B Eight hours shovelling snow in -20°C might not sound like the ideal day out, but a committed team of volunteers in Finland are working dawn to dusk building enormous snow drifts(雪堆)for one of the world’s most endangered seals. The Saimaa ringed seal was once common around Lake Saimaa in the south-east of Finland, but now only 495 of them remain. In the late 1980s the population of the seals decreased to its lowest point, with fewer than 200 left, driven by hunting and deaths caused by fish traps. Accidental deaths in fishing nets remain a challenge. Now, the seals are fully protected but the threat of the climate emergency is worrying. The seals make “snow caves” inside snow drifts where they raise their young and protect them from the elements and predators such as red foxes, but as the climate warms, the snow is disappearing. To save these rare seals, 300 volunteers spend days shovelling snow into piles 7m long and 1.5m high around the edge of the frozen lake. “It’s kind of a snow cave.” says Vincent Biard, a PhD student and volunteer from the University of Eastern Finland. “The seals come from under and dig into the snow drifts to create a cave where they can give birth and raise their young.” They get around on foot or skis, dragging their equipment with them over a distance of 10km. Biard describes the day as “kind of fun”, and adds, “you actually have an impact, which is nice. If we don’t do it, then they would just go extinct quite quickly.” More than 300 pups have been born in artificial snowdrifts since they started making them in 2014. “We are on a rising growth curve, so things still look pretty nice,” says Jari Ilmonen , coordinator of Our Saimaa Seal Life, which is an EU-funded programme. “We are doing what we can, so we have to have hope and positive thoughts.” Human-made snow drifts are larger and “more durable than natural snow drifts”, says Ilmonen. “By the first half of February most of the natural ones had melted away, but the manmade ones stood strong.” 24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The two functions of snow drifts. B. The threats to the Saimaa ringed seals. C. The big concern about global warming. D. The full recovery of the seals’ population. 25. Which of the following can best describe the work of the volunteers? A. Effective but boring. B. Valuable but impractical. C. Demanding but fulfilling. D. Dangerous but enjoyable. 26. What does Ilmonen say about manmade snow drifts? A. They can help all marine life survive winters. B. They are more comfortable than natural ones. C. They will not melt until the end of the spring. D. They have seen progress in protecting the seals. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To celebrate an effort to protect wildlife. B. To introduce one of endangered animals. C. To explain benefits of artificial snowdrifts. D. To raise the awareness of the climate crisis. C Self-confidence is trusting in our abilities or qualities. It’s usually seen as a good thing. But is it possible that we might benefit from a little less confidence in our beliefs? For many years, Dr. Mark Leary, a neuroscientist at Duke University in Durham, N.C., has studied the role of people’s beliefs in their behavior. He found overconfidence is very common, especially when it comes to what people believe to be true, and can lead us to disastrous decisions. In 1986, NASA believed that the risk of loss for any space flight was roughly 1 in 100,000. It was an overconfident belief and might have led to the explosion of the Challenger. The good news is that there’s a “vaccine” for overconfidence, and that’s what scientists call “intellectual humility” — recognizing that your beliefs could be wrong. A survey of 144 college students to measure their intellectual humility found that students who saw their thinking could be wrong tended to be more curious and more likely to seek out new knowledge. They ended up knowing more at the end of the day. But does it actually help you beyond that? To find out more, Dr. Tenelle Porter at Ball State University conducted a series of studies with high school students. She found that students with intellectual humility were much more likely to test themselves to see whether they really understood the material and seek out potential holes in their understanding. When they got test scores, they’d change their study strategies to improve their performance and master the material for the next test. Students who didn’t see their knowledge could be wrong might instead just sail through their studying and wouldn’t stop to ask themselves if they truly understood what they read, heard,or did. Such students thought they got a subject down pat, but when asked to explain it on a test, they found they didn’t actually understand as much as they had thought. Although it might be good for you, researchers recognize that questioning your beliefs can be truly hard. Still, it’s important to remember that questioning beliefs isn’t always about replacing old ones with new ones. If you find it hard to question a belief, try taking “baby steps.” 28. Why does the author mention the explosion of the Challenger? A. To express his sorrow for the loss. B. To stress the high risk of space flights. C. To show the result of wrong operation. D. To give an example of overconfidence. 29. What do we know about intellectual humility according to Porter’s research? A. It urged students to gain recognition. B. It encouraged students to take exams. C. It helped students to adjust learning methods. D. It motivated students to memorize knowledge. 30. What do the underlined words “got a subject down pat” mean in paragraph 5? A. Fully mastered a subject. B. Put great effort into a subject C. Really enjoyed a subject. D. Benefited a lot from a subject. 31. What will probably be discussed in the following paragraphs? A. Why questioning our belief is hard. B. Why intellectual humility is helpful. C. How to become a confident person. D. How to practice intellectual humility. D The brain is protected by shock-absorbing fluid and, outside that, the skull. In a concussion(脑震荡), the brain bounces around in the skull, accelerating, decelerating or revolving. This creates a series of impacts. The neurons(神经元) in the brain are disturbed, and between those neurons, the axons ― thin fibers that transmit electrical impulses―stretch or break. Inside the brain, it’s like an earthquake that has happened. Everything is still standing, but there are cracks in the roads and in building foundations. This extremely small damage has big consequences. But decades ago, the public had a “walk it off” attitude towards concussions. That’s changed, thanks in part to an increased awareness about the long-term effects. The 2015 film “Concussion” tells the true story of Dr Bennet Omalu, a forensic pathologist studying chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disorder caused by repeated head injuries. Until recently, the dark-room treatment was the standard prescribed by most doctors, involving patients resting in darkness and without any mental stimulation, until their symptoms eased off. This suggestion came out of studies in the 1990s and early 2000s that found when athletes with concussions continued with high levels of activity, they recovered more slowly than those who rested. But people who spend more time in a dark room ― sometimes called “cocooning” ― are also more likely to experience anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Their bodies get weaker due to underuse, as well. “Science and research have evolved over the past decade, showing that when you stop doing activity altogether, that actually affects your recovery process,” says Babul, a sports-injury specialist. The active-rest approach to concussion recovery promotes a slow increase in activity, starting with a day or two of light daily movement, and gradually adding activity, building to a full return to normal, unrestricted activity. “People who follow the right guidance and management tend to recover uneventfully, and those who don’t and continue to do their activities continue to tax their brain and are likely to have long-term, persisting symptoms,” Babul says. “The key is to recognize it immediately and know what to do.” 32. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. The workings of concussion. B. The causes of concussion. C. The symptoms of concussion. D. The effects of concussion 33. What leads to people’s weaker bodies in the dark-room treatment? A. The dark environment. B. Their physical pain. C. Their insufficient activity. D. Their mental disorder. 34. Which practice is advised to help with concussion, according to the passage? A. Setting a progressive fitness plan first. B. Doing heavy housework daily. C. Playing competitive sports regularly. D. Lying in bed for the whole day. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. From Inaction to Action: Concussion Shocks B. From Darkness to Light: Concussion Recovery C. From Outside to Inside: Concussion Treatment D. From Nothing to Something: Concussion Study 第二节：阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（共5小题，计12.5分） You have to make a speech. You have done your research and now have plenty of ideas bouncing around in your head that you want to get across. The big question you face at this point is how to organize those thoughts. 36 You need to brainstorm some supporting ideas and then figure out how those ideas fit together. These are just two cases that many people deal with frequently. Some use outlining to flesh out and organize their ideas, but is that the best strategy? 37 38 This two-dimensional structure is designed to help you remember information because its format is easy for your mind to remember. More than 250 million people worldwide use them, so why don’t you have a try and see what they are all about? What is a mind map? Simply put, it is one’s ideas put into the form of a visual diagram that starts with a central idea. Put this idea in a bubble in the middle of a page with lines radiating out to other bubbles that contain related themes or concepts. 39 Use words, short phrases or images to express your ideas. And use color-coded bubbles for a visual representation of each branch’s connection. Studies have shown that this technique of using pictures, colors and visual arrangement has improved people’s recall and memory of information by 10 to 15 percent. 40 Creativity is aroused because of the spatial arrangement, enabling people to make more links and associations on topics of any kind. Additionally, it increases one’s productivity because mind mapping makes it easier to learn faster. So whether you’re in charge of a project or writing a research paper, make this technique a core part of your planning process! A. But it doesn’t stop there. B. It should look like a many-legged spider. C. This is a common problem that many people face. D. It has proven to increase not only productivity and creativity but also memory. E. Or perhaps you are planning to write a paper, and all you have is the main topic. F. If everyone thought in a linear manner, then the answer would be yes, but most people don’t. G. Enter mind mapping, a technique that show different ideas and facts relate to one another. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的ABCD四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。（共15小题，计15分） The side door of the aircraft was opened, and a brisk wind rushed in.

She was leaving for London because she got a new job there. It was said that her new boss was a typical English gentleman—polite, modest, humorous and considerate. She was excited as well as a little nervous about her new life. With several long hours before her flight, the woman hunted for a book in the airport shops, bought a packet of cookies and found a place to sit. She took out a book and started to read. Although she was absorbed in her book, she happened to see that the man sitting beside her, as bold (大胆的) as he could be, grabbed (抓) a cookie or two from the bag in between them. Educated to be well-mannered, she tried to ignore it to avoid an argument. But to show that she was the owner, she started to take cookies from that bag too. Unfortunately, the man didn't get that hint (暗示), since he didn't stop grabbing the cookies. “How annoying!” She thought. As the greedy cookie thief kept eating, the woman munched (用力咀嚼) some cookies and watched the clock. She was getting angrier as the minutes went by, thinking, “If I weren't so nice, I would blacken his eyes.” With each cookie she took, he took one, too; when only one was left, she wondered what he would do. With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her a half, and ate the other. She grabbed it from him, glared at him and thought, “Oh, brother. This guy has some nerve and he is so rude! Why didn’t he even show any gratefulness?” She had never known when she had been so angry, and sighed in relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate quickly, refusing to look back at the rude thief. She boarded the plane, sank in her seat, and looked for her book, which was almost complete. 注意：续写词数应为150左右。 As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with surprise.___________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ Surprisingly, she found the man sitting just behind her._____________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 二段答案 听力：BABCA CBCBA CABAC BCABA 阅读：ACB BCDA DCAD ACAB EFGBA 完型：41-45 CADBC 46-50 ADCAB 51-55 DBADB 语法填空： 56. influential 57.enthusiastically 58.has been working 59.recognition 60.be promoted 61.a 62.down 63.which 64. learning 65.stronger 66. Our Oceans, Our Responsibility June 8th was officially named by the UN in 2009 as World Oceans Day. It was set up to raise awareness of protecting the oceans, which play a crucial part in the global ecosystem. Without the oceans, no living things would survive, humans included. As senior students, we can protect oceans in our own way. First, try every means to fight against global warming, which has become a great threat to sea creatures. Second, when surfing or boating, never drop litter into the sea. In addition, take an active part in voluntary activities launched by ocean conservation organizations. Every little effort counts. As long as we try our best, we will make a difference to the marine environment. 67. As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with surprise.

Subsequently,the woman explained the whole misunderstanding to him in a low voice . Two days later, when the woman came her new company to work , she found that the gentleman sharing his cookies with her at the airport was her boss. What a coincidence! A篇 本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了BGSU（鲍灵格林州立大学）举办的海洋生物学夏令营的相关信息，包括活动内容、费用、申请要求及截止日期等。主要考查考生对语篇细节信息的理解能力。核心价值在于引导考生关注科学实践活动，培养对海洋生物学的兴趣和探索精神。 21. 答案：A。细节理解题。根据文章“What kinds of activities do campers get to do?”部分的内容可知，夏令营的活动包括实地考察、标本采集实践、设计和进行实验、参观动物园以及会见专业人士。因此，样本采集实践包含在内，因此答案为A。22.答案：C。细节理解题。根据文章“What does the cost cover?”部分的内容可知，非住宿项目的费用为850，住宿项目需额外支付400，因此住宿项目的总费用为1，250。早申请可享受9折，即1，250×90%=1，125，因此答案为C。 23.答案：B。细节理解题。根据文章“Application Requirements”部分的注释可知，如果申请者提供的回答是由他人代写的，申请将被取消资格，因此答案为B。 B篇 第24题 B 第二段首先讲述了Saimaa环斑海豹曾经数量减少的原因,如狩猎、渔具致死等,接着提到现在面临的气候变暖导致雪堆减少的威胁,整体围绕海豹面临的威胁展开,B选项正确。A选项“The two functions of snow drifts”(雪堆的两个功能)只涉及部分内容;C选项“The big concern about global warming”(对全球变暖的担忧)没有全面概括段落;D选项“The full recovery of the seals' population”(海豹种群的完全恢复)与段落主旨不符。 第25题 C 文中描述志愿者的工作是在-20℃铲雪堆,这表明工作很辛苦(demanding),但他们的工作能帮助海豹,志愿者觉得很有意义(fulfilling),C选项正确。A选项“boring”(无聊)错误;B选项“impractical”(不切实际)不符合文意;D选项“dangerous”(危险)文中未体现。 第26题 D 根据Ilmonen所说“More than 300 pups have been born in artificial snowdrifts since they started making them in 2014. We are on a rising growth curve”,可以知道人造雪堆在保护海豹方面取得了成效,D选项正确。A选项“help all marine life survive winters.”(帮助所有海洋生物度过冬天)过于绝对;B选项“more comfortable”(更舒适)文中未提及;C选项“not melt until the end of the spring”(直到春末才融化)错误，文中未给出明确时间节点。 第27题 A 文章重点讲述了志愿者通过人工建造雪堆保护濒危海豹的行动,其目的是赞扬这种保护野生动物所做的努力，A选项正确。B选项“introduce one of endangered animals”(介绍一种濒危动物)只是部分内容;C选项“explain benefits of artificial snowdrifts”(解释人造雪堆的好处)不是主要目的;D选项“raise the awareness of the climate crisis”(提高对气候危机的认识)不是重点。 C篇 本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了过度自信可能带来的负面影响，并介绍了“智力谦逊”这一概念及其在学习和决策中的积极作用。文章通过研究实例和实验结果，分析了智力谦逊对个人学习和行为的影响，并提出了实践智力谦逊的建议。主要考查考生对语篇细节信息的理解能力和基于信息进行推断的能力。核心价值在于引导考生反思自信与谦逊的平衡，培养批判性思维和科学探究精神。 28. 答案：D。推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知，作者提到挑战者号爆炸事件是为了说明过度自信可能导致的灾难性后果。NASA曾认为航天飞行失败的风险极低（约十万分之一），这种过度自信可能是导致挑战者号爆炸的原因之一。因此，作者提到这一事件的目的是给出一个过度自信的例子，因此答案为D。 29. 答案：C。细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容可知，Porter博士的研究发现，具有智力谦逊的学生更倾向于测试自己是否真正理解了学习内容，并寻找自己理解中的漏洞。当考试成绩公布后，他们会调整学习策略以提高表现，并在下一次考试中更好地掌握知识。由此可推断智力谦逊帮助学生调整学习方法，因此答案为C。  30.   答案：A。词义猜测题。根据文章第五段内容可知，那些认为自己“got a subject down pat”的学生在考试中被要求解释时，发现自己并没有真正理解所学内容。因此，由此可推断“got a subject down pat”的意思是完全掌握了一个科目，因此答案为A。 31. 答案：D。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容可知，研究人员承认质疑自己的信念可能非常困难，但同时也建议可以通过“小步骤”来实践。由此可推断接下来可能会讨论如何实践智力谦逊，因此答案为D。 D篇 第32题 A 第一段主要描述了脑震荡的工作原理，即大脑在颅骨内如何因冲击而加速、减速或旋转，造成一系列冲击。B. The causes of concussion（脑震荡的原因）、C. The symptoms of concussion（脑震荡的症状）和D. The effects of concussion（脑震荡的影响）虽然在文中有所提及，但第一段的核心是描述脑震荡的工作机制。  第33题  C 文章中提到，长时间在暗室中的人更有可能经历焦虑、抑郁和睡眠问题，并且由于缺乏使用，他们的身体也会变弱。A. The dark environment（黑暗的环境）、B. Their physical pain（他们的身体疼痛）和D. Their mental disorder（他们的精神障碍）虽然可能是暗室治疗中的问题，但文章明确指出是由于“不足的活动”导致的身体虚弱。 第34题A。文章中提到了“active-rest approach to concussion recovery”（积极的休息方法治疗脑震荡），建议从轻微的日常活动开始，逐渐增加活动量，直至完全恢复正常、不受限制的活动。这与A选项“首先制定一个循序渐进的健身计划”相符，强调了逐步增加活动的重要性。 第35题 B。文章讨论了从过去对脑震荡的“暗室治疗”到现在更积极的恢复方法的转变。B选项“从黑暗到光明：脑震荡恢复”恰当地概括了这一转变。A、C、D虽然与脑震荡有关，但没有B选项那么准确地反映文章的主要内容。 七选五 本篇文章介绍了思维导图这一技巧在帮助人们整理信息时的优势。 第36题 E 结合第二段第一句话“These are just two cases...”可以推测出第一段提及了2种情况，再结合目前第一段只存在“make a speech”这一种，不难得出空句处需要介绍另一种情况，结合各选项可以得出选择E选项。 第37题 F 空句前“Some use outlining to flesh out and organize their ideas，but is that the best strategy？”提出了一个问题，可以推测出空句处是对该问题的回答，故选择F选项。 第38题 G 空句后的句子“this two-dimensional structure is designed to...”中提到了二维结构，由此可以推测出空句作为本段首句应该点明这个二维结构是什么，再结合第三段第一句“What is a mind map”，可得出选择G选项。 第39题 B 空前句“Put this idea in a bubble in the middle of a page with lines radiating out to other bubbles that contain related themes or concepts.”形容了思维导图的呈现形式，空句处是对这一呈现方式的一个比喻—像一个有许多腿的蜘蛛，故选择B选项。 第40题 A 本段介绍了思维导图的优势，空句前提到思维导图能够“improve people's recall and memory of information”，空句后提到可以“arose creativity”，由此可以推测出空句起到过渡的作用，连接这两个优势，故选择A选项。 完形填空 第41题 C 从前文做述“飞机门打开，风涌入”，以及后文所述的跳伞可知，此时孩子们“凝视”着无尽的天空，“staring”表示凝视。A. leaving 离开，B. standing 站立，D. putting 放置，均不符合题意。 第42题 A 从前文描述的海拔高度与儿子的脸变得苍白可知，这里儿子可能带有害怕的心理，因此这里填儿子“小心翼翼地”靠近开口，“cautiously”表示小心翼翼地。B. swiftly 迅速地，C. closely 紧密地，D. proudly 自豪地，均不符合题意。 第43题 D 根据前文提到的跳伞活动，儿子从“飞机”上掉了出去，“plane”表示飞机。A. wing 翅膀，B. hole 洞，C. window 窗户，均不符合题意。 第44题 B 根据后文提到的“轮到我女儿了”，可知此处是跳伞前的指示。根据生活经验可知，跳伞的环境比较吵闹，因此这里填“喊叫”声开始，“barked”表示喊叫。A. overlooked 忽视，C. interrupted 打断，D. posted 张贴，均不符合题意。 第45题 C 根据后文提到的女儿“笑着叫着”，可知她此时是“充满喜悦”的，“joyful”表示充满喜悦。A. regretful 后悔的，B. grateful 感激的，D. sorrowful 悲伤的，均不符合题意。 第46题 A 根据前文提到的“我是否还能再见到他们”，可知此处表达的是恐惧“袭来”或“笼罩”了我，“overcame”在这里表示一种强烈的情感突然控制了某人。B. refreshed 更新，C. discouraged 气馁，D. confused 困惑，均不符合题意。 第47题 D 根据前文提到的“我是否还能再见到他们”，可知此处是这个想法很快“消失”了，“passed”表示消失。A. crept 爬行，B. surged 激增，C. returned 返回，均不符合题意。 第48题 C 从后文终于下定决心跳伞可知，这里作者畏缩了。"chicken out"在这里表示“临阵退缩”，即在最后关头放弃原本计划好的事情。根据语境，作者并没有放弃，而是勇敢地进行了跳伞，所以"chicken out"是正确的选择。A. give out 分发，B. set out 出发，D. work out 解决，均不符合题意。 第49题 A 根据上下文，这里的情景是跳伞，当一个庆祝五十周年纪念日的女性“决定跳伞”时，作者意识到自己也应该这样做。"dive"在这里表示“跳伞”。B. divorce 离婚，C. withdraw 撤退，D. abandon 放弃，均不符合题意。 第50题 B 根据前文提到的“跳伞”，可知此处是我现在在“空中”，“air”表示空中。A. jungle 丛林，C. dilemma 困境，D. darkness 黑暗，均不符合题意。 第51题 D 根据前文提到的“纯粹的恐惧和喜悦”，可知此处是“涌入”，“rolled in”表示涌入。A. came back 返回，B. faded away 消失，C. died down 平息，均不符合题意。 第52题 B 根据前文提到的“跳伞”，可知此处是我看见儿子和女儿跑来“迎接”我，“greet”表示迎接。A. rescue 救援，C. address 地址，D. search 搜索，均不符合题意。 第53题 A 根据前文提到的“跳伞”完成后儿子和女儿来迎接我，可知此处是我们有一个兴奋的“拥抱”，“hug”表示拥抱。B. exchange 交换，C. match 匹配，D. comment 评论，均不符合题意。 第54题 D 由后半句可知这次的跳伞，教会了我重要的道理，因此此空填一个褒义词，故选这是一个“象征性”的时刻，“symbolic”表示象征性的。A. temporary 暂时的，B. awkward 尴尬的，C. desperate 绝望的，均为贬义词，不符合题意。 第55题 B 根据前文提到的“跳伞”，可知此处是与安全的出现相比，“坚持”不再感觉是唯一的选择，“Sticking to”表示坚持。A. Climbing 攀爬，C. Responding 回应，D. Dropping 掉落，均不符合题意。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
