National Park Service (NPS) started keeping records in 1904, its mountain landscapes, seaside wildernesses, and high desert acres have registered more than 16 billion visits. Some of the best-known parks experienced record crowds in 2024. The following national parks are decent travelling and visiting destinations, but they offer just a glimpse of the variety to be found in the 429 park units of the NPS. Joshua Tree National Park Drawn by outsized rock formations and distinctive yucca brevifolia plants, 3,270,404 travelers entered Joshua Tree National Park in 2024. It offers hiking, rock-climbing, and star-gazing in the Sonora and Mojave deserts east of Los Angeles, California. Grand Teton National Park The peaks of the Teton Range, solemn and imposing, tower nearly 7,000 feet over the Wyoming valley floor, making them some of the boldest geological statements in the Rockies. Grand Teton National Park’s jewel-like lakes, blue and white glaciers, and naked granite (花岗岩) summits received 3,417,106 visitors in 2024. Yosemite National Park Nearly 4 million visitors came to this national geopark of granite cliffs and towering waterfalls in 2024. Most spent time in Yosemite Valley, a mile-wide, seven-mile-long canyon that was cut by a river and then widened and deepened by glacial action. Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone National Park — the world’s first national park — was visited by more than 4. 5 million people in 2024. The vast reserve — covering 2. 2 million acres in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana — has craggy (陡峭的) peaks, explosive geysers, alpine lakes, deep forests, and a wealth of wild animals. The stars are bison, bears, sheep, moose, and wolves. Hike with us: National Geographic’s Trails Illustrated maps highlight the best places for hiking, camping, boating, paddling, and wildlife viewing. Click here for route maps of National Parks. 21. Which of the following attracts the most travelers in 2024? A. Yosemite National Park. B. Yellowstone National Park. C. Grand Teton National Park. D. Joshua Tree National Park. 22. What do Grand Teton National Park and Yosemite National Park have in common? A. Both have steep granite cliffs. B. Both feature jewel-like alpine lakes. C. Both offer scenery of mountains and waters. D. Both are visited by more than 4 million travelers. 23. Which website can you probably find this passage? A. www. nationalgeographic. com/travel B. www. nationalgeographic. com/history C. www. nationalgeographic. com/story D. www. nationalgeographic. com/sports B On a summer trip to Maharashtra, India, Aryaman Khandelwal saw a little boy, no more than ten years old, carrying a bag of corn twice his size. “They had to work so hard to make do,” Khandelwal said, “Something needed to change. ” Then a senior at Parkland High School, Khandelwal went on to design Get2Greater over the next couple of years, an AI-driven app to improve access to healthcare services. His efforts earned him the GloriaBarron Prize, which is given to young people with significant social initiatives. The young man was passionate about improving healthcare in Maharashtra, a place that lacked qualified doctors and healthcare workers. Moreover, there were many quacks, who might quit studying after a year of medicine school and return home as “healthcare providers”. Then Khandelwal was introduced to the a MAHAN Trust, a healthcare organization serving rural parts of Maharashtra. At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health workers to carry out basic medical tasks, such as taking measurements and transporting data to hospitals for review. Through them, Khandelwal learned that only 10 to 15 trained workers served a population of 200,000. While the method showed results, it was time-consuming and required significant improvement to handle the large volume of cases more efficiently. That’s where Get2Greater came in — it separates the unhealthy from the healthy, so doctors can focus on more pressing cases. The app can record basic health-related data points, compile (汇编) them in order of priority and send them to doctors nearby. Khandelwal sent a tablet computer equipped with a basic software prototype (软件原型) to the MAHAN Trust and established a line of communication with healthcare workers there. “I asked them to provide feedback on the app,” he said. Khandelwal’s proposal won him funding and after numerous trials, he created a Wi-Fi component so the devices could connect to the local hospitals. He has also been in talks with the UN to help take the device to other parts of the world. 24. What does the underlined word “quacks” in paragraph 3 refer to ? A. Students who quit school. B. Doctors who are unqualified. C. Nurses who work in hospitals. D. Professionals who help in healthcare work. 25. What was the challenge faced by the MAHAN Trust? A. The difficulty in transporting data accurately. B. Village health workers’ unwillingness to be trained. C. Insufficient healthcare providers for vast communities. D. Lack of medical equipment for performing medical tasks. 26. How does the app Get2Greater function? A. By cutting healthcare costs for patients. B. By processing data for doctors’ attention. C. By automatically recording treatment process. D. By identifying the symptoms quickly and correctly. 27. Which of the following can best describe Khandelwal? A. Innovative and committed. B. Confident and modest. C. Humble and determined. D. Generous and ambitious. C Are athletes nearing the limits of what’s possible? Are they struggling to break records? The hammer throw (链球), for example, hasn’t seen a new world record since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently outdo themselves in other sports, such as the 400-metre sprint. Although professional athletes often boast impressive muscles, simply increasing muscle mass does not guarantee improved athletic performance. This is partly because muscles lose efficiency as they grow. More muscle mass produces extra force, but the benefits decrease as muscle mass continues to grow and muscles will eventually approach a hard limit on what they can achieve. An athlete’s dominant muscle fibre type also significantly impacts performance. Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high concentration of fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in contrast to marathon runners, who have a high concentration of slow-twitch fibres. Fast-twitch fibres are richer in energy stores, produce more powerful movements and tire us out more quickly than the slow-twitch variety. This difference sets a speed limit on high-endurance sports like long-distance running. Muscles set a ceiling on how hard athletes can work, but performance also depends on what athletes do with their muscles. In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fosbury used an innovative strategy for the high jump that raised the bar. Instead of soaring forward over the pole, he turned his body mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him to leap over the pole with less effort. Five years later, Dwight Stones perfected the “Fosbury Flop” and broke the high-jump world record using this method. Technological advancements in sportswear also significantly boost performance. Shoes equipped with carbon-plated insoles (碳板鞋垫) can give runners an advantage. This type of footwear limits energy loss, meaning the runner has to put in less work to run faster. World Athletics allows athletes to compete with these shoes as long as the soft base is no higher than about 4 centimeters, so it’s possible this sportswear could lead to new running records. Ultimately, while muscle limitations exist, innovative techniques and advancements in sportswear continue to redefine athletic potential, suggesting that records, even seemingly unbeatable ones, may yet be defeated. 28. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By raising questions on athletes’ concerns. B. By listing different sports events directly. C. By emphasizing the efficiency of muscle mass. D. By analyzing the limits of athletic performance. 29. What can be learned about the muscle fibre types according to paragraph 3? A. Fast-twitch fibres are ideal for Marathon runners. B Sprinters possess more fast-twitch fibres than marathon runners. C. Slow-twitch fibres are more powerful and tire us more quickly. D. The muscle fibre type only has a small impact on performance. 30. Why does the author mention the “Fosbury Flop”? A. To praise Stones’ breaking the world record. B. To reveal limitations in high-jump techniques. C. To illustrate the significance of physical peak in athletes. D. To prove the role of creative techniques in athletic performance. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. Only specific sports can see new records. B. Muscle mass guarantees athletic performance. C. Muscle limitations make new records impossible. D. Records may be broken with innovation and technology. D A technology with roots going back to the Bronze Age may offer a fast and inexpensive approach to helping achieve the United Nations climate goal of net zero emissions by 2050, according to recent Stanford-led research. The technology involves fitting heat-absorbing bricks in an insulated (隔热的) container, where they can store heat generated by solar or wind power for later use in industrial processes. The heat can then be released when needed by passing air through channels in the piles of “firebricks”, thus allowing cement, steel, glass, and paper factories to run on renewable energy even when wind and sunshine are unavailable. These systems are a form of thermal energy (热能) storage. The bricks are made from the same materials as the bricks that lined primitive kilns (窑) thousands of years ago. Batteries can store electricity and provide it to generate heat on demand. “The differences between firebrick storage and battery storage are that the firebricks store heat rather than electricity and that their cost is one-tenth the cost of batteries,” said lead study author Mark Z. Jacobson, a professor at Stanford University. “The materials are basically just the components of dirt. ” The researchers adopted computer models to compare costs, land needs, health impacts, and emissions involved in two scenarios for an imagined future where 149 countries in 2050 are using renewable sources for all energy purposes. In one scenario, firebricks provide 90% of industrial process heat. In the other, there’s zero adoption of firebricks or other forms of thermal energy storage. The researchers found the scenario with firebricks could cut costs by $1.27 trillion across the 149 countries, while reducing the demand for electrical energy and energy storage capacity from batteries. Jacobson’s focus on firebricks is relatively new, inspired by a desire to identify effective solutions that could be adopted quickly. “Here I can see a substantial benefits at low cost from multiple angles, from helping reduce air pollution deaths to making it easier to turn the world to clean energy,” he said. 32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. How firebrick storage technology works. B. How firebricks are produced sustainably. C. What thermal energy means scientifically. D. What thermal energy storage is used to do. 33. What advantages do firebrick have over battery? A. Firebrick can store heat and cost less. B. Firebrick can generate more electricity. C. Firebrick can provide heat more quickly. D. Firebrick is made of more advanced materials. 34. Why are the computer models adopted? A. To test the durability of firebricks. B. To cut the costs of firebricks. C. To explore the effectiveness of firebricks. D. To test energy storage capacity of firebricks. 35. What might be a suitable title for the text? A. The usage of firebricks can replace batteries. B. Embracing renewable electricity becomes possible. C. Innovative systems turn heat into electricity cheaply. D. An old technology can aid the switch to clean energy. 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。 Socrates, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famously stated, “The unexamined life is not worth living.”___36___ He believed true wisdom and personal growth couldn’t be achieved in an unexamined life. The Socratic Method, named after Socrates himself, is a form of cooperative dialogue where one asks a series of open-ended questions to guide another toward insight and understanding. For example, imagine a teacher discussing moralities with students. The teacher may not explain what is “right” or “wrong”. ___37___ And follow up with questions like, “Why do we consider some actions fair and others unfair?” Through this questioning, students are led to think more critically and examine their own values and assumptions rather than just accepting the predetermined answers. ___38___When you ask yourself, for instance, “Why do you believe this?” or “What evidence supports your thinking?”, you are encouraged to consider whether your beliefs are truly your own or influenced by external factors. This process of questioning leads to self-reflection, helping individuals better understand the underlying motivations behind their thoughts and actions. Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life. ___39___And it also looks closely at your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. An unexamined life, however, is one where people go through the motions without ever questioning. Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re swept along by society’s expectations. ___40___It seems as if you’re living someone else’s script without ever writing your own. A. It gives you a moment to step back. B. You are barely aware of your own desires. C. So they can follow a “right” or “fair” action. D. You are always stuck in your own ceaseless work. E. The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination. F. Instead, he or she might ask “What does it mean to act morally?” G. This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one’s own thoughts. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a little kid, I was fascinated by the inner workings of every device in my family’s home. I would spend hours assembling (装配) radios, ___41___ and other household appliances, trying to figure out how they worked. Assembly is more like solving a ___42___ than a step-by-step process. Some ___43___ adults were amazed at this, but to me, a blind kid ___44___ the world, it felt perfectly natural. Blindness is a hands-on process. Decades later, when I studied at the University of California, I ___45___ familiar barriers because the campus lacked accessible lab equipment for the disabled — they didn’t ___46___ blind kids to be studying physics. ___47___, I found blind tutors who taught me to ___48___ some of my own accessible equipment. This attempt ultimately paved the way for me to become an ___49___ inventor and scientist. My personal story sparked my ___50___ to create more tools to help people like me to navigate the scientific world. With this newfound mission, I started reaching out to others who shared my ___51___. Ultimately, we founded a nonprofit organization dedicated to making science accessible to the blind. Today, our nonprofit organization ___52___ the gap for blind students, and the successful stories of our members ___53___ a testament to the power of perseverance and adaptability. Just as our society is learning to recognize and ___54___ racism, sexism, and other biases, we need to become more broadly capable of spotting and eliminating disability discrimination.

Serving as a nice haven for numerous homeless animals, it offered food, shelter and care. One day, young Jack and Grace walked by the shelter and noticed a sign for a voluntary service. Jack was absorbed immediately, “Grace, just take into consideration those sad animals in urgent need of help. Let’s join to be volunteers.” Grace, however, showed somewhat uncertainty, “I am not sure, Jack, voluntary service takes hard work, and we have school to go to and something else to do.” Jack insisted, “just think about what a meaningful difference we would make to the homeless animals. Don’t hesitate! Do it now!” Eventually, Grace nodded. Both Jack and Grace ran to the animal shelter and sprang into action. Sweeping the shelter, feeding the animals and having games with them were great fun for them. With days passing, they became attached to the lovely creatures and felt a sense of pride. On one Sunday afternoon full of sunshine, when making nice meals for the lovely, Jack happened to hear a conversation, leaving him worried. The shelter’s director, Mr. Frank, was telling a worker a financial crisis Paws Home was faced with. As donations were declining and running costs were rising, the shelter was on the verge (边缘) of being closed. “The shelter will stop in the near future”, sighed Mr. Frank. Jack told Grace the news promptly. Surely, both of them felt how urgent it was to find a way out. “We can’t wait doing nothing,” Grace said, resolve shining in her eyes, “we have to take action again.” They immediately put forward a good plan: stage a community fundraising called “An Evening for Paws” — animals talent show, bake sale and auction (拍卖) on the square. The weeks that followed saw how busy they were. Jack persuaded some local shops to donate pet supplies, baked goods, and art works for the auction. At the same time, Grace promoted the event online, attracting attention fast. She designed posters which would appear in the neighborhood. 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 came the day when the community fundraising started. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Overexcited, Mr. Frank, couldn’t be more grateful to everyone. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 湖北省“新八校”协作体2025年高三2月联考高三英语试卷 试卷满分：150分 注意事项： 1. 答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，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。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?

I’m here today to talk to you about the history of weather forecasting. Records from as far back as 600 BCE from Babylon, in ancient Iraq, suggest that cloud shapes were used to make forecasts. Different animal behaviors were used to predict short-term weather patterns in Japan and many other nations. Methods of weather forecasting remained unchanged for the next 2,000 years or so, until technological breakthroughs led to greater accuracy. The first of these, in the mid-15th century, measured how damp air was. The first thermometer, which was used to measure temperature, was created in the late 16th century and improved weather predictions. By the start of the 20th century, a Norwegian scientist employed mathematical calculations for forecasts, starting in 1904. It was time-consuming, as computers hadn’t been invented yet. In the 1920s, electrical equipment for recording weather-related data had become more reliable. Airplanes of the time were still unable to fly high enough to gather relevant information, so balloons performed this role instead, as they were able to travel up to 30 kilometers above the earth’s surface before bursting. Since the first satellite to be sent into space specifically to help with forecasts was launched in 1960, this technology has been a continuous presence above earth. 第二部分 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A National Parks You Should Never Miss Since the U. S. National Park Service (NPS) started keeping records in 1904, its mountain landscapes, seaside wildernesses, and high desert acres have registered more than 16 billion visits. Some of the best-known parks experienced record crowds in 2024. The following national parks are decent travelling and visiting destinations, but they offer just a glimpse of the variety to be found in the 429 park units of the NPS. Joshua Tree National Park Drawn by outsized rock formations and distinctive yucca brevifolia plants, 3,270,404 travelers entered Joshua Tree National Park in 2024. It offers hiking, rock-climbing, and star-gazing in the Sonora and Mojave deserts east of Los Angeles, California. Grand Teton National Park The peaks of the Teton Range, solemn and imposing, tower nearly 7,000 feet over the Wyoming valley floor, making them some of the boldest geological statements in the Rockies. Grand Teton National Park’s jewel-like lakes, blue and white glaciers, and naked granite (花岗岩) summits received 3,417,106 visitors in 2024. Yosemite National Park Nearly 4 million visitors came to this national geopark of granite cliffs and towering waterfalls in 2024. Most spent time in Yosemite Valley, a mile-wide, seven-mile-long canyon that was cut by a river and then widened and deepened by glacial action. Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone National Park — the world’s first national park — was visited by more than 4. 5 million people in 2024. The vast reserve — covering 2. 2 million acres in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana — has craggy (陡峭的) peaks, explosive geysers, alpine lakes, deep forests, and a wealth of wild animals. The stars are bison, bears, sheep, moose, and wolves.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了美国国家公园管理局旗下的几处国家公园，包括约书亚树国家公园、大提顿国家公园、优胜美地国家公园和黄石国家公园，还提及了它们的特色和2024年的游客数量。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Joshua Tree National Park部分中“Drawn by outsized rock formations and distinctive yucca brevifolia plants, 3,270,404 travelers entered Joshua Tree National Park in 2024.(2024年，3270404名游客被巨大的岩层和独特的短叶丝兰植物所吸引，进入了约书亚树国家公园)”；Grand Teton National Park部分中“Grand Teton National Park’s jewel like lakes, blue and white glaciers, and naked granite summits received 3,417,106 visitors in 2024.(2024年，大提顿国家公园如宝石般的湖泊、蓝白色的冰川和裸露的花岗岩山峰接待了3417106名游客)”；Yosemite National Park部分中“Nearly 4 million visitors came to this national geopark of granite cliffs and towering waterfalls in 2024.(2024年，近400万游客来到这个拥有花岗岩悬崖和高耸瀑布的国家地质公园)”； Yellowstone National Park部分中“Yellowstone National Park — the world’s first national park — was visited by more than 4. 5 million people in 2024.(2024年，世界上第一个国家公园——黄石国家公园接待了超过450万游客)”可知，2024年黄石国家公园(Yellowstone National Park)吸引的游客最多。故选B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Grand Teton National Park部分中“The peaks of the Teton Range, solemn and imposing, tower nearly 7, feet over the Wyoming valley floor, making them some of the boldest geological statements in the Rockies. Grand Teton National Park’s jewel like lakes, blue and white glaciers, and naked granite (花岗岩) summits received 3,417,106 visitors in 2024.(提顿山脉的山峰庄严雄伟，比怀俄明州的谷底高出近7英尺，使其成为落基山脉中最引人注目的地质景观之一。2024年，大提顿国家公园如宝石般的湖泊、蓝白色的冰川和裸露的花岗岩山峰接待了3417106名游客)”和Yosemite National Park部分中“Nearly 4 million visitors came to this national geopark of granite cliffs and towering waterfalls in 2024. Most spent time in Yosemite Valley, a mile wide, seven mile long canyon that was cut by a river and then widened and deepened by glacial action.(2024年，近400万游客来到这个拥有花岗岩悬崖和高耸瀑布的国家地质公园。大多数人会在约塞米蒂山谷停留，这是一个一英里宽、七英里长的峡谷，它先是被一条河流切割，然后因冰川作用而变宽加深)”可知，大提顿国家公园有山峰、湖泊、冰川等景观，优胜美地国家公园有悬崖、瀑布等景观，二者都有山水景观。故选C项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章标题“National Parks You Should Never Miss(你绝不能错过的国家公园)”以及最后一段“Hike with us: National Geographic’s Trails Illustrated maps highlight the best places for hiking, camping, boating, paddling, and wildlife viewing. Click here for route maps of National Parks.(和我们一起徒步旅行：《国家地理》的徒步路线图突出了徒步、露营、划船、划桨和观赏野生动物的最佳地点。点击此处获取国家公园的路线图)”可知，文章主要介绍国家公园的旅游相关信息，所以最有可能在国家地理的旅游板块找到这篇文章。故选A项。 B On a summer trip to Maharashtra, India, Aryaman Khandelwal saw a little boy, no more than ten years old, carrying a bag of corn twice his size. “They had to work so hard to make do,” Khandelwal said, “Something needed to change. ” Then a senior at Parkland High School, Khandelwal went on to design Get2Greater over the next couple of years, an AI-driven app to improve access to healthcare services. His efforts earned him the GloriaBarron Prize, which is given to young people with significant social initiatives. The young man was passionate about improving healthcare in Maharashtra, a place that lacked qualified doctors and healthcare workers. Moreover, there were many quacks, who might quit studying after a year of medicine school and return home as “healthcare providers”. Then Khandelwal was introduced to the a MAHAN Trust, a healthcare organization serving rural parts of Maharashtra. At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health workers to carry out basic medical tasks, such as taking measurements and transporting data to hospitals for review. Through them, Khandelwal learned that only 10 to 15 trained workers served a population of 200,000. While the method showed results, it was time-consuming and required significant improvement to handle the large volume of cases more efficiently. That’s where Get2Greater came in — it separates the unhealthy from the healthy, so doctors can focus on more pressing cases. The app can record basic health-related data points, compile (汇编) them in order of priority and send them to doctors nearby. Khandelwal sent a tablet computer equipped with a basic software prototype (软件原型) to the MAHAN Trust and established a line of communication with healthcare workers there. “I asked them to provide feedback on the app,” he said. Khandelwal’s proposal won him funding and after numerous trials, he created a Wi-Fi component so the devices could connect to the local hospitals. He has also been in talks with the UN to help take the device to other parts of the world. 24. What does the underlined word “quacks” in paragraph 3 refer to ? A. Students who quit school. B. Doctors who are unqualified. C. Nurses who work in hospitals. D. Professionals who help in healthcare work. 25. What was the challenge faced by the MAHAN Trust? A. The difficulty in transporting data accurately. B. Village health workers’ unwillingness to be trained. C. Insufficient healthcare providers for vast communities. D. Lack of medical equipment for performing medical tasks. 26. How does the app Get2Greater function? A. By cutting healthcare costs for patients. B. By processing data for doctors’ attention. C. By automatically recording treatment process. D. By identifying the symptoms quickly and correctly. 27. Which of the following can best describe Khandelwal? A. Innovative and committed. B. Confident and modest. C. Humble and determined. D. Generous and ambitious. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Aryaman Khandelwal看到印度马哈拉施特拉邦医疗现状后，历时数年设计出Get2Greater应用程序以改善医疗服务的故事。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“a place that lacked qualified doctors and healthcare workers(缺乏合格医生和保健工作者的地方)”和后文“who might quit studying after a year of medicine school and return home as ‘healthcare providers’.(他们可能在医学院学习一年后就辍学回家，然后以‘医疗服务提供者’自居)”可知，这个地方缺乏合格的医生，他们没有完成医学学习就开始提供医疗服务，显然是没有资质的。所以，划线词quacks指的是“没有资质的医生；江湖郎中”，与同义“Doctors who are unqualified.”。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health workers to carry out basic medical tasks, such as taking measurements and transporting data to hospitals for review. Through them, Khandelwal learned that only 10 to 15 trained workers served a population of 200,000.(当时，MAHAN信托正在培训乡村卫生工作者执行基本医疗任务，例如测量和将数据传送到医院进行审查。通过他们，Khandelwal了解到只有10到15名训练有素的卫生工作者为20万人口服务)”可知，MAHAN信托面临的挑战是广大社区的医疗服务提供者不足。故选C项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“That’s where Get2Greater came in — it separates the unhealthy from the healthy, so doctors can focus on more pressing cases. The app can record basic health related data points, compile (汇编) them in order of priority and send them to doctors nearby.(这就是Get2Greater发挥作用的地方——它能将不健康的人与健康的人区分开来，这样医生就可以专注于更紧急的病例。该应用程序可以记录基本的健康相关数据点，按优先级汇编这些数据，并将其发送给附近的医生)”可知，Get2Greater应用程序通过处理数据让医生关注更紧急的病例来发挥作用。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Then a senior at Parkland High School, Khandelwal went on to design Get2Greater over the next couple of years, an AI driven app to improve access to healthcare services.(当时还是帕克兰高中高年级学生的Khandelwal，在接下来的几年里继续设计了Get2Greater，这是一款由人工智能驱动的应用程序，旨在改善医疗服务的可及性)”以及Khandelwal后续不断改进应用程序等一系列努力可知，他有创新精神且有坚定的决心和投入。所以他是创新且有奉献精神的。故选A项。 C Are athletes nearing the limits of what’s possible? Are they struggling to break records? The hammer throw (链球), for example, hasn’t seen a new world record since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently outdo themselves in other sports, such as the 400-metre sprint. Although professional athletes often boast impressive muscles, simply increasing muscle mass does not guarantee improved athletic performance. This is partly because muscles lose efficiency as they grow. More muscle mass produces extra force, but the benefits decrease as muscle mass continues to grow and muscles will eventually approach a hard limit on what they can achieve. An athlete’s dominant muscle fibre type also significantly impacts performance. Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high concentration of fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in contrast to marathon runners, who have a high concentration of slow-twitch fibres. Fast-twitch fibres are richer in energy stores, produce more powerful movements and tire us out more quickly than the slow-twitch variety. This difference sets a speed limit on high-endurance sports like long-distance running. Muscles set a ceiling on how hard athletes can work, but performance also depends on what athletes do with their muscles. In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fosbury used an innovative strategy for the high jump that raised the bar. Instead of soaring forward over the pole, he turned his body mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him to leap over the pole with less effort. Five years later, Dwight Stones perfected the “Fosbury Flop” and broke the high-jump world record using this method. Technological advancements in sportswear also significantly boost performance. Shoes equipped with carbon-plated insoles (碳板鞋垫) can give runners an advantage. This type of footwear limits energy loss meaning the runner has to put in less work to run faster. World Athletics allows athletes to compete with these shoes as long as the soft base is no higher than about 4 centimeters, so it’s possible this sportswear could lead to new running records. Ultimately, while muscle limitations exist, innovative techniques and advancements in sportswear continue to redefine athletic potential, suggesting that records, even seemingly unbeatable ones, may yet be defeated. 28. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By raising questions on athletes’ concerns. B. By listing different sports events directly. C. By emphasizing the efficiency of muscle mass. D. By analyzing the limits of athletic performance. 29. What can be learned about the muscle fibre types according to paragraph 3? A. Fast-twitch fibres are ideal for Marathon runners. B. Sprinters possess more fast-twitch fibres than marathon runners. C. Slow-twitch fibres are more powerful and tire us more quickly. D. The muscle fibre type only has a small impact on performance. 30. Why does the author mention the “Fosbury Flop”? A. To praise Stones’ breaking the world record. B. To reveal limitations in high-jump techniques. C. To illustrate the significance of physical peak in athletes. D. To prove the role of creative techniques in athletic performance. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. Only specific sports can see new records. B. Muscle mass guarantees athletic performance. C. Muscle limitations make new records impossible. D. Records may be broken with innovation and technology. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了运动员在接近体能极限时，如何通过创新技术和运动装备的进步来继续打破世界纪录的可能性。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Are athletes nearing the limits of what’s possible? Are they struggling to break records? The hammer throw (链球), for example, hasn’t seen a new world record since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently outdo themselves in other sports, such as the 400-metre sprint.(运动员是否正在接近可能的极限？他们是否在努力打破纪录？例如，链球项目自1986年以来就没有出现过新的世界纪录。然而，在其他体育项目中，如400米短跑，运动员们却经常能够超越自我)”可知，作者通过提出通过提出运动员所关心的两个问题来引入话题。故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high concentration of fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in contrast to marathon runners, who have a high concentration of slow-twitch fibres.(短跑运动员拥有高浓度的快肌纤维，而马拉松运动员则拥有高浓度的慢肌纤维)”可知，短跑运动员比马拉松运动员拥有更多的快肌纤维。故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fosbury used an innovative strategy for the high jump that raised the bar. Instead of soaring forward over the pole, he turned his body mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him to leap over the pole with less effort. Five years later, Dwight Stones perfected the “Fosbury Flop” and broke the high-jump world record using this method.(在1968年的奥运会上，Dick Fosbury采用了一种创新的跳高策略，这一策略提高了跳高的标杆。他不是像传统那样面向前方飞跃过杆，而是在空中转身。这种向后跳跃的方式使他能够以较小的努力跃过横杆。五年后，Dwight Stones完善了“Fosbury Flop”，并使用这种方法打破了跳高世界纪录)”可知，Dick Fosbury创新了跳高运动的姿势。五年后Dwight Stones利用“Fosbury Flop”打破了世界纪录。由此可推知，作者提到“Fosbury Flop”是为了证明创新性的技巧在帮助运动员的表现上起作用。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意。根据全文内容及最后一段“Ultimately, while muscle limitations exist, innovative techniques and advancements in sportswear continue to redefine athletic potential, suggesting that records, even seemingly unbeatable ones, may yet be defeated.(最终，尽管肌肉存在局限性，但创新的技术和运动装备的进步不断重新定义运动员的潜力，这表明即使是看似无法打破的记录也有可能被刷新)”可知，文章的整体观点是，尽管存在肌肉的生理限制，但通过技巧创新和运动装备的科技进步，仍旧有可能打破现有的运动纪录。由此可推知，创新和科技的应用将有助于打破纪录。故选D项。 D A technology with roots going back to the Bronze Age may offer a fast and inexpensive approach to helping achieve the United Nations climate goal of net zero emissions by 2050, according to recent Stanford-led research. The technology involves fitting heat-absorbing bricks in an insulated (隔热的) container, where they can store heat generated by solar or wind power for later use in industrial processes. The heat can then be released when needed by passing air through channels in the piles of “firebricks”, thus allowing cement, steel, glass, and paper factories to run on renewable energy even when wind and sunshine are unavailable. These systems are a form of thermal energy (热能) storage. The bricks are made from the same materials as the bricks that lined primitive kilns (窑) thousands of years ago. Batteries can store electricity and provide it to generate heat on demand. “The differences between firebrick storage and battery storage are that the firebricks store heat rather than electricity and that their cost is one-tenth the cost of batteries,” said lead study author Mark Z. Jacobson, a professor at Stanford University. “The materials are basically just the components of dirt. ” The researchers adopted computer models to compare costs, land needs, health impacts, and emissions involved in two scenarios for an imagined future where 149 countries in 2050 are using renewable sources for all energy purposes. In one scenario, firebricks provide 90% of industrial process heat. In the other, there’s zero adoption of firebricks or other forms of thermal energy storage. The researchers found the scenario with firebricks could cut costs by $1.27 trillion across the 149 countries, while reducing the demand for electrical energy and energy storage capacity from batteries. Jacobson’s focus on firebricks is relatively new, inspired by a desire to identify effective solutions that could be adopted quickly. “Here I can see a substantial benefits at low cost from multiple angles, from helping reduce air pollution deaths to making it easier to turn the world to clean energy,” he said. 32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. How firebrick storage technology works. B. How firebricks are produced sustainably. C. What thermal energy means scientifically. D. What thermal energy storage is used to do. 33. What advantages do firebrick have over battery? A. Firebrick can store heat and cost less. B. Firebrick can generate more electricity. C. Firebrick can provide heat more quickly. D. Firebrick is made of more advanced materials. 34. Why are the computer models adopted? A. To test the durability of firebricks. B. To cut the costs of firebricks. C. To explore the effectiveness of firebricks. D. To test energy storage capacity of firebricks. 35. What might be a suitable title for the text? A. The usage of firebricks can replace batteries. B. Embracing renewable electricity becomes possible. C. Innovative systems turn heat into electricity cheaply. D. An old technology can aid the switch to clean energy. 【答案】32. A 33. A 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了古老火砖技术如何通过储存热能，帮助实现工业过程的可再生能源使用，从而助力全球净零排放目标的实现。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The technology involves fitting heat-absorbing bricks in an insulated (隔热的) container, where they can store heat generated by solar or wind power for later use in industrial processes. The heat can then be released when needed by passing air through channels in the piles of “firebricks”, thus allowing cement, steel, glass, and paper factories to run on renewable energy even when wind and sunshine are unavailable. These systems are a form of thermal energy (热能) storage.(这项技术涉及在隔热容器中安装吸热砖，这些砖可以储存由太阳能或风能产生的热量，以便在工业过程中后续使用。当需要时，可以通过在“耐火砖”堆中的通道通过空气来释放热量，从而使水泥、钢铁、玻璃和造纸厂能够在没有风和阳光的情况下依然依靠可再生能源运行。这些系统是热能存储的一种形式)”可知，本段详细说明了耐火砖储能技术是将吸热砖组装在隔热容器中，用来储存太阳能或风能产生的热量以便之后使用等内容，即这项技术的工作原理。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的““The differences between firebrick storage and battery storage are that the firebricks store heat rather than electricity and that their cost is one-tenth the cost of batteries,” said lead study author Mark Z. Jacobson, a professor at Stanford University.(“耐火砖存储与电池存储的区别在于，耐火砖储存的是热量而不是电力，并且其成本仅为电池的十分之一，”该研究的主要作者、斯坦福大学的教授马克·雅各布森说道)”可知，耐火砖储能与电池储能的差异在于耐火砖储存热量而非电力，且成本是电池的十分之一。故选A项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The researchers found the scenario with firebricks could cut costs by $1.27 trillion across the 149 countries, while reducing the demand for electrical energy and energy storage capacity from batteries.(研究人员发现，使用耐火砖的场景可以在这149个国家中削减1.27万亿美元的成本，同时减少对电能的需求以及来自电池的储能容量需求)”可知，研究者用模型对比两种未来可再生能源场景，涉及耐火砖在其中的作用及优势，故推知，采用计算机模型是为了探索耐火砖的有效性。故选C项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容及第一段“A technology with roots going back to the Bronze Age may offer a fast and inexpensive approach to helping achieve the United Nations climate goal of net zero emissions by 2050, according to recent Stanford-led research.(根据最近由斯坦福大学主导的研究，一种可以追溯到青铜时代的科技可能提供了一种快速且成本低廉的方法来帮助实现联合国2050年净零排放的气候目标)”可知，文章主要介绍了一种可追溯到青铜时代的耐火砖储能技术，该技术有助于实现联合国净零排放目标，即能够助力向清洁能源的转变。因此，选项D“一项古老的技术可以帮助转向清洁能源”作为标题最为合适。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的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。 Socrates, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famously stated, “The unexamined life is not worth living.”___36___ He believed true wisdom and personal growth couldn’t be achieved in an unexamined life. The Socratic Method, named after Socrates himself, is a form of cooperative dialogue where one asks a series of open-ended questions to guide another toward insight and understanding. For example, imagine a teacher discussing moralities with students. The teacher may not explain what is “right” or “wrong”. ___37___ And follow up with questions like, “Why do we consider some actions fair and others unfair?” Through this questioning, students are led to think more critically and examine their own values and assumptions rather than just accepting the predetermined answers. ___38___When you ask yourself, for instance, “Why do you believe this?” or “What evidence supports your thinking?”, you are encouraged to consider whether your beliefs are truly your own or influenced by external factors. This process of questioning leads to self-reflection, helping individuals better understand the underlying motivations behind their thoughts and actions. Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life. ___39___And it also looks closely at your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. An unexamined life, however, is one where people go through the motions without ever questioning. Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re swept along by society’s expectations. ___40___It seems as if you’re living someone else’s script without ever writing your own. A. It gives you a moment to step back. B. You are barely aware of your own desires. C. So they can follow a “right” or “fair” action. D. You are always stuck in your own ceaseless work. E. The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination. F. Instead, he or she might ask “What does it mean to act morally?” G. This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one’s own thoughts. 【答案】36. G 37. F 38. E 39. A 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以苏格拉底的名言“未经审视的生活是不值得过的”为切入点，介绍了苏格拉底方法，并阐述了自我反思的重要性以及未经审视的生活的弊端。 【36题详解】 上文“Socrates, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famously stated, ‘The unexamined life is not worth living.’(著名的古希腊哲学家苏格拉底有句名言：‘未经审视的生活是不值得过的’)”引出了苏格拉底的这句名言。G选项“This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one’s own thoughts.(这句有力的宣言呼吁人们更深入地挖掘自己的思想)”对这句名言进行了进一步解读，说明其作用是引导人们深入思考自己的思想，与上文逻辑紧密。故选G项。 【37题详解】 上文“The teacher may not explain what is ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.(老师可能不会解释什么是‘对’或‘错’)”表明老师不会直接给出对错的定义。F选项“Instead, he or she might ask ‘What does it mean to act morally?’(相反，他或她可能会问 ‘道德行事意味着什么? ’)”与上文形成转折，说明老师会通过提问的方式引导学生思考，符合苏格拉底方法中通过提问引导他人思考的特点，上下文衔接自然。故选F项。 【38题详解】 下文“When you ask yourself, for instance, ‘Why do you believe this?’ or ‘What evidence supports your thinking?’(例如，当你问自己‘你为什么相信这个?’或‘有什么证据支持你的想法?’)”具体说明了自我审视时的提问方式。E选项“The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination.(苏格拉底方法是一种强大的自我审视工具)”起到了承上启下的作用，既承接上文对苏格拉底方法的介绍，又引出下文关于自我审视的具体内容。故选E项。 【39题详解】 上文“Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life.(自我反思就像按下生活的暂停键)”将自我反思比喻为暂停键。A选项“It gives you a moment to step back.(它给你一个退后一步思考的时刻)”进一步解释了按下暂停键的意义，即让人有时间退后一步思考，与上文逻辑一致。故选A项。 【40题详解】 上文“Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re swept along by society’s expectations.(过一种未经审视的生活就像在自动驾驶状态下滑行，人们只是简单地接受社会标准而不进行批判性评估。在这种生活中，你会被社会的期望所裹挟)”描述了未经审视的生活的状态。B选项“You are barely aware of your own desires.(你几乎意识不到自己的欲望)”进一步说明了在这种生活状态下的结果，即人们会忽略自己的欲望，上下文语意连贯。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a little kid, I was fascinated by the inner workings of every device in my family’s home.

Serving as a nice haven for numerous homeless animals, it offered food, shelter and care. One day, young Jack and Grace walked by the shelter and noticed a sign for a voluntary service. Jack was absorbed immediately, “Grace, just take into consideration those sad animals in urgent need of help. Let’s join to be volunteers.” Grace, however, showed somewhat uncertainty, “I am not sure, Jack, voluntary service takes hard work, and we have school to go to and something else to do.” Jack insisted, “just think about what a meaningful difference we would make to the homeless animals. Don’t hesitate! Do it now!” Eventually, Grace nodded. Both Jack and Grace ran to the animal shelter and sprang into action. Sweeping the shelter, feeding the animals and having games with them were great fun for them. With days passing, they became attached to the lovely creatures and felt a sense of pride. On one Sunday afternoon full of sunshine, when making nice meals for the lovely, Jack happened to hear a conversation, leaving him worried. The shelter’s director, Mr. Frank, was telling a worker a financial crisis Paws Home was faced with. As donations were declining and running costs were rising, the shelter was on the verge (边缘) of being closed. “The shelter will stop in the near future”, sighed Mr. Frank. Jack told Grace the news promptly. Surely, both of them felt how urgent it was to find a way out. “We can’t wait doing nothing,” Grace said, resolve shining in her eyes, “we have to take action again.” They immediately put forward a good plan: stage a community fundraising called “An Evening for Paws” — animals talent show, bake sale and auction (拍卖) on the square. The weeks that followed saw how busy they were. Jack persuaded some local shops to donate pet supplies, baked goods, and art works for the auction.
