But she wanted to learn and grow, so she broke free from her upbringing. Her transformative journey to education was hard, both in school and in life, but it showed how learning can change a person. (Westover出生在爱达荷州偏远的山区，从未接受过正规教育。但她渴望学习和成长，于是挣脱了家庭环境的束缚。她求学之路充满艰辛，无论是在学校还是生活中，但这证明了学习能够改变一个人)”可知，《你当像鸟飞往你的山》讲述了Westover从没有接受正规教育到通过努力学习和成长的故事，强调了她通过教育改变自己的经历。由此可知，这本书与其他三本书的不同之处在于强调教育的力量。故选D项。 【17题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger部分中“This book is about a boy named Holden who is growing up in 1950s America. He goes on an adventure in New York City and looks for connections, understanding, and personal growth. (这本书是关于一个叫Holden的男孩的，他成长在20世纪50年代的美国。他在纽约进行了一次冒险，寻找人际关系、理解和个人成长)”和The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky部分中“This story is set in the 1990s and is about a boy named Charlie who is trying to find his place in the world. Through his self-reflecting letters, readers can see his emotional journey as he discovers who he is. (故事发生在20世纪90年代，讲述了一个名叫Charlie的男孩试图在这个世界上找到自己的位置的故事。通过他的自省信件，读者可以看到他发现自己是谁的情感旅程)”可知，《麦田里的守望者》和《壁花少年》都聚焦青少年主角的成长经历，探索青少年的成长。故选D项。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien部分中“Central to the narrative is the theme of achieving maturity, which Tolkien illustrates isn’t confined to age. Characters of all ages face fears and grow in surprising ways.

It has been loved by many generations of readers because its story is warm and the characters are so lively. When you start reading it, it feels like you go to the beautiful Prince Edward Island in Canada. On this island, there lives Anne Shirley, an orphan girl. She is very creative but also feels lonely sometimes. Anne often has some unique and imaginative ideas. For example, she can turn an ordinary tea party into a magical adventure just by using her own ideas. She also likes to share her stories and thoughts with others. This makes the people around her very happy. The story starts with Anne being adopted by Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert. They actually wanted to adopt a boy to help with farm work, but they got Anne by mistake. However, Anne brings a lot of active energy to their lives. One great thing about this novel is that it shows how Anne changes and grows. The author shows Anne’s journey from childhood to young adulthood through her different experiences, like making friends, falling in love, and dealing with loss. This story can not only entertain readers but also teach them some valuable lessons about life. What’s more, it tells us that learning is not just about schoolwork. It also includes growing morally and emotionally. We can clearly see this from Anne’s experiences. Her getting along with her new family and community, together with her teachers’ patience, her friends’ friendship, and her adoptive family’s love, all help her grow. This shows the importance of education in daily life and relationships. The author also writes about the change in Anne’s attitude. She used to care a lot about her appearance. But later, she learned to accept her own uniqueness. This is shown in the words: “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” These words show her happiness with simple things in life and her joy of being herself. Readers all around the world like this novel because it has a lasting appeal. In a recent survey, more than 80% of readers said they were deeply touched by Anne’s story. Mark Twain said Anne was “the dearest and most delightful child since Alice.” Some scholars like Zhou Guoping have noticed that Anne has two precious qualities: a sense of wonder about life and an optimistic imagination. Bianca Schulze, the founder of The Children’s Book Review, says that readers are closely connected to Anne’s spirit of perseverance and optimism. This can really give people inspiration. When I close the book, the vivid scenery of Prince Edward Island and the deep thoughts about human nature and life remain in my mind. Like Anne, each of us has dreams and also faces difficulties. We all hope to find a place where we belong. This novel teaches us how to face life. Even when reality makes us feel a little down, we should not be afraid. Just as Anne might say, “Isn’t it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?” This message makes the book very valuable for anyone who starts their journey of self-discovery. 23. What makes Anne of Green Gables popular among readers? A. The beautiful island. B. Its plots and roles. C. Its famous author. D. The creative girl in it. 24. What does Anne’s growth mainly benefit from according to paragraph 4? A. Her unique ideas. B. The island’s beautiful scenery. C. Her interactions with others. D. Her learning from loss. 25.

What is the genre of the text? A. A diary entry. B. A novel collection. C. A children’s story. D. A book review. 【答案】23. B 24. C 25. C 26. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。本文是《绿山墙的安妮》一书的书评，主要介绍了一书的内容、特点及读者反馈。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“It has been loved by many generations of readers because its story is warm and the characters are so lively.

(她与新的家庭和社区的相处，以及老师的耐心、朋友的友谊和收养家庭的爱，都帮助她成长。)”可知，她的成长主要得益于与他人的互动。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“She used to care a lot about her appearance. But later, she learned to accept her own uniqueness. This is shown in the words: “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” (她过去很在乎自己的外表。但后来，她学会了接受自己的独特性。这表现在：‘我很高兴我生活在一个有十月的世界里。’)”可知，安妮曾经很在意自己的外表，但后来她学会了接受自己的独特性。而This后的句子是在解释安妮的这一态度的变化，即她学会了接受自己并感到快乐。因此，This指的是安妮态度的变化，选项C“The change in her attitude. (她态度的转变)”符合题意。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段中“Anne of Green Gables is a book written by the popular writer Lucy Maud Montgomery.

New students at Eton College can’t bring their own phones and will get “dumb” Nokia phones that can only make calls and send texts. Also, about two-thirds of high schools now have rules against using smartphones during school hours. But when we grow up, is it okay to use social media for fun in our free time? A study in April found that spending 20 minutes on social media or watching YouTube videos can help reduce stress. And nearly 60% of people said they felt happy using Instagram. However, we need to know the difference between real relaxation and just scrolling (浏览) through social media without a purpose. Spending time with family, enjoying nature, or reading a book gives us true relaxation and makes us feel good. But looking at our phones without thinking can make us feel bad. We should also be aware of the long-term effects of always wanting fun and excitement from our smartphones. A psychiatrist (精神病学家) named Anna Lembke says in her book that always seeking stimulation from our phones can make us addicted, and it’s harder to enjoy simpler things. Moreover, never taking a break from this constant stimulation means we miss out on the benefits of having a quiet mind that helps us be creative and think deeply. Remember, if you are not paying for it then you are the product. The marketplace of attention is constantly fine-tuning the ways they appeal to our brain. We must learn to get more creative and intentional about the ways we choose to relax and perhaps, even, to turn to some good old-fashioned boredom. 27. What is special about “dumb” Nokia phones in paragraph 1? A. It can’t speak at all. B. It fails to offer games. C. Its users are unable to contact others. D. Its users are denied access to Internet. 28 What does the author want to tell us in paragraph 3? A. Positive feelings provided by social media. B. Benefits of relaxation for time-poor adults. C. Ways to tell true relaxation from false ones. D. Popularity of Instagram among adult users. 29. What is Anna Lembke’s view on endlessly seeking stimulation from smartphones? A. It boosts brain development. B. It offers relaxation for brain. C. It leads to addiction and creativity. D. It blocks joy from less exciting things. 30. What does the first sentence in the last paragraph imply? A. Free services cost nothing. B. Attention is a free resource. C. Users are being marketed to. D. Products are always paid for. 【答案】27. D 28. C 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述探讨了智能手机的利弊，并且强调让我们区分真正的放松和无目的浏览社交媒体，无休止的从手机中寻求刺激会让我们上瘾，很难享受简单的快乐。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“New students at Eton College can’t bring their own phones and will get “dumb” Nokia phones that can only make calls and send texts. (伊顿公学（Eton College）的新生不能自带手机，只能使用只能打电话和发短信的“愚蠢”诺基亚手机)”可知“dumb (愚蠢)”诺基亚手机只能打电话和发短信，也就是不能访问互联网，故选D。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, we need to know the difference between real relaxation and just scrolling (浏览) through social media without a purpose. Spending time with family, enjoying nature, or reading a book gives us true relaxation and makes us feel good. But looking at our phones without thinking can make us feel bad. (然而，我们需要知道真正的放松和只是毫无目的地刷社交媒体之间的区别。花时间和家人在一起，享受大自然，或者读一本书，都能给我们真正的放松，让我们感觉良好。但是不加思考地看手机会让我们感觉很糟糕)”可知本段讲述真正的放松和只是毫无目的地刷社交媒体之间的区别，所以推断作者要告诉我们区分真正的放松和虚假的放松的方法。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“We should also be aware of the long-term effects of always wanting fun and excitement from our smartphones. A psychiatrist (精神病学家) named Anna Lembke says in her book that always seeking stimulation from our phones can make us addicted, and it’s harder to enjoy simpler things. (我们还应该意识到总是想从智能手机中获得乐趣和刺激的长期影响。一位名叫Anna Lembke的精神病学家在她的书中说，总是从手机中寻求刺激会让我们上瘾，很难享受简单的东西)”可推知Anna Lembke认为无休止地从智能手机中寻求刺激会阻碍我们享受简单的东西，也就是阻止了简单的事情所带来的快乐，故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Remember, if you are not paying for it then you are the product. The marketplace of attention is constantly fine-tuning the ways they appeal to our brain. We must learn to get more creative and intentional about the ways we choose to relax and perhaps, even, to turn to some good old-fashioned boredom. (记住，如果你不为它付费，那么你就是产品。注意力市场一直在微调它们吸引我们大脑的方式。我们必须学会在选择放松的方式时更有创意、更有意识，甚至可能转向一些老式的无聊方式)” 可推知如果你不为之付费，那你就是产品，暗示用户会成为被市场推销的对象，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。 You have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS, not only would you be lost, you’d feel lost. ____31____?

Understand the layout (布局) of the city Many cities are arranged in a specific pattern. Washington, D. C., for example, is divided into four sections and has streets that run three ways: north-south, east-west and diagonally (对角地). ____34____. In Ogden, Utah, the north-south streets are named after U. S. presidents and are arranged in order of time. ____35____ This is especially helpful when street names are abstract and don’t follow a logical order.

Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up. Then see if you can make it back home without a GPS from your destination. (如果你时间不紧张，关闭你的GPS，试着自己找路。下次散步时，走一条你没走过的路，看看它会通向哪里。然后看看能否不用GPS从目的地回到家)”可知，下文应是关闭GPS自己找路的目的，所以F选项“目标是迷失方向，不带地图在世界中移动”符合语境，紧密承接上文。故选F。 【33题详解】 根据上文“Pick a few landmarks in town to help locate yourself. (选择镇上的几个地标来帮助确定自己的位置)”可知，此处是让我们选择地标来确定位置，并且下文“like a big sign, a highway, a tall building or a bridge, so it can serve as a better clue to location. (比如一个大招牌、一条高速公路、一栋高楼或一座桥，这样可以作为更好的定位线索)”给出了具体的地标例子，所以设空处应是告诉我们要选什么样的地标，所以B选项“理想的路标是大而远的”符合语境，承上启下。故选B。 【34题详解】 根据上文“Many cities are arranged in a specific pattern. Washington, D. C., for example, is divided into four sections and has streets that run three ways: north-south, east-west and diagonall (对角地). (许多城市都按照特定的模式布局。例如，华盛顿特区分为四个区域，街道呈三向分布：南北、东西和对角地)”可知，下文是关于其他城市的布局，E选项“其他城市有特殊命名规则的街道”符合语境，并且紧扣下文的例子。故选E。 【35题详解】 设空处为本段小标题。根据下文“This is especially helpful when street names are abstract and don’t follow a logical order. As you guide your way without a map, look around and use stories and memory devices to remember the details of your surroundings. (当街道名称抽象且不遵循逻辑顺序时，这尤其有用。在没有地图的情况下引导你前进时，环顾四周并使用故事和记忆工具来记住周围环境的细节)”可知，本段让我们使用故事和记忆工具来记住周围环境的细节。所以D选项“使用记忆技巧来记住你所在的位置”符合本段主旨。故选D。 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。 Suzanne Heywood was just seven years old when her parents pulled her out of school to go on a three-year voyage around the world.

But a week ago, he was hit by a high ball from Travis Barnes, a member of the opposing team — Giants. He was sent to the hospital. Though the doctor said he was fine, he was still having a shadow (阴影). “I don’t want to push you,” Coach said, “but you’ re our best hitter. We really want you to come back in the game.” Matt wanted to say no, but Coach looked so hopeful-and Matt was running out of excuses. The memory of being hit was still fresh, making him frightened. Matt’s thoughts were interrupted by George, the team’s second-best hitter. He sat down beside him. “I’m glad you’re playing the Giants again on Saturday. I can’t wait to see Travis’s face when you walk up to the field,” he went on cheerfully. “It’ll be payback time.” Matt realized that there was no way out. If he didn’t face Travis, everyone would think Matt was a coward. Saturday came soon. Matt took a deep breath and headed for the field. The crowd shouted encouragement. But the first pitch (投球) caught Matt off-guard (不提防). He jumped back, worried to be hit again. A roar of laughter went through the crowd. Travis was probably laughing at him too, Matt thought to himself. But then it seemed there was something wrong with Travis. He made so many mistakes that the Giants’ coach had to call time-out(暂停). Even if there was a talk with the coach, Travis’s skills were declining. Matt swung the bat and the ball dropped in front of the center fielder. Riley raced home, beating a close throw. Payback! Matt’s team scored a point and then another two. Soon they won the game! The crowd cheered. Matt stood at first base, relieved. But he slightly felt there was something wrong with Travis. 注意：1.续写词数应为80左右； 2.开头已给出。 After the game, Matt found Travis on the baseball field looking sad. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: After the game, Matt found Travis on the baseball field looking sad. Approaching him, Matt noticed Travis’s distress. “You okay?” he asked gently. Travis sighed, admitting his poor performance. “I’ve been off since that hit,” he confessed. Matt reassured him, “It was an accident; everyone has bad days.” Travis looked relieved, acknowledging his mistake and impact on Matt. “I didn’t mean to affect you,” Travis said. Matt smiled, easing the tension. “It’s in the past. We both love this game.” They shared a moment of mutual respect. Travis stood up, proposing they play without pressure next time. “Deal,” Matt agreed, feeling a bond with his former rival, both ready to move forward with respect and understanding. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述的是Matt，作为队里最出色的击球手，在一次比赛中被对方球员Travis意外击中后心存阴影。尽管医生检查无碍，Matt仍对重返赛场感到恐惧。教练和队友鼓励他复出，面对内心的恐惧，Matt最终决定在周六的比赛中再次面对Travis。比赛时，Matt一开始因害怕而失态，但随后成功击球帮助队伍赢得比赛，不过Matt隐约觉得Travis的状态似乎有问题，后来在球场找到了Travis。 【详解】1.段落续写： 由提示的首句内容“比赛结束后，Matt发现Travis在棒球场上看起来很伤心。”可知，此处描述的是Matt如何安慰Travis的，并在最后两人化解了误会，建立了新的理解和友谊。 2.续写线索：比赛结束——Matt安慰Travis——承认错误——化解误会——建立新关系 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走近：approaching/walk up to/move toward ②注意到：noticed/spot ③起身：stood up/rise to one’s feet/lift oneself up 情绪类 ①悲伤：distress/sadness/grief ②紧张：tension/stress/intensity 【点睛】[高分句型1] Travis sighed, admitting his poor performance.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] Travis stood up, proposing they play without pressure next time.（运用了现在分词短语作状语以及省略连接词that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 宝安区2024-2025学年第一学期期末调研测试卷 高二 英语 注意事项： 1.答题前，请将姓名、班级和学校用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔填写在答题卡指定的位置上，并正确粘贴条形码。 2.作答选择题时，选出每题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目答案标号的信息点框涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案。作答非选择题时，用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔把答案写在答题卡指定区域内，写在本试卷或草稿纸上，其答案一律无效。 3.本试卷共10页，满分130分。考试时间120分钟。 4.考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第一部分 语言知识 (满分15分) 阅读下列各题，从每小题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 1.

It has been loved by many generations of readers because its story is warm and the characters are so lively. When you start reading it, it feels like you go to the beautiful Prince Edward Island in Canada. On this island, there lives Anne Shirley, an orphan girl. She is very creative but also feels lonely sometimes. Anne often has some unique and imaginative ideas. For example, she can turn an ordinary tea party into a magical adventure just by using her own ideas. She also likes to share her stories and thoughts with others. This makes the people around her very happy. The story starts with Anne being adopted by Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert. They actually wanted to adopt a boy to help with farm work, but they got Anne by mistake. However, Anne brings a lot of active energy to their lives. One great thing about this novel is that it shows how Anne changes and grows. The author shows Anne’s journey from childhood to young adulthood through her different experiences, like making friends, falling in love, and dealing with loss. This story can not only entertain readers but also teach them some valuable lessons about life. What’s more, it tells us that learning is not just about schoolwork. It also includes growing morally and emotionally. We can clearly see this from Anne’s experiences. Her getting along with her new family and community, together with her teachers’ patience, her friends’ friendship, and her adoptive family’s love, all help her grow. This shows the importance of education in daily life and relationships. The author also writes about the change in Anne’s attitude. She used to care a lot about her appearance. But later, she learned to accept her own uniqueness. This is shown in the words: “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” These words show her happiness with simple things in life and her joy of being herself. Readers all around the world like this novel because it has a lasting appeal. In a recent survey, more than 80% of readers said they were deeply touched by Anne’s story. Mark Twain said Anne was “the dearest and most delightful child since Alice.” Some scholars like Zhou Guoping have noticed that Anne has two precious qualities: a sense of wonder about life and an optimistic imagination. Bianca Schulze, the founder of The Children’s Book Review, says that readers are closely connected to Anne’s spirit of perseverance and optimism. This can really give people inspiration. When I close the book, the vivid scenery of Prince Edward Island and the deep thoughts about human nature and life remain in my mind. Like Anne, each of us has dreams and also faces difficulties. We all hope to find a place where we belong. This novel teaches us how to face life. Even when reality makes us feel a little down, we should not be afraid. Just as Anne might say, “Isn’t it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?” This message makes the book very valuable for anyone who starts their journey of self-discovery. 23.

New students at Eton College can’t bring their own phones and will get “dumb” Nokia phones that can only make calls and send texts. Also, about two-thirds of high schools now have rules against using smartphones during school hours. But when we grow up, is it okay to use social media for fun in our free time? A study in April found that spending 20 minutes on social media or watching YouTube videos can help reduce stress. And nearly 60% of people said they felt happy using Instagram. However, we need to know the difference between real relaxation and just scrolling (浏览) through social media without a purpose. Spending time with family, enjoying nature, or reading a book gives us true relaxation and makes us feel good. But looking at our phones without thinking can make us feel bad. We should also be aware of the long-term effects of always wanting fun and excitement from our smartphones. A psychiatrist (精神病学家) named Anna Lembke says in her book that always seeking stimulation from our phones can make us addicted, and it’s harder to enjoy simpler things. Moreover, never taking a break from this constant stimulation means we miss out on the benefits of having a quiet mind that helps us be creative and think deeply. Remember, if you are not paying for it then you are the product. The marketplace of attention is constantly fine-tuning the ways they appeal to our brain. We must learn to get more creative and intentional about the ways we choose to relax and perhaps, even, to turn to some good old-fashioned boredom. 27. What is special about “dumb” Nokia phones in paragraph 1? A. It can’t speak at all. B. It fails to offer games. C. Its users are unable to contact others. D. Its users are denied access to Internet. 28. What does the author want to tell us in paragraph 3? A. Positive feelings provided by social media. B. Benefits of relaxation for time-poor adults. C. Ways to tell true relaxation from false ones. D. Popularity of Instagram among adult users. 29. What is Anna Lembke’s view on endlessly seeking stimulation from smartphones? A. It boosts brain development. B. It offers relaxation for brain. C. It leads to addiction and creativity. D. It blocks joy from less exciting things. 30. What does the first sentence in the last paragraph imply? A. Free services cost nothing. B. Attention is a free resource. C. Users are being marketed to. D. Products are always paid for. 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。 You have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS, not only would you be lost, you’d feel lost. ____31____?

But a week ago, he was hit by a high ball from Travis Barnes, a member of the opposing team — Giants. He was sent to the hospital. Though the doctor said he was fine, he was still having a shadow (阴影). “I don’t want to push you,” Coach said, “but you’ re our best hitter. We really want you to come back in the game.” Matt wanted to say no, but Coach looked so hopeful-and Matt was running out of excuses. The memory of being hit was still fresh, making him frightened. Matt’s thoughts were interrupted by George, the team’s second-best hitter. He sat down beside him. “I’m glad you’re playing the Giants again on Saturday. I can’t wait to see Travis’s face when you walk up to the field,” he went on cheerfully. “It’ll be payback time.” Matt realized that there was no way out. If he didn’t face Travis, everyone would think Matt was a coward. Saturday came soon. Matt took a deep breath and headed for the field. The crowd shouted encouragement. But the first pitch (投球) caught Matt off-guard (不提防). He jumped back, worried to be hit again. A roar of laughter went through the crowd. Travis was probably laughing at him too, Matt thought to himself. But then it seemed there was something wrong with Travis. He made so many mistakes that the Giants’ coach had to call time-out(暂停). Even if there was a talk with the coach, Travis’s skills were declining. Matt swung the bat and the ball dropped in front of the center fielder. Riley raced home, beating a close throw. Payback! Matt’s team scored a point and then another two. Soon they won the game! The crowd cheered. Matt stood at first base, relieved. But he slightly felt there was something wrong with Travis. 注意：1.续写词数应为80左右； 2.开头已给出。 After the game, Matt found Travis on the baseball field looking sad. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
