay? A. Design their own mobile apps. B. Buy some things at a lower price. C. Draw money from different banks. D. Play games without their parents’ permission. 14. What made Hill start GoHenry? A. A family talk. B. A trip with her children. C. An attempt to use iTunes. D. An online shopping experience. 15. What message is mainly shown in the last paragraph? A. Parents have to be educated properly. B. Money issues are worsening day by day. C. The British education system is a total failure. D. Financial knowledge needs to be readily accessible. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了GoHenry和Pixpay两个应用程序的功能，以及它们的优点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“ Now, the firm is hoping to conquer continental Europe (欧洲大陆) with its acquisition (收购) of Pixpay, a leader in teen banking in France and Spain with nearly 200,000 members.(现在，该公司希望通过收购Pixpay后征服欧洲大陆，Pixpay是法国和西班牙青少年银行业的领导者，拥有近20万名会员)”可知，GoHenry希望通过收购Pixpay在欧洲大陆扩展其业务，吸引更多年轻客户。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Pixpay, meanwhile, offers a replacement for banks for children young as 10. It offers them a Mastercard payment card and a mobile app, enabling them to pay, get paid, save money or even get discounts on their favourite things.(与此同时，Pixpay为10岁的儿童提供了银行的替代品。它为他们提供了一张万事达卡支付卡和一个移动应用程序，使他们能够支付、获得付款、省钱，甚至在他们最喜欢的东西上获得折扣)”可知，Pixpay允许孩子们在他们喜欢的东西上获得折扣，即以较低的价格购买一些东西。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Hill said one of the key inspirations behind founding GoHenry was finding herself “trying to explain to my children at home that by clicking the download button on iTunes they were spending money”.(希尔说，创立GoHenry的主要灵感之一是发现自己“试图在家里向孩子们解释，通过点击iTunes上的下载按钮，他们是在花钱”)可知，是一次家庭谈话启发Hill创办了GoHenry。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“GoHenry and similar financial education services are, to some extent, filling the gap left by the lack of financial literacy caused by the British education system offering parents the tools to educate their children about the value of money.( GoHenry和类似的金融教育服务在一定程度上填补了英国教育体系为父母提供教育孩子金钱价值的工具而导致的金融知识缺乏所留下的空白)”可知，最后一段主要强调了金融知识需要更容易获得，以弥补教育系统在金融素养方面的不足。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。 As parents, we want our kids to be carefree for as long as possible. ____16____ Think again. Experts agree that by the time kids are tackling (应付) basic math at school, they’re ready to learn more about money. Teaching them the benefits of saving money from an early age helps set them up for a lifetime of financial security (安全). The earlier kids start, the sooner they can make saving a habit. Spending is easy, but learning how not to spend money is hard. The earlier kids learn how to save money, the more it will become a part of their value system and a habit. ____17____ Saving money helps kids become self-reliant (自立的) and independent. It may be easier for kids to ask for some money, but do you know what feels better? Not needing to ask for permission. ____18____ That’s a powerful feeling. ____19____ Discipline (自制力) and self-control can be difficult for anyone, especially when it comes to money. The fact is, we won’t always be able to afford the things we want right away — at least not without going into debt. But kids who learn self-control are less likely to have credit problems later in life. Kids can practise having an emergency fund. ____20____ If kids are able to dip into (动用) their own emergency fund when life goes sideways, it can build the confidence needed to weather life’s surprises. A. Why is saving money early important? B Kids need to keep track of their own funds. C. Kids aren’t ready to learn about saving money, right? D.

D 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了孩子们为什么要从小开始存钱以及存钱的好处。 【16题详解】 根据下文“Think again. Experts agree that by the time kids are tackling (应付) basic math at school, they’re ready to learn more about money.(再想想。专家们一致认为，当孩子们在学校学习基础数学时，他们已经准备好更多地了解金钱了。)”可知，下文提到解释孩子们在学校学习数学时，已经准备好更多地了解金钱了。由此可知，空格处内容应为问题句，和下文内容相关。结合选项C项“Kids aren’t ready to learn about saving money, right?(孩子们还没准备好学习存钱，对吗？)”符合此推断，为抛出问题，下文对该问题进行解释，上下文紧密连接。故选C项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“The earlier kids start, the sooner they can make saving a habit.(孩子们越早开始，就越早养成存钱的习惯。)”和“The earlier kids learn how to save money, the more it will become a part of their value system and a habit.(孩子们越早学会如何省钱，它就越会成为他们价值体系和习惯的一部分。)”提到孩子们越早学会如何省钱的好处。结合选项G项“Experts say kids tend to develop their financial habits between the ages of six and 12.(专家说，孩子们倾向于在6岁到12岁之间养成理财习惯。)”可知，承接上文内容，为对上文内容的语意递进，上下文紧密连接。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Saving money helps kids become self-reliant (自立的) and independent. It may be easier for kids to ask for some money, but do you know what feels better? Not needing to ask for permission.(省钱有助于孩子们变得自立和独立。对孩子来说，要钱可能更容易，但你知道什么感觉更好吗？不需要请求许可。)”可知，讲的是孩子们通过省钱而不是通过要钱让他们感觉更好，再结合下文“That’s a powerful feeling.(这是一种强大的感觉。)”，可知选项F项“By saving money, kids will realise that they can get what they want by themselves.(通过省钱，孩子们会意识到他们可以自己得到他们想要的东西。)”可知，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯，符合语境。故选F项。 【19题详解】 由该题位于段落句首可知，为总结该段内容。该段下文“Discipline (自制力) and self-control can be difficult for anyone, especially when it comes to money. The fact is, we won’t always be able to afford the things we want right away — at least not without going into debt. But kids who learn self-control are less likely to have credit problems later in life.(自律和自我控制对任何人来说都是很困难的，尤其是涉及到钱的时候。事实是，我们并不总是能够立刻负担得起我们想要的东西——至少在不负债的情况下是这样。但是，学会自我控制的孩子在以后的生活中不太可能出现信用问题。)”可知，主要讲的是学会自我控制的孩子在以后的生活中不太可能出现信用问题。结合选项D项“Kids knowing how to save money are more likely to stay out of debt.(知道如何省钱的孩子更有可能远离债务。)”可知，和该段主旨意思一致，为总结该段内容。故选D项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Kids can practise having an emergency fund.(孩子们可以练习拥有应急基金。)”以及下文“If kids are able to dip into (动用) their own emergency fund when life goes sideways, it can build the confidence needed to weather life’s surprises.(如果孩子们能够在生活中遇到困难时动用自己的应急基金，就能建立应对生活中意外事件所需的信心。)”可知，该段主要讲的是拥有应急基金的好处。结合选项E项“Good attitudes toward money mean having a little set-aside for the unexpected.(对金钱有好的态度意味着要为意外之事留一点积蓄。)”可知，和该段主旨意思一致，都是讲的应急基金的相关内容，上下文语意连贯，符合语境。故选E项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A driver was praised for returning a lost wallet containing about $500 in cash, as well as several bank cards.

This means that “how to say it” is more important than “what to say”. Body language is an indicator of a person’s attitude, enthusiasm, emotion, and personality. It helps us to interpret the whole message of what someone is trying to deliver and to enhance our understanding of people’s reactions to what we say and do. Only by recognizing the importance of body language can it be better used in our communication. Thanks! 【解析】 【导语】本文书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以“肢体语言在沟通中的重要性”为题，写一篇英文发言稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 重要性：importance→ significance 影响：influence→ effect 热情：enthusiasm→ passion 提高：enhance→ improve 2.句式拓展 同义句替换 原句：Studies have shown that in the process of communication, nonverbal expression has more influence than actual words. 同义句：It has been shown by studies that nonverbal expression holds more sway than actual words during the process of communication. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Studies have shown that in the process of communication, nonverbal expression has more influence than actual words.

It is home to thousands of animals, like bright blue and yellow macaws. River dolphins swim and play in the water, and there are many different coloured fish. In one town, a 13-year-old boy named Rhenan walks along the river every day. But looking at the river makes him worry because there is trash (垃圾) everywhere. He sees plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages. The water looks dark and ugly. At school, Rhenan asks about the dirty river. “You wouldn’t want trash in your house,” says his teacher. “Think about the poor animals!” For days, Rhenan couldn’t stop thinking about the river. It doesn’t seem right to him that this big and powerful river is filled with trash. “It’s hurting the animals in my area,” he thinks. “And it’s also hurting the families who live here.” Then Rhenan has an idea. The next morning, Rhenan talks to his mother about his plan for the river. He wants to go around his town and ask for everyone’s help. Maybe if they all work together, they could clean up the river! Rhenan’s mother loves his idea. “I believe the most important thing for you, Rhenan, is learning how to change things that you care about. That will stay with you forever.” she says. She tells him she will help him along the way. The next day, Rhenan goes to the police department. Next he goes to the Mayors office (市长办公室). He visits offices, businesses, and other schools. Soon he has a very big group of people who like his idea! They all decide to meet at the river the following week. On the day of the river clean-up. Rhenan is excited — but he is also nervous. What if no one shows up? But when he and his mother arrive, there are almost a hundred people there, including many of Rhenan’s friends. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Over the whole day, they all work together to clean up the trash. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the end of the day, everyone starts to cheer. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Over the whole day, they all work together to clean up the trash. Rhenan and the volunteers tirelessly pick up plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages from the river and its banks. They form teams to cover different sections, ensuring no area is left untouched. As they work, laughter and chatter fill the air, creating a sense of community and shared purpose. By the afternoon, they have collected heaps of trash, transforming the riverbank into a cleaner, more beautiful place. At the end of the day, everyone starts to cheer. They are proud of their hard work and the visible change they have made. The river now flows clearer, reflecting the bright sky above. Rhenan feels a deep sense of accomplishment and gratitude towards everyone who has helped. To prevent future pollution, they discuss plans to educate the community about the importance of keeping the river clean and propose regular clean-up events. Rhenan realizes that together, they can make a lasting impact. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，巴西的阿拉瓜亚河是许多动物的家园。但是13岁的Rhenan很担忧，因为河里到处都是塑料瓶、旧衣服和空食品包装袋之类的垃圾。在学校，考虑到垃圾对动物和当地家庭的危害，Rhenan有了清理河流的想法。他把这个想法告诉了母亲，母亲很喜欢这个想法并支持他。随后，Rhenan走访了警察局、市长办公室、各类办公室、企业和其他学校。一大群人支持他的想法。到了清理河流的时候，Rhenan很担心没人来。但包括他许多朋友在内的近百人前来帮忙。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一整天，他们都一起清理垃圾。”可知，第一段可描写Rhenan和志愿者从河边捡起塑料瓶，旧衣服和空包装，他们组成团队，确保没有遗漏，空气中弥漫着笑声，到下午他们已经收集了很多垃圾，河岸变成了干净美丽的地方。 ②由第二段首句内容“在一天结束时，每个人都开始欢呼。”可知，第二段可描写他们为自己的努力感到自豪，河水清澈了，Rhenan对每个帮助的人充满感激，为了防止以后的污染，他们制定了计划，定期举办清理活动，Rhenan意识到他们可以一起产生持久的影响。 2.续写线索：清理垃圾——组成团队——清理干净——感到自豪——河流清澈——讨论计划 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①捡：pick up /collect /gather /retrieve ②覆盖：cover /span / extend over ③讨论：discuss /talk over 情绪类 ①自豪的：be proud of/take pride in ②感激的：gratitude/thankfulness/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] They form teams to cover different sections, ensuring no area is left untouched.
