On this unofficial holiday, go and give your cat a big hug. Although its origins are unknown, it’s clear that the creators wanted people to let their cats know that they are loved. Studies have shown that giving your cat a hug can reduce stress and help you relax. Pardon Day It’s on September 8, a day to seek and give forgiveness and be kind to everyone and forgive those who may have hurt you. It’s thought that this unofficial holiday owes its existence to the pardon given by United States President Gerald Ford to former President Nixon. Swap Ideas Day It falls on September 10, which is a day to share thoughts, exchange ideas, trade opinions and discuss views with family members, friends, co-workers and strangers. This unofficial holiday promotes the concept that knowledge grows best when shared and that best ideas come about through teamwork. The day is also known in the United States as National Swap Ideas Day. Teddy Bear Day This unofficial holiday is on September 9, a day to bring out all your teddy bears and thank them for the fun times you have had with them, and for all the days and nights they comforted you. Created in the early 20th century, this toy owes its name to American President Theodore Roosevelt, who was lovingly called Teddy by his family and friends, and it’s also become a part of children’s literature. 21. Which holiday has something to do with American presidents? A. Pardon Day. B. Swap Ideas Day. C. Teddy Bear Day. D. Hug Your Cat Day 22. Which saying does Swap Ideas Day most likely remind us of? A.

B Florence Nightingale is widely regarded as the founder of modern nursing. Born into a wealthy upper-class British family, Nightingale was provided with a comprehensive education that included mathematics and languages. However, despite her family’s expectations that she would focus on traditional female pursuits like marriage and motherhood, Nightingale felt drawn to a career in nursing from a young age. Nightingale was deeply moved by the pains of the sick and injured, particularly during the Crimean War (1853-1856). At a time when nursing was not considered a respectable profession for women of her class, she decided to pursue her calling. She faced significant opposition from her family, who believed that nursing was under her social status, but she persevered. In 1854, Nightingale and a team of 38 nurses traveled to the Crimean War front, where conditions in the military hospitals were awful. She immediately set about improving hygiene and sanitation, organizing nursing care, and calling for better treatment of the wounded soldiers. Her tireless efforts and compassionate nursing earned her the nickname “The Lady with the Lamp”, as she was often seen making rounds at night, carrying a lamp to check on the soldiers. Her work significantly reduced the death rate among the wounded soldiers and brought much-needed attention to the terrible conditions of military hospitals. Her actions led to reforms in military healthcare and established the importance of proper nursing care in the treatment of the sick and injured. After the war, Nightingale returned to England as a national hero. She used her newfound fame to continue calling for improved healthcare and nursing standards. She published several influential works, including “Notes on Nursing” and “Notes on Hospitals”, which became seminal texts in the field of nursing. In summary, Florence Nightingale’ s life is a testament to the power of determination, compassion, and the ability to effect meaningful change. Her legacy continues to inspire and guide the nursing profession and healthcare reform to this day. 24. Why were Nightingale’s family against her dream of being a nurse? A. They thought the pay of nurses was too low. B. They thought getting married was better for women. C. They thought the work couldn’t match their social status. D. They thought the working environment for nurses was terrible. 25. What did Nightingale do at the Crimean War front? A. She wrote several influential works. B. She treated many wounded soldiers. C. She called for better treatment for common people. D. She improved the conditions in the military hospitals. 26. How did Nightingale use her fame? A. To sell more books. B. To draw attention to healthcare and nursing. C. To prove to her family that her choice was right. D. To attract more women to pursue the nursing career. 27. Which words can best describe Nightingale? A. Responsible and devoted. B. Stubborn but intelligent. C. Wealthy and professional. D. Unfortunate but inspiring. C Earthquakes are among the most powerful and destructive natural phenomena on our planet. They result from plate movements, where the Earth’s crustal plates grind against each other, causing stress to build up over time. When this stress exceeds the strength of the rock, it ruptures (断裂), releasing energy in the form of seismic waves (地震波) that travel through the Earth’s interior and shake the surface. The force of an earthquake depends on the extent of rock movement, and powerful events can shake firm ground violently for great distances. Earthquakes can have catastrophic consequences, though they rarely kill people directly. Instead, deaths and injuries are often caused by falling objects, building collapses, and subsequent fires or hazardous chemical spills. So no matter where we are, knowing how to protect ourselves and our family during an earthquake is necessary. For example, when we feel the ground is shaking, find a nice piece of furniture, a chair, a sofa, or a closet, and lie down, or curl up next to it. A falling roof may compact (压实) the furniture, but will still leave a space for us to survive next to it. After earthquakes, immediate response is crucial to save lives and minimize damage. Governments, international organizations, and local communities should work together to provide emergency relief, including medical aid, food, water, shelter, and search and rescue operations. Earthquakes are unpredictable and devastating natural disasters that can have profound impacts on communities worldwide. While we cannot prevent earthquakes from happening we can take steps to mitigate their effects through better building codes, early warning systems, and effective response and recovery efforts. By working together, we can reduce the human toll (伤亡人数) of these powerful events and build more resilient communities. 28. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A. What earthquakes are. B. What earthquakes cause. C. Where earthquakes occur. D. How earthquakes happen. 29. What should we do during an earthquake according to the text? A. Stay in the bedroom. B. Hide in a closet. C. Lie down next to a sofa. D. Curl up under a chair. 30. What is the key to reducing death and damage after an earthquake? A. Immediate response to others’ help. B. Quick action and cooperation at home and abroad. C. Getting connected with family and friends immediately. D. Waiting for aid from governments, communities and international organizations. 31. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Reduce. B. Prevent. C. Research. D. Promote. D The days of knocking on your neighbor’s door for a cup of sugar appear to be a bygone era. Social media posts complaining about how unwilling people are to lend a free hand or unload a tough day go viral; some posters even declare the “it takes a village mindset” is dead. Recent studies suggest that the size of Americans’ networks decreased during the pandemic, and the time spent socializing between 2003 and 2020 also dropped. According to a 2021 survey by the Survey Center on American Life, Americans rely less on friends than before; when experiencing a personal problem, 16 percent of respondents said they would consult a friend first compared to 26 percent in 1990. The modern age of apps gives us more ways to get things done: ride-share services can take you to the airport, while gig-work platforms ensure your dog is walked during that crucial meeting. But these tools, while helpful, can also “sacrifice human interaction,” says Xuan Zhao, a psychology research scientist at Stanford University and co-founder of the AI mental health start-up Flourish. At a time when loneliness epidemics are occurring worldwide, experts say avoiding communication not only goes against human nature but may be worse for our health. On the contrary, help and social connections make us feel better. Research suggests that one of the most vital indicators of positive mental health is our ability to picture a social safety network on which we can rely — whether we use it or not. That’s because when you allow someone else to join you, you’re offloading some of the cognitive effort and are creating” space to move through that stressor (压力源),” says Razia Sahi, a postdoctoral research fellow at Princeton University’s Logic of Emotion Lab. 32. Which of the following agrees with “it takes a village mindset”? A. People consult friends when they have problems. B. People are communicating on social media. C. People are unwilling to lend a free hand. D. People are using ride-share services. 33. What can we infer from Paragraph 2? A. The apps are partly responsible for the drop of socializing. B. The pandemic contributed to more social communication. C. Most people in 1990 were happy to ask friends for help. D. The apps are in fact not as convenient as we believe. 34. Why does picturing a social safety network matter to us? A. Because it goes well with human nature. B. Because it helps improve our overall health. C. Because allowing others to join us helps reduce stress. D. Because we rely on it to strengthen connections with others. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. People Refuse to Help Each Other B. Nowadays People Go Online too Often C. Pandemic Is Actually Separating People D. Asking for Help Is Really Good for People 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。 Whether you’re heading out for a day trip or a quick weekend getaway (短期休假) we will share some travel tips in this guide to help you make your experience more enjoyable. ___36___ The best way to travel doesn’t necessarily mean the fastest. Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer. Study the city you will travel to ___37___ , like NYC. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车). What works here might not work there. ___38___. Try all the available options Maybe you’re not sure about the best means of transport for you. ___39___. See what catching the subway is like, try cycling or riding the bus. It’s hard to predict what will be the most convenient. LA has a low-cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for getting around West Hollywood. You won’t know until you try them all. Don’t rely on map apps Map apps are useful, but they don’t take into account the possibility of packed subways, queues for taxis and the heat of a train in summer. Besides, they are a bit behind the real traffic time. ___40___. — by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go. A. Then experience them all B. Some cities are quite walkable C. You can ask the locals for advice D. Think about how you want to travel E. Maybe the map is directing you to a wrong way F. So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer G. So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分 30 ） 第一节 （共15 小题；每小题 l 分，满分 15 ） 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。 People often visit libraries to borrow books. But in Saskatchewan, Canada, dogs are now enjoying their own ___41___ place—the Stick Library.

They call each dog park a “branch” of the library, which adds a touch of humor to the whole ___44___.

He says it is thrilling to see them running over and grabbing a stick with ____53____, and while there aren’t any ____54____ return policies like in human libraries, they hope people will put the sticks back. “We just hope people will ____55____ the space and keep it fun for everyone,” he said. 41.

After a few busy days there, we were ready to get home. We left the activity centre looking to get a taxi with what felt like plenty of time to make our flight. No sooner had we left the building than it began to rain. “A little rain never hurt anyone,” we thought. Besides, we were about to start a business of inspiring people, so we could not let a little bad weather steal our happiness. After a while with no luck finding an empty taxi, we suddenly realized, “It’s five o’clock in New York city! This is rush hour traffic. We may never get a taxi.” My friend then remembered she had saved the van(面包车) company that had driven us here from the airport several days earlier. We gave them a call. Over an hour later, our van finally arrived and took us to the airport. A great relief came upon us when we arrived at the gate to discover the flight had been put off half an hour. Much to our disappointment, however, 20 minutes later, we discovered our flight put off again because of the bad weather in another state. Although we were tired and ready to get home, we refused to end our trip unhappily. Instead, we decided to make the most of our wait and took a nearby seat to relax and chat about our trip. During the long wait, some annoyed passengers approached the airline employees and expressed their dissatisfaction. We were impressed with the patience with which the airline dealt with each customer’s concern. I admit, at this point, we were fighting ourselves to not let the annoyance get to us, yet somehow we managed to smile. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Well into the middle of the night, airline employees began bringing out refreshments(茶点) to the passengers. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As my friend and I sat back down after serving all the passengers, an airline attendant walked over to as. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 峨眉二中23级高二下3月考考试英语科试题 （试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，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，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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is Laura going to do on Sunday?

Which do you like best? Hug Your Cat Day It falls on June 4. On this unofficial holiday, go and give your cat a big hug. Although its origins are unknown, it’s clear that the creators wanted people to let their cats know that they are loved. Studies have shown that giving your cat a hug can reduce stress and help you relax. Pardon Day It’s on September 8, a day to seek and give forgiveness and be kind to everyone and forgive those who may have hurt you. It’s thought that this unofficial holiday owes its existence to the pardon given by United States President Gerald Ford to former President Nixon. Swap Ideas Day It falls on September 10, which is a day to share thoughts, exchange ideas, trade opinions and discuss views with family members, friends, co-workers and strangers. This unofficial holiday promotes the concept that knowledge grows best when shared and that best ideas come about through teamwork. The day is also known in the United States as National Swap Ideas Day. Teddy Bear Day This unofficial holiday is on September 9 a day to bring out all your teddy bears and thank them for the fun times you have had with them, and for all the days and nights they comforted you. Created in the early 20th century, this toy owes its name to American President Theodore Roosevelt, who was lovingly called Teddy by his family and friends, and it’s also become a part of children’s literature. 21. Which holiday has something to do with American presidents? A. Pardon Day. B. Swap Ideas Day. C. Teddy Bear Day. D. Hug Your Cat Day 22. Which saying does Swap Ideas Day most likely remind us of? A. Pride comes before a fall. B. Great minds speak alike. C. Two heads are better than one. D. It is never too late to learn. 23. What do the listed holidays have in common? A. They are celebrated in September. B. They owe their existence to animals. C. They contribute to children’s books. D. They’re only recognized by the public. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个有趣的非官方的节日。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Pardon Day部分中“It’s thought that this unofficial holiday owes its existence to the pardon given by United States President Gerald Ford to former President Nixon.(人们认为，这个非官方节日的存在归功于美国总统杰拉尔德·福特对前总统尼克松的赦免。)”可知，Pardon Day与美国总统有关。故选A项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Swap Ideas Day部分中“This unofficial holiday promotes the concept that knowledge grows best when shared and that best ideas come about through teamwork.(这个非官方的节日提倡这样一种观念，即知识在分享时变得最好，最好的想法来自团队合作。)”可知，Swap Ideas Day最有可能让我们想起的谚语是“三个臭皮匠胜过一个诸葛亮”。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Hug Your Cat Day部分中“On this unofficial holiday, go and give your cat a big hug.(在这个非官方的节日里，去给你的猫一个大大的拥抱吧。)”和Pardon Day部分中“It’s thought that this unofficial holiday owes its existence to the pardon given by United States President Gerald Ford to former President Nixon.(人们认为，这个非官方节日的存在归功于美国总统杰拉尔德·福特对前总统尼克松的赦免。)”和Swap Ideas Day部分中“This unofficial holiday promotes the concept that knowledge grows best when shared and that best ideas come about through teamwork.(这个非官方的节日提倡这样一种观念，即知识在分享时变得最好，最好的想法来自团队合作。)”和Teddy Bear Day部分中“This unofficial holiday is on September 9, a day to bring out all your teddy bears and thank them for the fun times you have had with them, and for all the days and nights they comforted you.(这个非官方的节日是在9月9日，这一天你可以把你所有的泰迪熊都拿出来，感谢它们和你一起度过的快乐时光，感谢它们日日夜夜给你的安慰。)”可知，列出的四个节日的共同之处在于，它们都是非官方的节日，只被民众认可。故选D项。 B Florence Nightingale is widely regarded as the founder of modern nursing. Born into a wealthy upper-class British family, Nightingale was provided with a comprehensive education that included mathematics and languages. However, despite her family’s expectations that she would focus on traditional female pursuits like marriage and motherhood, Nightingale felt drawn to a career in nursing from a young age. Nightingale was deeply moved by the pains of the sick and injured, particularly during the Crimean War (1853-1856). At a time when nursing was not considered a respectable profession for women of her class, she decided to pursue her calling. She faced significant opposition from her family, who believed that nursing was under her social status, but she persevered. In 1854, Nightingale and a team of 38 nurses traveled to the Crimean War front, where conditions in the military hospitals were awful. She immediately set about improving hygiene and sanitation, organizing nursing care, and calling for better treatment of the wounded soldiers. Her tireless efforts and compassionate nursing earned her the nickname “The Lady with the Lamp”, as she was often seen making rounds at night, carrying a lamp to check on the soldiers. Her work significantly reduced the death rate among the wounded soldiers and brought much-needed attention to the terrible conditions of military hospitals. Her actions led to reforms in military healthcare and established the importance of proper nursing care in the treatment of the sick and injured. After the war, Nightingale returned to England as a national hero. She used her newfound fame to continue calling for improved healthcare and nursing standards. She published several influential works, including “Notes on Nursing” and “Notes on Hospitals”, which became seminal texts in the field of nursing. In summary, Florence Nightingale’ s life is a testament to the power of determination, compassion, and the ability to effect meaningful change. Her legacy continues to inspire and guide the nursing profession and healthcare reform to this day. 24. Why were Nightingale’s family against her dream of being a nurse? A. They thought the pay of nurses was too low. B. They thought getting married was better for women. C. They thought the work couldn’t match their social status. D. They thought the working environment for nurses was terrible. 25. What did Nightingale do at the Crimean War front? A. She wrote several influential works. B. She treated many wounded soldiers. C. She called for better treatment for common people. D. She improved the conditions in the military hospitals. 26. How did Nightingale use her fame? A. To sell more books. B. To draw attention to healthcare and nursing. C. To prove to her family that her choice was right. D. To attract more women to pursue the nursing career. 27. Which words can best describe Nightingale? A. Responsible and devoted. B. Stubborn but intelligent. C. Wealthy and professional. D. Unfortunate but inspiring. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了南丁格尔克服家庭和社会的阻力，投身护理事业，改善克里米亚战争中医院条件，成为现代护理学奠基人的生平事迹。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。 由文章第二段中“She faced significant opposition from her family, who believed that nursing was under her social status, but she persevered. (她面临着来自家人的强烈反对，他们认为做护士有失她的社会地位，但她坚持了下来。)”可知，Nightingale的家庭认为护理工作低于他们的社会地位。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。 由文章第三段中“She immediately set about improving hygiene and sanitation, organizing nursing care, and calling for better treatment of the wounded soldiers. (她立即着手改善个人保健和环境卫生，组织护理，并呼吁对受伤士兵进行更好的治疗。)”可知，Nightingale在克里米亚战争前线改善了医院的卫生条件。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。 由文章第五段中“She used her newfound fame to continue calling for improved healthcare and nursing standards. (她利用自己新获得的名声继续呼吁改善医疗保健和护理标准。)”可知，Nightingale利用她的名声继续呼吁改善医疗和护理标准。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。 由文章第三段“In 1854, Nightingale and a team of 38 nurses traveled to the Crimean War front, where conditions in the military hospitals were awful. She immediately set about improving hygiene and sanitation, organizing nursing care, and calling for better treatment of the wounded soldiers. Her tireless efforts and compassionate nursing earned her the nickname “The Lady with the Lamp”, as she was often seen making rounds at night, carrying a lamp to check on the soldiers. (1854年，南丁格尔和一个由38名护士组成的团队前往克里米亚战争前线，那里的军事医院条件非常糟糕。她立即着手改善卫生和环境卫生，组织护理，并呼吁对受伤士兵进行更好的治疗。她不知疲倦的努力和富有同情心的护理为她赢得了“提灯女士”的绰号，因为她经常在晚上拿着一盏灯巡视士兵。)”可知，Nightingale不仅亲自前往前线，还迅速着手改善医院的卫生和消毒条件，组织护理工作，并呼吁给予伤员更好的治疗。Nightingale表现出高度的责任感和奉献精神。故选A。 C Earthquakes are among the most powerful and destructive natural phenomena on our planet. They result from plate movements, where the Earth’s crustal plates grind against each other, causing stress to build up over time. When this stress exceeds the strength of the rock, it ruptures (断裂), releasing energy in the form of seismic waves (地震波) that travel through the Earth’s interior and shake the surface. The force of an earthquake depends on the extent of rock movement, and powerful events can shake firm ground violently for great distances. Earthquakes can have catastrophic consequences, though they rarely kill people directly. Instead, deaths and injuries are often caused by falling objects, building collapses, and subsequent fires or hazardous chemical spills. So no matter where we are, knowing how to protect ourselves and our family during an earthquake is necessary. For example, when we feel the ground is shaking, find a nice piece of furniture, a chair, a sofa, or a closet, and lie down, or curl up next to it. A falling roof may compact (压实) the furniture, but will still leave a space for us to survive next to it. After earthquakes, immediate response is crucial to save lives and minimize damage. Governments, international organizations, and local communities should work together to provide emergency relief, including medical aid, food, water, shelter, and search and rescue operations. Earthquakes are unpredictable and devastating natural disasters that can have profound impacts on communities worldwide. While we cannot prevent earthquakes from happening we can take steps to mitigate their effects through better building codes, early warning systems, and effective response and recovery efforts. By working together, we can reduce the human toll (伤亡人数) of these powerful events and build more resilient communities. 28. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A. What earthquakes are. B. What earthquakes cause. C. Where earthquakes occur. D. How earthquakes happen. 29. What should we do during an earthquake according to the text? A. Stay in the bedroom. B. Hide in a closet. C. Lie down next to a sofa. D. Curl up under a chair. 30. What is the key to reducing death and damage after an earthquake? A. Immediate response to others’ help. B. Quick action and cooperation at home and abroad. C. Getting connected with family and friends immediately. D. Waiting for aid from governments, communities and international organizations. 31. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Reduce. B. Prevent. C. Research. D. Promote. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了地震发生的原因，造成的严重后果，人们应该怎么做才能减少伤亡以及震后可以采取哪些措施减少损失。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“They result from plate movements, where the Earth’s crustal plates grind against each other, causing stress to build up over time. (它们是板块运动的结果，地球的地壳板块相互摩擦，造成压力随着时间的推移而增加)”及本段内容可知，第一段是介绍地震发生的原因，即地震如何发生的。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“For example, when we feel the ground is shaking, find a nice piece of furniture, a chair, a sofa, or a closet, and lie down, or curl up next to it. A falling roof may compact (压实) the furniture, but will still leave a space for us to survive next to it. (例如，当我们感到地面在晃动时，找一件漂亮的家具，椅子，沙发或壁橱，躺下，或蜷缩在它旁边。倒塌的屋顶可能会压紧家具，但仍会为我们留下生存的空间)”可知，地震时我们应该躺在沙发旁边。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“After earthquakes, immediate response is crucial to save lives and minimize damage. Governments, international organizations, and local communities should work together to provide emergency relief, including medical aid, food, water, shelter, and search and rescue operations. (地震发生后，快速反应对于挽救生命和减少损失至关重要。各国政府、国际组织和当地社区应共同努力，提供紧急救援，包括医疗援助、食品、水、住所以及搜救行动)”可知，地震后减少死亡和损失的关键是快速行动，国内外合作。故选B。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“While we cannot prevent earthquakes from happening, (虽然我们无法预防地震的发生)”和后半句“through better building codes, early warning systems, and effective response and recovery efforts. (通过更好的建筑规范、早期预警系统以及有效的响应和恢复工作)”可知，地震无法预测，也无法避免，但是我们可以采取措施来减少地震的影响。所以划线词mitigate为“减少”之意。故选A。 D The days of knocking on your neighbor’s door for a cup of sugar appear to be a bygone era. Social media posts complaining about how unwilling people are to lend a free hand or unload a tough day go viral; some posters even declare the “it takes a village mindset” is dead. Recent studies suggest that the size of Americans’ networks decreased during the pandemic, and the time spent socializing between 2003 and 2020 also dropped. According to a 2021 survey by the Survey Center on American Life, Americans rely less on friends than before; when experiencing a personal problem, 16 percent of respondents said they would consult a friend first compared to 26 percent in 1990. The modern age of apps gives us more ways to get things done: ride-share services can take you to the airport, while gig-work platforms ensure your dog is walked during that crucial meeting. But these tools, while helpful, can also “sacrifice human interaction,” says Xuan Zhao, a psychology research scientist at Stanford University and co-founder of the AI mental health start-up Flourish. At a time when loneliness epidemics are occurring worldwide, experts say avoiding communication not only goes against human nature but may be worse for our health. On the contrary, help and social connections make us feel better. Research suggests that one of the most vital indicators of positive mental health is our ability to picture a social safety network on which we can rely — whether we use it or not. That’s because when you allow someone else to join you, you’re offloading some of the cognitive effort and are creating” space to move through that stressor (压力源),” says Razia Sahi, a postdoctoral research fellow at Princeton University’s Logic of Emotion Lab. 32. Which of the following agrees with “it takes a village mindset”? A. People consult friends when they have problems. B. People are communicating on social media. C. People are unwilling to lend a free hand. D. People are using ride-share services. 33. What can we infer from Paragraph 2? A. The apps are partly responsible for the drop of socializing. B. The pandemic contributed to more social communication. C. Most people in 1990 were happy to ask friends for help. D. The apps are in fact not as convenient as we believe. 34. Why does picturing a social safety network matter to us? A. Because it goes well with human nature. B. Because it helps improve our overall health. C. Because allowing others to join us helps reduce stress. D. Because we rely on it to strengthen connections with others. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. People Refuse to Help Each Other B. Nowadays People Go Online too Often C. Pandemic Is Actually Separating People D. Asking for Help Is Really Good for People 【答案】32. A 33. A 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代人社交减少的趋势，并强调了寻求帮助和建立社交联系对健康的重要性。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“The days of knocking on your neighbor’s door for a cup of sugar appear to be a bygone era. Social media posts complaining about how unwilling people are to lend a free hand or unload a tough day go viral; some posters even declare the “it takes a village mindset” is dead. (敲开邻居家的门借一杯糖的日子似乎已经成为过去。社交媒体上充斥着人们不愿伸出援手或倾诉艰难日子的抱怨；一些发帖者甚至宣称“团结互助的心态”已经消亡。)”可知，“团结互助的心态”强调人们相互间的帮助，人们遇到困难时是会向朋友求助的，这与“团结互助的心态”一致。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段中“The modern age of apps gives us more ways to get things done: ride-share services can take you to the airport, while gig-work platforms ensure your dog is walked during that crucial meeting. But these tools, while helpful, can also “sacrifice human interaction,” says Xuan Zhao, a psychology research scientist at Stanford University and co-founder of the AI mental health start-up Flourish. (现代应用程序为我们提供了更多的办事方式：拼车服务可以送你去机场，而零工平台则确保你的狗在重要会议期间得到遛放。然而，斯坦福大学的心理学研究科学家、AI心理健康初创公司Flourish的联合创始人Xuan Zhao表示，这些工具虽然有用，但也可能“牺牲人际互动”。)”可知，应用程序是导致社交减少的部分原因。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“That’s because when you allow someone else to join you, you’re offloading some of the cognitive effort and are creating” space to move through that stressor (压力源),” says Razia Sahi, a postdoctoral research fellow at Princeton University’s Logic of Emotion Lab. (这是因为当你允许别人加入你时，你会卸下一部分认知负担，并创造出“应对压力的空间，”普林斯顿大学逻辑情感实验室的博士后研究员Razia Sahi说道。)”可知，这是因为允许别人加入我们可以帮助我们减轻压力。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段中“Social media posts complaining about how unwilling people are to lend a free hand or unload a tough day go viral; some posters even declare the “it takes a village mindset” is dead. (社交媒体上充斥着人们不愿伸出援手或倾诉艰难日子的抱怨；一些发帖者甚至宣称“团结互助的心态”的心态已经消亡。)”和倒数第二段“At a time when loneliness epidemics are occurring worldwide, experts say avoiding communication not only goes against human nature but may be worse for our health. On the contrary, help and social connections make us feel better. Research suggests that one of the most vital indicators of positive mental health is our ability to picture a social safety network on which we can rely—whether we use it or not. (在全球孤独症流行的时代，专家们表示，避免交流不仅违背了人性，还可能对我们的健康造成更大的危害。相反，帮助和支持使我们感觉更好。研究表明，积极心理健康的最重要指标之一是我们能否想象出一个可以依赖的社会安全网——无论我们是否使用它。)”可知，文章主要讲述了现代人在遇到问题时越来越不愿意向他人求助，而是依赖各种应用程序来完成事情，但这样做会牺牲人与人之间的交往，而专家指出，寻求帮助和社交联系对我们的健康是有益的。因此，选项D“Asking for Help Is Really Good for People (寻求帮助对人们真的很好)”符合题意。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。 Whether you’re heading out for a day trip or a quick weekend getaway (短期休假), we will share some travel tips in this guide to help you make your experience more enjoyable. ___36___ The best way to travel doesn’t necessarily mean the fastest. Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer. Study the city you will travel to ___37___ , like NYC. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车). What works here might not work there. ___38___. Try all the available options Maybe you’re not sure about the best means of transport for you. ___39___. See what catching the subway is like, try cycling or riding the bus. It’s hard to predict what will be the most convenient. LA has a low-cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for getting around West Hollywood. You won’t know until you try them all. Don’t rely on map apps Map apps are useful, but they don’t take into account the possibility of packed subways, queues for taxis and the heat of a train in summer. Besides, they are a bit behind the real traffic time. ___40___. — by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go. A. Then experience them all B. Some cities are quite walkable C. You can ask the locals for advice D. Think about how you want to travel E. Maybe the map is directing you to a wrong way F. So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer G. So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so 【答案】36. D 37. B 38. F 39. A 40. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一篇旅行指南帮助读者在旅行中做出明智的选择并得到更加愉快的体验。 【36题详解】 根据下文“The best way to travel doesn’t necessarily mean the fastest. Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer. (最好的旅行方式不一定是最快的。有时它意味着最愉快的。在短途旅行中考虑太多是不值得的。如果你对某种交通方式有偏好，那么短途旅行通常是值得的，即使它最终会花费你更多的时间。)”可知，本段主要介绍所考虑的旅游方式。所以D选项“Think about how you want to travel (想想你想要怎样旅行)”符合上下文语境。故选D。 【37题详解】 根据后句“Others simply aren’t. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike —whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. (其他的则不是。在阿姆斯特丹，最好的出行方式就是骑自行车——不管你是使用城市的共享单车还是从酒店租一辆。)”以及后面提到的不同地方可知，这里提到不同城市的旅游方式。所以B选项“Some cities are quite walkable (有些城市非常适合步行)”符合上下文语境。故选B。 【38题详解】 根据前句“What works here might not work there. (在这里有效的方法在那里不一定有效。)”及本段内容可知，不同城市的最佳出行方式不同，答案不能一刀切。所以F选项“So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer (所以不要费心去寻找所谓的一刀切的答案)”符合上下文语境。故选F。 【39题详解】 根据本段小标题“Try all the available options (尝试所有可用的选项)”及下文“Maybe you’re not sure about the best means of transport for you. (也许你不确定哪种交通方式最适合你。)”可知，本段介绍尝试体验不同的交通方式。所以A选项“Then experience them all (那就全部体验一下)”符合上下文语境。故选A。 【40题详解】 根据前句“Besides, they are a bit behind the real traffic time. (此外，他们有点落后于真正的交通时间。)”和后句“by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go. (当你开到一半的时候，你可能还有30分钟要走。)”可知，交通信息不及时，所以地图应用程序也会有误。所以G选择项“So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so (所以，不要仅仅因为地图应用程序这么说，就认为某个地方需要30分钟的车程)”符合上下文语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分 30 ） 第一节 （共15 小题；每小题 l 分，满分 15 ） 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。 People often visit libraries to borrow books.

After a few busy days there, we were ready to get home. We left the activity centre looking to get a taxi with what felt like plenty of time to make our flight. No sooner had we left the building than it began to rain. “A little rain never hurt anyone,” we thought. Besides, we were about to start a business of inspiring people, so we could not let a little bad weather steal our happiness. After a while with no luck finding an empty taxi, we suddenly realized, “It’s five o’clock in New York city! This is rush hour traffic. We may never get a taxi.” My friend then remembered she had saved the van(面包车) company that had driven us here from the airport several days earlier. We gave them a call. Over an hour later, our van finally arrived and took us to the airport. A great relief came upon us when we arrived at the gate to discover the flight had been put off half an hour. Much to our disappointment, however, 20 minutes later, we discovered our flight put off again because of the bad weather in another state. Although we were tired and ready to get home, we refused to end our trip unhappily. Instead, we decided to make the most of our wait and took a nearby seat to relax and chat about our trip. During the long wait, some annoyed passengers approached the airline employees and expressed their dissatisfaction. We were impressed with the patience with which the airline dealt with each customer’s concern. I admit, at this point, we were fighting ourselves to not let the annoyance get to us, yet somehow we managed to smile. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Well into the middle of the night, airline employees began bringing out refreshments(茶点) to the passengers. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As my friend and I sat back down after serving all the passengers, an airline attendant walked over to as. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Well into the middle of the night, airline employees began bringing out refreshments(茶点) to the passengers. My friend stood up and offered to help. I jumped up after her, agreeing it sounded like a good idea. We then started to hand out cups of juice and water to tired passengers. We found ourselves sitting and sharing stories with some, while just offering smiles and encouragement to others. As my friend and I sat back down after serving all the passengers, an airline attendant walked over to us. He thanked us for our help and told us how much the attendants had appreciated our positive attitude. He then asked our boarding passes, telling us the airline wanted to upgrade us to First Class! Shortly after we exchanged our tickets, our plan finally ready for take-off. We boarded the plane with a new understanding of how big an impact our attitude can truly make. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物为线索。作者和朋友准备开一家励志书店，于是参加了纽约的一个课程。在到达机场的时候，发现飞机延误了，但作者和朋友并没有让这些不愉快影响自己的心情，相反，他们还主动帮忙给其他乘客送茶点，给人们微笑和鼓励。后来他们被升级到了头等舱，这让他们明白了自己的态度可以产生巨大的影响。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“深夜时分，航空公司员工开始为乘客端上点心。”可知，第一段可以描写作者和朋友帮助为乘客端点心，并安慰其他人。 ②由续写第二段首句“当我和我的朋友在为所有乘客服务后坐下时，一位航空公司服务员向我们走来。”可知，第二段可以描写作者和朋友因为主动帮忙而获得了升级头等舱的回报。 2. 段落续写： 员工为乘客提供点心——作者和朋友主动帮忙——安慰其他人——乘务员感激作者和朋友——作者和朋友被升级到了头等舱——感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①开始：start/begin ②分发：hand out/give out/distribute ③交换：exchange/switch 情绪类 ①感谢：thank/appreciate ②积极乐观的：positive/optimistic 【点睛】【高分句型1】We found ourselves sitting and sharing stories with some, while just offering smiles and encouragement to others.(使用了“find+宾语+宾补”结构，还使用了while引导时间状语从句的省略结构) 【高分句型2】He thanked us for our help and told us how much the attendants had appreciated our positive attitude.
