Today I’d like to share with you my journey into dog rescue. Actually, my journey happened later in life. Growing up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I never had a dog or cat due to my mom’s illness. My twenties and thirties were spent moving west for my career and really focusing on that. It wasn’t until my late thirties that my husband, Alex suggested that we get a dog. We both wanted a big dog and agreed that rescuing one would be best. This was my first entry into the world of rescue. We spent the next few weeks working with an animal shelter in los Angeles to find the perfect dog for us. Finally, Spencer came into our lives. Because of Spencer, I would go on to volunteer at the animal shelter for the next two years and my love for dog rescue developed. After two years volunteering work, I got asked to be the animal rescue event director. I was fond of this role. Every weekend I showed our little dogs and interacted with the public. I got to celebrate rescuing over 250 dogs during my time there, as well as adopting two more boys of my own, Junior and Thor. It is really worth while to be at events, meeting the dog and volunteers and celebrating as each lucky dogs finds their forever home. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A The World’s Most Striking Tourist Destinations Adventurers, grab your passports because there’s nothing relaxing about these holiday spots. Half Dome,Yosemite National Park,USA The 1500-metre climb to the top of Half Dome is the most difficult of Yosemite Valley’s day hikes, and it’s the last 120 meters that are the most dangerous. While there are ladder-like metal cables (缆绳) to help you reach the summit without rock climbing equipment, falling off them could be deadly. Cliffs of Moher, Ireland With breathtaking views of the Aran Islands and Galway Bay, the Cliffs of Moher is one of Ireland’s most popular tourist attractions. However, it’s also one of the most dangerous, and one misstep at the edge could result in a 213-metre fall into the Atlantic. The safest way to experience the beauty of the cliffs is from the official path or one of three viewing platforms. Mount Everest, Nepal Visiting Mount Everest attracts around 1200 climbers each year. However, only about half ever reach the summit, and a few will die trying, according to the New York Times. By now, there have been 304 deaths, according to alanarnette.com. Trift Bridge, Switzerland Believe it or not, the Trift Bridge in the Swiss Alps Mountains is much safer than it looks. Still, acrophobes (恐高者) will likely want to avoid this dangerous man-made spot. At 90 metres high and 170 metres long, the Trift Bridge is one of the longest and highest pedestrian suspension bridges in the Alps, requiring three cable car rides to reach it. 21. Where can you enjoy the sight of sea? A. At Half Dome. B. At Cliffs of Moher. C. At Mount Everest. D. At Trift Bridge. 22. What can we know about Mount Everest? A. It has three viewing platforms. B. There are cables helping climbers up. C. It has claimed at least 300 lives so far. D. About 600 climbers have ever reached its summit. 23. Which of the following can describe all the four places? A. They are all natural scenic spots. B. They are all dangerous scenic spots. C. Tourists must do much rock climbing in each place. D. Tourists must use climbing equipment in each place. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了世界上四个最惊险的旅游目的地。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Cliffs of Moher, Ireland部分中“With breathtaking views of the Aran Islands and Galway Bay, the Cliffs of Moher is one of Ireland’s most popular tourist attractions. However, it’s also one of the most dangerous, and one misstep at the edge could result in a 213-metre fall into the Atlantic. (Cliffs of Moher拥有阿伦群岛和戈尔韦湾的壮丽景色，是爱尔兰最受欢迎的旅游景点之一。然而，它也是最危险的地方之一，在悬崖边缘稍有不慎就可能坠入213米深的大西洋。)”可知，在Cliffs of Moher可以欣赏到海景。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Mount Everest, Nepal部分中“By now, there have been 304 deaths, according to alanarnette.com. (截至目前，据alanarnette.com统计，已有304人丧生。)”可知，到目前为止，珠穆朗玛峰已经夺去了至少300人的生命。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段“Adventurers, grab your passports because there’s nothing relaxing about these holiday spots. (冒险家们，拿起你们的护照吧，因为这些度假胜地可一点都不轻松。)”结合文章中对四个景点的描述可知，这四个地方都是危险的旅游景点。故选B。 B Nadine Grimm’s A Grammar of Gyeli opens with a moving quote honoring ancestors: “For our ancestors who have left us - may we keep their wisdom.” This sets the tone for her study of the Gyeli language in Ngòló, a small village in southern Cameroon, rich in culture and hidden knowledge. In her prize-winning work, Grimm displays the essence of the Gyeli language, spoken by the Bagyeli people, who are sometimes called “Pygmies.” The grammatical description, which is presented in a form-to-function approach, covers all levels of language, ranging from Gyeli speech sounds to its information structure and complex sentences. Her path to studying African languages began by chance during her Bachelor’s degree in General Linguistics and French. She had an unexpected opportunity to work with a professor in Nigeria, which led to her first African language conference and started her interest in African languages. Grimm’s research includes deep fieldwork, such as recording conversations and joining in everyday activities with the Bagyeli. At first, she used assistants to communicate due to language barriers, but as her understanding grew, she began talking directly with the speakers. This method differs from traditional ones, focusing on real language use rather than simple word-for-word translations. The importance of reference grammars like Grimm’s becomes clear in light of the global problem of disappearing languages. With 50-90% of the world’s languages at risk, documenting languages like Gyeli is essential. “When languages die, we lose entire knowledge systems,” Grimm says. Her work not only records the Gyeli language but also adds to the understanding of endangered Bantu languages in general. It represents one of the most comprehensive descriptions of a northwestern Bantu language. For her efforts, Grimm was awarded the 2023 Bloomfield Book Award from the Linguistic Society of America. A single Bloomfield Book award is made annually to recognize “a volume that makes an outstanding contribution of long-term value to the understanding of language and linguistics.” Grimm’s work was praised for adding audio and video recordings that improve reliability in language research. 24. Why did Grimm write A Grammar of Gyeli? A. To keep a knowledge system. B. To honor her ancestors. C. To record the tone of Gyeli. D. To satisfy her interest in languages. 25. What do we know about the Gyeli language? A. It is endangered. B. It is simple in structure. C. It has to be studied in a form-to-function approach. D. It functions differently from other Bantu languages. 26. Why does the author mention Bantu languages? A. To highlight their importance. B. To illustrate the problem of disappearing languages. C. To emphasize the urgency of protecting them. D. To demonstrate the value of Grimm’s study. 27. What contributed most to the success of Grimm’s research? A. Her work with a professor in Nigeria. B. Her ability in learning a new language. C. Her relationship with the Bagyeli people. D. Her unique and reliable research method. 【答案】24. A 25. A 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了Nadine Grimm对Gyeli语言的研究及其重要性。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Nadine Grimm’s A Grammar of Gyeli opens with a moving quote honoring ancestors: “For our ancestors who have left us - may we keep their wisdom.” (Nadine Grimm的A Grammar of Gyeli以一段纪念祖先的感人语录开场：“为了离开我们的祖先——愿我们保留他们的智慧。”)”可知，Grimm写A Grammar of Gyeli是为了保持一个知识体系。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“The importance of reference grammars like Grimm’s becomes clear in light of the global problem of disappearing languages. With 50-90% of the world’s languages at risk, documenting languages like Gyeli is essential. (鉴于全球语言消亡这一严峻问题，Grimm等参考语法著作的重要性便显而易见。全球有50%至90%的语言面临消亡风险，因此，记录诸如Gyeli这样的语言至关重要。)”可知，Gyeli语是濒临灭绝的，故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Her work not only records the Gyeli language but also adds to the understanding of endangered Bantu languages in general. It represents one of the most comprehensive descriptions of a northwestern Bantu language. (她的工作不仅记录了Gyeli语，还增进了人们对濒危Bantu语整体的理解。这代表了对西北Bantu语最全面的描述之一。)”可知，作者提到Bantu语是为了证明Grimm的研究的价值。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Grimm’s work was praised for adding audio and video recordings that improve reliability in language research. (Grimm的工作因增加了音频和视频记录而受到赞扬，这些记录提高了语言研究的可靠性。)”可知，她独特而可靠的研究方法促成了她研究的成功。故选D。 C Intensity exercises often get praised for their role in preventing illnesses like high blood pressure, heart disease, and Type 2 diabetes-not to mention their mental health benefits. But there’s a common mistake: the more intense the exercise, the better the benefits. A recent research shows that low-to-moderate (低到中等的) intensity exercise,such as Zone 2 training,maybe just as-or even more-effective for improving health and endurance (持久力). Exercise intensity is often broken down into five separate heart rate zones, each representing a different percentage of your maximum heart rate. Zone 2, which falls between 60 to 70 percent of a person’s maximum heart rate, is “your all-day pace”. Theoretically, it’s at such a low intensity that you can keep going and going. This kind of exercise offers a unique advantage：it's just below the lactate threshold (乳酸阈值) the point where lactate-an essential energy source-builds up in the blood faster than it can be removed. As exercise intensity increases beyond Zone 2, the body’s energy demands shift to favor a lactate-producing system over a lactate-consuming one. At these higher intensities, carbohydrate (碳水化合物) use increases as a rapid fuel source while fat burning slows down. Zone 2 exercises can provide a competitive advantage for endurance athletes, as fat is more readily available as an energy source than sugars. “If you are able to use fat as an energy source when you are exercising, you are going to reduce your reliance on sugar stores,” says Holmer,an exercise scientist. It also improves endurance by increasing the body’s ability to use a more efficient way for longer periods of exercise. For people just starting a fitness routine, Zone 2 training has some additional benefits,the major one being that it is sustainable. Zone 2 training can be done at a moderate pace, leaving a person feeling better the next day and ready to go again. In contrast, over-reliance on high-intensity training can lead to quicker burnout and longer recovery times.“Exercise doesn’t have to hurt,” Holmer says. 28. How can we describe “your all-day pace” in paragraph 2? A. Sustainable. B. Difficult. C. Unchanged. D. Unrealistic. 29. Which of the following happens when Zone 2 training is done? A. The burning of fat slows down. B. The use of carbohydrate is enhanced. C. Lactate is removed faster than it is built up. D. The lactate-producing system is favored. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. How Zone 2 training benefits endurance. B. Whether Zone 2 training is good to athletes. C. What is used as energy sources for Zone 2 exercises. D. Why a more efficient way is used for Zone 2 exercises. 31. What does Holmer suggest starters do by saying “Exercise doesn’t have to hurt”? A. Stop doing too much Zone 2 training. B. Stop doing high-intensity training. C. Do training at a moderate pace. D. Do less exercise to avoid hurting themselves. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了低到中等强度的运动（如Zone 2训练）对健康和耐力的益处，尤其是其在预防疾病、提高身体效率方面的优势。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Zone 2, which falls between 60 to 70 percent of a person’s maximum heart rate, is “ your all-day pace.” Theoretically, it’s at such a low intensity that you can keep going and going.(Zone 2训练处于一个人最大心率的60%到70%之间，是“你全天的节奏”。理论上，它的强度很低，你可以持续进行)”可知，“your all-day pace”指的是可持续的运动节奏。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This kind of exercise offers a unique advantage：it’s just below the lactate threshold the point where lactate-an essential energy source-builds up in the blood faster than it can be removed.(这种运动有一个独特的优势：它刚好低于乳酸阈值，乳酸是一种必需的能量来源，在血液中积累的速度比去除的速度要快)”可知，Zone 2训练时，乳酸的清除速度比积累速度快。故选C。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Zone 2 exercises can provide a competitive advantage for endurance athletes, as fat is more readily available as an energy source than sugars. “If you are able to use fat as an energy source when you are exercising, you are going to reduce your reliance on sugar stores,” says Holmer,an exercise scientist. It also improves endurance by increasing the body’s ability to use a more efficient way for longer periods of exercise.(Zone 2可以为耐力运动员提供竞争优势，因为脂肪比糖更容易作为能量来源。运动科学家霍尔默说：“如果你在锻炼时能够将脂肪作为能量来源，你就会减少对糖储存的依赖。”它还通过增加身体使用更有效的方式进行长时间运动的能力来提高耐力)”可知，本段主要讲述Zone 2训练如何增强耐力。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For people just starting a fitness routine, Zone 2 training has some additional benefits,the major one being that it is sustainable. Zone 2 training can be done at a moderate pace, leaving a person feeling better the next day and ready to go again. In contrast, over-reliance on high-intensity training can lead to quicker burnout and longer recovery times.“Exercise doesn’t have to hurt,“ Holmer says.对于刚开始健身的人来说，Zone 2训练有一些额外的好处，主要的是它是可持续的。Zone 2训练可以以适度的速度进行，让一个人在第二天感觉更好，并准备好再次进行。相反，过度依赖高强度训练会导致更快的疲劳和更长的恢复时间。“运动并不一定会造成伤害，”霍尔默说)”可知，Holmer建议初学者以适度的速度进行训练。选故选C。 D “Digital switching” is a term that refers to the modern habit of swiping (刷) through and fast-forwarding online videos. Researchers from Canada did some exploration of it. Kay Y. Y. Tam, a psychology researcher, launched the study after noticing herself — and pretty much everyone else — swiping through online videos. This behavior was connected with the “Boredom Feedback Model”, a theory she had published in 2021. Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning. “As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said. In her study, more than 1,200 participants, many of them university students, first watched a single video for ten minutes. They were then presented with seven shorter videos, with the option to skip to the next. On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment. “I’m convinced that switching, when it comes to videos, is not a good idea if the goal is to have an enjoyable experience,” said Erin Westgate, a professor of psychology. “Sitting and toughing it out is likely a better choice.” The new findings add to a growing body of evidence that boredom is on the rise, despite a world filled with content we can access at all times. People who are bored often turn to their phones, only to feel more bored. Swiping on social media has also been linked to increased feelings of boredom. Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation. 32. What is the cause of attention shifts according to Tam’s theory? A. The unsatisfied desire. B. The feeling of boredom. C. The degree of engagement. D. The lack of emotion. 33. What does Tam’s study of “digital switching” focus on? A. Its reason. B. Its consequence. C. The solution to it. D. The theory behind it. 34. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To solve a problem. B. To make a suggestion. C. To raise a question. D. To give a warning. 35. What does the comparison between “digital switching” and an animal jumping from tree to tree imply? A. Digital switching can lead to a waste of time and effort. B. Animals are more efficient than humans in searching for resources. C. Boredom is a natural response to unproductive activities. D. Quick escapes can prevent us from achieving meaningful engagement. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“数字切换”这一行为，包括其与注意力转移、无聊感的关系，以及过度依赖 “数字切换” 可能带来的问题。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning.(她提出，无聊源于注意力转移。当人们实际的投入程度与他们想要的投入程度之间存在差距时，这些转移经常会发生。当一种情况缺乏新奇感或意义时，这种不愉快的情绪就会产生。)”可知，当人们实际投入程度与想要的投入程度有差距时，注意力就会转移，由此可知，注意力转移的原因是人们未满足的欲望。故选A项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的““As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said.( ‘由于数字切换涉及频繁的注意力转移，我想知道这种行为可能如何影响我们的无聊感，’塔姆说。)”以及第四段中的“On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment.(平均来说，他们跳过了八次——但当他们观看单个视频时，他们表示感到更无聊，投入度更低。参与者在另一个类似的实验中也有类似的经历。)”可知，塔姆对“数字切换”的研究重点是这种行为的后果，即人们在进行“数字切换”后感到更无聊和投入度更低。故选B项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.(无聊可以激励人们探索他们的环境，并停止在几乎没有回报的活动上投入时间。然而，如果我们过度依赖快速逃避，就像一只动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树寻找食物，却没有停留足够的时间去看一棵树是否结果。那只动物有饿死的风险。)”可知，最后一段通过把过度依赖快速逃避（“数字切换”）比喻成动物在林间跳跃寻找食物最终可能导致饿死，来警示读者这种行为可能导致的不好的结果；由此可知，最后一段的主要目的是发出警告，故选D项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.(然而，如果我们过度依赖快速逃避，就像一只动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树寻找食物，却没有停留足够的时间去看一棵树是否结果。那只动物有饿死的风险。)”可知，将“数字切换”与动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树作比较，意味着快速逃避（“数字切换”）会阻止我们实现有意义的投入，就像动物没有在一棵树上停留足够时间，无法收获果实一样。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，从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Music and art have always been closely connected, with each influencing the other in important ways. Artists are increasingly integrating musical elements into their work, creating experiences that blur (模糊) the boundaries between the auditory and visual senses. One of the most striking examples of this trend is the rise of “sound art” which explores the relationship between sound and visual representation. Sound art combinations often involve large-scale, interactive sound environments. _____36_____ They can create an environment where the viewer becomes an active participant in the artistic experience. _____37_____This integration allows for a dynamic interplay between sound and image. The live performances add an element of naturalness and unpredictability to the exhibitions, making each visit a unique and unrepeatable experience.

An ___58___ (elder) Chinese man, sensing my excitement, shared tales of how his grandfather helped repair the wall in his youth.

Many high school students often turned to her for guidance and as her neighbor, me included. One afternoon, feeling troubled and uncertain about my future after a disappointing exam,I decided to knock on Mrs. Thompson’s door. “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life,” I admitted, my eyes fixed on the floor.“It feels like everyone else has it all figured out, and I’m just stuck.“ My voice trembled with sadness and a hint of fear. I had bombed my last math test, and it felt like that failure stayed in every corner of my mind, increasing my anxiety about college examination and what I might want to pursue. While my friends seemed to advance effortlessly through their studies, I was struggling to stay afloat.The feeling that I was falling behind only deepened my sense of hopelessness. Mrs. Thompson listened carefully, her face a picture of calm and understanding. Without saying much， she handed me a small tomato seedling (苗) in a pot. The tiny plant，with its delicate green leaves, seemed to symbolize a slight sign of hope. ”Let’s plant this in the garden,“ she said gently. “Water it every day and make sure it gets enough sunlight. But for a whole week, don’t focus on its progress. Just trust that it’s growing.” Every day, I faithfully watered the little seedling, as if I was putting my own hopes into it.I carefully ensured it got the right amount of sunlight, positioning it just so under the sun’s rays.With great self-control, I resisted the urge to examine it too closely. As the days went by, I felt a mix of eagerness and impatience, like a child waiting for a long-promised gift,longing to see some sign that my efforts were making a difference. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: One day,as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】“Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. With a heart full of anticipation, I followed her to the garden. When we reached the spot where we’d planted the seedling, I was amazed. The once - tiny plant had grown significantly. Its leaves were greener and more robust, and it stood taller, reaching towards the sky. Mrs. Thompson looked at me and smiled, “You see, just like this seedling, growth doesn’t always happen at a speed we can immediately notice. Your efforts in studying are like the care you gave this plant. They’re working, even if you can’t see the results right away.” One day, as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. A sense of joy and accomplishment washed over me. That little flower was a symbol of hope and proof that my care had paid off. It made me realize that just as the seedling needed time and consistent care to bloom, so did I in my studies. I no longer felt as lost or hopeless. From then on, I faced my study challenges with newfound confidence, knowing that with perseverance, my efforts would surely lead to beautiful “blooms” in my future. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在考试失利后向Thompson夫人求助的经历。Thompson夫人让作者种植番茄幼苗让作者明白成长和努力的成果不会立即显现，就如同照顾幼苗一样，学习上的努力也会在未来开花结果。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们去看看那株植物吧。”一周后，Thompson夫人对我说。”以及第二段首句内容“有一天，当我弯腰给它浇水时，一朵小小的黄色花朵引起了我的注意。”可知，第一段可描写作者发现西红柿苗长势喜人，Thompson夫人告诉作者努力终会有回报。 ②由第二段首句内容“有一天，当我弯腰给它浇水时，一朵小小的黄色花朵引起了我的注意。”可知，第二段可描写作者深有感触，明白了学习需要坚持，才会有好的结果。 2.续写线索：Thompson夫人建议作者一起看看番茄苗——作者看到番茄苗的时候惊呆了，小小的植物已经变大了，更茁壮了——Thompson夫人告诉作者，成长总是在不经意间发生，只要有努力，就会有回报——有一天，作者给番茄苗浇水时，突然发现了一朵小黄花——作者心中涌起一种喜悦和成就感——作者意识到，就像番茄苗需要时间和持续的照料才能开花一样，自己学习上也需要这样——作者不再迷茫和绝望，因为作者相信，只要坚持，终有回报 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：(be) full of/ (be) filled with ②注意到：notice/ spot ③带来、导致：lead to/ contribute to 情绪类 ①惊讶的：amazed/ surprised ②成就感：a sense of accomplishment/ a sense of achievement 【点睛】【高分句型1】When we reached the spot where we’d planted the seedling, I was amazed.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句和where引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】Your efforts in studying are like the care you gave this plant.（运用了省略关系代词的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是2025年苏锡常镇四市高三教学情况调研。一、英语试卷听力部分该部分分为第一第二两节。注意，回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。听力测试正式开始。第一节听下面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。Hey, lily, naja too, is on a star cinema.

Half Dome,Yosemite National Park,USA The 1500-metre climb to the top of Half Dome is the most difficult of Yosemite Valley’s day hikes, and it’s the last 120 meters that are the most dangerous. While there are ladder-like metal cables (缆绳) to help you reach the summit without rock climbing equipment, falling off them could be deadly. Cliffs of Moher, Ireland With breathtaking views of the Aran Islands and Galway Bay, the Cliffs of Moher is one of Ireland’s most popular tourist attractions. However, it’s also one of the most dangerous, and one misstep at the edge could result in a 213-metre fall into the Atlantic. The safest way to experience the beauty of the cliffs is from the official path or one of three viewing platforms. Mount Everest, Nepal Visiting Mount Everest attracts around 1200 climbers each year. However, only about half ever reach the summit, and a few will die trying, according to the New York Times. By now, there have been 304 deaths, according to alanarnette.com. Trift Bridge, Switzerland Believe it or not, the Trift Bridge in the Swiss Alps Mountains is much safer than it looks. Still, acrophobes (恐高者) will likely want to avoid this dangerous man-made spot. At 90 metres high and 170 metres long, the Trift Bridge is one of the longest and highest pedestrian suspension bridges in the Alps, requiring three cable car rides to reach it. 21. Where can you enjoy the sight of sea? A. At Half Dome. B. At Cliffs of Moher. C. At Mount Everest. D. At Trift Bridge. 22. What can we know about Mount Everest? A. It has three viewing platforms. B. There are cables helping climbers up. C. It has claimed at least 300 lives so far. D. About 600 climbers have ever reached its summit. 23. Which of the following can describe all the four places? A. They are all natural scenic spots. B. They are all dangerous scenic spots. C. Tourists must do much rock climbing in each place. D. Tourists must use climbing equipment in each place. B Nadine Grimm’s A Grammar of Gyeli opens with a moving quote honoring ancestors: “For our ancestors who have left us - may we keep their wisdom.” This sets the tone for her study of the Gyeli language in Ngòló, a small village in southern Cameroon, rich in culture and hidden knowledge. In her prize-winning work, Grimm displays the essence of the Gyeli language, spoken by the Bagyeli people, who are sometimes called “Pygmies.” The grammatical description, which is presented in a form-to-function approach, covers all levels of language, ranging from Gyeli speech sounds to its information structure and complex sentences. Her path to studying African languages began by chance during her Bachelor’s degree in General Linguistics and French. She had an unexpected opportunity to work with a professor in Nigeria, which led to her first African language conference and started her interest in African languages. Grimm’s research includes deep fieldwork, such as recording conversations and joining in everyday activities with the Bagyeli. At first, she used assistants to communicate due to language barriers, but as her understanding grew, she began talking directly with the speakers. This method differs from traditional ones, focusing on real language use rather than simple word-for-word translations. The importance of reference grammars like Grimm’s becomes clear in light of the global problem of disappearing languages. With 50-90% of the world’s languages at risk, documenting languages like Gyeli is essential. “When languages die, we lose entire knowledge systems,” Grimm says. Her work not only records the Gyeli language but also adds to the understanding of endangered Bantu languages in general. It represents one of the most comprehensive descriptions of a northwestern Bantu language. For her efforts, Grimm was awarded the 2023 Bloomfield Book Award from the Linguistic Society of America. A single Bloomfield Book award is made annually to recognize “a volume that makes an outstanding contribution of long-term value to the understanding of language and linguistics.” Grimm’s work was praised for adding audio and video recordings that improve reliability in language research. 24. Why did Grimm write A Grammar of Gyeli? A. To keep a knowledge system. B. To honor her ancestors. C. To record the tone of Gyeli. D. To satisfy her interest in languages. 25. What do we know about the Gyeli language? A. It is endangered. B. It is simple in structure. C. It has to be studied in a form-to-function approach. D. It functions differently from other Bantu languages. 26. Why does the author mention Bantu languages? A. To highlight their importance. B. To illustrate the problem of disappearing languages. C. To emphasize the urgency of protecting them. D. To demonstrate the value of Grimm’s study. 27. What contributed most to the success of Grimm’s research? A. Her work with a professor in Nigeria. B. Her ability in learning a new language. C. Her relationship with the Bagyeli people. D. Her unique and reliable research method. C Intensity exercises often get praised for their role in preventing illnesses like high blood pressure, heart disease, and Type 2 diabetes-not to mention their mental health benefits. But there’s a common mistake: the more intense the exercise, the better the benefits. A recent research shows that low-to-moderate (低到中等的) intensity exercise,such as Zone 2 training,maybe just as-or even more-effective for improving health and endurance (持久力). Exercise intensity is often broken down into five separate heart rate zones, each representing a different percentage of your maximum heart rate. Zone 2, which falls between 60 to 70 percent of a person’s maximum heart rate, is “your all-day pace”. Theoretically, it’s at such a low intensity that you can keep going and going. This kind of exercise offers a unique advantage：it's just below the lactate threshold (乳酸阈值) the point where lactate-an essential energy source-builds up in the blood faster than it can be removed. As exercise intensity increases beyond Zone 2, the body’s energy demands shift to favor a lactate-producing system over a lactate-consuming one. At these higher intensities, carbohydrate (碳水化合物) use increases as a rapid fuel source while fat burning slows down. Zone 2 exercises can provide a competitive advantage for endurance athletes, as fat is more readily available as an energy source than sugars. “If you are able to use fat as an energy source when you are exercising, you are going to reduce your reliance on sugar stores,” says Holmer,an exercise scientist. It also improves endurance by increasing the body’s ability to use a more efficient way for longer periods of exercise. For people just starting a fitness routine, Zone 2 training has some additional benefits,the major one being that it is sustainable. Zone 2 training can be done at a moderate pace, leaving a person feeling better the next day and ready to go again. In contrast, over-reliance on high-intensity training can lead to quicker burnout and longer recovery times.“Exercise doesn’t have to hurt,” Holmer says. 28. How can we describe “your all-day pace” in paragraph 2? A. Sustainable. B. Difficult. C. Unchanged. D. Unrealistic. 29. Which of the following happens when Zone 2 training is done? A. The burning of fat slows down. B. The use of carbohydrate is enhanced. C. Lactate is removed faster than it is built up. D. The lactate-producing system is favored. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. How Zone 2 training benefits endurance. B. Whether Zone 2 training is good to athletes. C. What is used as energy sources for Zone 2 exercises. D. Why a more efficient way is used for Zone 2 exercises. 31. What does Holmer suggest starters do by saying “Exercise doesn’t have to hurt”? A. Stop doing too much Zone 2 training. B. Stop doing high-intensity training. C. Do training at a moderate pace. D. Do less exercise to avoid hurting themselves. D “Digital switching” is a term that refers to the modern habit of swiping (刷) through and fast-forwarding online videos. Researchers from Canada did some exploration of it. Kay Y. Y. Tam, a psychology researcher, launched the study after noticing herself — and pretty much everyone else — swiping through online videos. This behavior was connected with the “Boredom Feedback Model”, a theory she had published in 2021. Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning. “As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said. In her study, more than 1,200 participants, many of them university students, first watched a single video for ten minutes. They were then presented with seven shorter videos, with the option to skip to the next. On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment. “I’m convinced that switching, when it comes to videos, is not a good idea if the goal is to have an enjoyable experience,” said Erin Westgate, a professor of psychology. “Sitting and toughing it out is likely a better choice.” The new findings add to a growing body of evidence that boredom is on the rise, despite a world filled with content we can access at all times. People who are bored often turn to their phones, only to feel more bored. Swiping on social media has also been linked to increased feelings of boredom. Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation. 32. What is the cause of attention shifts according to Tam’s theory? A. The unsatisfied desire. B. The feeling of boredom. C. The degree of engagement. D. The lack of emotion. 33. What does Tam’s study of “digital switching” focus on? A. Its reason. B. Its consequence. C. The solution to it. D. The theory behind it. 34. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To solve a problem. B. To make a suggestion. C. To raise a question. D. To give a warning. 35. What does the comparison between “digital switching” and an animal jumping from tree to tree imply? A. Digital switching can lead to a waste of time and effort. B. Animals are more efficient than humans in searching for resources. C. Boredom is a natural response to unproductive activities. D. Quick escapes can prevent us from achieving meaningful engagement. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Music and art have always been closely connected, with each influencing the other in important ways. Artists are increasingly integrating musical elements into their work, creating experiences that blur (模糊) the boundaries between the auditory and visual senses. One of the most striking examples of this trend is the rise of “sound art” which explores the relationship between sound and visual representation. Sound art combinations often involve large-scale, interactive sound environments. _____36_____ They can create an environment where the viewer becomes an active participant in the artistic experience. _____37_____This integration allows for a dynamic interplay between sound and image. The live performances add an element of naturalness and unpredictability to the exhibitions, making each visit a unique and unrepeatable experience. Moreover, the use of music in film and video art has also developed. Artists are now experimenting with soundscapes that extend beyond traditional narrative (叙述) structures, using music to arouse emotions and create atmosphere rather than simply underline plot points. _____38_____ Despite these innovations, some artists argue that the integration of music into art can sometimes have different effects from the primary visual message. _______39_______They believe that music should serve as a complement (补充) to the visual art, enhancing its effect rather than overshadowing it. To address this concern, many artists are now focusing on creating a more harmonious balance between music and visual art. ______40______By carefully selecting and integrating musical elements, they aim to create works that are both visually striking and aurally (听觉上地) engaging, offering viewers a truly multisensory experience. A. The artist dislikes composing original music for the artworks. B. This special art form often challenges traditional ideas of storytelling. C. This trend highlights the importance of finding the right balance between them. D. These connections often use technology to transform sound in innovative ways. E. Another notable development is the integration of live music into art exhibitions. F. Instead,this does not mean that music should always give way to visual art. G. Critics have warned that the overuse of music can strongly impact the viewer's senses. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 TikTok user@mommom.maria has become a popular figure for frequently posting about her experiences as a grandma.

Many high school students often turned to her for guidance and as her neighbor, me included. One afternoon, feeling troubled and uncertain about my future after a disappointing exam,I decided to knock on Mrs. Thompson’s door. “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life,” I admitted, my eyes fixed on the floor.“It feels like everyone else has it all figured out, and I’m just stuck.“ My voice trembled with sadness and a hint of fear. I had bombed my last math test, and it felt like that failure stayed in every corner of my mind, increasing my anxiety about college examination and what I might want to pursue. While my friends seemed to advance effortlessly through their studies, I was struggling to stay afloat.The feeling that I was falling behind only deepened my sense of hopelessness. Mrs. Thompson listened carefully, her face a picture of calm and understanding. Without saying much， she handed me a small tomato seedling (苗) in a pot. The tiny plant，with its delicate green leaves, seemed to symbolize a slight sign of hope. ”Let’s plant this in the garden,“ she said gently. “Water it every day and make sure it gets enough sunlight. But for a whole week, don’t focus on its progress. Just trust that it’s growing.” Every day, I faithfully watered the little seedling, as if I was putting my own hopes into it.I carefully ensured it got the right amount of sunlight, positioning it just so under the sun’s rays.With great self-control, I resisted the urge to examine it too closely. As the days went by, I felt a mix of eagerness and impatience, like a child waiting for a long-promised gift,longing to see some sign that my efforts were making a difference. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: One day,as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
