The park is divided into four lands, each themed around a different holiday. Understandably, given that the park is located in Santa Claus, Indiana, one of these is Christmas, with the others being Thanksgiving, Halloween and the Fourth of July. LEGOLAND California As one of a number of similar LEGOLAND theme parks located all over the world, LEGOLAND California was the first to open in the US. Located in Carlsbad not far from San Diego, it fits families with children aged 2-12. The park hosts a variety of attractions inspired by LEGO toys, along with a predictably large number of stores selling LEGO toys. Universal Studios Hollywood Belonging to one of the world’s leading movie studios, Universal Studios Hollywood features attractions showing the art of movie-making. The park is divided into three main sections—the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the Upper and Lower Lots, including Jurassic Park, The Ride, Revenge of the Mummy, The Ride and Transformer, etc. Visitors can explore those sections by themselves. SeaWorld San Diego SeaWorld San Diego offers the chain’s standard selection of live shows interactive animal exhibits and other theme park attractions. Located on Mission Bay, it combines thrilling rides with up-close-and-personal experiences, and also offers children’s favorite performances starring sea lions, dolphins and even cats and dogs. 1. What will visitors do in Holiday World? A. Appreciate the art of movie-making. B. Spend different festivals in a day. C. Enjoy a variety of attractions. D. Explore the world’s leading movie studios. 2. Which of the following offers visitors the experience of interacting with animals? A. SeaWorld San Diego. B. Universal Studios Hollywood. C. LEGOLAND California D. Holiday World. 3. Where may the text be taken from? A. A news report. B. A world geography textbook. C. A travel website. D. An entertainment magazine. B “Hey Alexa, play ‘You Raise Me Up’,” Kate Compton said from her home in Evanston, Illnois, where she teaches computer science at Northwestern University. A nearby smart speaker launched into an explanation: The song was not available, but it could be if Compton paid for a subscription. Alexa continued to walk us through the pricing plans. Compton tried again: “Hey Alexa, play classical music.” “Here’s a station you might like,” Alexa said, adding that the songs were hosted on Amazon Music. From 2019 to 2021, the use of voice assistants among online adults in the United States rose to 30 percent from 21 percent. While use is on the rise, social media jokes paint voice assistants as automated family members who can’t get much right. As Brian Glick, founder of Philadelphia-based software company Chain.io, puts it, “I am not apt (倾向于) to use voice assistants for things that can have bad results.” Take voice shopping, a feature Google and Amazon said would help busy families save time. Glick gave it a try and he’s haunted (烦扰) by the memory. Each time he asked Alexa to add a product – like toilet paper – it would read back a long product description: “Based on your order history, I found Charmin Ultra Soft Toilet Paper Family Mega Roll, 18 Count.” In the time he spent waiting for her to stop talking, he could have finished his shopping, Glick said. “I’m getting upset just thinking about it,” he added. An Amazon spokeswoman said Alexa’s understanding has improved significantly, despite increasingly complex requests from users. For its part, Google says it’s investing in the assistant’s language understanding and speech technology to help it better deal with nuance (细微差别) and respond in a natural way. But there’s a deeper emotional problem at play, says Compton. In developing voice assistants, she says, companies ignored the often unspoken rules of human small talk. We use small talk to show other people that we’re on the same wavelength – it’s a quick way to signal, “I see you, and I’m safe,” Compton said. 4. How did Alexa bother Compton? A. It often tried to fool her. B. It went too far sometimes. C. It responded to her slowly. D. It failed to understand her. 5. Why did Glick complain about Alexa’s voice shopping function? A. It was unhelpful. B. It was inaccurate. C. It made him overspend. D. It destroyed his privacy. 6. In which aspect should voice assistants be improved according to Compton? A. They should work more and talk less. B. They should speak in a cautious way. C. They should become effective chatters. D. They should willingly interact with their owners. 7. What would be the best title for the text? A. Hey, Alexa B. Ready for Alexa? C. Voice Assistants Pose a Threat to Us D. Voice Assistants Wear on Our Nerves C Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job. In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields the arts, sciences, and politics. High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist. How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood(情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort. Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.” 8. What does Ellen Langer’s study show? A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable. C. Simpler jobs require greater caution. D. Moderate effort produces the best result. 9. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who_______. A. is good at handling pressure B. works hard to become successful C. a has a natural talent for his job. D. gets on well with his co-workers 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless. C. A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind. D. Focusing on what you do raises productivity. 11. What does the text seem to advocate? A. Middle-of-the-road work habits. B. Balance between work and family. C. Long-standing cultural traditions. D. Harmony in the work environment. D Strawberry shortcake. Strawberry mochi. Strawberries a la mode. These may sound like springtime treats. But in Japan, the strawberry crop peaks in wintertime－a freezing season of superb berries. To recreate an artificial spring in the winter months, farmers grow their out- of-season delicacies in huge greenhouses heated with giant, gas-consuming heaters. The swing has made strawberry farming much more energy intensive. “We looked at all aspects, including transport, or what it takes to produce fertilizer－even then, heating had the biggest footprint,” said Naoki Yoshikawa, a researcher, who led the produce emissions study. Examples like these complicate the idea of eating locally, namely the idea embraced by some environmentally conscious shoppers of buying food that was produced relatively close by. They did this in part to cut down on the fuel and pollution associated with transportation. However, according to Miller, a professor at the University of Michigan, transportation of food often has less climate impact than the way it is produced. “It’s ideal if you can eat both in-season, and locally,” she said, “so your food is produced without having to add major energy consumption.” In Japan, the energy required to grow strawberries in winter hasn’t proven to be just a climate burden. It has also made strawberry production expensive, particularly as fuel costs have risen, hurting farmers’ bottom lines. Research and development of berry varieties, as well as fancy branding, has helped ease some of those pressures. Strawberry varieties in Japan are now sold with fancy names like Beni Hoppe (“red cheeks,”) and (“Bijin Hime beautiful princess”), helping farmers fetch higher prices. The most picture-perfect ones have even sold hundreds of dollars to be given as special gifts. Tochigi, north of Tokyo, has been developing a new variety of strawberry called Tochiaika, which produces a higher yield from the same inputs, making growing them more energy-efficient. Researchers in Sendai have been exploring ways to employ solar power to keep the temperature inside strawberry greenhouses warm. Strawberry farmer Ms. Yoshimura is working to gain local recognition for her “unheated strawberries. It would be nice,” she said, “if we could just make strawberries when it’s natural to.” 12. What makes the strawberry crop peak in winter? A. Solar power. B. Low temperature. C. Industrial heating. D. Global warming. 13. What might Miller think of some shoppers’ eco-friendly attempt? A. It’s useless. B. It’s insufficient. C. It’s ideal. D. It’s harmful. 14. How does the Japan strawberry industry respond to the rising production cost? A. It reduces investment in branding. B. It raises the prices of strawberries. C. It adjusts the strawberry growing season. D. It slows down the development of varieties. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Benefits from organic farming. B. New studies of strawberry varieties. C. Attitudes towards energy consumption. D. Efforts to conserve energy in production. 第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分 满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 We all know there’s good cholesterol (胆固醇) and bad cholesterol. ____16____ A better understanding of them will give us health benefits. Good fat is medically known as “brown fat”, typically found in the neck and shoulders of newborns. It makes up about 5 percent of an infant’s total body mass. ____17____ By age six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with. Researchers now believe that some people maintain brown fat deposits into adulthood. As a “good” kind, it is metabolically (新陈代谢地) efficient and actually burns excess energy to generate heat. ____18____ It is a way for your body to store excess energy that accumulates when you consume more calories than you use. It is widely distributed throughout the body. And it doesn’t use much energy, is hard to burn off, accumulates, and causes other health problems. The fat we gain over time is almost all white fat. The increasing level of white fat is one of the major causes of shortened life spans and chronic diseases. Thus, increasing the level of brown fat makes sense. Some studies suggest that taking a cold shower or an ice bath could activate brown fat to help your body burn more calories. Researchers have also found methods that may help people gain brown fat without the need for cold. ____19____ As brown fat is rich in iron, choosing iron supplements or food items rich in iron can keep your fat cells healthy. Nutrition is vital for your health, especially if you want to increase brown fat production. Though it is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep stores of brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as its stores are in infancy. ____20____. A. You can build fat from the food you eat. B. We lose most of our brown fat as we age. C. It turns out there’s good and bad fat, too. D. It’s wise to distinguish good fat from bad fat. E. But white fat is considered to do the opposite. F These methods oppose taking in extra calories. G. The goal is to maintain brown fat rather than recreate it. 第三部分 语言知识运用 （共两节 满分 30 分） 第一节 完形填空（本题共 15 小题，每小题 1 分，共计 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。 Robert was a librarian.

One of the major headaches for her was finding her way in the huge school building. It was a six-story building. On each floor, hallways stretched in four directions, learning to classrooms, laboratories and teachers’ offices. Somewhere in the building, there was also a library, a cafeteria and a gym. Having a poor sense of direction, Eva found it impossible to get around in such a huge building. All the different hallways and rooms were too much to think about, let alone commit to memory. She decided that she would memorize where her classes were and then pretend that the rest of the place didn’t exist. In her first PE class, Eva was shocked when Coach Pitt announced that everyone had to run one mile around the track outside. She searched the faces of her classmates for signs of panic. There was nothing she feared more than having to run a whole mile. To Eva, “a mile” was used to describe long distances. It was ten miles from her home to her grandfather’s, and that always seemed like a long way, even in a car! When Coach Pitt blew his whistle (哨子), Eva figured she would be left in the dust. However, while some of her classmates edged ahead, others actually fell behind. “It’s just the beginning,” she thought. “I’ll come in last for sure.” Soon Eva began to breathe hard, with her heart pounding and legs shaking. Feeling desperate, Eva started using a mind trick on herself. She stopped thinking about the word “mile”. Instead, she focused on reaching the shadow cast on the track by an oak tree up ahead. Then she concentrated on jogging to the spot where the track curved (拐弯). After that, she tried to see if she could complete her first lap. One lap turned into two, then three, then four. 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。 When Coach Pitt said “Nice work!” to her at the finish line, Eva was surprised. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eva decided to use the same trick to deal with the school building. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026 届高二月考英语试卷 第一部分 听力（本题共两节，20 个小题，共计 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了语音助手给我们带来的一些困惑以及语音助手需要做的一些改进。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段““Hey Alexa, play ‘You Raise Me Up’,” Kate Compton said from her home in Evanston, Illnois, where she teaches computer science at Northwestern University. A nearby smart speaker launched into an explanation: The song was not available, but it could be if Compton paid for a subscription. Alexa continued to walk us through the pricing plans. Compton tried again: “Hey Alexa, play classical music. ” “Here’s a station you might like,” Alexa said, adding that the songs were hosted on Amazon Music.”（凯特·康普顿在伊利诺斯州埃文斯顿家中说:“嘿，Alexa，播放《你鼓舞了我》。”她在西北大学教授计算机科学。旁边的一个智能音箱开始解释:这首歌目前还无法播放，但如果康普顿支付了订阅费，就可以播放。Alexa继续向我们介绍定价方案。康普顿又试了一次：“嘿，Alexa，放古典音乐吧。“这里有一个你可能会喜欢的电台，”Alexa说，并补充说这些歌曲是在亚马逊音乐上播放的。）可推知，Alexa困扰康普顿是因为有时它走得太远了，和康普顿想要的结果相差的比较多。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Glick gave it a try and he’s haunted (烦扰) by the memory. Each time he asked Alexa to add a product – like toilet paper – it would read back a long product description: “Based on your order history, I found Charmin Ultra Soft Toilet Paper Family Mega Roll, 18 Count.” In the time he spent waiting for her to stop talking, he could have finished his shopping, Glick said. “I’m getting upset just thinking about it,” he added.”（格利克尝试了一下，但他一直被这段记忆所困扰。每次他让Alexa添加一种产品——比如卫生纸——它都会读出一段很长的产品描述:“根据您的订单记录，我找到了Charmin超软卫生纸家庭超大卷，18张。”格利克说，在他等待她停止说话的时间里，他本可以买完东西。“一想到这件事，我就心烦意乱，”他补充说。）可知，格利克抱怨Alexa的语音购物功能是因为它毫无帮助。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In developing voice assistants, she says, companies ignored the often unspoken rules of human small talk. We use small talk to show other people that we’re on the same wavelength – it’s a quick way to signal, “I see you, and I’m safe,” Compton said.”（她说，在开发语音助手的过程中，公司忽视了人类闲聊中往往不言而喻的规则。康普顿说，我们用闲聊来向别人表明我们的想法是一致的——这是一种快速的信号，“我看到你了，我很安全。”）可推知，根据康普顿的观点，语音助手应该改进的方面是他们应该成为有效的健谈者。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第二段“From 2019 to 2021, the use of voice assistants among online adults in the United States rose to 30 percent from 21 percent. While use is on the rise, social media jokes paint voice assistants as automated family members who can’t get much right. As Brian Glick, founder of Philadelphia-based software company Chain. io, puts it, “I am not apt (倾向于) to use voice assistants for things that can have bad results. ””）（从2019年到2021年，美国在线成年人中使用语音助手的比例从21%上升到30%。虽然语音助手的使用量在上升，但社交媒体上的笑话把语音助手描绘成不能正确处理很多事情的自动化家庭成员。正如费城软件公司Chain的创始人布莱恩·格里克所说。io表示，“我不倾向于在可能产生坏结果的事情上使用语音助手。”）可知，文章主要讲的是语音助手给我们带来的一些困惑以及语音助手需要做的一些改进。故文章最好的标题是“语音助手让我们神经紧张”。故选D项。 C Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job. In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields the arts, sciences, and politics. High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist. How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood(情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort. Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.” 8 What does Ellen Langer’s study show? A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable. C. Simpler jobs require greater caution. D. Moderate effort produces the best result. 9. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who_______. A. is good at handling pressure B. works hard to become successful C. a has a natural talent for his job. D. gets on well with his co-workers 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless. C. A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind. D. Focusing on what you do raises productivity. 11. What does the text seem to advocate? A. Middle-of-the-road work habits. B. Balance between work and family. C. Long-standing cultural traditions. D. Harmony in the work environment. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了许多人认为工作到最大限度是成功的秘诀，但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果。所以要适度工作，工作时要有积极的情绪，这会让自己在工作中更有效率。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job.(许多人认为工作到最大限度是成功的秘诀，但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果。)”和第二段中“In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new a made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all.(在哈佛大学Ellen Langer领导的一项研究中，研究人员要求人们将句子翻译成一种新的虚构的语言。那些事先适度练习这门语言的受试者比那些全力练习或根本不练习的受试者犯的错误要少。)”可知，第一段提出主题，即适度的工作也会带来成果，接着第二段作者用Ellen Langer的研究来证明这一点，由此可推知，Ellen Langer的研究表明适度的努力会产生最好的结果。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office.(而他那些在会议室吃饭时闲聊的同事们则在角落办公室里得到不屑的目光。)”可知，while前后是对比关系，那些在会议室吃饭时闲聊的同事会得到别人不屑的目光，即被认为不努力工作，相反，那些在办公桌前吃午饭的年轻银行家可能被视为是一个努力工作以求成功的人，由此可知，划线单词go-getter，指的是那些努力工作以求成功的人，故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity.(此外，许多研究表明，积极的情绪能够提高生产力和创造力。 )”可知，积极的情绪能够提高生产力和创造力，由此可推知，愉快的心情有助于创造性思维。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job.(但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果)”和第二段中“High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist.(高尽责性与低工作表现有关，尤其是在简单的工作中，追求完美并不值得。)”可知，文章主要介绍研究表明适度的工作也会带来成果，所以文章提倡适度工作，即中庸的工作习惯。故选A。 D Strawberry shortcake. Strawberry mochi. Strawberries a la mode. These may sound like springtime treats. But in Japan, the strawberry crop peaks in wintertime－a freezing season of superb berries. To recreate an artificial spring in the winter months, farmers grow their out- of-season delicacies in huge greenhouses heated with giant, gas-consuming heaters. The swing has made strawberry farming much more energy intensive. “We looked at all aspects, including transport, or what it takes to produce fertilizer－even then, heating had the biggest footprint,” said Naoki Yoshikawa, a researcher, who led the produce emissions study. Examples like these complicate the idea of eating locally, namely the idea embraced by some environmentally conscious shoppers of buying food that was produced relatively close by. They did this in part to cut down on the fuel and pollution associated with transportation. However, according to Miller, a professor at the University of Michigan, transportation of food often has less climate impact than the way it is produced. “It’s ideal if you can eat both in-season, and locally,” she said, “so your food is produced without having to add major energy consumption.” In Japan, the energy required to grow strawberries in winter hasn’t proven to be just a climate burden. It has also made strawberry production expensive, particularly as fuel costs have risen, hurting farmers’ bottom lines. Research and development of berry varieties, as well as fancy branding, has helped ease some of those pressures. Strawberry varieties in Japan are now sold with fancy names like Beni Hoppe (“red cheeks,”) and (“Bijin Hime beautiful princess”), helping farmers fetch higher prices. The most picture-perfect ones have even sold hundreds of dollars to be given as special gifts. Tochigi, north of Tokyo, has been developing a new variety of strawberry called Tochiaika, which produces a higher yield from the same inputs, making growing them more energy-efficient. Researchers in Sendai have been exploring ways to employ solar power to keep the temperature inside strawberry greenhouses warm. Strawberry farmer Ms. Yoshimura is working to gain local recognition for her “unheated strawberries. It would be nice,” she said, “if we could just make strawberries when it’s natural to.” 12. What makes the strawberry crop peak in winter? A. Solar power. B. Low temperature. C. Industrial heating. D. Global warming. 13. What might Miller think of some shoppers’ eco-friendly attempt? A. It’s useless. B. It’s insufficient. C. It’s ideal. D. It’s harmful. 14. How does the Japan strawberry industry respond to the rising production cost? A. It reduces investment in branding. B. It raises the prices of strawberries. C. It adjusts the strawberry growing season. D. It slows down the development of varieties. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Benefits from organic farming. B. New studies of strawberry varieties. C. Attitudes towards energy consumption. D. Efforts to conserve energy in production. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍日本农业利用燃烧煤油的温室，逆转了草莓自然生长季节，在冬季培育出了高品质草莓。然而，人们要为食用这些最早、最好的浆果付出高昂的成本。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“To recreate an artificial spring in the winter months, farmers grow their out-of-season delicacies in huge greenhouses heated with giant, gas-consuming heaters.(为了在冬季重现人工春天，农民们在巨大的温室里种植反季节美食，温室里用巨大的耗气加热器加热。)”可知，农民们通过在装有巨大高油耗的加热器的温室里展开种植，来实现在冬天培育草莓。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, according to Miller, a professor at the University of Michigan, transportation of food often has less climate impact than the way it is produced. “It’s ideal if you can eat both in-season, and locally,” she said, “so your food is produced without having to add major energy consumption.”(然而，密歇根大学教授米勒表示，食品运输对气候的影响通常比生产方式小。她说：“如果你既能在当季吃，又能在当地吃，那就太理想了，这样你的食物就可以在不增加主要能源消耗的情况下生产出来。”)”可知，这些消费者只做到了食用当地产的食物，而忽略了要食用当季的农产品，所以一些购物者的环保尝试做的还是不够的。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Strawberry varieties in Japan are now sold with fancy names like Beni Hoppe (“red cheeks,”) and (“Bijin Hime beautiful princess”), helping farmers fetch higher prices.(日本的草莓品种现在以Beni Hoppe（“红脸颊”）和Bijin Hime（“美丽的公主”）等花哨的名字出售，帮助农民获得更高的价格。)”可知，日本草莓产业通过研究和开发草莓品种，以及精心打造品牌，有效帮助农民提高了草莓价格，从而缓解了生产成本上升带来的压力。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Tochigi, north of Tokyo, has been developing a new variety of strawberry called Tochiaika, which produces a higher yield from the same inputs, making growing them more energy-efficient. Researchers in Sendai have been exploring ways to employ solar power to keep the temperature inside strawberry greenhouses warm. Strawberry farmer Ms. Yoshimura is working to gain local recognition for her “unheated strawberries. It would be nice,” she said, “if we could just make strawberries when it’s natural to.”(东京北部的Tochigi一直在开发一种名为Tochiaika的新品种草莓，这种草莓在相同的投入下产量更高，使种植更节能。仙台的研究人员一直在探索如何利用太阳能来保持草莓温室内的温度。草莓种植者Yoshimura女士正在努力为她的“未加热”草莓赢得当地的认可。“如果我们能在自然的时候产出草莓，那就太好了，”她说)”可知，最后一段介绍了三种日本当地草莓产业的新实践：栃木市在开发一种在相同投入条件下产量更高的草莓新品种，从而提高了种植的能源效率；仙台的研究人员一直在探索利用太阳能来保持草莓温室内温暖的方法；草莓种植农户吉村女士研发出无需在煤油加热的温室种植草莓的技术。这三种实践的共同之处在于，他们均在努力减少草莓种植过程中的能源消耗，即：本段主要讲的是在草莓生产中努力节约能源，故选D。 第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分 满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 We all know there’s good cholesterol (胆固醇) and bad cholesterol. ____16____ A better understanding of them will give us health benefits. Good fat is medically known as “brown fat”, typically found in the neck and shoulders of newborns. It makes up about 5 percent of an infant’s total body mass. ____17____ By age six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with. Researchers now believe that some people maintain brown fat deposits into adulthood. As a “good” kind, it is metabolically (新陈代谢地) efficient and actually burns excess energy to generate heat. ____18____ It is a way for your body to store excess energy that accumulates when you consume more calories than you use. It is widely distributed throughout the body. And it doesn’t use much energy, is hard to burn off, accumulates, and causes other health problems. The fat we gain over time is almost all white fat. The increasing level of white fat is one of the major causes of shortened life spans and chronic diseases. Thus, increasing the level of brown fat makes sense. Some studies suggest that taking a cold shower or an ice bath could activate brown fat to help your body burn more calories. Researchers have also found methods that may help people gain brown fat without the need for cold. ____19____ As brown fat is rich in iron, choosing iron supplements or food items rich in iron can keep your fat cells healthy. Nutrition is vital for your health, especially if you want to increase brown fat production. Though it is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep stores of brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as its stores are in infancy. ____20____. A. You can build fat from the food you eat. B. We lose most of our brown fat as we age. C. It turns out there’s good and bad fat, too. D. It’s wise to distinguish good fat from bad fat. E. But white fat is considered to do the opposite. F. These methods oppose taking in extra calories. G. The goal is to maintain brown fat rather than recreate it. 【答案】16. C 17. B 18. E 19. A 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。长期以来，脂肪一直被认为是危害人体健康，引发各类疾病的罪魁祸首。但实际上脂肪也有好坏之分：一种是不招人待见的白色脂肪，即我们常说的“肥肉”，它在不断地存储热量；另一种则是棕色脂肪，它的主要功能是生热，能帮助人体消耗更多的能量，加速机体新陈代谢。 16题详解】 根据上文“We all know there’s good cholesterol (胆固醇) and bad cholesterol. (我们都知道有好胆固醇和坏胆固醇。)”和下文“Good fat is medically known as “brown fat”, typically found in the neck and shoulders of newborns.

(它约占婴儿总体重的5%。)”和下文“By age six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with. (到六岁时，我们的棕色脂肪还不到我们出生时的5%。)”可知，随着年龄的增长，我们会失去很多棕色脂肪。选项B“随着年龄的增长，我们失去了大部分棕色脂肪。”和上下文意思一致。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据下文“It is a way for your body to store excess energy that accumulates when you consume more calories than you use. It is widely distributed throughout the body. And it doesn’t use much energy, is hard to burn off, accumulates, and causes other health problems. (这是你的身体储存多余能量的一种方式，当你消耗的热量超过你使用的热量时，这些能量就会积累起来。它广泛分布在全身。而且它不消耗太多能量，很难燃烧、积累，还会导致其他健康问题。)”可知，下文介绍的是白色脂肪的坏处。选项E“但是白色脂肪被认为起到了相反的作用。”和下文意思一致。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Researchers have also found methods that may help people gain brown fat without the need for cold. (研究人员还发现了一些方法，可以帮助人们在不需要感冒的情况下获得棕色脂肪。)”可知，接下来要介绍增加棕色脂肪的方法。选项A“你可以从你吃的食物中增加脂肪。”和上文意思一致。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Though it is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep stores of brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as its stores are in infancy. (尽管增加棕色脂肪是有帮助的，但一些科学家认为，他们将学会如何在整个成年期保持棕色脂肪的储存量和婴儿期数量一样大和活跃。)”可知，这里提到我们要保持棕色脂肪的数量和婴儿期数量一样大就可以了。选项G“目标是保持棕色脂肪，而不是重新创造。”和上文意思一致。故选G。 第三部分 语言知识运用 （共两节 满分 30 分） 第一节 完形填空（本题共 15 小题，每小题 1 分，共计 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。 Robert was a librarian.

One of the major headaches for her was finding her way in the huge school building. It was a six-story building. On each floor, hallways stretched in four directions, learning to classrooms, laboratories and teachers’ offices. Somewhere in the building, there was also a library, a cafeteria and a gym. Having a poor sense of direction, Eva found it impossible to get around in such a huge building. All the different hallways and rooms were too much to think about, let alone commit to memory. She decided that she would memorize where her classes were and then pretend that the rest of the place didn’t exist. In her first PE class, Eva was shocked when Coach Pitt announced that everyone had to run one mile around the track outside. She searched the faces of her classmates for signs of panic. There was nothing she feared more than having to run a whole mile. To Eva, “a mile” was used to describe long distances. It was ten miles from her home to her grandfather’s, and that always seemed like a long way, even in a car! When Coach Pitt blew his whistle (哨子), Eva figured she would be left in the dust. However, while some of her classmates edged ahead, others actually fell behind. “It’s just the beginning,” she thought. “I’ll come in last for sure.” Soon Eva began to breathe hard, with her heart pounding and legs shaking. Feeling desperate, Eva started using a mind trick on herself. She stopped thinking about the word “mile”. Instead, she focused on reaching the shadow cast on the track by an oak tree up ahead. Then she concentrated on jogging to the spot where the track curved (拐弯). After that, she tried to see if she could complete her first lap. One lap turned into two, then three, then four. 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。 When Coach Pitt said “Nice work!” to her at the finish line, Eva was surprised. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eva decided to use the same trick to deal with the school building. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 When Coach Pitt said “Nice work!” to her at the finish line, Eva was surprised. Never in her wildest dream had she imagined that she could achieve such an eye-catching score! Conquering this one mile was a milestone in her running career! Amazingly, Coach Pitts’ positive recognition installed an enormous sense of achievement into her heart. Enthusiastic cheers and thunderous applauses from her classmates kept her on the top of the world. Breathless and exhausted, she realized that overcoming seemingly the toughest challenges just needed a smart strategy like her mind trick. Her initial self-doubt gave way to self-confidence. Being a freshman, she tended to get lost in the 6-story maze, leaving her so helpless. Staring at the towering teaching building, Eva came up with a good idea, with a smile blooming across her face. Eva decided to use the same trick to deal with the school building. No sooner had she returned to the confusing maze than she set out to explore the first floor. Convinced that her mind trick would locate her in the school as soon as possible, she came to a gym, which was well-equipped with various workout facilities. Next to the gym was a cafeteria, which provided a wide range of foods and drinks. As Eva walked back to her classroom, she noticed that she felt less overwhelmed by this huge complex. Time ticking away, Eva eventually got familiar with the vast maze in the way she finished the one-mile run. One lap at a time did work! So did one floor a week! It dawned on her that goals are easier to achieve in small steps. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了高中生Eva因为方向感不强，经常在学校里迷路。在一次体育课上，教练要求他们沿着外面的跑道跑一英里，Eva对此感到害怕，认为自己肯定是最后一名。跑了一会，Eva开始呼吸困难，心跳加速、双腿颤抖，她开始运用心术，集中注意力于到达投射在跑道上的橡树影。就这样，她跑了一圈又一圈。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当Peter教练在终点线对她说：‘干得好！’时，Eva很惊讶。”可知，第一段可描写Eva对此的反应以及她对自身能力的重新认知和从这次经历中获得的启示。 ②由第二段首句内容“Eva决定用同样手段来对付学校大楼。”可知，第二段可描写Eva运用心术这一积极的心理暗示策略来记忆学校大楼的布局，以及通过这件事她所收获的感悟。 2.续写线索：充满成就感——重新认知——想出主意——运用心术记忆学校大楼——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware ②克服：overcome/get over ③开始做：set out to do/set about doing 情绪类 ①自信的：self-confidence/self-faith ②无助的：helpless/powerless 【点睛】[高分句型1] Never in her wildest dream had she imagined that she could achieve such an eye-catching score!（由连接词that引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] No sooner had she returned to the confusing maze than she set out to explore the first floor. （由no sooner…than…引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型3] Next to the gym was a cafeteria, which provided a wide range of foods and drinks.（由关系代词which引导的非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
