In the competition, he lost one game out of 24. Scrabble is a board game in which players form words from letters to gain points. Nothing like the New Zealander’s win had ever happened in Spanish Scrabble, said Alejandro Terenzani, an organizer of the competition. “It was impossible to react negatively — you can only be amazed,” Terenzani said. “We certainly expected that he would perform well, but it is perhaps true that he was beyond our expectations.” Many people are wondering how Richards could win without speaking Spanish. Liz Fagerlund is a New Zealand Scrabble official and a friend of Richards. She recently said that Richards had started memorizing the Spanish language Scrabble word list one year before. She said, “He can’t understand why other people can’t just do the same thing. He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture, he can just remember that very easily.” However, the recent Scrabble competition is not the first that Richards has won in a language that he does not speak. Richards is a professional Scrabble player. He holds five English-language world championships in the board game. In 2015, he became the French language Scrabble world champion although he does not speak French. He studied the French language word list for nine weeks. He won the French championship again in 2018. Richards is known in the world of international Scrabble as the greatest player of all time. He has been playing in competitions for about 30 years. But other players have said his Spanish language victory was notable even by his standards. Richards now lives in Malaysia. He never speaks to reporters. “I get lots of requests from journalists wanting to interview him, but he’s not interested,” Fagerlund said. 4. What makes Richards’ victory in the Spanish Scrabble competition different? A. He won 24 games easily. B. He achieved victory without speaking Spanish. C. He became professional in Spanish within one year. D. He befriended an organizer of the competition. 5 What do Fagerlund’s words about Richards show? A. Richards has a unique and powerful memory. B. Other players should learn from Richards. C. Richards has a special way of writing Spanish. D. Memorizing word lists is the key to winning Scrabble. 6. What does paragraph 4 focus on? A. The competition Richards faced in similar matches. B. Richards’ achievements in Scrabble competitions. C. The efforts Richards made to win the Spanish Scrabble. D. Richards’ journey to becoming a professional Scrabble player. 7. Which words can best describe Richards? A. Creative and cool-headed. B. Popular and ambitious. C. Responsible and easy-going. D. Talented and mysterious. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要说明了一名新西兰男子奈杰尔·理查兹赢得了一场国际西班牙语拼字游戏比赛，但是他不会说西班牙语。文章介绍了理查兹在拼字游戏中取得的成就以及他的天赋。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A New Zealand man, Nigel Richards, recently won an international Spanish Scrabble competition although he does not speak Spanish.(一名新西兰男子奈杰尔·理查兹最近赢得了一场国际西班牙语拼字游戏比赛，尽管他不会说西班牙语)”可知，特别之处在于他不会说西班牙语就取得了胜利。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture, he can just remember that very easily.(他可以把一整块单词放在一起看，一旦它们以图片的形式进入他的大脑，他就能很容易地记住)”可知，理查兹有一种独特而强大的记忆力。故选A。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“However, the recent Scrabble competition is not the first that Richards has won in a language that he does not speak. Richards is a professional Scrabble player. He holds five English-language world championships in the board game. In 2015, he became the French language Scrabble world champion although he does not speak French. He studied the French language word list for nine weeks. He won the French championship again in 2018.(然而，最近的拼字游戏比赛并不是理查兹第一次在他不会说的语言中获胜。理查兹是一名职业拼字游戏玩家。他曾五次获得世界英语棋类比赛冠军。2015年，他成为法语拼字游戏世界冠军，尽管他不会说法语。他学习了九个星期的法语单词表。他在2018年再次获得法国冠军)”可知，第4段的重点是理查兹在拼字游戏比赛中的成就。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture, he can just remember that very easily.(他可以把一整块单词放在一起看，一旦它们以图片的形式进入他的大脑，他就能很容易地记住)”以及最后一段“Richards now lives in Malaysia. He never speaks to reporters. “I get lots of requests from journalists wanting to interview him, but he’s not interested,” Fagerlund said.(理查兹现居马来西亚。他从不接受记者的采访。费格伦德说：“我收到了很多记者想采访他的请求，但他不感兴趣。”)”可知，理查兹有天赋且神秘。故选D。 C Norway is very close to meeting its goal of selling only fully electric new vehicles starting this year. The Norwegian Road Federation (OFV), an automotive industry group, guesses that nearly 96 percent of new cars registered (登记)in Norway in January were all-electric. No other country has such a high rate of electric vehicle (EV) ownership. To reach 100 percent of the goal means continuing to offer the incentives (奖励) that make it beneficial to choose an electric car over other models. It’s worth noting that Norway has not prohibited the sale of cars with engines that burn fuel. Instead, it offers a number of tax breaks to EV producers and owners. On the other hand, the country heavily taxes gas-powered vehicles. For example, Norwegian EV owners do not have to pay road tolls (养路费) and receive free parking in public car parks. EVs are also permitted to use parts of roads normally saved for public transportation vehicles. Eirik Olsen is a 50-year-old father of three who owns two EVs. He said that he converted to electric cars because of his concern for the environment and his desire for the benefits of driving them. Many homes have a device to charge or supply electricity to their EV’s battery. Norway also has a large national network of superfast charging stations. Having a nationwide charging network is important for Frode Hvattum, who, like many Norwegians, often travels by car to his second home in the mountains several hours outside Oslo. He said he finds it easy to plan and make trips with numerous charging stations accessible. Even if EV sales fail to meet the 100 percent mark this year, experts say Norway can still be seen as having met its goal. OFV director Oyvind Solberg Thorsen said in a statement, “We’ve never seen this before... If the rest of the year continues like this, we will very soon be close to the 2025 goal. ” 8. What has Norway done to meet its goal? A. It has improved its public transportation. B. It has made policies in EV owners’ favor. C. It has limited the trade of gas-powered vehicles. D. It has set specific parking lots for EVs. 9. What does the underlined part “converted to” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fought for. B. Turned to. C. Referred to. D. Searched for. 10. Why does the author mention Hvattum’s example? A. To show the challenge of promoting EVs in Norway. B. To share that Norwegians all care about the environment. C. To prove that having a second home is common in Norway. D. To stress the importance of a nationwide charging network. 11. What is Thorsen’s attitude towards Norway’s achieving its 2025 goal? A. Hopeful. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了挪威在推广电动汽车方面的进展，包括其接近实现全电动车销售目标的情况、为鼓励电动车购买所提供的激励措施、电动车在挪威的普及程度以及相关的充电设施等信息。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“To reach 100 percent of the goal means continuing to offer the incentives(奖励)that make it beneficial to choose an electric car over other models. It’s worth noting that Norway has not prohibited the sale of cars with engines that burn fuel. Instead, it offers a number of tax breaks to EV producers and owners. On the other hand, the country heavily taxes gas-powered vehicles. For example, Norwegian EV owners do not have to pay road tolls(养路费)and receive free parking in public car parks. EVs are also permitted to use parts of roads normally saved for public transportation vehicles.(要实现100%的目标，就意味着要继续提供激励措施，让人们觉得选择电动汽车比选择其他车型更有利。值得注意的是，挪威并没有禁止销售使用燃油发动机的汽车。相反，它为电动汽车生产商和车主提供了多项税收减免政策。另一方面，该国对燃油汽车征收高额税费。例如，挪威的电动汽车车主无需支付养路费，并且可以在公共停车场免费停车。电动汽车还被允许使用通常专供公共交通工具行驶的部分道路。)”可知，挪威为了实现目标，没有禁止燃油车销售，而是采取了一系列有利于电动汽车车主的政策。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Eirik Olsen is a 50-year-old father of three who owns two EVs.(50岁的Eirik Olsen是三个孩子的父亲，他拥有两辆电动汽车。)”以及下文“because of his concern for the environment and his desire for the benefits of driving them(因为他关心环境，并且希望享受驾驶电动汽车带来的好处。)”可推测，Eirik Olsen有两辆电动汽车，后面又说因为他关心环境以及渴望享受驾驶电动汽车带来的好处，所以可以推断出他是从使用其他车“转变”为使用电动汽车。选项B“turn to”，意为“转向”符合。故选B。 10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Many homes have a device to charge or supply electricity to their EV’s battery. Norway also has a large national network of superfast charging stations. Having a nationwide charging network is important for Frode Hvattum, who, like many Norwegians, often travels by car to his second home in the mountains several hours outside Oslo. He said he finds it easy to plan and make trips with numerous charging stations accessible.(许多家庭都有为电动汽车电池充电或供电的设备。挪威还拥有一个庞大的全国性超高速充电站网络。对于Frode Hvattum来说，拥有覆盖全国的充电网络非常重要。和许多挪威人一样，他经常开车前往位于奥斯陆城外几小时车程的山间的另一处住所。他说，有众多的充电站可供使用，他觉得规划和进行这样的旅行很容易。)”可知，作者先指出挪威有家庭充电设备和庞大的全国性超高速充电站网络，接着以Frode Hvattum为例，说明对于像他这样经常开车的人来说，全国性的充电网络很重要，因为有众多充电站可供使用，他觉得规划和进行这样的旅行很容易。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“OFV director Oyvind Solberg Thorsen said in a statement, “We’ve never seen this before... If the rest of the year continues like this, we will very soon be close to the 2025 goal. ”(挪威道路联合会主任Oyvind Solberg Thorsen在一份声明中说：“我们以前从未见过这种情况…… 如果今年剩余时间继续保持这样的态势，我们很快就会接近实现2025年的目标。”)”可推测，他认为目前的情况很好，并且如果这种良好的态势持续下去，挪威很有希望实现2025年的目标，所以他的态度是充满希望的。故选A。 D As the Earth’s climate continues to warm, hurricanes are growing stronger. Florida’s wildlife, which includes animals such as manatees, alligators, and dolphins, is impacted by damage from heavy flooding and especially strong winds. According to Maureen McCann, a weather expert, rising temperatures lead to more severe storms. This results in heavy rainfall and unusual rises in the level of the sea near the coast. These changes cause challenges not only for humans, but also for the state’s wildlife. That’s where Clearwater Marine Aquarium (水族馆) comes in. It works to rescue ocean animals after these types of events. Hurricanes can send sea turtles and manatees to other places, often leaving them stranded (搁浅) in unfamiliar places like rivers or lakes. Kelly Martin, Vice President of Zoological Care, explained that teams from the Aquarium help send these animals back to their natural habitats (栖息地). “Ocean animals are born with the ability to sense coming storms,” Martin said, adding that they might react to changes in air pressure or ocean currents. While wild animals use this ability to survive, organizations like the Aquarium ensure that animals in their care remain safe and calm during hurricanes. Hurricanes also affect habitats in other ways. Warmer oceans and rising sea levels increase the power of storms, leading to more severe coastal flooding. These changes threaten ecosystems and the animals that depend on them. Martin warned, “Wild animals have amazing survival skills, so it’s best not to get involved unless they’ re in clear danger. Thus, it would be better if people observe stranded animals from a safe distance for some time after a storm, and contact local wildlife rescue organizations only when necessary.” Kids can also help by learning about careers in meteorology and climate science. “Preparedness is key,” MeCann said. “And for those interested in science, there are so many opportunities to make a difference.” Supporting wildlife rescue organizations like Clearwater Marine Aquarium can also help protect animals affected by hurricanes. “Whether you visit, donate, or share our story, your support makes a difference,” Martin said. 12. What does Maureen McCann say about the warming climate? A It drives certain animals to go extinct. B. It enables ocean animals to be more adaptive. C. It contributes to the formation of more serious storms. D. It makes it hard for some regions to get enough rainfall. 13. How do hurricanes influence the wild animals in Florida? A. By reducing their food supplies. B. By slowing down their reaction speed. C. By displacing them from their natural habitats. D. By causing them to lose their sense of direction. 14. What’s Martin’s suggestion? A. Trying to rescue them immediately. B. Sending them to rescue organizations directly. C. Leaving them alone to avoid potential risks. D. Watching their condition before taking any action. 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Growing Power of Hurricanes B. Florida’s Wild Animals and Their Habitats C. The Role of Aquariums in Protecting Wild Animals D. Hurricanes’ Impact on Florida’ s Wildlife and Solutions 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了随着地球气候变暖，飓风强度增加对佛罗里达州野生动物造成的影响，并介绍了Clearwater Marine Aquarium如何在飓风后救援海洋动物。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“According to Maureen McCann, a weather expert, rising temperatures lead to more severe storms. This results in heavy rainfall and unusual rises in the level of the sea near the coast.(气象专家Maureen McCann表示，气温上升会引发更为猛烈的风暴。这会导致暴雨倾盆，沿海地区的海平面也会出现异常上升。)”可知，气象专家Maureen McCann指出，气温上升会导致更为猛烈的风暴，还会引发暴雨以及沿海地区海平面的异常上升。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Hurricanes can send sea turtles and manatees to other places, often leaving them stranded(搁浅)in unfamiliar places like rivers or lakes. Kelly Martin, Vice President of Zoological Care, explained that teams from the Aquarium help send these animals back to their natural habitats(栖息地).(飓风可能会把海龟和海牛冲到其他地方，常常使它们搁浅在河流或湖泊等陌生的环境中。水族馆动物护理副总裁Kelly Martin解释说，水族馆的团队会帮助将这些动物送回它们的自然栖息地。)”可知，飓风会把海龟和海牛等野生动物冲到其他地方，使它们搁浅在像河流或湖泊这样不熟悉的地方，需要水族馆的团队帮助它们回到自然栖息地。这表明飓风将这些野生动物从它们的自然栖息地驱离，改变了它们的生存环境。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“Martin warned, “Wild animals have amazing survival skills, so it’s best not to get involved unless they’ re in clear danger. Thus, it would be better if people observe stranded animals from a safe distance for some time after a storm, and contact local wildlife rescue organizations only when necessary.”(Martin提醒道：“野生动物拥有惊人的生存技能，所以除非它们明显处于危险之中，否则最好不要贸然干预。因此，在风暴过后，人们最好从安全距离观察搁浅的动物一段时间，只有在必要时才联系当地的野生动物救援组织。”)”可知，Martin认为野生动物有惊人的生存技能，除非它们明显处于危险之中，否则最好不要贸然干预。所以在风暴过后，人们最好从安全距离观察搁浅的动物一段时间，只有在必要时才联系当地的野生动物救援组织。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇指出随着地球气候变暖，飓风变得更强大，佛罗里达州的野生动物受到了严重洪灾和强风的影响。接着阐述了气候变暖导致更严重的风暴，给野生动物带来的具体挑战，如使它们离开自然栖息地等。然后介绍了克利尔沃特海洋水族馆在救援受影响动物方面的工作，还提到了面对受影响动物人们应采取的正确做法，以及支持野生动物救援组织的重要性。选项D“Hurricanes’ Impact on Florida’ s Wildlife and Solutions(飓风对佛罗里达州野生动物的影响及解决办法)”既提到了飓风对佛罗里达州野生动物的影响，又包含了水族馆的救援工作、人们的正确做法以及支持救援组织等解决措施，全面地概括了文章的主要内容，为最佳标题。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In many parts of the world, winter brings cold temperatures and, in some places, snowfall. For people who like planting things, gardening may seem far away. However, winter is actually a great time for gardeners to get a head start and prepare for the spring bloom. Here are two important tasks to pay special attention to. ※ Check and test seeds (种子) First, let’s talk about seeds. If you have packs of seeds, check their expiration date—the date by which they go “bad” or will not grow. ___16___ But don’ t be too quick to deal with the seeds that go beyond that date, as they may still be usable. The key is to test them. The test is easy. ___17___ And then put them into a plastic container. In about 10 days, take a look to see how many seeds have sprouted (发芽). This gives you an idea of how many seeds you can use to get the right number of plants. However, what should you do if less than 50 percent of the seeds grow? ___18___ ※ Examine and care for equipment The second important aspect of winter gardening preparation is taking care of your gardening equipment. ___19___ Bulbs (灯泡) in grow lights may need replacement over time. Take out your grow lights and test each bulb. If you notice any bulbs that are not functioning order new ones immediately. This way, you’ ll be fully equipped to start growing plants. “____20____” Gardening tools should be checked every year. Clean your gardening hand tools. Check water pipes, sprayers, and other water supply systems for damage. Replace or repair any parts as needed. By following these steps, you’ll be well on your way to a successful gardening season in the coming spring. A. No pains, no gains. B. Of course, throw them away. C. Place several seeds on some wet paper. D. To do a good job, one must first sharpen one’s tools. E. If you use grow lights made for plants, make sure they still work. F. Test your old seeds in the winter before the spring gardening season. G. The seeds are usually considered “fresh” within a year of being packed. 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. B 19. E 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在冬季为春季园艺活动做准备的两个重要任务，即检查和测试种子以及检查和保养园艺设备，从而向读者提供有关冬季园艺准备的具体建议和步骤。 【16题详解】 根据上文“If you have packs of seeds, check their expiration date—the date by which they go “bad” or will not grow(如果你有几包种子，检查一下它们的保质期，也就是它们“变质”或无法生长的日期。)”可知，上文在讨论种子的保质期。选项G“The seeds are usually considered “fresh” within a year of being packed.(种子在包装后的一年内通常被认为是“新鲜的”。)”进一步说明了种子新鲜度和时间的关系，与上下文衔接紧密。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文“The test is easy.(测试很简单。)”可知本段主要讲述测试的方法。选项C“Place several seeds on some wet paper.(将几颗种子放在一些湿纸上)”是测试的第一步，自然引出下文“And then put them into a plastic container.(然后把它们放入一个塑料容器中。)”都是测试的内容，符合逻辑顺序。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据上文“However, what should you do if less than 50 percent of the seeds grow?(然而，如果你发现发芽的种子不到50%，那该怎么办呢？)”可知，上文提出疑问，即如果发现发芽的种子不到50%该怎么办。选项B“Of course, throw them away. 当然，把它们扔掉)”给出了相应的解决办法。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据下文“Bulbs(灯泡)in grow lights may need replacement over time. Take out your grow lights and test each bulb.(随着时间的推移，生长灯中的灯泡可能需要更换。拿出你的生长灯并测试每一个灯泡。)”可知，这里在讲植物生长灯的问题。选项E“If you use grow lights made for plants, make sure they still work.(如果你使用专为植物设计的生长灯，确保它们仍然能正常工作。)”与下文内容相符，指出要确保生长灯的正常工作。故选E。 【20题详解】 空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文“Gardening tools should be checked every year. Clean your gardening hand tools. Check water pipes, sprayers, and other water supply systems for damage. Replace or repair any parts as needed. (园艺工具应该每年检查一次。清理你的园艺手工工具。检查水管、喷雾器和其他供水系统是否有损坏。根据需要更换或修理任何部件。)”可知，本段强调了园艺工具的重要性。选项D“To do a good job, one must first sharpen one’s tools.(工欲善其事，必先利其器)”符合段落主旨。故选D。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 After a happy weekend in the mountains, my two friends and I headed back.

Brooke and her husband, Charles, who was bravely battling a deadly disease, lost heat in their home as the temperatures dropped sharply. The freezing air was coming in through the cracks (缝隙), making the already difficult situation even more unbearable. Charles, weak from his treatment, was shaking under the thin blankets. In a desperate attempt to keep him warm, Brooke quickly turned to Walmart’s Spark Express service, hoping to get heaters delivered to their doorstep as soon as possible. However, Eduardo Garcia, the transport driver appointed to send her order, ran into an unexpected challenge. The snow-covered roads were treacherous (暗藏危险的), and his truck skidded off the road and landed in a deep ditch (沟). He tried his best to get the vehicle out, but with no luck. “The information online kept saying he was two minutes away, and then 30 minutes later, it still said he was two minutes away. I finally called and said, ‘Are you lost?’ And he’s like, ‘I’m actually in a ditch. I’m not going to be able to make it,’” Brooke said, her voice filled with worry and disappointment. During their conversation, Brooke, almost in tears, mentioned that the heaters were for her husband who needed warmth during his treatment for his serious illness. Garcia, a kind-hearted man with a deep sense of responsibility, then said he would carry the heaters to Brooke on foot. “I told him, ‘I wouldn’t have asked you to do this,’” Brooke recalled. “He said, ‘No, I can do this. Let me do it. I’ll finish the task. It’ll just take six minutes for each of us.’” 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。 Then Garcia struggled through the knee-deep snow with the heaters in his arms. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, Garcia refused to take the tip Brooke offered. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then Garcia struggled through the knee-deep snow with the heaters in his arms. The wind was howling and the snow was swirling around him, but he was determined. With each step, he sank deeper into the snow, his legs aching. After what seemed like an eternity, he finally reached Brooke’s house. When Brooke opened the door, she was shocked and deeply touched to see Garcia, his face red from the cold and exhaustion. “Thank you so much. You have no idea how much this means to us,” Brooke said, her eyes filled with gratitude. However, Garcia refused to take the tip Brooke offered. “I just did what anyone should do in this situation,” he said with a warm smile. “I’m glad I could help your husband get through this difficult time.” His selflessness made a deep impression on Brooke. From then on, Brooke and Garcia became good friends. They often kept in touch, sharing their life stories. Garcia’s act of kindness not only brought warmth to Brooke’s home in the cold winter but also became a precious memory that would be cherished forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Brooke Kochel在暴风雪中为生病的丈夫订购加热器，以及运输司机Eduardo Garcia在面临困难时选择步行送货的故事，展现了人与人之间的善良、互助和友情。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后，Garcia抱着取暖器在齐膝深的雪地里艰难前行。”以及第二段首句内容“然而，Garcia拒绝了Brooke给的小费。”可知，第一段可描写Garcia费了九牛二虎之力才来到了Brooke的家，给她送来了加热器。 ②由第二段首句内容“然而，Garcia拒绝了Brooke给的小费。”可知，第二段可描写Garcia认为自己只是做了自己应该做的事情，而Brooke非常感激他，从此，他们成为了好朋友。 2.续写线索：Garcia抱着取暖器在齐膝深的雪地里艰难前行——他每走一步，就会在雪里陷得更深，双腿疼痛不已——最后，他终于来到了Brooke的家——看到Garcia，Brooke非常感动——但是，Garcia拒绝了Brooke给的小费，Garcia认为自己只是做了自己应该做的事情——他的无私让Brooke印象深刻——从此，他们成为了好朋友，而他的善举永远留在了Brooke的记忆中 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①到达：reach/arrive at ②充满了：be filled with/be full of ③珍视：cherish/ value 情绪类 ①震惊的：shocked/ astonished ②感动的：touched/ moved 【点睛】【高分句型1】After what seemed like an eternity, he finally reached Brooke’s house.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】When Brooke opened the door, she was shocked and deeply touched to see Garcia, his face red from the cold and exhaustion.（运用了when引导的状语从句和独立主格结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024—2025学年(下)南阳六校高一年级期中考试 英语 考生注意： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将考生号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡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2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。 例: How much is the shirt?

B A New Zealand man, Nigel Richards, recently won an international Spanish Scrabble competition although he does not speak Spanish. In the competition, he lost one game out of 24. Scrabble is a board game in which players form words from letters to gain points. Nothing like the New Zealander’s win had ever happened in Spanish Scrabble, said Alejandro Terenzani, an organizer of the competition. “It was impossible to react negatively — you can only be amazed,” Terenzani said. “We certainly expected that he would perform well, but it is perhaps true that he was beyond our expectations.” Many people are wondering how Richards could win without speaking Spanish. Liz Fagerlund is a New Zealand Scrabble official and a friend of Richards. She recently said that Richards had started memorizing the Spanish language Scrabble word list one year before. She said, “He can’t understand why other people can’t just do the same thing. He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture, he can just remember that very easily.” However, the recent Scrabble competition is not the first that Richards has won in a language that he does not speak. Richards is a professional Scrabble player. He holds five English-language world championships in the board game. In 2015, he became the French language Scrabble world champion although he does not speak French. He studied the French language word list for nine weeks. He won the French championship again in 2018. Richards is known in the world of international Scrabble as the greatest player of all time He has been playing in competitions for about 30 years. But other players have said his Spanish language victory was notable even by his standards. Richards now lives in Malaysia. He never speaks to reporters. “I get lots of requests from journalists wanting to interview him, but he’s not interested,” Fagerlund said. 4. What makes Richards’ victory in the Spanish Scrabble competition different? A. He won 24 games easily. B. He achieved victory without speaking Spanish. C. He became professional in Spanish within one year. D. He befriended an organizer of the competition. 5. What do Fagerlund’s words about Richards show? A. Richards has a unique and powerful memory. B.

Talented and mysterious. C Norway is very close to meeting its goal of selling only fully electric new vehicles starting this year. The Norwegian Road Federation (OFV), an automotive industry group, guesses that nearly 96 percent of new cars registered (登记)in Norway in January were all-electric. No other country has such a high rate of electric vehicle (EV) ownership. To reach 100 percent of the goal means continuing to offer the incentives (奖励) that make it beneficial to choose an electric car over other models. It’s worth noting that Norway has not prohibited the sale of cars with engines that burn fuel. Instead, it offers a number of tax breaks to EV producers and owners. On the other hand, the country heavily taxes gas-powered vehicles. For example, Norwegian EV owners do not have to pay road tolls (养路费) and receive free parking in public car parks. EVs are also permitted to use parts of roads normally saved for public transportation vehicles. Eirik Olsen is a 50-year-old father of three who owns two EVs. He said that he converted to electric cars because of his concern for the environment and his desire for the benefits of driving them. Many homes have a device to charge or supply electricity to their EV’s battery. Norway also has a large national network of superfast charging stations. Having a nationwide charging network is important for Frode Hvattum, who, like many Norwegians, often travels by car to his second home in the mountains several hours outside Oslo. He said he finds it easy to plan and make trips with numerous charging stations accessible. Even if EV sales fail to meet the 100 percent mark this year, experts say Norway can still be seen as having met its goal. OFV director Oyvind Solberg Thorsen said in a statement, “We’ve never seen this before... If the rest of the year continues like this, we will very soon be close to the 2025 goal. ” 8. What has Norway done to meet its goal? A. It has improved its public transportation. B. It has made policies in EV owners’ favor. C. It has limited the trade of gas-powered vehicles. D. It has set specific parking lots for EVs. 9. What does the underlined part “converted to” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fought for. B. Turned to. C. Referred to. D. Searched for. 10. Why does the author mention Hvattum’s example? A. To show the challenge of promoting EVs in Norway. B. To share that Norwegians all care about the environment. C. To prove that having a second home is common in Norway. D. To stress the importance of a nationwide charging network. 11. What is Thorsen’s attitude towards Norway’s achieving its 2025 goal? A. Hopeful. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear. D As the Earth’s climate continues to warm, hurricanes are growing stronger. Florida’s wildlife, which includes animals such as manatees, alligators, and dolphins, is impacted by damage from heavy flooding and especially strong winds. According to Maureen McCann, a weather expert, rising temperatures lead to more severe storms. This results in heavy rainfall and unusual rises in the level of the sea near the coast. These changes cause challenges not only for humans, but also for the state’s wildlife. That’s where Clearwater Marine Aquarium (水族馆) comes in. It works to rescue ocean animals after these types of events. Hurricanes can send sea turtles and manatees to other places, often leaving them stranded (搁浅) in unfamiliar places like rivers or lakes. Kelly Martin, Vice President of Zoological Care, explained that teams from the Aquarium help send these animals back to their natural habitats (栖息地). “Ocean animals are born with the ability to sense coming storms,” Martin said, adding that they might react to changes in air pressure or ocean currents. While wild animals use this ability to survive, organizations like the Aquarium ensure that animals in their care remain safe and calm during hurricanes. Hurricanes also affect habitats in other ways. Warmer oceans and rising sea levels increase the power of storms, leading to more severe coastal flooding. These changes threaten ecosystems and the animals that depend on them. Martin warned, “Wild animals have amazing survival skills, so it’s best not to get involved unless they’ re in clear danger. Thus, it would be better if people observe stranded animals from a safe distance for some time after a storm, and contact local wildlife rescue organizations only when necessary.” Kids can also help by learning about careers in meteorology and climate science. “Preparedness is key,” MeCann said. “And for those interested in science, there are so many opportunities to make a difference.” Supporting wildlife rescue organizations like Clearwater Marine Aquarium can also help protect animals affected by hurricanes. “Whether you visit, donate, or share our story, your support makes a difference,” Martin said. 12. What does Maureen McCann say about the warming climate? A. It drives certain animals to go extinct. B. It enables ocean animals to be more adaptive. C. It contributes to the formation of more serious storms. D. It makes it hard for some regions to get enough rainfall. 13. How do hurricanes influence the wild animals in Florida? A. By reducing their food supplies. B. By slowing down their reaction speed. C. By displacing them from their natural habitats. D. By causing them to lose their sense of direction. 14. What’s Martin’s suggestion? A. Trying to rescue them immediately. B. Sending them to rescue organizations directly. C. Leaving them alone to avoid potential risks. D. Watching their condition before taking any action. 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Growing Power of Hurricanes B. Florida’s Wild Animals and Their Habitats C. The Role of Aquariums in Protecting Wild Animals D. Hurricanes’ Impact on Florida’ s Wildlife and Solutions 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In many parts of the world, winter brings cold temperatures and, in some places, snowfall.

Brooke and her husband, Charles, who was bravely battling a deadly disease, lost heat in their home as the temperatures dropped sharply. The freezing air was coming in through the cracks (缝隙), making the already difficult situation even more unbearable. Charles, weak from his treatment, was shaking under the thin blankets. In a desperate attempt to keep him warm, Brooke quickly turned to Walmart’s Spark Express service, hoping to get heaters delivered to their doorstep as soon as possible. However, Eduardo Garcia, the transport driver appointed to send her order, ran into an unexpected challenge. The snow-covered roads were treacherous (暗藏危险的), and his truck skidded off the road and landed in a deep ditch (沟). He tried his best to get the vehicle out, but with no luck. “The information online kept saying he was two minutes away, and then 30 minutes later, it still said he was two minutes away. I finally called and said, ‘Are you lost?’ And he’s like, ‘I’m actually in a ditch. I’m not going to be able to make it,’” Brooke said, her voice filled with worry and disappointment. During their conversation, Brooke, almost in tears, mentioned that the heaters were for her husband who needed warmth during his treatment for his serious illness. Garcia, a kind-hearted man with a deep sense of responsibility, then said he would carry the heaters to Brooke on foot. “I told him, ‘I wouldn’t have asked you to do this,’” Brooke recalled. “He said, ‘No, I can do this. Let me do it. I’ll finish the task. It’ll just take six minutes for each of us.’” 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Then Garcia struggled through the knee-deep snow with the heaters in his arms. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, Garcia refused to take the tip Brooke offered. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
