About two-thirds of us already head out to stretch our legs once a week. The following festivals offer a wealth of organized walks, but walkers should register in advance. Prestatyn and Clwydian Range festival Visitors to Wales tend to move west, to either the well-worn tracks of Snowdonia or the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. There are 25 walks packed into the three days, with various options available, including a half-mile Roman-themed adventure, an eight-mile walk exploring the life of 18th-century Welsh naturalist and travel writer Thomas Pennant and a 21-mile Offa’s Dyke challenge. All walks are free. Denbighshire, Wales, 19-21 May Otley walking festival This local festival has grown from humble origins in 2000 into a busy schedule of 50 short-distance walks and events celebrating the lives and landscapes of Wharfedale in West Yorkshire. One might enjoy the Five Pubs Walk, Walking With Wine, Four More Pubs or Lost Pubs of Otley. All walks are free, though there is sometimes a small charge for transport. Otley, West Yorkshire, 24 June-3 July Dartmoor offroading walking festival Dartmoor delights (使高兴) walkers because, while tracks are there to be followed, the lack of wire and other barriers, and the relatively small number of farm buildings on the higher ground, create a sensation of freedom. The six free wheelchair walks, starting daily at 11am, explore Dartmoor’s industrial history, bronze age valuables and Victorian railway builders. Devon, 27 August-2 September Gower walking festival With more superb walking options inside a single landscape than perhaps anywhere else, the Gower peninsula (半岛) sometimes feels as if it’s all coast. The further information for this nine-day festival, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Wales Coast Path (WCP), has yet to be finalized. Half of the walks offered during the festival will be on the coastal path, £10 adults, over-sixes £6. Glamorgan, 2-10 September 1. Which festival is friendly to the disabled? A. Prestatyn and Clwydian Range festival. B. Otley walking festival. C. Dartmoor offroading walking festival. D. Gower walking festival. 2. What do we know about Gower walking festival? A. It has the most superb walking options. B. Half of the walks last for a whole week. C. It’s aimed to advocate coastal protection. D. The final details remain to be confirmed. 3. What do the listed festivals have in common? A. They are offered free of charge. B. They require prior registeration. C. They take advantage of the coast. D. They are physically demanding. B On Dec.26, Gelinne was having a cup of coffee at home, gazing out at frozen Beards River. Suddenly, his daughter cried “Look!” Gelinne looked up just in time to see a small aircraft a few hundred yards away, coming down. As the plane disappeared behind the trees, Gelinne, a former sailor, realized it would land in the river. Without hesitation, he ran down to the waterfront. The plane had slid to a stop on the broad, frozen river, far from shore, sinking. The pilot was standing on the wing. Gelinne knew from his previous training that even a few minutes in the icy water could kill the pilot. Gelinne tested the ice with his foot and decided not to take any chances walking on it. So he and his son, John, pulled two kayaks (皮划艇) out. “If it can float on the water, it can slide on the ice,” Gelinne said. The kayaks’ paddles (桨) proved too weak, so the pair tried using sticks to push the boats along. Their first attempts left them spinning in circles. But with effort, they made progress. When Gelinne reached the plane, the pilot was standing on a tail wing, surrounded by open water. Gelinne pushed his kayak off the ice and into the water, paddling toward the pilot and thinking, “What if he panics? What if I fall over?” With his son nearby, Gelinne focused on keeping the pilot calm, joking, “Just hang on to the kayak as if you were hugging your wife.” The pilot grabbed the kayak’s bow. Gelinne knew he had to get the pilot onto the shelf of unbroken ice. But each time Gelinne tried, the kayak broke through the ice. He needed help. Soon a police officer arrived and radioed for help. A boat from the local Department of Natural Resources appeared. It picked up the pilot, Steve 71, and rushed him to safety, who would be treated for minor injuries. Later the boat returned to help Gelinne, exhausted, to shore. The boat had arrived just in time, Gelinne recalled. “I’m 60 years old,” he says. “There was no way I could get him to shore.” Still, he was satisfied. 4. What was Gelinne’s first reaction to the air crash? A. Hesitant. B. Concerned. C. Scared. D. Surprised. 5. What can be learned from paragraph 4? A. The plane had sunk to the bottom. B. The pilot was nearly frozen to death. C. The kayaks got stuck in floating ice. D. The rescue was tougher than expected. 6. Why did Gelinne need help? A. Because his son didn’t help him. B. Because the kayaks were broken. C. Because the ice wasn’t solid enough. D Because the pilot was too exhausted. 7. Which of the following can best describe Gelinne? A. Honest and independent. B. Modest and intelligent. C. Helpful and humorous. D. Generous and cautious. C Older people worry about how to make young ones, who love their devices, interested in old books. Like the Monkey King from Journey to the West, he was a favorite hero before the Internet came along. Havoc in Heaven《大闹天宫》, a new Peking Opera film, attracted the wider public to the charm of the traditional Chinese performance art, featuring one of the best-known chapters from Journey to the West. This film, expected to create a new channel to promote Peking Opera, includes nearly all the key ingredients of Peking Opera. It covers all the basic techniques, more than 10 classic tunes, and make-up for dozens of facial representations of different figures’ characteristics. It’s actually a big challenge to combine Peking Opera and film, each of which has its own rhythm, according to Cheng Lu, director of the film, who is adopting a fresh approach to present the traditional art form. One challenge that Cheng and his production team faced is how to balance the new approach with maintaining the fundamentals of the art. The basic principles and performance skills in Peking Opera cannot be changed. Some background images on stage, such as a painted waterfall, remain, and a live band was on the set to provide sound for the film, rather than employing the prerecorded music. “If we change traditions to cater to people’s taste and preference for a regular film, it will no longer be a Peking Opera piece of art,” Cheng said. On the other hand, some creativity was needed because Cheng and his team did not just want to document a stage performance. Computer technology is also applied to achieve some visual effects and to present impossible scenes. Peking Opera films played a powerful role in the 1960s and 70s, but they gave way to more diverse entertainment. In recent years, there has been a recovery in the popularity of Peking Opera films. However, the overuse of special effects in many film adaptations of Peking Opera plays has weakened the original charm of the stage performances. The imagination (enabled by the stage) can never be sacrificed for a film’s expression. 8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To blame young people addicted to electronic devices. B To express older people’s concern about the young generation. C. To arouse readers’ interest in traditional Chinese performance art. D. To introduce a new Peking Opera film that the article is to deal with. 9. What did Director Cheng do while producing the film? A. He made changes to basic performance skills. B. He made use of symbols and motions equally. C. He insisted on a band playing music on the scene. D. He brought onto the stage exact details of real life. 10. What innovation did Cheng’s team make? A. They opposed a rigid recording of the performance. B. They enriched visual effects with modern technology. C. They allowed actors to repeat actions before the camera. D. They adopted real explosion scenes during the shooting. 11. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Imagination is a unique charm of Peking Opera films. B. Technology makes up for the loss of stage imagination. C. There is some possibility for a film to replace Peking Opera. D. The traditional appeal of Peking Opera should not be given up for movies. D A form of gene therapy that is already being trialled in patients with Parkinson’s disease might provide a treatment for severe alcohol addiction. Alcohol misuse is the biggest risk factor for death, disability and ill health among people aged 15 to 49 in the UK, responsible for 9,641 deaths during 2021. Like other addictive substances, alcohol triggers the release of a feelgood chemical in the brain called dopamine. However, long-term drinking decreases dopamine release, and people who are addicted to alcohol don’t tend to feel pleasure in drinking it any more. “It seems that they’re drinking more because they feel a need to maintain a drunk state,” said Prof Kathleen Grant at Oregon Health and Science University. The idea of the gene therapy was to try to reset this dopamine reward pathway by enhancing the function of brain cells that synthesize dopamine. Like humans, some macaque monkeys are more likely to drink heavily than others: if you begin to offer them the choice of 5% alcohol alongside their regular food and water, some monkeys will eventually almost always choose the alcohol. Grant and her colleagues wondered whether resetting their dopamine reward pathways might contain their desire to drink alcohol. To do this, they used a harmless virus to deliver the gene for a protein called glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to an area of the brain that is involved in addiction and reward. “We targeted the cell bodies that produce dopamine with this gene to increase dopamine synthesis, thus supplementing or restoring what long-term drinking has taken away,” Grant said. The research, which was published in Nature Medicine, found that the macaques permanently started overexpressing dopamine and decreased their alcohol consumption by up to 90%. “We are entering an era of gene therapy for neurological disorders and perhaps mental disorders, and I think this study is very promising in that direction.” Grant said. She added that animal studies are needed before the technique could be tested on humans. Also, because the gene therapy procedure involves brain surgery, it would probably only ever be used in the most severe cases of alcohol addiction. 12. Why do severe alcohol addicts drink more? A. Because they long for desired pleasure. B. Because they have a form of gene defect. C. Because they want to escape from reality. D. Because they suffer from deadly disability. 13. The underlined word “synthesize” in paragraph 3 can best be replaced by ________. A. Stimulate. B. Produce. C. Charge. D. Delay. 14. What did Grant’s study focus on? A. The life habit of macaque monkeys. B. The way to control alcohol addiction. C. The working mechanism of dopamine. D The function of the protein called GDNF. 15. What did Grant suggest about the gene therapy? A. Employ it to treat severe alcohol addiction only. B. Replace it with more efficient methods if necessary. C. Confirm its effectiveness with more tests on humans. D. Put it into widespread use on other common species. 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。 Growing up in a Southern family, big meals were the norm. Every meal for my nuclear family of four provided enough food for eight. Each Sunday, when we drove to my grandmother’s home for lunch, there was more than enough food. ___16___ Having more than enough was a generous and affectionate act; having too little conveyed almost a moral failing. ___17___ When having only another couple over for dinner, I’d make more food than the four of us could finish.

And in unfavorable situations, it’s an act that allows us to develop friendship and show love while we must, still, remain apart. A. Continue cooking for my family. B. Bringing the extras as meals to my friends. C. It was the one part of our new world I couldn’t refuse. D. In the shock of the change, I cooked less for about a year. E.

The bell’s ringing brought her out of her daydreaming. She nervously gathered her books, preparing to reach another classroom for the next new class. Lily followed the other kids and rushed into the hallway. Others walked in groups, chatted, and laughed, using the break to socialize. Lily, instead, walked alone along the wall of the hallway, with her head down. She was a shy girl, afraid to speak in front of other kids, and didn’t think others would like her. Lily finally sat in Mr. Johnson’s Language Arts class nervously. “Welcome to Language Arts,” said Mr. Johnson. He told jokes as he talked about English. Lily forgot to daydream and laughed along with the rest of the class. “We’ll have some fun with language,” he said. “Just wait and see.” Fun was far beyond what Lily desired. She just wanted to be like other kids—running with friends in the hallway, laughing and joking between classes. Reminded of her pimply (长粉刺的) face, she felt hopeless and disappointed. “Take out a piece of paper,” the teacher continued, when pointing at words on the blackboard. “Write for the next thirty minutes on this topic.” Lily began writing crazily as idea after idea fought for recognition in her head. The final result was a short story about a beautiful beach house. As she wrote, she could smell the salty air, hear the crashing waves and feel the pull of the sand beneath her feet. For just a moment, she forgot where she was. She was lost in the story. “OK, pass your papers forward,” said the teacher. “Let’s see what we have.” For the rest of the class time, the teacher read each individual work aloud. Lily originally thought it would be awkward. However, she was gradually attracted by the excitement in the teacher’s voice. “He’s actually enjoying this,” she thought. When the class would be soon over, there were still fifteen students’ papers not read, including Lily’s paper. Then, Mr. Johnson announced his decision, asking these students to read their work themselves in front of the class next class. 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。 Paragraph 1: A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After Lily finished her reading, the clapping from her classmates continued for a long time. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1～5 BCBAB 6～10 BACAC 11～15 BCACB 16～20 BACAA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江苏省天一中学2024-2025学年第一学期期末考试 高二英语学科 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 注意，听力部分答题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Suddenly, his daughter cried “Look!” Gelinne looked up just in time to see a small aircraft a few hundred yards away, coming down. As the plane disappeared behind the trees, Gelinne, a former sailor, realized it would land in the river. Without hesitation, he ran down to the waterfront. The plane had slid to a stop on the broad, frozen river, far from shore, sinking. The pilot was standing on the wing. Gelinne knew from his previous training that even a few minutes in the icy water could kill the pilot. Gelinne tested the ice with his foot and decided not to take any chances walking on it. So he and his son, John, pulled two kayaks (皮划艇) out. “If it can float on the water, it can slide on the ice,” Gelinne said. The kayaks’ paddles (桨) proved too weak, so the pair tried using sticks to push the boats along. Their first attempts left them spinning in circles. But with effort, they made progress. When Gelinne reached the plane, the pilot was standing on a tail wing, surrounded by open water. Gelinne pushed his kayak off the ice and into the water, paddling toward the pilot and thinking, “What if he panics? What if I fall over?” With his son nearby, Gelinne focused on keeping the pilot calm, joking, “Just hang on to the kayak as if you were hugging your wife.” The pilot grabbed the kayak’s bow. Gelinne knew he had to get the pilot onto the shelf of unbroken ice. But each time Gelinne tried, the kayak broke through the ice. He needed help. Soon a police officer arrived and radioed for help. A boat from the local Department of Natural Resources appeared. It picked up the pilot, Steve 71, and rushed him to safety, who would be treated for minor injuries. Later the boat returned to help Gelinne, exhausted, to shore. The boat had arrived just in time, Gelinne recalled. “I’m 60 years old,” he says. “There was no way I could get him to shore.” Still, he was satisfied. 4. What was Gelinne’s first reaction to the air crash? A. Hesitant. B. Concerned. C. Scared. D. Surprised. 5. What can be learned from paragraph 4? A. The plane had sunk to the bottom. B. The pilot was nearly frozen to death. C. The kayaks got stuck in floating ice. D. The rescue was tougher than expected. 6. Why did Gelinne need help? A. Because his son didn’t help him. B. Because the kayaks were broken. C. Because the ice wasn’t solid enough. D. Because the pilot was too exhausted. 7. Which of the following can best describe Gelinne? A. Honest and independent. B. Modest and intelligent. C. Helpful and humorous. D. Generous and cautious. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述一位60岁的老人Gelinne，在 12月26 日，冒着严寒，克服困难去救由于飞机失事而落入水中的飞行员Steve 的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“As the plane disappeared behind the trees, Gelinne, a former sailor, realized it would land in the river. Without hesitation, he ran down to the waterfront.(当飞机消失在树后时，曾经当过水手的杰琳意识到它将降落在河中。他毫不犹豫地跑到水边)”可知，他一看到飞机降落在河中，就毫不犹豫地跑到水边，所以推知是担心的。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The kayaks’ paddles (桨) proved too weak, so the pair tried using sticks to push the boats along. Their first attempts left them spinning in circles. But with effort, they made progress. (皮划艇的桨太弱了，所以两人试着用棍子推动小船。他们的第一次尝试让他们在原地打转。但是经过努力，他们取得了进步。)”可知，救助过程非常比预想的要困难。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“With his son nearby, Gelinne focused on keeping the pilot calm, joking, “Just hang on to the kayak as if you were hugging your wife.” The pilot grabbed the kayak’s bow. Gelinne knew he had to get the pilot onto the shelf of unbroken ice. But each time Gelinne tried, the kayak broke through the ice. He needed help.(儿子就在旁边，Gelinne专注于让飞行员保持冷静，他开玩笑说：“就像拥抱你的妻子一样，紧紧抓住皮艇。”领航员抓住皮艇的船头。Gelinne知道他必须把飞行员弄到没有破冰的架子上。但每次杰琳尝试，皮划艇都破冰而出。他需要帮助)”可知，因为冰不够坚固，导致皮划艇都破冰而出。他需要帮助。故选C项。 7题详解】 推理判断题。推理判断题。根据第二段“As the plane disappeared behind the trees, Gelinne, a former sailor, realized it would land in the river.

Like the Monkey King from Journey to the West, he was a favorite hero before the Internet came along. Havoc in Heaven《大闹天宫》, a new Peking Opera film, attracted the wider public to the charm of the traditional Chinese performance art, featuring one of the best-known chapters from Journey to the West. This film, expected to create a new channel to promote Peking Opera, includes nearly all the key ingredients of Peking Opera. It covers all the basic techniques, more than 10 classic tunes, and make-up for dozens of facial representations of different figures’ characteristics. It’s actually a big challenge to combine Peking Opera and film, each of which has its own rhythm, according to Cheng Lu, director of the film, who is adopting a fresh approach to present the traditional art form. One challenge that Cheng and his production team faced is how to balance the new approach with maintaining the fundamentals of the art. The basic principles and performance skills in Peking Opera cannot be changed. Some background images on stage, such as a painted waterfall, remain, and a live band was on the set to provide sound for the film, rather than employing the prerecorded music. “If we change traditions to cater to people’s taste and preference for a regular film, it will no longer be a Peking Opera piece of art,” Cheng said. On the other hand, some creativity was needed because Cheng and his team did not just want to document a stage performance. Computer technology is also applied to achieve some visual effects and to present impossible scenes. Peking Opera films played a powerful role in the 1960s and 70s, but they gave way to more diverse entertainment. In recent years, there has been a recovery in the popularity of Peking Opera films. However, the overuse of special effects in many film adaptations of Peking Opera plays has weakened the original charm of the stage performances. The imagination (enabled by the stage) can never be sacrificed for a film’s expression. 8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To blame young people addicted to electronic devices. B. To express older people’s concern about the young generation. C. To arouse readers’ interest in traditional Chinese performance art. D. To introduce a new Peking Opera film that the article is to deal with. 9. What did Director Cheng do while producing the film? A. He made changes to basic performance skills. B. He made use of symbols and motions equally. C. He insisted on a band playing music on the scene. D. He brought onto the stage exact details of real life. 10. What innovation did Cheng’s team make? A. They opposed a rigid recording of the performance. B. They enriched visual effects with modern technology. C. They allowed actors to repeat actions before the camera. D. They adopted real explosion scenes during the shooting. 11. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Imagination is a unique charm of Peking Opera films. B. Technology makes up for the loss of stage imagination. C. There is some possibility for a film to replace Peking Opera. D. The traditional appeal of Peking Opera should not be given up for movies. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11.

Computer technology is also applied to achieve some visual effects and to present impossible scenes.(另一方面，需要一些创造力，因为程和他的团队不仅仅想记录一场舞台表演。计算机技术也被用来实现一些视觉效果，并呈现出不可能的场景。)”可知，程的团队用现代技术丰富了视觉效果。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the overuse of special effects in many film adaptations of Peking Opera plays has weakened the original charm of the stage performances. The imagination (enabled by the stage) can never be sacrificed for a film’s expression.(然而，在许多京剧电影的改编中，特效的过度使用削弱了舞台表演的原始魅力。舞台所带来的想象力绝不能为了电影的表达而牺牲。)”可知，作者认为为了电影，不应该放弃京剧的传统魅力。故选D。 D A form of gene therapy that is already being trialled in patients with Parkinson’s disease might provide a treatment for severe alcohol addiction. Alcohol misuse is the biggest risk factor for death, disability and ill health among people aged 15 to 49 in the UK, responsible for 9,641 deaths during 2021. Like other addictive substances, alcohol triggers the release of a feelgood chemical in the brain called dopamine. However, long-term drinking decreases dopamine release, and people who are addicted to alcohol don’t tend to feel pleasure in drinking it any more. “It seems that they’re drinking more because they feel a need to maintain a drunk state,” said Prof Kathleen Grant at Oregon Health and Science University. The idea of the gene therapy was to try to reset this dopamine reward pathway by enhancing the function of brain cells that synthesize dopamine. Like humans, some macaque monkeys are more likely to drink heavily than others: if you begin to offer them the choice of 5% alcohol alongside their regular food and water, some monkeys will eventually almost always choose the alcohol. Grant and her colleagues wondered whether resetting their dopamine reward pathways might contain their desire to drink alcohol. To do this, they used a harmless virus to deliver the gene for a protein called glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to an area of the brain that is involved in addiction and reward. “We targeted the cell bodies that produce dopamine with this gene to increase dopamine synthesis, thus supplementing or restoring what long-term drinking has taken away,” Grant said. The research, which was published in Nature Medicine, found that the macaques permanently started overexpressing dopamine and decreased their alcohol consumption by up to 90%. “We are entering an era of gene therapy for neurological disorders and perhaps mental disorders, and I think this study is very promising in that direction.” Grant said. She added that animal studies are needed before the technique could be tested on humans. Also, because the gene therapy procedure involves brain surgery, it would probably only ever be used in the most severe cases of alcohol addiction. 12. Why do severe alcohol addicts drink more? A. Because they long for desired pleasure. B. Because they have a form of gene defect. C. Because they want to escape from reality. D. Because they suffer from deadly disability. 13. The underlined word “synthesize” in paragraph 3 can best be replaced by ________. A. Stimulate. B. Produce. C. Charge. D. Delay. 14. What did Grant’s study focus on? A. The life habit of macaque monkeys. B. The way to control alcohol addiction. C. The working mechanism of dopamine. D. The function of the protein called GDNF. 15. What did Grant suggest about the gene therapy? A. Employ it to treat severe alcohol addiction only. B. Replace it with more efficient methods if necessary. C. Confirm its effectiveness with more tests on humans. D. Put it into widespread use on other common species. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种已经在帕金森氏症患者身上进行试验的基因疗法可能为严重的酒精成瘾提供治疗。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Like other addictive substances, alcohol triggers the release of a feelgood chemical in the brain called dopamine. However, long-term drinking decreases dopamine release, and people who are addicted to alcohol don’t tend to feel pleasure in drinking it any more. “It seems that they’re drinking more because they feel a need to maintain a drunk state,” said Prof Kathleen Grant at Oregon Health and Science University.”（像其他成瘾物质一样，酒精会引发大脑释放一种叫做多巴胺的感觉良好的化学物质。然而，长期饮酒会减少多巴胺的释放，而且嗜酒的人往往不会再从饮酒中感到快乐。俄勒冈健康与科学大学的凯瑟琳·格兰特教授说：“似乎他们喝得更多是因为他们觉得有必要保持醉酒状态。”）可推知，重度嗜酒者喝得更多是因为他们渴望想要的快乐。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词句中“The idea of the gene therapy was to try to reset this dopamine reward pathway by enhancing the function of brain cells…”（基因疗法的想法是试图通过增强……脑细胞的功能来重置多巴胺奖励通路。）由此可知，此处为通过增强合成多巴胺的脑细胞的功能。故可猜测划线单词synthesize为“合成”的意思，结合选项B项Produce“生产，产生”意思一致。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Grant and her colleagues wondered whether resetting their dopamine reward pathways might contain their desire to drink alcohol. To do this, they used a harmless virus to deliver the gene for a protein called glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to an area of the brain that is involved in addiction and reward.”（格兰特和她的同事们想知道，重置多巴胺奖励通路是否会抑制他们喝酒的欲望。为了做到这一点，他们使用了一种无害的病毒，将一种叫做神经胶质源性神经营养因子(GDNF)的蛋白质基因传递到大脑中与成瘾和奖励有关的区域。）可知，格兰特的研究重点是控制酒瘾的方法。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Also, because the gene therapy procedure involves brain surgery, it would probably only ever be used in the most severe cases of alcohol addiction.”（此外，由于基因治疗过程涉及脑部手术，它可能只会用于最严重的酒精成瘾病例。）可知，格兰特对基因疗法的建议是仅用于治疗严重的酒精成瘾。故选A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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Growing up in a Southern family, big meals were the norm.

The bell’s ringing brought her out of her daydreaming. She nervously gathered her books, preparing to reach another classroom for the next new class. Lily followed the other kids and rushed into the hallway. Others walked in groups, chatted, and laughed, using the break to socialize. Lily, instead, walked alone along the wall of the hallway, with her head down. She was a shy girl, afraid to speak in front of other kids, and didn’t think others would like her. Lily finally sat in Mr. Johnson’s Language Arts class nervously. “Welcome to Language Arts,” said Mr. Johnson. He told jokes as he talked about English. Lily forgot to daydream and laughed along with the rest of the class. “We’ll have some fun with language,” he said. “Just wait and see.” Fun was far beyond what Lily desired. She just wanted to be like other kids—running with friends in the hallway, laughing and joking between classes. Reminded of her pimply (长粉刺的) face, she felt hopeless and disappointed. “Take out a piece of paper,” the teacher continued, when pointing at words on the blackboard. “Write for the next thirty minutes on this topic.” Lily began writing crazily as idea after idea fought for recognition in her head. The final result was a short story about a beautiful beach house. As she wrote, she could smell the salty air, hear the crashing waves and feel the pull of the sand beneath her feet. For just a moment, she forgot where she was. She was lost in the story. “OK, pass your papers forward,” said the teacher. “Let’s see what we have.” For the rest of the class time, the teacher read each individual work aloud. Lily originally thought it would be awkward. However, she was gradually attracted by the excitement in the teacher’s voice. “He’s actually enjoying this,” she thought. When the class would be soon over, there were still fifteen students’ papers not read, including Lily’s paper. Then, Mr. Johnson announced his decision, asking these students to read their work themselves in front of the class next class. 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。 Paragraph 1: A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After Lily finished her reading, the clapping from her classmates continued for a long time. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version： A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again. Lily was nervous with her head down. After other students finished reading the papers one by one, finally, it was Lily’s turn. Frozen with fear, Lily stood in front of the class, with her hands holding her paper, shaking. Seeing it, Mr. Johnson told a funny joke, which made all laugh. Feeling more relaxed, Lily began reading. She was so focused that she felt she was alone. She didn’t notice that her story soon attracted all her classmates who sat up straight, without any chatting. They were lost in her fantastic story. After Lily finished her reading, the clapping from her classmates continued for a long time. Lily was shocked. When she raised her head, she found everyone staring at her excitedly. Lily finally smiled. She found everyone in the class responded to her story positively. After that class, Lily slowly lifted her head while walking. Later, she kept writing. And she began speaking in front of people and enjoyed it. A braver and more confident girl appeared. And she was grateful to Mr. Johnson who believed in every student. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了莉莉上中学的第一周非常紧张，害怕在其他孩子面前说话，也不认为别人会喜欢她。在语言艺术课上，莉莉写了一篇作文，被老师要求在下节课当着全班同学的面朗读自己的作业。莉莉最后克服了紧张，阅读了自己的文章，得到了大家的认可，莉莉也有了自信。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，下课铃响了，语言艺术课又开始了”可知，第一段可描写莉莉在课上朗读作文的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“莉莉念完后，同学们的掌声持续了很长时间”可知，第二段可描写莉莉得到了同学的认可，获得了自信。 2.续写线索：开始上课——紧张——老师开玩笑——感觉轻松——朗读——鼓掌——获得自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 结束：finish/complete 抬起：raise/lift 注意到：notice /take notice of 情绪类 感谢的：grateful /thankful 轻松的：relaxed /relieved 【点睛】[高分句型1] Frozen with fear, Lily stood in front of the class, with her hands holding her paper, shaking.
