Biologist and youngest shortlist in the Royal Society Science Book Prize’s history, Nicklas Brendborg takes us deeper into the topic. Without making claims about ways to stay young forever, Brendborg guides readers through the science of ageing and how you can make it easier on yourself. Nuts and Bolts Award-winning engineer and broadcaster Roma Agrawal breaks down some of the greatest achievements of engineering, from skyscrapers (摩天大楼) to space travel, into seven key inventions. Written in a humorous tone, with personal touches such as a letter to Agrawal’s daughter, this book will have you look at the world around you through a new viewpoint. Taking Flight Lev Parikian brings a well-deserved sense of wonder to the act of flight. His book explores fourteen different flying species, starting 300 million years ago with insects and coming right up to the birds and butterflies of today. An Immense World In this impressive page-turner, Ed Yong takes us past our own senses to help us imagine how the world is perceived (感知) by the animals with which we share this planet. Going beyond sight, sound, smell, taste and touch, Yong invites us to explore vibrations (振动), electric fields and beyond. 1. Who wrote the book Jelly fish Age Backwards? A. Nicklas Brendborg. B. Ed Yong. C. Lev Parikian. D. Roma Agrawal. 2. Which book focuses on a wide range of inventions? A. Taking Flight. B. An Immense World. C. Nuts and Bolts. D. Jellyfish Age Backwards. 3. What do the last two books have in common? A. They have won prizes. B. They are about animals. C. They research on how to fly. D. They are authored by the same person. B Josh Primm has just moved to New York City with his parents. He’s shy, anxious, and slow to adjust to his new school. Then he makes a friend— Lyle, a crocodile. Lyle is no ordinary crocodile. For one thing, he sings. Josh’s parents are terrified of him at first, but Lyle soon becomes part of the family. When Mr. Grumps, their unfriendly neighbor, threatens to have Lyle taken away, the Primms pull together to protect the creature. Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is a musical comedy based on the popular children’s books by Bernard Waber. Josh is played by Winslow Fegley, 13. He said he came to understand the shy boy. “Josh has to go through this journey, to break out of his shell,” Winslow said. “And it’s Lyle, understanding the boy’s loneliness, who helps him do this. By the end of the movie, Josh is very open to trying new things,” Winslow added. “I can relate to that.” The Lyle we see in the movie is computer- animated. He’s voiced by singer Shawn Mendes. But Winslow said it was a “man in a suit”, actor Ben Palacios, who brought adult Lyle to life on the set. This made it easier for Winslow to get into character. “It was a great experience because I could work with a real person,” Winslow said. “I was able to react to his emotions.” Winslow has the same admiration for everyone involved in making the movie. “All of the people who worked on the special effects have done an amazing job,” he said. “It’s not just making Lyle look realistic, but making him a lovable character. It’s really easy to fall in love with him.” The film also stars Constance Wu as Josh’s mom and Javier Bardem as Hector P. Valenti, Lyle’s owner. “With all these very talented people,” Winslow said, “we made an amazing film that’s great, hopefully, for all ages.” Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile opened in theaters on October 7. 4. What did Lyle do in the story? A. He taught Josh to sing. B. He helped Jos h overcome his shyness. C. He invited Josh to a crocodile concert. D. He competed with Jos h in a talent show. 5. What is the movie Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile mainly about? A. Winslow Fegley struggles to become an actor. B. Lyle, a crocodile, becomes a pop star in New York City. C. Josh adapts to a new school with the help of a crocodile. D. The Primm family’s neighbor tries to drive their pet crocodile away. 6. How did Ben’s Lyle affect Winslow? A. It challenged him to act against a pre- recorded voice. B. It simplified the process of working with special effects. C. It allowed him to practice communicating with a crocodile. D. It enabled him to perform better in his role. 7. What does Winslow Fegley admire about the film’s special effects team? A. Their work with actor Ben Palacios. B. Their creation of a lovable character. C. Their ability to make Lyle look harmless. D. Their contribution to the film’s music. C Every Monday through Friday, you may be running between work, appointments and family events— can’t the workout wait until the weekend? Maybe, according to a new report published in the journal JAMA, which found that people who exercised throughout the week and “weekend warriors”, who packed their exercise into the weekend, saw a similar reduction in the risk of heart diseases. The paper relied on data from the UK Biobank, a large biomedical database that follows residents in the long term. “A group of more than 100,000 people used accelerometers (加速度计) to track their movement over the course of a week,” the study said. Researchers then assessed the relationship between exercise patterns and events of the heart. Adults need at least 150 minutes of moderate- intensity (中等强度) physical activity per week, according to The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. “If you are able to achieve those guideline- recommended levels over one to two days of the week, then our findings show you’ re getting a similar benefit as people who exercise every day,” said lead study author Dr Shaan Khurshid, instructor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston. “However, participants only wore the accelerometers for a week, which might not track their most regular activity patterns,” said Dr Andrew Freeman from National Jewish Health in Denver, who was not part of the research. Freeman often recommends his patients aim to exercise every day, encouraging them to engage in 30- minute exercise that’s hard enough to make them breathless. Still, there are patients who tell Freeman that they can only get a day or two of activity during the week but have more time on the weekend. Now the recent study gives him more confidence in helping them make that work. “This is at least inspiring enough for me to say to some patients, ‘Hey, there’s recent data that says if you can’t get your 30 minutes every day, getting 150 minutes over a weekend might be helpful,’” said Freeman. 8. Why did the participants wear accelerometers in the study? A. To remind them of their work. B. To warn them of accidents. C. To track their physical activity. D. To record their emotional changes. 9. How many minutes of moderate- intensity exercise are recommended for adults in a week? A. At least 30 minutes. B. At least 60 minutes. C. At least 90 minutes. D. At least 150 minutes. 10. Why does Freeman consider the study helpful? A. It gives him a way to guide his patients. B. It encourages him to work out at weekends. C. It provides an effective tool for his future study. D. It allows him more time for relaxation. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. A New Tool for Heart Health Research B. The Impact of Daily Exercise on Heart Health C. Physical Activity Prevents Heart Diseases in Adults D. Weekend- only Workouts Also Benefit Your Heart Health D According to Carol Henger, an urban ecologist at Fordham University, around 20-30 coyotes (郊狼) live in New York City, which was first reported by the New York Times. According to the journal, coyotes have been spotted wandering (游荡的) areas of NYC as early as 1994, with proof of breeding groups first established in 2016. NYC wasn’t originally home to coyotes, as most of the species came from the Great Plains and Southwest. Dr. Henger estimates a total of 20 — 30 coyotes are now residing in the city. Many of the coyotes currently living in the city can actually be traced back to the original group that first arrived in the Bronx, so they truly are multi-generational New Yorkers. The curious creatures can cover as much as 10 miles of open space per day — picture the route from Wall Street to the top of Central Park. So where are they living in NYC? Well, according to Urban Coyote Research, urban coyotes like to keep their distance from humans, choosing habitats (栖息地) in parks or wooded patches. Specifically in NYC, Dr. Henger discovered coyote feces (粪便) mainly around green spaces in the Bronx and areas throughout Queens over a 10-year span, shares the New York Times. In recent years, NYC has also seen coyotes wandering in Central Park. As for diet, urban coyotes had a more species-rich diet than the non-urban coyotes. From plants to rabbits, human leftovers to rodents rats, urban coyotes actually have quite a diverse diet. And though only a limited number of rats were traced in urban coyote feces according to Dr. Henger, at least something’s out there dealing with them until the city hires a rat catcher! 12. What does the text suggest about the coyotes’ habitats? A. They are native to NYC. B. They were first discovered in Central Park. C. They often change habitats throughout their lives. D. They originally came from the Great Plains and Southwest. 13. What does the underlined word “residing” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Sleeping. B. Hiding. C. Living. D. Visiting. 14 What can be known about urban coyotes? A. They are unfamiliar with NYC. B. They can wander up to 10 miles in a day. C. They prefer to live in populated urban areas. D. They have a limited diet consisting of only plants. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The varied diet of urban coyotes. B. Safety tips on living with coyotes. C. Coyotes’ daily movements in NYC. D. The arrival and settlement of coyotes. 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。 How to Improve Communication in the Workplace Communicating effectively with coworkers is key to having a positive experience at work Are you trying to improve your communication skills as a manager? ___16___.

Their house, surrounded by a garden full of greenery, was a picture of family happiness. Next to them, in a lonely courtyard, lived an old man, Mr. Thompson, who lived alone. He used to be a teacher, but now he’s retired. Mr. Thompson’s health wasn’t what it used to be. His children, now grown, lived far away in a noisy city, leaving him often alone. The Wilsons-Max, Sarah, and their two children-were his frequent visitors, ensuring he had companionship and assistance. Mr. Thompson, in turn, was a caring neighbor, always willing to watch over the Wilsons’ children and pets. One winter, Mr. Thompson had fell on the ice and hurt his leg. It was Max who had rushed to help him, making sure he was safe and comfortable until the doctor arrived. Since then, they had been even more careful to check on Mr. Thompson regularly. As spring arrived, the Wilsons’ garden bloomed (开花) with colorful flowers and fresh greenery. One sunny afternoon, Max’s youngest son, Daniel, looked up from playing and said, “Dad, I haven’t seen Mr. Thompson looking over the hedge (树篱) for a while. “Max stopped his work and a wave of realization washed over him as he looked at the thickening hedge. Max remembered seeing a sad look in Mr. Thompson’s eyes a few days before. However, he hadn’t paid much attention to it. Now, he understood that the growing hedge had made their kind neighbor feel lonely. He remembered Mr. Thompson’s kind eyes, usually looking over the hedge with a friendly wave. He thought about the times they had shared, the laughter and the knowledge Mr. Thompson had passed on to his children. Now, as he looked at the hedge that had grown wild and untrimmed (未修剪的), he felt a sense of loss. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Determined to reconnect, Max gathered his family. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing the Wilsons, Mr. Thompson’s face lit up with joy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 ABACC 6—10 ACACB 11—15 CBBAA 16—20 CACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024~2025学年度高二上学期期中联考试卷 英语 考生注意： 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4.本卷命题范围：北师大版选择性必修第一册Unit 3～选择性必修第二册Unit5。 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.

He’s shy, anxious, and slow to adjust to his new school. Then he makes a friend— Lyle, a crocodile. Lyle is no ordinary crocodile. For one thing, he sings. Josh’s parents are terrified of him at first, but Lyle soon becomes part of the family. When Mr. Grumps, their unfriendly neighbor, threatens to have Lyle taken away, the Primms pull together to protect the creature. Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is a musical comedy based on the popular children’s books by Bernard Waber. Josh is played by Winslow Fegley, 13. He said he came to understand the shy boy. “Josh has to go through this journey, to break out of his shell,” Winslow said. “And it’s Lyle, understanding the boy’s loneliness, who helps him do this. By the end of the movie, Josh is very open to trying new things,” Winslow added. “I can relate to that.” The Lyle we see in the movie is computer- animated. He’s voiced by singer Shawn Mendes. But Winslow said it was a “man in a suit”, actor Ben Palacios, who brought adult Lyle to life on the set. This made it easier for Winslow to get into character. “It was a great experience because I could work with a real person,” Winslow said. “I was able to react to his emotions.” Winslow has the same admiration for everyone involved in making the movie. “All of the people who worked on the special effects have done an amazing job,” he said. “It’s not just making Lyle look realistic, but making him a lovable character. It’s really easy to fall in love with him.” The film also stars Constance Wu as Josh’s mom and Javier Bardem as Hector P. Valenti, Lyle’s owner. “With all these very talented people,” Winslow said, “we made an amazing film that’s great, hopefully, for all ages.” Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile opened in theaters on October 7. 4. What did Lyle do in the story? A. He taught Josh to sing. B. He helped Jos h overcome his shyness. C. He invited Josh to a crocodile concert. D. He competed with Jos h in a talent show. 5. What is the movie Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile mainly about? A. Winslow Fegley struggles to become an actor. B. Lyle, a crocodile, becomes a pop star in New York City. C. Josh adapts to a new school with the help of a crocodile. D. The Primm family’s neighbor tries to drive their pet crocodile away. 6. How did Ben’s Lyle affect Winslow? A.

It enabled him to perform better in his role. 7. What does Winslow Fegley admire about the film’s special effects team? A. Their work with actor Ben Palacios. B.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一部音乐喜剧电影，并描述了主人公扮演者的表演感受。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“He’s shy, anxious, and slow to adjust to his new school. Then he makes a friend— Lyle, a crocodile.”（他害羞、焦虑，适应新学校的速度很慢。然后他交了一个朋友——莱尔，一只鳄鱼。）及第三段“Josh has to go through this journey, to break out of his shell,” Winslow said. “And it’s Lyle, understanding the boy’s loneliness, who helps him do this.”（“乔希必须经历这段旅程，打破他的壳，”温斯洛说。而正是莱尔，理解男孩的孤独，帮助他做到了这一点。）可知，Lyle理解Josh的孤独，并帮助他打破自己的壳，变得更加开放，愿意尝试新事物。从而可推断，Lyle帮助Josh克服了他的害羞。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据第三段““Josh has to go through this journey, to break out of his shell,” Winslow said. “And it’s Lyle, understanding the boy’s loneliness, who helps him do this. By the end of the movie, Josh is very open to trying new things,” Winslow added. “I can relate to that.””（“Josh必须经历这段旅程，打破他的壳，”温斯洛说。而正是莱尔，理解男孩的孤独，帮助他做到了这一点。在电影的最后，Josh非常愿意尝试新事物，”Winslow补充道。“我能理解。”）可知，电影的主要内容是关于Josh如何通过一只名叫Lyle的鳄鱼的帮助来适应他的新学校，因此选项C正确概括了电影的主要内容。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The Lyle we see in the movie is computer- animated. He’s voiced by singer Shawn Mendes. But Winslow said it was a “man in a suit”, actor Ben Palacios, who brought adult Lyle to life on the set. This made it easier for Winslow to get into character. “It was a great experience because I could work with a real person,” Winslow said. “I was able to react to his emotions.””（我们在电影中看到的莱尔是电脑动画制作的。他的配音是歌手肖恩·门德斯。但温斯洛说，这是一个“穿着（鳄鱼）服装的仁”，演员本·帕拉西奥斯，他在片场把成年后的莱尔演绎得活脱脱。这让温斯洛更容易进入角色。“这是一次很棒的经历，因为我可以和一个真实的人一起工作，”温斯洛说。“我能够对他的情绪做出反应。”）可知，Winslow Fegley 描述与穿着鳄鱼服装的演员Ben Palacios互动使得他能够在现场与一个真人合作，并对其情绪做出反应，这样的互动帮助他更好地进入角色并提升表演。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“All of the people who worked on the special effects have done an amazing job,” he said. “It’s not just making Lyle look realistic, but making him a lovable character. It’s really easy to fall in love with him.”（所有从事特效工作的人都做得非常出色。”“这不仅让莱尔看起来很真实，而且让他成为一个可爱的角色。真的很容易就会爱上他。）可推断，Winslow欣赏特效团队创造了一个让观众容易爱上的角色。故选B。 C Every Monday through Friday, you may be running between work, appointments and family events— can’t the workout wait until the weekend? Maybe, according to a new report published in the journal JAMA, which found that people who exercised throughout the week and “weekend warriors”, who packed their exercise into the weekend, saw a similar reduction in the risk of heart diseases. The paper relied on data from the UK Biobank, a large biomedical database that follows residents in the long term. “A group of more than 100,000 people used accelerometers (加速度计) to track their movement over the course of a week,” the study said. Researchers then assessed the relationship between exercise patterns and events of the heart. Adults need at least 150 minutes of moderate- intensity (中等强度) physical activity per week, according to The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. “If you are able to achieve those guideline- recommended levels over one to two days of the week, then our findings show you’ re getting a similar benefit as people who exercise every day,” said lead study author Dr Shaan Khurshid, instructor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston. “However, participants only wore the accelerometers for a week, which might not track their most regular activity patterns,” said Dr Andrew Freeman from National Jewish Health in Denver, who was not part of the research. Freeman often recommends his patients aim to exercise every day, encouraging them to engage in 30- minute exercise that’s hard enough to make them breathless. Still, there are patients who tell Freeman that they can only get a day or two of activity during the week but have more time on the weekend. Now the recent study gives him more confidence in helping them make that work. “This is at least inspiring enough for me to say to some patients, ‘Hey, there’s recent data that says if you can’t get your 30 minutes every day, getting 150 minutes over a weekend might be helpful,’” said Freeman. 8. Why did the participants wear accelerometers in the study? A. To remind them of their work. B. To warn them of accidents. C. To track their physical activity. D. To record their emotional changes. 9. How many minutes of moderate- intensity exercise are recommended for adults in a week? A. At least 30 minutes. B. At least 60 minutes. C. At least 90 minutes. D. At least 150 minutes. 10. Why does Freeman consider the study helpful? A. It gives him a way to guide his patients. B. It encourages him to work out at weekends. C. It provides an effective tool for his future study. D. It allows him more time for relaxation. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. A New Tool for Heart Health Research B. The Impact of Daily Exercise on Heart Health C. Physical Activity Prevents Heart Diseases in Adults D. Weekend- only Workouts Also Benefit Your Heart Health 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。《美国医学会杂志》上的一项研究表明，仅在周末集中锻炼可以和每周规律锻炼一样，都能显著降低心脏病风险。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““A group of more than 100,000 people used accelerometers (加速度计) to track their movement over the course of a week,” the study said. (研究称：“一组超过10万人使用加速度计来跟踪他们一周的运动。”)”可知，超过100,000人使用加速度计在一周内记录他们的活动，研究人员使用这些数据进行研究工作。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Adults need at least 150 minutes of moderate- intensity (中等强度) physical activity per week, according to The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.(根据《美国人体力活动指南》，成年人每周至少需要150分钟中等强度的体力活动。)”可知，成年人每周至少需要150分钟中等强度的体育锻炼。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段及最后一段““This is at least inspiring enough for me to say to some patients, ‘Hey, there’s recent data that says if you can’t get your 30 minutes every day, getting 150 minutes over a weekend might be helpful,’” said Freeman.( Freeman说：“这至少足以让我对一些病人说，‘嘿，最近的数据表明，如果你不能每天锻炼30分钟，周末锻炼150分钟可能会有帮助。’”)”可推断，这个研究结果为Dr. Freeman提供了指导患者的另一种方式，特别是对于那些只能周末锻炼的人。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Maybe, according to a new report published in the journal JAMA, which found that people who exercised throughout the week and “weekend warriors”, who packed their exercise into the weekend, saw a similar reduction in the risk of heart diseases.(根据发表在《美国医学会杂志》(JAMA)上的一份新报告，可能是这样的。该报告发现，那些一周都在锻炼的人和“周末战士”(把锻炼安排在周末)患心脏病的风险降低的程度相似。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了一项新的研究，该研究发现，集中在周末进行锻炼的“周末勇士”可以和每周均匀分配时间进行锻炼的人一样，他们在降低心脏病风险方面获得了相似的好处。故选D。 D According to Carol Henger, an urban ecologist at Fordham University, around 20-30 coyotes (郊狼) live in New York City, which was first reported by the New York Times. According to the journal, coyotes have been spotted wandering (游荡的) areas of NYC as early as 1994, with proof of breeding groups first established in 2016. NYC wasn’t originally home to coyotes, as most of the species came from the Great Plains and Southwest. Dr. Henger estimates a total of 20 — 30 coyotes are now residing in the city. Many of the coyotes currently living in the city can actually be traced back to the original group that first arrived in the Bronx, so they truly are multi-generational New Yorkers. The curious creatures can cover as much as 10 miles of open space per day — picture the route from Wall Street to the top of Central Park. So where are they living in NYC? Well, according to Urban Coyote Research, urban coyotes like to keep their distance from humans, choosing habitats (栖息地) in parks or wooded patches. Specifically in NYC, Dr. Henger discovered coyote feces (粪便) mainly around green spaces in the Bronx and areas throughout Queens over a 10-year span, shares the New York Times. In recent years, NYC has also seen coyotes wandering in Central Park. As for diet, urban coyotes had a more species-rich diet than the non-urban coyotes. From plants to rabbits, human leftovers to rodents rats, urban coyotes actually have quite a diverse diet. And though only a limited number of rats were traced in urban coyote feces according to Dr. Henger, at least something’s out there dealing with them until the city hires a rat catcher! 12. What does the text suggest about the coyotes’ habitats? A. They are native to NYC. B. They were first discovered in Central Park. C. They often change habitats throughout their lives. D. They originally came from the Great Plains and Southwest. 13. What does the underlined word “residing” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Sleeping. B. Hiding. C. Living. D. Visiting. 14. What can be known about urban coyotes? A. They are unfamiliar with NYC. B. They can wander up to 10 miles in a day. C. They prefer to live in populated urban areas. D. They have a limited diet consisting of only plants. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The varied diet of urban coyotes. B. Safety tips on living with coyotes. C. Coyotes’ daily movements in NYC. D. The arrival and settlement of coyotes. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。纽约市已成为20至30只郊狼的栖息地，这些动物适应了城市生活，拥有多样的食物来源，并在城市的绿地中建立了自己的生存空间。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“NYC wasn’t originally home to coyotes, as most of the species came from the Great Plains and Southwest.(纽约市最初并不是郊狼的家园，因为大多数物种来自大平原和西南部)”可知，郊狼最初的栖息地是大平原和西南部。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后“Many of the coyotes currently living in the city can actually be traced back to the original group that first arrived in the Bronx, so they truly are multi- generational New Yorkers.(目前生活在纽约的许多郊狼实际上可以追溯到第一批到达布朗克斯的原始群体，所以它们是真正的多代纽约狼)”可知，后文主要分析了生活在这里的这些土狼的来源，即指现在总共有20到30只土狼生活在这座城市，画线词义与Living意思相近。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The curious creatures can cover as much as 10 miles of open space per day — picture the route from Wall Street to the top of Central Park.(这些奇怪的生物每天可以在10英里的空地上行走——想象一下从华尔街到中央公园顶部的路线)”可知，郊狼每天活动范围可至十英里。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“As for diet, urban coyotes had a more species- rich diet than the non- urban coyotes. From plants to rabbits, human leftovers to rodents rats, urban coyotes actually have quite a diverse diet. And though only a limited number of rats were traced in urban coyote feces according to Dr. Henger, at least something’s out there dealing with them until the city hires a rat catcher!(在饮食方面，城市郊狼的饮食种类比非城市郊狼丰富。从植物到兔子，从人类的剩饭到啮齿类动物，城市叫卡不过的饮食其实相当多样化。尽管亨格博士在城市郊狼的粪便中只发现了有限数量的老鼠，但至少在市政府雇佣捕鼠员之前，有办法对付它们！)”可知，最后一段主要讲述了郊狼饮食的多样化。故选A。 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。 How to Improve Communication in the Workplace Communicating effectively with coworkers is key to having a positive experience at work.

Their house, surrounded by a garden full of greenery, was a picture of family happiness. Next to them, in a lonely courtyard, lived an old man, Mr. Thompson, who lived alone. He used to be a teacher, but now he’s retired. Mr. Thompson’s health wasn’t what it used to be. His children, now grown, lived far away in a noisy city, leaving him often alone. The Wilsons-Max, Sarah, and their two children-were his frequent visitors, ensuring he had companionship and assistance. Mr. Thompson, in turn, was a caring neighbor, always willing to watch over the Wilsons’ children and pets. One winter, Mr. Thompson had fell on the ice and hurt his leg. It was Max who had rushed to help him, making sure he was safe and comfortable until the doctor arrived. Since then, they had been even more careful to check on Mr. Thompson regularly. As spring arrived, the Wilsons’ garden bloomed (开花) with colorful flowers and fresh greenery. One sunny afternoon, Max’s youngest son, Daniel, looked up from playing and said, “Dad, I haven’t seen Mr. Thompson looking over the hedge (树篱) for a while. “Max stopped his work and a wave of realization washed over him as he looked at the thickening hedge. Max remembered seeing a sad look in Mr. Thompson’s eyes a few days before. However, he hadn’t paid much attention to it. Now, he understood that the growing hedge had made their kind neighbor feel lonely. He remembered Mr. Thompson’s kind eyes, usually looking over the hedge with a friendly wave. He thought about the times they had shared, the laughter and the knowledge Mr. Thompson had passed on to his children. Now, as he looked at the hedge that had grown wild and untrimmed (未修剪的), he felt a sense of loss. 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。 Determined to reconnect, Max gathered his family. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing the Wilsons, Mr. Thompson’s face lit up with joy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Determined to reconnect, Max gathered his family. “We need to help Mr. Thompson,” he said. “Let’s trim the hedge and clean up our yard so he can see us again.” Everyone agreed, excited to take action. They spent the afternoon cutting back the overgrown branches and clearing weeds. As they carefully trimmed the hedge, lowering its height, Mr. Thompson’s house gradually came back into view. Just then they saw an old man standing in the doorway. Seeing the Wilsons, Mr. Thompson’s face lit up with joy. He stepped outside, “Thank you, friends, for all of this.” he said, his voice shaking a little. Wilson shook his head with sorrow, while the children excitedly chatted with the old man about recent events. Then they tidy up the old man’s garden. They spent a sunny afternoon together, talking and laughing, just as before. The hedge is no longer a wall, but a symbol of their friendship. Mr. Thompson never felt lonely again, for he knew that the neighbors were always with him. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Wilson一家与邻居Thompson先生之间的交往和互动，展现了邻里之间的温情和互助。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“下定决心要重新建立联系，Max召集了全家人。”以及第二段首句内容“看到Wilson一家，Thompson的脸上露出了喜悦的神色。”可知，第一段可描写Wilson一家修剪了树篱，看到了Thompson先生。 ②由第二段首句内容“看到Wilson一家，Thompson脸上露出了喜悦的神色。”可知，第二段可描写两家人又开始了来往，Thompson先生也不再感到孤独。 2.续写线索：Max召集全家人一起帮助Thompson先生——于是，大家一起共同努力，开始修剪树篱——当树篱越来越矮的时候，他们终于看到了站在自家门口的Thompson先生——Thompson先生的脸上露出了喜悦的神色，激动地感激Wilson一家所做的事情——于是，Wilson一家又帮助老人收拾了院子，两家人恢复了联系——Thompson先生再也没有感到孤独，因为他知道自己有个好邻居 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①采取措施：take action/take measures ②进入视线：come into view/come into sight ③整理：tidy up/neaten 情绪类 ①兴奋的：excited/thrilled ②遗憾：sorrow/pity 【点睛】【高分句型1】As they carefully trimmed the hedge, lowering its height, Mr. Thompson’s house gradually came back into view.（运用了as引导的状语从句） 【高分句型2】Wilson shook his head with sorrow, while the children excitedly chatted with the old man about recent events.（运用了while引导的状语从句） 听力 1—5 ABACC 6—10 ACACB 11—15 CBBAA 16—20 CACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
