【参考范文】:
Knowing what I had to say, I took a shaking step toward the stage. My hands were sweaty, and my voice shook at first. “My most embarrassing and regretful moment was when I broke my friend Lucy’s trust,” I said. “I said something mean about her without thinking. I was wrong, and I’ve felt bad about it. Lucy, you’re an amazing friend—you’re kind and caring. I am so sorry for my thoughtless words.” As I spoke, I kept looking at Lucy anxiously and saw the tears pouring down her cheeks.
That day marked a turning point. Lucy and I didn’t talk about what had happened, but we started to talk, laugh together, and share secrets again, as if she had silently forgiven me. From then on, our friendship was rekindled, and we made a promise to always communicate openly. This incident not only mended our relationship but also taught me the power of apology and the importance of being mindful of others’ feelings in every friendship.
主旨升华句
· True friendship not only withstands mistakes but also deepens through sincere apologies and mutual understanding.
· This experience taught me that admitting one's faults is the first step towards mending broken relationships and growing as a person.
· Through this incident, I realized that every friendship is a precious gift, and it requires careful nurturing and the humility to make amends.
东莞实验中学2024-2025学年第二学期段考一 高二英语答案解析
【A篇】11-13 BBB
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述赵新玲创办贵州省首家贵阳市关爱儿童特殊教育康复中心并向7000多名自闭症儿童提供了支持的故事。
11.词句猜测题。由文章第二段“Over the years, she has provided support to more than 7,000 children with autism and witnessed the autistic community flourish — from being under-recognized to being increasingly understood and accepted — and she has seen how the community is gaining more support from broader society.(多年来,她为7000多名自闭症儿童提供了支持,见证了自闭症社区的 ——从被低估到越来越被理解和接受——她也看到了社区是如何从更广泛的社会中获得更多支持的。)”中the community is gaining more support from broader society可知,这里指自闭症社区的不断“发展”,所以猜测flourish表“发展”的意思,与B项Progress意思相近。故选B项。
12.细节理解题。根据第三四段可知,赵新玲因儿子患病投身自闭症救助事业,于2003年创办了一家自闭症康复中心,让患儿能在本地接受教育,同时为家长提供互助平台。她推行融合教育,促进社会对自闭症的认知与接纳,故选B。
13.推理判断题。由文章最后一段“We need to view autism positively, accept it, and enjoy the different life it offers.(我们需要积极看待自闭症,接受它,享受它所提供的不同生活。)”可知,作者这里强调我们应该正常对待有自闭症人,不应该用异样眼光看待,换句话说,我们应该尊重每一个生命。故选B项。【B篇】14-16. CAB
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究,表明在年轻的时候上夜班和不稳定的时间表到中年时会患上抑郁症且健康状况不佳。
14.细节理解题。根据第一段中“A new study shows that working nights and volatile schedules in young adulthood can leave you to suffer from depression and poor health in middle age. (一项新的研究表明,在年轻的时候上夜班和不稳定的时间表会让你在中年时患上抑郁症且健康状况不佳。)”第二段中“Those with volatile work schedules reported a greater likelihood of poor health and depression at age 50 than those with more stable schedules. (那些工作时间不稳定的人在50岁时比那些工作时间稳定的人更有可能出现健康状况不佳和抑郁。)”可知,Han的研究主要告诉我们不稳定的工作时间的长期影响。故选C项。
15.推理判断题。根据第四段“Dr. Alyson Myers, a professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, appreciated the new study’s focus on the connection between work schedules, sleep and poor health. The study findings confirmed what she sees in many of her diabetes (糖尿病) patients, who often get no more than five hours of sleep after they work night shifts. (Albert Einstein医学院教授Alyson Myers博士对这项新研究对工作安排、睡眠和健康状况不佳之间关系的关注表示赞赏。研究结果证实了她在许多糖尿病患者身上看到的情况,这些患者在上夜班后通常睡眠时间不超过五个小时。)”可知,Myers对那些工作时间不稳定的人是同情体谅的。故选A项。
16.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Han would like her research to promote conversations about ways of providing resources to help people live a happy and healthy life when they’re dog-tired both physically and emotionally because of their work.( Han希望她的研究能够促进有关提供资源的方式的讨论,以帮助人们在因工作而身心疲惫时过上幸福健康的生活。)”可知,Han希望她的研究能提供帮助人们过上幸福健康的生活。故选B项。
【C篇】17-20. BCAD
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是用一种更加友好的方式建立一种新型的太阳能农场,这种新型的农场更有利于保护各种传粉昆虫,从而促进农业的发展。
17.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.(通常,他们最终会用小石头填满该地区,并使用化学物质来控制杂草。结果是,许多社区,特别是在农业地区,将太阳能农场视为土壤的破坏者。)”可知,太阳能开发者采用不环保的方式处理太阳能板安装后产生的问题,导致人们把太阳能农场看作是土壤的破坏者,由此可以推断,开发者在安装太阳能板后忽略了其带来的负面影响。故选B项。
18.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land.(InSPIRE正在研究“低影响”太阳能开发的实用方法,其重点是以对土地更友好的方式建立和运营太阳能农场。)”可知,InSPIRE采用有好的方式建立和运营太阳能农场,也就是使得太阳能农场更加环保。故选C项。
19.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use.(超过28个州通过了与传粉媒介栖息地保护和农药使用有关的法律。)”可知,这些法律都是与保护传粉者栖息地和农药使用相关,所以这些法律的目的是保护授粉者。故选A项。
20.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction.(在过去的几年里,许多太阳能农场开发商将太阳能电池板下的空间改造成各种传粉媒介的庇护所,从而改善了土壤并减少了碳排放。)”可知,现在的太阳能农场在过去的几年里已经得到了很大的发展,更重要的是太阳能农场也变得更加的环保,这将是未来发展农业的新趋势,再结合全文对太阳农场的发展过程的介绍可以判断,本文主题是介绍太阳能农场。故选D项。
【七选五】21-25. EGBFC
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述无塑料野餐,并给出了具体的建议。
21.上文“Sure, it means the cleanup is easy at the moment, but it just puts it off to a later point, when it takes the form of volunteer cleanups and landfill management.(当然,这意味着目前的清理工作很容易,但这只是把它推迟到以后,那时候它表现为志愿清理和垃圾填埋场管理的形式。)”讲述这些一次性塑料容器最终被志愿者清理或者进入垃圾填埋场,下文“What follows is advice on how to pack such a picnic.( 以下是关于如何打包这样的野餐的建议。)”和下文对建议的具体解释可知,下文提出一些避免塑料垃圾的有效建议,E项“为了避免这种情况,无塑料野餐是一个不错的主意。”符合语境,承上启下。故选E。
22.上文“Using reusable containers is the easiest way to reduce waste.(使用可重复使用的容器是减少浪费最简单的方法。)”讲述使用可重复的容器可以减少浪费,下文“For example, to reduce packaging, you can take along things like a loaf of bread(例如,为了减少包装,你可以随身携带一包面包之类的东西……)”讲述了几种减少包装的方法,G项中的“don’t have to pre-pack everything(不必提前打包)”与之呼应,因此推断G项“此外,请记住,你不必预先打包所有的东西。”符合语境,与上文是递进关系,故选G。
23.下文“Using washable dishes for a picnic does not require much more work than single-use ones.(在野餐时使用可洗的盘子并不需要比一次性使用的盘子做更多的工作。)”可推断出本段主要讲的是塑料盘子并不比可洗的盘子方便,因此推断B项“避免使用塑料盘子。”符合语境,且形式上符合段落小标题的结构。故选B。
24.上文“Forget the single-use, single-serve drink bottles.(忘记那些一次性使用、一次性服务的饮料瓶吧。)”说明不要使用一次性饮料瓶,下文“Fill a large thermos (保温瓶) or personal water bottles with water, juice or lemonade at home. Compared with a single-use plastic cup, they have the added advantage of keeping your drinks colder for longer.(在家里把一个大保温瓶或个人水瓶装满水、果汁或柠檬水。与一次性塑料杯相比,它们还有一个额外的优势,可以让你的饮料保持更长时间的低温。)”建议使用大保温瓶和水瓶装饮料,F项中的“These create a huge amount of waste”是上文使用一次性饮料瓶的结果,下文的建议是对避免这种浪费的做法,因此推断F项“这些都造成大量的浪费,这是很容易避免的。”符合语境,承上启下,these指代上文提到的drink bottles。故选F。
25.上文“They’re perfect for packing sandwiches, dried or whole fruit, and other snack foods. You can use them to pack glasses or plates to prevent breaking. They can also work as a napkin, tea towel, or trash bag if needed. ( 它们非常适合包装三明治、干果或水果以及其他零食。你可以用它们来包装杯子或盘子,以防止破碎。如果需要的话,它们也可以用作餐巾、茶巾或垃圾袋。)”讲述了使用布袋的益处,因此推断携带几个布袋是必要的,C项“一定要在你的野餐篮子里加几个。”符合语境。故选C。

第一节 (共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25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
“Although I have been teaching Hao Hao how to say “mom” every day, he is still unable to say the word. He is now 24 years old,” says Zhao Xinling. Having a child with autism (自闭症), the 64-year-old has worked hard to help her son.
She is the founder and principal of the Loving Home for Children Special Education and Rehabilitation (康复) Center in Guiyang, the first of its kind in Guizhou province. Over the years, she has provided support to more than 7,000 children with autism and witnessed the autistic community flourish — from being under-recognized to being increasingly understood and accepted — and she has seen how the community is gaining more support from society.
Hao Hao, born in 2000, lost his ability to speak at 22 months and was later diagnosed with autism. To learn more, Zhao Xinling visited rehabilitation centers, hospitals, and schools in cities like Beijing and Guangzhou. She met many parents facing similar challenges and realized the heavy pressure on their families. With the help of Dr. Guan Fuqin, a pioneer in autism diagnosis in Guizhou, Zhao established a center in 2003 where children with autism could learn locally, and parents could support each other.
Three years later, Zhao started integrated education. She explained that while the goal used to be helping autistic children adapt to normal life, integrated education also teaches normal children to understand, accept, and care for autistic children. This two-way approach makes life easier for autistic children and their families.
Although there are still many challenges ahead, Zhao is confident about the future, “We need to view autism positively, accept it, and enjoy the different life it offers.”
11. What does the underline word “flourish” mean in paragraph 2?

Feeling burned out and looking for reasons to work less? A new study shows that working nights and volatile (不稳定的) schedules in young adulthood can leave you to suffer from depression and poor health in middle age.
The research examined the work schedules and sleep patterns of more than 7,000 Americans over three decades, from the ages of 22 through 50. To the surprise of the study’s author, New York University professor Wen-Jui Han, only one-quarter of the participants worked traditional daytime hours. The remainder worked variable hours. Those with volatile work schedules reported a greater likelihood of poor health and depression at age 50 than those with more stable schedules.
“Our work now is making us sick and poor,” Han said in an interview. “Work is supposed to allow us to acquire resources. But, for a lot of people, their work doesn’t allow them to do so. They actually become more and more miserable (悲惨的) over time.”
Dr. Alyson Myers, a professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, appreciated the new study’s focus on the connection between work schedules, sleep and poor health. The study findings confirmed what she sees in many of her diabetes (糖尿病) patients, who often get no more than five hours of sleep after they work night shifts.
Many of the participants in Han’s study who had volatile work schedules tended to have part-time jobs, in some cases multiple part-time jobs. “Unfortunately,” Myers said, “the trend for a lot of these people is that they have to work more than one job to survive.”
Han would like her research to promote conversations about ways of providing resources to help people live a happy and healthy life when they’re dog-tired both physically and emotionally because of their work.
14. What does Han’s study mainly tell us?
A.The significance of a healthy lifestyle.
B.The rising trend of working variable hours.
C.The long-term effects of unstable work schedules.
D.Some practical approaches to dealing with depression.
15. What is Myers’s attitude to people with volatile work schedules?
A. Concerned.
B. Indifferent.
C. Doubtful. D. Critical.
16. What is Han’s expectation of her research?
A.To provide resources for the poor.
B.To help improve people’s well-being.
C.To raise awareness of healthy lifestyles.
D.To boost communication between employees.
C
According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels (面板) used has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals. But all of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy, few like large solar panels to be placed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven’t given much thought to what they put under them. Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.
“Solar projects need to be good neighbors,” says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE) project. “They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators (传粉昆虫).
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy. Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use. Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens, businesses, schools, cities—and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction. “These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that’s going on in the landscape,” says Macknick.
17. What do solar developers often ignore?
A.The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D.The most recent advances in solar technology.
18. What does InSPIRE aim to do?
A.Improve the productivity of local farms.
B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.
19. What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To conserve pollinators.
C.To diversify the economy.
B.To restrict solar development.
D.To ensure the supply of energy.
20. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Pollinators: To Leave or to Stay
C.InSPIRE: A Leader in Agriculture
B.Solar Energy: Hope for the Future
D.Solar Farms: A New Development
第二节 七选五(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。
Looking for a fun activity? Pack a picnic and enjoy it with family or friends in a scenic spot. However, a concerning trend is using picnics as an excuse for single-use plastic containers. While it makes cleanup easy initially, it shifts the burden to later volunteer cleanups and landfill management. 21 What follows is advice on how to pack such a picnic.
●Use food containers wisely
Using reusable containers is the easiest way to reduce waste. 22 For example, to reduce packaging, bring items like a loaf of bread, a whole watermelon, uncut vegetables, a knife, and a cutting board. You can prepare them when you’re ready to eat, so no need to pack everything in advance.
● 23
Using washable dishes for a picnic isn’t much harder than single-use ones. Instead of carrying trash, just pack dirty plates in a bag and wash them at home. If you’re worried about breaking, take some solid camping plates.
● Think about the drinks
Forget the single-use, single-serve drink bottles. 24 Fill personal water bottles with water, juice or lemonade at home. Compared with a single-use plastic cup, they have the added advantage of keeping your drinks cold for longer.
● Put cloth bags to good use
Cloth bags are amazing. I use them not just for shopping but also for packing sandwiches, fruits, snacks, and even fragile items like glasses or plates to prevent breakage. They can also serve as napkins, tea towels, or even garbage bags when needed. 25
A.Clean up the waste
B.Avoid plastic plates
C.Be sure to add some of them to your picnic basket.
D.There are some healthy dishes you can make or buy.
E.To prevent this, a plastic-free picnic can be a brilliant idea.
F.These create a huge amount of waste, which can be easily avoided.

Travelling alone can be a little frightening. However, this time is 26 . Last week I had a holiday from work, but all my friends were occupied. Such as it was, I still booked a train ride to Toronto, a city in Canada, and 27 a bed in a hotel for one week.

I enjoyed spending hours in museums that might have seemed dull to my friends. I walked all around the 30 , which some people may have found too exhausting. Instead of 31 someone else to remember directions or to suggest activities to do, I discovered my independence and 32 map-reading skills that I didn’t know I had. Being in the safe environment of a hotel with like-minded 33 also gives a great opportunity to meet new people from all over the world, which can help conquer 34 .

第3节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One afternoon, Emma and I were walking home from school, chatting about our day. Emma, with her curious eyes shining, asked me about my friendship with Lucy. Without thinking, I said, “I only hung out with Lucy because she wanted me to, but I didn’t really want to be friends with her. She was kind of boring.”
Unluckily, I didn’t know Lucy was nearby. When I looked up, she was right there, having heard everything. Her face turned pale, and her eyes got big with surprise. She didn’t say anything and ran off. Emma and I just stood there, feeling bad. I knew I should go after Lucy and say sorry, but I was too shocked to move.
The next days were hard. I felt really bad about what I said and wanted to fix things with Lucy. Even though I didn’t mean to, I hurt Lucy’s feelings. Every time I saw her at school, I looked away quickly.
Then, something interesting happened. On Tuesday, Ms. Julia said we would do pre-class speeches. She had written our topics on small pieces of paper and put them in a box. We had to pick one without knowing what it was. When I reached into the box, I pulled out a paper that said, “Tell your most embarrassing moment.” My heart was beating fast. It felt like I was given a chance to make things right.
I spent the next few days practicing my speech, trying to find the right words to apologize to Lucy. When the day of the speech came, I was still nervous, but I knew it was important to face my mistake. I stood in front of the class, took a deep breath, and began to share my story, hoping it would help me and Lucy move forward.
