The following food books are bursting with delicious food, as well as entertaining and engaging storytelling. Pierre Thiam’s latest book aims to share everyday, easy-to-cook recipes like baked ginger-chili plantain kelewele. He explains how so many dishes and ingredients from the American South and other regions can trace their origin to West Africa. The 80 recipes are accessible and present a range of traditional and modern takes on the cuisine. Fuchsia Dunlop’s book examines classic Chinese dishes, like mapo tofu, soup dumplings and Dongpo pork. This book includes history, philosophy, cooking techniques, and Dunlop’s on-the-ground research conducted over three decades to present a fascinating exploration of this ever-changing cuisine. Tamar Adler seeks to make leftovers more appealing and lower food waste in the process with her latest book, which contains around 1,500 recipes. This isn’t what you’d call a beautiful coffee table-style cookbook — it’s practical and the creative secrets within are truly mind-blowing. Natasha Pickowicz is an innovative chef. More Than Cake is her first cookbook, full of invaluable tips like how to build a layer (层) cake. Aside from great baking recipes, this cookbook tries to live up to its name by sharing how baking can provide so much more than just tasty sweets — it can give community, purpose, joy and love. 26.

B When I first met Nao Junior, he was in his 40s and one of only nine members of his Indigenous(土著的) group, Great Andamanese, who still spoke the idiom of his ancestors. As a language specialist, I had researched more than 80 Indian languages. I was on the islands to document their Indigenous voices before they faded into whispers. Words in this language consisted of two classes: free and bound. The free words were all nouns that referred to the environment and its inhabitants, such as ra for “pig”. They could occur alone. The bound words were nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs that always existed with markers indicating a relation to other objects, events or states. The markers came from seven zones of the body and were attached to a root word to describe concepts such as “inside”, “outside”, “upper” and “lower”. For example, the morpheme(词素) er-, which qualified most anything having to do with an outer body part, could be stuck to -cho to yield ercho, meaning “head”. Just as a head, a bound word, could not conceptually exist on its own, the mode and effect of an action could not be divided from the verb describing the action. Great Andamanese had no words for agriculture but a great many for hunting and fishing, mainly with a bow and arrow. Thus, the root word shile, meaning “to aim”, had several versions: utshile, to aim from above; arashile, to aim from a distance; and eshile, aiming to make a hole with a sharp object. The studies established that the language seems to be truly old in origin. In a multistage process of development, words describing diverse body parts had changed into morphemes referring to different zones and combined with content words to yield meaning. The structure alone provides an insight into an ancient worldview in which the macrocosm(宏观世界) reflects the microcosm, and everything that is or that happens inseparably connects to everything else. 29. What is the purpose of the author’s stay on the islands? A. To meet with an old friend. B. To teach Indigenous idioms. C. To record an ancient language. D. To trace her ancestors. 30. “Aim at a pig’s head from afar” in Great Andamanese may be ______. A Arashile raercho B. Arashile ercho C. Eshile ercho D. Eshile raercho 31. What can we infer from the verbs in Great Andamanese? A. A verb could describe more than one action. B. Some of the verbs could be used on their own. C. The locals probably live off seafood and meat. D. The tools used in people’s daily life are diverse. 32. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Great Andamanese is the origin of multiple languages. B. Great Andamanese is a doorway to the ancient wisdom. C. Great Andamanese tells the development of the community. D. Human body shapes Great Andamanese’s unique worldview. C Without shiny black solar panels (太阳能板) on the roof, the residents in an apartment building in Illinois are enjoying the benefits of “community solar” — a program in which residents can buy electricity from nearby solar farms, reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and receiving discounts on their electric bills. The solar energy in community solar doesn’t actually flow into your home, but flows into your area’s power grid (电网), providing electricity to homes and businesses in your region, and you get the benefits of government solar rewards in the form of lower electricity bills. Among those signing up for the program is Dickerson, 73, of Oak Park, Illinois. “Try it; you’ll like it,” he said. “You’ll save money, and you’ll feel good about saving the planet — at least a little bit.” Proudly showing charts of their electricity costs in a recent interview, Dickerson and his fellow members of the community green committee, said they’re all paying less with community solar for their individual homes as well as the community’s common space. Community solar was pioneered in the mid-2000s as a way to bring clean energy to the many American households without access to solar panels for various reasons. “Community solar is about to boost everywhere in terms of access,” said Nicole Steele, a senior advisor in the U. S. Department of Energy. “It’s just another way to be part of the clean energy transformation and see the actual benefits.” Dickerson and his neighbour Johnson have been protecting the planet since childhood, such as leaving no litter in the forest and sorting recyclables. Therefore, they found it easy to accept community solar. Now, the building’s green newsletter, edited by Johnson, is trumpeting community solar savings. “As a parent and grandparent, it’s kind of like a heritage,” Johnson said of this work. “How could I do something that’s bad for the world in which my grandchildren are going to live?” 33. How does community solar work? A. By directly transporting energy to households. B. By equipping residents’ rooftops with panels. C By storing electricity in nearby solar farms. D. By providing electricity through the power grid. 34. Why did Dickerson and the committee members sign up for the program? A. To prevent greenhouse gas emission. B. To reduce cost and help save the planet. C. To experience a more convenient energy. D. To get rewards from the local government. 35. What is Nicole Steele’s attitude to community solar? A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Conservative. D. Approving. 36. What does the underlined word “trumpeting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Admitting shyly. B. Stating critically. C. Explaining secretly. D. Announcing proudly. D For most of human history, people raised crops and livestock to feed their households rather than to sell them for profit. This began to shift after the Industrial Revolution, which saw the rise of plantation farming. Industrial farming not only increased the crop-growing areas, but changed the techniques used by farmers. Instead of switching the crops that were grown on a field each year, entire plantations would be devoted to a single crop. This approach and intensive modes of farming led to destruction of local biodiversity and land worsening — within years, fields would cease to produce crops. Plantations of the 18th and 19th centuries were a “get rich quick plan” rather than a long-term investment. Once a field became unusable, plantation owners would simply move on to new land. Up to the end of the 19th century, wide areas of our planet were still not claimed by global modernity. But today, while we are quickly running out of vegetative (覆盖植被的) land, this mindset continues. “Farmers still hold the view that land is cheap and limitless,” said Crystal Davis from the World Resources Institute. “Most of them just cut down more trees, when new land is needed.” “To meet our ecological goals, we need to stop turning natural ecosystems to farmland,” Davis said. “We can achieve this in part by bringing back the land’s ecological wholeness and productivity.” Davis points to the 20×20 initiative (倡议), which has seen 18 South American and Caribbean countries commit to recovering 50m hectares of land by 2030. It includes a number of projects aimed at introducing agroforestry (混农林业) practices to cocoa and coffee farms in Colombia and Nicaragua. There farmers are encouraged to grow crops while introducing more trees to their land. 37. What can we learn about industrial farming? A. It existed for most of human history. B. It changed farming methods. C. It increased crop production steadily. D. It reduced crop-planting areas. 38. Which of the following do most farmers do at present? A. Abuse the land for quick profit. B. Desert wide areas of plantations. C. Adopt modern technology to farm. D. Plant more trees to satisfy global need. 39. What can be inferred about the 20×20 initiative? A. It advocates eco-friendly farming. B. It involves countries around the world. C. It encourages farmers to develop more land. D. It focuses on increasing cocoa and coffee output. 40. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. How Can We Take up Farming? B. How Can We Feed the World? C. Meeting Our Ecological Goals D. Shifting to Regenerative Agriculture 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的七个选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Culture shock is the feeling of losing direction experienced by someone suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture and way of life. ____41____.

They absolutely didn’t know how important that day, that train ride was to me! I was on my way to an interview for what could have been the opportunity of a lifetime. I threw both my hat and my art case down in depression, and sat down on the nearest chair, wiping (擦掉) the sweat from my face and breathing heavily. I would have to wait a whole day for the next train, and by then my appointment with the gallery owner would have given up on me. Perhaps it was for the best. It was, after all, the first time in 40 years anyone had shown such an interest in my art. Maybe if the gallery owner had seen all my paintings, he would have changed his mind about offering me space on his walls. Disappointment filled my soul. Should I dial the gallery and get an interview on a different day? But Pierre Gianni was the owner of the most well-known gallery in New York City. Why would he give a rare second chance to an elderly nobody when he had the newest, coolest young artists to choose from? Come to think of it, perhaps these insecurities were the very reason I had never been offered a show before. I was too afraid to try. I found countless excuses not to offer my work up to be seen and perhaps criticized. I told myself it would hurt too much if I failed, but the truth was that I had never tried. Finally, I gathered all my courage to dial the gallery, only to find my antique cell phone had broken down. It was at the very moment that I was in total despair and decided to go home. 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。 Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning I got to the gallery on time. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 深圳市第二实验学校2024—2025学年度(高二年级) 第一学期 期末考试英语学科试题 说明：1、全卷共 10 页，满分为 130 分，考试时间为 120 分钟。 2、答卷前，考生必须按要求填写自己的姓名、学号、班级等信息。 3、客观题、主观题答案均填写在答题卡上。 一、语言知识：单项选择（共25小题，每小题1分，满分25分） 1.

As a language specialist, I had researched more than 80 Indian languages. I was on the islands to document their Indigenous voices before they faded into whispers. Words in this language consisted of two classes: free and bound. The free words were all nouns that referred to the environment and its inhabitants, such as ra for “pig”. They could occur alone. The bound words were nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs that always existed with markers indicating a relation to other objects, events or states. The markers came from seven zones of the body and were attached to a root word to describe concepts such as “inside”, “outside”, “upper” and “lower”. For example, the morpheme(词素) er-, which qualified most anything having to do with an outer body part, could be stuck to -cho to yield ercho, meaning “head”. Just as a head, a bound word, could not conceptually exist on its own, the mode and effect of an action could not be divided from the verb describing the action. Great Andamanese had no words for agriculture but a great many for hunting and fishing, mainly with a bow and arrow. Thus, the root word shile, meaning “to aim”, had several versions: utshile, to aim from above; arashile, to aim from a distance; and eshile, aiming to make a hole with a sharp object. The studies established that the language seems to be truly old in origin. In a multistage process of development, words describing diverse body parts had changed into morphemes referring to different zones and combined with content words to yield meaning. The structure alone provides an insight into an ancient worldview in which the macrocosm(宏观世界) reflects the microcosm, and everything that is or that happens inseparably connects to everything else. 29. What is the purpose of the author’s stay on the islands? A. To meet with an old friend. B. To teach Indigenous idioms. C. To record an ancient language. D. To trace her ancestors. 30. “Aim at a pig’s head from afar” in Great Andamanese may be ______. A. Arashile raercho B. Arashile ercho C. Eshile ercho D. Eshile raercho 31. What can we infer from the verbs in Great Andamanese? A. A verb could describe more than one action. B. Some of the verbs could be used on their own. C. The locals probably live off seafood and meat. D. The tools used in people’s daily life are diverse. 32. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Great Andamanese is the origin of multiple languages. B. Great Andamanese is a doorway to the ancient wisdom. C. Great Andamanese tells the development of the community. D. Human body shapes Great Andamanese’s unique worldview. 【答案】29. C 30. A 31. C 32. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过描述大安达曼人语言中的词汇分类、词根和词缀的组合方式，展现了这种语言背后蕴含的丰富文化和历史内涵。同时，强调了对土著语言和文化遗产的保护和重视的重要性。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“As a language specialist, I had researched more than 80 Indian languages.I was on the islands to document their Indigenous voices before they faded into whispers.(作为一名语言专家，我研究了80多种印度语言。我在岛上记录土著居民的声音，直到他它们渐渐消失。)”可知，作者在岛上停留的目的是记录一种古老的语言。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“such as ra for “pig”(比如ra代表“猪”) ”和“ercho, meaning “head”(ercho意思是“头”) ”和第三段的“arashile, to aim from a distance(Arashile表示“从远处瞄准”)”可知，“Aim at a pig’s head from afar (从远处瞄准猪头)”在大安达曼语中对应的是Arashile raercho。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“Great Andamanese had no words for agriculture but a great many for hunting and fishing. (大安达曼人没有关于农业的词汇，但有很多关于狩猎和捕鱼的词汇。)”可知，当地人可能以海鲜和肉类为生。故选C。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“The studies established that the language seems to be truly old in origin. In a multistage process of development, words describing diverse body parts had changed into morphemes referring to different zones and combined with content words to yield meaning. The structure alone provides an insight into an ancient worldview in which the macrocosm reflects the microcosm, and everything that is or that happens inseparably connects to everything else.(这些研究证实，这种语言的起源似乎真的很古老。在一个多阶段的发展过程中，描述不同身体部位的词语变成了指代不同区域的语素，并与实义词结合产生意义。这个结构本身就提供了一种对古代世界观的洞察，在这种世界观中，宏观世界反映了微观世界，所有存在或发生的事情都与其他事物不可分割地联系在一起。)”可知，本段主要讲的是通过研究大安达曼语可以发现古代的世界观，即打开古老智慧的大门。故选B。 C Without shiny black solar panels (太阳能板) on the roof, the residents in an apartment building in Illinois are enjoying the benefits of “community solar” — a program in which residents can buy electricity from nearby solar farms, reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and receiving discounts on their electric bills. The solar energy in community solar doesn’t actually flow into your home, but flows into your area’s power grid (电网), providing electricity to homes and businesses in your region, and you get the benefits of government solar rewards in the form of lower electricity bills. Among those signing up for the program is Dickerson, 73, of Oak Park, Illinois. “Try it; you’ll like it,” he said. “You’ll save money, and you’ll feel good about saving the planet — at least a little bit.” Proudly showing charts of their electricity costs in a recent interview, Dickerson and his fellow members of the community green committee, said they’re all paying less with community solar for their individual homes as well as the community’s common space. Community solar was pioneered in the mid-2000s as a way to bring clean energy to the many American households without access to solar panels for various reasons. “Community solar is about to boost everywhere in terms of access,” said Nicole Steele, a senior advisor in the U. S. Department of Energy. “It’s just another way to be part of the clean energy transformation and see the actual benefits.” Dickerson and his neighbour Johnson have been protecting the planet since childhood, such as leaving no litter in the forest and sorting recyclables. Therefore, they found it easy to accept community solar. Now, the building’s green newsletter, edited by Johnson, is trumpeting community solar savings. “As a parent and grandparent, it’s kind of like a heritage,” Johnson said of this work. “How could I do something that’s bad for the world in which my grandchildren are going to live?” 33. How does community solar work? A. By directly transporting energy to households. B. By equipping residents’ rooftops with panels. C. By storing electricity in nearby solar farms. D. By providing electricity through the power grid. 34. Why did Dickerson and the committee members sign up for the program? A. To prevent greenhouse gas emission. B. To reduce cost and help save the planet. C To experience a more convenient energy. D. To get rewards from the local government. 35. What is Nicole Steele’s attitude to community solar? A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Conservative. D. Approving. 36. What does the underlined word “trumpeting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Admitting shyly. B. Stating critically. C. Explaining secretly. D. Announcing proudly. 【答案】33. D 34. B 35. D 36. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍美国伊利诺伊州的“社区太阳能”项目，可以减少温室气体的排放，居民也能享受电费折扣。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The solar energy in community solar doesn’t actually flow into your home, but flows into your area’s power grid (电网), providing electricity to homes and businesses in your region(社区太阳能中的太阳能实际上并不会流入你的家庭，而是流入你所在地区的电网，为你所在地区的家庭和企业提供电力)”可知，社区太阳能通过流入所在地区的电网为该地区的家庭和企业提供电力，故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“‘You’ll save money, and you’ll feel good about saving the planet-at least a little bit.’ Proudly showing charts of their electricity costs in a recent interview, Dickerson and his fellow members of the community green committee, said they’re all paying less with community solar for their individual homes as well as the community’s common space.(“你会省钱，而且你会为拯救地球而感到高兴——至少有那么一点点。”在最近的一次采访中，Dickerson和他的社区绿色委员会成员自豪地展示了他们的电力成本图表，他们说，他们为个人住宅和社区公共空间支付的社区太阳能费用都更少)”可知，Dickerson和社区成员报名社区太阳能是为了减少电费并帮助保护地球，故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中““Community solar is about to boost everywhere in terms of access, ” said Nicole Steele, a senior advisor in the U. S. Department of Energy. “It’s just another way to be part of the clean energy transformation and see the actual benefits. ”(“社区太阳能将在各地普及。”美国能源部高级顾问Nicole Steele说。“这只是参与清洁能源转型并看到实际效益的另一种方式。”)”可知，Nicole Steele对社区太阳能持赞成态度，故选D。 【36题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“As a parent and grandparent, it’s kind of like a heritage(作为父母和祖父母，这有点像一种遗产)”以及“How could I do something that’s bad for the world in which my grandchildren are going to live?(我怎么能做一些对我孙子将要生活的世界有害的事情呢？)”可知，Johnson认为自己在做对子孙后代有益的事情，故应是用自豪的语气说，推测划线单词trumpeting意为“宣扬”，故选D。 D For most of human history, people raised crops and livestock to feed their households rather than to sell them for profit. This began to shift after the Industrial Revolution, which saw the rise of plantation farming. Industrial farming not only increased the crop-growing areas, but changed the techniques used by farmers. Instead of switching the crops that were grown on a field each year, entire plantations would be devoted to a single crop. This approach and intensive modes of farming led to destruction of local biodiversity and land worsening — within years, fields would cease to produce crops. Plantations of the 18th and 19th centuries were a “get rich quick plan” rather than a long-term investment. Once a field became unusable, plantation owners would simply move on to new land. Up to the end of the 19th century, wide areas of our planet were still not claimed by global modernity. But today, while we are quickly running out of vegetative (覆盖植被的) land, this mindset continues. “Farmers still hold the view that land is cheap and limitless,” said Crystal Davis from the World Resources Institute. “Most of them just cut down more trees, when new land is needed.” “To meet our ecological goals, we need to stop turning natural ecosystems to farmland,” Davis said. “We can achieve this in part by bringing back the land’s ecological wholeness and productivity.” Davis points to the 20×20 initiative (倡议), which has seen 18 South American and Caribbean countries commit to recovering 50m hectares of land by 2030. It includes a number of projects aimed at introducing agroforestry (混农林业) practices to cocoa and coffee farms in Colombia and Nicaragua. There farmers are encouraged to grow crops while introducing more trees to their land. 37. What can we learn about industrial farming? A. It existed for most of human history. B. It changed farming methods. C. It increased crop production steadily. D. It reduced crop-planting areas. 38. Which of the following do most farmers do at present? A. Abuse the land for quick profit. B. Desert wide areas of plantations. C. Adopt modern technology to farm. D. Plant more trees to satisfy global need. 39. What can be inferred about the 20×20 initiative? A. It advocates eco-friendly farming. B. It involves countries around the world. C. It encourages farmers to develop more land. D. It focuses on increasing cocoa and coffee output. 40. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. How Can We Take up Farming? B. How Can We Feed the World? C. Meeting Our Ecological Goals D. Shifting to Regenerative Agriculture 【答案】37. B 38. A 39. A 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了从工业化农业带来的不良影响和转向可再生农业的过程。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Industrial farming not only increased the crop-growing areas, but changed the techniques used by farmers.(工业化农业不仅增加了作物种植面积，而且改变了农民耕作的方法。)”可知，工业化农业改变了农民耕作的方法。故选B项。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Plantations of the 18th and 19th centuries were a “get rich quick plan” rather than a long- term investment. Once a field became unusable, plantation owners would simply move on to new land. Up to the end of the 19h century, wide areas of our planet were still not claimed by global modernity. But today, while we are quickly running out of vegetative (覆盖植被的) land, this mindset continues.(18世纪和19世纪的种植园是一个“快速致富计划”，而不是长期投资。一旦一块土地无法使用，种植园主就会转移到新的土地上。直到19世纪末，我们这个星球的广大地区仍然没有被全球现代性所宣称。但今天，虽然我们的植物地正在迅速耗尽，但这种心态仍在继续。)”可知，直到今天，人们依然还是有这种“为了赚钱而消耗土地”的想法。故选A项。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Davis points to the 20×20 initiative (倡议), which has seen 18 South American and Caribbean countries commit to recovering 50m hectares of land by 2030. It includes a number of projects aimed at introducing agroforestry (混农林业) practices to cocoa and coffee farms in Colombia and Nicaragua. There farmers are encouraged to grow crops while introducing more trees to their land. (戴维斯提到了20×20倡议，18个南美和加勒比国家承诺到2030年恢复5000万公顷土地。它包括一些旨在将农林复合做法引入哥伦比亚和尼加拉瓜的可可和咖啡农场的项目。在那里，农民被鼓励种植农作物，同时在他们的土地上种植更多的树木。)”可知，20×20倡议不仅承诺到2030年恢复5000万公顷土地，还引入了混农林业。由此可推知，该倡议倡导环境友好型农业。故选A项。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。阅读文章可知，文章第一段提到工业革命后农业开始转向种植园；第二、三段重点介绍了工业化农业带来的不良影响；第四、五段重点介绍了转向环境友好型农业种植。由此可知，D项“Shifting to Regenerative Agriculture(转向可再生农业)”最能概括全文。故选D项。 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的七个选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Culture shock is the feeling of losing direction experienced by someone suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture and way of life. ____41____. This guide will inform you of the different stages of culture shock, helping you be better mentally prepared. 1. The Honeymoon Stage The first stage of culture shock is often overwhelmingly positive during which travelers become fascinated with the language, people and food in their new surroundings. ____42____. On short trips, the honeymoon phase may take over the entire experience as the later effects of culture shock don’t have time to set in. 2. The Frustration Stage Frustration may be the most difficult stage of culture shock and is probably familiar to anyone who has lived abroad or who travels frequently. At this stage, the stress of not understanding gestures, signs and the language sets in and miscommunications may be happening frequently. Small things — losing keys, missing the bus or not being able easily order food in a restaurant-may trigger frustration. ____43____. These are common phenomenon that people tend to see as natural reactions. 3. The Adjustment Stage ____44____. Navigation becomes easier, friends and communities of support are established and details of local languages may become more recognizable during the adjustment stage. People are comfortable with the cultures, people, food and languages of new environments. 4. The Acceptance Stage Generally — though sometimes weeks, months or years after wrestling with the emotional stages outlined above — the final stage of culture shock is acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean that new cultures or languages are fully grasped. ____45____. During the acceptance stage, travelers have the familiarity and are able to draw together the resources they need to feel at ease. A. It will fade out eventually as a result. B. It can be a difficult and overwhelming time. C. Travelers interpret culture shocks in unexpected ways. D. Then, depression and homesickness are bound to follow. E. People realize a complete understanding isn’t necessary. F. The experience seems like the greatest decision ever made. G. Frustration often moderates as travelers begin feeling familiar. 【答案】41. B 42. F 43. D 44. G 45. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了文化冲击以及它的四个阶段。 【41题详解】 根据上文“Culture shock is the feeling of losing direction experienced by someone suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture and way of life. (文化冲击是指某人突然适应一种不熟悉的文化和生活方式而失去方向的感觉。)”和下文“This guide will inform you of the different stages of culture shock, helping you be better mentally prepared. (本指南将告诉你文化冲击的不同阶段，帮助你更好地做好心理准备。) ”可知设空处应是说文化冲击很难应对，所以下文对文化冲击的阶段进行介绍，这样可以帮助旅行者做好心理准备，B选项“这可能是一段困难而不堪重负的时期。”符合题意，故选B。 【42题详解】 根据上文“The first stage of culture shock is often overwhelmingly positive during which travelers become fascinated with the language, people and food in their new surroundings. (文化冲击的第一阶段通常是非常积极的，在此期间，旅行者会被新环境的语言、人和食物所吸引。)”所以可推断下文会说旅行者会很满意自己所做的决定，出来旅游，因为会被新环境的语言、人和食物所吸引，所以F选项“这次经历似乎是做过的最伟大的决定。”符合题意，紧扣上文，故选F。 【43题详解】 根据上文“Frustration may be the most difficult stage of culture shock and is probably familiar to anyone who has lived abroad or who travels frequently. At this stage, the stress of not understanding gestures, signs and the language sets in and miscommunications may be happening frequently. Small things — losing keys, missing the bus or not being able easily order food in a restaurant-may trigger frustration. (挫折可能是文化冲击中最困难的阶段，对于在国外生活过或经常旅行的人来说，这可能是很熟悉的。在这个阶段，不理解手势、手势和语言的压力开始出现，沟通不畅可能会频繁发生。一些小事情——丢了钥匙，错过了公共汽车，或者在餐馆里不能轻易点餐——都可能引发挫败感。)”可知在外国旅游遇见麻烦的时候就会更加想家，所以选项D“然后，抑郁和思乡之情必然会随之而来。”切题，故选D。 【44题详解】 根据下文“Navigation becomes easier, friends and communities of support are established and details of local languages may become more recognizable during the adjustment stage. People are comfortable with the cultures, people, food and languages of new environments. (在调整阶段，导航变得更容易，建立朋友和支持社区，当地语言的细节可能会变得更加清晰。人们对新环境的文化、人、食物和语言都很适应。)”可知旅行者在调整阶段对新环境的文化、人、食物和语言都适应了，所以不会再有很强的挫败感，G选项“当旅行者开始感到熟悉时，挫败感往往会缓和下来。”下文正是对G选项给出的原因，故选G 。 【45题详解】 根据上文“Generally — though sometimes weeks, months or years after wrestling with the emotional stages outlined above — the final stage of culture shock is acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean that new cultures or languages are fully grasped. (一般来说——尽管有时在经历了上述情感阶段后的几周、几个月或几年——文化冲击的最后阶段是接受。接受并不意味着完全掌握新的文化或语言。)”说明旅行者已经接受了新的文化，也就是意识到完全理解是不必要的。所以E选项“人们意识到完全理解是不必要的。”符合题意，故选E。 三、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) On our way home from school my kid and I shared each other our high and low part of the day.

They absolutely didn’t know how important that day, that train ride was to me! I was on my way to an interview for what could have been the opportunity of a lifetime. I threw both my hat and my art case down in depression, and sat down on the nearest chair, wiping (擦掉) the sweat from my face and breathing heavily. I would have to wait a whole day for the next train, and by then my appointment with the gallery owner would have given up on me. Perhaps it was for the best. It was, after all, the first time in 40 years anyone had shown such an interest in my art. Maybe if the gallery owner had seen all my paintings, he would have changed his mind about offering me space on his walls. Disappointment filled my soul. Should I dial the gallery and get an interview on a different day? But Pierre Gianni was the owner of the most well-known gallery in New York City. Why would he give a rare second chance to an elderly nobody when he had the newest, coolest young artists to choose from? Come to think of it, perhaps these insecurities were the very reason I had never been offered a show before. I was too afraid to try. I found countless excuses not to offer my work up to be seen and perhaps criticized. I told myself it would hurt too much if I failed, but the truth was that I had never tried. Finally, I gathered all my courage to dial the gallery, only to find my antique cell phone had broken down. It was at the very moment that I was in total despair and decided to go home. 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。 Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning I got to the gallery on time. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Paragraph 1: Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder. I turned around and saw an old man smiling gently at me. He told me that he had noticed the trouble which I was in and offered to lend me his phone. I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to him but words got stuck in my throat. Taking the phone he passed to me, I managed to collect myself and plucked up my courage to dial Pierre. After what seemed like an eternity, the phone was picked up. To my great relief, Pierre agreed to postpone the interview. Paragraph 2: The next morning I got to the gallery on time. I was staring at its grandeur when Pierre approached and welcomed me warmly. Several minutes later, with trembling hands I opened my art case and showed him my paintings one by one. Pierre fixed his eyes on my works with interest, listening to me attentively. Time ticking by, I grew more and more confident and excited. He loved my works! They were scheduled to be exhibited one month later! I was never more certain that what seems far beyond is simply a leap away if you dare to give it a try. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展为线索展开，讲述在赶往面试的路上，作者因没赶上火车而沮丧。更让作者失望的是，他不知道画廊老板皮埃尔是否会对他的画感兴趣，给他展出的机会。当作者鼓足勇气给皮埃尔打电话时，却发现手机坏了。这时，一位老人走过来把手机借给作者。让作者欣慰的是，皮埃尔同意推迟面试。在第二天的面试中，皮埃尔表示对作者的画很感兴趣，并计划一个月后让作者展出。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，我感到有人碰了碰我的肩膀。”可知，第一段可描写一位陌生人借给作者手机，作者联系上皮埃尔，皮埃尔同意推迟面试。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上我准时到了画廊。”可知，第二段可描写作者向皮埃尔展示他的作品，皮埃尔表示对作者的画感兴趣，并计划一个月后让作者展出。 2.续写线索：陌生人帮助——联系上画廊老板——同意推迟面试——参加面试、取得成功 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①推迟：postpone/put off ②到达：get to/reach/arrive at ③流逝：tick by/pass/go by 情绪类 ①感谢：express my gratitude /show my appreciation /be grateful ②激动的：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] He told me that he had noticed the trouble which I was in and offered to lend me his phone.（由关系代词which引导的限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] Time ticking by, I grew more and more confident and excited.（time ticking by是“主语+现在分词”构成的独立主格） [高分句型3] I was never more certain that what seems far beyond is simply a leap away if you dare to give it a try.（由what引导主语从句和if引导的条件状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
