Time witnessed significant connectivity of universal religions that linked communities across continents. The exhibition offers a unique chance to see objects from the silk Roads, from Tang Chinese ceramics (陶艺) for the Middle East ports to Indian garnets (石榴石) found in England.

Inspired by photos of cats pouring themselves into vases and fitting into narrow openings, biologist Péter Pongrácz has tested dozens of cats to see when they act more like liquids or solids. Cats fluidly (流畅地) move through tall and narrow places but hesitate when they approach uncomfortably short holes, Pongrácz reports in the Oct.18 iScience. The finding suggests that cats are aware of their own body size and may form mental images of themselves. Because cats prefer to live alone, they are difficult to test in the lab. So Pongrácz brought the lab to the cats. With help from colleagues, he built a movable lab that they set up in 29homes. In each home, the team attached two cardboard panels to a doorframe: one with five rectangular (矩形的) holes of the same height but decreasing width and another with five holes of the same width but decreasing height. An owner stood on one side of the panel while the cat and the experimenter stood on the other. For each trial, the cat had to squeeze (挤过) from the experimenter’s side to the owner’s side through the holes while being filmed. Thirty out of 38 cats finished the experiment. When faced with holes of varying height, 22 cats hesitated to go through the shortest. When the holes varied in width, only eight cats paused before approaching the narrowest hole. Most cats squeezed through slim openings without hesitating. Hesitation may be a self-preservation method, Pongrácz says. If a cat forces itself through a hole without being able to see what’s on the other side, the cat may be exposed to potential threats. That some cats paused in the safety of their homes suggests that they also rely on their body size to plan their approach. 24. What makes it difficult to test the cats in the lab? A. Their size. B. Their flexibility. C. Their height. D. Their character. 25. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Results of the experiment. B. Subjects of the experiment. C. Methods of the experiment. D. Principles of the experiment. 26. Why did some cats hesitate even before holes leading to their homes? A. They failed to figure out their body size. B. They worried about getting stuck in the hole. C. They hated being handled by the experimenter. D. They were afraid of the danger on the other side. 27. What is the best title of the passage? A. One scientist puts cats’ liquid nature to test B. Solid or liquid, that is out of the question C. Cats act more like liquids when in danger D. Hesitation keeps cats safe from danger C Have you ever wondered why creative individuals seem to spot things that other miss? whether it’s an inventor who finds an innovative solution to a familiar problem or an artist who reinterprets a landscape in a fresh way, many creative people have a special ability to find significance even in ordinary things. Think about Isaac Newton’s famous insight into gravity. According to the story, Newton saw an apple fall from a tree ― something most people might view as unimportant. Yet, in this instance, he saw the apple’s fall as significant, causing him to think about it more deeply. Entertaining the potential importance of this seemingly irrelevant occurrence led to a breakthrough connection: that the same force causing the apple to fall also influences celestial bodies like the Moon. In this example the creative individual’s brain flags unusual or ‘irrelevant’ information as significant, stimulating them to explore it further. This exploration allows them to consider remote ideas and associations that others overlook, increasing the possibility of a creative insight. A similar process likely unfolds in artistic contexts, such as when a painter, musician or filmmaker sees a seemingly irrelevant detail as meaningful. For instance, an artist may find themselves captivated by the shadow cast by an object, finding it more interesting than the object itself. This might inspire a series of works exploring the hidden beauty of shadows. The uniqueness of creative individuals lies in their ability to perceive and prioritise information in distinctive ways, welcoming the unconventional and unexpected, which helps them think outside the box and come up with original ideas. 28. Why does the author mention Newton’s story in the second paragraph? A. To entertain the readers. B. To suspend disbelief. C. To support a viewpoint. D. To explain a theory. 29. What does the underlined word “captivated” in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Tricked. B. Misled. C. Attracted. D. Withdrawn. 30. What is key to boosting creativity according to the passage? A. Removing irrelevant information. B. Perceiving what other people ignore. C. Giving priority to unimportant details. D. Spotting the most obvious information. 31. What can we infer from the passage? A. What is unconventional and unexpected guarantees original ideas B. Ordinary people tend to overlook relevant and important information. C. What seems irrelevant sometimes is likely to bring about creative insight D. Creative individuals are born with the ability to spot significance in things. D Memes (模因) didn’t start with the internet. Some linguists argue that humans have used memes to communicate for centuries. Memes are widely known as channels for cultural conversations and as an opportunity to participate in Internet trends. The word “meme” has been used in the New York Times Crossword 60 times since the column started in the 1940s. Although it’s difficult to identify the first meme ever, the British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is credited with coining the term in his 1976 book, “The Selfsh Gene.” In his original conception, a “meme” was somewhat similar to a “phoneme,” the smallest unit of sound in speech. “I would explain the concept of a meme ― a self-replicating (复制) piece of information ― by asking someone about an inside joke they had with friends or an advertising jingle (短曲) that’s been stuck in their head for 20 years,” said Kirby Conrod, a professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College. “That piece of information, the joke or the jingle, self-replicates because we humans like to share and repeat stuff.” Memes are shareable by nature. In a world where you are constantly fed online news, the meme format catches your eye, and most of them can be read and understood within seconds. The power of a meme lies in its transmissibility (传递性) and unique talent for being cross-cultural. Creating and sharing memes boosts a sense of community online and brings people together through humor. Meme culture is constantly developing, and the future of memes is unpredictable, but some of the internet’s most popular meme creators have thoughts on where it might be headed. Mr Price, of Memes.com, for example, predicted that in five years ― or sooner ― every cultural moment and every news story will have an accompanying meme, and that meme will be a large part of the mainstream conversation about that event. “Memes on the internet took what is already naturally occurring in the way that we communicate and supercharged it by making it global and simple,” he said. What can I say? The girls that get it, get it and the girls that don’t, don’t. 32. What can we learn about “meme” according to the first two paragraphs? A. It only sounds like the word “gene”. B. It made its first appearance in the 1940s C. It is the smallest sound unit in speech. D. It was a term first introduced by Mr. Dawkins. 33. What does Professor Conrod think of memes? A. They allow for cultural diversity online. B. They spread humor and political messages. C. They make advertising shareable and readable. D. They are frequently shared and repeated by humans. 34. What is Mr. Price’s attitude towards the future of memes? A. Unclear. B. Optimistic. C. Negative. D. Objective. 35. How do you understand the last paragraph? A. The target reader of the article are girls B. It implies a certain famous meme story. C. The author has doubts about the essay. D. It has nothing to do with this article. 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。 Building habits of group vulnerability(脫弱)is like building a muscle. It takes time repetition, and the willingness to feel pain in order to achieve gains.____36____With that in mind, here are a few workout ideas, for both individuals and groups. Make sure the leader is vulnerable first and often: As we’ve seen group cooperation is created by small, frequently repeated moments of vulnerability.____37____ I saw a vivid example when I watched Danny Meyer run one of his morning meetings with his staff, Meyer is the founder of Union Square Cafe, Shake Shack, Gramercy Tavern, and a number of other restaurants that together are worth more than a billion dollars.____38____The staff meeting began with the group watching a video of Meyer's speech. Then the lights went up and Meyer spoke. “Can you see my leg shaking?” he asked the group.”____39____I’ve given a lot of speeches, but the TED people wanted something more, something deeper and thoughtful. So I slept about three hours the night before, which is why I have those bags under my eyes. We had a terrible rehearsal (排练), and I kept messing up the PowerPoint. So it was almost a complete terrible show. Except that I’m lucky enough to have some absolutely brilliant help.” He paused and pointed. “Thanks, Chip and Haley. They made the whole thing work. They wrote great stuff, gave me great advice, and kept me together,” Everyone looked at Chip and Haley and gave a short round of applause while Meyer looked on approvingly. Meyer delivered the message was scared with steadiness, confidence, and comfort that underlined the deeper message: It’s safe to tell the truth here.____40____ A. I was so nervou shaking like a leaf. B. His vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s his strength. C. Danny Meyer is a restaurant founder from St. Louis, Missouri. D. The night before my visit, he had delivered his first-ever TED Talk. E. And as with building muscle, the first key is to approach the process with a plan. F. Gentle pressure is my preferred technique for leadership, guidance, and coaching. G. Of these, none carries more power than the moment when a leader signals vulnerability. 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。 Before graduation, I asked my adviser for feedback on areas where I could improve.

Within minutes of coming out, doctors gave my parents the difficult news: I was born missing my left hand. Indeed, that announcement of my limb difference might have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. I’m told that a nurse placed me m my mother’s arms and instructed: “You will take her home. You will love her. you will raise her like you would any child. You will treat her as normal” My parents took that instruction seriously, I played sport, acted in theatre, excelled in school, participated in student government and had playdates. while I did set some stares and ‘polite’ questions about my disability, I am lucky because I wasn’t made fun of for my limb difference. As kids do, I learned to adapt. One of earliest memories is my father trying to teach me to tie my shoes. I gently pushed him out of the way because his two=handed method wouldn’t work for me, and I figured out a way to do it with one hand. Not every challenge was that simple, however. Because my parents were trying so hard to make me feel ‘normal’, that also meant I didn’t really have space to talk about my limb difference ― and it was different. No matter how hard we tried, other kids had two hands and I had only one. The fact that I was different hit me hard my first day of high school. I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-conscious. I remember getting on the bus and one of the other kids stared just a little too long at my left arm. The staring upset me in a way it never had before, and I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I immediately slipped it into my pocket. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 词左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I spent the next two decades keeping my limb difference hidden at all times. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The journey of hiding to unhiding is hard, but the efforts were rewarding. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 苏州市2024-2025学年第一学期学业质量阳光指标调研卷 高 三 英 语 2025.01 注意: 本卷分第一卷(选择题)和第二卷(非选择题)两部分。两部分答案都做在答顺卡上。总分为150分。调研时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分 30 分) 做题时，先将管案标在试卷上，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。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What has the woman begun doing lately?

How and why did you start? W:It started as a personal diary for recording what I had done. Friends encouraged me to post more often and then more people found me and it went viral. M: I see you have a variety of plants. What would you recommend for a beginner? W: Herbs would be a good choice. They're very useful, grow fast and are hard to kill. They also attract good insects and can help improve the soil. M: Good, what new plants are you thinking about for next season? W: I'll add some bushes, strawberries and some nuts. These short plants will add shade and in a few years produce a tasty, nutritious crop. And after a couple of years of failure, I will try growing cabbage again. M: What would you say to someone thinking of creating their own food forest? W: Observe the area, which means understanding your soil and conditions. Start small and go slow. Use space both underground for roots and above. For leaves. Understand each plant's needs and functions. M: Inspiring. We look forward to learning more about your growing journey. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 18. How did the couple keep in touch with the speaker about Benny? A. They often made video calls. B.

A 【解析】 【原文】M: Today, as I reflect on my first year of volunteering at the local animal shelter, I want to share a story that touched my heart. Early in the year, we rescued a shy, hurt dog named benny. Benny was more than just another rescued animal. He became a symbol of hope and the power of love for us. As we brought him back to health, we all realize there was something special about this dog. It's hard to put into words that feeling of connection with an animal. All of us put in extra care for benny. As he trusted us more, he became more playful and smarter and would wag his tail. He took training well too. Eventually when he saw a young couple come to find a dog. Then he wagged his tail like never before. The couple loved him at first sight and adopted him on their first visit. Every so often they would contact and send photos of him. I know as a volunteer, I am helping not just animals but people. This experience has given me lessons on sympathy and teamwork. It gives me great Joy to know that I really do make a difference. Volunteering here isn't just about the animals, it's about bringing us together on two legs or four, we're all stronger together. I encourage all of you to consider joining the team in some way. 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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Silk Roads The Silk Roads were in use for about a thousand years, but this exhibition focuses on a defining period in history.

Inspired by photos of cats pouring themselves into vases and fitting into narrow openings, biologist Péter Pongrácz has tested dozens of cats to see when they act more like liquids or solids. Cats fluidly (流畅地) move through tall and narrow places but hesitate when they approach uncomfortably short holes, Pongrácz reports in the Oct.18 iScience. The finding suggests that cats are aware of their own body size and may form mental images of themselves. Because cats prefer to live alone, they are difficult to test in the lab. So Pongrácz brought the lab to the cats. With help from colleagues, he built a movable lab that they set up in 29homes. In each home, the team attached two cardboard panels to a doorframe: one with five rectangular (矩形的) holes of the same height but decreasing width and another with five holes of the same width but decreasing height. An owner stood on one side of the panel while the cat and the experimenter stood on the other. For each trial, the cat had to squeeze (挤过) from the experimenter’s side to the owner’s side through the holes while being filmed. Thirty out of 38 cats finished the experiment. When faced with holes of varying height, 22 cats hesitated to go through the shortest. When the holes varied in width, only eight cats paused before approaching the narrowest hole. Most cats squeezed through slim openings without hesitating. Hesitation may be a self-preservation method, Pongrácz says. If a cat forces itself through a hole without being able to see what’s on the other side, the cat may be exposed to potential threats. That some cats paused in the safety of their homes suggests that they also rely on their body size to plan their approach. 24. What makes it difficult to test the cats in the lab? A. Their size. B. Their flexibility. C. Their height. D. Their character. 25. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Results of the experiment. B. Subjects of the experiment. C. Methods of the experiment. D. Principles of the experiment. 26. Why did some cats hesitate even before holes leading to their homes? A. They failed to figure out their body size. B. They worried about getting stuck in the hole. C. They hated being handled by the experimenter. D. They were afraid of the danger on the other side. 27. What is the best title of the passage? A. One scientist puts cats’ liquid nature to test B. Solid or liquid, that is out of the question C. Cats act more like liquids when in danger D. Hesitation keeps cats safe from danger 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了生物学家Péter Pongrácz受猫咪钻进花瓶和狭窄开口的照片启发，测试猫咪在何时更像液体或固体，实验发现猫咪会根据自身身体大小和对危险的判断来决定是否通过洞口。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Because cats prefer to live alone, they are difficult to test in the lab. (因为猫喜欢独居，所以它们很难在实验室里进行测试)”可知，是猫的独居性格使得在实验室测试它们变得困难。故选D项。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“In each home, the team attached two cardboard panels to a doorframe: one with five rectangular (矩形的) holes of the same height but decreasing width and another with five holes of the same width but decreasing height. An owner stood on one side of the panel while the cat and the experimenter stood on the other. For each trial, the cat had to squeeze (挤过) from the experimenter’s side to the owner’s side through the holes while being filmed.(在每个家中，研究小组将两块纸板固定在门框上：一块上有五个高度相同但宽度逐渐减小的矩形孔，另一块上有五个宽度相同但高度逐渐减小的孔。房主站在纸板的一侧，而猫和实验者站在另一侧。在每次试验中，猫必须从实验者的那一侧通过这些孔挤到房主的那一侧，整个过程被拍摄下来)”可知，本段主要介绍了在每个家庭中，研究团队在门框上安装两个纸板面板，一个有五个高度相同但宽度递减的矩形孔，另一个有五个宽度相同但高度递减的孔，主人站在面板的一侧，猫和实验者站在另一侧，猫要从实验者一侧通过这些孔挤到主人一侧并被拍摄下来，这都是在介绍实验的方法。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“If a cat forces itself through a hole without being able to see what's on the other side, the cat may be exposed to potential threats. (如果一只猫在看不到另一边情况的情况下强行穿过一个洞，它可能会面临潜在的威胁)”以及最后一句“That some cats paused in the safety of their homes suggests that they also rely on their body size to plan their approach.(一些猫在自家安全的情况下也会犹豫，这表明它们也依靠自己的体型来计划行动方式)”可推知，一些猫即使在通向自家的洞口前也会犹豫，是因为它们担心被困在洞里。故选B项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Cats may seem solid, but they’re actually somewhat liquid. Inspired by photos of cats pouring themselves into vases and fitting into narrow openings, biologist Péter Pongrácz has tested dozens of cats to see when they act more like liquids or solids.( 猫看起来可能是固体的，但实际上它们在某种程度上更像液体。受到猫钻进花瓶并适应狭窄开口的照片的启发，生物学家Péter Pongrácz测试了几十只猫，以观察它们在何时表现得更像液体或固体)”、第三段“Because cats prefer to live alone, they are difficult to test in the lab. (因为猫喜欢独居，所以它们很难在实验室里进行测试)”、最后一段“If a cat forces itself through a hole without being able to see what's on the other side, the cat may be exposed to potential threats. (如果一只猫在看不到另一边情况的情况下强行穿过一个洞，它可能会面临潜在的威胁)”以及最后一句“That some cats paused in the safety of their homes suggests that they also rely on their body size to plan their approach.(一些猫在自家安全的情况下也会犹豫，这表明它们也依靠自己的体型来计划行动方式)”可知，文章开篇指出猫看起来是固体，但实际上有点像液体，生物学家Péter Pongrácz对猫进行了测试，后面详细介绍了实验过程和结果，A项“One scientist puts cats’ liquid nature to test (一位科学家对猫的液体特性进行测试)”表达的含义能概括文章主旨，是最佳标题。故选A项。 C Have you ever wondered why creative individuals seem to spot things that other miss? whether it’s an inventor who finds an innovative solution to a familiar problem or an artist who reinterprets a landscape in a fresh way, many creative people have a special ability to find significance even in ordinary things. Think about Isaac Newton’s famous insight into gravity. According to the story, Newton saw an apple fall from a tree ― something most people might view as unimportant. Yet, in this instance, he saw the apple’s fall as significant, causing him to think about it more deeply. Entertaining the potential importance of this seemingly irrelevant occurrence led to a breakthrough connection: that the same force causing the apple to fall also influences celestial bodies like the Moon. In this example, the creative individual’s brain flags unusual or ‘irrelevant’ information as significant, stimulating them to explore it further. This exploration allows them to consider remote ideas and associations that others overlook, increasing the possibility of a creative insight. A similar process likely unfolds in artistic contexts, such as when a painter, musician or filmmaker sees a seemingly irrelevant detail as meaningful. For instance, an artist may find themselves captivated by the shadow cast by an object, finding it more interesting than the object itself. This might inspire a series of works exploring the hidden beauty of shadows. The uniqueness of creative individuals lies in their ability to perceive and prioritise information in distinctive ways, welcoming the unconventional and unexpected, which helps them think outside the box and come up with original ideas. 28. Why does the author mention Newton’s story in the second paragraph? A. To entertain the readers. B. To suspend disbelief. C. To support a viewpoint. D. To explain a theory. 29. What does the underlined word “captivated” in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Tricked. B. Misled. C. Attracted. D. Withdrawn. 30. What is key to boosting creativity according to the passage? A. Removing irrelevant information. B. Perceiving what other people ignore. C. Giving priority to unimportant details. D. Spotting the most obvious information. 31. What can we infer from the passage? A What is unconventional and unexpected guarantees original ideas B. Ordinary people tend to overlook relevant and important information. C. What seems irrelevant sometimes is likely to bring about creative insight D. Creative individuals are born with the ability to spot significance in things. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，阐述了有创造力的人能发现别人忽视的事物，他们的大脑会将不寻常或“不相关”的信息标记为重要，从而刺激他们进一步探索，进而产生创造性的见解。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段提出观点“creative individuals seem to spot things that other miss(有创造力的人似乎能发现别人错过的东西)”、第二段“Think about Isaac Newton’s famous insight into gravity. According to the story, Newton saw an apple fall from a tree ― something most people might view as unimportant. Yet, in this instance, he saw the apple’s fall as significant, causing him to think about it more deeply. Entertaining the potential importance of this seemingly irrelevant occurrence led to a breakthrough connection: that the same force causing the apple to fall also influences celestial bodies like the Moon(想一想艾萨克·牛顿关于引力的著名见解。据这个故事说，牛顿看到一颗苹果从树上落下——这是大多数人可能认为不重要的事情。然而，在这个例子中，他把这个苹果的掉落看作是重要的，促使他更深入地思考。对这一看似不相关的事件的潜在重要性进行思考，导致了突破性的联系：即导致苹果掉落的同样力量也影响着像月球这样的天体)”可知，第一段提出了观点“有创造力的人似乎能发现别人错过的东西”，第二段讲述牛顿看到苹果落地这个大多数人认为不重要的事却深入思考得出重力的理论，是为了支持第一段提出的观点，故选C项。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“an artist may find themselvescaptivated by the shadow cast by an object, finding it more interesting than the object itself.(一位艺术家可能会发现自己被一个物体投下的阴影所captivated，发现它比物体本身更有趣)”可知，艺术家可能会发现物体投下的阴影比物体本身更有趣。可推理出这里是说艺术家被阴影所吸引，所以captivated的意思是“吸引”，故选C项。 30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“creative individuals seem to spot things that other miss(有创造力的人似乎能发现别人错过的东西)”以及第三段“The uniqueness of creative individuals lies in their ability to perceive and prioritise information in distinctive ways, welcoming the unconventional and unexpected, which helps them think outside the box and come up with original ideas(有创造力的人的独特之处在于他们能够以独特的方式感知和优先处理信息，欢迎非传统和意外的事物，这有助于他们跳出框框思考并提出原创想法)”可知，提升创造力的关键是感知别人忽视的东西。故选B项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Think about Isaac Newton’s famous insight into gravity. According to the story, Newton saw an apple fall from a tree ― something most people might view as unimportant. Yet, in this instance, he saw the apple's fall as significant, causing him to think about it more deeply.

A similar process likely unfolds in artistic contexts, such as when a painter, musician or filmmaker sees a seemingly irrelevant detail as meaningful (这种探索使他们能够思考别人忽视的遥远想法和联系，增加了获得创造性见解的可能性。在艺术情境中，可能也会展开类似的过程，例如，当画家、音乐家或电影制作人认为一个看似不相关的细节是有意义的时候)”可知，感知别人忽视的东西使他们能够思考别人忽视的遥远想法和联系，增加了获得创造性见解的可能性。可推理出有时看似不相关的事物有可能带来创造性的见解。故选C项。 D Memes (模因) didn’t start with the internet. Some linguists argue that humans have used memes to communicate for centuries. Memes are widely known as channels for cultural conversations and as an opportunity to participate in Internet trends. The word “meme” has been used in the New York Times Crossword 60 times since the column started in the 1940s. Although it’s difficult to identify the first meme ever, the British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is credited with coining the term in his 1976 book, “The Selfsh Gene.” In his original conception, a “meme” was somewhat similar to a “phoneme,” the smallest unit of sound in speech. “I would explain the concept of a meme ― a self-replicating (复制) piece of information ― by asking someone about an inside joke they had with friends or an advertising jingle (短曲) that’s been stuck in their head for 20 years,” said Kirby Conrod, a professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College. “That piece of information, the joke or the jingle, self-replicates because we humans like to share and repeat stuff.” Memes are shareable by nature. In a world where you are constantly fed online news, the meme format catches your eye, and most of them can be read and understood within seconds. The power of a meme lies in its transmissibility (传递性) and unique talent for being cross-cultural. Creating and sharing memes boosts a sense of community online and brings people together through humor. Meme culture is constantly developing, and the future of memes is unpredictable, but some of the internet’s most popular meme creators have thoughts on where it might be headed. Mr Price, of Memes.com, for example, predicted that in five years ― or sooner ― every cultural moment and every news story will have an accompanying meme, and that meme will be a large part of the mainstream conversation about that event. “Memes on the internet took what is already naturally occurring in the way that we communicate and supercharged it by making it global and simple,” he said. What can I say? The girls that get it, get it and the girls that don’t, don’t. 32. What can we learn about “meme” according to the first two paragraphs? A. It only sounds like the word “gene”. B. It made its first appearance in the 1940s C. It is the smallest sound unit in speech. D. It was a term first introduced by Mr. Dawkins. 33. What does Professor Conrod think of memes? A. They allow for cultural diversity online. B. They spread humor and political messages. C. They make advertising shareable and readable. D. They are frequently shared and repeated by humans. 34. What is Mr. Price’s attitude towards the future of memes? A. Unclear. B. Optimistic. C. Negative. D. Objective. 35. How do you understand the last paragraph? A. The target reader of the article are girls B. It implies a certain famous meme story. C. The author has doubts about the essay. D. It has nothing to do with this article. 【答案】32. D 33. D 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了模因的起源，定义以及特点等。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Although it’s difficult to identify the first meme ever, the British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is credited with coining the term in his1976 book, “The Selfsh Gene.”(尽管很难确定第一个模因，但英国进化生物学家理查德·道金斯 (Richard Dawkins) 在他 1976 年的著作《自私的基因》(The Selfsh Gene) 中创造了这个术语)”可知，“meme”这个术语是Dawkins先生首先提出的，故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““I would explain the concept of a meme ― a self-replicating (复制) piece of information   ― by asking someone about an inside joke they had with friends or an advertising jingle (短曲) that’s been stuck in their head for 20 years,” said Kirby Conrod, a professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College. “That piece of information, the joke or the jingle, self-replicates because we humans like to share and repeat stuff.”(“我会通过询问某人与朋友的内部笑话或在他们脑海中扎根20 年的广告歌曲来解释模因（一种自我复制的信息）的概念。”斯沃斯莫尔学院语言学教授柯比·康罗德说。“这条信息，无论是笑话还是顺口溜，都会自我复制，因为我们人类喜欢分享和重复东西。”)”可知，教授柯比·康罗德认为 模因经常被人类共享和重复。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Mr Price, of Memes.com, for example, predicted that in five years ― or sooner ― every cultural moment and every news story will have an accompanying meme, and that meme will be a large part of the mainstream conversation about that event(例如，Memes.com 的普莱斯先生预测，五年内或更短的时间内，每个文化时刻和每个新闻故事都会有一个伴随的模因，而该模因将成为有关该事件的主流对话的重要组成部分)”可推知，普莱斯先生对模因的未来持乐观态度，故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“What can I say? The girls that get it, get it and the girls that don’t, don’t.(我能说什么？懂的女孩就懂，不懂的女孩就不懂)”和第三段中“I would explain the concept of a meme ― a self-replicating (复制) piece of information ― by asking someone about an inside joke they had with friends or an advertising jingle ( 短曲 ) that’s been stuck in their head for 20 years(我会通过询问某人与朋友的内部笑话或在他们脑海中萦绕了 20 年的广告歌曲来解释模因（一种自我复制的信息）的概念)”可知，最后一段是一个模因，由此可推知，最后一段暗示着某个著名的模因故事，故选B。 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。 Building habits of group vulnerability(脫弱)is like building a muscle. It takes time repetition, and the willingness to feel pain in order to achieve gains.____36____With that in mind, here are a few workout ideas, for both individuals and groups. Make sure the leader is vulnerable first and often: As we’ve seen, group cooperation is created by small, frequently repeated moments of vulnerability.____37____ I saw a vivid example when I watched Danny Meyer run one of his morning meetings with his staff, Meyer is the founder of Union Square Cafe, Shake Shack, Gramercy Tavern, and a number of other restaurants that together are worth more than a billion dollars.____38____The staff meeting began with the group watching a video of Meyer's speech. Then the lights went up and Meyer spoke. “Can you see my leg shaking?” he asked the group.”____39____I’ve given a lot of speeches, but the TED people wanted something more, something deeper and thoughtful. So I slept about three hours the night before, which is why I have those bags under my eyes. We had a terrible rehearsal (排练), and I kept messing up the PowerPoint. So it was almost a complete terrible show. Except that I’m lucky enough to have some absolutely brilliant help.” He paused and pointed. “Thanks, Chip and Haley. They made the whole thing work. They wrote great stuff, gave me great advice, and kept me together,” Everyone looked at Chip and Haley and gave a short round of applause while Meyer looked on approvingly. Meyer delivered the message was scared with steadiness, confidence, and comfort that underlined the deeper message: It’s safe to tell the truth here.____40____ A. I was so nervou shaking like a leaf. B. His vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s his strength. C. Danny Meyer is a restaurant founder from St. Louis, Missouri. D. The night before my visit, he had delivered his first-ever TED Talk. E. And as with building muscle, the first key is to approach the process with a plan. F. Gentle pressure is my preferred technique for leadership, guidance, and coaching. G. Of these, none carries more power than the moment when a leader signals vulnerability. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. D 39. A 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了培养团队示弱习惯的方法，以餐厅创始人丹尼・迈耶为例，说明了领导者率先示弱对团队合作的重要性。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Building habits of group vulnerability is like building a muscle. It takes time, repetition, and the willingness to feel pain in order to achieve gains(培养团队示弱的习惯就像锻炼肌肉。这需要时间、重复练习，以及为了取得进步而愿意承受痛苦的意愿)”以及下文“With that in mind, here are a few workout ideas, for both individuals and groups.(考虑到这一点，这里有一些针对个人和团队的 “锻炼” 想法)” 可知，此处需要一个过渡句，将培养团队示弱习惯与锻炼肌肉进行类比，并引出下文关于培养习惯的具体方法。E选项“And as with building muscle, the first key is to approach the process with a plan(就像锻炼肌肉一样，第一个关键是要有一个计划来进行这个过程)”符合语境，既提到了与锻炼肌肉的相似之处，又指出了要有计划，与下文的“锻炼”想法相呼应，故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Make sure the leader is vulnerable first and often: As we’ve seen, group cooperation is created by small, frequently repeated moments of vulnerability(确保领导者首先且经常示弱：正如我们所看到的，团队合作是由小的、频繁重复的示弱时刻创造的)”可知，此处强调领导者示弱对团队合作的重要性。G选项“Of these, none carries more power than the moment when a leader signals vulnerability.(在这些因素中，没有什么比领导者表现出示弱的时刻更有力量了)”进一步强调了领导者示弱的重要性，与上文衔接紧密，故选G项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“I saw a vivid example when I watched Danny Meyer run one of his morning meetings with his staff, Meyer is the founder of Union Square Cafe, Shake Shack, Gramercy Tavern, and a number of other restaurants that together are worth more than a billion dollars.(当我看到丹尼・迈耶与他的员工举行一次早会时，我看到了一个生动的例子。迈耶是联合广场咖啡馆、奶昔小站、格拉梅西酒馆以及其他一些餐厅的创始人，这些餐厅加起来价值超过十亿美元)”以及下文“The staff meeting began with the group watching a video of Meyer's speech.(员工会议以团队观看迈耶的演讲视频开始)”可知，此处需要一个句子来引出迈耶演讲的相关内容。D选项“The night before my visit, he had delivered his first-ever TED Talk(在我访问的前一天晚上，他发表了他的第一次TED演讲)”符合语境，介绍了迈耶在会议前一晚进行了TED演讲，与下文观看演讲视频相呼应，故选D项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Can you see my leg shaking?(你能看到我的腿在颤抖吗？)”可知，迈耶在描述自己的紧张状态。A选项“I was so nervous shaking like a leaf.(我非常紧张，像树叶一样颤抖)”进一步说明了他的紧张程度，与上文的“腿在颤抖”相呼应，故选A项。 【40题详解】 根据上文 “Meyer delivered the message was scared with steadiness, confidence, and comfort that underlined the deeper message: It’s safe to tell the truth here(迈耶以坚定、自信和舒适的态度传达了他害怕的信息，这强调了一个更深层次的信息：在这里说实话是安全的)”可知，迈耶通过示弱传达了积极的信息。B选项“His vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s his strength(他的示弱不是弱点，而是他的优势)”对迈耶的示弱进行了总结，说明示弱对他来说是一种优势，符合语境，故选B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。 Before graduation, I asked my adviser for feedback on areas where I could improve.

Within minutes of coming out, doctors gave my parents the difficult news: I was born missing my left hand. Indeed, that announcement of my limb difference might have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. I’m told that a nurse placed me m my mother’s arms and instructed: “You will take her home. You will love her. you will raise her like you would any child. You will treat her as normal” My parents took that instruction seriously, I played sport, acted in theatre, excelled in school, participated in student government and had playdates. while I did set some stares and ‘polite’ questions about my disability, I am lucky because I wasn’t made fun of for my limb difference. As kids do, I learned to adapt. One of earliest memories is my father trying to teach me to tie my shoes. I gently pushed him out of the way because his two=handed method wouldn’t work for me, and I figured out a way to do it with one hand. Not every challenge was that simple, however. Because my parents were trying so hard to make me feel ‘normal’, that also meant I didn’t really have space to talk about my limb difference ― and it was different. No matter how hard we tried, other kids had two hands and I had only one. The fact that I was different hit me hard my first day of high school. I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-conscious. I remember getting on the bus and one of the other kids stared just a little too long at my left arm. The staring upset me in a way it never had before, and I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I immediately slipped it into my pocket. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 词左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I spent the next two decades keeping my limb difference hidden at all times. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The journey of hiding to unhiding is hard, but the efforts were rewarding. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: I spent the next two decades keeping my limb difference hidden at all times. I’d keep my hand in my pocket, cover it with extra-long sleeves or tuck it behind bags or underneath jackets. In my mind, I had decided that my missing hand made me extremely ugly and that if people knew about it they would not want to be around me anymore. I internalised this self-loathing, .and it only strengthened over the years, When I finally realized I was not thriving, I was determined to stop it. The journey of hiding to unhiding was hard, but the efforts were rewarding. I learned that being comfortable with myself made other people more comfortable as well. Talking about my struggles gave them permission to talk about theirs as well, and I was able to bond on a deeper level with a much larger group of people. For 25 years, I’ve worked in non-profit organisations working with young people. Accepting my disability has sparked a passion in me to educate others about disability as part of diversity, through public speaking and writing. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者天生左手缺失，但在父母和护士的鼓励下，以及通过自己的努力和适应，积极参与各种活动，不被残疾所限制的成长故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“接下来的二十年里，我一直把我的肢体差异隐藏起来。”可知，第一段可描写作者具体隐藏肢体差异的方式，以及这种隐藏背后的心理原因，还有最终想要改变的决心。 ②由第二段首句内容“从隐藏到不再隐藏的过程很艰难，但这些努力是值得的。”可知，第二段可描写作者不再隐藏后所获得的收获，包括自身心态的转变、与他人关系的变化，以及因接受残疾而引发的对生活的积极影响。 2.续写线索：隐藏方式——隐藏原因——内心挣扎——决定改变——心态变化——与他人关系——对自身生活的积极影响 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①决定：decide/determine ②意识到：realize /be aware of /come to realize ③接受：accept/jump at ④加强：strengthen/enhance 情绪类： ①舒适的：comfortable/cosy ②热情：passion/enthusiasm 【点睛】[高分句型1] In my mind, I had decided that my missing hand made me extremely ugly and that if people knew about it they would not want to be around me anymore.（运用了that引导宾语从句，if引导的条件状语从句） [高分句型2] Accepting my disability has sparked a passion in me to educate others about disability as part of diversity, through public speaking and writing.（运用了动名词短语作主语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
