(9 - 11岁的孩子们将使用科学、技术、工程、艺术和数学来发现他们内心的发明家。)”可知9 - 11岁的露营者将运用科学、技术、工程、艺术和数学来发现自己内在的发明家潜质，也就是基于综合知识进行创造。故选A。 B Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project. I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family. Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out. After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, food, and hearts as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me. Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever. 24．What do we know about the author? A．He felt honored to study English literature. B．His dream at university was to become a volunteer. C．He took pride in having contributed to the world. D．His university education focused on theoretical knowledge. 25．How was the writer’s application process? A．Awkward. B．Complex. C．Entertaining. D．Effortless. 26．What did the writer do in the village? A．Working as a teacher. B．Helping villagers build hospitals. C．Raising money for his students. D．Inviting locals to enter his Project. 27．Which can be the best title of the text? A．Lighthouse Project—The Promise of African Education B．The Memorable and Rewarding life in Abuja C．A Life-changing Voluntary Experience D．Lighthouse Project—A Volunteer Organization for New Graduates 【参考答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. C 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者大学毕业后，虽然对未来充满希望但却不知如何实现自己的价值，后来了解到灯塔计划并成为其中的一名志愿者。经过一系列复杂的申请流程后，作者被派往尼日利亚阿布贾附近的一个小村庄，在那里作者带领当地人建造新校舍并在那所学校教书，这段经历让作者发生了改变，灯塔计划永远地改变了作者的生活。 【详情解析】 24.推理判断题。（下同）根据第一段中的 “My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.” 可知，作者的英国文学荣誉学位并没有让他为任何实际的事情做好准备。这意味着作者在大学接受的教育更侧重于理论知识，而缺乏实践方面的培养。A 选项 “他为学习英国文学感到荣幸”，文中未体现这种情感；B 选项 “他在大学的梦想是成为一名志愿者”，原文说他当时不知道自己想做什么，所以该选项错误；C 选项 “他为自己对世界做出了贡献而感到自豪”，在这一段还未体现他做了贡献，故该选项也不正确。所以 D 选项 “他的大学教育侧重于理论知识” 符合文意，选 D。 25.由第三段 “Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.” 可知，作者要先赢得家人的支持，然后提交所有申请所需的文件，接着要经过无数次的面试和展示，才在众多候选人中脱颖而出并独自通过测试。从这些描述可以看出，作者的申请过程是比较复杂的。A 选项 “尴尬的”，文中未提及申请过程的尴尬；C 选项 “有趣的”，文中没有体现申请过程有趣；D 选项 “轻松的”，与文中描述的复杂过程不符。所以 B 选项 “复杂的” 正确，选 B。 26.根据第四段 “For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse.” 可知，在接下来大约一年的时间里，作者在那所新建的校舍里教书。B 选项 “帮助村民建造医院”，文中说的是建造新校舍，不是医院；C 选项 “为他的学生筹集资金”，文中未提及；D 选项 “邀请当地人加入他的项目”，原文没有相关内容。所以 A 选项 “担任教师工作” 符合文意，选 A。 27.文章主要围绕作者参加灯塔计划成为志愿者，前往尼日利亚的小村庄，在那里经历了很多事情，最后这段经历改变了作者的生活展开叙述。A 选项 “灯塔计划 —— 非洲教育的希望”，文章重点不是在说非洲教育的希望，而是作者自身的经历，所以 A 选项不合适；B 选项 “在阿布贾难忘且有意义的生活”，范围较窄，没有突出灯塔计划以及对作者生活的改变，故 B 选项不准确；D 选项 “灯塔计划 —— 一个为应届毕业生设立的志愿者组织”，只是在介绍灯塔计划的性质，没有体现出对作者的影响，所以 D 选项也不正确。C 选项 “一次改变人生的志愿经历”，既提到了志愿经历，又突出了对作者生活的改变，符合文章主旨，选 C。 C Hadeda ibises, known as “African alarm clocks” for their loud calls, have long legs and thin beaks (鸟喙) and shiny feathers on their wings. Historically restricted to northeastern South Africa, hadedas have significantly expanded their range to many urban areas. Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this“sixth sense” and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. We conducted sensory tests with hadedas in bird cages. We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them. Further testing revealed that hadedas found worms more quickly in wetter soils. If the soil was too dry, they lost this ability and had to rely on random searching. These findings suggest that the hadedas’ expansion in South Africa is related to increased artificial watering systems. They require wet soil to use remote-touch effectively, which could explain their absence in dry regions. Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. The study highlights the broader implications for other remote-touch hunting birds, many of which are already endangered. As soil moisture levels decrease, these birds could become more at risk, stressing the importance of considering sensory requirements in conservation efforts. 28. What do we know about hadeda ibises? A. They are known for shiny feathers. B. They barely see any rise in numbers. C. They recall images of the dinosaurs. D. They have a specialized sensory organ. 29. Why were white noise and dead worms used in the experiment? A. To get a more reliable result. B. To add experimental items. C. To copy natural habitats. D. To avoid disturbing the subjects. 30. What does the research suggest about the impact of climate change on hadedas? A. Climate change will decrease their reliance on soil moisture. B. Droughts could make it more difficult for them to find prey. C. Increased rainfall will help them relocate to urbanized areas. D. Rising temperatures could increase their feeding efficiency. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The specialty of hadedas’ organs. B. The masters of dry land hunting. C. Hadedas’ prey detection in wet soil. D. Hadedas ibises’ urban expansion. 【参考答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种被称为 “非洲闹钟” 的红脸地犀鸟（Hadeda ibises）。这种鸟原本生活在南非东北部，现在其活动范围已显著扩展到许多城市地区。研究发现，红脸地犀鸟有一种特殊的感官器官 —— 喙尖器官，能够通过 “远程触摸” 感知土壤中猎物的移动，且这种能力与土壤湿度密切相关。研究还表明，气候变化导致的干旱和热浪可能会使它们更难探测到猎物，这对它们的种群构成威胁，同时也强调了在保护工作中考虑鸟类感官需求的重要性。 【详情解析】 28.根据第二段 “Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this ‘sixth sense’ and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels.” 可知，各种鹭科鸟类都有一种特殊的感官器官 —— 喙尖器官，能够通过 “远程触摸” 感知猎物的移动，而红脸地犀鸟也有这种 “第六感”。A 选项 “它们以闪亮的羽毛而闻名”，文中说它们有闪亮的羽毛，但闻名的是它们的叫声，不是羽毛，所以 A 选项错误；B 选项 “它们的数量几乎没有增加”，文中说它们的活动范围显著扩大，不能得出数量几乎没增加的结论，B 选项不正确；C 选项 “它们让人联想到恐龙的形象”，文中说喙尖器官在恐龙时代就已形成，并非是它们让人联想到恐龙形象，C 选项错误。所以 D 选项 “它们有一种特殊的感官器官” 符合文意，选 D。 29.根据第三段 “We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them.” 可知，在实验中使用白噪音掩盖声音，将死虫子混入土壤中去除气味线索，是为了排除其他因素的干扰，从而更准确地验证红脸地犀鸟是否能够通过 “远程触摸” 感知猎物的移动。B 选项 “增加实验项目”，使用白噪音和死虫子不是为了增加项目，而是为了控制变量，B 选项错误；C 选项 “复制自然栖息地”，实验重点不是复制栖息地，C 选项不符合；D 选项 “避免打扰实验对象”，主要目的不是避免打扰，而是为了得到可靠结果，D 选项不正确。所以 A 选项 “为了得到更可靠的结果” 正确，选 A。 30.根据第四段 “Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging.” 可知，随着气候变化，干旱和热浪预计会加剧，这会使红脸地犀鸟探测猎物变得更具挑战性，也就是说干旱可能会让它们更难找到猎物。A 选项 “气候变化将减少它们对土壤湿度的依赖”，与原文中它们需要湿润土壤才能有效使用 “远程触摸” 能力不符，A 选项错误；C 选项 “增加的降雨量将帮助它们重新迁移到城市化地区”，文中未提及增加降雨量与它们迁移到城市化地区的关系，C 选项不正确；D 选项 “气温上升可能会提高它们的觅食效率”，与原文中干旱和热浪会使觅食更困难相悖，D 选项错误。所以 B 选项 “干旱可能会使它们更难找到猎物” 符合文意，选 B。 31.文章开篇介绍了红脸地犀鸟的基本情况，接着重点阐述了关于它们通过 “远程触摸” 感知猎物以及这种能力与土壤湿度关系的研究，指出它们在湿润土壤中能更有效地探测猎物，干旱会对它们的觅食造成困难。A 选项 “红脸地犀鸟器官的特殊性”，只是文章的一部分内容，没有突出它们在湿润土壤中探测猎物这一重点，A 选项不准确；B 选项 “旱地狩猎的大师”，文章强调的是它们在湿润土壤中的情况，不是旱地，B 选项错误；D 选项 “红脸地犀鸟的城市扩张”，城市扩张只是其背景信息，不是文章主要内容，D 选项不合适。所以 C 选项 “红脸地犀鸟在湿润土壤中对猎物的探测” 符合文章主旨，选 C。 D A new study, led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), found the benefits of letter-spacing and coloured overlays (涂层) among a group of dyslexic (诵读困难的) and non-dyslexic children. It discovered that text with increased space between letters provided a benefit for both groups of children. On average, the dyslexia group showed a 13% increase in reading speed, while the comparison group of non-dyslexic children showed a 5% increase in reading speed. The study involved 59 children aged between 11 and 15,32 of whom had dyslexia, with 27 non-dyslexic children forming a control group. The participants were from six UK schools in Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and London. Participants read four texts with either standard or extra-large letter-spacing, both with and without a coloured overlay. The children were instructed to read these texts out loud while being recorded. The recordings were used to measure the number of errors they made—specifically missed words, added words, wrong words, and pronunciation—as well as the participants’ reading time. In addition to improving reading speed of children with and without dyslexia, the larger letter-spacing also resulted in a significant reduction in the number of words being missed by the children with dyslexia. Dr Stagg said, “We believe that extra-large letter-spacing reduces what is known as the ‘crowding effect’, which can prevent the recognition of letters and reduce reading speed.” When viewed in the context of previous research, the findings strongly suggest that teaching professionals should be confident that all children will be helped by increased letter-spacing in reading materials. It’s a relatively simple change for teachers to make when they produce handout s and exercises, and children with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by the introduction of specially adapted reading materials, as this change is something that everyone can benefit from. The study showed colored overlays didn’t affect reading speed or error reduction in children. Despite this, Dr. Stagg recommends using them, as they might improve reading stamina (耐力). 32. What does the new study focus on according to Paragraph 1? A. The features of dyslexia. B. The gap in children’s reading ability. C. Ways of examining children’s comprehension. D. Certain factors helping improve children’s reading ability. 33. What did the researchers do during the study? A. They asked children to document the reading material. B. They taught children some reading skills. C. They studied the recordings of children’s reading. D. They observed children’s performances in class. 34. How are children with dyslexic affected by the “crowding effect”? A. They may read materials faster than usual. B. They may make more mistakes when reading. C. They are forced to reflect on themselves more. D. They are willing to spend more time reading. 35. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 5? A. The significance of previous dyslexia children research. B. The necessity of paying attention to children with dyslexia. C. The suggestions and expectations from teaching professionals. D. The practicability and benefits of specially adapted reading materials. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一项关于调整字母间距和彩色涂层对阅读障碍儿童及普通儿童阅读能力影响的研究。 32.细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study, led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), found the benefits of letter-spacing and coloured overlays (涂层) among a group of dyslexic (诵读困难的) and non-dyslexic children. It discovered that text with increased space between letters provided a benefit for both groups of children.(Anglia Ruskin University的Steven Stagg博士领导的一项新研究发现，在一组有阅读困难和非阅读困难的儿童中，字母间距和彩色重叠有好处。研究发现，字母间距增大的文本对两组儿童都有好处。)”可知，这项新研究的重点是帮助提高儿童阅读能力的一些因素。故选D。 33.细节理解题。根据第三段“The recordings were used to measure the number of errors they made—specifically missed words, added words, wrong words, and pronunciation—as well as the participants’ reading time.(这些录音被用来测量他们犯的错误的数量——特别是遗漏的单词、增加的单词、错误的单词和发音——以及参与者的阅读时间。)”可知，研究人员在研究过程中研究了儿童阅读的录音。故选C。 34.推理判断题。根据第四段“We believe that extra-large letter-spacing reduces what is known as the ‘crowding effect’, which can prevent the recognition of letters and reduce reading speed.(我们认为，过大的字母间距减少了所谓的“拥挤效应”，这可能会阻碍字母的识别并降低阅读速度。)”可推断拥挤效应会导致更多阅读错误。故选B。 35.主旨大意题。根据第五段“When viewed in the context of previous research, the findings strongly suggest that teaching professionals should be confident that all children will be helped by increased letter-spacing in reading materials. It’s a relatively simple change for teachers to make when they produce handout s and exercises, and children with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by the introduction of specially adapted reading materials, as this change is something that everyone can benefit from.(在之前的研究背景下，研究结果强烈表明，教学专业人员应该相信，阅读材料中增加字母间距对所有孩子都有帮助。对于老师来说，这是一个相对简单的改变，当他们制作讲义和练习时，有阅读障碍的孩子不会因为引入特别改编的阅读材料而感到被孤立，因为这种改变是每个人都能从中受益的。)”可知，第五段主要讲的是专门改编的阅读材料的可行性与益处。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。 Studying abroad is an enriching experience that many students dream of.

G 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一些如何与寄宿家庭相处并充分利用这段经历的建议。文章指出，在国外留学时，与寄宿家庭一起生活是深入了解当地文化的好方法，接着从保持开放心态和适应能力、尊重寄宿家庭的家和财物、为家庭做贡献、保持独立与依赖的平衡以及表达感激之情等方面给出了具体的建议。 【详情解析】 36. 根据后文 “For example, if they eat dinner at a certain time every night, plan your activities accordingly.” 可知，此处举例说明要根据寄宿家庭的习惯来安排自己的活动，也就是要愿意调整自己适应他们的日常生活规律。D 选项 “Additionally, be willing to adjust to their routines.”（此外，要愿意适应他们的日常生活规律）符合语境，其中 “adjust to their routines” 与后文例子相呼应，所以选 D。 37. 根据前文 “Respect their home and belongings.” 以及后文 “It is important to keep your room clean and tidy, be mindful of noise levels, and ask permission before using their things.” 可知，这部分主要讲要尊重寄宿家庭的家和财物，后文具体说明了在居住空间内的一些注意事项，所以此处应说明与寄宿家庭一起生活意味着要共享居住空间。E 选项 “Living with a host family means sharing their living space.”（与寄宿家庭一起生活意味着要共享他们的居住空间）符合语境，引出后文关于在居住空间内的行为规范，所以选 E。 38. 设空处为本段的主旨句。根据后文 “Living with a host family is a two-way street. While they are providing you with a place to live and a sense of family, it is important that you assist them in some way. This could include helping with household chores, cooking meals, or even just spending time with their younger family members.” 可知，与寄宿家庭相处是相互的，在他们为你提供住所和家庭归属感的同时，你也应该以某种方式帮助他们，比如做家务、做饭等，也就是要为家庭做贡献。A 选项 “Contribute to the household.”（为家庭做贡献）符合语境，概括了本段的主要内容，所以选 A。 39. 根据前文 “Maintain a balance between independence and dependence. Living with a host family can be a delicate balance between independence and dependence. On the one hand, maintain a level of independence to fully involve yourself in the study abroad experience. On the other hand, remember that you are living with a family who may have certain responsibilities for you.” 可知，与寄宿家庭一起生活要在独立和依赖之间保持平衡，前面分别阐述了独立和依赖的方面，所以此处应强调找到这两者之间的平衡对于成功的留学经历很关键。F 选项 “Finding a balance between these two is key to a successful experience.”（在这两者之间找到平衡是成功经历的关键）符合语境，总结了前文关于独立和依赖的内容，所以选 F。 40. 根据前文 “Be grateful and show appreciation. Living with a host family is a privilege, and it is important to show appreciation for their hospitality.” 可知，这部分强调要对寄宿家庭的款待表示感激和欣赏，后文 “Small gestures like bringing home a gift or cooking a meal can go a long way toward building a positive relationship with your host family.” 举例说明了一些表达感激的方式，所以此处应进一步说明要表达感谢并尽可能帮忙。G 选项 “Express thanks and offer to help out around the house whenever possible.”（表达感谢并尽可能主动帮忙做家务）符合语境，承接前文关于感激的内容，并引出后文的例子，所以选 G。 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。 On a summer evening, my wife and I were on our way to the grocery store when I noticed a man sitting on the sidewalk.

B 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和妻子在去杂货店的路上遇到一个坐在人行道上的男子，他看起来精神状态不佳且可能饥饿，作者妻子提议买面包给他。回来后男子不在原处，作者夫妇准备回家时又发现他和一家农民工在一起。这家人虽然贫穷却热情接纳了他，一起用餐，作者夫妇看到这一幕后深受触动，在放下面包离开前领悟到了给予和分享的真正意义。 【详情解析】 41.根据语境 “A used advertisement banner (横幅) draped loosely around his waist was his only __41___in the bad weather.”，在恶劣天气中，一条旧广告横幅松垮地围在他腰间，这应该是他唯一的 “保护” 措施了。A 选项 “problem”（问题），放在此处不符合语境，横幅不是问题；B 选项 “habit”（习惯），横幅也不是习惯；D 选项 “choice”（选择），这里强调的是横幅在恶劣天气中起到保护作用，而非是一种选择，所以 “protection”（保护）最符合，选 C。 42. 从 “The blank look in his eyes indicated he was possibly incapable of 42___mental function.” 可知，他眼神空洞，这表明他可能没有 “正常的” 心智功能。A 选项 “actual”（实际的），不能准确描述他的精神状态；B 选项 “optional”（可选择的），与他的精神功能无关；C 选项 “original”（原始的，最初的）也不恰当，所以 “normal”（正常的）符合，选 D。 43. 由 “We tried asking him a few questions, but he showed no 43___that he had heard or understood us.” 可知，我们尝试问他几个问题，但是他没有任何 “迹象” 表明他听到或者理解了我们的话。A 选项 “doubt”（怀疑），这里不是说他有没有怀疑我们，而是有没有表现出听到理解我们的迹象；B 选项 “hope”（希望），与文意不符；D 选项 “fear”（恐惧），也不符合此处他对我们问题的反应，所以 “sign”（迹象）正确，选 C。 44. 根据 “He looks starving. Let’s buy him a loaf of bread, my wife___44.”，妻子说 “他看起来很饿。我们给他买条面包吧”，这是妻子提出的一个建议。B 选项 “admitted”（承认），不符合妻子说这话的情境；C 选项 “agreed”（同意），这里是妻子提出想法，不是同意；D 选项 “promised”（承诺），也不是承诺的意思，所以 “suggested”（建议）合适，选 A。 45. 从 “When we returned, he wasn’t there.45,we decided to go home, wondering what to do with the loaf of bread.” 可知，当我们回来时，他不在那里了，我们决定回家，还在想怎么处理这条面包，此时的心情应该是 “失望的”。A 选项 “Relieved”（宽慰的），他不在了我们不应该是宽慰；B 选项 “Inspired”（受到鼓舞的），没有相关依据表明受到鼓舞；C 选项 “Excited”（兴奋的），不符合这种情境下的情绪，所以 “Disappointed”（失望的）正确，选 D。 46. 由 “We'd barely gone a hundred meters when we 46____him. He was seated with a family of migrant labourers who had camped there.” 可知，我们刚走了不到一百米就 “发现” 了他，他正和一家在那里露营的农民工坐在一起。B 选项 “helped”（帮助），这里先强调发现他，不是帮助；C 选项 “visited”（拜访），不符合语境；D 选项 “followed”（跟随），不是跟随他，而是偶然看到他，所以 “spotted”（发现，看见）符合，选 A。 47. 从 “Surprisingly, none of the family members seemed to____47____his presence. In fact, he looked to be quite welcome.” 可知，令人惊讶的是，这家人似乎都不 “介意” 他的存在，实际上，他看起来还挺受欢迎的。A 选项 “guess”（猜测），这里说的是家人对他存在的态度，不是猜测；B 选项 “know”（知道），知道他存在不代表不介意，不符合文意；D 选项 “remember”（记得），与文意不符，所以 “mind”（介意）正确，选 C。 48. 依据 “Out of curiosity, I stopped my motorcycle and 48.”，出于好奇，我停下摩托车然后 “观察”。A 选项 “camped”（露营），不符合此时作者停下摩托车的目的；C 选项 “searched”（搜寻），不是搜寻，而是想看看情况；D 选项 “wandered”（徘徊），也不合适，所以 “observed”（观察）符合，选 B。 49. 根据 “It was dinnertime and the family was____49____around an open fire.”，到了晚餐时间，这家人正围在篝火旁 “聚集”。B 选项 “communicating”（交流），虽然可能会交流，但重点是围在一起的这个聚集状态；C 选项 “performing”（表演），不符合语境；D 选项 “waiting”（等待），不是在等待，所以 “gathering”（聚集）正确，选 A。 50. 从 “Even as she roasted more food, the lady watched on the stranger 50, making sure that his plate was not____51.” 可知，那位女士一边烤更多的食物，一边 “不时地” 看着这个陌生人，确保他的盘子不空。A 选项 “at a loss”（不知所措），不符合女士的行为；B 选项 “in the long run”（从长远来看），与文意不符；D 选项 “by no means”（绝不），也不正确，所以 “from time to time”（不时地）符合，选 C。 51. 由 “Even as she roasted more food, the lady watched on the stranger 50, making sure that his plate was not____51.” 可知，女士看着陌生人，确保他的盘子不 “空”。A 选项 “broken”（破碎的），这里说的是盘子里有没有食物，不是破碎；B 选项 “dusty”（布满灰尘的），与文意无关；C 选项 “wet”（湿的），也不符合，所以 “empty”（空的）正确，选 D。 52. 从 “The family was far from ____52____because they were the people who had no roof over their heads.” 可知，这家人远不 “富裕”，因为他们是没有住所的人。A 选项 “intelligent”（聪明的），与他们的经济状况无关；C 选项 “curious”（好奇的），也不符合；D 选项 “unfortunate”（不幸的），这里强调经济上不富裕，“wealthy”（富裕的）更准确，所以选 B。 53. 根据 “But they shared what they had, not something they had no ____53____for.”，他们分享了他们所拥有的，而不是分享他们没有 “用处” 的东西。B 选项 “patience”（耐心），与分享的东西无关；C 选项 “responsibilities”（责任），不符合文意；D 选项 “expectations”（期望），也不恰当，所以 “use”（用处）正确，选 A。 54. 从 “Overcome with guilt, we____54____the loaf of bread near the man and rode away” 可知，我们满怀愧疚，把面包 “放下” 在那个人旁边然后骑车走了。A 选项 “picked up”（捡起），与文意相反；B 选项 “checked out”（结账离开，检查），不符合；C 选项 “showed off”（炫耀），也不对，所以 “put down”（放下）正确，选 D。 55. 由 “but not before____55____the true meaning of giving and sharing.” 可知，在离开之前，我们 “学到了” 给予和分享的真正意义。A 选项 “explaining”（解释），这里不是解释意义，而是领悟到意义；C 选项 “forgetting”（忘记），不符合文意；D 选项 “assuming”（假设），也不正确，所以 “learning”（学习，领悟）正确，选 B。 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。 The ______56______ (high) anticipated animated film “Ne Zha Reborn into the World of Chaos” is set to grace (使增色) the Spring Festival movie lineup.

Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) perched (栖息) on their window. The father asked his son, “what is this?” The son replied, “It is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father , I have just now told you, it is a crow!” After a little while, the old father again asked his son for the third time, “What is this?” At this time some expression of irritation (恼怒) was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father with a rebuff (生硬回绝) . “It’s a crow , a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “ What is this?” This time, the son shouted at his father, “ Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?’ A little while later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered (发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary: “Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question.

His father would patiently answer the same question all 23 times without feeling annoyed while his father asked him the same question just four times! Only until then did he realize what a kind and selfless father he has! He loved his son so much but he didn't expect anything in return. He couldn’t help bursting into tears. Paragraph 2: Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. He said to his father with regret,“ I’m so stupid that I hurt you. In no case will I make you annoyed in the future. I promise to see you happy forever, Dad. It is you who have cared for me since I was a little child, showering your selfless love on me. But now, it is my turn to do that.’’ Dad smiled proudly and they hugged each other tightly. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达是读后续写。本文以人物为线索展开。一位80岁的老人和他受过高等教育的45岁的儿子坐在家里的沙发上。突然，一只乌鸦停在他们的窗户上。老人反复问儿子那是什么，儿子逐渐变得没有耐心。父亲拿来一本破旧的日记，日记里记录了儿子小时候有一天反复问父亲那是什么，父亲回答了很多次，但一点也不生气，是因为对儿子充满了爱。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“看完日记”可知，第一段可以描写看完日记后，儿子的心理活动和表情。 ②由第二段句首内容“儿子羞愧地跪在父亲面前。”可知，第二段可以描写儿子的语言和父亲的反应。 2.续写线索：读日记—回忆—愧疚—下跪—道歉—保证—相拥 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①回忆：recall/ look back upon ②回答：answer/ reply ③意识到：realize/ be aware of 情绪类 ①眼泪夺眶而出：tears roll down/ burst into tears/ tears burst out ②耐心回答：patiently answer/ answer with patience 【点睛】【高分句型1】His father would patiently answer the same question all 23 times without feeling annoyed while his father asked him the same question just four times!( 运用了动名词feeling作宾语) 【高分句型2】I’m so stupid that I hurt you.

To address this, I suggest adding more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into our meals, which provide essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that boost our immune system and energy. Additionally, replacing sugary drinks with water can also make a significant difference. Let’s take small but meaningful steps toward a healthier lifestyle today! Thank you! 第二节（满分25分） 【参考答案】 Paragraph 1: After reading the diary, tears rolled down the son’s face and he recalled the days when he used to sit together with his father. His father would patiently answer the same question all 23 times without feeling annoyed while his father asked him the same question just four times! Only until then did he realize what a kind and selfless father he has! He loved his son so much but he didn't expect anything in return. He couldn’t help bursting into tears. Paragraph 2: Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. He said to his father with regret,“ I’m so stupid that I hurt you. In no case will I make you annoyed in the future. I promise to see you happy forever, Dad. It is you who have cared for me since I was a little child, showering your selfless love on me. But now, it is my turn to do that.’’ Dad smiled proudly and they hugged each other tightly. 1 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高二英语下学期期中模拟卷 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 考生注意： 1．答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 3．测试范围：选择性必修三Units 1~5（人教版2019）。 4．难度系数：0.65。 5．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） 注意，听力部分答题时请先将答案标在试卷上，听力部分结束前你将有两分钟的时间将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，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有 10 秒钟的时 间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

B Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project. I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family. Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out. After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, food, and hearts as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me. Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever. 24．What do we know about the author? A．He felt honored to study English literature. B．His dream at university was to become a volunteer. C．He took pride in having contributed to the world. D．His university education focused on theoretical knowledge. 25．How was the writer’s application process? A．Awkward. B．Complex. C．Entertaining. D．Effortless. 26．What did the writer do in the village? A．Working as a teacher. B．Helping villagers build hospitals. C．Raising money for his students. D．Inviting locals to enter his Project. 27．Which can be the best title of the text? A．Lighthouse Project—The Promise of African Education B．The Memorable and Rewarding life in Abuja C．A Life-changing Voluntary Experience D．Lighthouse Project—A Volunteer Organization for New Graduates C Hadeda ibises, known as “African alarm clocks” for their loud calls, have long legs and thin beaks (鸟喙) and shiny feathers on their wings. Historically restricted to northeastern South Africa, hadedas have significantly expanded their range to many urban areas. Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this“sixth sense” and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. We conducted sensory tests with hadedas in bird cages. We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them. Further testing revealed that hadedas found worms more quickly in wetter soils. If the soil was too dry, they lost this ability and had to rely on random searching. These findings suggest that the hadedas’ expansion in South Africa is related to increased artificial watering systems. They require wet soil to use remote-touch effectively, which could explain their absence in dry regions. Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. The study highlights the broader implications for other remote-touch hunting birds, many of which are already endangered. As soil moisture levels decrease, these birds could become more at risk, stressing the importance of considering sensory requirements in conservation efforts. 28. What do we know about hadeda ibises? A. They are known for shiny feathers. B. They barely see any rise in numbers. C. They recall images of the dinosaurs. D. They have a specialized sensory organ. 29. Why were white noise and dead worms used in the experiment? A. To get a more reliable result. B. To add experimental items. C. To copy natural habitats. D. To avoid disturbing the subjects. 30. What does the research suggest about the impact of climate change on hadedas? A. Climate change will decrease their reliance on soil moisture. B. Droughts could make it more difficult for them to find prey. C. Increased rainfall will help them relocate to urbanized areas. D. Rising temperatures could increase their feeding efficiency. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The specialty of hadedas’ organs. B. The masters of dry land hunting. C. Hadedas’ prey detection in wet soil. D. Hadedas ibises’ urban expansion. D A new study, led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), found the benefits of letter-spacing and coloured overlays (涂层) among a group of dyslexic (诵读困难的) and non-dyslexic children. It discovered that text with increased space between letters provided a benefit for both groups of children. On average, the dyslexia group showed a 13% increase in reading speed, while the comparison group of non-dyslexic children showed a 5% increase in reading speed. The study involved 59 children aged between 11 and 15,32 of whom had dyslexia, with 27 non-dyslexic children forming a control group. The participants were from six UK schools in Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and London. Participants read four texts with either standard or extra-large letter-spacing, both with and without a coloured overlay. The children were instructed to read these texts out loud while being recorded. The recordings were used to measure the number of errors they made—specifically missed words, added words, wrong words, and pronunciation—as well as the participants’ reading time. In addition to improving reading speed of children with and without dyslexia, the larger letter-spacing also resulted in a significant reduction in the number of words being missed by the children with dyslexia. Dr Stagg said, “We believe that extra-large letter-spacing reduces what is known as the ‘crowding effect’, which can prevent the recognition of letters and reduce reading speed.” When viewed in the context of previous research, the findings strongly suggest that teaching professionals should be confident that all children will be helped by increased letter-spacing in reading materials. It’s a relatively simple change for teachers to make when they produce handout s and exercises, and children with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by the introduction of specially adapted reading materials, as this change is something that everyone can benefit from. The study showed colored overlays didn’t affect reading speed or error reduction in children. Despite this, Dr. Stagg recommends using them, as they might improve reading stamina (耐力). 32. What does the new study focus on according to Paragraph 1? A. The features of dyslexia. B. The gap in children’s reading ability. C. Ways of examining children’s comprehension. D. Certain factors helping improve children’s reading ability. 33. What did the researchers do during the study? A. They asked children to document the reading material. B. They taught children some reading skills. C. They studied the recordings of children’s reading. D. They observed children’s performances in class. 34. How are children with dyslexic affected by the “crowding effect”? A. They may read materials faster than usual. B. They may make more mistakes when reading. C. They are forced to reflect on themselves more. D. They are willing to spend more time reading. 35. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 5? A. The significance of previous dyslexia children research. B. The necessity of paying attention to children with dyslexia. C. The suggestions and expectations from teaching professionals. D. The practicability and benefits of specially adapted reading materials. 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。 Studying abroad is an enriching experience that many students dream of.

B Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project. I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family. Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out. After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, food, and hearts as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me. Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever. 24．What do we know about the author? A．He felt honored to study English literature. B．His dream at university was to become a volunteer. C．He took pride in having contributed to the world. D．His university education focused on theoretical knowledge. 25．How was the writer’s application process? A．Awkward. B．Complex. C．Entertaining. D．Effortless. 26．What did the writer do in the village? A．Working as a teacher. B．Helping villagers build hospitals. C．Raising money for his students. D．Inviting locals to enter his Project. 27．Which can be the best title of the text? A．Lighthouse Project—The Promise of African Education B．The Memorable and Rewarding life in Abuja C．A Life-changing Voluntary Experience D．Lighthouse Project—A Volunteer Organization for New Graduates C Hadeda ibises, known as “African alarm clocks” for their loud calls, have long legs and thin beaks (鸟喙) and shiny feathers on their wings. Historically restricted to northeastern South Africa, hadedas have significantly expanded their range to many urban areas. Various ibises use remote-touch to detect movements of prey (猎物) in the soil and locate their hidden place. This ability is facilitated by a sensory organ in their beaks, called the bill-tip organ, which developed during the time of the dinosaurs. My recent research confirmed that hadedas have this“sixth sense” and found it is closely tied to soil moisture (湿度) levels. We conducted sensory tests with hadedas in bird cages. We presented them with boxes of soil containing buried worms (虫), masking any sounds with white noise and mixing dead worms into the soil to remove scent cues (气味线索). The birds consistently found live worms faster than dead ones, indicating they are able to sense movements of prey and use remote-touch to find them. Further testing revealed that hadedas found worms more quickly in wetter soils. If the soil was too dry, they lost this ability and had to rely on random searching. These findings suggest that the hadedas’ expansion in South Africa is related to increased artificial watering systems. They require wet soil to use remote-touch effectively, which could explain their absence in dry regions. Droughts and heatwaves, expected to worsen with climate change, could threaten their population by making prey detection more challenging. The study highlights the broader implications for other remote-touch hunting birds, many of which are already endangered. As soil moisture levels decrease, these birds could become more at risk, stressing the importance of considering sensory requirements in conservation efforts. 28. What do we know about hadeda ibises? A. They are known for shiny feathers. B. They barely see any rise in numbers. C. They recall images of the dinosaurs. D. They have a specialized sensory organ. 29. Why were white noise and dead worms used in the experiment? A. To get a more reliable result. B. To add experimental items. C. To copy natural habitats. D. To avoid disturbing the subjects. 30. What does the research suggest about the impact of climate change on hadedas? A. Climate change will decrease their reliance on soil moisture. B. Droughts could make it more difficult for them to find prey. C. Increased rainfall will help them relocate to urbanized areas. D. Rising temperatures could increase their feeding efficiency. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The specialty of hadedas’ organs. B. The masters of dry land hunting. C. Hadedas’ prey detection in wet soil. D. Hadedas ibises’ urban expansion. D A new study, led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), found the benefits of letter-spacing and coloured overlays (涂层) among a group of dyslexic (诵读困难的) and non-dyslexic children. It discovered that text with increased space between letters provided a benefit for both groups of children. On average, the dyslexia group showed a 13% increase in reading speed, while the comparison group of non-dyslexic children showed a 5% increase in reading speed. The study involved 59 children aged between 11 and 15,32 of whom had dyslexia, with 27 non-dyslexic children forming a control group. The participants were from six UK schools in Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and London. Participants read four texts with either standard or extra-large letter-spacing, both with and without a coloured overlay. The children were instructed to read these texts out loud while being recorded. The recordings were used to measure the number of errors they made—specifically missed words, added words, wrong words, and pronunciation—as well as the participants’ reading time. In addition to improving reading speed of children with and without dyslexia, the larger letter-spacing also resulted in a significant reduction in the number of words being missed by the children with dyslexia. Dr Stagg said, “We believe that extra-large letter-spacing reduces what is known as the ‘crowding effect’, which can prevent the recognition of letters and reduce reading speed.” When viewed in the context of previous research, the findings strongly suggest that teaching professionals should be confident that all children will be helped by increased letter-spacing in reading materials. It’s a relatively simple change for teachers to make when they produce handout s and exercises, and children with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by the introduction of specially adapted reading materials, as this change is something that everyone can benefit from. The study showed colored overlays didn’t affect reading speed or error reduction in children. Despite this, Dr. Stagg recommends using them, as they might improve reading stamina (耐力). 32. What does the new study focus on according to Paragraph 1? A. The features of dyslexia. B. The gap in children’s reading ability. C. Ways of examining children’s comprehension. D. Certain factors helping improve children’s reading ability. 33. What did the researchers do during the study? A. They asked children to document the reading material. B. They taught children some reading skills. C. They studied the recordings of children’s reading. D. They observed children’s performances in class. 34. How are children with dyslexic affected by the “crowding effect”? A. They may read materials faster than usual. B. They may make more mistakes when reading. C. They are forced to reflect on themselves more. D. They are willing to spend more time reading. 35. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 5? A. The significance of previous dyslexia children research. B. The necessity of paying attention to children with dyslexia. C. The suggestions and expectations from teaching professionals. D. The practicability and benefits of specially adapted reading materials. 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。 Studying abroad is an enriching experience that many students dream of.
