(你报名时会收到一封确认邮件，在活动前一周和前一天以及活动当天早上还会收到一封提醒邮件，里面有进入活动的链接和说明。)” 可知，通过查看邮箱可以确认报名。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段 “Oscar Oviedo Velasco has over 15 years of experience as a local expert and group leader. He specializes in archeology, history, and art, and has conducted studies on early textile (纺织品) and ceramic techniques. (奥斯卡・奥维多・贝拉斯科作为当地专家和团队负责人拥有超过 15 年的经验。他专门研究考古学、历史和艺术，并对早期纺织品和陶瓷技术进行了研究。)” 可知，他对这座城市（文中指库斯科）的历史等方面有长期的研究。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It includes a live, one - hour lecture, an interactive Q & A session delivered by a qualified expert, live tech support, and a recording of the lecture given after 2 weeks. (它包括一场一小时的现场讲座、由合格专家进行的互动问答环节、现场技术支持以及两周后提供的讲座视品。)” 可知，参与者可以获得在线讲座的视频回放。故选B。 B When planning her outfit for an upcoming awards ceremony, Lily Murphy was concerned about two things—how much she spent on clothes and the impact on the environment. The solution was to rent a dress from someone. Using an app called HURR, Murphy rented a dress to attend her event. As a younger generation of consumers takes a more sustainable approach to what it wears and also demands to have fresh looks for its social media posts, networks that link buyers and sellers have emerged. By Rotation, a London-based company, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, who was concerned about the high levels of textile waste she saw. Users can borrow or lend designer dresses and bags, with the option of the item either posted or collected. HURR, which Murphy used, operates in a similar way. Pieces have to be less than two years old and in “excellent condition”. The rental fee is based on the price of the piece, and the fees are 15 percent for both sides. There is also a service fee of £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge of £10, shipping of £10 and a damage protection fee of £5, which is optional. If something is damaged, the owner can bill the borrower through By Rotation. “If they refuse to pay, the borrower’s details can be handed over to the lender for them to pursue the matter in the small claims court, although this has not happened yet,” Kabra says. HURR founder Victoria Prew says borrowers are asked to pay the market value if an item is damaged beyond repair. What you won’t find on the new generation of lending apps are high-street brands where shoppers can buy pieces for the same amount they would pay to rent a high-end piece. 4. What do we know about By Rotation? A. Its items are less than two years old. B. Borrowers can’t find high-street brands there. C. The owner of clothes often bills the borrower. D. Its items can only be collected by the borrower. 5. If you rent a dress priced at £100 on HURR and have it posted to you, how much would you pay at least? A. £40.15. B. £45.15. C. £50.15. D. £60.15. 6. People choose to rent clothes for the following reasons EXCEPT ______. A. spending less on clothes B. reducing their environmental impact C. having access to high-street brands D. having more fresh looks for social media post 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How to rent clothes online B. The effects of renting clothes C. Clothes-rental apps are taking off D. The best clothes-rental companies: HURR and By Rotation 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是随着年轻一代消费者对穿着采取更可持续的方式，并希望在社交媒体上展示新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的服装租赁网络平台应运而生。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“What you won’t find on the new generation of lending apps are high-street brands where shoppers can buy pieces for the same amount they would pay to rent a high-end piece.(在新一代租赁应用程序上，你找不到那些与租用高端服装价格相当的高街品牌。)”可知，在By Rotation上，你无法找到高街品牌。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The rental fee is based on the price of the piece, and the fees are 15 percent for both sides. There is also a service fee of £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge of £10, shipping of £10 and a damage protection fee of £5, which is optional.(租赁费根据物品价格而定，买卖双方均需支付15%的费用。此外，还需支付5.15英镑的服务费、10英镑的干洗费、10英镑的运费，以及5英镑的损坏保护费（此项为可选）。)”可知，租赁双方都要向HURR支付费用，各给所租衣服费用的15%，即15英镑，再加上服务费5.15英镑，干洗费10英镑，邮费10英镑，共计40.15英镑。题目问的是至少花多少钱，因为损坏保护费是可选的，所以没有计算在内。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Lily Murphy was concerned about two things—how much she spent on clothes and the impact on the environment.(Lily Murphy担心两件事——她在衣服上花了多少钱，以及对环境的影响。)”和第二段中的“As a younger generation of consumers takes a more sustainable approach to what it wears and also demands to have fresh looks for its social media posts, networks that link buyers and sellers have emerged.(随着年轻一代消费者在穿着上采取更为可持续的方式，同时又要为社交媒体帖子打造新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的网络平台应运而生。)”可知，A、B、D三项正确，排除。根据最后一段中的“What you won’t find on the new generation of lending apps are high-street brands where shoppers can buy pieces for the same amount they would pay to rent a high-end piece.(在新一代租赁应用程序上，你找不到那些与租用高端服装价格相当的高街品牌。)”可知，C项错误。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“By Rotation, a London-based company, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, who was concerned about the high levels of textile waste she saw. Users can borrow or lend designer dresses and bags, with the option of the item either posted or collected.(2019年，Eshita Kabra创立了总部位于伦敦的By Rotation公司，当时她对自己目睹的大量纺织废料深感忧虑。用户可以借出或借入设计师品牌的礼服和包包，既可以选择邮寄，也可以选择上门取货。)”可知，本文主要讲的是随着年轻一代消费者对穿着采取更可持续的方式，并希望在社交媒体上展示新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的服装租赁网络平台应运而生，因此最好的题目是C选项“Clothes-rental apps are taking off(服装租赁应用正在兴起)”。故选C。 C There’s so much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and protecting forests won’t solve the problem. When plants and trees die, the carbon they’ve stored gets released again. Moreover, the CO2 in the atmosphere is much more dilute than in, for example, waste gas from a power station or a steel plant. Capturing CO2 from the air is the most expensive application of carbon capture. Direct Air Capture (DAC) is one type of technological carbon removal, which obtains CO2 directly from the atmosphere, at any location, unlike carbon capture which is generally carried out at the point of emissions. The CO2 can be permanently stored in deep geological formations or used for a variety of applications. Graphyte is a US company working on DAC. The company claims its carbon capture method is cheap, mainly because it lets plants do the work. The company collects unwanted wood products from farmers and furniture companies. It dries this “biomass” completely so that it can’t break down. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants into small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep underground. Graphyte says its process doesn’t use much energy and can work anywhere. The plant and tree material the process uses would release carbon if it wasn’t treated. And the cost is less than $100 to capture a ton of CO2. The company is building a factory, but it’s not running yet. Not everyone is excited about carbon removal. Some people worry that it will take too long for DAC technology to become powerful enough to make a difference. Others worry that focusing on removing carbon could take attention away from more important climate actions, like switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. But experts say the decision isn’t to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air. 8. What does the author mainly intend to tell us in the first paragraph? A. Trees can purify the air in the sky. B. Plants release more carbon dioxide. C. Removing carbon from the air is challenging. D. CO2 emission reduction is urgently needed. 9. What does the underlined word “dilute” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Beneficial. B. Thin. C. Harmful. D. Concentrated. 10. What can we know about Graphyte’s DAC project? A. Its cost is relatively low. B. It is in good operation now. C. Its working condition is demanding. D. It turns carbon into building materials. 11. What is the experts’ opinion about DAC technology? A. It will make a difference soon. B. It can replace renewable energy in time. C. It will result in more environmental concerns. D. It can work together with other climate measures. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了直接空气捕获（DAC）这一技术性碳移除方式。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“There’s so much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and protecting forests won’t solve the problem. When plants and trees die, the carbon they’ve stored gets released again. Moreover, the CO2 in the atmosphere is much more dilute than in, for example, waste gas from a power station or a steel plant. Capturing CO2 from the air is the most expensive application of carbon capture.(空气中二氧化碳（CO₂）含量过高，仅仅靠植树造林和保护森林并不能解决这一问题。当植物和树木死亡时，它们储存的碳会再次释放出来。此外，大气中的二氧化碳浓度比例如发电站或钢铁厂排放的废气中的二氧化碳浓度要低得多。从空气中捕获二氧化碳是碳捕获技术中成本最高的应用方式。)”可知，本段中作者旨在告诉我们除掉空气中的碳是具有挑战性的，故选C。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段的“the CO2 in the atmosphere(大气中的二氧化碳)”和“waste gas from a power station or a steel plant(来自发电厂或钢铁厂的废气)”及常识可知，空气中的二氧化碳要比来自发电站或者钢铁厂的废气中的二氧化碳更稀薄，dilute的意思是“稀薄的”，和Thin意思相近。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“The company claims its carbon capture method is cheap, mainly because it lets plants do the work.(该公司声称其碳捕获方法很便宜，主要是因为它让植物来做这项工作。)”可知，这个公司声称它的碳捕捉方法比较便宜。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段的“But experts say the decision isn’t to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air.(但专家表示，这个决定并不是选择其中之一。世界需要停止使用化石燃料，减少空气中的碳。)”可知，专家认为DAC技术可以与其他气候措施协同工作。故选D。 D Why are some people more motivated to handle difficult things? And is there a way to make doing difficult things easy? To answer this question, we need to look at this: dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is often considered a pleasure molecule. But that’s not quite what it does. Dopamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the motivation to get up and do stuff. In fact, your brain develops priorities in large part based on how much dopamine it’s expecting to get. If an activity releases too little dopamine, you won’t have much motivation to do it. But if an activity releases a lot of dopamine, you’ll be motivated to repeat it, over and over. So which behavior releases dopamine? Any activity where you anticipate there’s a potential reward releases it. And in today’s digital society, we are flooding our brains with unnaturally high amounts of dopamine on a daily basis, even if we don’t know it. Some examples of high dopamine behavior include: scrolling through social media websites, playing video games, etc. And you might think, “Oh so what? It’s not like it’s harming me in any way.” But you’d be wrong. Our bodies have a biological system called homeostasis (体内动态平衡). Whenever an imbalance occurs, our body adapts to it. Essentially, your brain gets used to having high levels of dopamine and those levels become your new normal. Thus you develop a dopamine tolerance. This can be a huge problem because the things that don’t give you as much dopamine don’t interest you any longer. That’s why people tend to prefer playing video games or browsing the Internet, compared to studying or working on their business. But it is possible to make doing difficult things feel easier. Separate yourself from the unnaturally high amounts of dopamine, or at least expose yourself to it far less frequently. Only then will normal, everyday, low dopamine activities become exciting again and you’ll be able to do them for longer. That’s why you might want to limit your phone and computer usage, along with other high dopamine-releasing behavior. We are all dopamine addicts to a certain extent. And that’s a good thing because dopamine motivates us to achieve our goals and improve ourselves. But it’s up to you to decide where you’re going to get your dopamine. Are you going to get it from things that don’t benefit you? Or are you going to get it from working on your long-term goals? The choice is yours. 12. When is dopamine released? A. When we have the motivation to do stuff. B. When potential rewards can be obtained. C. When we take pleasure in the behavior. D. When difficult things come into being. 13. What can we learn from the text? A. Dopamine does great harm to our body. B. It’s hard for our body to keep the balance. C. Dopamine tolerance keeps us away from games. D. Video games produce more dopamine than study. 14. What is the purpose of paragraph 5? A. To offer solutions to dopamine tolerance. B. To introduce the effects of dopamine. C. To explain why dopamine is harmful. D. To stress the importance of dopamine. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward dopamine? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了多巴胺对人们动机和行为的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So which behavior releases dopamine? Any activity where you anticipate there’s a potential reward releases it.(那么哪种行为会释放多巴胺呢？任何你预期有潜在奖励的活动都会释放它)”可知，大脑释放多巴胺的前提是你预期你所参与的活动会有潜在的回报。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“This can be a huge problem because the things that don’t give you as much dopamine don’t interest you any longer. That’s why people tend to prefer playing video games or browsing the Internet, compared to studying or working on their business.(这可能是一个大问题，因为不能给你那么多多巴胺的事情不再让你感兴趣。这就是为什么人们更喜欢玩电子游戏或浏览互联网，而不是学习或从事自己的业务)”可知，那些不能给你许多多巴胺的东西不会让你再感兴趣，而与学习和工作相比较，人们更愿意玩游戏，说明玩游戏会产生更多的多巴胺。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Separate yourself from the unnaturally high amounts of dopamine, or at least expose yourself to it far less frequently. Only then will normal, everyday, low dopamine activities become exciting again and you’ll be able to do them for longer. That’s why you might want to limit your phone and computer usage, along with other high dopamine-releasing behavior.(让自己远离不自然的大量多巴胺，或者至少让自己少接触多巴胺。只有这样，正常的、日常的、低多巴胺的活动才会再次变得令人兴奋，你才能做得更长。这就是为什么你可能想要限制手机和电脑的使用，以及其他高多巴胺释放行为)”可知，本段的目的是提出解决多巴胺耐受问题的方法。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Dopamine is often considered a pleasure molecule. But that’s not quite what it does. Dopamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the motivation to get up and do stuff.(多巴胺通常被认为是一种快乐分子。但这并不完全是它的作用。多巴胺让我们产生欲望。正是这种渴望给了我们起床做事的动力)”，第四段“Essentially, your brain gets used to having high levels of dopamine and those levels become your new normal. Thus you develop a dopamine tolerance. This can be a huge problem because the things that don’t give you as much dopamine don’t interest you any longer.(从本质上讲，你的大脑习惯了高水平的多巴胺，这些水平成为你的新常态。因此，你会产生多巴胺耐受性。这可能是一个大问题，因为不能给你那么多多巴胺的事情不再让你感兴趣)”和最后一段“We are all dopamine addicts to a certain extent. And that’s a good thing because dopamine motivates us to achieve our goals and improve ourselves.(在某种程度上，我们都是多巴胺成瘾者。这是一件好事，因为多巴胺会激励我们实现目标，提高自我)”可知，作者介绍了多巴胺可以给我们带来的好处，多巴胺耐受的问题，而且在最后一段作者也表示多巴胺是个好东西，所以作者对于多巴胺的态度是客观的。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。 Linking a word to brain areas responsible for movement strengthens the memory of its meaning. ____16____. They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) to deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners. “Our results provide neuroscientific evidence for why learning techniques that involve the body’s motor system should be used more often,” neuroscientist Brian Mathias said in a news release. As Mathias and his colleagues describe in the Journal of Neuroscience, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a total of 90 invented artificial words over four days. While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were at the same time shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word. ____17____. Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German in a multiple-choice test. ____18____. The device sent weak magnetic pulses to their primary motor cortex (皮层) — the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements. When these interfering signals were active, the subjects found it harder to recall the words accompanied by gestures. When the device sent no interfering signals, they found it easier to remember the words. The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures. ____19____. The effect did not occur when the test subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures when learning vocabulary. In contrast, children — unlike adults — seem to benefit from pictures as much as gestures in the long run. ____20____. But it is not only the motor component itself that promotes learning. A. They will receive interfering signals constantly B. This is the conclusion a research team reached C. It can be helpful for us to study adults’ memory D. This applied to concrete words as well as abstract ones E. At the same time, they had a device attached to their heads F. When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves G. The study indicates the adult brain uses motor areas to remember foreign-language words 【答案】16. B 17. F 18. E 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究，表明通过肢体动作学习外语词汇时，运动皮层有助于记忆，儿童则能从图片和动作中获得相似的学习效果。 【16题详解】 根据上文的“Linking a word to brain areas responsible for movement strengthens the memory of its meaning.(将单词与负责运动的大脑区域联系起来可以加强对其意义的记忆)”可知，此处介绍了记忆单词的方法，结合下文的“They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) to deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners.(他们使用磁脉冲故意干扰语言学习者的大脑这些区域。)”可知，此空应涉及到与they指代的表示复数意义的内容，B选项“This is the conclusion a research team reached(这是一个研究团队得出的结论)”中的this指代的是上文提到的记忆单词的方法，且其中的“a research team”与下文中的主语They相呼应。故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据上文的“While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were at the same time shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word.(当测试对象首次听到新词汇时，同时会观看一段视频，视频中一个人做出与该词意义相符的手势。)”可知，受试者在听到新词汇的同时观看与词义匹配的手势视频，结合空格所处的位置可知，此空应是对上文内容的总结或者是对空前内容进一步解释，F选项“When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves(当单词重复时，受试者自己做出相应的手势。)”承接上文，进一步说明实验细节，符合语境。故选F项。 【18题详解】 根据上文的“Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German in a multiple-choice test.(五个月后，他们被要求在多项选择测试中将所学的词汇翻译成德语。)”可知，受试对象被要求将所学的词汇翻译成德语，结合下文的“The device sent weak magnetic pulses to their primary motor cortex (皮层) — the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements.(该设备向他们的初级运动皮层（控制自主手臂运动的大脑区域）发送微弱的磁脉冲。)”可知，此处提到设备发送弱磁脉冲干扰主运动皮层，由此可推断，在此次测试中使用了某种设备，所以空格中应涉及到该设备，E选项“At the same time, they had a device attached to their heads(同时，他们头上佩戴了一个装置)”承接了上文，且其中的a device对应空格下一句中的the device。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据上文的“The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures.(研究人员得出结论，运动皮层有助于翻译通过手势学习的词汇。)”可知，运动皮层有助于翻译通过手势学习到的词汇，结合此空处于段尾，应是对上文进一步解释，D选项“This applied to concrete words as well as abstract ones(这可能适用于具体的词，也适用于抽象的词)”中的this指代的内容为上文研究者得出的结论，补充说明实验结果的适用范围，符合语境。故选D项。 【20题详解】 根据上文的“The effect did not occur when the test subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures when learning vocabulary. In contrast, children — unlike adults — seem to benefit from pictures as much as gestures in the long run. (当测试对象在学习词汇时仅看到匹配的图片而非手势时，这种效果并未出现。相比之下，儿童与成人不同，长期来看，他们似乎能从图片中获得与手势相同的学习效果。)”可知，此处提到儿童与成人的不同学习机制，结合下文的“But it is not only the motor component itself that promotes learning.(但促进学习的不仅仅是运动组件本身。)”可知，此空应是承接上文，且与空后的内容为转折关系，G选项“The study indicates the adult brain uses motor areas to remember foreign-language words(研究表明，成人脑利用运动区域记忆外语单词)”介绍的内容与成年人记忆单词有关，与本段讲述的内容吻合，且与空后的内容为转折关系，符合语境。故选G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。 When Peter Kahn became an English teacher, he was terrified of teaching poetry. “Poetry was my least favorite subject as a student, and my least favorite subject to ____21____ as a teacher,” he says. “I was ____22____ at it.” So he asked a friend of his for help, who ____23____ the idea of a poetry competition in which poets ____24____ spoken-word poetry before a live audience. “The student with the lowest grade in my class ended up winning it,” says Kahn. “And I realized this was something ____25____.” That was the year 1999. ____26____ by the club’s potential to appeal to students, Kahn created an after-school spoken-word club at a high school.

It is ____37____ narrow and long strip of land, sandwiched between the Qilian Mountains and the Beishan Mountains, with the Taklamakan Desert to the west. The geographical environment of the Hexi Corridor is very unique. Due to its inland location, the climate is dry and rainfall is scarce, leading to a scarcity of surface water resources in the Hexi Corridor, with most areas being desert and arid land. Some oasis areas, however, are still suitable for agriculture and human habitation due to the ____38____ (exist) of groundwater resources. ___39___ (date) back to ancient times, this region is a joint for multiple ethnic groups and cultures.

Dating 40. where 41. As 42. highly 43. were exported 44. but 45. which 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是河西走廊的地理位置、历史背景、文化交汇及其在丝绸之路中的重要作用。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：河西走廊位于中国西北部，从北部的内蒙古自治区延伸到南部的青海省。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，locate与The Hexi Corridor之间为被动关系，所以此处使用形容词化的过去分词形式作定语。故填located。 【37题详解】 考查冠词。句意：它是一条狭长的土地，夹在祁连山和北山之间。strip 意为“条，带”为可数名单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一条狭长的土地”表示泛指意义，且narrow的首个音素为辅音，需用不定冠词a。故填a。 【38题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，由于地下水的存在，一些绿洲地区仍然适合农业和人类居住。此处为名词宾语，exist的名词为existence意为“存在”为不可数名词。故填existence。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：追溯到古代，这一地区是多个民族和文化的交汇点。此处为非谓语动词作状语，“date back to”为固定短语，意为“追溯到”与逻辑主语this region之间为主动关系，所以此处需用现在分词形式作状语。位于句首，故填Dating。 【40题详解】 考查表语从句。句意：作为连接不同地区的门户，河西走廊是不同文化和背景的文明汇聚的地方。此处为连接词引导表语从句，从句中不缺主语和宾语，缺少地点状语。故填where。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：作为丝绸之路的重要组成部分，河西走廊在东西方文化交流和贸易中起着至关重要的作用。此处介词与空后的名词短语构成介宾短语作状语，结合句意，此处表示“作为”应为as，位于句首，首字母大写。故填As。 【42题详解】 考查副词。句意：中原的商品以及汉族高度发展的造纸、印刷和火药文化通过河西走廊出口到西部地区。此处为副词作状语修饰形容词developed， high的副词形式为highly意为“高度地”符合句意。故填highly。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：中原的商品以及汉族高度发展的造纸、印刷和火药文化通过河西走廊出口到西部地区。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语in ancient times可知，此处使用一般过去时，且主语goods与export之间为被动关系，所以此处使用一般过去时的被动语态，且主语为名词复数。故填were exported。 【44题详解】 考查连词。句意：河西走廊不仅是贸易的枢纽，也是信仰的融合之地。此处为“not only...but also...”结构，意为“不仅……而且……”符合句意，所以此处使用连词but。故填but。 【45题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：河西走廊的兴衰就像这个古老国家的缩影，在这里，传说与科技、过去与未来以奇妙的方式交织在一起。此处为“介词+which/whom”引导的非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少介词的宾语，先行词this old country指事物，所以此处使用关系代词which。故填which。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是英语课代表，上周你以“记忆词汇的主要方法”为主题，对全班进行了调查。请你在英语课堂上进行一次口头汇报，内容包括： 1．调查结果； 2．你的建议。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Good morning, everyone! May I have your attention please? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Good morning, everyone! May I have your attention please? A survey with regard to ways of memorizing vocabulary was conducted last week with the intention of presenting students with the most preferred and instructive methods of grasping new words. Interesting results were revealed. In the first place, students’ approaches to learning words varied from individual to individual. As evidently illustrated from the findings, as high as 65% of classmates surveyed showed a stronger preference for word lists, relying on frequent repetition. By contrast, around 30% of the respondents found it a more desirable choice to turn to apps, which made learning intriguing and enjoyable. Most frustratingly, learning words through reading turned out to be a less popular alternative, only accounting for 4%. From my perspective, not only should we review regularly, but we should also use words in sentences. It is context that helps us remember deeply. Try reading English books or watching movies, where you can encounter natural expressions. Remember, practicing is the key to success. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生在英语课堂上对上周以“记忆词汇的主要方法”为主题的调查结果进行一次口头汇报。 【详解】1.词汇积累 目的：intention →purpose 依靠：rely on →depend on 在某人看来：from one’s perspective →in one’s opinion 遇到：encounter →come across 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：A survey with regard to ways of memorizing vocabulary was conducted last week with the intention of presenting students with the most preferred and instructive methods of grasping new words. 拓展句：A survey with regard to ways of memorizing vocabulary was conducted last week, whose aim is to present students with the most preferred and instructive methods of grasping new words. 【点睛】【高分句型1】As evidently illustrated from the findings, as high as 65% of classmates surveyed showed a stronger preference for word lists, relying on frequent repetition.（运用了as引导的非限制性定语从句以及现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型2】By contrast, around 30% of the respondents found it a more desirable choice to turn to apps, which made learning intriguing and enjoyable.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句） 第二节（满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 It was the midterm of senior one. Tim, a determined but easily-frustrated student, was facing a big challenge in math. His previous test scores were far from satisfactory, which made him quite worried about the coming mid-term exam. He spent hours every day doing math exercises, but the more he practiced, the more confused he became. One day, after another disappointing practice test, Tim almost gave up. He sat alone in the empty classroom, staring blankly at the test paper full of red crosses. Just then, his math teacher, Mr. Smith, came in. Noticing Tim’s distress, Mr. Smith sat beside him and said softly, “Tim, I know you’ve been working hard. Everyone has setbacks in learning. The key is not to be defeated by them.” With that, Mr. Smith patiently went through the test paper with Tim, explaining the mistakes one by one and giving him some useful study tips. Encouraged by Mr. Smith, Tim decided to change his learning method. He started to make a detailed study plan, dividing the math knowledge into small parts and solving problems step by step. He also joined a study group in the class. In the study group, he could discuss difficult questions with his classmates. As the mid-term exam was approaching, Tim was both nervous and looking forward to it. On the day before the exam, while he was doing the last-minute review, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. The headache got worse and worse, making it impossible for him to concentrate. 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。 Tim was too anxious about the exam to fall asleep, even though he knew he needed a good rest. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, Tim went to the exam room with Mr. Smith’s encouragement. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Tim was too anxious about the exam to fall asleep, even though he knew he needed a good rest. His mind blank and heart messy, he was at such a complete loss that he had no clue about what action to take. He buried his face in the quilt, tears blurring his eyes for a long time and finally overflowing almost uncontrollably as waves of frustration swept over him. The harder he strove to compose himself, the more restless and distracted he felt. Just at this critical moment, the louder ring of the phone broke the silence when anxiety had almost overwhelmed him. It turned out to be his math teacher. Mr. Smith encouraged him, “Tim, don’t be stressed. You have started diligently and made remarkable progress these days.” His timely encouragement was as comforting as a ray of sunshine in the dark clouds of his anxiety. Tim took a deep breath, gradually calmed down and finally managed to get some sleep. The next day, Tim went to the exam room with Mr. Smith’s encouragement. Pregnant with a mix of worry and determination, Tim unfolded the test paper. The instant his eyes landed on the paper, he found the problems manageable and accessible to tackle. For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language but more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. With Mr. Smith’s encouragement echoing in his mind and a newfound sense of confidence cultivated, he solved all the problems smoothly. Upon the release of the results, he got a much more satisfactory grade. A look of relief tinged with excitement appeared on his face. It dawned on him that with the courage to continue in the face of adversity, even the hardest challenges could be victories. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了高一学生Tim在数学学习上遇到困难，之前考试成绩不理想，在数学老师Mr. Smith 的鼓励和帮助下，他改变学习方法并加入学习小组。然而，在期中考试前一天，Tim突然头痛，影响了复习，他焦虑得难以入睡。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“尽管Tim知道他需要好好休息，但他对考试太焦虑了，睡不着觉。”可知，第一段可描写Tim 因焦虑难以入睡的状态描写以及可能出现外界因素帮助他缓解焦虑。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，Tim在史密斯先生的鼓励下去了考场”可知，第二段可描写Tim带着鼓励进入考场的状态及考试过程、考试结果及 Tim 的感悟。 2. 续写线索：焦虑难眠——老师来电鼓励——缓解焦虑入睡——带着鼓励进考场——顺利考试——取得好成绩——获得感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓励：encourage/motivate ②努力：strive/endeavor ③平静下来：calm down/compose oneself 情绪类： ① 宽慰：relief/comfort ② 沮丧：frustration/depression 【点睛】【高分句型1】With Mr. Smith’s encouragement echoing in his mind and a newfound sense of confidence cultivated, he solved all the problems smoothly.（运用了with复合结构） 【高分句型2】It dawned on him that with the courage to continue in the face of adversity, even the hardest challenges could be victories.（运用了that引导的主语从句，it作形式主语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 南阳市十校联盟体2025年春季期中模拟联考 高一年级英语试题 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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。 3．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What will the man help the woman do?

B When planning her outfit for an upcoming awards ceremony, Lily Murphy was concerned about two things—how much she spent on clothes and the impact on the environment. The solution was to rent a dress from someone. Using an app called HURR, Murphy rented a dress to attend her event. As a younger generation of consumers takes a more sustainable approach to what it wears and also demands to have fresh looks for its social media posts, networks that link buyers and sellers have emerged. By Rotation, a London-based company, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, who was concerned about the high levels of textile waste she saw. Users can borrow or lend designer dresses and bags, with the option of the item either posted or collected. HURR, which Murphy used, operates in a similar way. Pieces have to be less than two years old and in “excellent condition”. The rental fee is based on the price of the piece, and the fees are 15 percent for both sides. There is also a service fee of £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge of £10, shipping of £10 and a damage protection fee of £5, which is optional. If something is damaged, the owner can bill the borrower through By Rotation. “If they refuse to pay, the borrower’s details can be handed over to the lender for them to pursue the matter in the small claims court, although this has not happened yet,” Kabra says. HURR founder Victoria Prew says borrowers are asked to pay the market value if an item is damaged beyond repair. What you won’t find on the new generation of lending apps are high-street brands where shoppers can buy pieces for the same amount they would pay to rent a high-end piece. 4. What do we know about By Rotation? A. Its items are less than two years old. B. Borrowers can’t find high-street brands there. C. The owner of clothes often bills the borrower. D. Its items can only be collected by the borrower. 5. If you rent a dress priced at £100 on HURR and have it posted to you, how much would you pay at least? A. £40.15. B. £45.15. C. £50.15. D. £60.15. 6. People choose to rent clothes for the following reasons EXCEPT ______. A. spending less on clothes B. reducing their environmental impact C. having access to high-street brands D. having more fresh looks for social media post 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How to rent clothes online B. The effects of renting clothes C. Clothes-rental apps are taking off D. The best clothes-rental companies: HURR and By Rotation C There’s so much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and protecting forests won’t solve the problem. When plants and trees die, the carbon they’ve stored gets released again. Moreover, the CO2 in the atmosphere is much more dilute than in, for example, waste gas from a power station or a steel plant. Capturing CO2 from the air is the most expensive application of carbon capture. Direct Air Capture (DAC) is one type of technological carbon removal, which obtains CO2 directly from the atmosphere, at any location, unlike carbon capture which is generally carried out at the point of emissions. The CO2 can be permanently stored in deep geological formations or used for a variety of applications. Graphyte is a US company working on DAC. The company claims its carbon capture method is cheap, mainly because it lets plants do the work. The company collects unwanted wood products from farmers and furniture companies. It dries this “biomass” completely so that it can’t break down. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants into small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep underground. Graphyte says its process doesn’t use much energy and can work anywhere. The plant and tree material the process uses would release carbon if it wasn’t treated. And the cost is less than $100 to capture a ton of CO2. The company is building a factory, but it’s not running yet. Not everyone is excited about carbon removal. Some people worry that it will take too long for DAC technology to become powerful enough to make a difference. Others worry that focusing on removing carbon could take attention away from more important climate actions, like switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. But experts say the decision isn’t to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air. 8. What does the author mainly intend to tell us in the first paragraph? A. Trees can purify the air in the sky. B. Plants release more carbon dioxide. C. Removing carbon from the air is challenging. D. CO2 emission reduction is urgently needed. 9. What does the underlined word “dilute” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Beneficial. B. Thin. C. Harmful. D. Concentrated. 10. What can we know about Graphyte’s DAC project? A. Its cost is relatively low. B. It is in good operation now. C. Its working condition is demanding. D. It turns carbon into building materials. 11. What is the experts’ opinion about DAC technology? A. It will make a difference soon. B. It can replace renewable energy in time. C. It will result in more environmental concerns. D. It can work together with other climate measures. D Why are some people more motivated to handle difficult things? And is there a way to make doing difficult things easy? To answer this question, we need to look at this: dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is often considered a pleasure molecule. But that’s not quite what it does. Dopamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the motivation to get up and do stuff. In fact, your brain develops priorities in large part based on how much dopamine it’s expecting to get. If an activity releases too little dopamine, you won’t have much motivation to do it. But if an activity releases a lot of dopamine, you’ll be motivated to repeat it, over and over. So which behavior releases dopamine? Any activity where you anticipate there’s a potential reward releases it. And in today’s digital society, we are flooding our brains with unnaturally high amounts of dopamine on a daily basis, even if we don’t know it. Some examples of high dopamine behavior include: scrolling through social media websites, playing video games, etc. And you might think, “Oh so what? It’s not like it’s harming me in any way.” But you’d be wrong. Our bodies have a biological system called homeostasis (体内动态平衡). Whenever an imbalance occurs, our body adapts to it. Essentially, your brain gets used to having high levels of dopamine and those levels become your new normal. Thus you develop a dopamine tolerance. This can be a huge problem because the things that don’t give you as much dopamine don’t interest you any longer. That’s why people tend to prefer playing video games or browsing the Internet, compared to studying or working on their business. But it is possible to make doing difficult things feel easier. Separate yourself from the unnaturally high amounts of dopamine, or at least expose yourself to it far less frequently. Only then will normal, everyday, low dopamine activities become exciting again and you’ll be able to do them for longer. That’s why you might want to limit your phone and computer usage, along with other high dopamine-releasing behavior. We are all dopamine addicts to a certain extent. And that’s a good thing because dopamine motivates us to achieve our goals and improve ourselves. But it’s up to you to decide where you’re going to get your dopamine. Are you going to get it from things that don’t benefit you? Or are you going to get it from working on your long-term goals? The choice is yours. 12. When is dopamine released? A. When we have the motivation to do stuff. B. When potential rewards can be obtained. C. When we take pleasure in the behavior. D. When difficult things come into being. 13. What can we learn from the text? A. Dopamine does great harm to our body. B. It’s hard for our body to keep the balance. C. Dopamine tolerance keeps us away from games. D. Video games produce more dopamine than study. 14. What is the purpose of paragraph 5? A. To offer solutions to dopamine tolerance. B. To introduce the effects of dopamine. C. To explain why dopamine is harmful. D. To stress the importance of dopamine. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward dopamine? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 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。 Linking a word to brain areas responsible for movement strengthens the memory of its meaning. ____16____. They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) to deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners. “Our results provide neuroscientific evidence for why learning techniques that involve the body’s motor system should be used more often,” neuroscientist Brian Mathias said in a news release. As Mathias and his colleagues describe in the Journal of Neuroscience, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a total of 90 invented artificial words over four days. While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were at the same time shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word. ____17____. Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German in a multiple-choice test. ____18____. The device sent weak magnetic pulses to their primary motor cortex (皮层) — the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements. When these interfering signals were active, the subjects found it harder to recall the words accompanied by gestures. When the device sent no interfering signals, they found it easier to remember the words. The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures. ____19____. The effect did not occur when the test subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures when learning vocabulary. In contrast, children — unlike adults — seem to benefit from pictures as much as gestures in the long run. ____20____. But it is not only the motor component itself that promotes learning. A. They will receive interfering signals constantly B. This is the conclusion a research team reached C. It can be helpful for us to study adults’ memory D. This applied to concrete words as well as abstract ones E. At the same time, they had a device attached to their heads F. When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves G. The study indicates the adult brain uses motor areas to remember foreign-language words 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。 When Peter Kahn became an English teacher, he was terrified of teaching poetry. “Poetry was my least favorite subject as a student, and my least favorite subject to ____21____ as a teacher,” he says. “I was ____22____ at it.” So he asked a friend of his for help, who ____23____ the idea of a poetry competition in which poets ____24____ spoken-word poetry before a live audience. “The student with the lowest grade in my class ended up winning it,” says Kahn. “And I realized this was something ____25____.” That was the year 1999. ____26____ by the club’s potential to appeal to students, Kahn created an after-school spoken-word club at a high school.

Tim, a determined but easily-frustrated student, was facing a big challenge in math. His previous test scores were far from satisfactory, which made him quite worried about the coming mid-term exam. He spent hours every day doing math exercises, but the more he practiced, the more confused he became. One day, after another disappointing practice test, Tim almost gave up. He sat alone in the empty classroom, staring blankly at the test paper full of red crosses. Just then, his math teacher, Mr. Smith, came in. Noticing Tim’s distress, Mr. Smith sat beside him and said softly, “Tim, I know you’ve been working hard. Everyone has setbacks in learning. The key is not to be defeated by them.” With that, Mr. Smith patiently went through the test paper with Tim, explaining the mistakes one by one and giving him some useful study tips. Encouraged by Mr. Smith, Tim decided to change his learning method. He started to make a detailed study plan, dividing the math knowledge into small parts and solving problems step by step. He also joined a study group in the class. In the study group, he could discuss difficult questions with his classmates. As the mid-term exam was approaching, Tim was both nervous and looking forward to it. On the day before the exam, while he was doing the last-minute review, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. The headache got worse and worse, making it impossible for him to concentrate. 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。 Tim was too anxious about the exam to fall asleep, even though he knew he needed a good rest. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, Tim went to the exam room with Mr. Smith’s encouragement. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
