Having lived in North America for my entire life, I had certain expectations of restaurants: You go in, peruse the menu, place your order, get your food, eat it, pay, tip, and go on your way. I knew that European countries did not generally participate in tipping culture, but I didn’t understand how that fundamentally altered the entire business interaction. Whenever we finished eating, we would relax with the dishes that we were very obviously done with, chat for a bit, and wait for the bill. Wait, wait, and wait! This happened at every restaurant we went to: After we were done and ready to pay and leave, we would end up waiting twenty or thirty minutes to actually get the bill and pay. We absolutely could not figure it out! The servers seemed to be so attentive to everyone else in the restaurants, the locals, but for the obvious group of tourists, we were just left to wait, wait, and wait! It was actually getting frustrating! I finally figured it out on the last day of our trip, watching the locals. When the locals finished their meals, they would not pay immediately, Instead, they would sit and chat, and just sort of… hang out. They would pay when they were ready to leave, and no one would hustle (催促) them out of there. Because the servers weren’t working for pennies and dependent on tips, they had no reason to move people along. Everyone was allowed to move at their own pace, pay when they were ready to pay, and leave when they were ready to leave. The servers would expect the customers to approach or signal them that they were done, rather than checking every few minutes to get things moving. What a novel experience! I wish we had figured it out sooner. 24．What does the underlined word “peruse” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Glance quickly. B．Read hesitantly. C．Study carefully. D．Changing randomly. 25．Why did the author find the restaurant experience upsetting at first? A．The servers ignored the needy tourists. B．They had to wait too long to pay the bill. C．The food failed to live up to their expectations. D．They were served their food later than expected. 26．How did the locals signal that they were ready to leave? A．They tipped the servers generously. B．They gave the servers a unique gesture. C．They waited for the servers to check on them. D．They called the server to the table when ready. 27．In which column of a news website can we read this text? A．Diet and health. B．Food and culture. C．Sports and fitness. D．Morals and virtues. C A new study led by PhD candidate Ashley Kim and Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light is not only a health concern for humans, it also affects the sleep patterns of honeybees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators (传粉者). “Our research shows just how sensitive honeybees are to changes in their environment, particularly to something as seemingly harmless as artificial light,” said. Kim of the study: “By disturbing their sleep patterns, we see clear evidence of reduced sleep periods. This raises significant concerns, not only for bee health but also for the health of ecosystems that depend on them for pollination.” Honeybees generally prefer to nest in dark environments, although a small-amount of light can enter from the entrance. Sleeping bees typically remain immobile but exhibit certain movements if disturbed by nestmates. Like us, when bees experience a poor night’s sleep, problems in behavior and function emerge. Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of groups of bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the “waggle dance” that informs nestmates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep. Through a series of experiments, researchers compared groups of bees that underwent normal sleep in the dark with others that were subjected to continuous artificial light. The results clearly showed that prolonged (长期的) exposure to light significantly affected the sleep pattern of honeybees, leading to bad behaviors. Among the details described in the paper, bees exposed to continuous light slept less and were more frequently disturbed by other bees compared to those kept in normal darkness. Also, bees exposed to continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages. “Understanding the factors that affect bee health, such as light pollution, is essential for developing strategies to protect pollinator populations. With artificial light increasing, this research throws light on how such disturbances may be harming pollinators.” said Nieh. 28．What effect does artificial light have on bees? A．Changing the color of bees. B．Reducing the number of bees. C．Making bees less sensitive. D．Shortening bees’ sleep time. 29．What can we infer about bees from paragraph 4? A．Sleep is no light matter for bees. B．Bees dance to show the food amount. C．It is easy for bees to have sleep problems. D．Bees have the same sleep habits as humans. 30．What did researchers find in their experiments? A．Long sleep leads to bees’ bad behavior. B．Sleeping bees remain motionless completely. C．Bees under continuous light like darker places. D．Honeybees prefer to nest in bright environments. 31．What is mainly talked about in the text? A．The variety of bees’ sleep pattern. B．The factors that affect bees’ sleep. C．The harm of artificial light on bees. D．The link between pollinators and ecosystems. D Psychologists define motivation as the desire or drive to initiate and maintain a particular behavior, which can be categorized into internal and external motivation. Internal motivation occurs when an activity is seen as an end in itself, such as playing video games, because the experience itself is enjoyable or meaningful. External motivation, on the other hand, involves pursuing a task as a means to an end, like visiting the dentist for healthy teeth, where the reward comes later. While external rewards, such as payment, may seem appealing, their effectiveness can be short-lived. A 2017 study found that people who focused too much on outcomes were less likely to stick to their New Year’s resolutions. Research shows that high levels of internal motivation are more likely to sustain long-term engagement. However, daily actions are rarely driven by purely internal or external factors. For example, studying history may be internally motivated by curiosity about ancient Egypt, but external factors like grades or family pressure can also play a role. However, having multiple motivators isn’t always beneficial. A study of military staff found that those driven by both internal factors, such as the pursuit of self-improvement, and external factors, like the desire for a well-paying job, were less motivated overall than those driven by just one factor. Psychologists call this the over-justification effect, where additional external motivators can undermine existing internal drive. For students preparing for exams, understanding the balance between internal and external motivation is crucial for maintaining focus and avoiding burnout. Learning requires both personal interest and external goals, but over-reliance on external rewards can weaken internal motivation, reducing efficiency. Therefore, finding a balance between internal and external motivators is key to maintaining long-term focus. In conclusion, maintaining motivation is a dynamic process that requires careful management of both personal interest and external goals. Students should develop their internal motivation while using external rewards strategically to support their long-term focus and success. 32．What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about? A．The classification of stress. B．The definition of motivation. C．The meaning of achievements. D．The significance of experiences. 33．What is a feature of external motivation according to the text? A．It ignores the final result. B．It leads to steady progress. C．It determines daily choices. D．It tends to weaken over time. 34．What does the author suggest readers do with multiple motivators? A．Boost them equally. B．Favor external factors. C．Depend only on one. D．Manage them wisely. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Balancing Internal and External Drive. B．Understanding Personal and External Needs. C．Managing Self-Driven and Goal-Directed Tasks. D．Exploring Psychological and Behavioral Aspects. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Your identity is who or what you are and what you do. Just as the things you do, such as following popular fashion, create your identity, the things you read do too. Books, magazines or even websites you frequently read or visit influence the way you think and what you believe in. 36 For example, if you had read that littering kills the earth and contributes to pollution and that has convinced you, you will believe that littering is bad. Therefore, you will not litter. This is the message you will spread to the people around you. This will in turn cause the world around you to see you as someone who loves the earth and you will not litter no matter where you go. 37 Research has shown that reading also affects the way you interacts with people around you. Reading fiction makes you more empathetic (共情的) to the lives around you. This is because reading stories leads you to imagine situations, and this makes you understand others better. 38 You become less self-centred and more caring. People start seeing you as someone who is merciful, and that becomes part of your identity. 39 What is more important, though, is that you engage in intentional reading, paying close attention to what you feed your mind. Read autobiographies or biographies of people who inspire you if you want to be more like them. 40 If you want to be a songwriter, read more poetry! So, go on. Pick up a book today and read. A new you awaits you. A．You’d better select a book that is suitable for you. B．This becomes part of your identity — an earth-lover. C．The things you believe in, then, determine the things you do. D．If you want to be a productive writer, read more fiction books. E．This is because reading plays an important role in shaping your identity. F．Therefore, it enables you to be more tolerant and accepting of differences. G．It is important to read as it affects you to a large extent, creating your identity. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Explorer Lucy Shepherd and her team completed a 253-mile walk across the Amazon’s Kanuku Mountains in 50 days.

He told me about a hidden lake that was on top of a mountain nearby. Seeing that the lake was one of his long-held desires, I decided to take the 10-mile round trip hike with him. However, I experienced a moment of panic because I didn’t know if I had the capacity to make it. I had neither exercised regularly by myself nor signed up for fitness classes. I even fell into the mindset that as I was getting older, it was only natural for to have less energy and motivation to try new things. Early the next morning, before we started our climb, I turned to my husband and said, “I’m really anxious about this, but I’m ready to give it a shot.” He smiled at me and replied, “We’ll proceed cautiously, and you’ll excel yourself.” Instantly, I knew it would be hard to reach the top of the mountain. About halfway up, we encountered a disheartened couple who had abandoned their attempt to reach the lake. Observing the evident disappointment on the husband’s face, I resolved to press on regardless of difficulties. Strangely, as we walked, I found myself appreciating the beauty of the area and engaging in our conversation. What initially seemed like an unattainable goal became a source of fulfillment (成就感). As the day progressed and the path became more challenging, I could sense that my husband was growing concerned about our timing. “We need to pick up our pace if we want to get down before dark,” he said. We had to get off the mountain before dark, or we would have to find shelter from the cold and the animals in the area. We quickened our pace, and finally, we reached the peak. How attractive the hidden lake was! Birds were singing in the trees as if they were welcoming us. The water was as still as a mirror, reflecting perfect peace. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Soon, it was time to start our way down the mountain. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next few days, I noticed that I began to change. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 12 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高二下学期期中模拟卷 英语·参考答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B A B C A A B B C C 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 B C C B A C A C B A 第二部分 阅读理解（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） 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 A C B C B D B D A C 题号 31 32 33 34 35 答案 C B D D A 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36 37 38 39 40 C B F G D 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 B C A A C D B B C A 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 D B A C D 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56．was made 57．and 58．marking 59．prayers 60．features 61．associated 62．down 63．who 64．recognition 65．a 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 (满分15分) 66．Dear Frank, Our school’s science and technology innovation club is planning its first activity this year, which focuses on the newly released domestic AI large model DeepSeek on January 20, 2025.

Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) Soon, it was time to start our way down the mountain. As a saying goes, “It’s easy to climb up a hill but hard to climb down.” For me, both were difficult. As we made our way, my legs were trembling. My husband encouraged me again, saying,” You’re amazing, honey. We’re almost there.” The path was steep, and small stones rolled under our feet. Despite feeling tired, I didn’t complain. Instead, I directed my attention to the picturesque scenery unfolding around us. Upon reaching the base, I let out a sigh of relief. It was unbelievable that we could conquer this demanding hike. Over the next few days, I noticed that I began to change. I realized that age was just a number, and my limits were not as fixed as I had thought. I started to sign up for fitness classes, eager to get stronger. My husband witnessed my change. He said, “You used to be so afraid of trying new things, but now you’re willing to embrace every opportunity.” As he said, I began planning more adventures, like rock-climbing and long-distance cycling. This hike not only led me to a beautiful lake but also to a more athletic version of myself. 1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$2024-2025学年高二下学期期中模拟卷 峰在养师用详腾理城冷什养，出明色电希动使厚定区性的将多无验 英语·答题卡 是四都分作〔其两节，端冷每分) 宽一节（裤分13分） 华条形民 0 0 0 0 0 0 07 1 1 诺爽事项 23 23 23 23 2 3 23 23 4 4 234 4 4 012345678 生先将自己的姓名 准证号辉城清是并 真检立查考员所贴的条妈 之全使用B笔填 56 5 5 5 5 色字建荟字第填属，军体工整 67 8 67 87 567 5 6 的高南无数，在草纸、试春上作答无效 L十清不更折县，不弄，，不准月 8 8 8 5678 8 支展、纸刀 9 迷择题（请用2B铅笔填涂） 11411B11C s1AIF■1fC1 口41IIIC1 161s1H01c IAJBIICI 1IAlIBIICI 日【A1H1C1 171A11B11Ct JIA1I1川c 。IAI■IICI D IAIIMIICI 1w14111c1 Yours. 4IAll8IiCI 91AI●1IC1 141A1H11C1 191411811c1 5I411B11c1 10441HI1 BIAIIBIICI (AIIBIICI H IAIIRIICHDI 6IA1H8Hg1川D 31141IC1I01 61A1B11C1D11g1川F1101 1AIIBIICHIDI 2”1A1181C111 刀【A1H1C1D1371A11B11Ct11K11r11G1 单二节（端分经分） 台1A目HC1开 81 AIBIICI叫 IAIIRIICJIBI 1AHHIICIDIIEIIF]ICI 241AII●1 ICHDI 9141I1C1ID 3EAIIDIICIIDI 71A1 IICHDIIK1I1IG可 So3机t满me每时等k海nhw育on由n 251ABtC1D川 041a1HC111 5【411IC1D1 D141H11CtD111川11a 4:1AI●IC1D 614111川G11D SLAIIBIICIDI 知1ABC1D 力141售HC11叫 IAIIBIICIIDI IAITRIICHIPI w141HC11 S 1AIIBIICHOI 阳 4H1A目SHC1IDI 1411sHC11D1 MIAIIBIICIIDI 4514IaC11D可 01s1IHC1D时 %141111C1ID 非选择题（请在客试题的答题区内作答） 第豆厚分销超用《共两节，满分3排分】 第二节（其山小烟：蜂小赠15分，满分体分） 57 58 令 63 65 线在客题目销等国城内作%，进色达形K城养辉室上效： W春题目n养网区城内作的：，里A飞建×城角等案L效！ 川 美行第2真来4氨) 裤在春题目的特城内府等，短量色区海隆飞城的养乳无绘！ Cver the nest few danys.I notieed that I began to chonge 请勿在此区域内作答 或者做任何标记 裤在各慧目销附框南与由餐学色影形左限山长城方香案上滴1 语算4页（共4风司 ( ………………○……………… 外 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ) ( ………………○……………… 内 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ) ( 此卷只装订 不密封 ) ( ………………○……………… 内 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ………………○……………… 外 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… … 学校： ______________ 姓名： _____________ 班级： _______________ 考号： ______________________ ) 绝密★考试结束前 2024-2025学年高二下学期期中模拟卷 英语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．测试范围： 选择性必修第三册Units 4-6（外研版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） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What will the woman do this morning?

Having lived in North America for my entire life, I had certain expectations of restaurants: You go in, peruse the menu, place your order, get your food, eat it, pay, tip, and go on your way. I knew that European countries did not generally participate in tipping culture, but I didn’t understand how that fundamentally altered the entire business interaction. Whenever we finished eating, we would relax with the dishes that we were very obviously done with, chat for a bit, and wait for the bill. Wait, wait, and wait! This happened at every restaurant we went to: After we were done and ready to pay and leave, we would end up waiting twenty or thirty minutes to actually get the bill and pay. We absolutely could not figure it out! The servers seemed to be so attentive to everyone else in the restaurants, the locals, but for the obvious group of tourists, we were just left to wait, wait, and wait! It was actually getting frustrating! I finally figured it out on the last day of our trip, watching the locals. When the locals finished their meals, they would not pay immediately, Instead, they would sit and chat, and just sort of… hang out. They would pay when they were ready to leave, and no one would hustle (催促) them out of there. Because the servers weren’t working for pennies and dependent on tips, they had no reason to move people along. Everyone was allowed to move at their own pace, pay when they were ready to pay, and leave when they were ready to leave. The servers would expect the customers to approach or signal them that they were done, rather than checking every few minutes to get things moving. What a novel experience! I wish we had figured it out sooner. 24．What does the underlined word “peruse” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Glance quickly. B．Read hesitantly. C．Study carefully. D．Changing randomly. 25．Why did the author find the restaurant experience upsetting at first? A．The servers ignored the needy tourists. B．They had to wait too long to pay the bill. C．The food failed to live up to their expectations. D．They were served their food later than expected. 26．How did the locals signal that they were ready to leave? A．They tipped the servers generously. B．They gave the servers a unique gesture. C．They waited for the servers to check on them. D．They called the server to the table when ready. 27．In which column of a news website can we read this text? A．Diet and health. B．Food and culture. C．Sports and fitness. D．Morals and virtues. C A new study led by PhD candidate Ashley Kim and Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light is not only a health concern for humans, it also affects the sleep patterns of honeybees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators (传粉者). “Our research shows just how sensitive honeybees are to changes in their environment, particularly to something as seemingly harmless as artificial light,” said. Kim of the study: “By disturbing their sleep patterns, we see clear evidence of reduced sleep periods. This raises significant concerns, not only for bee health but also for the health of ecosystems that depend on them for pollination.” Honeybees generally prefer to nest in dark environments, although a small-amount of light can enter from the entrance. Sleeping bees typically remain immobile but exhibit certain movements if disturbed by nestmates. Like us, when bees experience a poor night’s sleep, problems in behavior and function emerge. Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of groups of bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the “waggle dance” that informs nestmates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep. Through a series of experiments, researchers compared groups of bees that underwent normal sleep in the dark with others that were subjected to continuous artificial light. The results clearly showed that prolonged (长期的) exposure to light significantly affected the sleep pattern of honeybees, leading to bad behaviors. Among the details described in the paper, bees exposed to continuous light slept less and were more frequently disturbed by other bees compared to those kept in normal darkness. Also, bees exposed to continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages. “Understanding the factors that affect bee health, such as light pollution, is essential for developing strategies to protect pollinator populations. With artificial light increasing, this research throws light on how such disturbances may be harming pollinators.” said Nieh. 28．What effect does artificial light have on bees? A．Changing the color of bees. B．Reducing the number of bees. C．Making bees less sensitive. D．Shortening bees’ sleep time. 29．What can we infer about bees from paragraph 4? A．Sleep is no light matter for bees. B．Bees dance to show the food amount. C．It is easy for bees to have sleep problems. D．Bees have the same sleep habits as humans. 30．What did researchers find in their experiments? A．Long sleep leads to bees’ bad behavior. B．Sleeping bees remain motionless completely. C．Bees under continuous light like darker places. D．Honeybees prefer to nest in bright environments. 31．What is mainly talked about in the text? A．The variety of bees’ sleep pattern. B．The factors that affect bees’ sleep. C．The harm of artificial light on bees. D．The link between pollinators and ecosystems. D Psychologists define motivation as the desire or drive to initiate and maintain a particular behavior, which can be categorized into internal and external motivation. Internal motivation occurs when an activity is seen as an end in itself, such as playing video games, because the experience itself is enjoyable or meaningful. External motivation, on the other hand, involves pursuing a task as a means to an end, like visiting the dentist for healthy teeth, where the reward comes later. While external rewards, such as payment, may seem appealing, their effectiveness can be short-lived. A 2017 study found that people who focused too much on outcomes were less likely to stick to their New Year’s resolutions. Research shows that high levels of internal motivation are more likely to sustain long-term engagement. However, daily actions are rarely driven by purely internal or external factors. For example, studying history may be internally motivated by curiosity about ancient Egypt, but external factors like grades or family pressure can also play a role. However, having multiple motivators isn’t always beneficial. A study of military staff found that those driven by both internal factors, such as the pursuit of self-improvement, and external factors, like the desire for a well-paying job, were less motivated overall than those driven by just one factor. Psychologists call this the over-justification effect, where additional external motivators can undermine existing internal drive. For students preparing for exams, understanding the balance between internal and external motivation is crucial for maintaining focus and avoiding burnout. Learning requires both personal interest and external goals, but over-reliance on external rewards can weaken internal motivation, reducing efficiency. Therefore, finding a balance between internal and external motivators is key to maintaining long-term focus. In conclusion, maintaining motivation is a dynamic process that requires careful management of both personal interest and external goals. Students should develop their internal motivation while using external rewards strategically to support their long-term focus and success. 32．What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about? A．The classification of stress. B．The definition of motivation. C．The meaning of achievements. D．The significance of experiences. 33．What is a feature of external motivation according to the text? A．It ignores the final result. B．It leads to steady progress. C．It determines daily choices. D．It tends to weaken over time. 34．What does the author suggest readers do with multiple motivators? A．Boost them equally. B．Favor external factors. C．Depend only on one. D．Manage them wisely. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Balancing Internal and External Drive. B．Understanding Personal and External Needs. C．Managing Self-Driven and Goal-Directed Tasks. D．Exploring Psychological and Behavioral Aspects. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Your identity is who or what you are and what you do. Just as the things you do, such as following popular fashion, create your identity, the things you read do too. Books, magazines or even websites you frequently read or visit influence the way you think and what you believe in. 36 For example, if you had read that littering kills the earth and contributes to pollution and that has convinced you, you will believe that littering is bad. Therefore, you will not litter. This is the message you will spread to the people around you. This will in turn cause the world around you to see you as someone who loves the earth and you will not litter no matter where you go. 37 Research has shown that reading also affects the way you interacts with people around you. Reading fiction makes you more empathetic (共情的) to the lives around you. This is because reading stories leads you to imagine situations, and this makes you understand others better. 38 You become less self-centred and more caring. People start seeing you as someone who is merciful, and that becomes part of your identity. 39 What is more important, though, is that you engage in intentional reading, paying close attention to what you feed your mind. Read autobiographies or biographies of people who inspire you if you want to be more like them. 40 If you want to be a songwriter, read more poetry! So, go on. Pick up a book today and read. A new you awaits you. A．You’d better select a book that is suitable for you. B．This becomes part of your identity — an earth-lover. C．The things you believe in, then, determine the things you do. D．If you want to be a productive writer, read more fiction books. E．This is because reading plays an important role in shaping your identity. F．Therefore, it enables you to be more tolerant and accepting of differences. G．It is important to read as it affects you to a large extent, creating your identity. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Explorer Lucy Shepherd and her team completed a 253-mile walk across the Amazon’s Kanuku Mountains in 50 days.

He told me about a hidden lake that was on top of a mountain nearby. Seeing that the lake was one of his long-held desires, I decided to take the 10-mile round trip hike with him. However, I experienced a moment of panic because I didn’t know if I had the capacity to make it. I had neither exercised regularly by myself nor signed up for fitness classes. I even fell into the mindset that as I was getting older, it was only natural for to have less energy and motivation to try new things. Early the next morning, before we started our climb, I turned to my husband and said, “I’m really anxious about this, but I’m ready to give it a shot.” He smiled at me and replied, “We’ll proceed cautiously, and you’ll excel yourself.” Instantly, I knew it would be hard to reach the top of the mountain. About halfway up, we encountered a disheartened couple who had abandoned their attempt to reach the lake. Observing the evident disappointment on the husband’s face, I resolved to press on regardless of difficulties. Strangely, as we walked, I found myself appreciating the beauty of the area and engaging in our conversation. What initially seemed like an unattainable goal became a source of fulfillment (成就感). As the day progressed and the path became more challenging, I could sense that my husband was growing concerned about our timing. “We need to pick up our pace if we want to get down before dark,” he said. We had to get off the mountain before dark, or we would have to find shelter from the cold and the animals in the area. We quickened our pace, and finally, we reached the peak. How attractive the hidden lake was! Birds were singing in the trees as if they were welcoming us. The water was as still as a mirror, reflecting perfect peace. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Soon, it was time to start our way down the mountain. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next few days, I noticed that I began to change. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第7页（共8页） 试题 第8页（共8页） 试题 第5页（共8页） 试题 第6页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★考试结束前 2024-2025学年高二下学期期中模拟卷 英语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．测试范围： 选择性必修第三册Units 4-6（外研版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） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What will the woman do this morning?

I was with my in-laws and my wife, and naturally, we went to restaurants whenever we were hungry. Having lived in North America for my entire life, I had certain expectations of restaurants: You go in, peruse the menu, place your order, get your food, eat it, pay, tip, and go on your way. I knew that European countries did not generally participate in tipping culture, but I didn’t understand how that fundamentally altered the entire business interaction. Whenever we finished eating, we would relax with the dishes that we were very obviously done with, chat for a bit, and wait for the bill. Wait, wait, and wait! This happened at every restaurant we went to: After we were done and ready to pay and leave, we would end up waiting twenty or thirty minutes to actually get the bill and pay. We absolutely could not figure it out! The servers seemed to be so attentive to everyone else in the restaurants, the locals, but for the obvious group of tourists, we were just left to wait, wait, and wait! It was actually getting frustrating! I finally figured it out on the last day of our trip, watching the locals. When the locals finished their meals, they would not pay immediately, Instead, they would sit and chat, and just sort of… hang out. They would pay when they were ready to leave, and no one would hustle (催促) them out of there. Because the servers weren’t working for pennies and dependent on tips, they had no reason to move people along. Everyone was allowed to move at their own pace, pay when they were ready to pay, and leave when they were ready to leave. The servers would expect the customers to approach or signal them that they were done, rather than checking every few minutes to get things moving. What a novel experience! I wish we had figured it out sooner. 24．What does the underlined word “peruse” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Glance quickly. B．Read hesitantly. C．Study carefully. D．Changing randomly. 25．Why did the author find the restaurant experience upsetting at first? A．The servers ignored the needy tourists. B．They had to wait too long to pay the bill. C．The food failed to live up to their expectations. D．They were served their food later than expected. 26．How did the locals signal that they were ready to leave? A．They tipped the servers generously. B．They gave the servers a unique gesture. C．They waited for the servers to check on them. D．They called the server to the table when ready. 27．In which column of a news website can we read this text? A．Diet and health. B．Food and culture. C．Sports and fitness. D．Morals and virtues. 【答案】24．C 25．B 26．D 27．B 【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在希腊旅游时，因为没有了解当地的风俗习惯而体验感不佳，直到最后一天才明白他们的用餐习俗。 24．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Having lived in North America for my entire life, I had certain expectations of restaurants(我在北美生活了一辈子，所以我对餐馆有一定的期望)”以及后文“the menu, place your order, get your food, eat it, pay, tip, and go on your way(菜单，点餐，拿食物，吃，付钱，给小费，然后离开)”可知，进入餐厅点餐之前，人们通常会先仔细研究菜单，再根据自己的需求点餐，故划线词意思是“仔细阅读”。故选C。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“After we were done and ready to pay and leave, we would end up waiting twenty or thirty minutes to actually get the bill and pay. We absolutely could not figure it out! The servers seemed to be so attentive to everyone else in the restaurants, the locals, but for the obvious group of tourists, we were just left to wait, wait, and wait! It was actually getting frustrating!(当我们结账准备离开时，我们要等上二三十分钟才能拿到账单并付款。我们实在弄不明白是怎么回事！服务员似乎对餐馆里的其他人，当地人都很关心，除了游客群体，我们只能等，等，等！这真的让人很沮丧！)”可知，作者一开始觉得餐馆的经历令人不快是因为他们等了太久才付账。故选B。 26．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The servers would expect the customers to approach or signal them that they were done, rather than checking every few minutes to get things moving.(服务人员希望顾客去找他们或向他们发出信号，表示他们已经完成了，而不是每隔几分钟他们就去查看一下顾客的用餐情况)”可知，当地人准备离开时会准备好了然后叫服务员过来。故选D。 27．推理判断题。根据第一段“I recently went on my first overseas vacation to Greece. I was with my in-laws and my wife, and naturally, we went to restaurants whenever we were hungry.(最近我第一次出国度假去了希腊。我和我的岳父岳母和妻子在一起，自然，我们饿了就去餐馆吃饭)”以及文章主要讲述作者在希腊旅游时，因为没有了解当地的风俗习惯而体验感不佳，直到最后一天才明白他们的用餐习俗。由此推知，我们可以在新闻网站的“食物和文化”栏目读到这篇文章。故选B。 C A new study led by PhD candidate Ashley Kim and Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light is not only a health concern for humans, it also affects the sleep patterns of honeybees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators (传粉者). “Our research shows just how sensitive honeybees are to changes in their environment, particularly to something as seemingly harmless as artificial light,” said. Kim of the study: “By disturbing their sleep patterns, we see clear evidence of reduced sleep periods. This raises significant concerns, not only for bee health but also for the health of ecosystems that depend on them for pollination.” Honeybees generally prefer to nest in dark environments, although a small-amount of light can enter from the entrance. Sleeping bees typically remain immobile but exhibit certain movements if disturbed by nestmates. Like us, when bees experience a poor night’s sleep, problems in behavior and function emerge. Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of groups of bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the “waggle dance” that informs nestmates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep. Through a series of experiments, researchers compared groups of bees that underwent normal sleep in the dark with others that were subjected to continuous artificial light. The results clearly showed that prolonged (长期的) exposure to light significantly affected the sleep pattern of honeybees, leading to bad behaviors. Among the details described in the paper, bees exposed to continuous light slept less and were more frequently disturbed by other bees compared to those kept in normal darkness. Also, bees exposed to continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages. “Understanding the factors that affect bee health, such as light pollution, is essential for developing strategies to protect pollinator populations. With artificial light increasing, this research throws light on how such disturbances may be harming pollinators.” said Nieh. 28．What effect does artificial light have on bees? A．Changing the color of bees. B．Reducing the number of bees. C．Making bees less sensitive. D．Shortening bees’ sleep time. 29．What can we infer about bees from paragraph 4? A．Sleep is no light matter for bees. B．Bees dance to show the food amount. C．It is easy for bees to have sleep problems. D．Bees have the same sleep habits as humans. 30．What did researchers find in their experiments? A．Long sleep leads to bees’ bad behavior. B．Sleeping bees remain motionless completely. C．Bees under continuous light like darker places. D．Honeybees prefer to nest in bright environments. 31．What is mainly talked about in the text? A．The variety of bees’ sleep pattern. B．The factors that affect bees’ sleep. C．The harm of artificial light on bees. D．The link between pollinators and ecosystems. 【答案】28．D 29．A 30．C 31．C 【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人造光对蜜蜂睡眠模式的影响以及带来的危害。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段“By disturbing their sleep patterns, we see clear evidence of reduced sleep periods.(通过干扰他们的睡眠模式，我们看到了睡眠时间减少的明显证据)” 可知，人造光会缩短蜜蜂的睡眠时间。故选D。 29．推理判断题。根据第四段“Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of groups of bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the “waggle dance” that informs nestmates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep.(睡眠对一群蜜蜂的健康和适应至关重要，因为它们依赖于一种被称为“摇摆舞”的复杂交流系统，该系统将环境中食物来源的位置告知筑巢同伴。因此如果它们没有得到足够的睡眠，蜜蜂的舞蹈更差，它们就不能很好地交流)”可知，睡眠对蜜蜂很重要，故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Also, bees exposed to continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages.(此外，暴露在持续光线下的蜜蜂表现出对实验笼中较暗区域的偏好)”可知，研究人员在实验中发现，持续暴露在人造光下的蜜蜂喜欢较暗的地方，故选C。 31．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study led by PhD candidate Ashley Kim and Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light is not only a health concern for humans, it also affects the sleep, patterns of honeybees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators (传粉者).(由博士候选人Ashley Kim和James Nieh教授领导的一项新研究发现，人造光不仅会影响人类的健康，还会影响蜜蜂的睡眠和模式，并对它们作为传粉者的重要作用构成威胁)”以及文章主要讲述了人造光对蜜蜂睡眠模式的影响以及带来的危害可知，C选项“人造光对蜜蜂的危害”符合文章主旨。故选C。 D Psychologists define motivation as the desire or drive to initiate and maintain a particular behavior, which can be categorized into internal and external motivation. Internal motivation occurs when an activity is seen as an end in itself, such as playing video games, because the experience itself is enjoyable or meaningful. External motivation, on the other hand, involves pursuing a task as a means to an end, like visiting the dentist for healthy teeth, where the reward comes later. While external rewards, such as payment, may seem appealing, their effectiveness can be short-lived. A 2017 study found that people who focused too much on outcomes were less likely to stick to their New Year’s resolutions. Research shows that high levels of internal motivation are more likely to sustain long-term engagement. However, daily actions are rarely driven by purely internal or external factors. For example, studying history may be internally motivated by curiosity about ancient Egypt, but external factors like grades or family pressure can also play a role. However, having multiple motivators isn’t always beneficial. A study of military staff found that those driven by both internal factors, such as the pursuit of self-improvement, and external factors, like the desire for a well-paying job, were less motivated overall than those driven by just one factor. Psychologists call this the over-justification effect, where additional external motivators can undermine existing internal drive. For students preparing for exams, understanding the balance between internal and external motivation is crucial for maintaining focus and avoiding burnout. Learning requires both personal interest and external goals, but over-reliance on external rewards can weaken internal motivation, reducing efficiency. Therefore, finding a balance between internal and external motivators is key to maintaining long-term focus. In conclusion, maintaining motivation is a dynamic process that requires careful management of both personal interest and external goals. Students should develop their internal motivation while using external rewards strategically to support their long-term focus and success. 32．What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about? A．The classification of stress. B．The definition of motivation. C．The meaning of achievements. D．The significance of experiences. 33．What is a feature of external motivation according to the text? A．It ignores the final result. B．It leads to steady progress. C．It determines daily choices. D．It tends to weaken over time. 34．What does the author suggest readers do with multiple motivators? A．Boost them equally. B．Favor external factors. C．Depend only on one. D．Manage them wisely. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Balancing Internal and External Drive. B．Understanding Personal and External Needs. C．Managing Self-Driven and Goal-Directed Tasks. D．Exploring Psychological and Behavioral Aspects. 【答案】32．B 33．D 34．D 35．A 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕“动机”这一主题，详细介绍了内部动机和外部动机的定义、特点、相互关系以及对学生学习的影响，强调保持动机需要平衡个人兴趣和外在目标，学生应合理培养和利用动机。 32．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Psychologists define motivation as the desire or drive to initiate and maintain a particular behavior, which can be categorized into internal and external motivation. Internal motivation occurs when an activity is seen as an end in itself, such as playing video games, because the experience itself is enjoyable or meaningful. External motivation, on the other hand, involves pursuing a task as a means to an end, like visiting the dentist for healthy teeth, where the reward comes later.(心理学家将动机定义为发起并维持某种特定行为的欲望或驱动力，动机可分为内在动机和外在动机。当一项活动本身被视为目的时，就产生了内在动机，比如玩电子游戏，因为这种体验本身是令人愉快或有意义的。另一方面，外在动机则涉及将完成一项任务作为达到某种目的的手段，例如为了拥有健康的牙齿而去看牙医，在这种情况下，奖励是在之后才会出现的。)”可知，第一段首先指出心理学家对动机的定义，接着分别对内在动机和外在动机进行了具体解释。所以第一段主要谈论的是动机的定义。故选B。 33．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“While external rewards, such as payment, may seem appealing, their effectiveness can be short-lived.(虽然外在奖励，比如金钱报酬，可能看起来很有吸引力，但它们的效果往往是短暂的)”可知，外在动机的效果是短暂的，会随着时间减弱。故选D。 34．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“In conclusion, maintaining motivation is a dynamic process that requires careful management of both personal interest and external goals.(总之，保持动机是一个动态的过程，需要仔细平衡个人兴趣和外在目标)”可知，保持动机是一个动态的过程，需要仔细平衡个人兴趣和外在目标，也就是要明智地管理多种动机。故选D。 35．主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇介绍了内在动机和外在动机的定义，接着阐述了外在动机效果短暂，内在动机更能维持长期投入，还指出多种动机可能产生的过度合理化效应，随后强调对于学生而言平衡内在和外在动机对保持专注和避免倦怠的重要性，最后总结要平衡个人兴趣（内在动机）和外在目标（外在动机）。全文围绕如何平衡内在动机和外在动机展开，选项A“Balancing Internal and External Drive(平衡内在和外在驱动力)”符合文章主旨。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Your identity is who or what you are and what you do. Just as the things you do, such as following popular fashion, create your identity, the things you read do too. Books, magazines or even websites you frequently read or visit influence the way you think and what you believe in. 36 For example, if you had read that littering kills the earth and contributes to pollution and that has convinced you, you will believe that littering is bad. Therefore, you will not litter. This is the message you will spread to the people around you. This will in turn cause the world around you to see you as someone who loves the earth and you will not litter no matter where you go. 37 Research has shown that reading also affects the way you interacts with people around you. Reading fiction makes you more empathetic (共情的) to the lives around you. This is because reading stories leads you to imagine situations, and this makes you understand others better. 38 You become less self-centred and more caring. People start seeing you as someone who is merciful, and that becomes part of your identity. 39 What is more important, though, is that you engage in intentional reading, paying close attention to what you feed your mind. Read autobiographies or biographies of people who inspire you if you want to be more like them. 40 If you want to be a songwriter, read more poetry! So, go on. Pick up a book today and read. A new you awaits you. A．You’d better select a book that is suitable for you. B．This becomes part of your identity — an earth-lover. C．The things you believe in, then, determine the things you do. D．If you want to be a productive writer, read more fiction books. E．This is because reading plays an important role in shaping your identity. F．Therefore, it enables you to be more tolerant and accepting of differences. G．It is important to read as it affects you to a large extent, creating your identity. 【答案】36．C 37．B 38．F 39．G 40．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是阅读对个人身份和行为的塑造作用。 36．空后“For example, if you had read that littering kills the earth and contributes to pollution and that has convinced you, you will believe that littering is bad. Therefore, you will not litter.(例如，如果你读到乱扔垃圾会杀死地球，造成污染，这让你信服，你就会相信乱扔垃圾是不好的。因此，你不会乱扔垃圾)”举例说明你读到扔垃圾不好，你就不会扔垃圾，这说明你读的东西会影响你的做法，C选项“The things you believe in, then, determine the things you do.(你所相信的事情，决定了你所做的事情)”引起下文，符合语境，故选C。 37．空前“This will in turn cause the world around you to see you as someone who loves the earth and you will not litter no matter where you go.(这反过来会让你周围的世界看到你是一个热爱地球的人，无论你去哪里都不会乱扔垃圾)”说明你是热爱地球的人，空格处应该和热爱地球的人有关，B选项“This becomes part of your identity — an earth-lover.(这成为你身份的一部分——一个热爱地球的人)”说明了你成为了一个热爱地球的人，承接上文，符合语境，故选B。 38．空前“Reading fiction makes you more empathetic (共情的) to the lives around you. This is because reading stories leads you to imagine situations, and this makes you understand others better.(阅读小说能让你对周围的生活更感同身受。这是因为阅读故事会引导你想象情境，从而使你更好地理解他人)”说明了阅读让你更好地理解他人，空格处应该说更理解他人了以后你会有什么变化，F选项“Therefore, it enables you to be more tolerant and accepting of differences.(因此，它使你更加宽容和接受差异)”说明会更理解他人，承接上文，符合语境，故选F。 39．空后“What is more important, though, is that you engage in intentional reading, paying close attention to what you feed your mind. Read autobiographies or biographies of people who inspire you if you want to be more like them.(然而，更重要的是，你要进行有意识的阅读，密切关注你给你的大脑提供的东西。如果你想变得更像他们，那就读读那些激励过你的人的自传或传记)”说明了重要的是要进行有意识的阅读，空格处应该说阅读是重要的，G选项“It is important to read as it affects you to a large extent, creating your identity.(阅读很重要，因为它在很大程度上影响你，塑造你的身份)”说明了阅读是重要的，引起下文，符合语境，故选G。 40．空后“If you want to be a songwriter, read more poetry!(如果你想成为词曲作者，那就多读些诗吧！)”说明了如果你想成为词曲作者，那就多读些诗，空格处也应该是举例说如果你想成为什么人，就读相关的什么书，D选项“If you want to be a productive writer, read more fiction books.(如果你想成为一个多产的作家，多读些小说吧)”在句式上和空后句子相同，符合语境，故选D。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Explorer Lucy Shepherd and her team completed a 253-mile walk across the Amazon’s Kanuku Mountains in 50 days.

Ms Shepherd 43 the challenge in the hope of highlighting the 44 deforestation of the Amazon and the need to protect wildlife areas. For 17 days of the mission the group travelled without seeing 45 , due to the density of the jungle’s covering.

Seeing that the lake was one of his long-held desires, I decided to take the 10-mile round trip hike with him. However, I experienced a moment of panic because I didn’t know if I had the capacity to make it. I had neither exercised regularly by myself nor signed up for fitness classes. I even fell into the mindset that as I was getting older, it was only natural for to have less energy and motivation to try new things. Early the next morning, before we started our climb, I turned to my husband and said, “I’m really anxious about this, but I’m ready to give it a shot.” He smiled at me and replied, “We’ll proceed cautiously, and you’ll excel yourself.” Instantly, I knew it would be hard to reach the top of the mountain. About halfway up, we encountered a disheartened couple who had abandoned their attempt to reach the lake. Observing the evident disappointment on the husband’s face, I resolved to press on regardless of difficulties. Strangely, as we walked, I found myself appreciating the beauty of the area and engaging in our conversation. What initially seemed like an unattainable goal became a source of fulfillment (成就感). As the day progressed and the path became more challenging, I could sense that my husband was growing concerned about our timing. “We need to pick up our pace if we want to get down before dark,” he said. We had to get off the mountain before dark, or we would have to find shelter from the cold and the animals in the area. We quickened our pace, and finally, we reached the peak. How attractive the hidden lake was! Birds were singing in the trees as if they were welcoming us. The water was as still as a mirror, reflecting perfect peace. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Soon, it was time to start our way down the mountain. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next few days, I noticed that I began to change. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Soon, it was time to start our way down the mountain. As a saying goes, “It’s easy to climb up a hill but hard to climb down.” For me, both were difficult. As we made our way, my legs were trembling. My husband encouraged me again, saying,” You’re amazing, honey. We’re almost there.” The path was steep, and small stones rolled under our feet. Despite feeling tired, I didn’t complain. Instead, I directed my attention to the picturesque scenery unfolding around us. Upon reaching the base, I let out a sigh of relief. It was unbelievable that we could conquer this demanding hike. Over the next few days, I noticed that I began to change. I realized that age was just a number, and my limits were not as fixed as I had thought. I started to sign up for fitness classes, eager to get stronger. My husband witnessed my change. He said, “You used to be so afraid of trying new things, but now you’re willing to embrace every opportunity.” As he said, I began planning more adventures, like rock-climbing and long-distance cycling. This hike not only led me to a beautiful lake but also to a more athletic version of myself. 【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者与丈夫一起徒步攀登附近山顶上一个隐秘湖泊，在攀登过程中，他们遇到了一对放弃的夫妇，但作者决心克服困难继续前进。随着攀登的进行，作者开始欣赏沿途的美景并享受与丈夫的对话，原本看似遥不可及的目标变成了成就感的来源。随着天色渐暗，他们加快了步伐，最终成功登顶。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“很快，我们就该开始下山了。”可知，第一段可描写作者与丈夫开始下山的过程以及下山时的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“在接下来的几天里，我注意到自己开始发生变化。”可知，第二段可描写作者在徒步旅行后的几天里所发生的个人变化和成长。 2.续写线索：作者腿颤抖——作者丈夫鼓励——作者看风景——作者征服了远足——作者改变——报名健身课程——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①颤抖：tremble/shake ②征服：conquer/vanquish ③报名：sign up for/enter for 情绪类 ①累：tired/exhausted ②轻松：relief/ease 【点睛】[高分句型1] As we made our way, my legs were trembling.
