The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship ancestors, however, here are several things you may not know about Clear and Bright. Spring Outings Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to appreciate the beauty of nature. Flying Kites Flying kites is an activity favored by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be chased away by doing this. Cuju Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs plugged in it. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival. Feasting on Qingtuan In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake. In order to make the cakes, people mash (捣碎) barnyard grass (艾草) to squeeze juice from it and mix the flour and juice to a paste. Then they put fillings into the paste and steam them. Pretty and delicate, qingtuan has a special flavor. 1. What is special about flying kites during Clear and Bright? A. Flying kites with lanterns in the evening. B. Flying kites to bring good luck. C. Cutting the kite string to let it fly freely. D. Flying kites both in the daytime and at night. 2. What can we learn from the passage? A. Clear and Bright is an important period for farming. B. Qingtuan is traditionally eaten during the period of Clear and Bright all over China. C. Cuju was invented by the Yellow Emperor to play in the Qingming Festival. D. Clear and Bright is one of the 24 solar terms whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival. 3. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How to celebrate the Qingming Festival. B. Flying kites in a special way. C. Ways to have fun during Clear and Bright. D. Some unknown customs about Clear and Bright. 【答案】1. C 2. A 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，说明了清明节气期间除了祭祀祖先几个另外的风俗。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中Flying Kites中“What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely.(在这一天放风筝的特别之处在于，人们在风筝在空中时剪断风筝线，让它自由地飞翔)”可知，在清明这个节气期间，特别的是风筝在空中的时候，人们会剪断绳子，让风筝在空中自由飞翔，这是放风筝的特殊之处。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring.(气温开始上升，降雨量增加，使春天成为种植作物的重要时期)”可知，在清明这个节气，气温升高，降雨量增加，是耕地和播种的关键时刻，由此判断出清明对于农业是一个很重要的时期。故选A。 【3题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“As is known, it is a time to worship ancestors, however, here are several things you may not know about Clear and Bright.(众所周知，这是一个祭祖的日子，然而，这里有一些你可能不知道的关于清明的事情)”可知，短文介绍的是人们可能不知道的清明期间的几个风俗习惯。故选D。 B I was sitting in my high school classroom, nervously tapping my pencil against the desk as I awaited the start of the English exam. As the clock struck, signaling the beginning of the exam, my heart began to race. I opened the exam booklet and scanned the questions, and I felt a wave of panic over me. The questions seemed foreign, and the topics unfamiliar. In a state of panic, I hurriedly wrote down my answers, hoping that somehow, by some stroke of luck, they would be correct. But as the minutes went by, I realized I couldn’t seem to make sense of the questions before me. As the final bell rang, I handed in my paper with a heavy heart. In the days that followed, I couldn’t shake the feeling of failure that hung over me like a dark cloud. I replayed the exam over and over in my mind, analyzing every question, every answer, searching for clues as to where I had gone wrong. But in the depression, a realization began to dawn on me I had failed, yes, but I had also learned valuable lessons along the way. Armed with this newfound wisdom, I ensured that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, devouring books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before. When the time came to retake the exam, I was ready. I approached each question with confidence and clarity, drawing upon the lessons I had learned from my previous missteps. When the results were announced, I held my breath as I scanned the list of names. And there it was — my name, shining brightly among the list of successful candidates. At that moment, all the hard work, all the late nights and early mornings, were worth it. And as I look back on that sunny afternoon in the high school classroom, I am grateful for the lessons it taught me, and the person it helped me become. 4. Why did the author panic when he first took the exam? A. He sat with a pounding heart. B. He was in a hurry when answering the questions. C. He was not familiar with the foreign language. D. He found the questions too difficult. 5. What did the author do after he failed in the exam? A. He attended valuable lessons in school. B. He retook the exam over and over again. C. He promised to arm himself with eagerness. D. He determined to engage himself in learning. 6. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “devouring”? A. Being targeted at. B. Being absorbed in. C. Being credited to. D. Being responsible for. 7. Which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree with according to his valuable lessons? A. All study and no play makes Jack a dull boy. B. If not us, who? If not now, when? C. The best is yet to come. D. Effort and diligence bring success. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者从一次考试失败的经历中变得坚忍不拔的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“As the clock struck, signaling the beginning of the exam, my heart began to race. I opened the exam booklet and scanned the questions, and I felt a wave of panic over me. The questions seemed foreign, and the topics unfamiliar.(当考试开始的钟声敲响时，我的心开始狂跳。我打开考试手册，浏览了一下问题，我感到一阵恐慌。这些问题似乎很陌生，话题也很陌生。)”和“But as the minutes went by, I realized I couldn’t seem to make sense of the questions before me. (但随着时间的推移，我意识到我似乎无法理解面前的问题。)”可知，作者感到恐慌是因为他发现考试的问题似乎很陌生，题目不熟悉，也就是觉得问题太难了。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Armed with this newfound wisdom, I ensured that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, devouring books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before.(有了这个新发现的智慧，我保证下次我会做得更好。我以全新的决心投入到学习中，如饥似渴地啃书本，以前所未有的热情复习过去的考试。)”可知，作者考试失败后，下定决心投入到学习中，如饥似渴地读书和练习以前的考试题目。故选D项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词句中“I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, devouring books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before.(我以全新的决心投入到学习中，devouring书本，以前所未有的热情复习过去的考试。)”可知，此处为作者全神贯注地阅读书籍。故可猜测划线单词devouring为“全神贯注地阅读”，与B项Being absorbed in“全神贯注”意思一致。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But in the depression, a realization began to dawn on me I had failed, yes, but I had also learned valuable lessons along the way. Armed with this newfound wisdom, I ensured that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, devouring books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before.(但在沮丧期间，我开始意识到我失败了，是的，但我也在这条路上学到了宝贵的教训。有了这个新发现的智慧，我保证下次我会做得更好。我以全新的决心投入到学习中，全神贯注地阅读书籍，以前所未有的热情复习过去的考试。)”以及倒数第二段中“At that moment, all the hard work, all the late nights and early mornings, were worth it. (在那一刻，所有的努力工作，所有的熬夜和早起，都是值得的。)”可推知，根据作者的宝贵经验，作者最有可能同意的是努力和勤奋会带来好运。故选D项。 C You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It’s the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed of Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search shows plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart’s music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is not clear. The phrase “the Mozart effect” was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that aroused real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was no doubt a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, we’ll become more intelligent. The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the USA, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to (接触) Mozart’s music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them to produce better milk. I’ll leave the debate on the effect on milk production to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of 16 different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary (临时的) improvement in the ability to mental health, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn’t make us more intelligent. 8. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children. B. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent. C. There are few products on the Internet about Mozart’s music. D. There is little scientific evidence to support the Mozart effect. 9. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 suggests that ________. A. people were strongly against the idea B. the idea was accepted by many people C. Mozart played an important part in people’s life D. the US government helped promote the idea 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the Mozart effect? A. Supportive. B. Subjective. C. Doubtful. D. Positive. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Listening to Mozart, necessary? B. What music is beneficial? C What is the Mozart effect? D. To be or not to be? 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了“莫扎特效应”这一概念的提出、传播及其缺乏科学依据的探讨。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It’s the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed of Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search shows plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart’s music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is not clear. (你可能听说过莫扎特效应。这一理念认为，如果儿童甚至婴儿聆听莫扎特创作的音乐，他们会变得更加聪明。在互联网上快速搜索一下，就会发现大量可助你一臂之力的产品。无论你处于什么年龄段，都有光盘和书籍可帮助你领略莫扎特音乐的力量。但当涉及到它能让你变得更聪明的科学证据时，情况就不那么明朗了。)”可知，几乎没有科学证据支持莫扎特效应。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children (这个想法took off，成千上万的父母给孩子播放莫扎特的音乐)”可知，这个想法被很多人接受，所以took off在这里的意思是“这个想法被很多人接受”。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“More research was carried out but an analysis of 16 different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to mental health, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn’t make us more intelligent. (进行了更多的研究，但对16项不同研究的分析证实，听音乐确实能暂时提高心理健康能力，但这种好处是短暂的，它不会让我们更聪明。)”可知，作者对莫扎特效持怀疑态度。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It’s the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed of Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search shows plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart’s music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is not clear. (你可能听说过莫扎特效应。这一理念认为，如果儿童甚至婴儿聆听莫扎特创作的音乐，他们会变得更加聪明。在互联网上快速搜索一下，就会发现大量可助你一臂之力的产品。无论你处于什么年龄段，都有光盘和书籍可帮助你领略莫扎特音乐的力量。但当涉及到它能让你变得更聪明的科学证据时，情况就不那么明朗了。)”可知，文章主要探讨了听莫扎特的音乐是否真的有必要，即莫扎特效应是否真实有效。因此，A选项“Listening to Mozart, necessary? (听莫扎特的音乐，有必要吗？)”最符合文章主旨。故选A。 D Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms (症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious. As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries (边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted. Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible (灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school. The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom. 12. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly? A. Their teachers help them. B. They take some medicine. C. Their parents talk with them. D. They change their attention. 13. What does the example in paragraph 3 show? A. Freedom must be given at anytime. B. Teens are mad at being controlled. C. Teens need both freedom and proper rules. D. Rules must be absolutely strict for teens. 14. What should parents do about their teens’ choices? A. Support their helpful hobbies. B. Tell them which college to attend. C. Cancel their after-school activities. D. Get them away from singing pop songs. 15. What can we learn in the last paragraph? A. Parents should ignore their teen’s risky behaviors. B. Teens should be allowed to make any choice they want. C. Parents must step in when teens’ choices are dangerous. D. Strict punishments are unnecessary for teens. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要谈论了父母如何与成长中的青少年相处。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But these symptoms (症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. (但这些症状通常很快就会消失，因为青少年开始学习新的课程，或与朋友见面，以防止自己思考当前的困扰。)”可知，青少年对不愉快的感觉会很快消失是因为他们改变了注意力。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible (灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school. (父母需要制定规则，同时也要保持灵活性，尊重成长中的青少年对自由的需求。例如，青少年经常会感到沮丧，尴尬，甚至生气，尽管他们想要自由，他们仍然需要征求父母的同意去朋友家，或需要他们的母亲送他们去学校。)”可知，举例是为了说明青少年既需要自由又需要适当的规则。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. (美国教育部表示，父母应该尊重和支持青少年的选择，只要这些选择不会产生长期的有害影响。)”可知，对于青少年，父母应该支持他们有益的爱好。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom. (然而，如果那个青少年酒后驾车，父母必须通过严厉的惩罚来教导他们，随着自由的增加，错误的选择会有不良后果)”可知，当青少年的选择危险时，父母必须介入，故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据下面短文，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。 Why dogs chase their tails? There are some answers to this question which might surprise you. While tail chasing can be a harmless behavior, sometimes it can indicate a potential issue requiring a vet visit. Below are some common meanings behind your dog chasing its tail. ____16____ It might look like a strange activity to humans, but tail- chasing is a simple way for dogs to let loose and have a little fun. ____17____ Just keep in mind that a constantly bored or stressed dog might be feeling left out, so make sure its basic needs are being met, including exercise and socialization. Your dog is feeling stressed. On the other hand, uncontrollable tail- chasing behavior could be a warning sign that your dog is anxious or stressed. ____18____ By the way, this fruitless and frustrating behavior is what led to the saying “like a dog chasing its tail”. Your dog wants your attention. Tail- chasing is actually a go- to behavior for young dogs who are playing and learning about their bodies. And it’s hard not to smile when you see this happening, especially in puppies, because it’s funny and adorable. But this type of response can cause your pup to keep doing it. Try not to encourage this behavior. ____19____ Your dog may have intestinal parasites (肠道寄生虫). This is another common reason why dogs chase their tails. It’s also a reason why dogs chew their tails, too. Infections are generally common in young dogs and can even be deadly in some puppies if left untreated. ____20____ If your dog is chasing their tail a lot, it’s best to rule out any medical issues first, so always get in touch with your vet who will be able to examine them and find the root of the problem. A. Your dog wants exercise. B. Your dog is expressing its emotion. C. Your pup will form the habit of tail chasing. D. Instead, provide a distraction by giving your dog a new toy or going on a walk. E. Find out what’s at the root of your dog’s anxiety and then address that problem. F. Common types of parasites include tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and so on. G. If a dog doesn’t have anything or anyone to play with, it might need to entertain itself. 【答案】16. B 17. G 18. E 19. D 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了狗追尾巴的几种原因和相应的建议。 【16题详解】 空格处是该部分的主题句，根据下文的句子“It might look like a strange activity to humans, but tail- chasing is a simple way for dogs to let loose and have a little fun.(这对人类来说可能是一种奇怪的活动，但对狗来说，追尾巴是一种简单的放松和娱乐的方式。)”和“Just keep in mind that a constantly bored or stressed dog might be feeling left out, so make sure its basic needs are being met, including exercise and socialization.(只要记住，一只经常感到无聊或压力大的狗可能会感到被冷落，所以要确保它的基本需求得到满足，包括锻炼和社交。)”可知，追尾巴是狗表达情感的一种方式。所以，B项“Your dog is expressing its emotion.(你的狗在表达它的情感。)”填入空格处，可以作为该部分的主题句，符合语境。故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据空格前的句子“It might look like a strange activity to humans, but tail- chasing is a simple way for dogs to let loose and have a little fun.(这对人类来说可能是一种奇怪的活动，但对狗来说，追尾巴是一种简单的放松和娱乐的方式。)”可知， 追尾巴是狗的一种娱乐方式，为什么它们会采取这种娱乐方式呢？G项“If a dog doesn’t have anything or anyone to play with, it might need to entertain itself.(如果一只狗没有任何东西或任何人可以玩，它可能需要娱乐自己。)”解释了这其中的原因：狗没有任何东西或任何人可以玩。所以G项填入空格处符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据空格前的句子“On the other hand, uncontrollable tail- chasing behavior could be a warning sign that your dog is anxious or stressed.(另一方面，无法控制的追尾行为可能是你的狗焦虑或有压力的警告信号。)”可知，追尾巴表明你的狗可能焦虑或有压力，这种情况下应该怎样做呢？E项“Find out what’s at the root of your dog’s anxiety and then address that problem.(找出你的狗焦虑的根源，然后解决这个问题。)”给出了建议。所以，E项填入空格处，符合语境，上文的anxious和E项中的anxiety是关键词。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据空格前的句子“And it’s hard not to smile when you see this happening, especially in puppies, because it’s funny and adorable. But this type of response can cause your pup to keep doing it. Try not to encourage this behavior.(当你看到这种情况发生时，很难不微笑，尤其是在小狗身上，因为这很有趣，也很可爱。 但是这种类型的反应会导致你的狗狗继续这样做。 尽量不要鼓励这种行为。)”可知，作者建议不要用微笑这样的行为鼓励狗的追尾巴行为，那么见到狗追尾巴应该怎样做呢？D项“Instead, provide a distraction by giving your dog a new toy or going on a walk.(相反，给你的狗一个新玩具或散散步来分散注意力。)”给出了建议，所以，D项填入空格处，符合语境。故选D项。 【20题详解】 根据该部分的主题句“Your dog may have intestinal parasites(你的狗可能有肠道寄生虫)”和空格前的句子“This is another common reason why dogs chase their tails. It’s also a reason why dogs chew their tails, too. Infections are generally common in young dogs and can even be deadly in some puppies if left untreated.(这是狗追逐尾巴的另一个常见原因。这也是狗咬尾巴的原因之一。感染在幼犬中很常见，如果不及时治疗，一些幼犬甚至可能致命。)”可知，空格处的句子应该涉及到狗可能会感染的寄生虫，所以，F项“Common types of parasites include tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and so on.(常见的寄生虫有绦虫、蛔虫、钩虫等。)”填入空格处，符合语境。故选F项。 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。 If you have been to Harbin in winter, but didn’t have a ____21____ to see people do winter-swimming, I am sure you will feel it’s a(n) ____22____.

Because of a stutter (口吃), he was often laughed at by his former classmates. Therefore, he was very shy, and didn’t talk much. This made Mike feel extremely lonely. He often sat alone in the corner during breaks, watching his classmates play and laugh together. He longed to join them but was too afraid to take the first step. His stutter felt like a barrier, separating him from the rest of the world. In fact, he wanted to communicate with his new classmates, but was afraid of being made fun of by them, just like before. So he chose to stay alone and hardly talk to anyone. Noticing his behaviour, Mrs White, his English teacher, approached him, and asked about his problem. Realizing how Mike had difficulty expressing himself in class and fitting in, she decided to help him. In order to encourage Mike to be brave, she told him everyone was different, and praised his creativity and efforts. She would always smile at him and declare, “You did a good job! ” She also showed Mike’s report to the class, praising how careful his writing was. One day, Mrs White asked every student to participate in a speech contest in class. Nervous and anxious, Mike felt his heart beating fast. It was impossible for him to stand in front of the class to finish a speech. What if he stuttered? What if they laughed at him? Discouraged by these thoughts, he went to Mrs White’s office after class, asking if he could skip the contest. Smiling gently, Mrs White encouraged him to believe in his abilities and offered to help him prepare for it. 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。 With Mrs. White’s continuous encouragement, Mike started to have some small changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the moment came and it was Mike’s turn. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】With Mrs White’s encouragement, Mike started to have some small changes. In the classroom, he began to interact with his classmates more frequently. During breaks, instead of sitting alone in the corner, he joined their games and laughter, sharing jokes and stories. After school, he practiced speaking in front of the mirror, repeating words until they flowed more smoothly, and even recorded himself to track progress. Gradually, his stutter lessened as he grew more engaged. Mrs. White, noticing his progress, helped him prepare for the upcoming speech contest by practicing his speech together and offering constructive feedback. Finally the moment came and it was Mike’s turn. As he walked to the front, his heart pounded. Suddenly, Mrs. White’s encouraging words echoed in his ears, making him gather his courage and begin his speech calmly. Clearly and steadily, he delivered his message despite a few stutters. As his speech ended, Mrs White and his classmates gave him thumbs-up and said “You did a good gob! ” With watery eyes, Mike smiled, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over him. He realized that everyone could overcome himself with hard work and support. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，芬奇学校的新学生迈克因为口吃不敢与同学交流、玩耍。但是，他渴望加入同学们中去。注意到他的行为后，他的英语老师怀特太太决定帮助他。在老师的鼓励和帮助下，迈克开始改变，并决定参加班里的演讲比赛，他积极练习为比赛做准备。最后他顺利完成比赛，得到大家的赞许。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在怀特太太的不断鼓励下，迈克开始有了一些小的变化。”可知，第一段可描写迈克的改变、积极练习和老师对他的帮助。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，轮到迈克了。”可知，第二段可描写迈克参加演讲比赛的过程和完成比赛后的感受。 2.续写线索：改变——积极练习——老师帮助——参加比赛——得到赞许——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①注意到：notice/take note of ②帮助：help/assist ③意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类 ①镇静地：calmly/with calmness ②赞扬：thumbs-up/praise 【点睛】[高分句型1] After school, he practiced speaking in front of the mirror, repeating words until they flowed more smoothly, and even recorded himself to track progress.（运用了现在分词repeating作状语和until引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] As he walked to the front, his heart pounded.（运用了as引导的时间状语） [高分句型3] He realized that everyone could overcome himself with hard work and support.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2027届高一年级第二学期月考试题 英语 第一部分 听力 (共两节，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，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.

The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship ancestors, however, here are several things you may not know about Clear and Bright. Spring Outings Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to appreciate the beauty of nature. Flying Kites Flying kites is an activity favored by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be chased away by doing this. Cuju Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs plugged in it. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival. Feasting on Qingtuan In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake. In order to make the cakes, people mash (捣碎) barnyard grass (艾草) to squeeze juice from it and mix the flour and juice to a paste. Then they put fillings into the paste and steam them. Pretty and delicate, qingtuan has a special flavor. 1. What is special about flying kites during Clear and Bright? A. Flying kites with lanterns in the evening. B. Flying kites to bring good luck. C. Cutting the kite string to let it fly freely. D. Flying kites both in the daytime and at night. 2. What can we learn from the passage? A. Clear and Bright is an important period for farming. B. Qingtuan is traditionally eaten during the period of Clear and Bright all over China. C. Cuju was invented by the Yellow Emperor to play in the Qingming Festival. D. Clear and Bright is one of the 24 solar terms whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival. 3. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How to celebrate the Qingming Festival. B. Flying kites in a special way. C. Ways to have fun during Clear and Bright. D. Some unknown customs about Clear and Bright. B I was sitting in my high school classroom, nervously tapping my pencil against the desk as I awaited the start of the English exam. As the clock struck, signaling the beginning of the exam, my heart began to race. I opened the exam booklet and scanned the questions, and I felt a wave of panic over me. The questions seemed foreign, and the topics unfamiliar. In a state of panic, I hurriedly wrote down my answers, hoping that somehow, by some stroke of luck, they would be correct. But as the minutes went by, I realized I couldn’t seem to make sense of the questions before me. As the final bell rang, I handed in my paper with a heavy heart. In the days that followed, I couldn’t shake the feeling of failure that hung over me like a dark cloud. I replayed the exam over and over in my mind, analyzing every question, every answer, searching for clues as to where I had gone wrong. But in the depression a realization began to dawn on me I had failed, yes, but I had also learned valuable lessons along the way. Armed with this newfound wisdom, I ensured that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, devouring books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before. When the time came to retake the exam, I was ready. I approached each question with confidence and clarity, drawing upon the lessons I had learned from my previous missteps. When the results were announced, I held my breath as I scanned the list of names. And there it was — my name, shining brightly among the list of successful candidates. At that moment, all the hard work, all the late nights and early mornings, were worth it. And as I look back on that sunny afternoon in the high school classroom, I am grateful for the lessons it taught me, and the person it helped me become. 4.

All study and no play makes Jack a dull boy. B. If not us, who? If not now, when? C. The best is yet to come. D. Effort and diligence bring success. C You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It’s the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed of Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search shows plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart’s music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is not clear. The phrase “the Mozart effect” was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that aroused real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was no doubt a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, we’ll become more intelligent. The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the USA, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to (接触) Mozart’s music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them to produce better milk. I’ll leave the debate on the effect on milk production to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of 16 different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary (临时的) improvement in the ability to mental health, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn’t make us more intelligent. 8. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children. B. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent. C. There are few products on the Internet about Mozart’s music. D. There is little scientific evidence to support the Mozart effect. 9. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 suggests that ________. A. people were strongly against the idea B. the idea was accepted by many people C Mozart played an important part in people’s life D. the US government helped promote the idea 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the Mozart effect? A. Supportive. B. Subjective. C. Doubtful. D. Positive. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Listening to Mozart, necessary? B. What music is beneficial? C. What is the Mozart effect? D. To be or not to be? D Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms (症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious. As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries (边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted. Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible (灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school. The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom. 12. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly? A. Their teachers help them. B. They take some medicine. C. Their parents talk with them. D. They change their attention. 13.

Because of a stutter (口吃), he was often laughed at by his former classmates. Therefore, he was very shy, and didn’t talk much. This made Mike feel extremely lonely. He often sat alone in the corner during breaks, watching his classmates play and laugh together. He longed to join them but was too afraid to take the first step. His stutter felt like a barrier, separating him from the rest of the world. In fact, he wanted to communicate with his new classmates, but was afraid of being made fun of by them, just like before. So he chose to stay alone and hardly talk to anyone. Noticing his behaviour, Mrs White, his English teacher, approached him, and asked about his problem. Realizing how Mike had difficulty expressing himself in class and fitting in, she decided to help him. In order to encourage Mike to be brave, she told him everyone was different, and praised his creativity and efforts. She would always smile at him and declare, “You did a good job! ” She also showed Mike’s report to the class, praising how careful his writing was. One day, Mrs White asked every student to participate in a speech contest in class. Nervous and anxious, Mike felt his heart beating fast. It was impossible for him to stand in front of the class to finish a speech. What if he stuttered? What if they laughed at him? Discouraged by these thoughts, he went to Mrs White’s office after class, asking if he could skip the contest. Smiling gently, Mrs White encouraged him to believe in his abilities and offered to help him prepare for it. 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。 With Mrs. White’s continuous encouragement, Mike started to have some small changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the moment came and it was Mike’s turn. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
