Universal Volcano Bay Water Park You can’t miss the volcano at the center of Universal’s Volcano Bay Water Park. Attractions include a coaster with four-person canoes (独木舟), high-speed body slides and a lazy river with rapids and waves. An especially unique feature is the park’s virtual lines. For a quick walk to the park, stay at Universal’s Aventura Hotel. Legoland Water Park When you want a break from the bricks, head for Legoland Water Park. Families will find more than a dozen waterslides, a wave pool and a lazy river. At Creative Cove, visitors can build their own boats and race them against others, as well as test out their engineering skills by creating their own rafts (筏子) to float down the lazy river. Nearby accommodations include the Courtyard Winter Haven. SeaWorld Orlando SeaWorld Orlando has a mix of thrilling and more relaxed family-friendly rides. Younger kids can play around Sesame Street Land, which offers gentler rides like Elmo’s Choo Choo Train and Abby’s Flower Tower, complete with great views of the park. The Homewood Suites, the nearest hotel, offers a free hot breakfast daily, as well as a pool. Fun Spot America Located southwest of the city center, Fun Spot America features classic theme park rides such as the only wooden coaster in Orlando. You’ll also find thrilling rides like the SkyCoaster. At about $60 per ticket, Fun Spot America is a great value for some thrills, and much more affordable than the huge Disney and Universal parks. 1. What can visitors do in Legoland Water Park? A. Play with brick games. B. Learn skills from engineers. C. Create their own waterslides. D. Challenge others in boating. 2. In which park can visitors ride a unique coaster? A. Fun Spot America. B. Legoland Water Park. C. SeaWorld Orlando. D. Universal Volcano Bay Water Park. 3. What do these theme parks have in common? A. They are all water parks. B. They have volcanoes in the park. C. They are located in the same city. D. They offer hands-on experience. 【答案】1. D 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章分别介绍了奥兰多市的四个主题公园的特点、游乐项目以及附近的旅馆。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Legoland Water Park部分中“At Creative Cove, visitors can build their own boats and race them against othersas well as test out their engineering skills by creating their own rafts (筏子) to float down the lazy river.(在创意湾，游客可以建造自己的船，与其他人比赛，也可以通过制作自己的木筏来测试他们的工程技能，让他们沿着懒洋洋的河漂流。)”可知，游客可以自己建造船只并与他人进行划船比赛，即挑战别人划船。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Fun Spot America部分中“Fun Spot America features classic theme park rides such as the only wooden coaster in Orlando.(Fun Spot America提供经典的主题公园游乐设施，如奥兰多唯一的木制过山车。)”可知，游客可以在Fun Spot America体验奥兰多唯一的木制过山车。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章首段内容“If your family is begging for a theme park getaway, look no further than a trip to the city of Orlando.(如果你的家人正在乞求一个主题公园度假，那就去奥兰多市旅行吧。)”可知，作者建议想去主题公园度假的人们去奥兰多，随后介绍了四个公园，由此可知，这四个主题公园都位于同一个城市，奥兰多市。故选C。 B On Sunday, attendees had been trapped after storms turned Nevada’s Black Rock Desert into a mud bath. Close to an inch of rainfall starting on Friday flooded the area and forced event organizers to close access to the Burning Man Festival until vehicles could safely pass and to warn campers to save food and water. Despite reports of stuck vehicles and spotty Wi-Fi service, several attendees who spoke to NPR said the wet weather hadn’t lowered their spirits. “I would say honestly, walking around the city, spirits are pretty high,” attendee Anya Kamenetz said on Sunday. The challenging conditions are testing a community of so-called “burners” which regards self-support and common effort as its main principles. Event volunteer Josh Lease said that in true Burning Man spirit, people are sharing warm clothes and phone chargers. “It’s like any other Burning Man, just muddy,” Josh Lease told NPR on Saturday evening. “The warnings do sound very terrible, and of course, the organization has to tell people to take care,” said Claudia Peschiutta, an editor who attended the event, “but I haven’t seen one person who seems worried about it at all.” Sense of loss and upset, however, started to affect some attendees by Sunday. In rainy Burning Mans past, longtime “burner” Joe Bamberg said he’s seen carpets and clothes eventually dry out. But this time, all was wet and seemed to never dry up. He expressed he would have no plan to come again. At the same time, officials were investigating a death at the site. They said on Saturday that a person died during the event but offered few details, including whether the death was weather-related. The muddy road is expected to dry up starting Monday, which is forecast to see clear skies, promising long waits in traffic on the final day of the annual event. But event organizers have yet to give detailed information of when gates will open to cars. 4. How did Anya Kamenetz feel when trapped? A. Inspired. B. Positive. C. Upset. D. Puzzled. 5. Why did people come to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert? A. They just passed by this area. B. They were on a sightseeing tour. C. They came to join in an activity. D. They were learning survival skills. 6. What can we infer from Joe Bamberg’s words? A. It seldom rains at this time. B. He wouldn’t come any longer. C. He felt frightened at the bad news. D. People should prepare more goods. 7. What is this passage? A. A diary. B. A scientific article. C. A novel. D. A news report. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了内华达州“火人节”遭遇暴雨，与会者被困的情况。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段“Despite reports of stuck vehicles and spotty Wi-Fi service, several attendees who spoke to NPR said the wet weather hadn’t lowered their spirits. “I would say honestly, walking around the city, spirits are pretty high,” attendee Anya Kamenetz said on Sunday. (尽管有报道称车辆被困，Wi-Fi服务不稳定，但几名与会者告诉NPR，潮湿的天气并没有降低他们的精神。“老实说，走在城市里，我的情绪非常高，”参加者安雅·卡梅内茨周日说)”可知，安雅·卡梅内茨被困时的情绪是积极的。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Close to an inch of rainfall starting on Friday flooded the area and forced event organizers to close access to the Burning Man Festival until vehicles could safely pass and to warn campers to save food and water. (从周五开始，近一英寸的降雨淹没了该地区，迫使活动组织者关闭了火人节的通道，直到车辆可以安全通过，并警告露营者节约食物和水)”可知，人们来到内华达州的黑石沙漠是为了参加一个活动。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第五段中“In rainy Burning Mans past, longtime “burner” Joe Bamberg said he’s seen carpets and clothes eventually dry out. But this time, all was wet and seemed to never dry up. He expressed he would have no plan to come again. (在以往下雨的“火人节”上，资深“火人”乔·巴姆伯格说，他看到地毯和衣服最终都晾干了。但这一次，所有东西都是湿的，似乎永远也干不了。他表示，他以后不打算再来了)”可推知，乔·巴姆伯格不会再来了。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“On Sunday, attendees had been trapped after storms turned Nevada’s Black Rock Desert into a mud bath. Close to an inch of rainfall starting on Friday flooded the area and forced event organizers to close access to the Burning Man Festival until vehicles could safely pass and to warn campers to save food and water. (周日，暴风雨将内华达州的黑岩沙漠变成了泥浴，与会者被困。从周五开始，近一英寸的降雨淹没了该地区，迫使活动组织者关闭了火人节的通道，直到车辆可以安全通过，并警告露营者节约食物和水)”可知，文章主要介绍了内华达州黑石沙漠举办“火人节”时遭遇暴雨，与会者被困，以及活动组织者采取的措施等情况。由此可推知，这是一篇新闻报道，第一段为新闻导语。故选D。 C Like many fans, Jerad Castillo has a box full of tickets from the games and concerts he’s attended. There are some great memories — like a ticket for the U. S. Open Golf Tournament in 2019. And painful ones — like one from when his beloved Texas Rangers lost in Game 5 of the World Series in 2010． But Castillo hasn’t added to his collection for a while. Tickets are digital now, but the 40-year-old Fort Worth resident still misses his treasured stubs (票根). “You have your digital ticket, but as soon as you enter the event and that day goes, you have nothing to look back on that, you know?” he says. But there’s good news for fans like Castillo. Some sports teams and concert promoters are starting to sell physical tickets again. Not the ones from the past, with the bar codes and the tear-off stubs. These are much higher quality, usually with a nice photo or art design. Typically, they are issued to mark a big game or moment. They are becoming a bit of a hit, according to Weldon, Williams & Lick (WW&L), a printing company that is working to produce the tickets. “There’s still always that connection to an actual ticket,” says Evan Gitomer, the company’s chief revenue officer. “It reminds you, and it takes you back, just like the sense of smell.” WW&L has been producing tickets for over a century. Today, they’ve found a niche producing paper souvenir tickets for big events. These tickets usually sell for $15 to $20. They’re not included in the game’s actual admission price, so some fans resent having to pay more money later for a ticket to a game or event they already attended. But they are selling and the company’s income has more than doubled in the last couple of years. “There’s probably some type of limit to where this can actually get to,” Gitomer says. But he adds that every time he thinks that, he bumps into a fan who appreciates the chance to own a physical reminder of a game or a concert from a favorite artist. 8. What differs the new physical tickets from the previous ones? A. They are made of plastic. B. They are sweet to smell. C. They have photos on them. D. They can be obtained online. 9. What does the underlined word “resent” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Admit. B. Hate. C. Consider. D. Suggest. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Some fans like souvenir tickets. B. Gitomer has some fans of his own. C. There is a limit to buying paper tickets. D. Not all have the chance to get souvenir tickets. 11. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Many People Miss Paper Tickets B. Why Are Paper Tickets Disappearing? C. Digital Tickets Are Being Resisted D. Who Are Fond of Physical Tickets? 【答案】8 C 9. B 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了随着数字票务的普及，许多粉丝怀念实体票根。如今，一些体育赛事和音乐会开始重新推出高质量的实体纪念票，这些票不仅具有收藏价值，还唤起了人们对过去美好回忆的情感连接。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Some sports teams and concert promoters are starting to sell physical tickets again. Not the ones from the past, with the bar codes and the tear-off stubs. These are much higher quality, usually with a nice photo or art design.(一些体育队伍和演唱会推广者开始再次销售实体票。不是过去那种带有条形码和可撕下的副券的票。这些新票通常质量更高，常常配有精美的照片或艺术设计)”可知，新的实体票与过去的票不同，它们通常带有精美的照片或艺术设计。故选C。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“They’re not included in the game’s actual admission price, so some fans resent having to pay more money later for a ticket to a game or event they already attended. (这些纪念票并不包含在实际的入场票价中，因此一些粉丝对需要为已经参加过的比赛或活动再额外支付一笔钱购买纪念票而resent)”可知，对于额外收费这种事情，大家应该都是感到反感或讨厌的。因此，“resent”在这里的意思是“反感”或“讨厌”，故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““There’s probably some type of limit to where this can actually get to,” Gitomer says. But he adds that every time he thinks that, he bumps into a fan who appreciates the chance to own a physical reminder of a game or a concert from a favorite artist. (但他补充说，每次他这样想的时候，总会遇到一位粉丝，对方很感激有机会拥有一张来自喜爱的艺术家的音乐会或比赛的实体纪念票)”可知，尽管Gitomer认为纪念票的市场可能有上限，但他总是遇到欣赏这种实体纪念票的粉丝。这表明许多粉丝喜欢纪念票。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Tickets are digital now, but the 40-year-old Fort Worth resident still misses his treasured stubs. (如今，票务已经数字化了，但这位40岁的沃斯堡居民仍然怀念他珍藏的那些票根)”及全文可知，文章主要讲述了随着数字票务的普及，许多粉丝还是在怀念实体票根，因此，A选项“许多人怀念纸质票”适合作为文章的标题。故选A。 D Extreme weather events like heatwaves, heavy rain, and droughts stress plants, which can reduce crop yields and threaten the long-term health of our farms, forests, and biodiversity. There is an unmet need to monitor precisely how plants respond to these changes. While drones and aircraft have improved plant monitoring from above, they only capture (捕获) surface-level information. They also need adjustments to be able to track plants accurately over time. Other small sensors that can capture changes at the individual plant level are inconvenient since they often require on-site personnel to install and manually check each sensor. “The traditional methods may work well for some purposes but they are difficult to operate and quite expensive,” explains Kaori Kohzuma, the developer of sensors, “In order to continuously monitor small changes, we needed a new solution.” To address these issues, a team of researchers developed a novel sensor that attaches directly to the underside of plant leaves. This small device uses a spectroscopic (光谱的) sensor and light source to measure leaf color without blocking sunlight, and it can track changes in the same spot over time. Powered by a battery, with Wi-Fi data transfer and waterproofing, the sensor can work outdoors for over a month, allowing for extended data collection. This sensor performed well when compared with a commercial spectrometer on about 90 leaves from 30 different plant species. It accurately distinguished colors across seven out of its eight detectable wavelengths. In an outdoor trial to test performance under real life conditions, they attached the sensor to tree leaves to track changes in leaf color during autumn, leaf fall, and aging over two weeks. They were able to observe a decrease in chlorophyll (叶绿素) — an indicator of plant stress — and how the plant’s response varied with sunlight intensity. “This sensor can accurately monitor plant health and stress through leaf color and light reflection data. Its low cost makes it possible to place multiple sensors across various locations,” summarizes Kohzuma. 12. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 1? A. The effect of extreme weather on plants. B. The importance of aircraft in agriculture. C The disadvantages of some small sensors. D. The necessity of precise plant monitoring. 13. How does the author introduce the novel sensor in paragraph 3? A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures. C. By raising questions. D. By making statements. 14. Why is chlorophyll mentioned in the text? A. To stress its importance to plants. B. To compare different plant species. C. To show the accuracy of the sensor. D. To introduce the principle of the sensor. 15. What does Kohzuma think of the new sensor? A. It is adjustable. B. It is affordable. C. It is remote-controlled. D. It is power-free. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员为了精确监测植物而研发的一款精准，便宜的感应器。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。通过阅读第一段内容可知，该段中“There is an unmet need to monitor precisely how plants respond to these changes.(精确监测植物如何应对这些变化的需求尚未得到满足。)”提到了精确监测植物应对极端天气变化这一需求，同时结合该段后文内容“They also need adjustments to be able to track plants accurately over time. Other small sensors that can capture changes at the individual plant level are inconvenient…(它们还需要调整，以便能够随着时间的推移准确地跟踪植物。其他可以捕捉单个植物水平变化的小型传感器很不方便……)”举例了飞机监控和小型传感器对作物监测存在的问题。由此可知，该段主要讲述了使用仪器精确监测植物的必要性。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段关键句内容“This small device uses a spectroscopic (光谱的) sensor and light source to measure leaf color without blocking sunlight, and it can track changes in the same spot over time. Powered by a battery, with Wi-Fi data transfer and waterproofing, the sensor can work outdoors for over a month, allowing for extended data collection.(这种小型设备使用光谱传感器和光源来测量叶子的颜色，而不会阻挡阳光，并且可以跟踪同一地点随时间的变化。该传感器由电池供电，具有Wi-Fi数据传输和防水功能，可以在室外工作一个多月，从而可以延长数据收集时间)”可知，该段主要对这种新研发的感应器进行了工作原理介绍。由此推知，作者是通过原理陈述的方法介绍这种新研发的感应器的。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。文章第五段内容“They were able to observe a decrease in chlorophyll — an indicator of plant stress — and how the plant’s response varied with sunlight intensity.(他们能够观察到叶绿素（植物压力的一个指标）的减少，以及植物的反应如何随着阳光强度的变化而变化。)”提到的这种感应器可以观察到叶绿素的减少，是实验举例，以说明这种感应器可以监测到如此细微的变化，从而证明了该新型感应器的精准性。由此可推知，提到可以观察到叶绿素减少是为了证明这种感应器的精准监测。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末尾段落Kohzuma的话“This sensor can accurately monitor plant health and stress through leaf color and light reflection data. Its low cost makes it possible to place multiple sensors across various locations(该传感器可以通过叶片颜色和光反射数据准确监测植物健康和压力。它的低成本使得在不同位置放置多个传感器成为可能)”可知，在他看来，这种传感器精准性高，成本低。由此推知，他认为人们可以负担起这种传感器。故选B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，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s now been 10 years since I sold everything and left the United States to travel the world. Here are some of my best travel planning tips to help you have a great trip. ____16____ I don’t know how to answer when readers ask how many days they should spend traveling in a particular country or city. The truth is that I have no idea what you’ll enjoy or who you’ll meet. My advice is to pick a starting point, 1 or 2 must-do activities, and an ending point(or not). ____17____ Be open to changing your plans if you learn about something along the way! Learn a few foreign words. There’s no need to be fluent in order to visit a foreign country. However, mastering a few phrases in the local language can improve your travel experience.____18____ But remember that this is your problem, not theirs. Raising your voice doesn’t magically help Mexicans understand English. Try hand signals, images on your phone, or Google Translate! Write down the address of your hotel. Sometimes, after a long flight playing games on your smartphone, your battery could end up dead. And if you didn’t write down where you’re staying, how will you tell the taxi driver? ____19____ Read a book about the country. Before you travel to a new country, I recommend reading a good book about it to learn more about its history and culture before you arrive. ____20____ Your travel experience will be different if you already know about your destination. A. Pick a starting point. B. Be flexible and don’t over plan. C. Then just let the universe determine the rest. D. You are sure to benefit from these simple images. E. This could be as simple as a popular novel by a local author. F. Not being able to communicate while traveling can be frustrating. G. I also recommend noting down your room number after you check in. 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. F 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者给读者的一些最佳旅行计划建议，帮助读者有一次愉快的旅行。 【16题详解】 根据下文“I don’t know how to answer when readers ask how many days they should spend traveling in a particular country or city.(当读者问我应该在某个特定国家或城市旅行多少天时，我不知道该怎么回答。)”可知，作者在此部分给出的旅行计划建议是不要过度计划在某地呆多少天，旅行计划要灵活一些。选项B“要灵活，不要过度计划”符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 根据上文“My advice is to pick a starting point, 1 or 2 must-do activities, and an ending point (or not).(我的建议是选择一个起点，1或2个必须做的活动，以及一个终点（或者没有）。)”和下文“Be open to changing your plans if you learn about something along the way.(如果你在路上了解到了一些新情况，要乐于改变你的计划。)”可知，作者建议旅行者选定起点和终点以及一些必须做的活动后，剩下的就顺其自然，如果在路上了解到一些新情况，要乐于改变计划。选项C“然后让一切顺其自然”符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Learn a few foreign words.(学一些外语单词。)”和下文“But remember that this is your problem, not theirs. Raising your voice doesn’t magically help Mexicans understand English.(但请记住，这是你的问题，不是他们的问题。提高嗓门并不能神奇地帮助墨西哥人理解英语。)”可知，此空应是说在旅行时不能交流会让人感到沮丧，所以作者才建议掌握一些当地语言的短语，以便能更好地和当地人交流。提高嗓门也不能帮助交流，因为这是旅行者自己的问题，当地人没有义务去理解旅行者。选项F“旅行时不能交流会让人感到沮丧”符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Sometimes, after a long flight playing games on your smartphone, your battery could end up dead. And if you didn’t write down where you’re staying, how will you tell the taxi driver.(有时候，在长途飞行中玩智能手机游戏后，你的手机可能会没电。如果你没有写下你住的地方，你怎么告诉出租车司机。)”可知，作者在此部分应是建议旅行者记下自己住的地方，以防手机没电时无法告诉出租车司机自己要去哪里。选项G“我还建议在入住后记下你的房间号”符合语境。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Before you travel to a new country, I recommend reading a good book about it to learn more about its history and culture before you arrive.(在你去一个新的国家旅行之前，我建议你读一本关于它的好书，在你到达之前了解更多关于它的历史和文化。)”和下文“Your travel experience will be different if you already know about your destination.(如果你已经了解了你的目的地，你的旅行体验将会不同。)”可知，此空应是举例说明可以读一本关于目的地的什么书，选项E“这可以简单到当地作家的一本流行小说”符合语境。故选E。 第二部分 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was at work on a customer’s house when I fell off.

My answer was an immediate yes. As a teacher, I tried to make the classroom feel like a family. Many children did not have grandparents or had ones who lived far away, so I thought this was a wonderful opportunity for children to be taken care of by an older adult. I introduced her to the class by the name Grandma Helen. I was not quite certain what to expect when Helen first came to us. I had imagined a little old lady, possibly weak, who would read and spend time with the children. Little did I know that Helen would walk into the classroom with a spring in her step and light in her eyes. She said she was available up to three days a week for about four hours. She was anxious to help in any way she could. Helen’s enthusiasm and energy level were so high that I would joke that if we ran a race, she would win. She was agile (敏捷的), getting up and down from those little kindergarten chairs even though “grown-up” chairs were available. The children were attracted by her right away. It turned out that she did not want to read to groups of children, but really enjoyed sitting at learning stations while children were working. There they would talk and she would make note of their questions and concerns. Not all children were able to focus and finish their work on time, so she helped the ones who needed a little extra guidance. She had endless patience helping a child called Bob learn to cut with scissors. Wintertime always brought the battle of the coats and boots. The children had about twenty to thirty minutes of outside activities but they always had trouble dealing with the zippers (拉链) on their jackets. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then Grandma Helen helped zip their jackets when they went out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Grandma Helen was handling my zippers, the children looked curiously. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then Grandma Helen helped zip their jackets when they went out. When they came inside, there were always a few stuck in their coats when their jackets got caught in their zippers. She would patiently lift the offending coats over their heads and work to loose the zippers. One day this even happened to me. After playing with the children in the open air, I went back to the classroom only to find my coat was caught in the zipper, too. Seeing this, some children as well as Grandma Helen came up to help. When Grandma Helen was handling my zippers, the children looked curiously. Some wanted to help but didn’t know what to do. Then the boy with the name Bob walked away and when he returned, there was a pair of scissors in his hands, saying he could use them to cut out my zippers. Hearing this, we couldn’t help laughing. What a pleasant time we were having together! Then every day, I looked forward to Grandma Helen’s cheerful presence and the children eagerly waved to her from their tables when she walked through the door. The classroom really felt like a family. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。海伦奶奶来到作者的幼儿园班上当志愿者。她总是耐心的帮助孩子们。特别是帮助孩子们解决衣服拉链的问题，因为他们的衣服经常被拉链卡住。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当他们出门时，海伦奶奶帮他们拉上夹克的拉链。”可知，第一段可描写海伦奶奶是如何帮助孩子们解决拉链问题的。 ②由第二段首句内容“海伦奶奶帮我拉拉链时，孩子们好奇地看着。”可知，第二段可描写海伦奶奶帮作者拉拉链的过程中发生的故事。 2.续写线索：孩子们被困——帮助拉拉链——作者的拉链卡住——海伦奶奶帮忙解拉链——孩子们想帮忙——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①发生：happen/occur ②回来：return/come back ③帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①热切地：eagerly/enthusiastically ②好奇地：curiously/with curiosity 【点睛】[高分句型1] When they came inside, there were always a few stuck in their coats when their jackets got caught in their zippers.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] Then the boy with the name Bob walked away and when he returned, there was a pair of scissors in his hands, saying he could use them to cut out my zippers.（运用了when引导的时间状语和现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 广东省2024—2025学年上学期期末考试 高二英语试卷 试卷共8页，47小题，满分120分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．考查范围：选择性必修第一册～选择性必修第二册Unit3。 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 3．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第一部分 阅读(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 If your family is begging for a theme park getaway, look no further than a trip to the city of Orlando. Universal Volcano Bay Water Park You can’t miss the volcano at the center of Universal’s Volcano Bay Water Park. Attractions include a coaster with four-person canoes (独木舟), high-speed body slides and a lazy river with rapids and waves. An especially unique feature is the park’s virtual lines. For a quick walk to the park, stay at Universal’s Aventura Hotel. Legoland Water Park When you want a break from the bricks, head for Legoland Water Park. Families will find more than a dozen waterslides, a wave pool and a lazy river. At Creative Cove, visitors can build their own boats and race them against others, as well as test out their engineering skills by creating their own rafts (筏子) to float down the lazy river. Nearby accommodations include the Courtyard Winter Haven. SeaWorld Orlando SeaWorld Orlando has a mix of thrilling and more relaxed family-friendly rides. Younger kids can play around Sesame Street Land, which offers gentler rides like Elmo’s Choo Choo Train and Abby’s Flower Tower, complete with great views of the park. The Homewood Suites, the nearest hotel, offers a free hot breakfast daily, as well as a pool. Fun Spot America Located southwest of the city center, Fun Spot America features classic theme park rides such as the only wooden coaster in Orlando. You’ll also find thrilling rides like the SkyCoaster. At about $60 per ticket, Fun Spot America is a great value for some thrills, and much more affordable than the huge Disney and Universal parks. 1. What can visitors do in Legoland Water Park? A. Play with brick games. B. Learn skills from engineers. C Create their own waterslides. D. Challenge others in boating. 2. In which park can visitors ride a unique coaster? A. Fun Spot America. B. Legoland Water Park. C. SeaWorld Orlando. D. Universal Volcano Bay Water Park. 3. What do these theme parks have in common? A. They are all water parks. B. They have volcanoes in the park. C. They are located in the same city. D They offer hands-on experience. B On Sunday, attendees had been trapped after storms turned Nevada’s Black Rock Desert into a mud bath. Close to an inch of rainfall starting on Friday flooded the area and forced event organizers to close access to the Burning Man Festival until vehicles could safely pass and to warn campers to save food and water. Despite reports of stuck vehicles and spotty Wi-Fi service, several attendees who spoke to NPR said the wet weather hadn’t lowered their spirits. “I would say honestly, walking around the city, spirits are pretty high,” attendee Anya Kamenetz said on Sunday. The challenging conditions are testing a community of so-called “burners” which regards self-support and common effort as its main principles. Event volunteer Josh Lease said that in true Burning Man spirit, people are sharing warm clothes and phone chargers. “It’s like any other Burning Man, just muddy,” Josh Lease told NPR on Saturday evening. “The warnings do sound very terrible, and of course, the organization has to tell people to take care,” said Claudia Peschiutta, an editor who attended the event, “but I haven’t seen one person who seems worried about it at all.” Sense of loss and upset, however, started to affect some attendees by Sunday. In rainy Burning Mans past, longtime “burner” Joe Bamberg said he’s seen carpets and clothes eventually dry out. But this time, all was wet and seemed to never dry up. He expressed he would have no plan to come again. At the same time, officials were investigating a death at the site. They said on Saturday that a person died during the event but offered few details, including whether the death was weather-related. The muddy road is expected to dry up starting Monday, which is forecast to see clear skies, promising long waits in traffic on the final day of the annual event. But event organizers have yet to give detailed information of when gates will open to cars. 4. How did Anya Kamenetz feel when trapped? A. Inspired. B. Positive. C. Upset. D. Puzzled. 5. Why did people come to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert? A. They just passed by this area. B. They were on a sightseeing tour. C. They came to join in an activity. D. They were learning survival skills. 6. What can we infer from Joe Bamberg’s words? A. It seldom rains at this time. B. He wouldn’t come any longer. C. He felt frightened at the bad news. D. People should prepare more goods. 7. What is this passage? A. A diary. B. A scientific article. C. A novel. D. A news report. C Like many fans, Jerad Castillo has a box full of tickets from the games and concerts he’s attended. There are some great memories — like a ticket for the U. S. Open Golf Tournament in 2019. And painful ones — like one from when his beloved Texas Rangers lost in Game 5 of the World Series in 2010． But Castillo hasn’t added to his collection for a while. Tickets are digital now but the 40-year-old Fort Worth resident still misses his treasured stubs (票根). “You have your digital ticket, but as soon as you enter the event and that day goes, you have nothing to look back on that, you know?” he says. But there’s good news for fans like Castillo. Some sports teams and concert promoters are starting to sell physical tickets again. Not the ones from the past, with the bar codes and the tear-off stubs. These are much higher quality, usually with a nice photo or art design. Typically, they are issued to mark a big game or moment. They are becoming a bit of a hit, according to Weldon, Williams & Lick (WW&L), a printing company that is working to produce the tickets. “There’s still always that connection to an actual ticket,” says Evan Gitomer, the company’s chief revenue officer. “It reminds you, and it takes you back, just like the sense of smell.” WW&L has been producing tickets for over a century. Today, they’ve found a niche producing paper souvenir tickets for big events. These tickets usually sell for $15 to $20. They’re not included in the game’s actual admission price, so some fans resent having to pay more money later for a ticket to a game or event they already attended. But they are selling and the company’s income has more than doubled in the last couple of years. “There’s probably some type of limit to where this can actually get to,” Gitomer says. But he adds that every time he thinks that, he bumps into a fan who appreciates the chance to own a physical reminder of a game or a concert from a favorite artist. 8. What differs the new physical tickets from the previous ones? A. They are made of plastic. B. They are sweet to smell. C. They have photos on them. D. They can be obtained online. 9. What does the underlined word “resent” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Admit. B. Hate. C. Consider. D. Suggest. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Some fans like souvenir tickets. B. Gitomer has some fans of his own. C. There is a limit to buying paper tickets. D. Not all have the chance to get souvenir tickets. 11. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Many People Miss Paper Tickets B. Why Are Paper Tickets Disappearing? C. Digital Tickets Are Being Resisted D. Who Are Fond of Physical Tickets? D Extreme weather events like heatwaves, heavy rain, and droughts stress plants, which can reduce crop yields and threaten the long-term health of our farms, forests, and biodiversity. There is an unmet need to monitor precisely how plants respond to these changes. While drones and aircraft have improved plant monitoring from above, they only capture (捕获) surface-level information. They also need adjustments to be able to track plants accurately over time. Other small sensors that can capture changes at the individual plant level are inconvenient since they often require on-site personnel to install and manually check each sensor. “The traditional methods may work well for some purposes, but they are difficult to operate and quite expensive,” explains Kaori Kohzuma, the developer of sensors, “In order to continuously monitor small changes, we needed a new solution.” To address these issues, a team of researchers developed a novel sensor that attaches directly to the underside of plant leaves. This small device uses a spectroscopic (光谱的) sensor and light source to measure leaf color without blocking sunlight, and it can track changes in the same spot over time. Powered by a battery, with Wi-Fi data transfer and waterproofing, the sensor can work outdoors for over a month, allowing for extended data collection. This sensor performed well when compared with a commercial spectrometer on about 90 leaves from 30 different plant species. It accurately distinguished colors across seven out of its eight detectable wavelengths. In an outdoor trial to test performance under real life conditions, they attached the sensor to tree leaves to track changes in leaf color during autumn, leaf fall, and aging over two weeks. They were able to observe a decrease in chlorophyll (叶绿素) — an indicator of plant stress — and how the plant’s response varied with sunlight intensity. “This sensor can accurately monitor plant health and stress through leaf color and light reflection data. Its low cost makes it possible to place multiple sensors across various locations,” summarizes Kohzuma. 12. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 1? A. The effect of extreme weather on plants. B. The importance of aircraft in agriculture. C. The disadvantages of some small sensors. D. The necessity of precise plant monitoring. 13. How does the author introduce the novel sensor in paragraph 3? A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures. C. By raising questions. D. By making statements. 14. Why is chlorophyll mentioned in the text? A. To stress its importance to plants. B. To compare different plant species. C. To show the accuracy of the sensor. D. To introduce the principle of the sensor. 15. What does Kohzuma think of the new sensor? A. It is adjustable. B. It is affordable. C. It is remote-controlled. D. It is power-free. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s now been 10 years since I sold everything and left the United States to travel the world. Here are some of my best travel planning tips to help you have a great trip. ____16____ I don’t know how to answer when readers ask how many days they should spend traveling in a particular country or city. The truth is that I have no idea what you’ll enjoy or who you’ll meet. My advice is to pick a starting point, 1 or 2 must-do activities, and an ending point(or not). ____17____ Be open to changing your plans if you learn about something along the way! Learn a few foreign words. There’s no need to be fluent in order to visit a foreign country.

Raising your voice doesn’t magically help Mexicans understand English. Try hand signals, images on your phone, or Google Translate! Write down the address of your hotel. Sometimes, after a long flight playing games on your smartphone, your battery could end up dead. And if you didn’t write down where you’re staying, how will you tell the taxi driver? ____19____ Read a book about the country. Before you travel to a new country, I recommend reading a good book about it to learn more about its history and culture before you arrive. ____20____ Your travel experience will be different if you already know about your destination. A. Pick a starting point. B Be flexible and don’t over plan. C. Then just let the universe determine the rest. D. You are sure to benefit from these simple images. E. This could be as simple as a popular novel by a local author. F. Not being able to communicate while traveling can be frustrating. G. I also recommend noting down your room number after you check in. 第二部分 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was at work on a customer’s house when I fell off.

My answer was an immediate yes. As a teacher, I tried to make the classroom feel like a family. Many children did not have grandparents or had ones who lived far away, so I thought this was a wonderful opportunity for children to be taken care of by an older adult. I introduced her to the class by the name Grandma Helen. I was not quite certain what to expect when Helen first came to us. I had imagined a little old lady, possibly weak, who would read and spend time with the children. Little did I know that Helen would walk into the classroom with a spring in her step and light in her eyes. She said she was available up to three days a week for about four hours. She was anxious to help in any way she could. Helen’s enthusiasm and energy level were so high that I would joke that if we ran a race, she would win. She was agile (敏捷的), getting up and down from those little kindergarten chairs even though “grown-up” chairs were available. The children were attracted by her right away. It turned out that she did not want to read to groups of children, but really enjoyed sitting at learning stations while children were working. There they would talk and she would make note of their questions and concerns. Not all children were able to focus and finish their work on time, so she helped the ones who needed a little extra guidance. She had endless patience helping a child called Bob learn to cut with scissors. Wintertime always brought the battle of the coats and boots. The children had about twenty to thirty minutes of outside activities but they always had trouble dealing with the zippers (拉链) on their jackets. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then Grandma Helen helped zip their jackets when they went out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Grandma Helen was handling my zippers, the children looked curiously. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
