B The history of the jungle gym (攀爬架) is full of interesting and unexpected turns that touch on child development theories and theoretical math. Charles Hinton was a Princeton mathematician who explored the fourth dimention. While living in Japan, he struggled to help his students fully grasp the concept and theorized that since we mostly walk in straight lines, and don’t use the three-dimensional space, it’s hard to make the mental leap to the fourth dimension. His solution was to train his own kids. Hinton built a series of layered bamboo blocks and labeled the bamboo in all three directions, and at each point, he put X, Y, Z coordinates (坐标) to show specific locations. Then he attempted to turn them into a game. “He would say, ‘X2, Y4, Z3 — go! And all the kids would race each other towards the correct coordinate,’” says Fannin, a Ph. D. candidate at Dartmouth College. Years later, Hinton’s son Sebastian would recall how much fun it was to climb and swing on them. By now it was the early 1920s, and the junior Hinton had moved to Winnetka which at this time was a hotbed for progressive education. He dreamed of recreating the bamboo climbing structure of his youth — minus the not very fun math games — and he started describing his plans at a dinner party one night. As Hinton was describing it, the dinner party was packed with educators. One principal’s eyes widened before telling Hinton, “We need to build this in the schools!” Soon after, Hinton began filing his early patents for the design, which he registered to something he called JungleGym Inc. If that dinner party had taken place anywhere else in the world, this famous piece of equipment may never have existed. 4. Why did Charles Hinton build the bamboo structure for his children? A. To help them acquire a sense of direction. B. To train the ability to solve tough problems. C. To impress them with a new outdoor game. D. To promote the understanding of the 3D space. 5. How did the principal react to Hinton’s description of the climbing structure? A. He was amused by its playful nature. B. He questioned its educational benefits. C. He was drawn to the innovative design. D. He viewed the idea as overly ambitious. 6. Which of the following best describes Sebastian Hinton? A. Humorous. B. Visionary. C. Devoted. D. Observant. 7. What can we see from the appearance of the jungle gym? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Constant dripping wears away the stone. C. Necessity is the mother of invention. D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. C Hadeda ibises, known as “African alarm clocks” for their loud calls, have long legs and thin beaks (鸟喙) and shiny feathers on their wings. Historically restricted to northeastern South Africa, hadedas have significantly expanded their range to many urban areas. Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this“sixth sense” and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. We conducted sensory tests with hadedas in bird cages. We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them. Further testing revealed that hadedas found worms more quickly in wetter soils. If the soil was too dry, they lost this ability and had to rely on random searching. These findings suggest that the hadedas’ expansion in SouthAfrica is related to increased artificial watering systems. They require wet soil to use remote-touch effectively,which could explain their absence in dry regions. Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. The study highlights the broader implications for other remote-touch hunting birds, many of which are already endangered. As soil moisture levels decrease, these birds could become more at risk, stressing the importance of considering sensory requirements in conservation efforts. 8. What do we know about hadeda ibises? A. They are known for shiny feathers. B. They barely see any rise in numbers. C. They recall images of the dinosaurs. D. They have a specialized sensory organ. 9. Why were white noise and dead worms used in the experiment? A. To get a more reliable result. B. To add experimental items. C. To copy natural habitats. D. To avoid disturbing the subjects. 10. What does the research suggest about the impact of climate change on hadedas? A. Climate change will decrease their reliance on soil moisture. B. Droughts could make it more difficult for them to find prey. C. Increased rainfall will help them relocate to urbanized areas. D. Rising temperatures could increase their feeding efficiency. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The specialty of hadedas’ organs. B. The masters of dry land hunting. C. Hadedas’ prey detection in wet soil. D. Hadedas ibises’ urban expansion. D If you could take a pill to “cure” your loneliness, would you take it? The “loneliness epidemic (流行病)” has been widely reported and commented upon across the world in recent years, affecting young and old. There have even been numerous urgent calls by governments to address it. However, some researchers question whether we really have the credible data to back up such claims. Should we struggle to eradicate it, as we would a virus or a disease? Psychologist James Hillman had concerns about viewing loneliness as a pathology (病理学). He noted that solutions like socializing in recovery groups suggest we should get rid of loneliness. But Hillman argued that if loneliness is a natural part of us, it will naturally come and go throughout our lives, regardless of our efforts to avoid it. I have spent much of my career researching loneliness, conducting hundreds of interviews and observing its many versions across all ages. My findings suggest that loneliness is not a single feeling but a label for a range of human experiences and unmet needs related to disconnection, which may be inevitable at times. In my book All the Lonely People: Conversations on Loneliness, I present various examples of loneliness, drawn from numerous projects and interviews, each offering a glimpse into different aspects of this condition. Stories help us identify what loneliness looks like and how it is lived. They also show that loneliness is part of most people’ s life journeys. Accepting this reality may be more sensible than pathologizing it, which can create shame and force people to hide their loneliness. This is not to ignore loneliness, which is challenging and difficult. But stories allow us to share our loneliness,unburden ourselves, and connect with others. The suffering in loneliness often originates from being alone with it. Ultimately, the answer to loneliness may lie in learning to live alongside it, rather than denying its existence or trying to root it out. 12. What does the underlined word “eradicate” most probably mean? A. Remove. B. Change. C. Highlight. D. Identify. 13. What is the author’s research approach to studying loneliness? A. Observing physical responses in trials. B. Collecting a variety or typical cases C. Reviewing published research papers. D. Taking a questionnaire survey analysis. 14. What is the main purpose of the author sharing “stories”? A. To inform how loneliness varies with age. B. To emphasize the importance of storytelling. C. To show complexities of human loneliness. D. To express his sympathy for the suffering. 15. What is the author’s suggestion for the issue of loneliness? A. Overcome it by staying busy. B. Engage with social activities. C Coexist peacefully with it. D. Turn to experts for guidance. 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。 Top Tips for Writing Richer Characters What’s the secret to writing the best story of your life? It starts with characterization. ____16____ Through your characters’ eyes, readers not only understand your world but also see themselves in your characters. Relatable characters help readers learn lessons that impact them long after finishing the book. So how do you build strong characters? Make them human. Your goal is to create unique characters. Uniqueness requires more than simply combining strange personal qualities. You have to dig deeper than that. ____17____ You must know where the characters come from and how their past experiences will influence their future choices. Your characters also need self-motivation and faults to be believable. They won’t feel reliable if they’re only moving as agents of the plot, and the story won’t either. No human can see themselves as perfect and faultless. ____18____For a character to be relatable, a reader needs to see themselves in that character. ____19____ When your characters make bad choices, it doesn’t destroy the story. Your story is about those characters’ choices. Allow your characters to experience the consequences of their bad decisions. So, you can develop your characters further throughout the rest of your story. Make sure you document how your characters grow. Otherwise, they become bound by the plot and lose their relatability. Describe the central conflict from hero’s and opponent’s view. A deep understanding of both sides is vital to creating balance in your story. Both characters have motivations, desires, and fears, making the conflict richer and more engaging. It prevents any character from falling into stereotypes (刻板印象). ____20____ A. Make a path of progress. B. Focus on their backstory. C. Understand what your readers want. D. Great stories develop from believable characters. E. Your human readers will reject a perfect character. F. A good character possesses many positive personal qualities. G. Instead, they become multi-dimensional with their own logic. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15 小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。查阅试卷 When I had my baby developing inside me for 21 weeks and suddenly gained 15 kilograms while throwing up every time I ate or drank I knew something was seriously ____21____ .

The clock survived several years packed away in the attic (阁楼) of my grandparents’ house. Gradually, life got better. Slowly. Mom had taken the clock out of the box once after she and Dad had bought their first home. She had dusted it off, placed it on top of a bookcase in the new living room, and wound it. The clock would not tick (滴答响). It would not chime(报时). “Maybe,” she said with tears in her eyes, “it's been too long.” She placed it back in the box,and stored it in her attic. There, in the attic, the clock sat. Not ticking. Not chiming. For years. In those years I had finished high school, then college. I had gotten married. I was blessed with the two most beautiful children, almost 2 and 4. I had bought a house with a fireplace and a mantle(壁炉架). Mom came over to our new house with a box. “I had the clock fixed. Oh, you’ll love it!” she said to my wife. “It had the most beautiful chime.” Mom took the clock out of the box and placed it on our mantle. She wound the clock. The chime of my childhood was back. And the chime really was beautiful. There, on the mantle, the clock sat. Ticking. Chiming. For months. Then, one day, the clock stopped ticking and chiming. With tears in her eyes, Mom wanted to store the clock in the box. “No,” I said, “We’ ll leave it sit right there. That clock is too beautiful to live in a box.” I offered up a lame joke:“And, anyway, at least it will be right twice a day.” There, on the mantle, the clock sat. Not ticking. Not chiming. For more than a year. Now it was late. Very late. It was Christmas time. I continued to be busy helping Saff to the parent Christmas gifts. 注意： 1.续写词数应150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then, something strange happened. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Christmas morning my wife noticed it first. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1~5 BCCAB 6~10BABCC 11~15 ACBAA 16~20 CCACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试 高三第一次联合诊断检测 英语 英语测试卷共8页，满分 150分。考试时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。第一节 (共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的 A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Charles Hinton was a Princeton mathematician who explored the fourth dimention. While living in Japan, he struggled to help his students fully grasp the concept and theorized that since we mostly walk in straight lines, and don’t use the three-dimensional space, it’s hard to make the mental leap to the fourth dimension. His solution was to train his own kids. Hinton built a series of layered bamboo blocks and labeled the bamboo in all three directions, and at each point, he put X, Y, Z coordinates (坐标) to show specific locations. Then he attempted to turn them into a game. “He would say, ‘X2, Y4, Z3 — go! And all the kids would race each other towards the correct coordinate,’” says Fannin, a Ph. D. candidate at Dartmouth College. Years later, Hinton’s son Sebastian would recall how much fun it was to climb and swing on them. By now it was the early 1920s, and the junior Hinton had moved to Winnetka which at this time was a hotbed for progressive education. He dreamed of recreating the bamboo climbing structure of his youth — minus the not very fun math games — and he started describing his plans at a dinner party one night. As Hinton was describing it, the dinner party was packed with educators. One principal’s eyes widened before telling Hinton, “We need to build this in the schools!” Soon after, Hinton began filing his early patents for the design, which he registered to something he called JungleGym Inc. If that dinner party had taken place anywhere else in the world, this famous piece of equipment may never have existed. 4. Why did Charles Hinton build the bamboo structure for his children? A. To help them acquire a sense of direction. B. To train the ability to solve tough problems. C. To impress them with a new outdoor game. D. To promote the understanding of the 3D space. 5. How did the principal react to Hinton’s description of the climbing structure? A. He was amused by its playful nature. B. He questioned its educational benefits. C. He was drawn to the innovative design. D. He viewed the idea as overly ambitious. 6. Which of the following best describes Sebastian Hinton? A. Humorous. B. Visionary. C. Devoted. D. Observant. 7. What can we see from the appearance of the jungle gym? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Constant dripping wears away the stone. C. Necessity is the mother of invention. D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了攀爬架的发明历史，源于Charles Hinton为帮助孩子理解三维空间而设计的竹制结构。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“While living in Japan, he struggled to help his students fully grasp the concept and theorized that since we mostly walk in straight lines, and don’t use the three-dimensional space, it’s hard to make the mental leap to the fourth dimension.(在日本生活时，他努力帮助学生全面理解这个概念，并认为，由于我们大多走直线，不使用三维空间，因此很难在思维上跳跃到四维)”以及第三段中“His solution was to train his own kids. Hinton built a series of layered bamboo blocks and labeled the bamboo in all three directions, and at each point, he put X, Y, Z coordinates to show specific locations.(他解决办法是训练自己的孩子。Hinton建造了一系列分层的竹块，并在三个方向上给竹子贴上标签，在每个点上，他都放上X、Y、Z坐标来表示特定的位置)”可知，Charles Hinton为他的孩子们建造竹制结构是为了促进他们对三维空间的理解。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“One principal’s eyes widened before telling Hinton, “We need to build this in the schools!”(一位校长睁大了眼睛，然后对Hinton说：“我们需要在学校里建这个！”)”可知，校长被这种新颖的设计所吸引。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“He dreamed of recreating the bamboo climbing structure of his youth — minus the not very fun math games — and he started describing his plans at a dinner party one night.(他梦想着重现他年轻时的竹制攀爬结构——去掉那些不太有趣的数学游戏——并在一天晚上的晚宴上开始描述他的计划)”以及后文攀爬架得以在学校建造可知，Sebastian Hinton具有远见卓识，敢于创新。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“While living in Japan, he struggled to help his students fully grasp the concept and theorized that since we mostly walk in straight lines, and don’t use the three-dimensional space, it’s hard to make the mental leap to the fourth dimension.(在日本生活期间，他努力帮助他的学生完全理解这个概念，并提出了这样的理论：由于我们大多走直线，不使用三维空间，所以很难在思想上跨越到第四维度)”和第三段中“His solution was to train his own kids. Hinton built a series of layered bamboo blocks and labeled the bamboo in all three directions, and at each point, he put X, Y, Z coordinates (坐标) to show specific locations. Then he attempted to turn them into a game.(他的解决办法是训练自己的孩子。Hinton建造了一系列分层的竹块，并在三个方向上标记竹子，在每个点上，他用X， Y， Z坐标来显示特定的位置。然后他试图把它们变成一种游戏)”可知，因为有帮助理解空间概念的需求，才促使攀爬架被发明出来，所以“Necessity is the mother of invention.(需要是发明之母)”符合攀爬架出现所体现的道理。故选C项。 C Hadeda ibises, known as “African alarm clocks” for their loud calls, have long legs and thin beaks (鸟喙) and shiny feathers on their wings. Historically restricted to northeastern South Africa, hadedas have significantly expanded their range to many urban areas. Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this“sixth sense” and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. We conducted sensory tests with hadedas in bird cages. We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them. Further testing revealed that hadedas found worms more quickly in wetter soils. If the soil was too dry, they lost this ability and had to rely on random searching. These findings suggest that the hadedas’ expansion in SouthAfrica is related to increased artificial watering systems. They require wet soil to use remote-touch effectively,which could explain their absence in dry regions. Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. The study highlights the broader implications for other remote-touch hunting birds, many of which are already endangered. As soil moisture levels decrease, these birds could become more at risk, stressing the importance of considering sensory requirements in conservation efforts. 8. What do we know about hadeda ibises? A. They are known for shiny feathers. B. They barely see any rise in numbers. C. They recall images of the dinosaurs. D. They have a specialized sensory organ. 9. Why were white noise and dead worms used in the experiment? A. To get a more reliable result. B. To add experimental items. C. To copy natural habitats. D. To avoid disturbing the subjects. 10. What does the research suggest about the impact of climate change on hadedas? A. Climate change will decrease their reliance on soil moisture. B. Droughts could make it more difficult for them to find prey. C. Increased rainfall will help them relocate to urbanized areas. D. Rising temperatures could increase their feeding efficiency. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The specialty of hadedas’ organs. B. The masters of dry land hunting. C. Hadedas’ prey detection in wet soil. D. Hadedas ibises’ urban expansion. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了噪鹮的特征，通过实验研究其利用“远程触觉”感知猎物的能力与土壤湿度的关系，以及气候变化对其的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Various ibises use remote touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. (各种朱鹭利用远程触觉来探测土壤中猎物的移动并定位它们的藏身之处。这种能力得益于它们喙中的一种感觉器官，叫做喙尖器官，它在恐龙时代就已经形成了)”可知，噪鹮有一个专门的感觉器官。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote touch to find them. (我们给它们提供装有埋着虫子的土壤盒子，用白噪音掩盖任何声音，并将死虫子混入土壤中以消除气味线索。这些鸟总是比找到死虫子更快地找到活虫子，这表明它们能够感知猎物的移动并利用远程触觉来找到它们)”可知，使用白噪音和死虫子是为了排除声音和气味线索的干扰，从而得到更可靠的实验结果，证明噪鹮是通过远程触觉感知猎物的。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. (随着气候变化，预计干旱和热浪将加剧，这可能会使猎物探测变得更具挑战性，从而威胁到它们的数量)”可知，干旱会让噪鹮更难找到猎物。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this ‘sixth sense’ and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. (我最近的研究证实，噪鹮有这种‘第六感’，并发现它与土壤湿度水平密切相关)”以及后文围绕噪鹮在不同湿度土壤中探测猎物的研究内容可知，本文主要讲的是噪鹮在湿润土壤中探测猎物的情况。故选C项。 D If you could take a pill to “cure” your loneliness, would you take it? The “loneliness epidemic (流行病)” has been widely reported and commented upon across the world in recent years, affecting young and old. There have even been numerous urgent calls by governments to address it. However, some researchers question whether we really have the credible data to back up such claims. Should we struggle to eradicate it, as we would a virus or a disease? Psychologist James Hillman had concerns about viewing loneliness as a pathology (病理学). He noted that solutions like socializing in recovery groups suggest we should get rid of loneliness. But Hillman argued that if loneliness is a natural part of us, it will naturally come and go throughout our lives, regardless of our efforts to avoid it. I have spent much of my career researching loneliness, conducting hundreds of interviews and observing its many versions across all ages. My findings suggest that loneliness is not a single feeling but a label for a range of human experiences and unmet needs related to disconnection, which may be inevitable at times. In my book All the Lonely People: Conversations on Loneliness, I present various examples of loneliness, drawn from numerous projects and interviews, each offering a glimpse into different aspects of this condition. Stories help us identify what loneliness looks like and how it is lived. They also show that loneliness is part of most people’ s life journeys. Accepting this reality may be more sensible than pathologizing it, which can create shame and force people to hide their loneliness. This is not to ignore loneliness, which is challenging and difficult. But stories allow us to share our loneliness,unburden ourselves, and connect with others. The suffering in loneliness often originates from being alone with it. Ultimately, the answer to loneliness may lie in learning to live alongside it, rather than denying its existence or trying to root it out. 12. What does the underlined word “eradicate” most probably mean? A. Remove. B. Change. C. Highlight. D. Identify. 13. What is the author’s research approach to studying loneliness? A. Observing physical responses in trials. B. Collecting a variety or typical cases C. Reviewing published research papers. D. Taking a questionnaire survey analysis. 14. What is the main purpose of the author sharing “stories”? A. To inform how loneliness varies with age. B. To emphasize the importance of storytelling. C. To show complexities of human loneliness. D. To express his sympathy for the suffering. 15. What is the author’s suggestion for the issue of loneliness? A. Overcome it by staying busy. B. Engage with social activities. C. Coexist peacefully with it. D. Turn to experts for guidance. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了孤独的本质以及我们对待它的态度。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“If you could take a pill to “cure” your loneliness, would you take it?(如果你能吃一颗药丸来“治愈”你的孤独，你会吃吗？)”和下文“...as we would a virus or a disease (就像我们对付病毒或疾病一样)”可知，作者把治疗孤独和治疗病毒或者疾病相类比，询问我们是否应该像对付病毒或疾病那样，吃一颗药丸来治愈或消除它，划线词eradicate意为“消除”，与Remove同义。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I have spent much of my career researching loneliness, conducting hundreds of interviews and observing its many versions across all ages. My findings suggest that loneliness is not a single feeling but a label for a range of human experiences and unmet needs related to disconnection, which may be inevitable at times. In my book All the Lonely People: Conversations on Loneliness, I present various examples of loneliness, drawn from numerous projects and interviews, each offering a glimpse into different aspects of this condition. (我职业生涯的大部分时间都在研究孤独，进行了数百次采访，观察了各个年龄段的不同版本。我的研究结果表明，孤独不是一种单一的感觉，而是一系列人类经历和未满足的需求的标签，这些需求与断开联系有关，有时可能是不可避免的。在我的书《所有孤独的人：关于孤独的对话》中，我展示了各种各样的孤独的例子，这些例子来自于许多项目和采访，每一个都提供了对这种情况的不同方面的一瞥)”可知，作者通过访谈和观察，并且整合了多个项目和访谈中的案例，为研究提供了丰富的细节和真实情境。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Stories help us identify what loneliness looks like and how it is lived. They also show that loneliness is part of most people’ s life journeys. Accepting this reality may be more sensible than pathologizing it, which can create shame and force people to hide their loneliness. (故事帮助我们确定孤独是什么样子的，以及它是如何生活的。它们还表明，孤独是大多数人生命旅程的一部分。接受这一现实可能比病态化更明智，因为病态化会让人感到羞耻，迫使人们隐藏自己的孤独)”可知，故事帮助人们理解并接受孤独是一种自然的人生经历，而不是让孤独成为一种羞耻或病理化的问题。所以作者通过故事展现孤独在人们生活中的不同表现形式，帮助读者认识到孤独的复杂性。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Ultimately, the answer to loneliness may lie in learning to live alongside it, rather than denying its existence or trying to root it out. (最终，孤独的答案可能在于学会与它共存，而不是否认它的存在或试图根除它)”可知，作者建议与其试图完全消除孤独，不如学会与孤独和平共处。故选C。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Top Tips for Writing Richer Characters What’s the secret to writing the best story of your life? It starts with characterization. ____16____ Through your characters’ eyes, readers not only understand your world but also see themselves in your characters. Relatable characters help readers learn lessons that impact them long after finishing the book. So how do you build strong characters? Make them human. Your goal is to create unique characters. Uniqueness requires more than simply combining strange personal qualities. You have to dig deeper than that. ____17____ You must know where the characters come from and how their past experiences will influence their future choices. Your characters also need self-motivation and faults to be believable. They won’t feel reliable if they’re only moving as agents of the plot, and the story won’t either. No human can see themselves as perfect and faultless. ____18____For a character to be relatable, a reader needs to see themselves in that character. ____19____ When your characters make bad choices, it doesn’t destroy the story. Your story is about those characters’ choices. Allow your characters to experience the consequences of their bad decisions. So, you can develop your characters further throughout the rest of your story. Make sure you document how your characters grow. Otherwise, they become bound by the plot and lose their relatability. Describe the central conflict from hero’s and opponent’s view. A deep understanding of both sides is vital to creating balance in your story. Both characters have motivations, desires, and fears, making the conflict richer and more engaging. It prevents any character from falling into stereotypes (刻板印象). ____20____ A. Make a path of progress. B. Focus on their backstory. C. Understand what your readers want. D. Great stories develop from believable characters. E. Your human readers will reject a perfect character. F. A good character possesses many positive personal qualities. G. Instead, they become multi-dimensional with their own logic. 【答案】16. D 17. B 18. E 19. A 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了如何在写作中塑造更丰富的人物角色。 【16题详解】 空前“What’s the secret to writing the best story of your life? It starts with characterization.(写出人生中最好的故事的秘诀是什么？首先是人物塑造)”说明写出好的故事的秘诀是人物塑造，所以好故事源于可信的人物，D项“伟大的故事源于可信的人物”与上文语义一致，符合语境，故选D。 【17题详解】 空后“You must know where the characters come from and how their past experiences will influence their future choices.(你必须知道角色来自哪里，以及他们过去的经历将如何影响他们未来的选择)”说明你必须知道角色来自哪里，以及他们过去的经历将如何影响他们未来的选择，是强调角色的背景故事，B项“关注他们的背景故事”引出下文，符合语境，故选B。 【18题详解】 前文“Your characters also need self-motivation and faults to be believable. They won’t feel reliable if they’re only moving as agents of the plot, and the story won’t either. No human can see themselves as perfect and faultless.(你的角色也需要自我激励和错误才能让人相信。如果他们只是作为情节的代理人而移动，他们就不会觉得可靠，故事也不会。没有人能认为自己是完美无瑕的)”主要说如果角色只是推动情节发展的工具，那么故事就会不真实，角色人物需要有血有肉，有缺点，因为没有人是完美的，角色也是如此，空后“For a character to be relatable, a reader needs to see themselves in that character.(为了让一个角色产生共鸣，读者需要在这个角色身上看到自己)”说明为了让一个角色产生共鸣，读者需要在这个角色身上看到自己，所以E项“你的人类读者会拒绝一个完美的角色”符合上下文语义，故选E。 【19题详解】 根据后文“So, you can develop your characters further throughout the rest of your story. Make sure you document how your characters grow. Otherwise, they become bound by the plot and lose their relatability.(所以，你可以在接下来的故事中进一步发展你的角色。确保你记录了你的角色是如何成长的。否则，他们就会被情节所束缚，失去相关性)”可知，你可以在接下来的故事中进一步发展你的角色，务必记录下角色的成长过程，所以本段主题是为角色的发展规划一条路径，A项“开辟一条前进之路”符合语境，故选A。 【20题详解】 根据本段内容“Describe the central conflict from hero’s and opponent’s view. A deep understanding of both sides is vital to creating balance in your story. Both characters have motivations, desires, and fears, making the conflict richer and more engaging. It prevents any character from falling into stereotypes(刻板印象).(从英雄和对手的角度描述中心冲突。深刻理解双方对于创造故事的平衡至关重要。两个角色都有动机、欲望和恐惧，使冲突更加丰富和吸引人。它可以防止任何角色陷入刻板印象)”可知，本段讲要从“正”“反”角色视角出发描述核心冲突。每个角色都有各自的动机、欲望和恐惧，这使得冲突更加丰富且引人入胜，可以避免任何一个角色陷入刻板印象，这样才能塑造有逻辑的多维全面的角色，故G项“相反，它们以自己的逻辑成为多维的”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15 小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。查阅试卷 When I had my baby developing inside me for 21 weeks and suddenly gained 15 kilograms while throwing up every time I ate or drank I knew something was seriously ____21____ .

The clock survived several years packed away in the attic (阁楼) of my grandparents’ house. Gradually, life got better. Slowly. Mom had taken the clock out of the box once after she and Dad had bought their first home. She had dusted it off, placed it on top of a bookcase in the new living room, and wound it. The clock would not tick (滴答响). It would not chime(报时). “Maybe,” she said with tears in her eyes, “it's been too long.” She placed it back in the box,and stored it in her attic. There, in the attic, the clock sat. Not ticking. Not chiming. For years. In those years I had finished high school, then college. I had gotten married. I was blessed with the two most beautiful children, almost 2 and 4. I had bought a house with a fireplace and a mantle(壁炉架). Mom came over to our new house with a box. “I had the clock fixed. Oh, you’ll love it!” she said to my wife. “It had the most beautiful chime.” Mom took the clock out of the box and placed it on our mantle. She wound the clock. The chime of my childhood was back. And the chime really was beautiful. There, on the mantle, the clock sat. Ticking. Chiming. For months. Then, one day, the clock stopped ticking and chiming. With tears in her eyes, Mom wanted to store the clock in the box. “No,” I said, “We’ ll leave it sit right there. That clock is too beautiful to live in a box.” I offered up a lame joke:“And, anyway, at least it will be right twice a day.” There, on the mantle, the clock sat. Not ticking. Not chiming. For more than a year. Now it was late. Very late. It was Christmas time. I continued to be busy helping Saff to the parent Christmas gifts. 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。 Then, something strange happened. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Christmas morning my wife noticed it first. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then, something strange happened. The clock began to chime — on the hour. I stopped. Finally realizing I was hearing my own small Christmas miracle early, I stopped preparing the gifts. I sat on my couch and I listened. I listened to the seconds and minutes tick by. I listened to my Christmas miracle ticking away. Afraid that the magic of Christmas morning would die, I reluctantly went to bed striving to hear the ticking. The next morning, there, on the mantle, the clock sat. Ticking. Chiming. On Christmas morning, my wife noticed it first. “What? How? Did you have it fixed? What did you do?” I smiled with tears in my eyes and told her I tried to fix it not long ago but failed. It was really a miracle that it worked again at Christmas! My children noticed the ticking and chiming and told me all about how Santa must have come and fixed the clock as he came down the chimney. Later that day, my parents came over for Christmas dinner and marveled at the miracle. The Christmas miracle was trying to tell me to cherish every moment and to tell me that it is never too late for hope. 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕一个时钟展开，讲述了它见证家庭起伏及带来圣诞奇迹的故事。父母失业时，时钟被存放在祖父母家阁楼，后父母买房，母亲拿出时钟，却发现它不再走动，又将其放回阁楼。多年后，作者成家生子，母亲修好时钟送来，它在作者家走了几个月后又停了。圣诞前夕，作者正忙于准备礼物时，时钟突然再次响起，这一圣诞奇迹让全家人惊喜不已，它也让作者领悟到要珍惜每一刻，希望永不嫌迟。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后，奇怪的事情发生了。”可知，第一段可描写作者听到钟开始报时以及对圣诞节的期待。 ②由第二段首句内容“在圣诞节的早晨，我妻子首先注意到了。”可知，第二段可描写作者家人对时钟重新工作感到惊讶以及作者的感受。 2.续写线索：奇怪的事情发生了——钟开始报时——作者静静地听——妻子注意到——感到惊讶——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②修理：fix/mend ③珍惜：cherish/treasure 情绪类 ①不情愿地：reluctantly/unwillingly ②害怕的：afraid/frightened 【点睛】[高分句型1] Finally realizing I was hearing my own small Christmas miracle early, I stopped preparing the gifts.(运用了现在分词作状语和省略that的宾语从句) [高分句型2] My children noticed the ticking and chiming and told me all about how Santa must have come and fixed the clock as he came down the chimney.(运用了how引导的宾语从句和as引导的时间状语从句) 1~5 BCCAB 6~10BABCC 11~15 ACBAA 16~20 CCACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
