They connect us with each other, providing a sense of timelessness and continuity. The experiences and memories that make up these traditions make us all a part of a special community-and they’re really fun! Some of the most long-standing traditions include the following: MOVING UP DAY Each spring the senior class promotes students to the next class year. This all-student occasion is organized by the senior class. This tradition has recently been split in two with a Senior Roast happening on the Thursday before the last day of classes. At this event, seniors sing songs and tell jokes. On the last day of classes, seniors gather students around the Sycamore where juniors are given college pins and seniors are given roses. CONVOCATION Opening Convocation celebrates the beginning of the academic year and the formal introduction of the new incoming class. A traditional part of this convocation is the candlelight ceremony. Symbolized by a candle flame, the spirit of the Wells connection is passed from alumni (校友) to students, signifying that Wells students give one another throughout their lives. TEA TIME Tea and coffee are served every Wednesday afternoon. Though the long dresses and china cups are gone, this break from afternoon classes is still a great time to get together with friends and professors. MINERVA Outside of Main, the College’s first building, sits the lovely statue of the Roman goddess Minerva, symbolizing wisdom and invention. The senior class decorates Minerva at the beginning of the school year, and Minerva remains decorated throughout the year. During the morning of the last day of classes, after singing around the Sycamore tree, the senior class takes turns kissing the feet of Minerva, believing she will bring success and prosperity to all graduating seniors. 21. What do we know about Moving Up Day? A. It is organized annually by juniors. B. It is held to reward excellent seniors. C. It is celebrated on two separate days. D. It is celebrated in two different colleges. 22. Which tradition connects all generations of Wells College students? A. MOVING UP DAY. B. CONVOCATION. C. TEA TIME. D. MINERVA. 23. Which of the following is believed to bring good luck? A. Senior Roast. B. Minerva. C. Tea and coffee. D. The candlelight. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是应用文。本文介绍了美国纽约州一所私立文理学院Wells College的一些传统。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This tradition has recently been split in two with a Senior Roast happening on the Thursday before the last day of classes. At this event, seniors sing songs and tell jokes. On the last day of classes, seniors gather students around the Sycamore where juniors are given college pins and seniors are given roses.(这一传统最近被分成了两部分，在最后一天上课前的星期四举行了一次高级烘焙。在这个活动中，学长们唱歌、讲笑话。在课程的最后一天，高年级学生将学生聚集在Sycamore附近，在那里，低年级学生将获得大学徽章，高年级学生将获得玫瑰)”可知，Moving Up Day在两个不同的日子庆祝。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Symbolized by a candle flame, the spirit of the Wells connection is passed from alumni (校友) to students, signifying that Wells students give one another throughout their lives.(以蜡烛火焰为象征，威尔斯大学的精神从校友传递给学生，象征着威尔斯大学的学生一生都在互相奉献)”可知，CONVOCATION将威尔斯学院的所有学生联系在一起。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“During the morning of the last day of classes, after singing around the Sycamore tree, the senior class takes turns kissing the feet of Minerva, believing she will bring success and prosperity to all graduating seniors.(在课程最后一天的早晨，在梧桐树周围唱歌后，高年级学生轮流亲吻Minerva的脚，相信她会给所有即将毕业的高年级学生带来成功和繁荣)”可知，Minerva被认为能带来好运。故选B。 B Losing an eye might be an unthinkable thing, especially for a young woman, but not for Xintong. She chose to become an ocularist (义眼师) who makes prosthetic eyes (义眼) for herself and people in the same situation to help them get back their confidence. Xintong is the name that she gave to herself – which she prefers people to call her instead of her real name – because “xintong” in Chinese sounds like “new pupils”. Nearly 10 years after losing her right eye in a car accident, 28-year-old Xintong from Beijing transformed the hollow of her eye socket – a “flaw” she used to hide – into a fashion statement. She shared a short video online in which she wears a glowing prosthetic eye. As she waves her hand, the prosthetic eye begins to shine with red light. With another wave, the light changes to green and then purple and white. The video soon went viral on social media, with many comments praising her for being “creative”, “beautiful” and “optimistic”. But that wasn’t the case 10 years ago. “The prosthetic eye I wore at that time was torturing me,” Xintong said. “It hurt and gave me a red and swollen eye socket, and it looked so dull and fake. I was young and I wanted to look attractive.” She took matters into her own hands and began researching prosthetic eyes. Beginning in 2019, she dedicated about two years to mastering the production techniques and skills under the guidance of an ocularist. This journey led her to establish her own prosthetic eye studio, providing personalized services for those requiring them. She produces prosthetic eyes as if she is creating pieces of artwork. “The position, direction, and even stroke thickness of the blood streaks on the prosthetic eyeballs matter,” the ocularist said. Sometimes she also paints special patterns according to customers’ needs: twinkling stars, cartoon characters like Cardcaptor Sakura and effects like colored contact lenses. Now when Xintong hears her customers say words such as “Finally, I can accept myself” or “Now I feel free to take selfies”, she feels deeply moved. 24. Why did Xintong give the name “Xintong” to herself? A. To attract more people. B. To forget her real name. C. To look like new pupils. D. To start a brand new life. 25. Why did the video gain much popularity on social media? A. The prosthetic eyes had various colors. B. She cured her hollow by waving her hand. C. Many comments praised her for her beauty. D. She changed a “flaw” into a fashionable state. 26. What can we learn about Xintong from paragraph 5? A. She failed to set up her own prosthetic eye studio. B. She began researching prosthetic eyes on her own. C. She was able to offer some specific services on prosthetic eyes. D. She paid no attention to grasping the production techniques and skills. 27. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Xintong is a woman with determination and creativity. B. Becoming an ocularist helped Xintong gain much profit. C. Xintong lost all her hopes in her life after the car accident. D. Many customers are deeply moved by Xintong’s artworks. 【答案】24. D 25. D 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了义眼师昕瞳的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Xintong is the name that she gave to herself – which she prefers people to call her instead of her real name – because “xintong” in Chinese sounds like “new pupils”. (昕瞳是她给自己取的名字，她更喜欢别人叫她昕瞳，而不是她的真名，因为“昕瞳”在中文里听起来像“新学生”。)”可知，她给自己取这个名字是因为她希望开始全新的生活。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“The video soon went viral on social media, with many comments praising her for being “creative”, “beautiful” and “optimistic”. (这段视频很快在社交媒体上疯传，许多评论称赞她“有创意”、“美丽”、“乐观”。)”可知，这段视频在社交媒体上大受欢迎，是因为她把一个“缺点”变成了时髦的状态。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第五段中“She took matters into her own hands and began researching prosthetic eyes. Beginning in 2019, she dedicated about two years to mastering the production techniques and skills under the guidance of an ocularist. This journey led her to establish her own prosthetic eye studio, providing personalized services for those requiring them. (她自己动手，开始研究假眼。从2019年开始，她花了大约两年的时间在眼科医生的指导下掌握制作技术和技能。这段旅程让她建立了自己的假眼工作室，为有需要的人提供个性化的服务。)”可知，她能够提供一些关于假眼的特殊服务。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Losing an eye might be an unthinkable thing, especially for a young woman, but not for Xintong. She chose to become an ocularist (义眼师) who makes prosthetic eyes (义眼) for herself and people in the same situation to help them get back their confidence. (失去一只眼睛可能是一件难以想象的事情，尤其是对一个年轻女子来说，但对欣彤来说却不是。她选择成为一名眼科医生，为自己和有同样情况的人制作假眼，帮助他们重拾信心。)”和倒数第二段中“She produces prosthetic eyes as if she is creating pieces of artwork. “The position, direction, and even stroke thickness of the blood streaks on the prosthetic eyeballs matter,” the ocularist said. Sometimes she also paints special patterns according to customers’ needs: twinkling stars, cartoon characters like Cardcaptor Sakura and effects like colored contact lenses. (她制作假眼就像在创作艺术品一样。眼科医生说:“假眼球上血痕的位置、方向，甚至笔画的厚度都很重要。”有时，她还会根据顾客的需求画一些特殊的图案：闪烁的星星、卡通人物，如Cardcaptor Sakura，以及彩色隐形眼镜等效果。)”可知，昕瞳是一个有决心和创造力的女人。故选A。 C You constantly find yourself apologizing to a friend when you've done nothing wrong. You feel you must obey someone's demands, fearing that he/she will reveal a secret or weakness. Or perhaps a relative is trying to make you feel obliged to do something by saying, “That's what friends or family do for each other.” They arouse feelings of guilt in you for not meeting their needs. If you have had experiences with any of these cases. then you are the victim of emotional blackmail(勒索). This style of handle controls you through your emotions. Fear, obligation and guilt----FOG----arc used by an emotional blackmailer to get what they want from people. Anyone----a friend, colleague, parent, partner or other family members----could be that person. Their demands are intended to control their victim's behavior in unhealthy methods. Dr. Susan Forward identifies six stages in emotional blackmail. Implied or obvious demands come first. “l don't think you should do things with that person. They're not good for you.” After this kind of statement is stage two: Resistance. The victim often avoids the blackmailer or suggests alternatives instead of saying no. Stage three is persistent pressure by the blackmailer: “If we were really friends, you'd do it.” Stage four involves threats: “If you don't do this...then I will...” The victim doesn't want the blackmailer to make good on their threats, so obedience(顺从), which is stage five, often leaves the victim feeling guilty or resentful. In stage six the blackmailer backs off until the next demand. What can you do? First, recognize if you are being pressured, threatened or controlled. Stay calm, so you can consider other possibilities. Identify your triggers; don't be pressured into an immediate response. Offer a compromise. Tell the blackmailer how you feel, and give them a chance to acknowledge their behavior and change. If they won't, walk away from the relationship. Under no circumstances should you let your fears be used against you. 28. What is called emotional blackmail? A. Having experiences of fear, obligation and guilt. B. Reaching goals through emotional controls over others. C. Enriching one's emotions like fear, obligation and guilt. D. Getting whatever one wants without any emotional changes. 29. Which of the following can be the second stage of blackmail? A. The victim felt scared to be threatened and asked others for help. B. The victim announced, “I would not do as you ordered anymore!” C. The victim said, “How about treating you to a big meal instead?” D. The victim decided to have a face-to-face talk with the blackmailer. 30. What does the underlined word “resentful” in the last paragraph but one mean? A. Angry. B. Frightened. C. Indifferent. D. Amazed. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The risks of emotionally blackmailing others. B. The steps of avoiding being emotionally blackmailed. C. The suggestions on punishing an emotional blackmailer. D. The ways to prevent oneself emotionally blackmailing others. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了情感勒索及其过程,最后提出面对情感勒索应该怎么做。 【28题详解】 根据第二段“If you have had experiences with any of these cases, then you are the victim of emotional blackmail(勒索). This style of handle controls you through your emotions. Fear, obligation and guilt—FOG—are used by an emotional blackmailer to get what they want from people."可知, emotional blackmail 是指第一段描述的那些情形。这种行为是通过如害怕.责任感和内疚之类的情感来控制他人,以从他人身上得到自己想要的东西。故选B。 【29题详解】 根据第四段中的“After this kind of statement is stage two: Resistance. The victim often avoids the blackmailer or suggests alternatives instead of saying no."可知, 第二阶段是反抗。受害者在此阶段一般会避免与情感勒索者碰面或者他们会提出其他的方案而不是直接拒绝。故选C。 【30题详解】 根据画线词前“The victim doesn’t want the blackmailer to make good on their threats so obedience(顺从), which is stage five, often leaves the victim feeling guilty or.."可知, 受害者不希望勒索者兑现他们的威胁, 所以服从, 而服从会让人感觉guilty(内疚的)或者愤愤不平的。这道题的关键是理清句子结构。故选A。 【31题详解】 根据主题句“What can you do?”以及本段内容*First, recognize if you are being pressured, threatened or controlled. Stay calm, so you can consider other possibilities. Identify your triggers; don’t be pressured into an immediate response. Offer a compromise. Tell the blackmailer how you feel, and give them a chance to acknowledge their behavior and change. If they won’t, walk away from the relationship. Under no circumstances should you let your fears be used against you.”可知,这是作者提出的避免被情感勒索的具体步骤。故选B。 D A global study comparing 2,062 birds finds that in highly variable environments birds tend to have either larger or smaller brains relative to their body size, but birds with smaller brains tend to use ecological strategies that are not available to big-brained ones. The fact is that there are a great many species that do quite well with small brains. Previous studies had found general trends toward larger relative brain sizes at higher latitudes (纬度) where conditions are more variable. This new study is different because it looks at the full distribution of brain sizes across environments, allowing the researchers to test whether different sizes are over-or under-represented. They found that at higher latitudes, some bird brains are significantly more likely to be relatively smaller compared to body size. “In Alaska, the ptarmigan (雷鸟) might be a typical example of the small-brained species. Lovable though it is, it’s not exactly known for its smarts. The ptarmigan can, however, feed on branches and willow leaves.” said Trevor Fristoe, first author of the study from Washington University. “We find that small-brained species in these environments employ strategies that are unachievable with a large brain. These species are able to live on readily available but difficult to digest resources such as needles of conifers (针叶树) or even branches. These foods can be found even during extreme winter conditions, but they are fibrous and require a large gut (肠道) to digest,”Fristoe said. “Gut tissue, like brain tissue, is energetically demanding, and limited budgets mean that it is challenging to maintain a lot of both.” “Brains are not evolving separately — they are part of a broader suite of adaptation s that help creatures succeed in their lives,” said Carlos Botero, assistant professor of biology and co- author of the study.“ Biologists, ourselves included, have historically believed that environmental variability drives the expansion of brain size. But when we take a broader view, we realize that other strategies also work and remarkably, the alternative here involves making a brain actually smaller!” 32．How does Fristoe’s research differ from previous studies? A．It reveals birds’ evolving processes. B．It arrives at a conflicting conclusion. C．It focuses on birds with smaller brains. D．It covers a wider range of brain sizes. 33．What do we know about the ptarmigan? A．It has a changeable feeding habit. B．It is considered fairly intelligent. C．It has an extremely large body size. D．It has a powerful digesting system. 34．What does Botero think of smaller brains? A．They are a result of limited budgets. B．They are an effective survival strategy. C．They are not for variable environments. D．They are typical of independent evolution. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Big Brains or Big Guts. Choose One B．Evolution of Brain Size in Birds C．Big Brains: Adapt to Higher Latitudes D．The Smaller the Brain, the Smarter the Bird 32．D 33．C 34．A 35．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于鸟类大脑大小和智慧之间关系的研究，列举了研究人员对研究结果的看法。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This new study is different because it looks at the full distribution of brain sizes across environments, allowing the researchers to test whether different sizes are over-or under-represented.(这项新研究的不同之处在于，它观察了不同环境下大脑大小的完整分布，使研究人员能够测试不同大小的大脑是被过度代表还是被低估了)”可知，弗里斯托的研究涵盖了更大范围的大脑大小。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They found that at higher latitudes, some bird brains are significantly more likely to be relatively smaller compared to body size.(他们发现，在高纬度地区，一些鸟类的大脑相对于身体来说更有可能相对较小)”以及第三段“In Alaska, the ptarmigan (雷鸟) might be a typical example of the small-brained species.(在阿拉斯加，雷鸟可能是小脑袋物种的典型例子)”可推知，雷鸟的体型非常大。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But when we take a broader view, we realize that other strategies also work and remarkably, the alternative here involves making a brain actually smaller!(但当我们从更广阔的角度来看，我们意识到其他策略也起作用，值得注意的是，这里的替代方案涉及到让大脑变得更小！)”可知，波特罗认为小脑袋是预算有限的结果。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A global study comparing 2,062 birds finds that in highly variable environments birds tend to have either larger or smaller brains relative to their body size, but birds with smaller brains tend to use ecological strategies that are not available to big-brained ones. The fact is that there are a great many species that do quite well with small brains.(一项对2062只鸟类进行比较的全球研究发现，在高度多变的环境中，鸟类的大脑相对于它们的身体大小往往更大或更小，但大脑较小的鸟类往往会使用大脑大的鸟类无法使用的生态策略。事实上，有很多物种的大脑都很小)”结合文章主要介绍了关于鸟类大脑大小和智慧之间关系的研究，列举了研究人员对研究结果的看法。可知，A选项“脑大还是智慧大。选择一个”最符合文章标题。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。 Shame has been called our “most dreaded emotional experience.” We know the feeling only too we: Our pulse quickens. ____36____ The feeling is so bad that we want to escape at all costs. Here are some things you need to know about shame and some tips for how to feel less of it. Shame and guilt are different emotions. You feel guilty when you think you’ve done something wrong, but you feel shame when you believe that you are wrong. While guilt arises when you have made a mistake and can fix it, shame develops when you see yourself as the mistake.____37____ Shame has warning signs. There are many signs that you are experiencing shame.____38____And when someone brings up something you feel ashamed about, you may look down and avoid eye contact and talk in a soft voice. ____39____ Shame can lead to high blood pressure, stomach problems, insomnia, alcohol or drugs addiction, and eating disorders. One study determined that external shame— the fear that others are judging us negatively— is associated with anorexia, while internal shame— our negative self- evaluation and self-generated criticism— is associated with bulimia. There is a cure for shame. When you have a caring person to share your shameful and otherwise painful stories with, you will be able to fully express yourself and finally release the old, stored, toxic feelings that have been weighing you down.____40____ At the same time, you will stop seeing yourself as bad or wrong.

Free of those, you can shift your beliefs about yourself. F. The critic inside your head tells you that you are a bad, worthless person. G. You avoid being the center of attention and wish you could shrink into the walls. 【答案】36. A 37. F 38. G 39. C 40. E 【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了羞耻感的不同方面以及如何减少羞耻感的建议。 【36题详解】 上文“our pulse quickens(我们的脉搏加快)”说明羞耻感会导致脉搏加速，引起生理反应。A项“Our faces flush.(我们的脸红了。)”与上文呼应，都是身体对羞耻感反应的描述，符合语境。故选A项。 【37题详解】 F选项“The critic inside your head tells you that you are a bad, worthless person.(你内心的批评者告诉你，你是一个坏人，一个一无是处的人。)”解释了羞耻感与内疚感的不同之处，即羞耻感会让你觉得自己本身就是个错误，而不是仅仅做错了某件事。这与前文的“shame develops when you see yourself as the mistake(当你把自己看作是错误本身时，羞耻感就会产生。)”相呼应。故选F项。 【38题详解】 G选项“You avoid being the center of attention and wish you could shrink into the walls.(你避免成为众人瞩目的焦点，希望自己能缩进墙里。)”是羞耻感的一个明显表现，即想要逃避他人的注意，与前文的“There are many signs that you are experiencing shame.(有很多迹象表明你正在经历羞耻感。)”相呼应。故选G项。 【39题详解】 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“Shame can lead to high blood pressure, stomach problems, insomnia, alcohol or drugs addiction, and eating disorders(羞耻感会导致高血压、胃病、失眠、酗酒或吸毒以及饮食失调)”可知，该段详细描述了羞耻感对身体健康的负面影响，如高血压、胃病、失眠、酗酒或吸毒、饮食失调等。C项“Shame can harm your physical health.(羞耻感会损害你的身体健康。)”符合语境。故选C项。 【40题详解】 E选项“Free of those, you can shift your beliefs about yourself.(摆脱那些（羞耻感），你可以改变对自己的看法。)”与前文的“you will be able to fully express yourself and finally release the old, stored, toxic feelings that have been weighing you down.(你将能够完全地表达自己，并最终释放那些一直在拖累你的旧的、压抑的、有毒的情感。)”相呼应，表示通过表达和释放羞耻感，你可以改变自己的自我认知，从而减轻羞耻感对自己的影响。故选E项。 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） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I dropped a clay cooking pot on my feet.

Most folks find there’s nothing there, just an empty lot. But to me, it’s like a wide-open treasure box. Stepping into it, I feel like leaping into a sea of green. The tall grass, probably just weeds, with butterflies gathering around, smells clean and fresh, and I wonder why I’m the only one who’s thankful for this place. One evening, Mama said, “Tia, the city wants to turn that comer of yours into a parking lot.” I stopped in my tracks. “No! They can’t do that!” “Tia, you have to make them see what you see. Make some noise about it. No one ever got any place by sitting back and staying quiet.” That night, I lay awake thinking for a long time. “I’ve got to do something.” Early the next morning I dragged a chair down to the corner with a big cardboard on which I’d painted “No Parking Lot! Save Our Nature” in large letters. I sat down and waited. Most people passed by, paying no attention to me. My friend Tanya asked me what I was doing, and I told her. Then came Mrs. DiRisio, a beauty shop owner, who angrily waved her hand at my sign, saying. “My customers need a place to park. You go home, little girl.” But I didn’t move. Then I noticed a woman down the street taking pictures of my corner. She walked over to me, smiling, “I’m Sara Bennett. Can I talk to you?” I nodded. I knew I needed to make some noise. I started talking, and Ms. Bennett scribbled on a notepad. “A walking path would be nice, maybe a vegetable garden. And a bench, so people could sit down and listen to the birds singing.” I was surprised at myself, at how many ideas I’d got for this corner. The next morning, my brother burst into my room with a morning paper. “Fighting for Nature on the Corner of 71st” was the title of the article, and along with it was a picture of me! After breakfast my brother, Mama and I dragged our chairs and signs back to the corner. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: To my amazement, I saw some familiar figures coming towards us. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A year later, the sign on the corner made it official. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: To my amazement, I saw some familiar figures coming towards us. My friend Tanya and her family, each carrying a chair, joined us! “Tia, you’ve got some good ideas for this corner. We need a little nature around here.” More and more neighbors showed up, waving signs and making noise, including Mrs. DiRisio. Mom inspired me to make a speech to the city call. I did so days later. “If this is the last little bit of nature in our neighborhood,” I spoke, “doesn’t it make sense to try and save it?” Everyone applauded at the end of my speech. A year later, the sign on the corner has made it official. Now we’ve got a walking path that curves and winds its way through the 71st Street Nature Preserve. We’ve got a stone bench and plans for a vegetable garden. School groups come here to collect leaves and study the insects and birds. Folks come here to walk, run or just sit, talking, laughing and listening to birds singing. My corner isn’t just mine anymore, but I’m more than happy to share it. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了71号街道的拐角可以让蒂亚感受到自然的美，但是有人想要将这个街角改造成停车场。在妈妈的建议下，蒂亚采取行动，在大纸板写明自己的观点，放在街角处。内内特女士给蒂亚拍了照片，并对这个街角的设计进行了设想。第二天早上，蒂亚的照片出现在报纸上，早餐后，蒂亚和家人将椅子和大纸板拖回街角。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“令我惊讶的是，我看到一些熟悉的身影向我们走来。”可知，第一段可描写越来越多的邻居出现，发声自己需要自然，蒂亚发表演讲，尝试拯救自然，得到了大家的掌声。 ②由第二段首句内容“一年后，街角的标志正式生效。”可知，第二段可描写街角的具体样子，人们可以在这里享受自然。 2.续写线索：邻居加入——蒂亚发表演讲——得到掌声——街角标志生效——街角的样子——人们在街角享受自然 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①出现：show up/appear ②激励：inspire/encourage/motivate ③鼓掌：applaud/clap one’s hands 情绪类 ①笑：laugh/beam/grin ②开心的：happy/pleased/glad 【点睛】【高分句型1】“If this is the last little bit of nature in our neighborhood,” I spoke, ”doesn’t it make sense to try and save it? ”（运用了if引导条件状语从句） 【高分句型2】Now we’ve got a walking path that curves and winds its way through the 71st Street Nature Preserve.（运用了that引导限制性定语从句） 19 / 26 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025年1月“八省联考”考后提升卷 高三英语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 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小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

They connect us with each other, providing a sense of timelessness and continuity. The experiences and memories that make up these traditions make us all a part of a special community-and they’re really fun! Some of the most long-standing traditions include the following: MOVING UP DAY Each spring the senior class promotes students to the next class year. This all-student occasion is organized by the senior class. This tradition has recently been split in two with a Senior Roast happening on the Thursday before the last day of classes. At this event, seniors sing songs and tell jokes. On the last day of classes, seniors gather students around the Sycamore where juniors are given college pins and seniors are given roses. CONVOCATION Opening Convocation celebrates the beginning of the academic year and the formal introduction of the new incoming class. A traditional part of this convocation is the candlelight ceremony. Symbolized by a candle flame, the spirit of the Wells connection is passed from alumni (校友) to students, signifying that Wells students give one another throughout their lives. TEA TIME Tea and coffee are served every Wednesday afternoon. Though the long dresses and china cups are gone, this break from afternoon classes is still a great time to get together with friends and professors. MINERVA Outside of Main, the College’s first building, sits the lovely statue of the Roman goddess Minerva, symbolizing wisdom and invention. The senior class decorates Minerva at the beginning of the school year, and Minerva remains decorated throughout the year. During the morning of the last day of classes, after singing around the Sycamore tree, the senior class takes turns kissing the feet of Minerva, believing she will bring success and prosperity to all graduating seniors. 21. What do we know about Moving Up Day? A. It is organized annually by juniors. B. It is held to reward excellent seniors. C. It is celebrated on two separate days. D. It is celebrated in two different colleges. 22. Which tradition connects all generations of Wells College students? A. MOVING UP DAY. B. CONVOCATION. C. TEA TIME. D. MINERVA. 23. Which of the following is believed to bring good luck? A. Senior Roast. B. Minerva. C. Tea and coffee. D. The candlelight. B Losing an eye might be an unthinkable thing, especially for a young woman, but not for Xintong. She chose to become an ocularist (义眼师) who makes prosthetic eyes (义眼) for herself and people in the same situation to help them get back their confidence. Xintong is the name that she gave to herself – which she prefers people to call her instead of her real name – because “xintong” in Chinese sounds like “new pupils”. Nearly 10 years after losing her right eye in a car accident, 28-year-old Xintong from Beijing transformed the hollow of her eye socket – a “flaw” she used to hide – into a fashion statement. She shared a short video online in which she wears a glowing prosthetic eye. As she waves her hand, the prosthetic eye begins to shine with red light. With another wave, the light changes to green and then purple and white. The video soon went viral on social media, with many comments praising her for being “creative”, “beautiful” and “optimistic”. But that wasn’t the case 10 years ago. “The prosthetic eye I wore at that time was torturing me,” Xintong said. “It hurt and gave me a red and swollen eye socket, and it looked so dull and fake. I was young and I wanted to look attractive.” She took matters into her own hands and began researching prosthetic eyes. Beginning in 2019, she dedicated about two years to mastering the production techniques and skills under the guidance of an ocularist. This journey led her to establish her own prosthetic eye studio, providing personalized services for those requiring them. She produces prosthetic eyes as if she is creating pieces of artwork. “The position, direction, and even stroke thickness of the blood streaks on the prosthetic eyeballs matter,” the ocularist said. Sometimes she also paints special patterns according to customers’ needs: twinkling stars, cartoon characters like Cardcaptor Sakura and effects like colored contact lenses. Now when Xintong hears her customers say words such as “Finally, I can accept myself” or “Now I feel free to take selfies”, she feels deeply moved. 24. Why did Xintong give the name “Xintong” to herself? A. To attract more people. B. To forget her real name. C. To look like new pupils. D. To start a brand new life. 25. Why did the video gain much popularity on social media? A. The prosthetic eyes had various colors. B. She cured her hollow by waving her hand. C. Many comments praised her for her beauty. D. She changed a “flaw” into a fashionable state. 26. What can we learn about Xintong from paragraph 5? A. She failed to set up her own prosthetic eye studio. B. She began researching prosthetic eyes on her own. C. She was able to offer some specific services on prosthetic eyes. D. She paid no attention to grasping the production techniques and skills. 27. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Xintong is a woman with determination and creativity. B. Becoming an ocularist helped Xintong gain much profit. C. Xintong lost all her hopes in her life after the car accident. D. Many customers are deeply moved by Xintong’s artworks. C You constantly find yourself apologizing to a friend when you've done nothing wrong. You feel you must obey someone's demands, fearing that he/she will reveal a secret or weakness. Or perhaps a relative is trying to make you feel obliged to do something by saying, “That's what friends or family do for each other.” They arouse feelings of guilt in you for not meeting their needs. If you have had experiences with any of these cases. then you are the victim of emotional blackmail(勒索). This style of handle controls you through your emotions. Fear, obligation and guilt----FOG----arc used by an emotional blackmailer to get what they want from people. Anyone----a friend, colleague, parent, partner or other family members----could be that person. Their demands are intended to control their victim's behavior in unhealthy methods. Dr. Susan Forward identifies six stages in emotional blackmail. Implied or obvious demands come first. “l don't think you should do things with that person. They're not good for you.” After this kind of statement is stage two: Resistance. The victim often avoids the blackmailer or suggests alternatives instead of saying no. Stage three is persistent pressure by the blackmailer: “If we were really friends, you'd do it.” Stage four involves threats: “If you don't do this...then I will...” The victim doesn't want the blackmailer to make good on their threats, so obedience(顺从), which is stage five, often leaves the victim feeling guilty or resentful. In stage six the blackmailer backs off until the next demand. What can you do? First, recognize if you are being pressured, threatened or controlled. Stay calm, so you can consider other possibilities. Identify your triggers; don't be pressured into an immediate response. Offer a compromise. Tell the blackmailer how you feel, and give them a chance to acknowledge their behavior and change. If they won't, walk away from the relationship. Under no circumstances should you let your fears be used against you. 28. What is called emotional blackmail? A. Having experiences of fear, obligation and guilt. B. Reaching goals through emotional controls over others. C. Enriching one's emotions like fear, obligation and guilt. D. Getting whatever one wants without any emotional changes. 29. Which of the following can be the second stage of blackmail? A. The victim felt scared to be threatened and asked others for help. B. The victim announced, “I would not do as you ordered anymore!” C. The victim said, “How about treating you to a big meal instead?” D. The victim decided to have a face-to-face talk with the blackmailer. 30. What does the underlined word “resentful” in the last paragraph but one mean? A. Angry. B. Frightened. C. Indifferent. D. Amazed. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The risks of emotionally blackmailing others. B. The steps of avoiding being emotionally blackmailed. C. The suggestions on punishing an emotional blackmailer. D. The ways to prevent oneself emotionally blackmailing others. D A global study comparing 2,062 birds finds that in highly variable environments birds tend to have either larger or smaller brains relative to their body size, but birds with smaller brains tend to use ecological strategies that are not available to big-brained ones. The fact is that there are a great many species that do quite well with small brains. Previous studies had found general trends toward larger relative brain sizes at higher latitudes (纬度) where conditions are more variable. This new study is different because it looks at the full distribution of brain sizes across environments, allowing the researchers to test whether different sizes are over-or under-represented. They found that at higher latitudes, some bird brains are significantly more likely to be relatively smaller compared to body size. “In Alaska, the ptarmigan (雷鸟) might be a typical example of the small-brained species. Lovable though it is, it’s not exactly known for its smarts. The ptarmigan can, however, feed on branches and willow leaves.” said Trevor Fristoe, first author of the study from Washington University. “We find that small-brained species in these environments employ strategies that are unachievable with a large brain. These species are able to live on readily available but difficult to digest resources such as needles of conifers (针叶树) or even branches. These foods can be found even during extreme winter conditions, but they are fibrous and require a large gut (肠道) to digest,”Fristoe said. “Gut tissue, like brain tissue, is energetically demanding, and limited budgets mean that it is challenging to maintain a lot of both.” “Brains are not evolving separately — they are part of a broader suite of adaptation s that help creatures succeed in their lives,” said Carlos Botero, assistant professor of biology and co- author of the study.“ Biologists, ourselves included, have historically believed that environmental variability drives the expansion of brain size. But when we take a broader view, we realize that other strategies also work and remarkably, the alternative here involves making a brain actually smaller!” 32．How does Fristoe’s research differ from previous studies? A．It reveals birds’ evolving processes. B．It arrives at a conflicting conclusion. C．It focuses on birds with smaller brains. D．It covers a wider range of brain sizes. 33．What do we know about the ptarmigan? A．It has a changeable feeding habit. B．It is considered fairly intelligent. C．It has an extremely large body size. D．It has a powerful digesting system. 34．What does Botero think of smaller brains? A．They are a result of limited budgets. B．They are an effective survival strategy. C．They are not for variable environments. D．They are typical of independent evolution. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Big Brains or Big Guts. Choose One B．Evolution of Brain Size in Birds C．Big Brains: Adapt to Higher Latitudes D．The Smaller the Brain, the Smarter the Bird 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。 Shame has been called our “most dreaded emotional experience.” We know the feeling only too we: Our pulse quickens. ____36____ The feeling is so bad that we want to escape at all costs.

It’s my corner. Most folks find there’s nothing there, just an empty lot. But to me, it’s like a wide-open treasure box. Stepping into it, I feel like leaping into a sea of green. The tall grass, probably just weeds, with butterflies gathering around, smells clean and fresh, and I wonder why I’m the only one who’s thankful for this place. One evening, Mama said, “Tia, the city wants to turn that comer of yours into a parking lot.” I stopped in my tracks. “No! They can’t do that!” “Tia, you have to make them see what you see. Make some noise about it. No one ever got any place by sitting back and staying quiet.” That night, I lay awake thinking for a long time. “I’ve got to do something.” Early the next morning I dragged a chair down to the corner with a big cardboard on which I’d painted “No Parking Lot! Save Our Nature” in large letters. I sat down and waited. Most people passed by, paying no attention to me. My friend Tanya asked me what I was doing, and I told her. Then came Mrs. DiRisio, a beauty shop owner, who angrily waved her hand at my sign, saying. “My customers need a place to park. You go home, little girl.” But I didn’t move. Then I noticed a woman down the street taking pictures of my corner. She walked over to me, smiling, “I’m Sara Bennett. Can I talk to you?” I nodded. I knew I needed to make some noise. I started talking, and Ms. Bennett scribbled on a notepad. “A walking path would be nice, maybe a vegetable garden. And a bench, so people could sit down and listen to the birds singing.” I was surprised at myself, at how many ideas I’d got for this corner. The next morning, my brother burst into my room with a morning paper. “Fighting for Nature on the Corner of 71st” was the title of the article, and along with it was a picture of me! After breakfast my brother, Mama and I dragged our chairs and signs back to the corner. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: To my amazement, I saw some familiar figures coming towards us. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A year later, the sign on the corner made it official. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 5 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
