And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles. Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new. Urban Sprouts’ classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools. Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they’re eating differently,” Jaramillo says. She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.” 4. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo? A. She used to be a health worker. B. She grew up in a low-income family. C. She owns a fast food restaurant. D. She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts. 5. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program? A. The kids’ parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes. C. Some kids disliked garden work. D. There was no space for school gardens. 6. Which of the following best describes the impact of the program? A. Far-reaching. B. Predictable. C. Short-lived. D. Unidentifiable. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Rescuing School Gardens B. Experiencing Country Life C. Growing Vegetable Lovers D. Changing Local Landscape C The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it’s right for you. To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy. Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid. The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spent on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. 8. What is the book aimed at? A. Teaching critical thinking skills. B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle. C. Solving philosophical problems. D. Promoting the use of a digital device. 9. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Clear-up. B. Add-on. C. Check-in. D. Take-over. 10. What is presented in the final chapter of part one? A. Theoretical models. B. Statistical methods. C. Practical examples. D. Historical analyses. 11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two? A. Use them as needed. B. Recommend them to friends. C. Evaluate their effects. D. Identify the ideas behind them. D To hear people talk about Internet friendships, you would think it was one giant web of cat-fishing and e-crime. While we all undoubtedly have to take measures to remain safe online, assuming every friendship or connection made on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook is cheating or insincere would be a mistake. As a woman who works in the creative industry, I have found real joy in seeking out a community I couldn’t find elsewhere, and making some great friends along the way. My first online friendship was on Twitter with my(now) best friend, during the university exam period. We exchanged study notes in dozens of direct messages, set a study date, and haven’t looked back since. Drawn to each other by similar circumstances friendships online are similar to offline in that they tend to begin because of shared interest or common ground-maybe they’ve read the post on Instagram. Maybe they have the same taste in food or politics. Or maybe they just love memes too. If online friendships start similar to friendships offline, they grow in the same way, too. Often through mutual support: apart from calling a friend to congratulate him on that new job, you also re-tweet his jokes and praise his Instagram story. Despite my positive experiences when I tell people, most are still suspicious. Eyebrows are raised higher when I explain not only have I found a community online but have made friendships with people I meet face-to-face too. Actually, these are just as valid as other friendships, according to behavioural psychologist Jo Hemmings, who says online friendships can be real. So how do you know if people are there for the real you or just because you’re popular on Instagram? Hemmings has simple rules. She tells me, “You have to equally feel comfortable that you’re getting something of each other instead of being used to enable something that isn’t friendship.” Therefore, if all a “friend” online is asking you to do is to promote their work or personal brand and rarely takes an interest in you, then there may be room to question the basis of the friendship. On that note it is worth remembering that just because someone has a lot of followers, it doesn’t necessarily mean they have lots of friends. 12 What is most people’s attitude towards online friendship? A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Objective. D. Neutral. 13. Why does the writer share her own experience in paragraph 2? A. To introduce the background information of the text. B. To convey the writer’s attitude and give the related example. C. To prove the likely risk for people to develop friendship online. D. To remind people of the various benefits of making friends online. 14. How can online and offline friendships be deepened? A. They should be based on shared interest. B. They need to have common ground. C. They require support from each other. D. They can’t live without social media. 15. According to the author, what’s the golden rule to make friends online? A. A friend to all is a friend to none. B. Without confidence there is no friendship. C. A friend without faults will never be found. D. Friendship cannot stand always on one side. 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。选项中有两项为余选项。 Hobbies are more than just a fun way to kill the time. A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self-discipline. ____16____ In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being. The benefits you obtain will depend on your hobby-taking up jogging, for instance, will benefit your cardiovascular (心血管的) health. The point is that nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. If we regularly spend time on hobbies, we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness. ____17____. A 2023 comprehensive analysis of multiple studies found strong evidence that engaging in leisure activities can improve health by protecting against heart disease and age-related problems. But another of the researchers’ findings is perhaps the most striking: the strong relationship between doing leisure activities and increased longevity (长寿). ____18____ It found that older adults have a 19% lower risk of disease-related death when they engage in regular leisure activities. ____19____ They are vital to sustaining our mental health. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies (no matter what they were) showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in the Journal of Personality. “In general, humans need meaning, something that gives them a sense of purpose. ____20____” says Dr Hafeez, who has led several massive studies on hobbies. “Engaging in what you enjoy greatly enhances your well-being.” With all these visible benefits of hobbies why not just make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment every day? A. The science backs this up. B. Hobbies make us happier. C. You gain a lot from hobbies. D. Nothing could be further from the truth. E. The more you engage in hobbies, the longer you will live. F. A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact. G. And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that. 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） I was asked to give a speech at a conference on education.

So I asked Parker what ____26____ he most wanted in a potential new employee.

The ability to ask the right questions ____32____ good thinking ability, the most important quality.” Indeed, the ability to ask good questions has been a repeated ____33____ in today’s workplace.

Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it but with her strange body figure, everyone could recognize her, even from a distance. In Emily White’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (大礼堂). It had been performed for so many years and actually had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the town’s people. Many people tried out each year for it, but so many were turned away. It can only include the most excellent people in the field. Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year she went to Mrs. Owens — her music teacher to ask to join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Amy’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable, too.” Without singing a single note, Emily was sent back through the door of the choral room. Hurt and upset, she decided never to try out again. But Mrs. Owens then retired. This year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Buttler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try. Emily didn’t want to be rejected again, so she hesitated a little about it. As Emily struggled, the door was pushed open and Mr. Buttler called, “Emily, you’re next.” Although kind of nervous, Emily did as Mr. Buttler told her to do. Mr. Buttler sat by the piano to keep Emily company. When Emily finished her testing performance, she thanked Mr. Buttler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day. Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was suffering from the feelings that she didn’t fit and the great need to be accepted. By the next morning, her stomach was even in pain because of stress. 注意：续写词数应为150左右 Paragraph 1: The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally, the day of performance came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 杭高2024学年第一学期期末考试高二 （英语） 试题卷 1. 本试卷分试题卷和答题卷两部分，本卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 请务必将自己的班级、姓名用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔填写在答题纸规定的地方。 3. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范答题，在本试题卷上答题一律无效。 4. 考试结束后，只需上交答题纸。 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。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.

Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new. Urban Sprouts’ classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools. Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they’re eating differently,” Jaramillo says. She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.” 4. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo? A. She used to be a health worker. B. She grew up in a low-income family. C. She owns a fast food restaurant. D. She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts. 5. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program? A. The kids’ parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes. C. Some kids disliked garden work. D. There was no space for school gardens. 6. Which of the following best describes the impact of the program? A. Far-reaching. B. Predictable. C. Short-lived. D. Unidentifiable. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Rescuing School Gardens B. Experiencing Country Life C. Growing Vegetable Lovers D. Changing Local Landscape 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了Abby Jaramillo等老师在低收入学校发起的培养学生科学能力，环保意识以及健康生活方式的Urban Sprouts花园项目，让学生种植蔬菜，对学生影响深远。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools.(起初是这样的，艾比·哈拉米洛说，她和另一位老师在四所低收入学校启动了“Urban Sprouts”学校花园项目。)”可知，艾比·哈拉米洛是Urban Sprouts的发起者。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.(她说。“他们来找我们，认为蔬菜很可怕，泥土很可怕，昆虫也很可怕。”虽然有些人一开始害怕昆虫，对泥土感到厌烦，但大多数人都渴望尝试新的东西。)”可知，项目之初，一些学生不喜欢园艺工作。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”(她补充说，该计划的好处不仅仅是营养。有些学生对园艺非常感兴趣，他们带回家种子开始自己的菜园。此外，在花园里工作似乎对Jaramillo的特殊教育学生有镇静作用，他们中的许多人都有情绪控制问题。“他们走了出去，”她说，“他们觉得成功。”)”可知，这个项目不仅给学生提供了有营养的食物，而且许多学生回家开创了自己的菜园，对有情绪控制问题的学生也起到了镇静作用，从而推知，该项目的影响是深远的。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.(起初是这样的，艾比·哈拉米洛说，她和另一位老师在四所低收入学校启动了“Urban Sprouts”学校花园项目。该项目旨在帮助学生培养科学技能、环保意识和健康的生活方式。)”和最后一段的“Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens.(一些学生对园艺非常感兴趣，于是他们把种子带回家，开始种自己的菜园)”以及下文内容可知，文章主要讲述了Abby Jaramillo等老师在低收入学校发起的培养学生科学能力，环保意识以及健康生活方式的Urban Sprouts花园项目，让学生种植蔬菜，对学生影响深远。因此推断C项“蔬菜种植爱好者”符合文意，最适合作为本文标题。故选C。 【点睛】 C The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it’s right for you. To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy. Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid. The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spent on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. 8. What is the book aimed at? A. Teaching critical thinking skills. B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle. C. Solving philosophical problems. D. Promoting the use of a digital device. 9. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Clear-up. B. Add-on. C. Check-in. D. Take-over. 10. What is presented in the final chapter of part one? A. Theoretical models. B. Statistical methods. C. Practical examples. D. Historical analyses. 11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two? A. Use them as needed. B. Recommend them to friends. C. Evaluate their effects. D. Identify the ideas behind them. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了数字极简主义生活方式的优点，倡导简单的数字生活方式。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it’s right for you. (这本书的目标是为数字极简主义辩护，包括详细探索它的要求和为什么有效，然后如果你认为它适合你，教你如何采用这种哲学)”可知，这本书的目的是倡导简单的数字生活方式。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词下文“This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. (这个过程要求你在30天内远离可选的在线活动。在30天结束的时候，你再加上一些你认为会给你所看重的东西带来巨大好处的精心挑选的在线活动)”可推知，画线词“declutter”的意思是“清理”，对在线活动进行清理和挑选。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。通过文章第四段“In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. (在第一部分的最后一章中，我将指导您进行自己的数字清理。在这样做的过程中，我将借鉴我在2018年进行的一项实验，在该实验中，1600多人同意进行数字清理)”可推知，第一部分的最后一章介绍了实验与数字清理的实际例子。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. (你可以将这些实践视为一个工具箱，旨在帮助你建立一种适合自己特定情况的极简主义生活方式)”可推知，作者建议读者根据需要与实际情况使用第二部分中提及的实践。故选A。 【点睛】 D To hear people talk about Internet friendships, you would think it was one giant web of cat-fishing and e-crime. While we all undoubtedly have to take measures to remain safe online, assuming every friendship or connection made on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook is cheating or insincere would be a mistake. As a woman who works in the creative industry, I have found real joy in seeking out a community I couldn’t find elsewhere, and making some great friends along the way. My first online friendship was on Twitter with my(now) best friend, during the university exam period. We exchanged study notes in dozens of direct messages, set a study date, and haven’t looked back since. Drawn to each other by similar circumstances, friendships online are similar to offline in that they tend to begin because of shared interest or common ground-maybe they’ve read the post on Instagram. Maybe they have the same taste in food or politics. Or maybe they just love memes too. If online friendships start similar to friendships offline, they grow in the same way, too. Often through mutual support: apart from calling a friend to congratulate him on that new job, you also re-tweet his jokes and praise his Instagram story. Despite my positive experiences when I tell people most are still suspicious. Eyebrows are raised higher when I explain not only have I found a community online but have made friendships with people I meet face-to-face too. Actually, these are just as valid as other friendships, according to behavioural psychologist Jo Hemmings, who says online friendships can be real. So how do you know if people are there for the real you or just because you’re popular on Instagram? Hemmings has simple rules. She tells me, “You have to equally feel comfortable that you’re getting something of each other instead of being used to enable something that isn’t friendship.” Therefore, if all a “friend” online is asking you to do is to promote their work or personal brand and rarely takes an interest in you, then there may be room to question the basis of the friendship. On that note it is worth remembering that just because someone has a lot of followers, it doesn’t necessarily mean they have lots of friends. 12 What is most people’s attitude towards online friendship? A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Objective. D. Neutral. 13. Why does the writer share her own experience in paragraph 2? A. To introduce the background information of the text. B. To convey the writer’s attitude and give the related example. C. To prove the likely risk for people to develop friendship online. D. To remind people of the various benefits of making friends online. 14. How can online and offline friendships be deepened? A. They should be based on shared interest. B. They need to have common ground. C. They require support from each other. D. They can’t live without social media. 15. According to the author, what’s the golden rule to make friends online? A. A friend to all is a friend to none. B. Without confidence there is no friendship. C. A friend without faults will never be found. D. Friendship cannot stand always on one side. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了作者对于网络交友的看法。作者表明了自己对于网络交友的积极态度，并用自己的实际经验强力证明了网络交友给自己带来的乐趣，同时，作者阐述了网络交友的基础和原则：相互支持。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“To hear people talk about Internet friendships, you would think it was one giant web of cat-fishing and e-crime.(听到人们谈论网络友谊，你会认为这是一个巨大的猫钓鱼和电子犯罪网络。)”可知，当人们谈论网络友谊时，会认为这是一个骗局或网络犯罪行为，由此可推知，大多数人对网上交友抱有消极的态度。故选A项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。通过阅读文章第二段内容内容可知，该段中作者以自己的亲身经历作为例子应是为了证明支持该段的论点，即，首句“As a woman who works in the creative industry, I have found real joy in seeking out a community I couldn’t find elsewhere, and making some great friends along the way.(作为一名在创意行业工作的女性，我从寻找一个在其他地方找不到的社区中找到了真正的快乐，并在此过程中交到了一些好朋友。)”。作者在网上找到了很多的乐趣并举了自己的例子作为强有力的例证，由此可推知，作者用自己的亲身经历表达了自己对于网上交友的积极态度。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“If online friendships start similar to friendships offline, they grow in the same way, too. Often through mutual support: apart from calling a friend to congratulate him on that new job, you also re-tweet his jokes and praise his Instagram story.(如果网上的友谊和线下的友谊开始时很相似，那么它们也以同样的方式成长。通常是通过相互支持：除了给朋友打电话祝贺他找到了新工作，你还会转发他的笑话，赞扬他的Instagram故事。)”可知，线上线下的友谊如果要进一步发展或加深，通常是通过相互支持。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末尾内容作者对于网络交友的总结“Therefore, if all a ‘friend’ online is asking you to do is to promote their work or personal brand and rarely takes an interest in you, then there may be room to question the basis of the friendship.(因此，如果网上的“朋友”要求你做的只是推广他们的作品或个人品牌，并且很少对你感兴趣，那么就有可能质疑这种友谊的基础了。)”可知，只是单方面对人提出“商业”要求的网络朋友，不是真正的朋友，因此可推知，在作者看来，网络交友的黄金法则应是“朋友应该是双方的（相互支持），友谊不能总是在一方（的付出）”。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。选项中有两项为余选项。 Hobbies are more than just a fun way to kill the time. A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self-discipline. ____16____ In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being. The benefits you obtain will depend on your hobby-taking up jogging, for instance, will benefit your cardiovascular (心血管的) health. The point is that nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. If we regularly spend time on hobbies, we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness. ____17____. A 2023 comprehensive analysis of multiple studies found strong evidence that engaging in leisure activities can improve health by protecting against heart disease and age-related problems. But another of the researchers’ findings is perhaps the most striking: the strong relationship between doing leisure activities and increased longevity (长寿). ____18____ It found that older adults have a 19% lower risk of disease-related death when they engage in regular leisure activities. ____19____ They are vital to sustaining our mental health. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies (no matter what they were) showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in the Journal of Personality. “In general, humans need meaning, something that gives them a sense of purpose. ____20____” says Dr Hafeez, who has led several massive studies on hobbies. “Engaging in what you enjoy greatly enhances your well-being.” With all these visible benefits of hobbies, why not just make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment every day? A. The science backs this up. B. Hobbies make us happier. C. You gain a lot from hobbies. D. Nothing could be further from the truth. E. The more you engage in hobbies, the longer you will live. F. A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact. G. And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. F 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章反驳了认为从事爱好是缺乏自律的误解，论述了爱好能为生活带来平衡、提升幸福感，对身心健康和长寿有益等观点。 【16题详解】 上文“A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self discipline.(一个广泛存在且有害的误解是，从事爱好反映了缺乏自律)”提出了关于爱好的错误观点，D选项“Nothing could be further from the truth.(没有比这更偏离事实的了)”对上文的错误观点进行了反驳，引出下文“In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being.(事实上，爱好可以为我们的生活提供必要的平衡，提高整体幸福感)”对爱好好处的论述，上下文逻辑连贯。故选D项。 【17题详解】 上文“If we regularly spend time on hobbies, we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness.(如果我们定期花时间在爱好上，我们通常会有更高的健康水平)”表明爱好对健康有益，A选项“The science backs this up.(科学证实了这一点)”引出下文用研究结果来支持这一观点，上下文衔接自然。故选A项。 【18题详解】 上文提到了研究发现从事休闲活动与长寿有密切关系，F选项“A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact.(去年进行的另一项研究证实了这种影响)”进一步说明有不同的研究也证实了相关影响，且后文“It found that older adults have a 19% lower risk of disease related death when they engage in regular leisure activities.(研究发现，老年人经常参加休闲活动，与疾病相关的死亡风险降低19%)”是该研究的具体发现，上下文逻辑紧密。故选F项。 【19题详解】 下文“They are vital to sustaining our mental health.(它们对维持我们的心理健康至关重要)”强调爱好对心理健康的重要性，B选项“Hobbies make us happier.(爱好让我们更快乐)”引出下文关于爱好对心理健康影响的论述，“happier”与“mental health”相关，上下文衔接合理。故选B项。 【20题详解】 上文“humans need meaning, something that gives them a sense of purpose.(人类需要意义，需要能给他们带来目标感的东西)”指出人类需要有目标感的事物，G选项“And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that.(能够追求自己的爱好真的有助于实现这一点)”说明爱好能满足人类对目标感的需求，与上文逻辑一致。故选G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） I was asked to give a speech at a conference on education.

Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it but with her strange body figure, everyone could recognize her, even from a distance. In Emily White’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (大礼堂). It had been performed for so many years and actually had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the town’s people. Many people tried out each year for it, but so many were turned away. It can only include the most excellent people in the field. Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year she went to Mrs. Owens — her music teacher to ask to join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Amy’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable, too.” Without singing a single note, Emily was sent back through the door of the choral room. Hurt and upset, she decided never to try out again. But Mrs. Owens then retired. This year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Buttler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try. Emily didn’t want to be rejected again, so she hesitated a little about it. As Emily struggled, the door was pushed open and Mr. Buttler called, “Emily, you’re next.” Although kind of nervous, Emily did as Mr. Buttler told her to do. Mr. Buttler sat by the piano to keep Emily company. When Emily finished her testing performance, she thanked Mr. Buttler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day. Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was suffering from the feelings that she didn’t fit and the great need to be accepted. By the next morning, her stomach was even in pain because of stress. 注意：续写词数应为150左右 Paragraph 1: The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally, the day of performance came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. She was not rejected this time. Her name was posted at the top of the list. She, Emily White, was chosen to be the leading singer! She would sing alone in the performance. Emily couldn’t believe her eyes. There must be some mistake. But Mr. Buttler said to her with determined eyes, “Emily, I choose you because you should perform the part-your voice is unusual. Believe in yourself.” Greatly encouraged, Emily practiced really hard. Finally, the day of performance came. Standing in front of the line, Emily felt her throat tight and her palms sweating. When the curtain opened up, the eyes of the whole audience fell upon Emily. “Emily White!” Someone whispered. Then, along with the first note of music, Emily began to sing her heart out. Her voice was like a nightingale ringing in the auditorium. Applause! Emily felt so happy and comfortable. She was shining on the stage. Emily White, with so many birth problems in her body, was an angel! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Emily17年前出生时身体就有很多问题。她的一些器官、骨骼和肌肉变形了，好在Emily有一副美丽的歌喉。但去年，她去找她的音乐老师要求参加演出选拔，却被无情拒绝，今年来了一位新的音乐老师，他听说了Emily的事，给予她一次展示自己的机会，她很感激，但想到次日公布的选拔结果她感到很紧张。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，Emily紧张地看了看合唱教室门上的名单。”可知，第一段可描写她通过了选拔以及老师对她的鼓励。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，演出的日子到了。”可知，第二段可描写Emily演唱出色，观众为她鼓掌。 2.续写线索：Emily被选中——不敢相信自己的眼睛——Mr. Buttler鼓励Emily——Emily努力练习——紧张——唱得很好——观众鼓掌——Emily高兴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①选择：choose/select ②鼓励：encourage/inspire ③开始唱：begin to sing/start to sing 情绪类 ①坚定的：determined/unswerving ②高兴的：happy/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] Emily, I choose you because you should perform the part-your voice is unusual.
