Madison Checketts, during her leisurely walks along her favourite beach in California, US, was met with a frustrating sight. The once-beautiful shoreline was now packed with wasted plastic water bottles, a cruel reminder of the global plastic pollution crisis. For Madison, who held this beach dear to her heart, seeing it ruined by these non-biodegradable items was deeply upset. The astonishing statistic that Americans cast away 60 million plastic bottles daily, with many of them ultimately ending up in landfills or the vast ocean, was a call to action she couldn’t ignore. Driven by a strong sense-of responsibility, Madison headed home and immediately set to work on seeking an eco-friendly solution. She named her creative water bottle the Eco-Hero. The magic behind this unique water bottle lies in its material calcium lactate (乳酸钙), a chemical compound. When processed, it undergoes a fascinating transformation from a soft material into a solid, edible shell. This not only makes the Eco-Hero an environmentally friendly option, as it is biodegradable and can break down naturally over time, but also offers a novel and enjoyable experience. The bottle has a delicate sweet flavour, which even gives the water inside a subtle sweet taste. Madison’s remarkable invention has rightfully earned her a spot in the final of a renowned Us science competition for young people. Beyond the prizes, she has a far-reaching aspiration. She hopes that her Eco-Hero will serve as a motivation, inspiring countless other young student to take steps, no matter how small, towards making the world a more sustainable and beautiful place. 24. What made Madison Checketts decide to create the Eco-Hero? A. The drive to protect her favourite beach. B. The high prize of the science competition. C. The dream of becoming a famous inventor. D. The cruel statistics of the global plastic pollution. 25. What can we infer from the passage about the Eco-Hero? A. It will replace traditional plastic bottles soon. B. It is good for the environment and interesting. C. It is more expensive than ordinary plastic bottles. D. It has a strong sweet flavor that people may dislike 26. What can we know about Madison’s participation in the science competition? A. She’ll profit a lot from the competition. B. Her school strongly supported her invention. C. All finalists focus on plastic-related solutions. D. The competition values environmental inventions. 27. Which of the following could best describe Madison Checketts? A. Adaptable and cautious. B. Ambitious and competitive. C. Imaginative and responsible. D. Detail-oriented and persistent. C We’ve all been in a position where our phone runs out of battery, but we don’t have anywhere to charge it. Well, what if the clothing you were wearing could help you out? It’s an option that isn’t as strange as you might think. Now the latest fashion breakthrough is taking “activewear” in an entirely new direction: researchers at Nottingham Trent University have developed a new fabric that can keep small devices juiced. The prototype (样品) includes 1,200 tiny solar panels, each measuring just 5 by 1.5 millimeters. It can generate 400 milliwatts of electrical energy, enough to charge electronic devices. “Until now very few people have considered their clothing products could be used for charging electronic devices,” explains Theodore Hughes-Riley, an associate professor of Electronic Textiles. “The material which we have developed appears and behaves the same as any ordinary fabric, as it can be washed in a machine. Besides, because the tiny solar cells are comprised of silicon (硅), wearers aren’t able to even notice a discrepancy in the fabric’s composition when it is compared to standard clothing.” Potential products include items like outerwear, backpacks and other carrying bags using the material, all of which could allow wearers to keep their devices charged during the day. “Electronic fabrics really have the potential to change people’s relationship with technology, as this prototype has shown how we could do away with charging many devices on the wall,” adds Theodore. Solar power inventions are key to transitioning (转变) human society from fossil fuel technologies, and are coming into a variety of fields. The European Space Agency, for example, plans to experiment with solar panel systems orbiting above Earth. Since there are no real “days” or “nights” in space, potential solar power generation could be as much as 8 or 9 times greater than what’s currently achievable here on Earth’s surface. As powerful as that may one day be for us, it’s encouraging to know even changes like the composition of our clothing can help facilitate the necessary renewable energy shift for our species. 28. Why is the new fabric special? A. It can change color in the sun. B. It can adjust body temperature. C. It can produce electricity from sunlight. D. It is much tougher than standard clothing. 29. What does the underlined word “discrepancy” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Distinction. B. Mismatch. C. Improvement. D. Similarity. 30. How does the invention impact our relationship with technology according to Theodore? A. By making electronic devices much cheaper. B. By reducing the demand for fixed charging equipment. C. By making us more aware of our energy consumption. D. By gradually increasing our dependence on electronic devices. 31. What is the best title for the passage? A. Solar-Powered Fabric: Charging Devices on the Go. B. Future Fabric Trends: Beyond Traditional Textiles. C. An Inventive Silicon: Recycling for Energy Efficiency. D. Traditional Fabric Technology: Challenges in Development. D Students and Technology in the Classroom I love my blackberry (黑莓手机) — it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others. On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule-no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy. Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students. The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration (专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion. I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom. I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a rally good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up. 32. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______. A. the course material B. others’ misuse of technology C. discussion topics D. the author’s class rules 33. The underlined word “engage” in para.4 probably means ______. A. explore B. accept C. change D. refuse 34. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______. A. keep students from doing independent thinking B. encourage students to have deep conversations C. help students to better understand difficult themes D. affect students’ concentration on the teacher’s ideas 35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ______. A. is quite stubborn in teaching B. will give up teaching history C. will change his teaching plan soon D. values technology-free dialogues in his class 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____36____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____37____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____38____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____39____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. ____40____ Read a book knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph. A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types. B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months. E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. F. Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom. G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I once worked in the remote but beautiful countryside.

When Jack was interviewed for a well-known music school, his heart sank as he received a rejection letter, stating that his skills were not up to the school’s high standards, a cruel blow that left him feeling uncertain about his future. Disappointed but not discouraged, Jack decided to turn his setback into a stepping stone. Every day after school, he would rush to a small, dimly lit room in his basement, where an old piano stood as a silent witness to his unwavering determination. The room was humble, with barely enough space for him and the piano, but it was there that he poured his heart and soul into his craft. Hours turned into days, and days into months, with Jack’s fingers bleeding from the constant practice. Despite the pain and exhaustion, he continued to press on, driven by his dream and the belief that one day he would prove them all wrong. Seeking guidance, Jack turned to a retired pianist in the neighborhood who had once been a renowned performer. The retired pianist, impressed by Jack’s dedication and passion, took him under his wing and provided him with invaluable insights and comments. He taught Jack to refine his skills and technique, helping him to understand the art of performing. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数为120左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 His friends often teased him, calling his efforts useless and reminding him of the school’s rejection.

It is the first solar satellite globally. 【答案】B 【原文】 NANJING－China's first solar satellite, ASO-S, is scheduled to launch in the first half of 2022, marking the country's first-ever mission to observe the sun. The satellite will operate in an orbit above Earth to maintain a view of the sun 24 hours a day. It is expected to be in orbit for at least 4 years, according to Gan Weiqun, a researcher from the project. The sun is the only fixed star that can be studied in detail by humans. The vast majority of its radiation is blocked by Earth's atmosphere. Only by sending satellites into space can a complete picture of the sun be presented for further studies. The satellite will also realize its potential in space weather forecasting. Sun activities can be detected at least 40 hours ahead of their arrival by the satellite. This can help with early warnings of damage to Earth's environment. Since the 1960s, more than 70 satellites related to solar observation have been launched globally. The ASO-S is expected to fill China's gap in the field, according to Gan. 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 Are you interested in how marine(海洋的) ecosystems work?

Madison Checketts, during her leisurely walks along her favourite beach in California, US, was met with a frustrating sight. The once-beautiful shoreline was now packed with wasted plastic water bottles, a cruel reminder of the global plastic pollution crisis. For Madison, who held this beach dear to her heart, seeing it ruined by these non-biodegradable items was deeply upset. The astonishing statistic that Americans cast away 60 million plastic bottles daily, with many of them ultimately ending up in landfills or the vast ocean, was a call to action she couldn’t ignore. Driven by a strong sense-of responsibility, Madison headed home and immediately set to work on seeking an eco-friendly solution. She named her creative water bottle the Eco-Hero. The magic behind this unique water bottle lies in its material calcium lactate (乳酸钙), a chemical compound. When processed, it undergoes a fascinating transformation from a soft material into a solid, edible shell. This not only makes the Eco-Hero an environmentally friendly option, as it is biodegradable and can break down naturally over time, but also offers a novel and enjoyable experience. The bottle has a delicate sweet flavour, which even gives the water inside a subtle sweet taste. Madison’s remarkable invention has rightfully earned her a spot in the final of a renowned Us science competition for young people. Beyond the prizes, she has a far-reaching aspiration. She hopes that her Eco-Hero will serve as a motivation, inspiring countless other young student to take steps, no matter how small, towards making the world a more sustainable and beautiful place. 24. What made Madison Checketts decide to create the Eco-Hero? A. The drive to protect her favourite beach. B. The high prize of the science competition. C. The dream of becoming a famous inventor. D. The cruel statistics of the global plastic pollution. 25. What can we infer from the passage about the Eco-Hero? A. It will replace traditional plastic bottles soon. B. It is good for the environment and interesting. C. It is more expensive than ordinary plastic bottles. D. It has a strong sweet flavor that people may dislike 26. What can we know about Madison’s participation in the science competition? A. She’ll profit a lot from the competition. B. Her school strongly supported her invention. C. All finalists focus on plastic-related solutions. D. The competition values environmental inventions. 27. Which of the following could best describe Madison Checketts? A. Adaptable and cautious. B. Ambitious and competitive. C. Imaginative and responsible. D. Detail-oriented and persistent. 【参考答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. C 【语篇解读】 本文讲述了美国学生Madison Checketts在目睹海滩塑料污染后，受统计数据触动，研发出可生物降解的乳酸钙材质水瓶Eco-Hero的故事。文章强调其发明的环保特性与社会意义，并提及她通过科学竞赛传递可持续发展理念。 【详情解析】 24. 细节理解题。 第三段明确指出，“美国人每天丢弃6000万个塑料瓶”这一统计数据是促使Madison行动的直接原因（“a call to action she couldn’t ignore”）。虽然第二段提到她对海滩的情感，但问题聚焦于“决定创造Eco-Hero的触发因素”，统计数据的影响更直接。故选D。 25. 推理判断题。 第四段描述Eco-Hero的材质可生物降解（“environmentally friendly”），且具有“微妙甜味”的独特体验（“novel and enjoyable experience”），对应选项B“环保且有趣”。其他选项缺乏依据：A项“取代传统瓶”未提及，C项“更贵”无数据支持，D项“味道过甜”与原文“delicate sweet”矛盾。故选B。 26. 推理判断题。 末段提到Madison的发明进入“著名科学竞赛决赛”，结合其环保主题，可推断该竞赛重视环境类发明。其他选项：A项“获利”原文未提，B项“学校支持”无依据，C项“所有决赛选手关注塑料问题”过度推测。故选D。 27. 人物形象题。 Madison通过创新材料（乳酸钙）解决污染问题，体现“想象力”（imaginative）；第三段“强烈责任感驱动”（“driven by a strong sense of responsibility”）体现“责任感”（responsible）。选项C准确概括其特质。其他选项：A“适应性”、B“竞争性”、D“注重细节”均非文章重点。故选C。 C We’ve all been in a position where our phone runs out of battery, but we don’t have anywhere to charge it. Well, what if the clothing you were wearing could help you out? It’s an option that isn’t as strange as you might think. Now the latest fashion breakthrough is taking “activewear” in an entirely new direction: researchers at Nottingham Trent University have developed a new fabric that can keep small devices juiced. The prototype (样品) includes 1,200 tiny solar panels, each measuring just 5 by 1.5 millimeters. It can generate 400 milliwatts of electrical energy, enough to charge electronic devices. “Until now very few people have considered their clothing products could be used for charging electronic devices,” explains Theodore Hughes-Riley, an associate professor of Electronic Textiles. “The material which we have developed appears and behaves the same as any ordinary fabric, as it can be washed in a machine. Besides, because the tiny solar cells are comprised of silicon (硅), wearers aren’t able to even notice a discrepancy in the fabric’s composition when it is compared to standard clothing.” Potential products include items like outerwear, backpacks and other carrying bags using the material, all of which could allow wearers to keep their devices charged during the day. “Electronic fabrics really have the potential to change people’s relationship with technology, as this prototype has shown how we could do away with charging many devices on the wall,” adds Theodore. Solar power inventions are key to transitioning (转变) human society from fossil fuel technologies, and are coming into a variety of fields. The European Space Agency, for example, plans to experiment with solar panel systems orbiting above Earth. Since there are no real “days” or “nights” in space, potential solar power generation could be as much as 8 or 9 times greater than what’s currently achievable here on Earth’s surface. As powerful as that may one day be for us, it’s encouraging to know even changes like the composition of our clothing can help facilitate the necessary renewable energy shift for our species. 28. Why is the new fabric special? A. It can change color in the sun. B. It can adjust body temperature. C. It can produce electricity from sunlight. D. It is much tougher than standard clothing. 29. What does the underlined word “discrepancy” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Distinction. B. Mismatch. C. Improvement. D. Similarity. 30. How does the invention impact our relationship with technology according to Theodore? A. By making electronic devices much cheaper. B. By reducing the demand for fixed charging equipment. C. By making us more aware of our energy consumption. D. By gradually increasing our dependence on electronic devices. 31. What is the best title for the passage? A. Solar-Powered Fabric: Charging Devices on the Go. B. Future Fabric Trends: Beyond Traditional Textiles. C. An Inventive Silicon: Recycling for Energy Efficiency. D. Traditional Fabric Technology: Challenges in Development. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31.

I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others. On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule-no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy. Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students. The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration (专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion. I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom. I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a rally good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up. 32. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______. A. the course material B. others’ misuse of technology C. discussion topics D. the author’s class rules 33. The underlined word “engage” in para.4 probably means ______. A. explore B. accept C. change D. refuse 34. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______. A. keep students from doing independent thinking B. encourage students to have deep conversations C. help students to better understand difficult themes D. affect students’ concentration on the teacher’s ideas 35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ______. A. is quite stubborn in teaching B. will give up teaching history C. will change his teaching plan soon D. values technology-free dialogues in his class 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. A 15. D 【语篇解读】 这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章论述的主题是“students and technology”，文章以教师的口吻谈到不允许学生在课堂上玩ipad、手机等通讯工具是因为technology会影响深入交流和学生独立思考的能力。 【详情解析】 32.细节理解题。根据第二段的“Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule-no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy. (因为我想让学生们在课堂上深入地学习材料，互相交流思想，所以我有一个规定——不要使用笔记本电脑、ipad、手机等。当学生们在上课前被告知我的规定时，他们中的一些人很不高兴)”可知，在历史课上学生们不开心是因为作者的班规——不能使用电子产品。故选D。 33.词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations(我认为很少有地方可以让我们进行深入的对话)”和and可知，“engage complex ideas”和上文“have deep conversations”并列，指探索复杂的想法。由此可知，engage意为“探索”，与explore同义。故选A。 34.细节理解题。根据第四段的“Interruptions by technology often break concentration (专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion. (技术的干扰往往会分散注意力，使想法过于依赖外部信息。我希望学生们能深入挖掘自己的灵感和想法。我希望他们以不同的方式互相思考，并在课程材料和课堂讨论之间建立联系。)”可知，作者认为在课堂上使用科技产品有碍于学生的独立思考。故选A。 35.推理判断题。根据最后一段的“A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up. (几个小时的不受科技产品打扰的自由对话太棒了，不能放弃)”推知，作者非常重视课堂上没有科技产品的对话。故选D。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____36____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____37____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____38____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____39____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. ____40____ Read a book knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph. A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types. B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months. E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. F. Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom. G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 【参考答案】36. D 37. G 38. C 39. E 40. B 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，针对火车旅行提出了五条实用建议。文章通过分点论述的方式，从提前预订、借助旅行社、携带毛毯、准时抵达和享受旅程等方面，帮助读者优化火车出行体验。 【详情解析】 36. D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months. 解析：空格前强调长途列车卧铺易售罄，空格后建议至少提前 90 天预订。选项 D 通过 “busy summer months” 与后文 “no matter when you travel” 形成对比，说明旺季更需提前预订，逻辑连贯。故选D。 37.G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 解析：前文提到旅行社能提供折扣票，后文指出无需频繁走动用餐。选项 G 的 “sleeping car next to diner” 直接解释了旅行社如何解决用餐不便问题，符合上下文衔接。故选G。 38.C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. 解析：空格前说明火车不提供免费毯子，空格后强调空调导致车厢寒冷。选项 C 的 “temperature hard to control” 解释了为何需要自备毯子，与夏季空调问题形成因果关系。 39.E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. 解析：前文提到火车班次少，错过即 “灾难”，后文强调时刻表是发车时间。选项 E 通过 “wait over 24 hours” 具体说明错过班次的后果，与 “disaster” 形成呼应。故选E。 40.B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. 解析：空格后列举了看窗外等活动，选项 B 的 “views from both sides” 为后文 “watch the world unfold” 提供了前提条件，且 “calculate speed” 也需通过窗外里程碑实现，逻辑严密。故选B。 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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I once worked in the remote but beautiful countryside.

A 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己小时候在农村稻田里干农活的经历，在艰苦的劳动中作者学会了不害怕困难以及 “一分耕耘，一分收获” 的道理，这段经历对作者后来的学术研究也产生了积极影响，让作者明白了脚踏实地、永不放弃就会有回报。 【详情解析】 41. 根据语境，所有的农活在作者的经历中，应该是能 “培养” 一个人形成斯巴达精神。A 项 “train”（培养，训练）符合语境，农活能培养人的精神品质；B 项 “warn”（警告）、C 项 “attract”（吸引）、D 项 “remind”（提醒）均不符合此处表达的 “农活对人精神培养” 的意思，所以选 A。 42. 从后文描述在稻田里干活的内容可知，从八岁起，作者就得和父母及两个哥哥一起贡献自己的 “劳动” 份额。D 项 “labour”（劳动）符合语境，在农田干活就是劳动；A 项 “wealth”（财富）、B 项 “luck”（运气）、C 项 “wisdom”（智慧）均不符合在农田干活的情境，所以选 D。 43. 描述在最热的夏天，空气应该是 “几乎不” 流动。C 项 “hardly”（几乎不）符合炎热夏天空气状态的描述；A 项 “gently”（温柔地，轻轻地）、B 项 “loudly”（大声地）、D 项 “usually”（通常）都不能准确描述夏天炎热时空气几乎静止不流动的状态，所以选 C。 44. 水里的小昆虫应该是 “叮咬” 进作者的皮肤。C 项 “bit”（bite 的过去式，叮咬）符合语境，小昆虫在水里会叮咬人；A 项 “climbed”（攀爬）、B 项 “cut”（切割）、D 项 “fell”（fall 的过去式，落下）都不符合小昆虫对人皮肤的动作，所以选 C。 45. 根据前文描述在太阳下干活，太阳灼烧着作者的背，结合选项，应该是 “拱起的” 背。B 项 “arched”（拱形的，拱起的）符合在稻田里跪着干活时背的姿态；A 项 “broad”（宽阔的）、C 项 “strong”（强壮的）、D 项 “straightened”（挺直的）均不太符合在那种干活情境下背的状态，所以选 B。 46. 如果一滴汗流进眼睛里，就会 “流出” 眼泪。C 项 “produce”（产生，引起）这里可理解为导致流出眼泪，符合逻辑；A 项 “hold”（持有，握住）、B 项 “drop”（落下）、D 项 “replace”（代替）都不符合汗流进眼睛导致流泪的表达，所以选 C。 47. 作者看到父母和哥哥都能坚持，自己也告诉自己要 “快点” 坚持下去。D 项 “quick”（快的，迅速的，这里可理解为快点振作坚持）符合语境；A 项 “patient”（有耐心的）、B 项 “proud”（骄傲的）、C 项 “quiet”（安静的）均不符合作者此时鼓励自己继续干活的心态，所以选 D。 48. 作者振作起来拖着自己向前，结合前文描述的辛苦状态，应该是 “慢慢地” 振作起来。B 项 “Slowly”（慢慢地）符合语境；A 项 “Slightly”（稍微地）、C 项 “Safely”（安全地）、D 项 “Sadly”（悲伤地）都不符合作者在辛苦干活时振作起来的状态描述，所以选 B。 49. 根据 “you reap (收获) what you” 可知，这里是 “一分耕耘，一分收获” 的表达，即 “你播种什么就收获什么”。D 项 “sow”（播种）符合语境；A 项 “pick”（采摘）、B 项 “find”（找到）、C 项 “wish”（希望）均不符合该俗语的表达，所以选 D。 50. 根据 “Judge a man not by his face, but by his”，结合前文作者在农田干活的经历，应该是 “不要以貌取人，而要以他的‘成果，功绩’来评判”。C 项 “deeds”（行为，事迹，功绩）符合语境；A 项 “books”（书）、B 项 “fields”（田地，领域）、D 项 “clothes”（衣服）均不符合评判一个人的标准的表达，所以选 C。 51. 根据 “as long as you are willing to work on it” 可知，只要你愿意在土地上劳作，土地就是 “宜居的，能让人生活的”。C 项 “livable”（宜居的，适于居住的，这里可理解为能让人依靠它生活）符合语境；A 项 “affordable”（负担得起的）、B 项 “acceptable”（可接受的）、D 项 “dependable”（可靠的）均不太符合土地与劳作关系的表达，所以选 C。 52. 根据 “the rice plants moved like” 以及 “in the sea” 可知，风吹时水稻像海里的 “波浪” 一样移动。A 项 “waves”（波浪）符合水稻在风中移动的样子；B 项 “weeds”（杂草）、C 项 “fishes”（鱼）、D 项 “boats”（船）都不符合水稻在风中移动的形象描述，所以选 A。 53. 当看到美丽的水稻景象时，一种深深的满足感 “涌上” 作者心头。B 项 “welled up”（涌出，流露）符合语境；A 项 “broke up”（打碎，解散）、C 项 “cooled off”（变凉，冷静下来）、D 项 “held off”（拖延，不接近）均不符合满足感出现的表达，所以选 B。 54. 根据 “your feet firmly on the ground” 可知，是要 “把” 你的脚稳稳地踩在地上，即脚踏实地。D 项 “plant”（种植，使固定，这里可理解为使脚固定在地上）符合语境；A 项 “drag”（拖，拉）、B 项 “kick”（踢）、C 项 “lift”（举起，抬起）均不符合 “脚踏实地” 的表达，所以选 D。 55. 根据 “never give up and you will be” 以及前文作者从农活中获得的感悟可知，永不放弃就会 “得到回报”。A 项 “rewarded”（回报，奖赏）符合语境；B 项 “educated”（教育）、C 项 “comforted”（安慰）、D 项 “promoted”（提升，促进）均不符合永不放弃后的结果表达，所以选 A。 第二节：(10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。 Natural Therapy (疗法) Many books and articles have been published about how to boost happiness. One proved way is by spending more time in nature. In a study 56 (publish) in Science Advances, there is evidence 57 contacting with nature is associated with many benefits including increases in happiness, a sense of well-being, positive social 58 (interaction), and a feeling of meaningfulness in life. Nature therapy, also called ecotherapy(生态疗法), is the practice of being in nature to boost growth and healing, especially menial health. You can do nature therapy anywhere, 59 you live in rural, suburban, or urban areas. As an example, in the foothills of the Snowdonia National Park in the UK outdoor art-related activities 60 (hold) to help those who suffer from depression, anxiety and stress over the past few years. Art psychotherapist Pamela Stanley told the BBC that there was a “growing body of evidence” to support ecotherapy. It’s true that for most of us 61 (expose) to the natural world definitely lifts our spirits. But ecotherapy can also include activities or therapies 62 you are formally guided by therapists and trained leaders. It’s 63 Dr Rachel Bragg from the University of Essex calls “psychological restoration”. “Ecotherapy is one tool that you have to use 64 (strengthen) and deepen the the work that you’re doing with your clients or your patients.”     Of course, eco-therapy won’t cure everything, 65 it is still on option for therapists to use. And as we become more aware of the causes and effects of mental health, it’s good to know that help may lie outside our towns and cities, and that nature can give us a helping hand. 【参考答案】56. published 57. that 58. interactions 59. whether 60. have been held 61. being exposed 62. where 63. what 64. to strengthen 65. but 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了自然疗法（生态疗法）。通过研究表明接触自然有诸多益处，自然疗法可以在任何地方进行，英国斯诺登尼亚国家公园山麓的相关活动也证明了生态疗法的有效性，同时说明了生态疗法的具体形式和作用，尽管它不能治愈一切，但仍是治疗师的一种选择，自然能对心理健康起到帮助作用。 【详情解析】 56. 考查过去分词。（下同）分析句子结构，“______ (publish) in Science Advances” 作后置定语修饰 “a study”。因为 “study（研究）” 和 “publish（发表）” 之间是被动关系，即研究是被发表的，所以要用过去分词形式 published 来表示被动和完成的状态。故此处填 published。 57. “there is evidence ______ contacting with nature is associated with many benefits...” 中，“contacting with nature is associated with many benefits...” 是对 “evidence（证据）” 的具体解释说明，是一个同位语从句。在这个同位语从句中，不缺少任何成分，意思也完整，所以要用 that 来引导同位语从句，只起连接作用，不充当任何成分。因此填 that。 58. “interaction” 是可数名词，根据前面的 “positive social（积极的社交）” 以及后面与之并列的 “increases in happiness, a sense of well-being（幸福感的增加、一种幸福感）” 等可知，这里强调的是多种积极的社交互动，所以要用复数形式 interactions。故答案为 interactions。 59. 根据 “You can do nature therapy anywhere, ______ you live in rural, suburban, or urban areas.” 可知，此句表达的是 “无论你住在农村、郊区还是城市地区，你都可以在任何地方进行自然疗法”。“whether...or...” 是固定搭配，表示 “无论…… 还是……”，符合句子的逻辑和语境。所以此处应填 whether。 60. 根据 “over the past few years（在过去的几年里）” 可知，句子的时态应该用现在完成时。又因为 “outdoor art-related activities（户外与艺术相关的活动）” 和 “hold（举办）” 之间是被动关系，即活动是被举办的，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态，其结构为 “have/has been + 过去分词”。由于主语 “activities” 是复数，所以助动词用 have，“hold” 的过去分词是 held。因此，这里应填 have been held。 61. 分析句子结构，“for most of us ______ (expose) to the natural world definitely lifts our spirits.” 中，“______ (expose) to the natural world” 是句子的主语部分。“expose” 和 “us” 之间是被动关系，即 “我们被暴露在自然世界中”，且此处是作主语，所以要用动名词的被动形式 “being + 过去分词”，即 being exposed。故填 being exposed。 62. “But ecotherapy can also include activities or therapies ______ you are formally guided by therapists and trained leaders.” 中，“activities or therapies（活动或疗法）” 是先行词，在后面的定语从句 “you are formally guided by therapists and trained leaders” 中，先行词在从句中作地点状语，意思是 “在这些活动或疗法中，你会受到治疗师和训练有素的领导者的正式指导”。所以要用关系副词 where 来引导定语从句。因此填 where。 63. “It’s ______ Dr Rachel Bragg from the University of Essex calls ‘psychological restoration’.” 中，“______ Dr Rachel Bragg from the University of Essex calls ‘psychological restoration’” 是表语从句。在这个表语从句中，“calls” 是谓语动词，“______” 要作 “calls” 的宾语，同时引导表语从句，所以要用 what 来引导，what 在从句中充当宾语成分，意思是 “瑞秋・布拉格博士所称的‘心理恢复’”。故此处填 what。 64. 根据 “Ecotherapy is one tool that you have to use ______ (strengthen) and deepen the work that you’re doing with your clients or your patients.” 可知，“使用生态疗法” 的目的是 “加强和深化你与客户或病人正在做的工作”，这里要用动词不定式作目的状语，其结构为 “to + 动词原形”。所以 “strengthen（加强）” 要用不定式形式 to strengthen。故填 to strengthen。 65. 根据 “Of course, eco-therapy won’t cure everything, ______ it is still an option for therapists to use.” 可知，前半句说 “当然，生态疗法不能治愈所有问题”，后半句说 “它仍然是治疗师可以使用的一种选择”，前后句之间存在转折关系。所以要用表示转折的连词 but 来连接。因此填 but。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分 15 分) 46. 假设你和你的舍友李明一起去饮水机接开水，李明的手不小心被开水烫伤。于是你对他实施了必要的急救。请你结合此事，用英语写一篇短文，向学校英文报Teens投稿，主要内容包括： 1.描述事故发生的经过; 2.你是如何实施急救的; 3.简要谈谈你对掌握一定急救知识的重要性的认识。 参考词汇：water dispenser饮水机; vacuum cup保温杯 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】参考范文： One day, Li Ming and I were getting boiled water in the water dispenser when suddenly the boiling water burnt his hands.

His dream was to become a famous pianist, hoping to charm audiences with his enchanting tunes. Every night, as he lay in bed, he imagined himself standing on grand stages. receiving thunderous applause and the admiration of countless music lovers. However, life had other plans for him. When Jack was interviewed for a well-known music school, his heart sank as he received a rejection letter, stating that his skills were not up to the school’s high standards, a cruel blow that left him feeling uncertain about his future. Disappointed but not discouraged, Jack decided to turn his setback into a stepping stone. Every day after school, he would rush to a small, dimly lit room in his basement, where an old piano stood as a silent witness to his unwavering determination. The room was humble, with barely enough space for him and the piano, but it was there that he poured his heart and soul into his craft. Hours turned into days, and days into months, with Jack’s fingers bleeding from the constant practice. Despite the pain and exhaustion, he continued to press on, driven by his dream and the belief that one day he would prove them all wrong. Seeking guidance, Jack turned to a retired pianist in the neighborhood who had once been a renowned performer. The retired pianist, impressed by Jack’s dedication and passion, took him under his wing and provided him with invaluable insights and comments. He taught Jack to refine his skills and technique, helping him to understand the art of performing. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数为120左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 His friends often teased him, calling his efforts useless and reminding him of the school’s rejection.

Madison Checketts, during her leisurely walks along her favourite beach in California, US, was met with a frustrating sight. The once-beautiful shoreline was now packed with wasted plastic water bottles, a cruel reminder of the global plastic pollution crisis. For Madison, who held this beach dear to her heart, seeing it ruined by these non-biodegradable items was deeply upset. The astonishing statistic that Americans cast away 60 million plastic bottles daily, with many of them ultimately ending up in landfills or the vast ocean, was a call to action she couldn’t ignore. Driven by a strong sense-of responsibility, Madison headed home and immediately set to work on seeking an eco-friendly solution. She named her creative water bottle the Eco-Hero. The magic behind this unique water bottle lies in its material calcium lactate (乳酸钙), a chemical compound. When processed, it undergoes a fascinating transformation from a soft material into a solid, edible shell. This not only makes the Eco-Hero an environmentally friendly option, as it is biodegradable and can break down naturally over time, but also offers a novel and enjoyable experience. The bottle has a delicate sweet flavour, which even gives the water inside a subtle sweet taste. Madison’s remarkable invention has rightfully earned her a spot in the final of a renowned Us science competition for young people. Beyond the prizes, she has a far-reaching aspiration. She hopes that her Eco-Hero will serve as a motivation, inspiring countless other young student to take steps, no matter how small, towards making the world a more sustainable and beautiful place. 24. What made Madison Checketts decide to create the Eco-Hero? A. The drive to protect her favourite beach. B. The high prize of the science competition. C. The dream of becoming a famous inventor. D. The cruel statistics of the global plastic pollution. 25. What can we infer from the passage about the Eco-Hero? A. It will replace traditional plastic bottles soon. B. It is good for the environment and interesting. C. It is more expensive than ordinary plastic bottles. D. It has a strong sweet flavor that people may dislike 26. What can we know about Madison’s participation in the science competition? A. She’ll profit a lot from the competition. B. Her school strongly supported her invention. C. All finalists focus on plastic-related solutions. D. The competition values environmental inventions. 27. Which of the following could best describe Madison Checketts? A. Adaptable and cautious. B. Ambitious and competitive. C. Imaginative and responsible. D. Detail-oriented and persistent. C We’ve all been in a position where our phone runs out of battery, but we don’t have anywhere to charge it. Well, what if the clothing you were wearing could help you out? It’s an option that isn’t as strange as you might think. Now the latest fashion breakthrough is taking “activewear” in an entirely new direction: researchers at Nottingham Trent University have developed a new fabric that can keep small devices juiced. The prototype (样品) includes 1,200 tiny solar panels, each measuring just 5 by 1.5 millimeters. It can generate 400 milliwatts of electrical energy, enough to charge electronic devices. “Until now very few people have considered their clothing products could be used for charging electronic devices,” explains Theodore Hughes-Riley, an associate professor of Electronic Textiles. “The material which we have developed appears and behaves the same as any ordinary fabric, as it can be washed in a machine. Besides, because the tiny solar cells are comprised of silicon (硅), wearers aren’t able to even notice a discrepancy in the fabric’s composition when it is compared to standard clothing.” Potential products include items like outerwear, backpacks and other carrying bags using the material, all of which could allow wearers to keep their devices charged during the day. “Electronic fabrics really have the potential to change people’s relationship with technology, as this prototype has shown how we could do away with charging many devices on the wall,” adds Theodore. Solar power inventions are key to transitioning (转变) human society from fossil fuel technologies, and are coming into a variety of fields. The European Space Agency, for example, plans to experiment with solar panel systems orbiting above Earth.

D Students and Technology in the Classroom I love my blackberry (黑莓手机) — it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others. On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule-no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy. Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students. The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration (专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion. I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom. I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a rally good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up. 32. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______. A. the course material B. others’ misuse of technology C. discussion topics D. the author’s class rules 33. The underlined word “engage” in para.4 probably means ______. A. explore B. accept C. change D. refuse 34. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______. A. keep students from doing independent thinking B. encourage students to have deep conversations C. help students to better understand difficult themes D. affect students’ concentration on the teacher’s ideas 35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ______. A. is quite stubborn in teaching B. will give up teaching history C. will change his teaching plan soon D. values technology-free dialogues in his class 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____36____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____37____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____38____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____39____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. ____40____ Read a book knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph. A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types. B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months. E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. F. Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom. G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I once worked in the remote but beautiful countryside.

His dream was to become a famous pianist, hoping to charm audiences with his enchanting tunes. Every night, as he lay in bed, he imagined himself standing on grand stages. receiving thunderous applause and the admiration of countless music lovers. However, life had other plans for him. When Jack was interviewed for a well-known music school, his heart sank as he received a rejection letter, stating that his skills were not up to the school’s high standards, a cruel blow that left him feeling uncertain about his future. Disappointed but not discouraged, Jack decided to turn his setback into a stepping stone. Every day after school, he would rush to a small, dimly lit room in his basement, where an old piano stood as a silent witness to his unwavering determination. The room was humble, with barely enough space for him and the piano, but it was there that he poured his heart and soul into his craft. Hours turned into days, and days into months, with Jack’s fingers bleeding from the constant practice. Despite the pain and exhaustion, he continued to press on, driven by his dream and the belief that one day he would prove them all wrong. Seeking guidance, Jack turned to a retired pianist in the neighborhood who had once been a renowned performer. The retired pianist, impressed by Jack’s dedication and passion, took him under his wing and provided him with invaluable insights and comments. He taught Jack to refine his skills and technique, helping him to understand the art of performing. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数为120左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 His friends often teased him, calling his efforts useless and reminding him of the school’s rejection.

He believed in the power of perseverance and knew that with enough hard work and dedication, he could turn his dreams into reality. His determination was evident in every step he took, every challenge he overcame. He spent countless hours improving his skills. A year later, the music school announced another interview. Jack nerved himself and submitted his application once again. This time, as he performed, the room resonated not just with notes but with the story of his unwavering determination and relentless pursuit of his dream. His fingers danced across the keys, creating a symphony of emotion and power that left the audience in awe. To everyone’s amazement, including Jack’s, he received an acceptance letter. He was overjoyed. All his efforts and persistence paid off! 1 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
