However, another voice popped up, urging him to give it back to Fahad, which made him feel torn. "I should never keep the wallet at the cost of my honesty, and Fahad would be extremely embarrassed without any money in the presence of so many classmates!"Asad convinced himself. Once he made up his mind, he accelerated his pace and caught him up. "Fahad, it's your wallet and I found it on the bench." Taking over the wallet, Fahad stared into Asad's eyes with a puzzled look written on his face. Then Fahad said, "Why are you giving it back?" He even looked into his wallet, obviously doubtful about Asads act. Calmly and patiently Asad explained, "I had originally wanted to keep it secret as a punishment for your arrogance, but being honest matters more to me." Hearing what Asad had said, Fahad felt his face burning with shame. He bent, thanking Asad for saving him from the embarrassing situation and apologizing to the classmates around for calling them losers. "And the lunch is on me. You all are my friends!"Fahad announced. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Asad是一个13岁的男孩，他非常诚实和勤奋，这天他忘了带钱，本想找班上最富有的孩子Fahad借钱，但是被拒绝了，Fahad还嘲笑了Asad一顿。结果Asad在长凳旁见到了Fahad的钱包。他本来不想归还，但是出于天性还是归还了钱包，两人也因此成为了朋友。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容"起初，Asad想保守秘密，并惩罚了Fahad"可知，第一段可描写Asad不归还钱包，内心的挣扎以及他还钱包的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容"然后Fahad说：'你为什么要把它还给我？'"可知，第二段可描写Asad解释自己还钱包的原因以及Fahad羞愧。 2.续写线索：Asad想惩罚Fahad——Asad内心不安——Asad归还钱包——Fahad困惑——Asad解释——成为朋友 3.词汇激活 行为类 下定决心：make up one's mind/be determined to 赶上：catch sb. up/ catch up with 催促：urge/ hasten 情绪类 尴尬：embarrassed / awkward 困惑：puzzled /confused 【点睛】[高分句型1] However, another voice popped up, urging him to give it back to Fahad, which made him feel torn.

W: Oh, I don’t really like eating outside. There are too many insects! (1) But we could go for lunch at the café in the park. It’s a little more expensive, but at least we can eat in peace. Text 2 W: I don’t know what to get for Mom for Mother’s Day. I was planning to buy the new book she likes, but she has got it for her birthday. M: I don’t know either. Maybe we should phone Aunt Jane and see if she has any ideas. (2) Text 3 W: Hi Michael. I’m at the airport now. Can you tell me how to get to your place? M: Sure. Just follow the signs to the subway station, (3) and take the train to the city mall. I’ll meet you there when you get off the train. Text 4 W: Take the dinner plates into the kitchen and wash them, please. (4) M: But that’s Jennie’s job! I’ve already taken out the rubbish. W: Your sister needs to focus on her studies right now. She’ll do her share once those important exams are over. Text 5 M: I’ve often thought about getting a dog to keep me company. I get quite lonely, living on my own. W: Absolutely! Mine certainly gets me moving. She needs two long walks a day, or she becomes quite unhappy. (5) Text 6 (第6题为推断题) M: Hi, Alice! (7) What are we doing today? Your usual cut? W: Actually, I’d like to do something a bit different with my hair this time. M: Okay! What are you thinking about? W: I’ve imagined something more like this photograph. M: Wow… That’s really short! W: I know. But I’ve had long hair all my life till now. It’s time for a change. M: Very brave! I like seeing this confidence in you. W: Well, I’m about to start college. I don’t want to be “shy little Alice” anymore. (7) M: I think that would look great on you. Let’s do it! Text 7 W: Jason! What are you doing here? M: Signing up for a course. (10) You? W: I work here! Teaching history, of course. (8) I’ve started since I graduated. M: Wow, congratulations! Sorry, I didn’t know! W: Don’t worry. It’s been ages since we saw each other! I think the last time was at Claire’s Christmas party. (9) M: No, Gary and Nicola’s wedding. Remember? (9) W: Oh, that’s right! (9) M: Have you heard they’re having a baby now? W: Yes! Isn’t it great? They’ll be brilliant parents. So, what are you going to study? M: Sports science. I hope the course can help me get ready for my own business as a fitness coach. (10) W: That’s amazing! M: I’ve always loved sports. But I was awful at science at school, so I’m a bit nervous! W: Oh, you’ll be fine! Text 8 (第11题为推断题) W: My dad is making hotpot for dinner tonight. Would you like to come? M: Yes, please! W: Great! Have you tried hotpot before? M: I’ve tried “Lancashire hotpot”! (13) It’s a popular dish where I’m from, in the northwest of England. (12) But I doubt whether it’s the same thing you have here in China! W: What’s it like? M: It’s a thick lamb and onion soup, with potatoes on top. It’s nice and very warming, particularly on cold days like today! (13) W: Well, Chinese hotpot is based on soup, too. But the soup is kept cooking during the meal, and you can cook meat, seafood and vegetables in it. M: So, the food is cooked on the table? That reminds me a little bit of a dish I tried in Switzerland. W: Yes. The soup takes on many different flavors, so it can be really delicious! I love to have a bowl of soup before we cook food in the hotpot. M: Sounds great! Text 9 W: You don’t look very happy. (14) What’s up? M: Oh, I’m okay. I’m working on a pretty difficult piece of work for literature class, and I’m getting cross with myself. (14) W: What do you have to do? M: My teacher wants us to write a short, ten-minute play. W: Well, that sounds fun! M: Yeah, it should be. The thing is — I want to rewrite a short story I wrote last year. But I’m finding it surprisingly difficult. W: Really? M: Yeah. The two forms of writing are just so different. While I’m pretty good at description, I’m not so great at writing dialogue, (15) which is a problem! Because of course, a play tells its story through conversations and action. W: Right, of course. M: I just don’t know how to make the conversations “real”. W: Well, perhaps I can help. I took a film-writing class last year, and I learned a thing or two about writing good dialogue. M: Really? W: Yeah. Why don’t you send me what you’ve written so far? I’ll read it tonight, and then tell you what I think. (16) M: That would be great. I’ll email it to you right now. (16) Thanks! Text 10 It is a well-known and rather amusing fact that all swans(天鹅) in the U.K. officially belong to the King or Queen. This tradition goes back to the Middle Ages, when swan meat was commonly found on the tables of the wealthy. (17) Owning swans was seen as a great honor, something only for the ruler and their rich friends. Nowadays, swans are no longer eaten. In fact, this practice was officially banned in 1981, but the swans still remain a protected species. To make sure these beautiful birds are kept safe and well, the government officially counts the swans on the Thames River during the third week of July each year. (18) The count is carried out by an official called The King’s Swan Marker and his team, who are known as “Swan Uppers”. Easily identified by their bright red shirts, the Uppers travel on the river in six small boats, (20) doing research about the local swan community. They spend five full days catching young swans to weigh them, measure them and give them a health check. (19)(20) Today’s event is focused on education and swan protection, and the annual “Swan Upping” attracts both tourists and local schoolchildren who come to observe this ancient tradition. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$莆田一中 2024～2025 学年度上学期第一学段考试试卷 高二 英语选择性必修一 命题人：胥均 魏丽燕 审核人：林丽华 满分：150分 考试时间：120分钟 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.

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, 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 21. Whose books have been picked in the Oprah’s Book Club Selection twice? A. Melissa Broder’s. B. Henry Guzmán’s. C. Ayana Mathis’s. D. Charley Burlock’s. 22. Which literary style is Death Valley? A. Magic realism. B. Classicism. C. Modernism. D. Expressionism. 23. 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 Standing on the shore of a lake, I can’t help but marvel at the tens or hundreds of thousands of small rocks that surround my boots. They were all created from hard surfaces, their edges softening over time. And I wonder, can we learn from a pile of rocks？ Even the tallest mountains have worn down; none are as tall as they were 1,000 years ago. And much like a rock. I’ve found my attitude has softened and my desire to better understand others has expanded with each trip around the sun. Once I too was a sharp rock covered in pointy edges. Today, after decades of the waters of life coursing over me, my edges are softer and more understanding. I’m less likely to judge and more interested in learning how we can exist together. But I’m not a rock. I’m a human-being filled with all the drama built into my DNA. Two years ago, while traveling in the Pacific Northwest, I watched a restaurant owner ask a guy to leave for not falling in line with the rules. Not forceful and not rude. On the door read a sign. “Please wear a mask before entering our restaurant. We don’t like it either, but let’s all do what we can.” But the guy tried to argue about the note. I sat watching, understanding both sides. I’ve been this guy before, using my youthful edges to chip away at the world. What I lost, however, was the ability to grow from experiences by looking through the eyes of eyes. In learning to be more open, I’ve also found more happiness and success. You can fit more rounded rocks in a jar than those with sharp edges. The former look for ways to adjust and make room for others; the latter never give an inch to accommodate others. Time, like the waters rolling against once sharp stones, changes us by washing away our resistance to seeing the world from another’s point of view. I placed a rounded stone into my pocket. Mother Nature is holding class again. 24. What does the author compare the rocks to? A. People with varied personalities. B. DNA unique to each person. C. Challenges that we come across. D. Our abilities that grows with time. 25. What caused the argument in the restaurant? A. Lack of clarity in the sign. B. The owner’s inappropriate attitude. C. Demanding restaurant request. D. The guy’s failing to obey the rules. 26. Which best describes the author’s attitude toward the world when he was young? A. Respectful. B. Aggressive. C. Optimistic. D. Tolerant. 27. What does the author try to convey through this text? A. We should stick to our principles in conflicts. B. Be brave when in the face of difficulties in life. C. It’s necessary to obey the rules in public spaces. D. Being open and understanding brings satisfaction. C Engaging your brain actively at work can benefit you in more ways than just advancing your career — it may also safeguard your cognitive (认知的) abilities and help prevent dementia (痴呆症) as you get older, a new study found. The study, published in Neurology, analyzed health and occupational data on 7,000 Norwegians who were followed from their 30s until they retired in their 60s. “Many other studies on this topic have looked at the most recent jobs that people have,” said lead author Dr. Trine Edwin, a researcher at University of Oslo, “but due to the national database we have in Norway, we were able to follow people over much of their lifetimes.” To do the analysis, Edwin categorized the cognitive demands of 305 occupations in Norway. More cognitively demanding jobs were not based on routine tasks, even though repetition was required at times. “There were lawyers, doctors, accountants, and people in public service in this group, but the most common occupation was teaching,” Edwin said, “as effective communication outside of the classroom and school matters. It always depends on teachers’ understandings of students’ different situations and teachers’ empathy.” Having a routine job with little mental stimulation during your 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s is linked to a 66% higher risk of mild cognitive impairment (损伤) and a 37% greater risk of dementia after the age of 70, when compared with having an occupation that requires more complex thinking. “The occupational environment is paramount in promoting cognitive well-being,” said Edwin. “Similarly, just like we can use physical exercise to grow and maintain our muscles, exercising our brain through more challenging work assignments seems to help fight dementia.” “While I’d guess that people at risk for dementia would be well served by taking advantage of professional advancement opportunities, learning new job tasks, and refining (改进) their skills at work over a period of time, further studies will need to clarify which specific activities have the most brain healthy benefits,” Edwin added. 28. Why is Edwin’s research remarkable? A. Because it focused on emerging industries. B. Because it tracked a long-term occupation impact. C. Because it only studied Norwegians of a certain age. D. Because it drew much inspiration from past studies. 29. What makes teaching a cognitively demanding job? A. The complete lack of repetitive tasks. B. The number of students and parents. C. The harmonious relationship it creates. D. The emotional labor it involves. 30. What does “paramount” underlined in paragraph 4 mean? A. Vital. B. Urgent. C. Realistic. D. Sufficient. 31.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Activities that can refine people’s skills at work. B. A recommendation for future research directions. C. Tips for people who want professional advancement. D. Disadvantages of routine jobs that need further proof. D Many cities around the world get more rain than their surroundings. Just like the way you have an urban heat island, you have an urban rainfall effect, says Dev Niyogi at the University of Texas at Austin. Niyogi and his colleagues looked at satellite data on rainfall between 2001 and 2020 in 1056 cities and nearby rural areas across different climate regions. They found that more than 60 percent of cities were “wet islands” while some other cities were “dry islands”. For example, Ho Chi Minh City and Sydney were among the wettest anomalies (反常), each with over 100 millimetres more rainfall than their surroundings per year. Seattle and Rio de Janeiro were among the 10 driest. Cities can boost or reduce rainfall in several ways. Heat absorbed by asphalt (沥青黄沙混合物) and buildings can cause updrafts that help rain clouds to form. The roughness of buildings can slow weather systems so they rain over urban areas for longer. Air pollution can seed clouds, although it can also reduce rainfall by cooling the air. Paved surfaces with little vegetation can reduce evaporation, leading to less damp in the air. The influence of these factors varies based on the size and location of cities. The team found larger, more populous cities were more likely to be wet islands. Cities in temperate, tropical and coastal regions tended to have the largest anomalies, while those in mountainous areas generally saw smaller differences! They also found the average difference between wet islands and their surroundings almost doubled over the study period, from 37 to 62 millimetres more rainfall per year. Dry anomalies didn’t change. Niyogi says this is because of rapid urbanization combined with warming temperatures due to climate change, which increases the amount of water vapour in the air. Current weather and climate models don’t fully account for the influence of cities on rain. But Niyogi says it may eventually be possible for city planners to consider how their decision s affect rainfall. 32. What is “wet island” in the study？ A. Rural areas that flood frequently with rains. B. Climate regions along the tropical and coastal areas. C. Cities flooded because of rains in their surroundings. D. Urban areas that saw more rains than their surroundings. 33. Which of the following is related to rainfall reduction? A. Asphalt and rough buildings. B. Strong updrafts. C. Paved surface with little vegetation. D. Heated air flow. 34. What can be inferred from the research findings? A. Dry anomalies are not easy to change. B. Urban rainfall effects are increasingly serious. C. Mountainous areas do not have rainfall problems. D. Climate change is the main concern in urban rainfall control. 35. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Cities are Becoming Victims of Global Warming B. Development Turns Most Cities into “Wet Islands” C. Country Life Downplays the Harm of Urban Rainfall D. More Rain or Less Rain: It Depends on How Green our Life Is 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。 Home gardens produce delicious food. But that’s not their main virtue. Imagine a plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One came out of a super-market box, probably harvested unripe. 36 The other was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten. The first one will probably taste like a slightly sour grape while the second is likely to be sweet and rich in flavour. Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages. They are convenient and available in the northern globe even in February. But the two berries differ from each other in the same way that hearing Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata in a concert hall differs from listening to it on an old tape. 37 Other people, however, believe gardening a waste of time. But the same could be said of cooking. There are cheap and decent restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals? 38 They mistake the product for the purpose. Actually, a garden, especially in the early years, can produce little but frustration (挫败感). New gardeners may plant the wrong crops for their soil. Rabbits have an annoying habit of taking single bites of vegetable, then leaving the rest to go bad. 39 No matter. The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it. The deepest pleasure — as with cooking, writing, bringing up children or almost anything worthwhile — is in the work itself. A gardener’s memories revolve not around the food produced, but around long afternoons with hands in the dirt. 40 A. No one can ever avoid this hard stage. B. So why don’t we start home gardening for delicious food? C. This might explain why many people desire a home garden. D. These people misunderstand the ultimate appeal of gardening. E. By the time it reached the plate it may have been off the plant for days. F. To garden is to patiently and lovingly help life grow, in the ground and above it. G. And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to uncooperative weather. 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节 完形填空（共 15小题；每小题 1分，满分 15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的 最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When I first built my website 3 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing.

Without advertisements or social media buttons, more people were 45 in my articles. It seemed that the 46 my website became, the better the results were.

Since 56 (it) release on August 20th, over 20 million copies, produced by the Chinese game developer Game Science and based on classic Chinese folklore, have been sold, placing it among the fastest-selling 57 (game) globally of all time. The emergence of this game is not coincidental (巧合). 58 the game designers intended it or not, its global popularity marks a major shift in China’s relationship with the world. China is transitioning from a focus on production 59 entertainment, from connecting with the world through material goods to engaging a global audience with meaningful, intangible (无形的 ) stories. China seems to have finally grasped the recipe for creating content 60 sells globally. By reexamining its own cultural heritage and recognizing its beauty and value, developers in the country’s cultural industry, now 61 (equip) with greater cultural confidence, have realized that their secret toolkit lies within their own traditional culture. Instead of the castles and churches common in Western video games, Wukong 62 (integrate) Chinese temples, towers, and pavilions (亭), all based on centuries-old heritage sites.

Recently, he had entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual. At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing. Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there, among them was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant(傲慢的)boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad. When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch, Fahad laughed a lot and said, “I knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar?” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench. When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it as Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid. At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad._______________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving back?” __________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ 莆田一中 2024～2025 学年度上学期第一学段考试试卷 高二 英语选择性必修一 满分：150分 考试时间：120分钟 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.

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, 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 21.Whose books have been picked in the Oprah’s Book Club Selection twice? A. Melissa Broder’s. B. Henry Guzmán’s. C. Ayana Mathis’s. D. Charley Burlock’s. 22. Which literary style is Death Valley? A. Magic realism. B. Classicism. C. Modernism. D. Expressionism. 23. 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 Standing on the shore of a lake, I can’t help but marvel at the tens or hundreds of thousands of small rocks that surround my boots. They were all created from hard surfaces, their edges softening over time. And I wonder, can we learn from a pile of rocks？ Even the tallest mountains have worn down; none are as tall as they were 1,000 years ago. And much like a rock. I’ve found my attitude has softened and my desire to better understand others has expanded with each trip around the sun. Once I too was a sharp rock covered in pointy edges. Today, after decades of the waters of life coursing over me, my edges are softer and more understanding. I’m less likely to judge and more interested in learning how we can exist together. But I’m not a rock. I’m a human-being filled with all the drama built into my DNA. Two years ago, while traveling in the Pacific Northwest, I watched a restaurant owner ask a guy to leave for not falling in line with the rules. Not forceful and not rude. On the door read a sign. “Please wear a mask before entering our restaurant. We don’t like it either, but let’s all do what we can.” But the guy tried to argue about the note. I sat watching, understanding both sides. I’ve been this guy before, using my youthful edges to chip away at the world. What I lost, however, was the ability to grow from experiences by looking through the eyes of eyes. In learning to be more open, I’ve also found more happiness and success. You can fit more rounded rocks in a jar than those with sharp edges. The former look for ways to adjust and make room for others; the latter never give an inch to accommodate others. Time, like the waters rolling against once sharp stones, changes us by washing away our resistance to seeing the world from another’s point of view. I placed a rounded stone into my pocket. Mother Nature is holding class again. 24. What does the author compare the rocks to? A. People with varied personalities. B. DNA unique to each person. C. Challenges that we come across. D. Our abilities that grows with time. 25. What caused the argument in the restaurant? A. Lack of clarity in the sign. B. The owner’s inappropriate attitude. C. Demanding restaurant request. D. The guy’s failing to obey the rules. 26. Which best describes the author’s attitude toward the world when he was young? A. Respectful. B. Aggressive. C. Optimistic. D. Tolerant. 27. What does the author try to convey through this text? A. We should stick to our principles in conflicts. B. Be brave when in the face of difficulties in life. C. It’s necessary to obey the rules in public spaces. D. Being open and understanding brings satisfaction. C Engaging your brain actively at work can benefit you in more ways than just advancing your career — it may also safeguard your cognitive (认知的) abilities and help prevent dementia (痴呆症) as you get older, a new study found. The study, published in Neurology, analyzed health and occupational data on 7,000 Norwegians who were followed from their 30s until they retired in their 60s. “Many other studies on this topic have looked at the most recent jobs that people have,” said lead author Dr. Trine Edwin, a researcher at University of Oslo, “but due to the national database we have in Norway, we were able to follow people over much of their lifetimes.” To do the analysis, Edwin categorized the cognitive demands of 305 occupations in Norway. More cognitively demanding jobs were not based on routine tasks, even though repetition was required at times. “There were lawyers, doctors, accountants, and people in public service in this group, but the most common occupation was teaching,” Edwin said, “as effective communication outside of the classroom and school matters. It always depends on teachers’ understandings of students’ different situations and teachers’ empathy.” Having a routine job with little mental stimulation during your 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s is linked to a 66% higher risk of mild cognitive impairment (损伤) and a 37% greater risk of dementia after the age of 70, when compared with having an occupation that requires more complex thinking. “The occupational environment is paramount in promoting cognitive well-being,” said Edwin. “Similarly, just like we can use physical exercise to grow and maintain our muscles, exercising our brain through more challenging work assignments seems to help fight dementia.” “While I’d guess that people at risk for dementia would be well served by taking advantage of professional advancement opportunities, learning new job tasks, and refining (改进) their skills at work over a period of time, further studies will need to clarify which specific activities have the most brain healthy benefits,” Edwin added. 28. Why is Edwin’s research remarkable? A. Because it focused on emerging industries. B. Because it tracked a long-term occupation impact. C. Because it only studied Norwegians of a certain age. D. Because it drew much inspiration from past studies. 29. What makes teaching a cognitively demanding job? A. The complete lack of repetitive tasks. B. The number of students and parents. C. The harmonious relationship it creates. D. The emotional labor it involves. 30. What does “paramount” underlined in paragraph 4 mean? A. Vital. B. Urgent. C. Realistic. D. Sufficient. 31.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Activities that can refine people’s skills at work. B. A recommendation for future research directions. C. Tips for people who want professional advancement. D. Disadvantages of routine jobs that need further proof. D Many cities around the world get more rain than their surroundings. Just like the way you have an urban heat island, you have an urban rainfall effect, says Dev Niyogi at the University of Texas at Austin. Niyogi and his colleagues looked at satellite data on rainfall between 2001 and 2020 in 1056 cities and nearby rural areas across different climate regions. They found that more than 60 percent of cities were “wet islands” while some other cities were “dry islands”. For example, Ho Chi Minh City and Sydney were among the wettest anomalies (反常), each with over 100 millimetres more rainfall than their surroundings per year. Seattle and Rio de Janeiro were among the 10 driest. Cities can boost or reduce rainfall in several ways. Heat absorbed by asphalt (沥青黄沙混合物) and buildings can cause updrafts that help rain clouds to form. The roughness of buildings can slow weather systems so they rain over urban areas for longer. Air pollution can seed clouds, although it can also reduce rainfall by cooling the air. Paved surfaces with little vegetation can reduce evaporation, leading to less damp in the air. The influence of these factors varies based on the size and location of cities. The team found larger, more populous cities were more likely to be wet islands. Cities in temperate, tropical and coastal regions tended to have the largest anomalies, while those in mountainous areas generally saw smaller differences! They also found the average difference between wet islands and their surroundings almost doubled over the study period, from 37 to 62 millimetres more rainfall per year. Dry anomalies didn’t change. Niyogi says this is because of rapid urbanization combined with warming temperatures due to climate change, which increases the amount of water vapour in the air. Current weather and climate models don’t fully account for the influence of cities on rain. But Niyogi says it may eventually be possible for city planners to consider how their decision s affect rainfall. 32. What is “wet island” in the study？ A. Rural areas that flood frequently with rains. B. Climate regions along the tropical and coastal areas. C. Cities flooded because of rains in their surroundings. D. Urban areas that saw more rains than their surroundings. 33. Which of the following is related to rainfall reduction? A. Asphalt and rough buildings. B. Strong updrafts. C. Paved surface with little vegetation. D. Heated air flow. 34. What can be inferred from the research findings? A. Dry anomalies are not easy to change. B. Urban rainfall effects are increasingly serious. C. Mountainous areas do not have rainfall problems. D. Climate change is the main concern in urban rainfall control. 35. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Cities are Becoming Victims of Global Warming B. Development Turns Most Cities into “Wet Islands” C. Country Life Downplays the Harm of Urban Rainfall D. More Rain or Less Rain: It Depends on How Green our Life Is 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。 Home gardens produce delicious food. But that’s not their main virtue. Imagine a plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One came out of a super-market box, probably harvested unripe. 36 The other was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten. The first one will probably taste like a slightly sour grape while the second is likely to be sweet and rich in flavour. Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages. They are convenient and available in the northern globe even in February. But the two berries differ from each other in the same way that hearing Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata in a concert hall differs from listening to it on an old tape. 37 Other people, however, believe gardening a waste of time. But the same could be said of cooking. There are cheap and decent restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals? 38 They mistake the product for the purpose. Actually, a garden, especially in the early years, can produce little but frustration (挫败感). New gardeners may plant the wrong crops for their soil. Rabbits have an annoying habit of taking single bites of vegetable, then leaving the rest to go bad. 39 No matter. The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it. The deepest pleasure — as with cooking, writing, bringing up children or almost anything worthwhile — is in the work itself. A gardener’s memories revolve not around the food produced, but around long afternoons with hands in the dirt. 40 A. No one can ever avoid this hard stage. B. So why don’t we start home gardening for delicious food? C. This might explain why many people desire a home garden. D. These people misunderstand the ultimate appeal of gardening. E. By the time it reached the plate it may have been off the plant for days. F. To garden is to patiently and lovingly help life grow, in the ground and above it. G. And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to uncooperative weather. 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分30 分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When I first built my website 3 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing.

Without advertisements or social media buttons, more people were 45 in my articles. It seemed that the 46 my website became, the better the results were. Later, I noticed the 47 of simplicity in other areas of life. As a kid, I was too thin. As an athlete, I needed to get stronger. So I spent hours designing the right combination of exercises. But when I 48 got stronger, I assumed that I was missing some kind of exercise. So I kept 49 something new. But it took me years to realize that the key was the exact opposite. I 50 the complex workouts and focused on just one or two exercises. Surprisingly, there was a noticeable 51 in my strength in just four months.

Since 56 (it) release on August 20th, over 20 million copies, produced by the Chinese game developer Game Science and based on classic Chinese folklore, have been sold, placing it among the fastest-selling 57 (game) globally of all time. The emergence of this game is not coincidental (巧合). 58 the game designers intended it or not, its global popularity marks a major shift in China’s relationship with the world. China is transitioning from a focus on production 59 entertainment, from connecting with the world through material goods to engaging a global audience with meaningful, intangible (无形的) stories. China seems to have finally grasped the recipe for creating content 60 sells globally. By reexamining its own cultural heritage and recognizing its beauty and value, developers in the country’s cultural industry, now 61 (equip) with greater cultural confidence, have realized that their secret toolkit lies within their own traditional culture. Instead of the castles and churches common in Western video games, Wukong 62 (integrate) Chinese temples, towers, and pavilions (亭), all based on centuries-old heritage sites. Numerous scenes take place in beautiful, photorealistic settings, 63 (show) misty mountains, thick forests, Buddhist sculptures, clear waters, and old pines. These landscapes 64 (root) in the Chinese artistic styles of painting and architecture, building atmospheric and vivid scenes of the game. The poetic quality lifts players’ experiences from typical video game battles to cultural 65 (appreciate). 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 假定你是李华，你校英文报刊的 “Tourist Attractions” 栏目正在征文。请你根据以下要点，写一篇以 “My Favorite Park” 为题的短文进行投稿。内容包括： 1. 地理位置； 2. 公园特色； 3. 欢迎游览。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My Favorite Park ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。 Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking.
