An recognition of his exceptional achievement, this ninth-grad teenager is set to receive a cash award of $25,000. Bekele’s revolutionary concept, presented through a brief two-minute video, centers on the development of a soap that is not only affordable, priced at less than $10 per bar, but also has the potential to reactivate (重新激活) dendritic cells — the body’s natural defenders of the skin — to fight against skin cancer. In Bekele’s own words, “Curing cancer, one bar of soap at a time.” is passion for biology and technology was the driving force behind this ingenious creation, and the 3M Young Scientist Challenge provided him with the perfect platform to showcase his visionary ideas. Reflecting on his inspiration, Bekele shared that his childhood in Ethiopia played a significant role in shaping his creative thinking. Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the burning sun, he couldn’t help but wonder how many were aware of the risks associated with prolonged sun exposure. “I wanted to make my idea not only scientifically exceptional but also accessible to a broad audience,” Bekele expressed during an interview with The Washington Post. To aid him in realizing his big plans, he received invaluable guidance from Deborah Isabelle, a product engineering specialist at 3M,who connected him with other scientists. Eventually, the path forward for Bekele’s creation includes obtaining FDA approval. During his presentation at the 3M global headquarters in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Bekele passionately articulated his vision of turning the soap into a “symbol of hope, accessibility, and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach for all”. Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a non-profit organization dedicated to distributing his innovative creation to under-served communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer. 4. What does the underlined word “Nicole” mean in paragraph 1? A. Hero B. Winner. C. Example. D. Specialist. 5. How did Bekele get the idea of his invention? A. He was guided by relevant experts. B. He watched a video about science. C. He saw people work in the hot sun D. He dealt with scientists in the field. 6. Which of the following can best describe Bekele? A. Gifted and reliable B.

But, imagine a fashion magazine without a single picture in it. British Vogue, the UK’s well-known fashion magazine is making history by doing just that, making copies of the magazine available in pictureless Braille (盲文) and audio formats for blind and low vision folks. Selma Blair is best known for her acting career, but she’s also known as a disability advocate. British Vogue interviewed Blair about her struggles with multiple sclerosis (硬化症) in its May 2023 edition and the actress was also featured on the magazine’s cover. That wasn’t an accident, but rather a sign of the fashion magazine’s commitment to disability inclusion. Edward Enninful, the former editor-in-chief of the well-known magazine, announced the new format in an Instagram post that has since gotten more than 40,000 likes. “For the first time in the magazine’s history,” Enninful’s post reads, “I am pleased to share that the magazine is now available in Braille, for blind and partially sighted people. The Vogue team and I are delighted by the response to the May issue, but what the process of making it taught us is that what are most important are clear and lasting changes.” Vogue’s move towards greater accessibility mirrored Eninnful’s experiences and his values. “I’m partially blind and my hearing is less than 50 percent. It’s never stopped me, but there are so many people with invisible disabilities who never talk about it, because it might block them. We always talk about diversity and inclusivity, but that also has to extend to our disabled brothers and sisters,” he said. The move has been warmly praised by people with disabilities and disability advocates. Natalie Trevonne, a blend fashion designer and accessibility consultant, says that the new formats are a good start, but there’s still a lot more to do. She shares, “I just hope they will go beyond that and start including more blind and low vision folks in front of the camera and in more fashion brand campaigns.” 8. Which word can best describe British Vogue’s new copy? A. Creative. B. Profitable. C. Ordinary. D. Conventional. 9. Why did the magazine feature Selma Blair on its cover? A. To follow the fashion trend. B. To respect the disabled actress. C. To suit wider public requirement. D. To show the change of the magazine. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. What impact the move made. B. How the move became available. C How Eninnful supported the move. D. Why British Vogue decided on the change. 11. What is Natalie Trevonne’s attitude towards the move? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Negative. D. Indifferent. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是英国著名时尚杂志British Vogue推出无图片版，以盲文和音频格式提供给视障人士，体现了该杂志对残疾人包容性的承诺，并得到了残疾人士和残疾人权益倡导者的热烈赞扬。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“British Vogue, the UK’s well-known fashion magazine is making history by doing just that, making copies of the magazine available in pictureless Braille (盲文) and audio formats for blind and low vision folks.(英国著名时尚杂志Vogue正在创造历史，为盲人和弱视人士提供无图片盲文和音频版本的杂志)”可知，British Vogue的新版本是有创造性的，故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“That wasn’t an accident, but rather a sign of the fashion magazine’s commitment to disability inclusion.(这并非偶然，而是该时尚杂志致力于包容残疾人士的标志)”可知，这本杂志要把Selma Blair放在封面上是为了展示杂志的变化。故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Vogue ’s move towards greater accessibility mirrored Eninnful’s experiences and his values. “I’m partially blind and my hearing is less than 50 percent. It’s never stopped me, but there are so many people with invisible disabilities who never talk about it, because it might block them. We always talk about diversity and inclusivity, but that also has to extend to our disabled brothers and sisters,” he said.(Vogue朝着更平易近人的方向发展，反映了埃宁弗的经历和他的价值观。“我部分失明，听力不到50%。这从来没有阻止过我，但有很多有隐形残疾的人从不谈论它，因为这可能会阻碍他们。我们总是谈论多样性和包容性，但这也必须延伸到我们的残疾兄弟姐妹，”他说)”可知，第四段主要讲的是为什么英国版Vogue会做出这样的改变。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Natalie Trevonne, a blend fashion designer and accessibility consultant, says that the new formats are a good start, but there’s still a lot more to do.(Natalie Trevonne 是一位融合时尚设计师和无障碍环境顾问，她表示，新的形式是一个良好的开端，但仍有大量工作要做)”可知，Natalie Trevonne对这一举动持支持的态度，故选B。 D Most people in the Netherlands are convinced that their consumption patterns affect the environment. Many of them are looking for ways to reduce their footprint. However, the reality is more complicated, according to a research by Leiden PhD candidate Levon Amatuni, who studied car sharing and the reuse of phones. He used his background in computer science and mathematics to model and measure the benefits of such practices. His research shows users of car-sharing platforms reduce their impact by only 3 to 18 percent — much less than 51 or 37 percent claimed in previous research. This is caused by so-called “rebound effects”, which are rarely accounted for by companies or even researchers. For example, shared vehicles are replaced with new models more frequently than private cars. Additionally, the introduction of sharing schemes (方案) can encourage people to drive when they would have otherwise taken public transport. These rebound effects turn out to be highly influential. Amatuni also found users of sharing platforms don’t significantly reduce their driving. “And if they do, they often take buses and trains, which aren’t emission-free,” he says. While public transport is usually a better option, its impact is not negligible. So, this data must be included to make an accurate assessment. Similarly, Amatuni discovered that a second-hand phone only offsets (抵消) about one-third of a new phone’s production. Rebound effects are the cause. If people couldn’t sell their old devices, they would use them for longer. In other words, reuse both extends the lifetime of a device — by giving it a new owner — but also shortens it, as people tend to sell their newly bought devices sooner. Amatuni doesn’t want people to conclude taking small steps towards sustainability is pointless. “Our intentions are still what’s most important,” he says, “but meanwhile, people need to realise there’re no easy fixes.” He recommends prioritising overall consumption reduction rather than continuing current habits while trying to make them more efficient. 12. What is the focus of Amatuni’s research? A. The ways of reducing people’s footprint. B. The benefits of car sharing and phone reuse. C. The damage of public transport to the environment. D. The knowledge of computer science and mathematics. 13. What does the underlined word “negligible” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Small. B. Permanent. C. Direct. D. Immediate. 14. Which of the following represents a phone rebound effect? A. Buying new phones often. B. Keeping old phones in use. C. Taking care of new phones. D. Selling used phones cheaply. 15. What is Amatuni’s suggestion on promoting sustainability? A. Stop eco-friendly habits. B. Increase production efficiency. C. Reduce total resource use. D. Seek easy solutions to eco-crisis. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是莱顿大学博士生Levon Amatuni对汽车共享和手机再利用的研究，揭示了这些环保行为的实际效益远低于预期，并探讨了背后复杂的“反弹效应”及其对环境影响的真实情况。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“His research shows users of car-sharing platforms reduce their impact by only 3 to 18 percent—much less than 51 or 37 percent claimed in previous research. This is caused by so-called “rebound effects”, which are rarely accounted for by companies or even researchers.(他的研究表明，汽车共享平台的用户只减少了3%到18%的影响，远低于之前研究中声称的51%或37%。这是由所谓的“反弹效应”造成的，企业甚至研究人员都很少考虑到这一点。)”可知，Amatuni的研究重点是汽车共享和手机重复使用的好处。故选B。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“they often take buses and trains, which aren’t emission-free(他们经常乘坐公共汽车和火车，这些都不是零排放的)”和“this data must be included to make an accurate assessment(为了做出准确的评估，必须包括这些数据)”可知，公共交通的影响并不是微不足道的，negligible的意思是“微不足道的”，和small意思相近。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Similarly, Amatuni discovered that a second-hand phone only offsets (抵消) about one-third of a new phone’s production. Rebound effects are the cause. If people couldn’t sell their old devices, they would use them for longer.(同样，Amatuni发现，二手手机只抵消了新手机产量的三分之一左右。反弹效应是原因。如果人们不能卖掉他们的旧设备，他们就会使用更长时间。)”可知，经常买新手机代表了手机的反弹效应。故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“He recommends prioritising overall consumption reduction rather than continuing current habits while trying to make them more efficient.(他建议优先考虑整体减少消费，而不是继续目前的习惯，同时试图提高效率。)”可知，Amatuni对促进可持续发展的建议是减少总资源使用。故选C。 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。 An old study in the advertising literature found that we’re more likely to read advertisements for the products we have bought, even if they have proved to be “lemons”, or useless. This phenomenon also applies to our decision-making process. Humans sometimes make bad choices and stick with them despite negative consequences. ____16____ But in general bad choices have to do with acting out of emotion and not out of reason. Strong emotions can cloud our thinking and lead us down one rabbit hole after another. Doubling down on a bad choice may also relate to our self-esteem and the ability to admit mistakes. Narcissists(自恋者) usually won’t admit a mistake because it contradicts their self-image. But the fact is that many of us aren’t narcissistic. ____17____ Even when trapped in a bad relationship, we may still stick with it, hoping things will eventually change for the better. Resilience involves managing strong emotions and preventing them from fully dictating our decisions. Considering emotion is important, enthusiasm for something can move us forward, but it can also block our vision. ____18____ While relying solely on our “gut feeling” can be helpful, it works best when we use our head, integrating intuitive insights with logical thinking. Doubling down is generally unwise. We need to acknowledge our errors and be willing to say we’re sorry and apologize. ____19____ In fact, it’s smarter than denying mistakes. By admitting them, we learn valuable lessons and promote personal growth. Recognizing when to cut our losses is crucial, allowing us to pursue new opportunities with confidence. ____20____ A. And we often struggle with this. B. The reasons for that are complex. C. Make our decisions with full passion. D. There is nothing wrong with doing this. E. So stop trying to make lemonade from bad lemons. F. The more errors you make, the more you will learn. G. We should consider what’s right, not just what feels right. 【答案】16. B 17. A 18. G 19. D 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了人类会坚持糟糕选择这一现象展开论述，分析了其产生的原因，如受情绪影响、与自尊及承认错误的能力相关等，同时强调了韧性在于管理强烈情绪并结合理性思维做决策，指出加倍坚持糟糕选择是不明智的，应承认错误、及时止损，以促进个人成长并追求新机会。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Humans sometimes make bad choices and stick with them despite negative consequences. (人类有时会做出错误的选择，并且不顾负面后果坚持下去。)”及下文“But in general bad choices have to do with acting out of emotion and not out of reason. (但一般来说，糟糕的选择是出于情感而不是出于理性。)”可知，人类做出错误选择的原因并不是单一的，与B项“The reasons for that are complex. (原因很复杂。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Narcissists(自恋者) usually won’t admit a mistake because it contradicts their self-image. But the fact is that many of us aren’t narcissistic. (自恋者通常不会承认错误，因为这与他们的自我形象相矛盾。但事实是，我们中的许多人并不自恋。)”及下文“Even when trapped in a bad relationship, we may still stick with it, hoping things will eventually change for the better. (即使陷入一段糟糕的关系中，我们可能仍然坚持下去，希望事情最终会变得更好。)”可知，很多人在承认错误这件事上是有挣扎的，所以即使即使陷入一段糟糕的关系中，我们可能仍然坚持下去，与A项“And we often struggle with this. (我们经常为此而苦苦挣扎。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选A项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Considering emotion is important, enthusiasm for something can move us forward, but it can also block our vision. (考虑到情感很重要，对某事的热情可以推动我们前进，但它也会阻碍我们的视野。)”及下文“While relying solely on our “gut feeling” can be helpful, it works best when we use our head, integrating intuitive insights with logical thinking. (虽然仅仅依靠我们的“直觉”可能会有所帮助，但当我们使用我们的头脑，将直觉洞察力与逻辑思维相结合时，它的效果最好。)”可知，我们做决定不能只凭感觉对，还要考虑什么是正确的，与G项“We should consider what’s right, not just what feels right. (我们应该考虑什么是正确的，而不仅仅是感觉正确的。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Doubling down is generally unwise. We need to acknowledge our errors and be willing to say we’re sorry and apologize (加倍坚持通常是不明智的。我们需要承认我们的错误，并愿意说对不起并道歉。)”及下文“In fact, it’s smarter than denying mistakes. (事实上，这比否认错误更聪明。)”可知，承认错误这件事没有错，与D项“There is nothing wrong with doing this. (这样做没有错。)”上下文一致，承接上文，符合文意，故选D项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Recognizing when to cut our losses is crucial, allowing us to pursue new opportunities with confidence. (认识到何时止损至关重要，这能让我们充满信心地去追寻新的机会。)”可知，要及时止损，不要再试图从糟糕的情况中获取好结果，与E项“So stop trying to make lemonade from bad lemons. (所以不要再试图用坏柠檬制作柠檬水了。)”上下文一致，形象地总结要及时止损，符合文意，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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sergio Peralta was born with an underdeveloped hand.

However, I didn’t have either in my life these days. Having left my hometown where my family and friends were, I was in an up-hill struggle to earn money from temporary jobs as I battled to get auditions(试听) for my acting career in New York. Trapped in self-doubt, I felt alone and abandoned. “Would I ever find happiness again?” I thought while visiting the park near where I lived. Suddenly, I heard something unexpected—a sound that winded its way here. Somewhere nearby, an orchestra (管弦乐队) was practising. I followed the sounds to a red-roofed building. Inside, the musicians had started to practice, stopping and starting, trying again, laughing at some joke the conductor had made. I approached the director during a break to admire the music. “This is a community orchestra,” he said, “you’re welcome to join. All you need is an instrument.” If only I could afford to buy one! “I’ll keep that in mind,” I said to the director, and walked back home. The next day the director told me they would have a music show at the city centre and invited me to go with them to get familiar with everything in the orchestra. I arrived early that day and decided to wander around. As I past a bookstore, a sign made me stop short: Schumacher Violin Maker. I stepped inside. Stringed instruments hung from the ceiling. At the very corner lay an old violin, which drew my attention. It reminded me of my grandfather’s. An older man in a brown coat sat at a worktable, looking carefully over the top of his glasses as he adjusted the bridge on a violin. “It’s funny I noticed your shop today,” I said and told him my story. “So, you need a violin,” he said when I’d finished, raising a bushy eyebrow. “Do you happen to rent them?” 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。 He shook his head. “But I do have something,” he said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Standing in the city center with the musicians, I started to play the old violin. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 He shook his head. “But I do have something,” he said. He surveyed the rows of instruments and selected an old violin with a faded color. “Take it,” he said. “Go and make your music.” I stood there, surprised, as he handed it to me. Holding the violin, I felt like I’d just woken up from a dream. But it was real — as real as the strings I was touching. After saying thanks, my heart pounding with excitement, I headed for the park. Standing in the city center with the musicians, I started to play the old violin. Playing the violin, I immediately felt at home. We had a wonderful performace. The crowd burst into thunderous applause. I made a ton of friends there. I had a sense of belonging, determined to attend the community orchestra very often. Music brought me good company,  just as my grandfather had promised. I am full of gratitude to my grandfather and the owner of the bookstore. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者离开家人和朋友为在纽约的演艺事业而努力争取试镜机会时，陷入自我怀疑，感到孤独和被抛弃。在书店店主给他一把旧的小提琴让他去参加社区演出时，他相信了祖父说的“只要你有音乐，你就有好伙伴”的鼓励。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他摇摇头。‘但我确实有些东西，’他说。”可知，第一段可描写乐器店老板挑了一把小提琴让作者去作音乐，作者兴奋地去公园参加社区管弦乐队。 ②由第二段首句内容“站在市中心和乐师们一起，我开始拉起那把古老的小提琴”可知，第二段可描写作者通过演奏交了很多朋友。感悟正如祖父所承诺的那样，音乐给他带来了好伙伴。 2.续写线索：兴奋——演奏——通过音乐交到朋友——有归属感——感谢祖父和店主 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①寻找：survey/seek /search ②跳动：pound/bounce/beat ③爆发：burst out/burst into 情绪类 ①感谢：thanks/howing one’s appreciation /be grateful ②激动：excitement /being excited 【点睛】[高分句型1]Holding the violin, I felt like I’d just woken up from a dream. （运用了现在分词作状语及省略that的宾语从句） [高分句型2] Music brought me good company, just as my grandfather had promised.（运用了as引导的定语从句） 1-5 BBCAC 6-10 ABACC 11-15 BACBA 16-20 CAABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 焦作市博爱一中2024—2025学年高三（上）一模考试 英 语 考生注意： 1.答题前，考生务必用黑色签字笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚； 2.每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，在试卷上作答无效； 3.考试结束后，请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，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.Which door does the woman want to have widened?

The Master Gardener program is an all-volunteer organization where you can develop your own leadership and teaching skills while teaching the younger youth about healthy eating, agriculture, and so on! Master Gardeners involve people in activities to improve their general well-being and overall enjoyment of life by helping them find sound management practices for home and urban natural resources, by creating pleasing environments through people-plant interactions and horticultural therapy (园艺疗法), and by providing a safe food supply through home fruit and vegetable production.

B At just 14 years old, Heman Bekele became the Nicole of the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge, standing out among nine other finalists with his creative invention known as the Skin Cancer Treating Soap (肥皂). An recognition of his exceptional achievement, this ninth-grad teenager is set to receive a cash award of $25,000. Bekele’s revolutionary concept, presented through a brief two-minute video, centers on the development of a soap that is not only affordable, priced at less than $10 per bar, but also has the potential to reactivate (重新激活) dendritic cells — the body’s natural defenders of the skin — to fight against skin cancer. In Bekele’s own words, “Curing cancer, one bar of soap at a time.” is passion for biology and technology was the driving force behind this ingenious creation, and the 3M Young Scientist Challenge provided him with the perfect platform to showcase his visionary ideas. Reflecting on his inspiration, Bekele shared that his childhood in Ethiopia played a significant role in shaping his creative thinking. Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the burning sun, he couldn’t help but wonder how many were aware of the risks associated with prolonged sun exposure. “I wanted to make my idea not only scientifically exceptional but also accessible to a broad audience,” Bekele expressed during an interview with The Washington Post. To aid him in realizing his big plans, he received invaluable guidance from Deborah Isabelle, a product engineering specialist at 3M,who connected him with other scientists. Eventually, the path forward for Bekele’s creation includes obtaining FDA approval. During his presentation at the 3M global headquarters in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Bekele passionately articulated his vision of turning the soap into a “symbol of hope, accessibility, and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach for all”. Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a non-profit organization dedicated to distributing his innovative creation to under-served communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer. 4. What does the underlined word “Nicole” mean in paragraph 1? A. Hero B. Winner. C. Example. D. Specialist. 5. How did Bekele get the idea of his invention? A. He was guided by relevant experts. B. He watched a video about science. C. He saw people work in the hot sun D. He dealt with scientists in the field. 6. Which of the following can best describe Bekele? A. Gifted and reliable B. Creative and adaptable. C. Humble and enthusiastic D. Caring and ambitious 7. What is the text probably? A. A children’s story. B. A medical paper. C. A news report. D. A diary entry. C Fashion magazines usually mean grand photoshoots showing models with colorful, eye-catching clothing in unique patterns. But, imagine a fashion magazine without a single picture in it. British Vogue, the UK’s well-known fashion magazine is making history by doing just that, making copies of the magazine available in pictureless Braille (盲文) and audio formats for blind and low vision folks. Selma Blair is best known for her acting career, but she’s also known as a disability advocate. British Vogue interviewed Blair about her struggles with multiple sclerosis (硬化症) in its May 2023 edition and the actress was also featured on the magazine’s cover. That wasn’t an accident, but rather a sign of the fashion magazine’s commitment to disability inclusion. Edward Enninful, the former editor-in-chief of the well-known magazine, announced the new format in an Instagram post that has since gotten more than 40,000 likes. “For the first time in the magazine’s history,” Enninful’s post reads, “I am pleased to share that the magazine is now available in Braille, for blind and partially sighted people. The Vogue team and I are delighted by the response to the May issue, but what the process of making it taught us is that what are most important are clear and lasting changes.” Vogue’s move towards greater accessibility mirrored Eninnful’s experiences and his values. “I’m partially blind and my hearing is less than 50 percent. It’s never stopped me, but there are so many people with invisible disabilities who never talk about it, because it might block them. We always talk about diversity and inclusivity, but that also has to extend to our disabled brothers and sisters,” he said. The move has been warmly praised by people with disabilities and disability advocates. Natalie Trevonne, a blend fashion designer and accessibility consultant, says that the new formats are a good start, but there’s still a lot more to do. She shares, “I just hope they will go beyond that and start including more blind and low vision folks in front of the camera and in more fashion brand campaigns.” 8. Which word can best describe British Vogue’s new copy? A. Creative. B. Profitable. C. Ordinary. D. Conventional. 9. Why did the magazine feature Selma Blair on its cover? A To follow the fashion trend. B. To respect the disabled actress. C. To suit wider public requirement. D. To show the change of the magazine. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. What impact the move made. B. How the move became available. C. How Eninnful supported the move. D. Why British Vogue decided on the change. 11. What is Natalie Trevonne’s attitude towards the move? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Negative. D. Indifferent. D Most people in the Netherlands are convinced that their consumption patterns affect the environment. Many of them are looking for ways to reduce their footprint. However, the reality is more complicated, according to a research by Leiden PhD candidate Levon Amatuni, who studied car sharing and the reuse of phones. He used his background in computer science and mathematics to model and measure the benefits of such practices. His research shows users of car-sharing platforms reduce their impact by only 3 to 18 percent — much less than 51 or 37 percent claimed in previous research. This is caused by so-called “rebound effects”, which are rarely accounted for by companies or even researchers. For example shared vehicles are replaced with new models more frequently than private cars. Additionally, the introduction of sharing schemes (方案) can encourage people to drive when they would have otherwise taken public transport. These rebound effects turn out to be highly influential. Amatuni also found users of sharing platforms don’t significantly reduce their driving. “And if they do, they often take buses and trains, which aren’t emission-free,” he says. While public transport is usually a better option, its impact is not negligible. So, this data must be included to make an accurate assessment. Similarly, Amatuni discovered that a second-hand phone only offsets (抵消) about one-third of a new phone’s production. Rebound effects are the cause. If people couldn’t sell their old devices, they would use them for longer. In other words, reuse both extends the lifetime of a device — by giving it a new owner — but also shortens it, as people tend to sell their newly bought devices sooner. Amatuni doesn’t want people to conclude taking small steps towards sustainability is pointless. “Our intentions are still what’s most important,” he says, “but meanwhile, people need to realise there’re no easy fixes.” He recommends prioritising overall consumption reduction rather than continuing current habits while trying to make them more efficient. 12. What is the focus of Amatuni’s research? A. The ways of reducing people’s footprint. B. The benefits of car sharing and phone reuse. C. The damage of public transport to the environment. D. The knowledge of computer science and mathematics. 13. What does the underlined word “negligible” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Small. B. Permanent. C. Direct. D. Immediate. 14.

This phenomenon also applies to our decision-making process. Humans sometimes make bad choices and stick with them despite negative consequences. ____16____ But in general bad choices have to do with acting out of emotion and not out of reason. Strong emotions can cloud our thinking and lead us down one rabbit hole after another. Doubling down on a bad choice may also relate to our self-esteem and the ability to admit mistakes. Narcissists(自恋者) usually won’t admit a mistake because it contradicts their self-image. But the fact is that many of us aren’t narcissistic. ____17____ Even when trapped in a bad relationship, we may still stick with it, hoping things will eventually change for the better. Resilience involves managing strong emotions and preventing them from fully dictating our decisions. Considering emotion is important, enthusiasm for something can move us forward, but it can also block our vision. ____18____ While relying solely on our “gut feeling” can be helpful, it works best when we use our head, integrating intuitive insights with logical thinking. Doubling down is generally unwise. We need to acknowledge our errors and be willing to say we’re sorry and apologize. ____19____ In fact, it’s smarter than denying mistakes. By admitting them, we learn valuable lessons and promote personal growth. Recognizing when to cut our losses is crucial, allowing us to pursue new opportunities with confidence. ____20____ A. And we often struggle with this. B. The reasons for that are complex. C. Make our decisions with full passion. D. There is nothing wrong with doing this. E. So stop trying to make lemonade from bad lemons. F. The more errors you make, the more you will learn. G. We should consider what’s right, not just what feels right. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sergio Peralta was born with an underdeveloped hand.

However, I didn’t have either in my life these days. Having left my hometown where my family and friends were, I was in an up-hill struggle to earn money from temporary jobs as I battled to get auditions(试听) for my acting career in New York. Trapped in self-doubt, I felt alone and abandoned. “Would I ever find happiness again?” I thought while visiting the park near where I lived. Suddenly, I heard something unexpected—a sound that winded its way here. Somewhere nearby, an orchestra (管弦乐队) was practising. I followed the sounds to a red-roofed building. Inside, the musicians had started to practice, stopping and starting, trying again, laughing at some joke the conductor had made. I approached the director during a break to admire the music. “This is a community orchestra,” he said, “you’re welcome to join. All you need is an instrument.” If only I could afford to buy one! “I’ll keep that in mind,” I said to the director, and walked back home. The next day the director told me they would have a music show at the city centre and invited me to go with them to get familiar with everything in the orchestra. I arrived early that day and decided to wander around. As I past a bookstore, a sign made me stop short: Schumacher Violin Maker. I stepped inside. Stringed instruments hung from the ceiling. At the very corner lay an old violin, which drew my attention. It reminded me of my grandfather’s. An older man in a brown coat sat at a worktable, looking carefully over the top of his glasses as he adjusted the bridge on a violin. “It’s funny I noticed your shop today,” I said and told him my story. “So, you need a violin,” he said when I’d finished, raising a bushy eyebrow. “Do you happen to rent them?” 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。 He shook his head. “But I do have something,” he said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Standing in the city center with the musicians, I started to play the old violin. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BBCAC 6-10 ABACC 11-15 BACBA 16-20 CAABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
