C. 2 million dollars. 【答案】17. B 18. C 19. A 20. A 【解析】 【原文】Two early developers of artificial intelligence (AI) have won 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics. They are American John Hopfield working at Princeton University in New Jersey and Geoffrey Hinton who is a citizen of Canada and Britain working at the University of Toronto. In the 1980s, Hinton helped to develop a method, which is used to “train” computers to learn. Later, he headed a team at the University of Toronto that won the ImageNet competition in 2012 for designing a “neural network”. Hinton and another two AI scientists Yoshua Bengio and Yann LeCun won the Turing Award in 2019. It is the top award in computer science. The Nobel committee said Hopfield “invented a network that uses a method for saving and recreating patterns”. Hinton used ’network to create a new network using a different method known as the Boltzmann machine. The committee said this “machine” can learn to recognize elements in a particular kind of data. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics is valued at $1 million. It was equally divided. Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel created the prizes to honor discoveries that help humanity. The first prizes were awarded in 1901. The winners receive their prizes in ceremonies held on December 10. 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 Katra-Kashmir Valley Train Winter Timetable Traveling through the pretty SVDK (Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra) to Kashmir Valley route has never been more convenient.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了Katra-Kashmir Valley的冬季火车时间表等信息。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据时刻表From(出发站)列统计：SVDK：3 班列车(Vande Bharat及2班Mail/Express)；SGDN：2班列车(Regular Train 04639、04667)；BDGM：无列车从此站出发；BAHL：4班列车(Regular Train 04483、09761、04473 及Vistadome 04687)。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Key Highlights of the Train Services部分“●Vistadome Coaches: These coaches provide broad views of the snow-covered Kashmir Valley, making the journey as attractive as the destination.(●全景观光车厢：这些车厢能让乘客饱览白雪覆盖的克什米尔山谷的广阔景色，使旅途和目的地一样具有吸引力)” 可知，全景观光车厢非常适合风景优美的旅途。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Tips for Travelers部分“●Snowfall may affect train operations, so keep an eye on announcements from Northern Railways.(●降雪可能会影响列车运行，因此要留意印度北方铁路公司发布的公告)”可知，建议游客要关注天气方面的更新。故选C。 B Sea turtles can survive being struck by a boat — but as they recover, their shells often change shape, bulging (鼓起) from air building up within their bodies, which makes the animals unstable when they swim, resulting in “bubble butt syndrome (泡沫屁股综合征)” , which prevents turtles swimming or diving normally. Typically, turtles with this condition cannot be released back into the ocean. But a “bubble butt” male turtle named Charlotte is now swimming more smoothly at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, thanks to a harness (挽具) built by a 3D printer. It took several years of work, but in a recent fitting, the harness was moved quickly into place. “The staff was super pumped, ” says Alex Pestana, a sales engineer at 3D printing company Formlabs. “We help Charlotte out!” Charlotte passed from the Georgia Sea Turtle Center to the Mystic Aquarium. A male green sea turtle was given the name Bubble Butt at The Turtle Hospital in the Florida Keys shortly after he arrived there in 1989. To help him, they attached 2.5 pounds of lead to his shell. This helped, but it isn’t a permanent solution as the weights move as the animals grow. Bubble Butt died in 2022. But by then, efforts were under way to use 3D printing to help turtles like him. With harnesses like Charlotte’s, weights can be added gradually to assist the animals to adjust. The Turtle Hospital currently has around 15 turtles with bubble butt syndrome, according to Bette Zirkelbach, the hospital’s manager. “People who drive boats should obey speed restrictions, many of which apply in shallower areas,” Zirkelbach says. “In shallow water, animals like sea turtles and dolphins have nowhere to escape from boats — they can’t dive down.” 24. What is the main purpose of the 3D-printed harness for sea turtles like Charlotte? A. To repair their damaged shells. B. To assist them in swimming. C. To help them reduce their weight. D. To prevent air entering their bodies. 25. What does the underlined word “pumped” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Curious. B. Relaxed. C. Grateful. D. Excited. 26. What should we do according to Bette Zirkelbach? A. Avoid boat speeding. B. Build advanced boats. C. Protect bubble butt turtles. D. Change turtles’ living places. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Aquarium Protects Sea Turtles’ Health. B. 3D Printing Enhances Sea Turtles’ Recovery. C. Sea Turtles Beat Bubble Butt with 3D Printing. D. Bubble Butt Affects Sea Turtles’ Swimming. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了一个3D打印公司新开发出的一款3D打印挽具，以帮助患有“泡沫屁股综合征”的海龟可以正常游泳。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But a “bubble butt” male turtle named Charlotte is now swimming more smoothly at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, thanks to a harness (挽具) built by a 3D printer.(但一只名叫夏洛特的“泡沫屁股”雄性海龟现在在康涅狄格州的神秘水族馆里游得更顺畅了，这要归功于一台3D打印机制作的挽具)”及第三段“But by then, efforts were under way to use 3D printing to help turtles like him. With harnesses like Charlotte’s, weights can be added gradually to assist the animals to adjust.(但到那时，人们一直努力使用3D打印来帮助像他这样的海龟。有了夏洛特的这样的安全挽具，重量可以逐渐增加，以帮助动物适应)”可知，3D打印的这种挽具使海龟更顺畅地游泳，其核心目的是辅助游泳。故选B项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中划线词下文工程师Alex的引语“We help Charlotte out! (我们帮助到了夏洛特)”可知，此处pumped应表达工作人员因成功安装挽具帮助到受伤海龟，使它可以游泳时的兴奋心情。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中““People who drive boats should obey speed restrictions, many of which apply in shallower areas,” Zirkelbach says. “In shallow water, animals like sea turtles and dolphins have nowhere to escape from boats — they can’t dive down.”(“开船的人应该遵守速度限制规定，其中很多规定适用于较浅的水域，”Zirkelbach说道。“在浅水区，像海龟和海豚这样的动物无处躲避船只——它们无法下潜。”)”可知，在浅水区海龟无法潜水，Bette Zirkelbach建议驾船者限速，即避免船超速。故选A项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Sea turtles can survive being struck by a boat — but as they recover, their shells often change shape, bulging (鼓起) from air building up within their bodies, which makes the animals unstable when they swim, resulting in “bubble butt syndrome (泡沫屁股综合征)”, which prevents turtles swimming or diving normally.(海龟在被船撞击后可以存活下来——但在它们恢复的过程中，它们的壳经常会变形，由于体内空气积聚而鼓起，这使得它们在游泳时不稳定，从而导致“泡沫屁股综合征”，这使得海龟无法正常游泳或潜水)”以及第二段中“But a “bubble butt” male turtle named Charlotte is now swimming more smoothly at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, thanks to a harness (挽具) built by a 3D printer.(但一只名叫夏洛特的“泡沫屁股”雄性海龟现在在康涅狄格州的神秘水族馆里游得更顺畅了，这要归功于一台3D打印机制作的挽具)”结合文章主要说明了海龟在被船撞击后，会患上“泡沫屁股综合征”，这使得它们无法正常游泳或潜水，而3D打印技术制作的挽具帮助一只名叫夏洛特的海龟恢复正常游泳，这一技术也将继续帮助其他患病海龟。本文聚焦“泡沫屁股综合征”及3D打印挽具的救治方案。标题需涵盖“问题”与“科技解决手段”，故C选项“Sea Turtles Beat Bubble Butt with 3D Printing.(海龟用3D打印技术击败泡沫屁股综合征)”能很好地概括文章主旨，最适合作为本文标题。故选C。 C Among the great moments in literary history I wish I could have witnessed is that day, sometime after May 15, 1886, when Lavinia entered the bedroom of her newly deceased (去世) older sister and began opening drawers. Out sprang poems, almost 1,800 of them. Before that, Emily Dickinson had merely published a handful of poems during her lifetime. Jumping to the present, a new monumental volume of Dickinson’s letters — the first in over 60 years — gives us an engaged Emily Dickinson: a woman in conversation with the world, through chats, remarks about books, politics and the signal events of her age. Whatever Dickinson hoped for her poems, she could never have anticipated how they would resonate (共鸣) with readers or how curious those readers would be about her life. This new collection of The Letters of Emily Dickinson is edited by two Dickinson scholars, Cristanne Miller and Domhnall Mitchell, who’ve also added some 300 previously uncollected letters to this volume for a grand total of 1,304 letters. The result is that The Letters of Emily Dickinson reads like the closest thing we’ll probably ever have to reveal the secrets about the poet. The first letter is written by an 11-year-old Dickinson to her brother Austin. It’s about yellow hens and poor “Cousin Zebina fell ill the other day and bit his tongue...”. The final letter, by a seriously sick 55-year-old Dickinson, was to her cousins Louisa and Frances Norcross. In between is a life filled with visitors, housework and recipes for doughnuts and coconut cakes. There’s mention of public figures like Florence Nightingale and Walt Whitman as well as the impact of Civil War. There are 1,304 letters, and, still, they’re not enough. Scholars estimate that we only have about one-tenth of the letters Dickinson ever wrote. And, on that momentous day in 1886, Lavinia entered her sister’s bedroom to find and successfully burn all the letters Dickinson herself had received from others during her lifetime. Such was the custom of the day, which makes this new volume of Dickinson’s letters feel like breaking the silence of death — something I want to believe Dickinson would have liked. 28. Which word best describes the discovery of the poems in Dickinson’s bedroom? A. Satisfying. B. Inspiring. C. Astonishing. D. Interesting. 29. What can be inferred about Dickinson’s poems? A. They won her dominance in politics. B. They are very popular among readers. C. They fail to resonate with modern poets. D. They led to historical events at that time. 30. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about The Letters of Emily Dickinson? A. The content of it. B. The impact of it. C. The comment on it. D. The background of it. 31. What does the author intend to express in the last paragraph? A. Dickinson was proud of her private letters. B. The new collection is particularly precious. C. Losing Dickinson’s letters was unexpected. D. The custom was to blame for Dickinson’s death. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了新出版的《艾米莉・狄金森书信集》这本书的由来、内容及作者对其的看法。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Out sprang poems, almost 1,800 of them. Before that, Emily Dickinson had merely published a handful of poems during her lifetime.(大量的诗涌现出来，将近1800首。在那之前，艾米莉・狄金森在她的一生中只发表过几首诗)”可知，狄金森生前发表的诗很少，死后却在她卧室发现了近1800首诗，可推理出这种发现是令人惊讶的。故选C项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Whatever Dickinson hoped for her poems, she could never have anticipated how they would resonate with readers or how curious those readers would be about her life.(无论狄金森对她的诗有什么期望，她都无法预料到它们会如何引起读者的共鸣，以及读者对她的生活有多好奇)”可知，狄金森的诗能与读者产生共鸣，读者对她的生活也很好奇，由此可推断出她的诗在读者中很受欢迎。故选B项。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“The first letter is written by an 11-year-old Dickinson to her brother Austin. It’s about yellow hens and poor “Cousin Zebina fell ill the other day and bit his tongue...”. The final letter, by a seriously sick 55-year-old Dickinson, was to her cousins Louisa and Frances Norcross. (第一封信是由11岁的狄金森写给她的哥哥奥斯汀的。信中谈到了黄母鸡和可怜的“表亲齐比纳前几天病倒了，还咬到了自己的舌头……”。最后一封信则是一位病重严重的55岁狄金森写给她的表亲路易莎和弗朗西丝·诺克罗斯的)”以及“In between is a life filled with visitors, housework and recipes for doughnuts and coconut cakes. There’s mention of public figures like Florence Nightingale and Walt Whitman as well as the impact of Civil War.(在这之间是她充满访客、家务以及油炸饼和椰子蛋糕食谱的一生。信中还提到了像弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔和沃尔特·惠特曼这样的公众人物，以及内战的影响)”可知，第四段主要介绍了书信集中第一封信、最后一封信的内容，以及书信中所涉及的生活琐事、公众人物和内战的影响等，也就是书信集的内容。故选A项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“There are 1,304 letters, and, still, they’re not enough. Scholars estimate that we only have about one-tenth of the letters Dickinson ever wrote. And, on that momentous day in 1886, Lavinia entered her sister’s bedroom to find and successfully burn all the letters Dickinson herself had received from others during her lifetime. Such was the custom of the day, which makes this new volume of Dickinson’s letters feel like breaking the silence of death — something I want to believe Dickinson would have liked.(这里有1304封信件，然而，这仍然不够。学者们估计，我们所拥有的信件大约只是狄金森一生所写信件的十分之一。在1886年那个重大的日子里，拉维尼亚走进她刚去世姐姐的卧室，找到了狄金森生前从别人那里收到的所有信件，并成功将其烧毁。当时就是有这样的习俗，这使得这本新的狄金森书信集感觉像是打破了死亡带来的沉默——我愿意相信这是狄金森会喜欢的事情)”可知，狄金森写的信大部分已丢失，现在的书信集是很难得的，打破了死亡的沉默，所以作者想表达这个新的书信集特别珍贵。故选B项。 D You lean back from the dinner table, feeling like you physically couldn’t fit another bite. But then someone offers pie and you just can’t say no. Scientists have now identified the neurons (神经元) behind the “dessert stomach” phenomenon. In their study, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research found that mice kept eating sugar even when they should have felt full. Investigations of their brains showed that a group of nerve cells, known as the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, became active. These neurons release a chemical called β-endorphin, which acts like a natural reward and makes the mice feel good. As a result, they keep eating sugar despite feeling full. Interestingly, this effect only happens with sugar, not with other types of food like normal meals or fatty snacks. In a follow-up experiment with humans, researchers gave volunteers a sugar drink and found that the same thing happens in the brain as with mice. This suggests that the “dessert stomach” is a real thing for both mice and humans. Why does this happen? According to Henning Fenselau, a scientist who led the study, this makes sense from an evolutionary perspective. Sugar is rare in nature but provides quick energy. Our brains are programmed to make us want to eat sugar whenever we find it. This might have been helpful in the past because of food shortage, but today it can lead to overeating and health problems. The findings could shed light on treating obesity by providing a thorough understanding of the urge for sugar, and could even lead to potential medical solutions. Developing drugs to block the brain’s reward system for sugar might help people control their cravings (渴望). Yet, it is too soon to say that the full picture has been drawn. Other studies have found that signals from your digestive system could influence why there always seems to be room for a dessert. 32. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A. By describing an eating behaviour. B. By introducing a scientific study. C. By defining a certain term. D. By comparing different eating habits. 33. What is the main function of POMC neurons in the mice’s brains? A. Telling the bodies the mice have eaten enough. B. Managing the desire for fatty and salty foods. C. Creating a reward system to encourage dieting. D. Producing a chemical linked to positive emotions. 34. Why does the author mention that “sugar is rare in nature” in paragraph 4? A. To blame modern food production for health issues. B. To explain the evolutionary basis of sugar cravings. C. To compare natural sugar with artificial sugar. D. To warn people about eating too much sugar. 35. What is suggested in the last paragraph? A. Sugar-blocking drugs should be sold on stores right now. B. Brain activities alone could determine dessert cravings. C. More research is needed before the application of the study. D. Cravings for sugar only occurred in modern times. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文。主要以生活化的场景引入并介绍了人类和动物对甜食的 “dessert stomach” 现象的神经科学机制。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“You lean back from the dinner table, feeling like you physically couldn’t fit another bite. But then someone offers pie and you just can’t say no. Scientists have now identified the neurons (神经元) behind the “dessert stomach” phenomenon.(你从餐桌上向后靠，感觉自己再也吃不下一口了。但如果有人请你吃派，你就不能拒绝。科学家们现在已经确定了“甜点胃”现象背后的神经元)”可知，作者通过描述“饱餐后仍无法拒绝甜点”这一具体饮食行为引入主题。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“These neurons release a chemical called β-endorphin, which acts like a natural reward and makes the mice feel good.(这些神经元释放出一种叫做β-内啡肽的化学物质，它就像一种自然的奖励，让老鼠感觉良好)”可知，POMC神经元的主要功能是释放与积极情绪相关的化学物质β-内啡肽。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“According to Henning Fenselau, a scientist who led the study, this makes sense from an evolutionary perspective. Sugar is rare in nature but provides quick energy.(领导这项研究的科学家Henning Fenselau表示，从进化的角度来看，这是有道理的。糖在自然界中很罕见，但能快速提供能量)”可知，作者提到“自然界中糖分稀少”是为了从进化角度解释人类对糖的渴望。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Yet, it is too soon to say that the full picture has been drawn. Other studies have found that signals from your digestive system could influence why there always seems to be room for a dessert.(然而，现在说事情的全貌已经被描绘出来还为时过早。其他研究发现，消化系统发出的信号可能会影响你为什么总是有吃甜点的空间)”可知，研究尚未完全明确，需进一步探索。即在应用这项研究之前还需要更多的研究。故选C。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Celebrations are essential for your well-being.

They create moments of shared joy and a sense of belonging that strengthens bonds.(他们把人们聚集在一起。他们创造了分享快乐的时刻和归属感，加强了联系)”可知，下文说明了庆祝带来的额外意义。所以空处应该说明庆祝超出了其本身的意义。故F选项“庆祝不仅是纪念里程碑或节日” 与下一句构成递进关系。故选F项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Taking the time to celebrate increases your motivation to get things done. According to research, acknowledging your wins, even small ones, causes the brain to release dopamine, which creates a cycle in your brain that encourages you to repeat that same behavior.(花时间庆祝可以提高你做事的动力。根据研究，承认你的胜利，即使是小的胜利，也会让大脑释放多巴胺，这会在你的大脑中形成一个循环，鼓励你重复同样的行为)”可知，选项承接上文，说明设定小目标的作用。故C选项“确保设定小目标并庆祝它们”切题。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Celebrating your wins boosts confidence and self-esteem. Every milestone shows the challenges you’ve conquered. Reflecting on these moments reminds you of your strength and determination.(庆祝你的胜利可以增强信心和自尊。每一个里程碑都显示了你所征服的挑战。反思这些时刻会让你想起你的力量和决心)”可知，选项以激励性结论总结庆祝对自我认知的强化作用。故E选项“你会向你自己证明你有多伟大”切题。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据下文“Celebrations spark an energy of joy and optimism. When you gather people to laugh, dance, and share love, you create something bigger than the event itself. It's a reminder to let go of worries, even if only for a little while. This kind of joy is contagious (庆祝活动激发了欢乐和乐观的能量。当你把人们聚集在一起欢笑、跳舞、分享爱的时候，你就创造了比活动本身更大的东西。它提醒你放下烦恼，哪怕只是一小会儿。这种快乐是会传染的)可知，本段主要讲庆祝活动传播了积极情绪。故A选项“庆祝活动传播了积极情绪”切题，为本段的标题。故选A。 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。 I hated writing when I was growing up and it felt like journeying through a confusing jungle.

Driven## Having been driven 59 where 60. to safeguard 61. have changed 62. an 63. toughness 64. globally 65. marking 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国木拱桥的历史、保护措施及其作为非物质文化遗产的复兴过程。 【56题详解】 考查动词的被动语态。句意：木拱桥于2009年被列为非物质文化遗产，其曾广泛分布于浙江南部和福建北部，但自20世纪60年代以来，由于混凝土和钢铁的取代，木拱桥濒临灭绝。空格处是谓语动词，由时间状语in 2009可知，描述过去发生的事，用一般过去时；动词list与句子的主语Wooden arch bridges之间是动宾关系，用被动语态；主语是复数形式，be动词用were。故填were listed。 【57题详解】 考查介词。句意：2000年，成都西南民族大学的一名学生意识到了这些桥梁的价值。be/become aware of“意识到……”是固定搭配。故填of。 【58题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：出于保护这些桥梁的需要，这个人于2000年建立了一个网站，并随后举办了摄影展览。空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语，动词drive与句子的主语this individual之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词作状语；也可以理解为“被驱动”发生在“launched launched a website”和“held photo exhibitions”之前，用现在分词的完成被动式having been done结构作状语。置于句首，首字母大写。故填Driven/Having been driven。 【59题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：他还成立了文化学会，组织会议，鼓励学者对桥梁进行监测，使越来越多的人意识到保护桥梁的重要性，并参与到保护桥梁的活动中来。空格处引导定语从句，对先行词situation进行限定说明，先行词a situation相当于一个抽象的地点，在从句中作地点状语，所以用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。 【60题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：他还成立了文化学会，组织会议，鼓励学者对桥梁进行监测，使越来越多的人意识到保护桥梁的重要性，并参与到保护桥梁的活动中来。空格处作目的状语，应该用不定式形式。故填to safeguard。 【61题详解】 考查动词的时态。句意：由于这样的推广和当地政府的措施，人们已经改变了这种情况。空格处是谓语动词，根据句意和already可知，此处应该用现在完成时表示“结果或影响”；主语是people，助动词用have。故填have changed。 【62题详解】 考查冠词。句意：现在，有40多名代表性传承者，平均年龄为56岁。average age为可数名词短语，此处表泛指，average起始音为元音，填不定冠词an。故填an。 【63题详解】 考查名词。句意：2016年，传承者在不到一年的时间内修复了三座被台风损坏的国家级桥梁，展示了这项工艺的坚韧性。根据句意和空格前的showcasing the craft’s可知，空格处应该用名词toughness作宾语。故填toughness。 【64题详解】 考查副词。句意：这些努力也扩展到了全球，进行了国际交流和桥梁设计的海外推广。修饰空格前的动词extended，作状语，应该用副词形式globally。故填globally。 【65题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：2024年12月15日，中国传统的木拱桥设计和建造方法被列入《人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录》，标志着它的辉煌复兴。空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语，动词mark与上文的内容之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词marking作状语。故填marking。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 66. 为激励学生追求梦想、成就自我，你校英文报计划征集相关英文标语 (slogan) 。请你就此写一则征稿启事，内容包括： 1. 标语要求； 2. 投稿方式及截止日期。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为 80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Slogans Wanted ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Slogans Wanted To inspire students to pursue their dreams and achieve themselves, our school English newspaper plans to launch a slogan-collecting activity.

But in those days, I was far from a person enjoying the workout. My lack of athleticism finally caught up with me after I put on a lot of weight. By the time I was forty-five, I was 252 pounds. Even at six feet tall, that was too much weight for my body. I also felt like life was passing me by, but I didn't know what was next for me or how to get out of the boredom. So when I had the opportunity to enter a contest to meet Jane Fonda through a SiriusXM Town Hall event, I crossed my fingers and entered the sweepstakes (抽奖活动) . To my great surprise, I was one of the winners. I thought this was a sign that my luck was changing. I had always enjoyed Fonda's movies and was excited to have the chance to meet her. So I put on my best clothes, and brought my best friend Jenny along to meet the famous Jane Fonda. Fonda was seventy-five then and looked great in person, wearing all black and looking decades younger. Not only that, but she was so kind and friendly. She really made me feel special as we discussed a film I had recently seen her in called Peace, Love & Misunderstanding. We posed for a photo together, and I even got the opportunity to ask her a question at the event. One of the radio network's organizers promised to send me the photo of us, so I was excited when I received an email from Fonda the next day with the subject line saying that the photo was attached. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 But my excitement turned to embarrassment when I got a look at the photo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Without hesitation, I made a resolution to lose weight and get in shape. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 But my excitement turned to embarrassment when I got a look at the photo. In the photo, I was literally twice Fonda’s size even though I looked my very best that day. She was thirty years older than me, but she looked better than me. I was so overwhelmed by sadness that I shared my feelings with Jenny on the phone. But she comforted me, “Hey, it’s just a photo. Anybody would pale in comparison to a movie star. ” I knew I couldn’t be as beautiful as Fonda, of course, but the photo was the wake-up call I needed. I had to make a change. Without hesitation, I made a resolution to lose weight and get in shape. I recalled Jane Fonda’s workout program, so I found her workout tapes and followed her exercises. Like her, I started my fitness journey with gentle walks around my neighborhood, building up my endurance and speed. As I got more confident, I worked my way up to walking five kilometers, running road races and even marathons. Eventually, my efforts paid off and led me to lose 85 pounds. Thanks to my photo with Jane Fonda, I was on the path to a healthier and fitter me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者与简・方达的相遇为线索展开，讲述了作者原本不热爱运动且体重超标，在一次抽奖活动中幸运获得与简・方达见面的机会，见面后收到照片，因照片中自己与简・方达的体型对比而决定改变，开始减肥塑形的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “但是当我看到照片时，我的兴奋变成了尴尬。” 可知，第一段可描写作者看到照片后因自己与简・方达体型差异巨大而感到难过，在朋友安慰后，决心做出改变。 ②由第二段首句内容 “我毫不犹豫地决定减肥并塑形。” 可知，第二段可描写作者具体的减肥行动，包括借鉴简・方达的锻炼方式，最终取得减肥成功。 2. 续写线索：看到照片 —— 体型对比尴尬 —— 朋友安慰 —— 决定改变 —— 采取行动 —— 减肥成功 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①分享感受：share one’s feelings/express one’s feelings ②安慰：comfort/console ③回忆：recall/evoke 情绪类 ①难过：sadness/sorrow ②自信的：be confident/ be self-assured 【点睛】[高分句型1] In the photo, I was literally twice Fonda’s size even though I looked my very best that day.(运用了even though 引导的让步状语从句) [高分句型2] As I got more confident, I worked my way up to walking five kilometers, running road races and even marathons.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句以及现在分词短语做状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 南宁市2025届普通高中毕业班第二次适应性测试 英 语 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

B Sea turtles can survive being struck by a boat — but as they recover, their shells often change shape, bulging (鼓起) from air building up within their bodies, which makes the animals unstable when they swim, resulting in “bubble butt syndrome (泡沫屁股综合征)” , which prevents turtles swimming or diving normally. Typically, turtles with this condition cannot be released back into the ocean. But a “bubble butt” male turtle named Charlotte is now swimming more smoothly at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, thanks to a harness (挽具) built by a 3D printer. It took several years of work, but in a recent fitting, the harness was moved quickly into place. “The staff was super pumped, ” says Alex Pestana, a sales engineer at 3D printing company Formlabs. “We help Charlotte out!” Charlotte passed from the Georgia Sea Turtle Center to the Mystic Aquarium. A male green sea turtle was given the name Bubble Butt at The Turtle Hospital in the Florida Keys shortly after he arrived there in 1989. To help him, they attached 2.5 pounds of lead to his shell. This helped, but it isn’t a permanent solution as the weights move as the animals grow. Bubble Butt died in 2022. But by then, efforts were under way to use 3D printing to help turtles like him. With harnesses like Charlotte’s, weights can be added gradually to assist the animals to adjust. The Turtle Hospital currently has around 15 turtles with bubble butt syndrome, according to Bette Zirkelbach, the hospital’s manager. “People who drive boats should obey speed restrictions, many of which apply in shallower areas,” Zirkelbach says. “In shallow water, animals like sea turtles and dolphins have nowhere to escape from boats — they can’t dive down.” 24. What is the main purpose of the 3D-printed harness for sea turtles like Charlotte? A. To repair their damaged shells. B. To assist them in swimming. C. To help them reduce their weight. D. To prevent air entering their bodies. 25. What does the underlined word “pumped” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Curious. B. Relaxed. C. Grateful. D. Excited. 26. What should we do according to Bette Zirkelbach? A. Avoid boat speeding. B. Build advanced boats. C. Protect bubble butt turtles. D. Change turtles’ living places. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Aquarium Protects Sea Turtles’ Health. B. 3D Printing Enhances Sea Turtles’ Recovery. C. Sea Turtles Beat Bubble Butt with 3D Printing. D. Bubble Butt Affects Sea Turtles’ Swimming. C Among the great moments in literary history I wish I could have witnessed is that day, sometime after May 15, 1886, when Lavinia entered the bedroom of her newly deceased (去世) older sister and began opening drawers. Out sprang poems, almost 1,800 of them. Before that, Emily Dickinson had merely published a handful of poems during her lifetime. Jumping to the present, a new monumental volume of Dickinson’s letters — the first in over 60 years — gives us an engaged Emily Dickinson: a woman in conversation with the world, through chats, remarks about books, politics and the signal events of her age. Whatever Dickinson hoped for her poems, she could never have anticipated how they would resonate (共鸣) with readers or how curious those readers would be about her life. This new collection of The Letters of Emily Dickinson is edited by two Dickinson scholars, Cristanne Miller and Domhnall Mitchell, who’ve also added some 300 previously uncollected letters to this volume for a grand total of 1,304 letters. The result is that The Letters of Emily Dickinson reads like the closest thing we’ll probably ever have to reveal the secrets about the poet. The first letter is written by an 11-year-old Dickinson to her brother Austin. It’s about yellow hens and poor “Cousin Zebina fell ill the other day and bit his tongue...”. The final letter, by a seriously sick 55-year-old Dickinson, was to her cousins Louisa and Frances Norcross. In between is a life filled with visitors, housework and recipes for doughnuts and coconut cakes. There’s mention of public figures like Florence Nightingale and Walt Whitman as well as the impact of Civil War. There are 1,304 letters, and, still, they’re not enough. Scholars estimate that we only have about one-tenth of the letters Dickinson ever wrote. And, on that momentous day in 1886, Lavinia entered her sister’s bedroom to find and successfully burn all the letters Dickinson herself had received from others during her lifetime. Such was the custom of the day, which makes this new volume of Dickinson’s letters feel like breaking the silence of death — something I want to believe Dickinson would have liked. 28. Which word best describes the discovery of the poems in Dickinson’s bedroom? A. Satisfying. B. Inspiring. C. Astonishing. D. Interesting. 29. What can be inferred about Dickinson’s poems? A. They won her dominance in politics. B. They are very popular among readers. C. They fail to resonate with modern poets. D. They led to historical events at that time. 30. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about The Letters of Emily Dickinson? A. The content of it. B. The impact of it. C. The comment on it. D. The background of it. 31. What does the author intend to express in the last paragraph? A. Dickinson was proud of her private letters. B. The new collection is particularly precious. C. Losing Dickinson’s letters was unexpected. D. The custom was to blame for Dickinson’s death. D You lean back from the dinner table, feeling like you physically couldn’t fit another bite. But then someone offers pie and you just can’t say no. Scientists have now identified the neurons (神经元) behind the “dessert stomach” phenomenon. In their study, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research found that mice kept eating sugar even when they should have felt full. Investigations of their brains showed that a group of nerve cells, known as the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, became active. These neurons release a chemical called β-endorphin, which acts like a natural reward and makes the mice feel good. As a result, they keep eating sugar despite feeling full. Interestingly, this effect only happens with sugar, not with other types of food like normal meals or fatty snacks. In a follow-up experiment with humans, researchers gave volunteers a sugar drink and found that the same thing happens in the brain as with mice. This suggests that the “dessert stomach” is a real thing for both mice and humans. Why does this happen? According to Henning Fenselau, a scientist who led the study, this makes sense from an evolutionary perspective. Sugar is rare in nature but provides quick energy. Our brains are programmed to make us want to eat sugar whenever we find it. This might have been helpful in the past because of food shortage, but today it can lead to overeating and health problems. The findings could shed light on treating obesity by providing a thorough understanding of the urge for sugar, and could even lead to potential medical solutions. Developing drugs to block the brain’s reward system for sugar might help people control their cravings (渴望). Yet, it is too soon to say that the full picture has been drawn. Other studies have found that signals from your digestive system could influence why there always seems to be room for a dessert. 32. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A. By describing an eating behaviour. B. By introducing a scientific study. C. By defining a certain term. D. By comparing different eating habits. 33. What is the main function of POMC neurons in the mice’s brains? A. Telling the bodies the mice have eaten enough. B. Managing the desire for fatty and salty foods. C. Creating a reward system to encourage dieting. D. Producing a chemical linked to positive emotions. 34. Why does the author mention that “sugar is rare in nature” in paragraph 4? A. To blame modern food production for health issues. B. To explain the evolutionary basis of sugar cravings. C. To compare natural sugar with artificial sugar. D. To warn people about eating too much sugar. 35 What is suggested in the last paragraph? A. Sugar-blocking drugs should be sold on stores right now. B. Brain activities alone could determine dessert cravings. C. More research is needed before the application of the study. D. Cravings for sugar only occurred in modern times. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Celebrations are essential for your well-being.

But in those days, I was far from a person enjoying the workout. My lack of athleticism finally caught up with me after I put on a lot of weight. By the time I was forty-five, I was 252 pounds. Even at six feet tall, that was too much weight for my body. I also felt like life was passing me by, but I didn't know what was next for me or how to get out of the boredom. So when I had the opportunity to enter a contest to meet Jane Fonda through a SiriusXM Town Hall event, I crossed my fingers and entered the sweepstakes (抽奖活动) . To my great surprise, I was one of the winners. I thought this was a sign that my luck was changing. I had always enjoyed Fonda's movies and was excited to have the chance to meet her. So I put on my best clothes, and brought my best friend Jenny along to meet the famous Jane Fonda. Fonda was seventy-five then and looked great in person, wearing all black and looking decades younger. Not only that, but she was so kind and friendly. She really made me feel special as we discussed a film I had recently seen her in called Peace, Love & Misunderstanding. We posed for a photo together, and I even got the opportunity to ask her a question at the event. One of the radio network's organizers promised to send me the photo of us, so I was excited when I received an email from Fonda the next day with the subject line saying that the photo was attached. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 But my excitement turned to embarrassment when I got a look at the photo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Without hesitation, I made a resolution to lose weight and get in shape. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$这是南宁市2025届普通高中毕业班第二次适应性测试英语课听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意，做题时先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。现在是听力试音时间。Hello, international and club, can I help you?
