Which type of music did Charlie Watts play in a band after graduation? A. Classic music. B. Jazz music. C. Rock music. 18. Where was Charlie Watts working when asked to join the band? A. At a university. B. At an advertisement agency. C. In a fashion design company. 19. Where were the band members originally from? A. England. B. The US. C. Brazil. 20. How could Charlie Watts be best described? A. A wild singer. B. A loud singer. C. A quiet player. 【答案】17. B 18. B 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】In rock music, we have The Beatles, Queen, The Doors, and of course, The Rolling Stones, the last of which has suffered a horrible loss, with the passing of the Stones’ drummer, Charlie Watts. As we honor this famous rock star by looking back through his life, we find quite an unfamiliar story. Before music stardom, Charlie Watts graduated from college and pursued work in illustration. He played the drums in an amateur jazz band and had no interest in rock music. However, shortly after Watts started professionally playing blues music and working full - time at an advertisement agency, his life completely changed. He met Stones’ members, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger, who had a small band and were eager to persuade him to join the group. Watts almost turned down joining the group that would someday become one of the world’s most famous bands. After finally accepting, the band left their native country of England to spread their music worldwide. Through the 60 years of Watts’ being in The Rolling Stones, the band played on trucks in New York, London and Brazil. However, despite Watts’ fame, he described himself as a quiet person and never wanted media attention. This contrasted with the rest of the group, known for their loud and wild personalities. 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Five Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Practices to Try Traditional Chinese Medicine has been an essential part of Chinese culture for thousands of years. If you’re new to TCM, here are five popular practices you might want to explore during your stay in China. Acupuncture Acupuncture is one of the most well-known TCM practices. It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow. You likely won’t feel anything, although it may ache when the correct depth is reached. Cupping Cupping therapy (疗法) involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body. Cupping therapy can cause small, painless bruises (瘀血) that usually fade in a few days, which are normal. Gua sha Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴). Distinctive red or purple spots appear on the skin surface due to scraping. Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage. You may feel some discomfort during or after a session. Moxibustion Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system. It may be worth a try, but remember that it’s better to be done by a skilled professional. 21. If someone feels tense in his muscle, which practice can he turn to? A. Acupuncture. B. Cupping. C. Gua sha. D. Moxibustion. 22. How is Tuina different from other practices? A. It is painless. B. It stimulates energy flow. C. It needs various skills. D. It employs different tools. 23. What do the listed practices have in common? A. They all cause discomfort. B. They have the same function. C. They stimulate specific points on the body. D. They can improve people’s health condition. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了中国传统医学（TCM）中的五种流行疗法，包括针灸、拔罐、刮痧、推拿和艾灸。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cupping部分的“Cupping therapy involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body.(拔罐疗法涉及将加热的杯子放在皮肤上以产生效果。它通常用于缓解肌肉紧张和从体内去除有害物质。)”可知，拔罐疗法常用于缓解肌肉紧张，因此如果有人感到肌肉紧张，他可以选择拔罐疗法。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage部分的“Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage.(推拿是一种中国式的按摩，涉及各种技术，如按压和拉伸，但要记住，它并不是一种温和或放松的按摩。)”可知，推拿与其他疗法不同之处在于它涉及多种技术，需要掌握不同的技能。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Acupuncture部分的“It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow.(它涉及将细针推入身体的特定穴位，以刺激能量流动。)”、Cupping部分的“It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body.(它通常用于缓解肌肉紧张，并从体内去除有害物质。)”、Gua sha部分的“Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴).(刮痧或刮疗是一种技术，涉及使用扁平、边缘光滑的工具轻轻刮擦皮肤，以刺激血液和淋巴的流动。)”、Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage部分的“Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage.(推拿是一种中国式的按摩，涉及各种技术，如按压和拉伸，但要记住，它并不是一种温和或放松的按摩。)”和Moxibustion部分的“Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system.(艾灸涉及在皮肤附近燃烧干燥的艾草，以温暖和刺激身体的特定穴位，从而改善循环并增强免疫系统。)”可知，它们的共同点是改善人们的健康状况。故选D。 B The world was astonished on Wednesday when half of the Nobel Prize in chemistry went to US scientist David Baker for “computational protein design” and the other half to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper in London for “protein structure prediction”. There is no doubt that they have made amazing breakthroughs. The Nobel Prize committee remarked that “they broke the code for proteins’ amazing structures”. What drew global attention is the fact that both Hassabis and Jumper come from Google DeepMind, which specializes in artificial intelligence, and they created an AI model that fundamentally changes the way to study a protein’s structure. It’s remarkable that the AI model Hassabis and Jumper developed is central to understanding the structure of proteins, in which amino acids (氨基酸) are linked together in long chains and then fold in a manner that plays a decisive role in its functioning. Since the 1970s, researchers have been trying to predict protein structures from their amino acid chains so as to gain a deeper understanding of their functions, for which they even launched Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction. For long the accuracy rate of predictions was just about 40 percent, far below the required 90 percent. It was not until Hassabis and Jumper developed the AI model AlphaFold that the rate reached 60 percent, which has since got better with AlphaFold 2. By understanding the 3D structure of a protein, scientists can conclude its role and how it interacts with other molecules (分子), helping study diseases and develop new drugs. Besides, predicting protein structures helps in better understanding the origins of life, which is linked to the Nobel Prize in physiology that went to researches in mRNA. All these date back to Hassabis and Jumper’ s AlphaFold model developed years ago. Clearly, AI has helped humans by making endless computations easy, in the process speeding up studies of the protein structure. The scientists who developed it deserve the prize as more scientists will now be encouraged to study it. 24. What is the function of paragraph 1? A. To introduce the topic. B. To explain the problem. C. To describe the situation. D. To provide the background. 25. How does the author organize paragraph 3? A. By showing numbers. B. By giving a definition. C. By offering facts and truth. D. By giving examples. 26. What can we learn about Hassabis and Jumper? A. They broke the code for amino acids. B. They drew little attention to an AI model. C. They sped up studies of the diseases and drugs. D. They predicted protein structure more accurately. 27. Which best describes Hassabis and Jumper’s contributions? A. Profitable. B. Valuable. C. Unidentified. D. Impractical. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，主要报道了2020年诺贝尔化学奖颁发给了在“计算蛋白质设计”和“蛋白质结构预测”领域做出突出贡献的科学家。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The world was astonished on Wednesday when half of the Nobel Prize in chemistry went to US scientist David Baker for “computational protein design” and the other half to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper in London for “protein structure prediction”.(周三，当诺贝尔化学奖的一半颁给了美国科学家David Baker，以表彰他在“计算蛋白质设计”方面的贡献，而另一半则颁给了伦敦的Demis Hassabis和John M. Jumper，以表彰他们在“蛋白质结构预测”方面的贡献时，全世界都为之震惊。)”可知，第一段主要介绍了诺贝尔化学奖的颁发情况，即引出了本文的话题。故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“It’s remarkable that the AI model Hassabis and Jumper developed is central to understanding the structure of proteins, in which amino acids (氨基酸) are linked together in long chains and then fold in a manner that plays a decisive role in its functioning.(值得注意的是，Hassabis和Jumper开发的AI模型对于理解蛋白质的结构至关重要，其中氨基酸连接成长链，然后以某种方式折叠，这对蛋白质的功能起着决定性的作用。)”可知，第三段主要通过提供事实和真相来组织内容，介绍了Hassabis和Jumper开发的AI模型在理解蛋白质结构方面的重要性。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“It was not until Hassabis and Jumper developed the AI model AlphaFold that the rate reached 60 percent, which has since got better with AlphaFold 2.(直到Hassabis和Jumper开发了AI模型AlphaFold，预测准确率才达到了60%，而后来随着AlphaFold 2的出现，准确率进一步提高。)”可知，Hassabis和Jumper开发的AI模型提高了蛋白质结构预测的准确率，因此我们可以从文章中了解到他们更准确地预测了蛋白质结构。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Clearly, AI has helped humans by making endless computations easy, in the process speeding up studies of the protein structure. The scientists who developed it deserve the prize as more scientists will now be encouraged to study it.(显然，人工智能通过使无尽的计算变得容易，帮助了人类，从而加快了蛋白质结构的研究。开发它的科学家们值得这个奖项，因为这将鼓励更多的科学家去研究它。)”可知，Hassabis和Jumper的贡献对于科学研究具有重要意义，他们的成果不仅加快了蛋白质结构的研究，还鼓励了更多的科学家去研究这一领域。因此，他们的贡献是有价值的。故选B。 C It’s a wild world out there online, with dis-and misinformation flying around at pace. I’m aware that people’s making things up is not new. But what is new is the influence that troublemakers have. That is obvious in information gathered by the Behavioral Insights Team (BIT). The survey of 2,000 UK adults highlights how confusing the Wild West Web is at present. While 59% of those surveyed by BIT think they can find false information online, only 36% of people were confident that others could find fake news. That’s a problem for two reasons. One is our low confidence in other people’s ability to identify false stories. The other is the gap in insight between our own abilities and those of the public. I doubt that if we measured how well people distinguish disinformation from the truth, it’d be closer to the number of 36% than59%. In short, we tend to think we’re smarter than we are. Don’t believe me? For my first book, YouTubers, I authorized (授权) a survey by YouGov to see how well the public recognized major figures on the platform. The team at YouGov recommended that, I should add someone who didn’t exist among the real names to identify the percentage of people who were lying. A worrying number of people surveyed confidently said they knew the person invented by the team — and knew them well. The BIT recommended governments and social media platforms fight against mis - and disinformation. First among them is to mark false information as soon as it is found, to try and make the public aware before they share. Additionally, platforms should be stricter in how much legal but harmful content they show. Whether any of this will work is tough to say. I’ve been looking at the science alongside studies and surveys like BIT, and every positive intervention (干预) also appears to have its disadvantages. 28. What does “that” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. The wild world. B. The false information. C. The impact of misinformation. D. The information gathered by BIT. 29. Why does the author mention the survey conducted by YouGov? A. To raise our awareness of misinformation. B. To show our ability to find misinformation. C. To display our wisdom to know misinformation. D. To show we’re poor in identifying misinformation. 30. What might the author continue talking about? A. The science he will look at. B. The survey BIT will conduct lately. C. The weaknesses of positive intervention. D. His new book about misinformation. 31. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A science magazine. B. A classic novel. C. A guide plan. D. An exam paper. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了网络世界中虚假信息的泛滥以及人们对此的识别能力。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“It’s a wild world out there online, with dis-and misinformation flying around at pace. I’m aware that people’s making things up is not new. But what is new is the influence that troublemakers have.(这是一个疯狂的网络世界，虚假和错误的信息飞快地飞来飞去。我知道人们编造故事并不是什么新鲜事。但什么是新是麻烦制造者的影响)”可知，这里的“that”指代的是前文提到的捣乱者（即传播虚假信息的人）所产生的影响，即虚假信息的影响。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“A worrying number of people surveyed confidently said they knew the person invented by the team — and knew them well.(令人担忧的是，相当数量的被调查者自信地表示他们认识这个团队虚构的人，并且很了解他们)”可知，作者提到YouGov的调查是为了展示我们在识别虚假信息方面的不足。这个调查结果显示，很多人无法识别出虚构的人物，反而自信地表示认识并了解他们。由此推知，我们在识别虚假信息方面的能力很差。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I’ve been looking at the science alongside studies and surveys like BIT, and every positive intervention also appears to have its disadvantages.(我一直在研究像BIT这样的科学研究和调查，而且每一种积极的干预措施似乎都有其不利之处)”可知，作者提到每一种积极的干预措施都有其不利之处。由此推知，接下来很可能会继续讨论这些不利之处，即积极干预的弱点。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要讨论了网络世界中虚假信息的泛滥以及人们对此的识别能力。由此可知，文章讨论了与科技和社会紧密相关的虚假信息问题，这类话题通常出现在科学杂志或相关领域的出版物中。故选A。 D There are over 1.3 billion people living with disabilities worldwide, representing about 16 percent of the global population, according to the UN. Despite their numbers, this group is often ignored in society. This is where the Paralympic Games (残奥会) step in — to provide a platform for people’ s support. The Paralympics is not a secondary version of the Olympics but an equal celebration of athletic excellence. Yet, despite its significance, the Paralympics struggle for media attention and audience engagement. Many media organizations, focused on making money, often choose to replay the Olympic broadcasts rather than cover the Paralympic events live. This oversight contributes to a lack of public awareness and understanding of the athletes’ training and achievements. The importance of the Paralympics extends beyond the sports field. For the over 1.3 billion people with disabilities globally, the Paralympics is a vital reminder of the need for recognition and inclusion. The Paralympics have indeed showed this powerful change. Besides, the impact of the Paralympics should not be limited to the event itself.A broader social change is needed to address the challenges faced by people with disabilities daily. This means recognizing people with disabilities not as objects of pity, but as individuals with the same right to participate fully in society. The Paralympics show the Olympic spirit. Through their influence, they challenge us to expand our understanding of beauty, ability, and inclusion. Yet, the Paralympics alone cannot achieve the social change badly needed. It is up to us to see beyond disabilities and recognize the full humanity（人性） of people with disabilities. When the society can understand and include them, the Paralympics will have completed their greatest task: Creating a world where everyone is valued and respected. May the flame of the Paralympics not only light up the stadiums but also fire up global awareness, empathy, and action toward making the world a more inclusive place for everyone. 32. What’s the current situation about the disabled? A. They are treated equally. B. They are frequently neglected. C. People solve the problems timely. D. People show too much pity on them. 33. What does the underlined word “oversight” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Ignorance. B. Judgement. C. Appeal. D. Challenge. 34. Why is it necessary to host the Paralympic Games? A. To encourage people to exercise. B. To attract people to watch the games. C. To voice people’s opinion on life value. D. To make the disabled valued and respected. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Paralympics benefit the world. B. The Paralympics mean more beyond sports. C. The disabled share the same right in events. D. The disabled fulfil their dreams by working hard. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了残奥会对于残疾人群体以及社会的重要性。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Despite their numbers, this group is often ignored in society.(尽管他们数量众多，但这个群体在社会中往往被忽视。)”可知，残疾人群体在社会中往往被忽视。故选B。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Many media organizations, focused on making money, often choose to replay the Olympic broadcasts rather than cover the Paralympic events live.(许多媒体组织为了赚钱，往往选择重播奥运会广播，而不是现场报道残奥会赛事。)”可知，媒体没有给予足够的关注和报道，由此可知，这种疏忽导致公众对运动员的训练和成就缺乏了解和认识。因此，overnight意为“忽视”。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“When the society can understand and include them, the Paralympics will have completed their greatest task: Creating a world where everyone is valued and respected.(当社会能够理解并包容他们时，残奥会就完成了它最伟大的任务：创造一个每个人都受到重视和尊重的世界。)”可知，残奥会的目标是创造一个每个人都受到重视和尊重的世界，这实际上是在表达人们对生命价值的看法和态度。因此，举办残奥会是为了传达人们对生命价值的看法和态度。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“The importance of the Paralympics extends beyond the sports field.(残奥会的重要性远远超出了体育领域。)”可知，文章主要探讨了残奥会对于残疾人群体以及社会的重要性，强调了残奥会不仅是一个体育盛事，更是一个推动社会包容和尊重每个人的平台。因此，选项B“残奥会的意义远超体育”最能概括文章的主旨大意。故选B。 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Slovenia Green Routes (路线) is a network of multi-day cycling paths in the southeastern European country, with themes ranging from delicious food to cultural diversity. Should I do it alone or join a tour? For cyclists used to multi-day cycling journeys, these routes provide everything one might need for a trip. ____36____ Therefore, there’s enough time to enjoy the scenery along the way. What type of bike is best? Slovenia Green Routes combine a mixture of surfaces: the majority of time you’ll be on asphalt (沥青路) roads, but expect to also ride along farm roads and crowded paths. Gravel bikes combine the feel of a road bike with the toughness of a mountain bike. ____37____ Should I take my own bike? ____38____ Some cyclists won’t fly their own bike for trips less than two weeks. If you do want to rent, head to Visit Good Place for gravel bikes hire, as well as expert knowledge about Slovenia Green Routes. ____39____ The general rule is: think about what you can’t live without, then take half of it. You won’t need camping or cooking equipment, so it really comes down to personal items and tools. Most cyclists would be set with two T-shirts, two pairs of socks and two cycling shorts, plus raincoat. Besides, one set of regular clothes and toilet paper should be enough. ____40____ A.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了Slovenia Green Routes多日自行车旅行相关的一些信息。 【36题详解】 根据上文“For cyclists used to multi-day cycling journeys, these routes provide everything one might need for a trip.(对于习惯多日骑行之旅的骑行者来说，这些路线提供了旅行所需的一切)”和下文“Therefore, there’s enough time to enjoy the scenery along the way.(因此，有足够的时间来欣赏沿途的风景)”可知，空处承上启下，说明这些路线不太长，所以有足够的时间来欣赏沿途的风景。选项F“这些路线通常有30到35英里长”符合语境。故选F。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Gravel bikes combine the feel of a road bike with the toughness of a mountain bike.(砾石自行车结合了公路自行车的感觉和山地自行车的坚固性)”可知，上文说明砾石自行车的优点，选项D“因此，这种自行车是你最好的选择”承接上文，指出了砾石自行车是适合Slovenia Green Routes的最佳选择。故选D。 【38题详解】 根据下文“Some cyclists won’t fly their own bike for trips less than two weeks. If you do want to rent, head to Visit Good Place for gravel bikes hire, as well as expert knowledge about Slovenia Green Routes.(一些骑行者不会为少于两周旅行携带自己的自行车。如果你确实想租，可以去Visit Good Place租砾石自行车，还可以了解关于Slovenia Green Routes的专业知识)”可知，本段主要讨论的是是否应该自带自行车的问题。选项G“是否自带自行车是个人的问题”引领下文，概括了本段的主题。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据下文“The general rule is: think about what you can’t live without, then take half of it. You won’t need camping or cooking equipment, so it really comes down to personal items and tools.(一般规则是：想想你离不开什么，然后带上一半。你不需要露营或烹饪设备，所以实际上就是个人物品和工具)”可知，本段主要讨论的是为一次多日的自行车旅行应该准备什么的问题。选项E“我该如何为一次多日的自行车旅行做准备？”引领下文，提出了一个问题，即如何准备。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Most cyclists would be set with two T-shirts, two pairs of socks and two cycling shorts, plus raincoat. Besides, one set of regular clothes and toilet paper should be enough.(大多数骑行者会准备两件T恤、两双袜子和两条骑行短裤，外加雨衣。此外，一套常规衣服和卫生纸应该就够了)”可知，上文列举了骑行应该准备的物品。选项B“别忘了带修理爆胎的基本工具”承接上文，进一步补充了骑行者应该准备的物品，即修理爆胎的基本工具。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 认真阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 My family was in Grand Central Station around Christmastime while we ____41____ a man arguing with his friend. “I only need two more dollars for my train ticket home!” the man said.

And he was ready for it. Without taking his eyes off the ball, he reached up and pulled it out of the air. “I caught it!” he shouted to his dad and his grandpa. “I caught it with my bare hands!” “Nice catch!” Eric turned around and saw a small boy in a wheelchair. Eric handed him the baseball. “Here,” he said. “You can have it. I already got one.” The smile on the boy’ s face was a mile wide. Eric knew the boy’s name, Leo, and asked his phone number for another meeting. It was opening day of spring training and they had come out to the ball field to watch the Red Sox play. Eric’ s grandparents lived near Ft. Myers, Florida, where the Boston Red Sox come in late February to prepare for the season. Later, on the way home to Grandma’ s house, Eric kept his head down. When he thought of Leo, he tried to convince his parents to stay a few more days. “Wish we could go back to the ballpark and meet Leo tomorrow,” he said. “Maybe I’d catch another ball to put with my Little League trophies (战利品).” “That’s impossible, Eric,” his dad said. “We’re flying out early tomorrow morning.” “I know, I know,” Eric said, rolling the baseball around in his hand. “I just thought you and Mom might decide to stay a few more days.” “We were lucky to get that flight!” his dad said firmly. That night, a huge snowstorm moved into the Northeast. Arriving at the airport early the next morning, they were told all flights had been cancelled for the day. On the drive back to his grandparents’ house, it was obvious to Eric that his dad was upset. But when at Grandparents’ house, Eric’s dad began to joke about the canceled flight. “Another day in sunny Florida isn’t so bad,” he said. “I’m in no hurry to get back home, where my car’s probably buried in snow.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Grandpa suggested going out to the ball field again and they all agreed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eric could never forget the happy look on Leo’s face. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Grandpa suggested going out to the ball field again and they all agreed. It was mid-afternoon when another loud crack of the Red Sox bat sent a ball flying over the fence. Again, Eric caught the baseball in his bare hands. At that moment, Leo showed up in his wheelchair. Eric handed his ball to Leo. Leo said with a wide smile, “I never held a real baseball before.” Eric was very surprised and invited Leo to play with him. “Catch my ball!” said Leo excitedly and happily. （75words） Eric could never forget the happy look on Leo’ s face. It was worth a million baseballs. He helped Leo spend a different day for the first time. “Thank you, Eric. Today is my best day.” Leo said with joy. “You looked pretty good today.” Eric said. Eric’ s dad tapped him on the shoulder. “You looked pretty good today yourself, son.” Eric felt his dad had a special feeling of pride. The proudest of all was himself, Eric thought. He made a difference to a boy. （75words） 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了Eric在观看红袜队比赛时，成功接住了一个飞来的棒球，并将球赠送给了一个坐在轮椅上的小男孩Leo，给他带来了巨大的快乐。之后，埃里克希望能再次去球场与Leo见面，但原计划因父亲告知即将乘飞机离开而落空。然而，一场突如其来的暴风雪导致所有航班取消，使得他们不得不在佛罗里达多留一天，这让原本有些失落的Eric感到一丝欣慰，因为他有了再次见到Leo并可能再次接住棒球的机会。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“爷爷建议再次去棒球场，大家都同意了。”可知，第一段可描写Eric再次接住棒球并送给Leo，以及他们玩棒球的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“Eric永远忘不了利奥脸上洋溢的幸福神情。”可知，第二段可描写Leo对Eric表达感谢以及Eric的感悟。 2.续写线索：接住棒球——送给Leo——一起玩棒球——Leo感谢Eric——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 出现：show up/turn up 帮助：help/assist 轻拍：tap/clap 情绪类 高兴地：happily/cheerfully 惊讶的：surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1]It was mid-afternoon when another loud crack of the Red Sox bat sent a ball flying over the fence.(运用了when引导定语从句) [高分句型2]Eric felt his dad had a special feeling of pride.(运用了省略了that的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024~2025学年度第一学期期中考试 高二英语试题 说明：1.本试卷共10页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.在答题卡/纸的规定区域内填写学校、班级、姓名、考号等，否则无效。 3.请将答案按题号填涂或填写在答题卡/纸相应的答题处，否则不得分。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 该部分分为第一、第二两节。注意，回答听力部分时，请先将答案划在试卷上，听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一个小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where will the man probably go next?

If you’re new to TCM, here are five popular practices you might want to explore during your stay in China. Acupuncture Acupuncture is one of the most well-known TCM practices. It involves pushing fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow. You likely won’t feel anything, although it may ache when the correct depth is reached. Cupping Cupping therapy (疗法) involves placing heated cups on the skin to create an effect. It’s commonly used to relieve muscle tension and remove harmful substances from your body. Cupping therapy can cause small, painless bruises (瘀血) that usually fade in a few days, which are normal. Gua sha Gua sha or scraping therapy is a technique that involves gently scraping the skin with a flat, smooth-edged tool to stimulate the flow of blood and lymph (淋巴). Distinctive red or purple spots appear on the skin surface due to scraping. Tuina, or Pressure Point Massage Tuina is a form of Chinese massage that involves various techniques such as pressing and stretching but remember that it’s not a gentle or relaxing massage. You may feel some discomfort during or after a session. Moxibustion Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort (艾草) near the skin to warm and stimulate specific points on the body, improving circulation and boosting the immune system. It may be worth a try, but remember that it’s better to be done by a skilled professional. 21. If someone feels tense in his muscle, which practice can he turn to? A. Acupuncture. B. Cupping. C. Gua sha. D. Moxibustion. 22. How is Tuina different from other practices? A. It is painless. B. It stimulates energy flow. C. It needs various skills. D. It employs different tools. 23. What do the listed practices have in common? A. They all cause discomfort. B. They have the same function. C. They stimulate specific points on the body. D. They can improve people’s health condition. B The world was astonished on Wednesday when half of the Nobel Prize in chemistry went to US scientist David Baker for “computational protein design” and the other half to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper in London for “protein structure prediction”. There is no doubt that they have made amazing breakthroughs. The Nobel Prize committee remarked that “they broke the code for proteins’ amazing structures”. What drew global attention is the fact that both Hassabis and Jumper come from Google DeepMind, which specializes in artificial intelligence, and they created an AI model that fundamentally changes the way to study a protein’s structure. It’s remarkable that the AI model Hassabis and Jumper developed is central to understanding the structure of proteins, in which amino acids (氨基酸) are linked together in long chains and then fold in a manner that plays a decisive role in its functioning. Since the 1970s, researchers have been trying to predict protein structures from their amino acid chains so as to gain a deeper understanding of their functions, for which they even launched Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction. For long the accuracy rate of predictions was just about 40 percent, far below the required 90 percent. It was not until Hassabis and Jumper developed the AI model AlphaFold that the rate reached 60 percent, which has since got better with AlphaFold 2. By understanding the 3D structure of a protein, scientists can conclude its role and how it interacts with other molecules (分子), helping study diseases and develop new drugs. Besides, predicting protein structures helps in better understanding the origins of life, which is linked to the Nobel Prize in physiology that went to researches in mRNA. All these date back to Hassabis and Jumper’ s AlphaFold model developed years ago. Clearly, AI has helped humans by making endless computations easy, in the process speeding up studies of the protein structure. The scientists who developed it deserve the prize as more scientists will now be encouraged to study it. 24. What is the function of paragraph 1? A. To introduce the topic. B. To explain the problem. C. To describe the situation. D. To provide the background. 25. How does the author organize paragraph 3? A. By showing numbers. B. By giving a definition. C. By offering facts and truth. D. By giving examples. 26. What can we learn about Hassabis and Jumper? A. They broke the code for amino acids. B. They drew little attention to an AI model. C. They sped up studies of the diseases and drugs. D. They predicted protein structure more accurately. 27. Which best describes Hassabis and Jumper’s contributions? A. Profitable. B. Valuable. C. Unidentified. D. Impractical. C It’s a wild world out there online, with dis-and misinformation flying around at pace. I’m aware that people’s making things up is not new. But what is new is the influence that troublemakers have. That is obvious in information gathered by the Behavioral Insights Team (BIT). The survey of 2,000 UK adults highlights how confusing the Wild West Web is at present. While 59% of those surveyed by BIT think they can find false information online, only 36% of people were confident that others could find fake news. That’s a problem for two reasons. One is our low confidence in other people’s ability to identify false stories. The other is the gap in insight between our own abilities and those of the public. I doubt that if we measured how well people distinguish disinformation from the truth, it’d be closer to the number of 36% than59%. In short, we tend to think we’re smarter than we are. Don’t believe me? For my first book, YouTubers, I authorized (授权) a survey by YouGov to see how well the public recognized major figures on the platform. The team at YouGov recommended that, I should add someone who didn’t exist among the real names to identify the percentage of people who were lying. A worrying number of people surveyed confidently said they knew the person invented by the team — and knew them well. The BIT recommended governments and social media platforms fight against mis - and disinformation. First among them is to mark false information as soon as it is found, to try and make the public aware before they share. Additionally, platforms should be stricter in how much legal but harmful content they show. Whether any of this will work is tough to say. I’ve been looking at the science alongside studies and surveys like BIT, and every positive intervention (干预) also appears to have its disadvantages. 28. What does “that” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. The wild world. B. The false information. C. The impact of misinformation. D. The information gathered by BIT. 29. Why does the author mention the survey conducted by YouGov? A. To raise our awareness of misinformation. B. To show our ability to find misinformation. C. To display our wisdom to know misinformation. D. To show we’re poor in identifying misinformation. 30. What might the author continue talking about? A. The science he will look at. B. The survey BIT will conduct lately. C. The weaknesses of positive intervention. D. His new book about misinformation. 31. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A science magazine. B. A classic novel. C. A guide plan. D. An exam paper. D There are over 1.3 billion people living with disabilities worldwide, representing about 16 percent of the global population, according to the UN. Despite their numbers, this group is often ignored in society. This is where the Paralympic Games (残奥会) step in — to provide a platform for people’ s support. The Paralympics is not a secondary version of the Olympics but an equal celebration of athletic excellence. Yet, despite its significance, the Paralympics struggle for media attention and audience engagement. Many media organizations, focused on making money, often choose to replay the Olympic broadcasts rather than cover the Paralympic events live. This oversight contributes to a lack of public awareness and understanding of the athletes’ training and achievements. The importance of the Paralympics extends beyond the sports field. For the over 1.3 billion people with disabilities globally, the Paralympics is a vital reminder of the need for recognition and inclusion. The Paralympics have indeed showed this powerful change. Besides, the impact of the Paralympics should not be limited to the event itself.A broader social change is needed to address the challenges faced by people with disabilities daily. This means recognizing people with disabilities not as objects of pity, but as individuals with the same right to participate fully in society. The Paralympics show the Olympic spirit. Through their influence, they challenge us to expand our understanding of beauty, ability, and inclusion. Yet, the Paralympics alone cannot achieve the social change badly needed. It is up to us to see beyond disabilities and recognize the full humanity（人性） of people with disabilities. When the society can understand and include them, the Paralympics will have completed their greatest task: Creating a world where everyone is valued and respected. May the flame of the Paralympics not only light up the stadiums but also fire up global awareness, empathy, and action toward making the world a more inclusive place for everyone. 32. What’s the current situation about the disabled? A. They are treated equally. B. They are frequently neglected. C. People solve the problems timely. D. People show too much pity on them. 33. What does the underlined word “oversight” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Ignorance. B. Judgement. C. Appeal. D. Challenge. 34. Why is it necessary to host the Paralympic Games? A. To encourage people to exercise. B. To attract people to watch the games. C. To voice people’s opinion on life value. D. To make the disabled valued and respected. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Paralympics benefit the world. B. The Paralympics mean more beyond sports. C. The disabled share the same right in events. D. The disabled fulfil their dreams by working hard. 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Slovenia Green Routes (路线) is a network of multi-day cycling paths in the southeastern European country, with themes ranging from delicious food to cultural diversity.

And he was ready for it. Without taking his eyes off the ball, he reached up and pulled it out of the air. “I caught it!” he shouted to his dad and his grandpa. “I caught it with my bare hands!” “Nice catch!” Eric turned around and saw a small boy in a wheelchair. Eric handed him the baseball. “Here,” he said. “You can have it. I already got one.” The smile on the boy’ s face was a mile wide. Eric knew the boy’s name, Leo, and asked his phone number for another meeting. It was opening day of spring training and they had come out to the ball field to watch the Red Sox play. Eric’ s grandparents lived near Ft. Myers, Florida, where the Boston Red Sox come in late February to prepare for the season. Later, on the way home to Grandma’ s house, Eric kept his head down. When he thought of Leo, he tried to convince his parents to stay a few more days. “Wish we could go back to the ballpark and meet Leo tomorrow,” he said. “Maybe I’d catch another ball to put with my Little League trophies (战利品).” “That’s impossible, Eric,” his dad said. “We’re flying out early tomorrow morning.” “I know, I know,” Eric said, rolling the baseball around in his hand. “I just thought you and Mom might decide to stay a few more days.” “We were lucky to get that flight!” his dad said firmly. That night, a huge snowstorm moved into the Northeast. Arriving at the airport early the next morning, they were told all flights had been cancelled for the day. On the drive back to his grandparents’ house, it was obvious to Eric that his dad was upset. But when at Grandparents’ house, Eric’s dad began to joke about the canceled flight. “Another day in sunny Florida isn’t so bad,” he said. “I’m in no hurry to get back home, where my car’s probably buried in snow.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Grandpa suggested going out to the ball field again and they all agreed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eric could never forget the happy look on Leo’s face. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
