In 2010, the 32-year-old American traveled to the Wudang Mountains, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in central China’s Hubei Province, to learn martial arts. Pinnick said he was very interested in Chinese Kung Fu from a young age. When Pinnick first arrived in the Wudang Mountains, he had no earlier training or martial arts experience, so he began with a five-year training program, learning the basics and all aboutTaoist culture. Pinnick said the first six months were the hardest, because he had to train for eight or nine hours, six days a week, whatever the temperature outside. After over a decade of hard training, he has mastered various forms of Chinese Kung Fu, including Tai Chi and Qigong, and become a guider with about 200 apprentices (学徒) in China. This year is the 13th Spring Festival that Pinnick has spent in China. He likes the Spring Festival and the traditions here. He also teaches his daughter Selina Lee Pinnick these traditions. As the new year begins, people are starting new chapters in their lives and making resolutions. Pinnick also has many plans and wishes — he plans on making more efforts to learn the Chinese language this year. In addition to learning Chinese, Pinnick will continue to learn about traditional Chinese culture and how to play Chinese musical instruments in his leisure time, and he will share his experience on social media. “I think that the experience I’ve had, being a foreigner coming to China and learning the culture from outside, is unique. I hope to introduce Chinese Kung Fu and traditions to more westerners,” he said. 4. What was Pinnick’s main reason for traveling to the Wudang Mountains? A. To learn Chinese Kung Fu. B.

The glass surfaces, found in bedrooms and bathrooms around the world, have seen the silent battles that many young individuals face. Appearance anxiety has become a widespread issue, with social media and peer pressure acting as magnifying glasses (放大镜) that mislead them about their self-worth. Filtered (滤镜处理过的) photos posted on platforms like TikTok have created an environment where seeking perfection seems not just desirable but necessary. To make matters worse, the strong desire for the perfect appearance has led many teenagers to make unhealthy comparisons, often resulting in negative self-talks and more worries about their looks. The deep-rooted problem can affect mental health in particular. Studies have shown that teenagers who are overly concerned with their looks are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and low self-confidence. The pressure to be up to beauty standards is huge, and it often begins at a young age. The seemingly perfect images in magazines, on television and social media platforms create an unrealistic standard for teenagers to measure themselves against. Unfortunately, it can lead to a lasting state of dissatisfaction with their looks. To solve the problem it is important to understand that beauty is not a one-size-fits-all concept. It varies from person to person. We ought to encourage teenagers to accept their unique features and to understand that their worth is not defined by their looks. Parents, educators, and society as a whole have a role to play in developing a more acceptable and positive view of beauty. We are also supposed to teach young people that the journey towards self-acceptance is just as important as acquiring great knowledge and developing other skills. 8. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning “mirrors” in paragraph 1? A. To introduce the topic. B. To provide examples. C. To show his argument. D. To make comparisons. 9. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about? A. Mental struggles of teenagers. B. Problems faced by teenagers. C. Causes of teenage appearance anxiety. D. Effects of social media on teenagers. 10. What is a result of teenage appearance anxiety according to the text? A. Teenagers are not satisfied with beauty standards. B. Teenagers are more likely to suffer mental problems. C. Teenagers are more likely to have poor physical health. D. Teenagers are not satisfied with social media platforms. 11. What does the writer try to do in the last paragraph? A. Call on parents to understand young people better. B. Encourage young people to acquire more knowledge. C. Inspire teenagers to develop as many skills as possible. D. Give advice on how to deal with teenage appearance anxiety. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了现代青少年在镜子面前面临的自我认知挑战，尤其是外貌焦虑问题。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段中“In the modern era, mirrors often show physical images (形象) as well as the mental struggles of self-awareness, especially among teenagers. The glass surfaces, found in bedrooms and bathrooms around the world, have seen the silent battles that many young individuals face. (在现代，镜子经常显示身体图像以及自我意识的心理斗争，尤其是在青少年中。世界各地卧室和浴室中的玻璃表面见证了许多年轻人面临的无声战斗)”和第二段中“Appearance anxiety has become a widespread issue, with social media and peer pressure acting as magnifying glasses (放大镜) that mislead them about their self-worth. (外表焦虑已经成为一个普遍的问题，社交媒体和同伴压力就像放大镜一样，误导了他们对自我价值的认识)”可知，提到镜子是为了引入话题，使读者关注青少年对外貌焦虑的问题。 故选A项。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。由第二段“Appearance anxiety has become a widespread issue, with social media and peer pressure acting as magnifying glasses (放大镜) that mislead them about their self-worth. Filtered (滤镜处理过的) photos posted on platforms like TikTok have created an environment where seeking perfection seems not just desirable but necessary. To make matters worse, the strong desire for the perfect appearance has led many teenagers to make unhealthy comparisons, often resulting in negative self-talks and more worries about their looks. (外表焦虑已经成为一个普遍的问题，社交媒体和同伴压力就像放大镜一样，误导了他们对自我价值的认识。在TikTok等平台上发布的过滤照片创造了一个环境，在这个环境中，追求完美似乎不仅是可取的，而且是必要的。更糟糕的是，对完美外表的强烈渴望导致许多青少年进行不健康的比较，往往导致消极的自我对话和对自己外表的更多担忧)”可知，第二段主要讨论了导致青少年外貌焦虑的原因，包括社交媒体和同龄人压力等。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段中“The deep-rooted problem can affect mental health in particular. Studies have shown that teenagers who are overly concerned with their looks are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and low self-confidence. (这个根深蒂固的问题尤其会影响心理健康。研究表明，过度关注自己外表的青少年更有可能经历焦虑、抑郁和低自信)”可知，青少年外貌焦虑可能导致的结果是心理问题，例如焦虑、抑郁和低自信心。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段中“We ought to encourage teenagers to accept their unique features and to understand that their worth is not defined by their looks. Parents, educators, and society as a whole have a role to play in developing a more acceptable and positive view of beauty. We are also supposed to teach young people that the journey towards self-acceptance is just as important as acquiring great knowledge and developing other skills. (我们应该鼓励青少年接受自己的独特之处，并明白他们的价值不是由外表决定的。家长、教育工作者和整个社会都可以在培养更可接受和积极的审美观方面发挥作用。我们也应该教育年轻人，走向自我接受的旅程与获得大量知识和发展其他技能同样重要)”可知，在最后一段作者试图给出如何应对青少年外貌焦虑的建议，包括青少年接受自己的独特之处、培养青少年的积极的审美观和让年轻人明白走向自我接受的旅程与获得大量知识和发展其他技能同样重要。故选D项。 D Imagine you’re walking across endless hills, with warm sunshine and the sound of birds all around. This peaceful scene is a rare one in the modern world. Our natural soundscapes (声音环境) are falling silent as bird populations reduce. Our study explores the link between birdsong and people, specifically on English vineyards (葡萄园). We surveyed bird communities on 21 vineyards and our results showed that vineyards with more bird species (物种) had louder and more complex (复杂的) soundscapes. But does the silencing of our soundscapes matter to us? The short answer is yes. There is growing evidence about the health benefits of spending time in nature, including reducing risks of heart disease and anxiety. So as part of our research, we explored the experience of 186 wine-tour participants (参与者) across three vineyards with different soundscapes. We also improved some vineyard soundscapes with hidden speakers, which played the songs of five additional bird species. This was designed to see how participants’ contact with nature would be affected by increasing the kinds of birds and songs. The results were fascinating. Visitors who experienced louder and more complex sounds — whether on vineyards with naturally richer soundscapes or on those we had improved — reported enjoying the sounds more. They felt more connected to nature and more satisfied with their tour. With richer soundscapes, they felt more mindful and positive during the tours. Our study shows the direct effect that birdsong has on our happiness and presents a strong argument for protecting natural soundscapes. So, we hope businesses and people will be inspired to invest (投资) in protection and promote connection with nature. 12. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To show opinions. B. To amuse readers. C. To introduce the topic. D. To explain the causes. 13. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of the research. B. The objectives of the research. C. The findings of the research. D. The importance of the research. 14. What does the underlined word “fascinating” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Too boring. B. Very surprising. C. Quite interesting. D. Much confusing. 15. What do the findings of the study suggest? A. Doing deeper research. B. Building better businesses. C. Seeking greater happiness. D. Connecting more with nature. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现花时间在大自然中有益于健康，包括降低患心脏病和焦虑的风险。解释了研究开展的经过以及发现。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine you’re walking across endless hills, with warm sunshine and the sound of birds all around. This peaceful scene is a rare one in the modern world. Our natural soundscapes (声音环境) are falling silent as bird populations reduce. (想象一下，你正走过一望无际的山丘，温暖的阳光和鸟鸣环绕。这种宁静的景象在现代社会是罕见的。随着鸟类数量的减少，我们的自然声景正在变得沉默)”可知，第一段通过描述一个宁静的自然场景，引出了关于现代世界中鸟类减少导致自然声音环境变得沉默的问题。这为后续讨论鸟类与人类之间的联系以及研究背景做了铺垫，因此第一段的目的是引入话题。故选C。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“So as part of our research, we explored the experience of 186 wine-tour participants (参与者) across three vineyards with different soundscapes. We also improved some vineyard soundscapes with hidden speakers, which played the songs of five additional bird species. This was designed to see how participants’ contact with nature would be affected by increasing the kinds of birds and songs.(作为我们研究的一部分，我们调查了在三个具有不同声音环境的葡萄园中的186名葡萄酒旅游参与者的体验。我们还通过隐藏扬声器播放了额外五种鸟类的歌声来改善某些葡萄园的声音环境。这旨在观察增加鸟类种类和歌声如何影响参与者与自然的接触)”可知，第四段详细描述了研究的具体过程，包括如何在三个葡萄园中调查186名葡萄酒旅游参与者的体验，并且通过隐藏扬声器播放额外五种鸟类的声音来改善某些葡萄园的声音环境。故选A。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“Visitors who experienced louder and more complex sounds — whether on vineyards with naturally richer soundscapes or on those we had improved — reported enjoying the sounds more. They felt more connected to nature and more satisfied with their tour. With richer soundscapes, they felt more mindful and positive during the tours.(体验到更响亮和更复杂声音的游客——无论是在自然声音环境更丰富的葡萄园中，还是在我们通过技术手段改善了声音环境的葡萄园中——都表示他们更加享受这些声音。他们感到与自然的联系更为紧密，并对他们的游览更加满意。拥有更丰富的声音环境使他们在游览过程中感到更加专注和积极)”可知，参与者对更响亮、更复杂的声音环境表现出更高的满意度和享受感，说明研究结果十分有趣，故划线词意思是“非常有趣”。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Our study shows the direct effect that birdsong has on our happiness and presents a strong argument for protecting natural soundscapes. So, we hope businesses and people will be inspired to invest (投资) in protection and promote connection with nature.(我们的研究显示了鸟鸣对我们幸福的直接影响，并为保护自然声景提供了强有力的论据。因此，我们希望企业和人们能够受到激励，投资于保护自然，促进与自然的联系)”可知，这项研究的结果说明了应该多与自然联系。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) Animals have their own unique ways of communicating, which play an important role in their survival and social interactions. The communication signals are various and have developed over countless generations, finely adjusted to meet their specific needs. ____16____ One common form of animal communication is through vocalizations. Birds are masters of this. For example, the melodious songs of nightingales aren’t just for our enjoyment. Males sing to mark their territory, warning other males to stay away. ____17____ The more powerful the song is, the more likely the female is to mate. ____18____ Wolves use a complex system of body postures. When a wolf holds its tail high and stiff, it shows its power in its group. In contrast, a relaxed, loosely wagging tail indicates a friendly mood. Submissive wolves, on the other hand, will lower their bodies, tuck their tails, and avoid direct eye contact, communicating their non-threatening status. Chemical signals, often in the form of pheromones (信息素), are widely used too. Ants release pheromones along its way to lead fellow ants to food sources. ____19____ Female moths can detect the pheromones of male moths from miles away, enabling them to find each other for mating. Some animals even use visual displays. Peacocks (孔雀) spread their beautiful tails in a dazzling fan. This isn’t just for show; it’s a way to attract peahens during the breeding season. ____20____ The more brilliant the display is, the more likely they are to catch a female’s eye and pass on their genes. In conclusion, the animal kingdom’s communication systems are a wonder of nature. Understanding these communication methods gives us a fascinating peek into the animal kingdom’s hidden social lives. A. People recognize the signals suggesting changes. B. It’s like a map guiding them to find the destination. C. A wagging tail can mean friendliness or excitement. D. And another purpose is to catch the attention of a female. E. Body language is also an important way to communicate. F. The bright colors and patterns show good health and genetic quality. G. By understanding these signals, we can appreciate the animal world more easily. 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. E 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了动物的交流方式。 【16题详解】 根据上文“The communication signals are various and have developed over countless generations, finely adjusted to meet their specific needs.(交流信号是多种多样的，经过无数代的发展，经过精细调整以满足它们的特定需求)”可知，前文提到动物有独特的交流方式，交流信号多样且经过无数代发展，适应它们的特定需求。G选项By understanding these signals, we can appreciate the animal world more easily.(通过理解这些信号，我们可以更容易地欣赏动物世界)承接上文，说明理解这些信号的意义，符合语境。故选G项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“For example, the melodious songs of nightingales aren’t just for our enjoyment. Males sing to mark their territory, warning other males to stay away.(例如，夜莺的悠扬歌声不仅仅是为了我们的享受。雄鸟用歌声来标记自己的领地，警告其他雄鸟远离)”以及下文“The more powerful the song is, the more likely the female is to mate.(歌声越有力，雌性越有可能交配)”可知，前文说夜莺的歌声不仅仅是为了让我们欣赏，雄性夜莺唱歌是为了标记领地，警告其他雄性远离。后文说歌声越有力，雌性就越有可能与之交配。D选项And another purpose is to catch the attention of a female.(另一个目的是吸引雌性的注意)起到承上启下的作用，说明雄性夜莺唱歌的另一个目的。故选D项。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Wolves use a complex system of body postures. When a wolf holds its tail high and stiff, it shows its power in its group. In contrast, a relaxed, loosely wagging tail indicates a friendly mood. Submissive wolves, on the other hand, will lower their bodies, tuck their tails, and avoid direct eye contact, communicating their non-threatening status.(狼使用复杂的身体姿势系统。当狼把尾巴高高竖起时，它显示了它在群体中的力量。相反，一个放松的，松散地摇尾巴表示友好的心情。另一方面，顺从的狼会降低它们的身体，收起它们的尾巴，避免直接的目光接触，传达它们没有威胁的状态)”可知，后文举例说明狼使用复杂的身体姿势系统来交流，如尾巴高高竖起且僵硬表示在群体中的权力，尾巴放松、轻轻摆动表示友好情绪等。E选项Body language is also an important way to communicate.(肢体语言也是一种重要的交流方式)引出下文关于狼通过肢体语言交流的内容。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Ants release pheromones along its way to lead fellow ants to food sources.(蚂蚁在寻找食物的过程中释放信息素)”可知，前文说蚂蚁会沿途释放信息素，引导同伴找到食物来源。B选项It’s like a map guiding them to find the destination.(它就像一张地图，引导它们找到目的地)把信息素比作地图，形象地说明了信息素对蚂蚁找到食物来源的引导作用，符合语境。故选B项。 20题详解】 根据上文“This isn’t just for show; it’s a way to attract peahens during the breeding season.(这不仅仅是为了展示；这是在繁殖季节吸引雌孔雀的一种方式)”以及下文“The more brilliant the display is, the more likely they are to catch a female’s eye and pass on their genes.(展示得越耀眼，就越有可能吸引到雌性的目光，并将它们的基因传递下去)”可知，前文说孔雀在繁殖季节展开美丽的尾巴，这不仅仅是为了展示，而是一种吸引雌孔雀的方式。后文说展示得越耀眼，就越有可能吸引雌孔雀的注意，并传递它们的基因。F选项 The bright colors and patterns show good health and genetic quality.(鲜艳的颜色和图案显示出良好的健康状况和遗传素质)解释了孔雀尾巴展示的意义，即其鲜艳的颜色和图案所代表的含义，起到承上启下的作用。故选F项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） I have the bad habit of skipping to the last pages of a book to see how it ends while I’m still in the middle of it.

There was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother as she read stories to me. When I was in primary school and old enough to read, I enjoyed reading stories aloud to her. I will never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed (排练) my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s (旁白、解说员) part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl. I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden. It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions (蒲公英) in the grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red, yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.” “But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful --- even dandelions.” My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower is beautiful in its own way, isn’t it?” She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled, patting me gently. “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said. 注意： 1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the play, I took home the dandelions. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me how much I loved to read stories aloud to her. “The narrator’s part is just as important as the part of a princess.” Her wise words inspired me with courage and confidence. But on the evening of the performance, I suddenly felt nervous backstage again. My teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give you this,” she said, handing me some dandelions. Looking at them, I knew my mother was out there for me, which calmed me down. After the play, I took home the dandelions. My mother made them into dried flowers and put them into a glass bottle. Every time I see them, I am reminded of this unforgettable experience. I have taken part in many school plays, tried different roles and made many speeches ever since. Gradually, I’ve become really good at performing and public speaking, seldom feeling nervous onstage now. For this, I am forever grateful to my mother, who have made me what I am today. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展的顺序为线索展开。作者在学校戏剧彩排时，由于紧张而失去了公主的角色，被换成了旁白角色，作者非常伤心，和妈妈一起在花园里散步时，妈妈看出了她的心事并且用蒲公英做例子告诉她“不是每个人都能做公主，做不成公主不是什么丢人的事情”。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她说，但你会成为一名出色的旁白。”可知，第一段可描写作者在妈妈的鼓励下如何把“旁白”的角色扮演得很好，又因为下一段开头提到了“the dandelions”，所以本段一定要安排它的出现，要讲出妈妈将蒲公英托老师给了作者的细节。 ②由第二段首句内容“演出结束后，我带着蒲公英回了家。”可知，第二段可描写作者在蒲公英的激励和鼓舞之下又进一步取得了很多好的成绩，进而表达对妈妈的感激之情。 2.续写线索：做旁白——紧张——妈妈送来了蒲公英——镇静下来——成功完成演出——取得更多成绩——感激妈妈 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①激励：inspire/encourage ②使镇静：calm down/ease down/smooth down ③使某人想起：remind sb of sth/call up 情绪类 ①勇气：courage/bravery ②紧张的：nervous/tense 【点睛】[高分句型1] Looking at them, I knew my mother was out there for me, which calmed me down.(使用了现在分词短语作状语和which引导非限制性定语从句) [高分句型2] Every time I see them, I am reminded of this unforgettable experience. (使用了every time引导时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 鹤壁高中高一年级摸底考试英语试卷 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,选出最佳选项。 1.

B Jake Lee Pinnick is busy preparing food, clothing and house decorations, putting up couplets and visiting friends with his family to celebrate the Spring Festival, or the Chinese Lunar NewYear. In 2010, the 32-year-old American traveled to the Wudang Mountains, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in central China’s Hubei Province, to learn martial arts. Pinnick said he was very interested in Chinese Kung Fu from a young age. When Pinnick first arrived in the Wudang Mountains, he had no earlier training or martial arts experience, so he began with a five-year training program, learning the basics and all aboutTaoist culture. Pinnick said the first six months were the hardest, because he had to train for eight or nine hours, six days a week, whatever the temperature outside. After over a decade of hard training, he has mastered various forms of Chinese Kung Fu, including Tai Chi and Qigong, and become a guider with about 200 apprentices (学徒) in China. This year is the 13th Spring Festival that Pinnick has spent in China. He likes the Spring Festival and the traditions here. He also teaches his daughter Selina Lee Pinnick these traditions. As the new year begins, people are starting new chapters in their lives and making resolutions. Pinnick also has many plans and wishes — he plans on making more efforts to learn the Chinese language this year. In addition to learning Chinese, Pinnick will continue to learn about traditional Chinese culture and how to play Chinese musical instruments in his leisure time, and he will share his experience on social media. “I think that the experience I’ve had being a foreigner coming to China and learning the culture from outside, is unique. I hope to introduce Chinese Kung Fu and traditions to more westerners,” he said. 4. What was Pinnick’s main reason for traveling to the Wudang Mountains? A. To learn Chinese Kung Fu. B. To know about Taoist culture. C. To visit some places of interest. D. To celebrate the Spring Festival. 5. Which of the following best describes Pinnick? A. Well-rounded. B. Generous. C. Hardworking. D. Selfless. 6. What can we infer about Pinnick according to the article? A. He planned to open a Chinese Kung Fu school. B. He became skillful at different kinds of Kung Fu. C. He asked his daughter to learn Chinese musical instruments. D. He practised Kung Fu before coming to the Wudang Mountains. 7. Why does Pinnick hope to share his experience on social media? A. To become famous online. B. To take in more apprentices. C. To show off his unique experience. D. To act as a bridge between cultures. C In the modern era mirrors often show physical images (形象) as well as the mental struggles of self-awareness, especially among teenagers. The glass surfaces, found in bedrooms and bathrooms around the world, have seen the silent battles that many young individuals face. Appearance anxiety has become a widespread issue, with social media and peer pressure acting as magnifying glasses (放大镜) that mislead them about their self-worth. Filtered (滤镜处理过的) photos posted on platforms like TikTok have created an environment where seeking perfection seems not just desirable but necessary. To make matters worse, the strong desire for the perfect appearance has led many teenagers to make unhealthy comparisons, often resulting in negative self-talks and more worries about their looks. The deep-rooted problem can affect mental health in particular. Studies have shown that teenagers who are overly concerned with their looks are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and low self-confidence. The pressure to be up to beauty standards is huge, and it often begins at a young age. The seemingly perfect images in magazines, on television and social media platforms create an unrealistic standard for teenagers to measure themselves against. Unfortunately, it can lead to a lasting state of dissatisfaction with their looks. To solve the problem, it is important to understand that beauty is not a one-size-fits-all concept. It varies from person to person. We ought to encourage teenagers to accept their unique features and to understand that their worth is not defined by their looks. Parents, educators, and society as a whole have a role to play in developing a more acceptable and positive view of beauty. We are also supposed to teach young people that the journey towards self-acceptance is just as important as acquiring great knowledge and developing other skills. 8. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning “mirrors” in paragraph 1? A. To introduce the topic. B. To provide examples. C. To show his argument. D. To make comparisons. 9. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about? A. Mental struggles of teenagers. B. Problems faced by teenagers. C. Causes of teenage appearance anxiety. D. Effects of social media on teenagers. 10. What is a result of teenage appearance anxiety according to the text? A. Teenagers are not satisfied with beauty standards. B. Teenagers are more likely to suffer mental problems. C. Teenagers are more likely to have poor physical health. D. Teenagers are not satisfied with social media platforms. 11. What does the writer try to do in the last paragraph? A. Call on parents to understand young people better. B. Encourage young people to acquire more knowledge. C. Inspire teenagers to develop as many skills as possible. D. Give advice on how to deal with teenage appearance anxiety. D Imagine you’re walking across endless hills, with warm sunshine and the sound of birds all around. This peaceful scene is a rare one in the modern world. Our natural soundscapes (声音环境) are falling silent as bird populations reduce. Our study explores the link between birdsong and people, specifically on English vineyards (葡萄园). We surveyed bird communities on 21 vineyards and our results showed that vineyards with more bird species (物种) had louder and more complex (复杂的) soundscapes. But does the silencing of our soundscapes matter to us? The short answer is yes. There is growing evidence about the health benefits of spending time in nature, including reducing risks of heart disease and anxiety. So as part of our research, we explored the experience of 186 wine-tour participants (参与者) across three vineyards with different soundscapes. We also improved some vineyard soundscapes with hidden speakers, which played the songs of five additional bird species. This was designed to see how participants’ contact with nature would be affected by increasing the kinds of birds and songs. The results were fascinating. Visitors who experienced louder and more complex sounds — whether on vineyards with naturally richer soundscapes or on those we had improved — reported enjoying the sounds more. They felt more connected to nature and more satisfied with their tour. With richer soundscapes, they felt more mindful and positive during the tours. Our study shows the direct effect that birdsong has on our happiness and presents a strong argument for protecting natural soundscapes. So, we hope businesses and people will be inspired to invest (投资) in protection and promote connection with nature. 12. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To show opinions. B. To amuse readers. C. To introduce the topic. D. To explain the causes. 13. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of the research. B. The objectives of the research. C. The findings of the research. D. The importance of the research. 14. What does the underlined word “fascinating” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Too boring. B. Very surprising. C. Quite interesting. D.

The communication signals are various and have developed over countless generations, finely adjusted to meet their specific needs. ____16____ One common form of animal communication is through vocalizations. Birds are masters of this. For example, the melodious songs of nightingales aren’t just for our enjoyment. Males sing to mark their territory, warning other males to stay away. ____17____ The more powerful the song is, the more likely the female is to mate. ____18____ Wolves use a complex system of body postures. When a wolf holds its tail high and stiff, it shows its power in its group. In contrast, a relaxed, loosely wagging tail indicates a friendly mood. Submissive wolves, on the other hand, will lower their bodies, tuck their tails, and avoid direct eye contact, communicating their non-threatening status. Chemical signals, often in the form of pheromones (信息素), are widely used too. Ants release pheromones along its way to lead fellow ants to food sources. ____19____ Female moths can detect the pheromones of male moths from miles away, enabling them to find each other for mating. Some animals even use visual displays. Peacocks (孔雀) spread their beautiful tails in a dazzling fan. This isn’t just for show; it’s a way to attract peahens during the breeding season. ____20____ The more brilliant the display is, the more likely they are to catch a female’s eye and pass on their genes. In conclusion, the animal kingdom’s communication systems are a wonder of nature. Understanding these communication methods gives us a fascinating peek into the animal kingdom’s hidden social lives. A. People recognize the signals suggesting changes. B. It’s like a map guiding them to find the destination. C. A wagging tail can mean friendliness or excitement. D. And another purpose is to catch the attention of a female. E. Body language is also an important way to communicate. F. The bright colors and patterns show good health and genetic quality. G. By understanding these signals, we can appreciate the animal world more easily. 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） I have the bad habit of skipping to the last pages of a book to see how it ends while I’m still in the middle of it.

There was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother as she read stories to me. When I was in primary school and old enough to read, I enjoyed reading stories aloud to her. I will never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed (排练) my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s (旁白、解说员) part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl. I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden. It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions (蒲公英) in the grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red, yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.” “But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful --- even dandelions.” My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower is beautiful in its own way, isn’t it?” She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled, patting me gently. “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said. 注意： 1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the play, I took home the dandelions. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
