Students must also be able to understand and manage their emotions to succeed at school,” said Carolyn MacCann, lead author of the study. MacCann and her colleagues analyzed data from more than 160 studies, representing more than 42,000 students from 27 countries, published between 1998 and 2019. The students ranged in age from primary school to college. The researchers found that students with higher EI tended to get higher grades and better achievement test scores than those with lower EI scores. This finding held true even when controlling for intelligence and personality factors. What was most surprising to the researchers was the association held despite different ages. As for why EI can affect academic performance, MacCann believes a number of factors may come into play. “Students with higher EI may be better able to manage negative emotions, such as anxiety, boredom and disappointment, which can negatively affect academic performance,” she said. “Also, these students may be better able to manage the social world around them, forming better relationships with teachers, classmates and family, all of which are important to academic success.” Finally, the skills required for EI, such as understanding human motivation and emotion, may overlap with (与……重叠) the skills required to master certain subjects, such as history and language, giving students an advantage in those subject areas, according to MacCann. However, MacCann cautions against widespread testing of students to identify and target those with low EI as it may stigmatize (给……打上烙印) those students. Instead, she recommends interventions that involve the whole school, including additional teacher training and a focus on teacher well-being and emotional skills. “Programs that integrate emotional skill development into the existing curriculum would be beneficial, as research suggests that training works better when run by teachers rather than external specialists,” she said. “Increasing skills for everyone — not just those with low EI—would benefit everyone.” 4. What surprised the researchers most during MacCann’s study? A. Intelligence mattered more than EI for academic success. B. EI had an effect on learning for students of all ages. C. College students benefited more from EI than pupils. D. Personality affected academic performance greatly. 5. What can be a reason for the conclusion of MacCann’s study? A. High-EI students hardly experience negative emotions. B. High-EI students seldom develop social relationships. C. High-EI students tend to easily focus on their study. D. High-EI students have helpful skills for certain subjects. 6. What does MacCann suggest in the last paragraph? A. Equipping teachers with emotional skills. B. Designing tests to identify students with low EI. C. Developing special programs for students with low EI. D Employing emotional specialists to give training to students. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Should EI be taught in school? B. How can students develop high EI? C. Students with high EI do better in school D. Good students do better in managing emotions 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。研究发现，情商高，即能够有效管理自己情绪的学生，在学业上表现得更好。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“What was most surprising to the researchers was the association held despite different ages.”（让研究人员最惊奇的是情商和学习成绩的关系对任何年龄的学生都适用）可知，情商对所有年龄段的学生的学习都有影响。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Finally, the skills required for EI, such as understanding human motivation and emotion, may overlap with (与……重叠) the skills required to master certain subjects, such as history and language, giving students an advantage in those subject areas, according to MacCann.”（最后，根据MacCann的说法，情商所需的技能，如理解人类动机和情绪，可能与掌握某些科目所需的技巧重叠，如历史和语言，使学生在这些科目领域具有优势。）可知，情商高的学生成绩更好，其中一个原因是他们所具有的技能(如理解人类动机和情感)，与掌握某些学科(如历史和语言)所需的技能重叠，因此在这些学科领域具有优势。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“she recommends interventions that involve the whole school, including additional teacher training and a focus on teacher well-being and emotional skills”（她建议采取涉及整个学校的干预措施，包括额外的教师培训和关注教师的幸福感和情感技能）以及“training works better when run by teachers rather than external specialists”（由教师而不是外部专家进行培训效果更好）可知，MacCann建议要培养教师的情商培养技能。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段“Students who are better able to understand and manage their emotions effectively, a skill known as emotional intelligence (EI), do better at school than their less-skilled classmates, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.”（美国心理学会发表的一项研究表明，能够更好地理解和有效管理自己情绪的学生，即情商(EI)，在学校的表现比那些情商较低的同学要好）可知，本文主要讲述了情商高的学生学业表现更好，故C项“高情商的学生在学校表现更好”作标题最为恰当。故选C项。 C Do you ever hear a friend speak on a topic with the belief that “everyone” thinks the same way? Do you often find yourself surrounded in a social media feed that is completely tailored (订做的) to you and your beliefs, reading along without the immediate realization? A social media echo chamber (社交媒体回音室) is when one experiences a tailored media information that leaves out opposing viewpoints and differing voices. Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube connect groups of like-minded users together based on shared content preferences. As a result, people see and take in information according to our preexisting beliefs and opinions. Social media companies therefore rely on algorithms (算法) to assess our interests and flood us with information that will keep our attention. The algorithms focus on what we “like”, and “share” to keep feeding content that makes us comfortable. In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone. While this becomes increasingly challenging, there are things we can do. The first step is to beef up your media sources. Adding in a few media sources with different opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye. Make sure that each thing you accept as truth is truly fact. Lastly, attempt to search out reliable new sources that are known for trying their best to leave out false information. By accepting that our media buffet (自助餐) on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber. 8. What is a result of the social media echo chamber? A. People keep reading for more differing viewpoints. B. People contact like-minded online users effectively. C. People rely on algorithms to evaluate their interests. D. People only get information confirming their beliefs. 9. What does the phrase “beef up” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Track. B. Identify. C. Improve. D. Provide. 10. Which of the following can help us get out of the echo chamber? A. Exposing ourselves to opposing voices. B. Criticizing all the things on social media. C. Accepting our present beliefs and opinions. D. Researching primary sources of information. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To call on people to use algorithms frequently. B. To ask people not to take in information blindly. C. To promote the use of various social media sites. D. To inform people of new technology developments. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。社交媒体回音室是指一个人体验量身定制的媒体信息，将对立的观点和不同的声音排除在外。本文主要分析了社交媒体回音室产生的原因，并就如何确保我们不会简单地被困在社交媒体的回音室里提出建议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“As a result, people see and take in information according to our preexisting beliefs and opinions.(因此，人们根据我们先前存在的信仰和观点来看待和接受信息)”可知，社交媒体回音室的结果是人们只能得到证实他们信仰的信息。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段画线词后的句子“Adding in a few media sources with differing opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber.(加入一些有不同意见的媒体来源，至少可以让你了解人们在你的回音室外说什么)”可推知，人们需要改进媒体来源，从而真正获得所有信息并评估我们的媒体。因此beef up意为“加强；改进”。和C项意思相近。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Adding in a few media sources with differing opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye.(加入一些有不同意见的媒体来源，至少可以让你了解人们在你的回音室外说什么。接下来，用批判的眼光阅读你所看到的每一件事)”可知，让自己暴露在反对的声音中可以帮助我们走出回音室。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone.(为了真正获得所有信息并评估我们的媒体，我们必须给自己一个走出舒适区的机会)”和最后一句“By accepting that our media buffet (自助餐) on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber.(通过接受我们在社交媒体上的媒体自助餐是我们当前信仰和观点的产物，我们可以努力确保我们不会简单地被困在社交媒体的回音室里)”可知，作者希望通过本文让人们不要盲目接受信息。故选B。 D To the human ears, a field of flowers is silent, except the noise of birds and insects. To certain animal ears, however, a field of flowers is full of conversation. Now, scientists have discovered that plants actually make noise as a way of communicating. In other words, they talk! It has long been known that plants communicate when they are stressed. You need only watch a houseplant to realize that a plant lowers its head when it needs water or turns yellow when it has been watered too much. Some plants also send out a bad smell when stressed to try and stop insects from taking advantage of their stressed state and eating them up. Now, a new study that was published in Cell and conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking. According to NoCamels, plants send out sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 kilohertz — out of the range (范围) of human ears, but within the range of some animals. “Bats (蝙蝠) make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partly hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, one of the authors of the study, told NoCamels. What is surprising about Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and group the sounds that plants make for the first time. Plants that are not stressed make about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed, thirsty, or injured make many hundreds of sounds per hour; and each of these sounds seems to show the certain type of stress the plant is under. This type of information could be key for agriculture (农业). Knowing what sounds their plants are making will help farmers determine whether their plants are in danger or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to allow their plants to grow well. 12. Why do some plants send out a bad smell? A. To show they hate birds. B. To say they are in need of water. C. To protect themselves from danger. D. To tell people to stop watering them. 13. Which of the following can hear plants most clearly? A. Humans. B. Cats. C. Dogs. D. Bats. 14. What does the last paragraph focus on? A. The big problems farmers have been facing. B. The possible application of the new study. C. The ways for farmers to learn plants’ languages. D. The points needed to be improved for the study. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Plants Change Their Looks to Ask for Help B. Necessary Changes Are Made to Agriculture C. Plants Can Make Sounds to Communicate D. A Field of Plants Is Silent to the Human Ears 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。科学家发现植物在压力下不仅通过低头、变色等传统方式表达，还会发出人耳听不到的声响进行沟通。这些声音频率在40至80千赫兹之间，部分动物能听到。研究首次解析了植物的声音类型，根据不同声音可判断植物是否遭受压力、干旱或伤害，有助于农业生产者及时采取措施保障作物健康生长。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Some plants also send out a bad smell when stressed to try and stop insects from taking advantage of their stressed state and eating them up. (一些植物在受到压力时也会发出难闻的气味，试图阻止昆虫利用它们的压力状态吃掉它们。)”可知，一些植物发出难闻的气味是为了不被吃掉，即自我保护。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“According to NoCamels, plants send out sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 kilohertz—out of the range (范围) of human ears, but within the range of some animals. “Bats (蝙蝠) make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partly hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, one of the authors of the study, told NoCamels. (根据NoCamels的说法，植物发出的声音频率在40到80千赫兹之间，超出了人耳的听觉范围，但在一些动物的听觉范围内。“蝙蝠一直在这个范围内发出声音，老鼠、狗和猫都能在这个范围内听到部分声音，”该研究的作者之一利拉克·哈达尼博士告诉NoCamels。)”可知，蝙蝠能够最清楚地听到植物的声音。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“This type of information could be key for agriculture (农业). Knowing what sounds their plants are making will help farmers determine whether their plants are in danger or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to allow their plants to grow well. (这类信息可能对农业至关重要。了解他们的植物发出的声音将帮助农民确定他们的植物是否处于危险或疾病之中，并使他们能够做出必要的改变，使他们的植物生长得更好。)”可知，本段聚焦于该项新研究的可能的应用。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Now, scientists have discovered that plants actually make noise as a way of communicating. In other words, they talk! (现在，科学家们已经发现植物发出声音实际上是一种交流的方式。换句话说，他们会说话！)”可知，本文主要介绍了项新的研究发现——植物可以发声。故选C。 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。 How to Quiet a Complainer(抱怨者) Have you ever suffered your mother’s complaints about her aches and pains? Lengthy complaints will ruin the quality of your time together. ____16____ Actually there are some ways to get a complainer to stop without starting an argument. Change the subject. Some complainers will switch topics if you shift the conversation in a direction that interests them. If your neighbor is complaining about the phone company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend. If your coworker is complaining about your boss, ask whether he met the new employee. ____17____ Summarize the complaint. If your complainer keeps repeating himself, he may stop if you show that you’re listening. ____18____ Using “I” statements rather than “you” statements show that you’re interested rather than trying to shut the person down. Avoid saying the word complaining. Saying you hear their dissatisfaction gets the points across. Try to be honest. When you have things to do, tell the complainer that you must cut the conversation short. ____19____ You can simply be honest, even saying you need to move on so the conversation doesn’t bring you down – especially if it’s someone who’s complained to you many times before. ____20____ When it’s someone very close to you–your partner, sibling, or best friend–who stresses you out with a lot of negativity, it’s important to talk about the problem with an open heart. Otherwise, if you bottle up your feelings and continue listening to repeated complaints, you may grow angry or start avoiding the person. A. Have a heart-to-heart talk. B. Challenge the person to act. C. But you may not be brave enough to stop her. D. Just get them off the focus that they’re currently on. E. The problems start when complaining becomes a habit. F. You don’t need excuses such as a work deadline or a dentist appointment. G. Ask something like, “Can I tell you what I’ve heard and I understand how you feel?” 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. G 19. F 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了阻止抱怨者抱怨的几种方法。 【16题详解】 上文“Have you ever suffered your mother’s complaints about her aches and pains? Lengthy complaints will ruin the quality of your time together. (你是否曾经遭受过你母亲关于她身体疼痛的抱怨？长时间的抱怨会破坏你们在一起的时间质量)”指出如果你的母亲在你面前抱怨这可以产生不好的结果，下文“Actually there are some ways to get a complainer to stop without starting an argument.(事实上，有一些方法可以让抱怨者停止抱怨而不会引起争论)”笔锋一转，指出有办法能让抱怨者停止抱怨而不会引起争论，由此可知，空处应该承接上文，C项“但你可能没有足够的勇气去阻止她”切题，是对上文的总结，同时也引出了本文话题，即针对你可能没有足够的勇气去阻止自己的母亲抱怨这种事，本文有一些方法，故选C。 【17题详解】 根据本段中心句“Change the subject. (换个话题)”可知，本段主要讲了要转移抱怨者的话题，空前“If your neighbor is complaining about the phone company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend. If your coworker is complaining about your boss, ask whether he met the new employee.(如果你的邻居正在抱怨电话公司，告诉她你意外地接到了一个老朋友的电话。如果你的同事在抱怨你的老板，问问他是否见过新员工)”列举你会遇到周围的一些人向你抱怨的情况，空格处应该承接上文，指出我们如果遇到一些人向我们抱怨，应该如何做，即转移话题，D项“把他们从现在的焦点上转移开”符合本段中心思想，故选D。 【18题详解】 上文“If your complainer keeps repeating himself, he may stop if you show that you’re listening.(如果你的抱怨者不断重复自己的话，如果你表现出你在听，他可能会停下来)”指出当抱怨者向自己抱怨时，要表示出你在听，空处应该承接上文，指出具体如何做才能表现出自己在听，G项“问一些类似这样的问题，‘我能告诉你我听到了的以及我理解你的感受吗？’”切题，是表现出自己在听的具体做法，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据本段中心句“Try to be honest.(试着说实话)”可知，本段主要讲要对抱怨者说实话，上文“When you have things to do, tell the complainer that you must cut the conversation short.(当你有事情要做时，告诉抱怨者你必须中断谈话)”提到当你有事情要做时，告诉抱怨者你必须中断谈话，下文“You can simply be honest(你可以只是直说)”提到你要直说，即你不需要找借口，F项“你不需要诸如工作截止日期或者牙医预约之类的借口”切题，故选F。 【20题详解】 此处是本段中心句。由下文“When it’s someone very close to you–your partner, sibling, or best friend–who stresses you out with a lot of negativity, it’s important to talk about the problem with an open heart. (当与你非常亲近的人——你的伴侣、兄弟姐妹或最好的朋友——给你带来很多负面压力时，敞开心扉谈论这个问题是很重要的)”可知，本段主要讲要和抱怨者敞开心扉谈论，A项“开诚布公地谈一谈”切题，能概括本段内容，故选A。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分37.5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。 For ten years my father had been fighting cancer.

Little did I knew that my journey would be marked by an unexpected friendship. My desk mate, Tom, was a stutterer (结巴). Sometimes, it made me really uncomfortable. The first day of school was exciting. I found my seat and settled in, only to be greeted by a nervous stutter from my deskmate. “H-Hello, I’m T-Tom,” he said. I tried to be polite. But inside, I felt embarrassed (尴尬). I was worried about how his stuttering would affect me, especially during class discussions. I avoided him as much as possible, not wanting to be associated with the awkwardness he seemed to bring. One day, during a particularly challenging math class, I was struggling to understand a complex problem. The teacher, Mrs. Lee, noticed my confusion and asked if I needed help. Before I could answer, Tom spoke up. “I-I-I-I can help,” he offered, his stutter became mere noticeable under the pressure. To my surprise, he explained the problem clearly, and I began to see him in a new light. His intelligence and kindness shone through his stutter, and I felt guilty (内疚的) for my previous behavior. As the weeks went by, I started to pay more attention to Tom. My friends noticed the change and asked about it. I shared my initial dislike and later admiration for Tom. They encouraged me to give him a chance, reminding me that everyone has their struggles. My parents, too, noticed my shift in attitude and discussed the importance of empathy and understanding. They told me about the times they faced difficulties, showing me that everyone has strengths beyond what people might see as weaknesses. The turning point in our relationship came during the school’s annual talent show. Tom, despite his fear of public speaking, decided to take part in it. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He chose to recite a poem he had written. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the talent show, Tom and I became close friends. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 He chose to recite a poem he had written. As he stepped onto the stage, I could see his hands shaking and his face turning red. But he took a deep breath and began. His stutter was still there, but his voice was filled with so much emotion and determination. The audience was silent, listening intently. When he finished, the room erupted in thunderous applause. I was on my feet, clapping the loudest, tears welling up in my eyes. After the talent show, Tom and I became close friends. I no longer cared about his stutter but focused on the wonderful person he was inside. We studied together, shared our dreams and fears. I learned that true friendship isn’t about surface appearances or speech, but about accepting and supporting each other unconditionally. Through Tom, I grew to be a more understanding and compassionate person. I realized that everyone has their battles to fight and that kindness and acceptance can make a world of difference in someone’s life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在高中时期与一位结巴同桌从陌生到成为亲密朋友的过程，以及这一过程中作者内心的转变和成长。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他选择朗诵自己写的一首诗。”以及第二段首句内容“才艺展示结束后，Tom和我成了亲密的朋友。”可知，第一段可描写Tom表演结束后，作者带头鼓掌。 ②由第二段首句内容“才艺展示结束后，Tom和我成了亲密的朋友。”可知，第二段可描写两人的关系非常亲密，而作者也明白了何谓真正的友谊。 2.续写线索：Tom选择朗诵自己写的诗——当Tom走上舞台时，作者可以看到他非常紧张——虽然Tom还是结巴，但是声音中充满了情感——结束时，作者带头鼓掌，眼中泛着泪光——才艺展示结束后，Tom和作者成为了亲密的朋友——作者不再在意他的结巴，只关注他内心的美好——作者和Tom分享生活中的一切——作者也开始明白了真正的友谊不在于外表或言语，而在于内心的美好 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满了：be filled with/be full of ②专注于：focus on/concentrate on ③意识到：realize/come to know 情绪类 ①专心地：intently/with attention 【点睛】【高分句型1】As he stepped onto the stage, I could see his hands shaking and his face turning red.（运用了as引导的状语从句） 【高分句型2】When he finished, the room erupted in thunderous applause.（运用了when引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 凤冈县第二中学2024-2025学年第二学期 高一英语学科第一次月考试题 考试时间：120分钟 第一部分 听力（共两节，每题1.5分，满分30分） 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，每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

B Students who are better able to understand and manage their emotions effectively, a skill known as emotional intelligence (EI), do better at school than their less-skilled classmates, according to research published by the American Psychological Association. “It’s not enough to be smart and hardworking. Students must also be able to understand and manage their emotions to succeed at school,” said Carolyn MacCann, lead author of the study. MacCann and her colleagues analyzed data from more than 160 studies, representing more than 42,000 students from 27 countries, published between 1998 and 2019. The students ranged in age from primary school to college. The researchers found that students with higher EI tended to get higher grades and better achievement test scores than those with lower EI scores. This finding held true even when controlling for intelligence and personality factors. What was most surprising to the researchers was the association held despite different ages. As for why EI can affect academic performance, MacCann believes a number of factors may come into play. “Students with higher EI may be better able to manage negative emotions, such as anxiety, boredom and disappointment, which can negatively affect academic performance,” she said. “Also, these students may be better able to manage the social world around them, forming better relationships with teachers, classmates and family, all of which are important to academic success.” Finally, the skills required for EI, such as understanding human motivation and emotion, may overlap with (与……重叠) the skills required to master certain subjects, such as history and language, giving students an advantage in those subject areas, according to MacCann. However, MacCann cautions against widespread testing of students to identify and target those with low EI as it may stigmatize (给……打上烙印) those students. Instead, she recommends interventions that involve the whole school, including additional teacher training and a focus on teacher well-being and emotional skills. “Programs that integrate emotional skill development into the existing curriculum would be beneficial, as research suggests that training works better when run by teachers rather than external specialists,” she said. “Increasing skills for everyone — not just those with low EI—would benefit everyone.” 4. What surprised the researchers most during MacCann’s study? A. Intelligence mattered more than EI for academic success. B. EI had an effect on learning for students of all ages. C. College students benefited more from EI than pupils. D. Personality affected academic performance greatly. 5. What can be a reason for the conclusion of MacCann’s study? A. High-EI students hardly experience negative emotions. B. High-EI students seldom develop social relationships. C. High-EI students tend to easily focus on their study. D High-EI students have helpful skills for certain subjects. 6. What does MacCann suggest in the last paragraph? A. Equipping teachers with emotional skills. B. Designing tests to identify students with low EI. C. Developing special programs for students with low EI. D. Employing emotional specialists to give training to students. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Should EI be taught in school? B. How can students develop high EI? C. Students with high EI do better in school D. Good students do better in managing emotions C Do you ever hear a friend speak on a topic with the belief that “everyone” thinks the same way? Do you often find yourself surrounded in a social media feed that is completely tailored (订做的) to you and your beliefs, reading along without the immediate realization? A social media echo chamber (社交媒体回音室) is when one experiences a tailored media information that leaves out opposing viewpoints and differing voices. Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube connect groups of like-minded users together based on shared content preferences. As a result, people see and take in information according to our preexisting beliefs and opinions. Social media companies therefore rely on algorithms (算法) to assess our interests and flood us with information that will keep our attention. The algorithms focus on what we “like”, and “share” to keep feeding content that makes us comfortable. In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone. While this becomes increasingly challenging, there are things we can do. The first step is to beef up your media sources. Adding in a few media sources with different opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye. Make sure that each thing you accept as truth is truly fact. Lastly, attempt to search out reliable new sources that are known for trying their best to leave out false information. By accepting that our media buffet (自助餐) on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber. 8. What is a result of the social media echo chamber? A. People keep reading for more differing viewpoints. B. People contact like-minded online users effectively. C. People rely on algorithms to evaluate their interests. D. People only get information confirming their beliefs. 9. What does the phrase “beef up” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Track. B. Identify. C. Improve. D. Provide. 10. Which of the following can help us get out of the echo chamber? A. Exposing ourselves to opposing voices. B. Criticizing all the things on social media. C Accepting our present beliefs and opinions. D. Researching primary sources of information. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To call on people to use algorithms frequently. B. To ask people not to take in information blindly. C. To promote the use of various social media sites. D. To inform people of new technology developments. D To the human ears, a field of flowers is silent, except the noise of birds and insects. To certain animal ears, however, a field of flowers is full of conversation. Now, scientists have discovered that plants actually make noise as a way of communicating. In other words, they talk! It has long been known that plants communicate when they are stressed. You need only watch a houseplant to realize that a plant lowers its head when it needs water, or turns yellow when it has been watered too much. Some plants also send out a bad smell when stressed to try and stop insects from taking advantage of their stressed state and eating them up. Now, a new study that was published in Cell and conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking. According to NoCamels, plants send out sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 kilohertz — out of the range (范围) of human ears, but within the range of some animals. “Bats (蝙蝠) make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partly hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, one of the authors of the study, told NoCamels. What is surprising about Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and group the sounds that plants make for the first time. Plants that are not stressed make about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed, thirsty, or injured make many hundreds of sounds per hour; and each of these sounds seems to show the certain type of stress the plant is under. This type of information could be key for agriculture (农业). Knowing what sounds their plants are making will help farmers determine whether their plants are in danger or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to allow their plants to grow well. 12. Why do some plants send out a bad smell? A. To show they hate birds. B. To say they are in need of water. C. To protect themselves from danger. D. To tell people to stop watering them. 13. Which of the following can hear plants most clearly? A. Humans. B. Cats. C. Dogs. D. Bats. 14. What does the last paragraph focus on? A. The big problems farmers have been facing. B.

Lengthy complaints will ruin the quality of your time together. ____16____ Actually there are some ways to get a complainer to stop without starting an argument. Change the subject. Some complainers will switch topics if you shift the conversation in a direction that interests them. If your neighbor is complaining about the phone company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend. If your coworker is complaining about your boss, ask whether he met the new employee. ____17____ Summarize the complaint. If your complainer keeps repeating himself, he may stop if you show that you’re listening. ____18____ Using “I” statements rather than “you” statements show that you’re interested rather than trying to shut the person down. Avoid saying the word complaining. Saying you hear their dissatisfaction gets the points across. Try to be honest. When you have things to do, tell the complainer that you must cut the conversation short. ____19____ You can simply be honest, even saying you need to move on so the conversation doesn’t bring you down – especially if it’s someone who’s complained to you many times before. ____20____ When it’s someone very close to you–your partner, sibling, or best friend–who stresses you out with a lot of negativity, it’s important to talk about the problem with an open heart. Otherwise, if you bottle up your feelings and continue listening to repeated complaints, you may grow angry or start avoiding the person. A. Have a heart-to-heart talk. B. Challenge the person to act. C. But you may not be brave enough to stop her. D. Just get them off the focus that they’re currently on. E. The problems start when complaining becomes a habit. F. You don’t need excuses such as a work deadline or a dentist appointment. G. Ask something like, “Can I tell you what I’ve heard and I understand how you feel?” 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分37.5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。 For ten years my father had been fighting cancer.

Little did I knew that my journey would be marked by an unexpected friendship. My desk mate, Tom, was a stutterer (结巴). Sometimes, it made me really uncomfortable. The first day of school was exciting. I found my seat and settled in, only to be greeted by a nervous stutter from my deskmate. “H-Hello, I’m T-Tom,” he said. I tried to be polite. But inside, I felt embarrassed (尴尬). I was worried about how his stuttering would affect me, especially during class discussions. I avoided him as much as possible, not wanting to be associated with the awkwardness he seemed to bring. One day, during a particularly challenging math class, I was struggling to understand a complex problem. The teacher, Mrs. Lee, noticed my confusion and asked if I needed help. Before I could answer, Tom spoke up. “I-I-I-I can help,” he offered, his stutter became mere noticeable under the pressure. To my surprise, he explained the problem clearly, and I began to see him in a new light. His intelligence and kindness shone through his stutter, and I felt guilty (内疚的) for my previous behavior. As the weeks went by, I started to pay more attention to Tom. My friends noticed the change and asked about it. I shared my initial dislike and later admiration for Tom. They encouraged me to give him a chance, reminding me that everyone has their struggles. My parents, too, noticed my shift in attitude and discussed the importance of empathy and understanding. They told me about the times they faced difficulties, showing me that everyone has strengths beyond what people might see as weaknesses. The turning point in our relationship came during the school’s annual talent show. Tom, despite his fear of public speaking, decided to take part in it. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He chose to recite a poem he had written. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the talent show, Tom and I became close friends. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
