Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs who aged out of school programs to develop social and vocational skills in a nurturing (关爱的) environment. Maureen Stanko was concerned about her son Nick, who is neurodivergent and on the autism spectrum (孤独症谱系), and what he would be able to do after graduation. In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about the day after is what was keeping Stanko up at night. Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who told her that Nick dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together — in association with the Pillars of Love and Light Charity — to make this a reality. Two years later, the So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe was born. The inclusive cafe has brought about positive changes to many people’s lives. One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, is hearing-impaired and works as a hostess at the cafe and as a sign- language instructor. She said, “If you would tell me two years ago that I would be a hostess, I wouldn’t believe you. I have grown so self-confident. I’ve known many employees since the very beginning. The growth in them is just mind-blowing.” But the cafe is much more than just a workplace. Stanko also wanted to create a space to teach life skills to people with disabilities. That’s why she also opened the Inspiration Studio where music, crafts, and other courses are taught in addition to life skills. The studio is located across the street from the cafe. 24. What once kept Maureen Stanko up at night? A. Her son’s restaurant. B. Her son’s social projects. C. Her son’s school performance. D. Her son’s life after graduation. 25. Why did Nick dream of opening a restaurant? A. To spread the school programs. B. To promote sign languages among locals. C To provide free food for those in need. D. To offer a workplace for youth with special needs. 26. What does Lauren Oppelts think of the employees’ growth in the cafe? A. Awesome. B. Mild. C. Complicated. D. Ordinary. 27. What is the function of the Inspiration Studio? A. Adding dining space for the cafe. B. Serving as a therapy center with music. C. Offering vocational treatment regularly. D. Teaching music and crafts along with life skills. C Informational social influence refers to the phenomenon where individuals conform to the opinions or behaviors of others because they believe the others possess accurate knowledge or information. It’s like when you’re at a restaurant and you see everyone around you ordering the same dish. Suddenly, you start to question your own choice and wonder if you should follow suit. That’s the power of informational social influence in action! Let’s see it online. In today’s digital age, online reviews play a significant role in shaping consumer decisions. When we are unsure about a product or service, we often turn to online platforms to read reviews and gather information from others who have already tried it. This reliance on the experiences and opinions of others exemplifies (例证) informational social influence. For example, imagine you are looking to book a hotel for your upcoming vacation. You come across two options: one with numerous positive reviews and another with mixed reviews. The presence of those positive reviews can sway your decision, as they provide social proof and reinforce the idea that others have had a positive experience with that particular hotel. In this case, the informational social influence of online reviews can heavily impact your final choice. Social media influencers have become a dominant force in the digital landscape, particularly among younger people. These individuals have piled up large followings and have the ability to influence their audience’s opinions and behaviors. From fashion and beauty to fitness and lifestyle, influencers can change their followers’ choices through informational social influence. For instance, a wellness influencer who promotes a plant-based diet may inspire their followers to adopt a similar eating pattern. The influencer’s shared experiences, knowledge, and recommendations act as a source of information that followers use to shape their own behaviors. This form of social influence can be especially powerful due to the reliability of influencers. 28. How do online reviews influence consumers? A. By offering them an access to complaints. B. By rating the quality of products objectively. C. By providing timely discounts on products. D. By sharing user experiences. 29. What does the underlined word “sway” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Criticize. B. Evaluate. C. Affect. D. Improve. 30. Why may followers adopt a wellness influencer’s recommended diet? A. The influencer’s information can be reliable. B. The diet is scientifically proven to be healthy. C. It’s hard for followers to distinguish the diet from others. D. It’s a tendency for followers to adopt influencers’ recommendations. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. Online informational social influence. B. The power of social media influencers. C. A new trend of online marketing strategy. D. The way of purchase during the digital age. D A pair of jeans found on an 1857 shipwreck (沉船) may be the oldest pair in the world. They were sold for $114,000. The newly discovered pair of old jeans is bringing a whole new meaning to classic jeans. Historians say the jeans, which were pulled from the 1857 shipwreck, are like no other in any known collection. The white miner’s trousers with five buttons were found together with many other artifacts (文物) on a ship that sank off the coast of North Carolina in the United States, more than 160 years ago. That ship sank in a hurricane on September 12,1857. Its passengers were travelling from San Francisco, California, to New York City. Most of them died, but some survived. The ship was found more than two kilometers below the ocean’s surface in 1988, where many artifacts and an estimated $100 million to $150 million in gold were found. Included in those artifacts were the jeans, which were found in a large, strong case. Historians determined the trousers came from the case of an Oregon man, John Dement. Although historians are unclear about where he would have obtained the jeans, they said they were still earlier than any other pair on record. Dwight Manley, managing partner of the California Gold Marketing Group, said the jeans represented a “historic moment”. “These are the only known Gold Rush jeans... not present in any collection in the world,” he said. The California Gold Rush took place between 1848 and 1855, when hundreds of thousands of people flooded into California after there was news of gold being found and the potential for more to be mined. Fred Holabird, a longtime historian and Gold Rush-era expert, said, “So far, no museum has come up with another.” The jeans were sold at an auction (拍卖). Hundreds of other artifacts from the shipwreck were also sold. They are a time capsule of life during the Gold Rush. 32. What can we learn about the pair of jeans? A. It was found near New York City. B. It was the strongest jeans ever found. C. It was unique with the longest history. D. It was white miner’s trousers without buttons. 33. Who was John Dement probably? A. A miner. B. A historian. C. A collector. D. A captain. 34. What does the time capsule in the last paragraph refer to? A. Mines dug in California. B. Events happening during the Gold Rush. C. Artifacts recording specific historical events. D. Ships sailing between California and New York City. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The most expensive jeans auctioned B. The gold rush unfolded in a treasure case C. A historic moment reserved in a time capsule D. Jeans among other treasures discovered in a shipwreck 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。 Since life is rarely plain sailing, being able to bounce back after setbacks is a crucial skill. Let’s look at some strategies you can use to help you reset your compass. Recognize that failure is a part of progress. ___36___ Then you’re feeling a bit mentally defeated and hurt. You need to change your mindset away from any feeling of failure and instead embrace what you’ve learnt from the mistake. Remind yourself regularly that virtually nothing worthwhile has ever been achieved without a number of false starts and setbacks. ___37___ Sometimes we’re faced with challenges that seem beyond our abilities. We look at a goal or dream and we struggle to imagine ourselves achieving it because it seems so far away. To avoid becoming discouraged, try not to think about the destination you want to reach and the effort required to get there. Instead, concentrate on the next step you have to take. Focus on the action that will move you a bit closer to the end goal, but don’t worry about how much closer it got you. ___38___ Look on the bright side. When you’re feeling discouraged you need to make a conscious choice to be positive and optimistic. Choosing the “the whole world’s against me” setting will only intensify the negative spiral you’re in. ___39___ At first you may need to put on an act, as if you’re kidding yourself and others around you. You may feel that the phrase “fake it till you make it” is overused, but it really can work. Try it. Let it go. Chances are that you’re burdened with quite a bit of anger over past mistakes you’ve made or injustices you’ve experienced. ___40___ And that will make it harder to be positive in the face of setbacks. You’re likely to feel overwhelmed and inadequate. You really do need to let these angry feelings go if you want to feel OK. A. Something didn’t go your way. B. Don’t compare yourself to others. C. Focus on the next step, not the destination. D. It can be hard to adopt a determinedly positive attitude. E. Slow progress in the right direction is better than no progress at all. F. Carrying all that negativity around with you will weigh you down. G. It is one basic key to shifting your mindset from negative to positive. 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。 The time to see some newly-hatched (孵化) baby eagles has almost arrived, and parents Jackie and Shadow are both passionately ___41___ to keeping their eggs warm.

Mrs Walker was known for her encouraging teaching style and her ability to inspire her students. Daniel was a diligent student but often doubted his abilities, especially in English class. He struggled with writing assignments and expressing his ideas, which made him feel anxious and less confident. Mrs Walker noticed Daniel’s struggle and his potential. She saw how he thoughtfully approached his work and the unique ideas he had. She began to spend extra time with him, guiding him through his writing assignments and giving him positive feedback. Despite Mrs Walker’s help, Daniel still felt unconfident. A major essay assignment was due, and Daniel felt it was impossible for him to do well. The pressure of the assignment made him consider giving up and accepting that he just wasn’t good enough. Mrs Walker noticed Daniel’s frustration and decided to have a talk with him. She shared her own experiences of struggle and how she overcame them. She told him, “Belief in yourself is the first step to success. You have so much to share, and your voice matters.” Inspired by Mrs Walker’s words and support, Daniel decided to give the essay his best shot. He worked on it, using the techniques and advice Mrs Walker had given him. He wrote about a topic he was passionate about, pouring his thoughts and feelings into the essay. When he submitted his essay, Daniel felt a sense of accomplishment, regardless of the outcome. He had pushed through his doubts and given it his all, which was a big step for him. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 When the essays were returned, Daniel was astonished to find he had received one of the highest marks in the class. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Daniel’s journey became a source of inspiration for his classmates. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高考模拟卷·英语 （120分钟 150分） 考生须知： 1. 本卷侧重：高考评价体系之综合性。 2. 本卷怎么考：①考查应对综合性素材的能力（阅读D）；②考查应对综合性设题的能力（题34、48、55）。 3. 本卷典型情境题：阅读C、D；语言运用第一节。 4. 本卷测试范围：高考全部内容。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 【1题答案】 【答案】A 【2题答案】 【答案】B 【3题答案】 【答案】A 【4题答案】 【答案】B 【5题答案】 【答案】C 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.
