The followings are the ones to be in your travelling list.(中国热门电子游戏《黑神话：悟空》最近在中国北部山西省引发了旅游业的激增。在游戏中出现的36个古建筑遗址中，有27个位于山西。以下是你的旅行清单)”可知，这篇文章的目标读者是感兴趣的游客。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Yungang Grottoes represent the peak of Buddhist cave art from the 5th and 6th centuries.(云冈石窟代表了5、6世纪佛教洞穴艺术的巅峰)”以及第三段“Recognized as an “art museum of Liao and Jin dynasties”, the temple contains ancient art treasures of statues and wall paintings, and plays a vital role in Buddhist culture and Chinese architecture.(被公认为“辽金艺术博物馆”的少林寺，藏有雕像和壁画等古代艺术珍品，在佛教文化和中国建筑中起着至关重要的作用)”可知，云冈石窟和华严寺的共同之处是都有佛教元素的作品。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Xuankong Temple, standing as a cultural landmark of Datong, is built into a cliff at Hengshan Mountain, about 60 meters above the ground, which attracts numerous thrill lovers from all over the country per year. Constructed during the late Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534), Xuankong Temple is renowned for its daring location.(悬空寺是大同的文化地标，建在距地面约60米的衡山悬崖上，每年吸引着来自全国各地的无数惊险爱好者。悬空寺建于北魏晚期（386-534），以其大胆的地理位置而闻名)”可知，悬空寺的特别之处在于其冒险的位置。故选B。 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. 【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. 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去救人，所以他是热于助人的，以及第五段“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.”(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。”)”可推知Gelinne 是个幽默的人，所以Gelinne是乐于助人又幽默的。故选C项。 C Scientists have created the first full-sized digital model of the Titanic. The model will allow scientists to study the Titanic in ways that have never been possible before. The Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912. It was the largest ship of its time, and was thought to be unable to go down below the surface of water. But four days after it left Southampton, England, the Titanic hit an iceberg (冰山) and sank early the next day, killing some 1,500 people. The sinking is one of the most famous disasters in history. The Titanic broke into two pieces, and sank to the sea floor, about 3.8 kilometers below the surface of the ocean. The location of the wreck (沉船) wasn’t discovered until 1985. Since then, many research teams have visited the site with undersea robots, whose trips have resulted in lots of pictures and videos of the wreck. But even these only allow scientists to study one area of the wreck at a time. Now, two companies — an undersea technology company called Magellan and the movie company Atlantic Productions — have created a 3-D model of the Titanic by sending two undersea robots down to the Titanic. The robots recorded both of the main pieces of the Titanic (the front and the back), as well as other hits of the wreck on the sea floor. Over six weeks, they took high-quality videos and over 715,000 pictures, based on which scientists created the 3-D model of the Titanic. Using it, users will be able to see the ship from all angles. The companies say the 3-D model will help scientists, enabling them to study the Titanic in great detail and study how the Titanic broke down, which could help them learn more about thousands of other shipwrecks also lying on the sea floor. And of course, scientists hope the model will help them better understand what happened when the Titanic sank. 8. What does the author say about the Titanic? A. It was supposedly unsinkable. B. Its sinking is the best-known disaster. C. Its voyage should last for 4 days. D. It tops the list of England's ships in size. 9. What message is conveyed in the third paragraph? A. More studies are encouraged on the Titanic. B. Enthusiasm for the Titanic never fades away. C. The exploration of the Titanic is far from easy. D. New discoveries have been made about the Titanic. 10. Which of the following plays a key role in creating the 3-D model? A. The previous findings about the shipwreck. B. The devotion of the scientists. C. The cooperation between the two companies. D. The complete picture of the wreck. 11. The 3-D model is expected to ___________. A. help rebuild other shipwrecks underwater B. give scientists new insights into the Titanic C. allow the public to fully admire the Titanic D. reproduce the grandness of the large ship 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍科学家们建造了一个全尺寸的泰坦尼克号3D模型，该模型将有助于科学家以前所未有的方式研究泰坦尼克号。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912. It was the largest ship of its time, and was thought to be unable to go down below the surface of water.(泰坦尼克号于1912年在大西洋沉没。这是当时最大的船，人们认为它无法潜入水面以下)”可知，泰坦尼克号被认为不会下沉，即泰坦尼克号据说是不沉的船。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The Titanic broke into two pieces, and sank to the sea floor, about 3.8 kilometers below the surface of the ocean. The location of the wreck (沉船) wasn’t discovered until 1985. Since then, many research teams have visited the site with undersea robots, whose trips have resulted in lots of pictures and videos of the wreck. But even these only allow scientists to study one area of the wreck at a time.(泰坦尼克号断裂成两半，沉入海底，距离海面约3.8公里。残骸的位置直到1985年才被发现。从那以后，许多研究小组带着水下机器人参观了这个地方，这些机器人的旅行产生了大量的残骸照片和视频。但即使这样，科学家一次也只能研究沉船的一个区域)”可知，科学家带着水下机器人潜到海底，一次也只能研究沉船的一个区域，所以研究泰坦尼克号难度很大。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Now, two companies — an undersea technology company called Magellan and the movie company Atlantic Productions — have created a 3-D model of the Titanic by sending two undersea robots down to the Titanic. The robots recorded both of the main pieces of the Titanic (the front and the back), as well as other hit s of the wreck on the sea floor. Over six weeks, they took high-quality videos and over 715,000pictures, based on which scientists created the 3-D model of the Titanic.(现在，两家公司——一家名为麦哲伦的海底科技公司和一家名为大西洋制作的电影公司——通过向泰坦尼克号发射两个海底机器人，创造了一个泰坦尼克号的3D模型。机器人记录了泰坦尼克号的两个主要部分（前部和后部），以及沉船在海底的其他撞击。在六周的时间里，他们拍摄了高质量的视频和71.5万多张照片，科学家们在此基础上创建了泰坦尼克号的3D模型)”可知，机器人记录了泰坦尼克号的全貌，拍摄了高质量的视频和超过71.5万张照片，科学家们以这些为基础，创建了泰坦尼克号的3D模型。由此可知，水下机器人收集的泰坦尼克号全貌信息对创建3D模型至关重要。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The companies say the 3-D model will help scientists, enabling them to study the Titanic in great detail and study how the Titanic broke down, which could help them learn more about thousands of other shipwrecks also lying on the sea floor. And of course, scientists hope the model will help them better understand what happened when the Titanic sank.(两家公司表示，3D模型将帮助科学家，使他们能够非常详细地研究泰坦尼克号，并研究泰坦尼克号是如何分解的，这可以帮助他们更多地了解海底其他数千艘沉船。当然，科学家们希望这个模型能帮助他们更好地了解泰坦尼克号沉没时发生了什么。)”可知，这两家公司称3D模型能帮助科学家们，让他们能够仔细地研究泰坦尼克号，调查泰坦尼克号是怎么出故障的，并帮助他们更好地了解泰坦尼克号沉没时发生了什么。由此可知，3D模型将使科学家们对泰坦尼克号有新的、深入的了解。故选B项。 D Aspects of your personality can be revealed in a heartbeat, literally, a new study from Germany suggests. The study identified heartbeat “signatures”— wave patterns in the heart's electrical activity —that were linked with personality traits. People with certain heartbeat signatures scored higher on tests of neuroticism (神经过敏) — meaning these individuals tend to experience more negative emotions, such as anxiety and a depressed mood, and fewer positive emotions, including happiness and cheerfulness. The study involved 425 university students ages 18 to 33. The students completed personality tests, and had their heart electrical activity measured using electrocardiography (心电图). “With this method, we have found something that is perhaps more accurate, and more relatable, than many other measures of personality,” said study researcher Stefan Koelsch, a professor of biological psychology at the Freie University Berlin. The results suggest such heartbeat signatures may provide a more objective way to measure personality than current methods, the researchers say. Personality is commonly assessed using questionnaires, but these may suffer from bias — people may choose responses that they think are more acceptable for their gender, or they may misunderstand their own traits. Researchers may also be able to identify heartbeat signatures that are characteristic of certain emotional disorders, such as depression, or of cardiovascular diseases, Koelsch said. Such signatures could one day help diagnose these disorders, or identify people at risk for them, he said. Previously, Koelsch and colleagues found a link between certain heart electrical activity patterns and people with “cold” personalities, who tend not to show emotion. In the new study, similar patterns were seen among those with high scores in neuroticism and low scores in positive emotion, like compassion and empathy. Although Koelsch suspects that this type of electrical pattern is not particularly healthy, future research is needed to confirm this. Eventually, Koelsch hopes to be able to see whether certain interventions, such as listening to music or watching films, change emotional states and the heart's electrical activity, he said. 12. What does “signatures” refer to in Paragraph 1? A. The scores of neuroticism tests. B. People’s personality traits. C. The researchers’ written names. D. The wave patterns of your heart. 13. What do researchers think about the common assessment of personality? A. It is more objective and much healthier. B. It is likely to be prejudiced and misunderstood. C. It is based on heart electrical activity measures. D. It is more accurate and more relatable to people. 14. According to the study, what can be learned about “cold” people? A. They tend to score lower in neuroticism tests. B. They tend to suffer from cardiovascular disease. C. They tend to be less compassionate and empathetic. D. They tend to gain higher degrees in positive emotions. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A Heartbeats hint your personality traits. B. Heartbeat signatures heal depression. C. Heartbeats change your emotional states. D. Heartbeats indicates the electrical activity. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过心电图检测心跳“签名”模式可以揭示个性特征，并可能用于诊断情感障碍或心血管疾病。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The study identified heartbeat “signatures”— wave patterns in the heart’s electrical activity —that were linked with personality traits.(这项研究发现了与个性特征相关的心跳“签名”——即心电活动中的波形模式)”可知，心跳“签名”指的是“心电活动中的波形模式”。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Personality is commonly assessed using questionnaires, but these may suffer from bias — people may choose responses that they think are more acceptable for their gender, or they may misunderstand their own traits.(个性通常使用问卷进行评估，但这些问卷可能存在偏见——人们可能会选择他们认为更适合自己性别的答案，或者他们可能会误解自己的特征)”可知，研究人员认为常见的性格评估可能存在偏见和误解。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Previously, Koelsch and colleagues found a link between certain heart electrical activity patterns and people with “cold” personalities, who tend not to show emotion. In the new study, similar patterns were seen among those with high scores in neuroticism and low scores in positive emotion, like compassion and empathy.(此前，Koelsch及其同事发现，某些心电活动模式与具有“冷漠”个性的人之间存在联系，这些人往往不表露情感。在新的研究中，类似的模式也在那些神经质得分较高、积极情绪（如同情心和同理心）得分较低的人群中被观察到)”可推知，根据研究，“冷漠”的人往往缺乏同情和同理心。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Aspects of your personality can be revealed in a heartbeat, literally, a new study from Germany suggests. The study identified heartbeat “signatures”— wave patterns in the heart's electrical activity —that were linked with personality traits.(德国的一项新研究表明，你的人格特质可以实实在在地通过心跳展现出来。该研究发现了与人格特质相关的心跳“签名”——即心电活动中的波形模式)”可知，本文通过介绍一项德国的研究，阐述了心跳“签名”与个性特征之间的联系，并探讨了这种方法可用于诊断情感障碍和心血管疾病。故选A。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 I have coached people from all walks of life for 25 years and I have seen first-hand that self-belief is what sets people up to be happy and achieve their dreams. ___16___ 1) Build your identity When I sat down to write my first book, Be Your Own Life Coach, I was filled with self-doubt; I couldn’t write a word and considered backing out.

I called home from a pay phone, and my little sister, Alex, said four envelopes had arrived: Georgetown, Cornell, William and Mary and the University of Massachusetts. She then opened and read them to me in her ten-year-old voice: “We regret that we do not have a place for you...” Rejected from Georgetown. “You were one of many qualified candidates...” Rejected from Cornell. And number seventy-three on a waiting list of seventy-five at William and Mary. Accepted to U Mass, my safety school. I didn’t digest the rejections immediately. I toured the United Nations, took train home and went back to school. Then I realized that other people had gotten into schools they really wanted to go to. Up to that point in my seventeen years, I hadn’t really failed at anything. I got good grades, made the school team and scored well on my SATs. I hadn’t experienced any major disappointments in my life, no deaths, no disease, no divorce, no cavities (龋齿) even. So being rejected seemed disastrous. I had always assumed I’d go to one of the“good schools.”I really wanted to be chosen: This is the place for smart people, and we want you. U Mass, on the other hand, had the reputation of being a party school to which, come September, I’d be headed with the guy who sat next to me in tenth-grade history and who, during tests, left his book open on the floor and turned the pages with his feet. I did not get active like my friend Heather, who, having been rejected by her first choice, made I Love Lucy-style plans to drive to the Duke campus with her soccer ball and her science-fair project to show the admissions board(招生委员会) exactly what they were rejecting. I simply said things like, “I’ve decided to give up the undergraduate degree and take a cake-decorating course.” The subtext in this was: I’m stupid. The world isn’t fair. 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。 I remained bitter until one day, my father sat me down. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply touched by his words, I began to reassess my situation. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I remained bitter until one day, my father sat me down. Having noticed my sadness, he asked what was troubling me. I opened my heart to him, pouring out my frustrations about the rejections and my fears for the future. “I always thought I’d get into one of the good schools, Dad. Now I feel like a failure, like I’m not good enough.” After listening attentively for a while, my father gently reminded me of all my accomplishments — the countless projects I had excelled in, the teams I had led, and the awards I had earned. He concluded with a reassuring smile. “I understand how painful these rejections feel, but they are not a reflection of your worth. I know you have the strength to overcome this challenge, and I will he here to support you every step of the way.” Deeply touched by his words. I began to assess my situation. My father helped me realize that dwelling on the rejections would only hinder me from reaching my full potential.True success is not defined by prestige, but by how we respond to life’s challenges. Changing my mindset from self-pity to determination, I decided to embrace the opportunities at the University of Massachusetts, knowing my journey would be shaped by my willingness to grow. With a renewed sense of purpose, I dived into my studies, joined campus organizations, and discovered new passions that enriched my life in ways I had never imagined. The initial disappointment soon gave way to anticipation and excitement. Looking back now, I am forever grateful to my father for his unwavering support and wisdom, which have been invaluable in shaping the person I am today. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展的顺序为线索展开，讲述了作者在高中毕业后申请大学时被拒绝后产生了失望，就此进行了思考，对未来充满了不确定和失落感的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我一直很痛苦，直到有一天，父亲让我坐下。”可知，第一段可描写“父亲倾听我的诉说后，指出我的优点并鼓励我继续前进。”的相关细节。 ②由第二段首句内容“被他的话深深打动了。我开始评估我的处境。”可知，第二段可描写“在父亲的鼓励下，我积极面对挑战，成为马萨诸塞大学的一员，以饱满的热情开始了新生活。”的相关细节。 2. 续写线索：父亲询问我的心事——我向父亲诉说——父亲鼓励我——我开始振作起来——进入马萨诸塞大学——带着热情开始新生活——感谢父亲的支持和智慧 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①战胜：overcome/defeat/get over ②改变：change/shift ③决定：decide/make up one’s mind 情绪类 ①悲伤：sadness/sorrow ②恐惧：fear/horror/terror 【点睛】【高分句型1】I understand how painful these rejections feel, but they are not a reflection of your worth. (使用了how引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】Looking back now, I am forever grateful to my father for his unwavering support and wisdom, which have been invaluable in shaping the person I am today. (使用了现在分词作状语和which引导的非限制性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 泰山外国语学校2024-2025学年第二学期开学考 高 二 年级 英语 学科 2025年2月 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分） 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。 1.

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 Scientists have created the first full-sized digital model of the Titanic. The model will allow scientists to study the Titanic in ways that have never been possible before. The Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912. It was the largest ship of its time, and was thought to be unable to go down below the surface of water. But four days after it left Southampton, England, the Titanic hit an iceberg (冰山) and sank early the next day, killing some 1,500 people. The sinking is one of the most famous disasters in history. The Titanic broke into two pieces, and sank to the sea floor, about 3.8 kilometers below the surface of the ocean. The location of the wreck (沉船) wasn’t discovered until 1985. Since then, many research teams have visited the site with undersea robots, whose trips have resulted in lots of pictures and videos of the wreck. But even these only allow scientists to study one area of the wreck at a time. Now, two companies — an undersea technology company called Magellan and the movie company Atlantic Productions — have created a 3-D model of the Titanic by sending two undersea robots down to the Titanic. The robots recorded both of the main pieces of the Titanic (the front and the back), as well as other hits of the wreck on the sea floor. Over six weeks, they took high-quality videos and over 715,000 pictures, based on which scientists created the 3-D model of the Titanic. Using it, users will be able to see the ship from all angles. The companies say the 3-D model will help scientists, enabling them to study the Titanic in great detail and study how the Titanic broke down, which could help them learn more about thousands of other shipwrecks also lying on the sea floor. And of course, scientists hope the model will help them better understand what happened when the Titanic sank. 8. What does the author say about the Titanic? A. It was supposedly unsinkable. B. Its sinking is the best-known disaster. C. Its voyage should last for 4 days. D. It tops the list of England's ships in size. 9. What message is conveyed in the third paragraph? A. More studies are encouraged on the Titanic. B. Enthusiasm for the Titanic never fades away. C. The exploration of the Titanic is far from easy. D. New discoveries have been made about the Titanic. 10. Which of the following plays a key role in creating the 3-D model? A. The previous findings about the shipwreck. B. The devotion of the scientists. C. The cooperation between the two companies. D. The complete picture of the wreck. 11. The 3-D model is expected to ___________. A. help rebuild other shipwrecks underwater B. give scientists new insights into the Titanic C. allow the public to fully admire the Titanic D. reproduce the grandness of the large ship D Aspects of your personality can be revealed in a heartbeat, literally, a new study from Germany suggests. The study identified heartbeat “signatures”— wave patterns in the heart's electrical activity —that were linked with personality traits. People with certain heartbeat signatures scored higher on tests of neuroticism (神经过敏) — meaning these individuals tend to experience more negative emotions, such as anxiety and a depressed mood, and fewer positive emotions, including happiness and cheerfulness. The study involved 425 university students ages 18 to 33. The students completed personality tests, and had their heart electrical activity measured using electrocardiography (心电图). “With this method, we have found something that is perhaps more accurate, and more relatable, than many other measures of personality,” said study researcher Stefan Koelsch, a professor of biological psychology at the Freie University Berlin. The results suggest such heartbeat signatures may provide a more objective way to measure personality than current methods, the researchers say. Personality is commonly assessed using questionnaires, but these may suffer from bias — people may choose responses that they think are more acceptable for their gender, or they may misunderstand their own traits. Researchers may also be able to identify heartbeat signatures that are characteristic of certain emotional disorders, such as depression, or of cardiovascular diseases, Koelsch said. Such signatures could one day help diagnose these disorders, or identify people at risk for them, he said. Previously, Koelsch and colleagues found a link between certain heart electrical activity patterns and people with “cold” personalities, who tend not to show emotion. In the new study, similar patterns were seen among those with high scores in neuroticism and low scores in positive emotion, like compassion and empathy. Although Koelsch suspects that this type of electrical pattern is not particularly healthy, future research is needed to confirm this. Eventually, Koelsch hopes to be able to see whether certain interventions, such as listening to music or watching films, change emotional states and the heart's electrical activity, he said. 12. What does “signatures” refer to in Paragraph 1? A. The scores of neuroticism tests. B. People’s personality traits. C. The researchers’ written names. D. The wave patterns of your heart. 13. What do researchers think about the common assessment of personality? A. It is more objective and much healthier. B. It is likely to be prejudiced and misunderstood. C. It is based on heart electrical activity measures. D. It is more accurate and more relatable to people. 14. According to the study, what can be learned about “cold” people? A. They tend to score lower in neuroticism tests. B They tend to suffer from cardiovascular disease. C. They tend to be less compassionate and empathetic. D. They tend to gain higher degrees in positive emotions. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Heartbeats hint your personality traits. B. Heartbeat signatures heal depression. C. Heartbeats change your emotional states. D. Heartbeats indicates the electrical activity. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 I have coached people from all walks of life for 25 years and I have seen first-hand that self-belief is what sets people up to be happy and achieve their dreams. ___16___ 1) Build your identity When I sat down to write my first book, Be Your Own Life Coach, I was filled with self-doubt; I couldn’t write a word and considered backing out.

I called home from a pay phone, and my little sister, Alex, said four envelopes had arrived: Georgetown, Cornell, William and Mary and the University of Massachusetts. She then opened and read them to me in her ten-year-old voice: “We regret that we do not have a place for you...” Rejected from Georgetown. “You were one of many qualified candidates...” Rejected from Cornell. And number seventy-three on a waiting list of seventy-five at William and Mary. Accepted to U Mass, my safety school. I didn’t digest the rejections immediately. I toured the United Nations, took train home and went back to school. Then I realized that other people had gotten into schools they really wanted to go to. Up to that point in my seventeen years, I hadn’t really failed at anything. I got good grades, made the school team and scored well on my SATs. I hadn’t experienced any major disappointments in my life, no deaths, no disease, no divorce, no cavities (龋齿) even. So being rejected seemed disastrous. I had always assumed I’d go to one of the“good schools.”I really wanted to be chosen: This is the place for smart people, and we want you. U Mass, on the other hand, had the reputation of being a party school to which, come September, I’d be headed with the guy who sat next to me in tenth-grade history and who, during tests, left his book open on the floor and turned the pages with his feet. I did not get active like my friend Heather, who, having been rejected by her first choice, made I Love Lucy-style plans to drive to the Duke campus with her soccer ball and her science-fair project to show the admissions board(招生委员会) exactly what they were rejecting. I simply said things like, “I’ve decided to give up the undergraduate degree and take a cake-decorating course.” The subtext in this was: I’m stupid. The world isn’t fair. 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。 I remained bitter until one day, my father sat me down. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply touched by his words, I began to reassess my situation. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
