Each evening, my dad and I gathered around the large dining table to build the model. We faced thousands of tiny white pieces, each packaged with precision in numbered plastic bags, accompanied by a thick instruction book. The evenings passed quickly, and the building rose before our eyes. We could see our efforts producing good results, and as we turned to the boring task of ordering the colored bricks on the building’s floor, our conversation too took a turn. We were amazed by how complex the model was and its instruction book. We realized the book itself was a work of art, beautiful, but also surprisingly detailed and clear. It provided us with the comfort of certainty. We knew if we followed all the instructions, we would end up with a model that looked exactly like the picture on the box. If we made a mistake, all we had to do was to repeat our steps and start again. Life, however, does not fit together so neatly and rarely provides us with such clear instructions. We talked over our respective lives, decisions made, and actions and choices never taken. Dad reflected on a life well lived, and I, in my mid-thirties, on the uncertain path that lay ahead. Here, we were the expert architects doing the assembling (组装), but out in the world, we were the ones being assembled. We think we’re in control, but our choices are shaped by forces beyond our control. In the face of uncertainty, we have to proceed, trusting both in the process and the end result. Sometimes, on the days I return home, I go to the spare room to look at the completed Lego model, which brings forth a sense of happiness and comfort. It reminds me that life is built slowly, with mistakes, an element of uncertainty and no instruction book. It shows that consideration, warmth and faith will result in a life well lived. Life itself is not about what we materially create or leave behind, but rather how we lived it. 4. Which can best describe the author’s experience of building the Lego model? A. Simple and uninteresting. B. Imaginative and enjoyable. C. Complicated and rewarding. D. Challenging and discouraging. 5. What does the author learn from assembling the Lego model? A. Life requires to be planned carefully. B. Life doesn’t come with clear guidance. C. Mistakes in life can always be corrected. D. Life’s uncertainty makes it more exciting. 6. How does the author suggest we deal with uncertainty in life? A. By avoiding making any choice. B. By focusing on instant end results. C. By seeking instructions from others. D. By moving forward with confidence. 7. What does the completed Lego model mean to the author? A. The value of hard work in life. B. The achievement of life goals. C The journey of living one’s life. D. The joy of staying with families. C In this period of anxiety about the size of our waists and what we consume, simple dietary rules are appealing.“Eat like our ancestors”is a particularly catchy slogan (口号) to live by. But who are these ancestors we are supposed to follow? Are they our great-great-grandparents, cooking healthy things? Or are they hairy animals we imagine “cavemen“ to be? The popular ancient diet blames modern health problems on the birth of agriculture, claiming that we should stick to eating meat, nuts and berries. This kind of stone age trend is based on the false assumption that palaeolithic (旧石器时代的) peoples all ate the same food, regardless of their location. Nevertheless, England’s 9,000-year-old Cheddar Man would not have eaten the same foods as his contemporaries on the Kenyan plain. The amount of meat peoples ate, and how much was obtained by hunting, are also up for debate. Moreover, the stone age trend is focused on what’s perceived to be good for our bodies, without any concern for the rest of nature, including other humans whose livelihoods are threatened by western overconsumption. Were I to eat like my Punjabi farming great-grandparents, my diet would be based on the wheat and milk products that people in the Punjab have relied on for probably at least the last two thousand years. But delicious and “original” as it might be for me to follow its lead, the morals of industrially farmed milk products in the 21st century make the situation more confusing and complicated. Now, probably more than ever before, what we eat connects us to the fate of other beings, human and non-human, and to the fate of our planet. A dogmatic (武断的) approach to this would be a mistake. Better to preserve what’s worth keeping and remain clear-eyed about our cooking past, much of which is unknowable, immoral and impossible to follow in any case. 8. What does the text concern? A. An ancient study. B. An immoral case. C. A balanced diet. D. A popular belief. 9. Why does the author mention Cheddar Man in paragraph 3? A. To illustrate an opinion. B. To present a fact. C. To clarify a concept. D. To introduce a theory. 10 What does the author focus on in paragraph 4? A. The eating behavior of our great-grandparents. B. The connection between food choice and nature. C. The relationship among eating,hunting and farming. D. The impact of food overconsumption on the environment. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Punjabi diet:popular again B. Should we eat like our ancestors? C. Is the fate of the planet in our hands? D. Our cooking past:a complicated history D Animals hibernate (冬眠) to conserve energy during cold weather or when food becomes scarce, slowing their heart rate and dropping their body temperature to as low as 5℃. This is only survivable if their blood continues to flow efficiently and supply oxygen to the body. We already know that red blood cells change shape to fit different pressures and blood vessel sizes. To investigate if something like this happens in the cells of hibernating animals to keep blood flowing, Gerald Kerth at the University of Greifswald in Germany and his colleagues turned to bats. They analyzed hundreds of thousands of red blood cells from common noctule bats, which hibernate and Egyptian fruit bats, which don’t, along with cells from people. The researchers found that for all three species, red blood cells became less flexible and stickier as temperatures dropped from 37℃ to 23℃. But when they cooled the cells even further to 10℃, the bat cells continued this metamorphosis, whereas the human cells did not. Indeed, the bat cells — even those of non-hibernating bats, which probably maintained the evolutionary capacity — continued to become thick, stiff and functional even at very low temperatures. This might be slowing down the cells as they pass through the tiny vessels in the muscles and lungs, making them highly efficient at exchanging gases, like oxygen, throughout the body. “It is like how when you take your time at the supermarket instead of being rushed, you can really fill up your basket,” says Kerth. Exactly how this structural change happens is still unclear, but the team guesses that the mechanical properties of the bat red blood cell membranes (细胞膜) play a key role. The findings suggest that drugs could one day include human red blood cell membranes to imitate the way bat membranes react to the cold, says Kerth. In the more distant future, hibernation could also allow for efficient long-distance space travel, requiring minimal food and other resources while preserving mental health during the journey. “There are benefits of putting humans at low temperature during space flight,” says Kerth. 12. What did Gerald Kerth’s study focus on? A. Blood flow. B. Blood vessel sizes. C. Red blood cells. D. Different pressures. 13. What does the underlined word “metamorphosis” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Change. B. Growth. C. Damage. D. Movement. 14 Why does Kerth mention shopping at a supermarket? A. To prove the evolutionary capacity of bats. B. To show the role of red blood cell membranes. C. To indicate how the structural change happens. D. To illustrate the efficiency of exchanging gases. 15. How will hibernation help long-space travel? A. By offering astronauts resources. B. By speeding up astronauts’ travel. C. By reducing resource consumption. D. By maintaining astronauts’ overall health. 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。 Are you struggling with low self-esteem (自尊)? If so, you may have been told to repeat phrases such as “I’m a lovable person”. ___16___ However, when psychologists tested the effects of such positive self-talk, they found “toxic positivity” — the phenomenon that a forced optimistic interpretation of our experiences alongside the bottling up of negative emotions can do real damage. ___17___ Beginning in the industrial revolution, socioeconomic goals around productivity and efficiency contributed to a culture where emotions, especially paralyzing ones like sadness, were seen as handbrakes to economic output. If someone was struggling, they were advised to have more faith rather than encouraged to explore the root causes. Science also takes some blame. Historically, psychologists didn’t consider emotions as justified phenomena to study, so there was little understanding of their significant impact on mental health. It isn’t surprising that we want to believe things will turn out better if we have positive attitude. After all, there is a growing body of research indicating that an optimistic outlook on life does have benefits, such as promoting physical health, boosting energy, and reducing stress. It also isn’t surprising that we label certain emotions, like anger, guilt, fear, and bitterness, as bad because they do feel unpleasant. ___18___ Nevertheless, it is becoming apparent that positivity has its limits. In 2021, a meta-analysis with more than 217, 000 participants investigated the link between optimism, pessimism and mortality. It found that an optimistic outlook was indeed associated with the lower risk of death, however, both unrealistic optimism and pessimism were linked to a higher risk of death. ___19___ How can we escape toxic positivity? Susan Davis from Harvard Medical School emphasizes the importance of allowing ourselves to sit with uncomfortable emotions. ___20___ The key to managing emotions does not lie in judging oneself for feeling negative emotions, but simply experiencing them, knowing that they will pass. A. We need to accept them as a normal part of human experience. B. Our tendency to avoid the darker aspects of human experience isn’t new. C. When we experience them, we can become consumed, disturbed or inactive. D. Neglecting negative emotions is also found to be harmful to our mental health. E. They urge us to inject a bit of positive emotion into our day to gain the benefits. F. Positive chants like this are set to boost a person’s mood and feelings of self-worth. G. We are more likely to perceive normal emotions as mental problems needing treatment. 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) Shaine Kilyun was scrolling through videos on her phone one night in December 2020.

I heard him say, “Yes, Miss Beisner,” and “I understand what you’re saying, Miss Beisner. I appreciate you sharing this information. We’ll see what we can do about the situation. Thank you for calling. Goodbye.” Miss Beisner was my first-grade teacher, and I loved her. I thought she felt the same about me, but now I was beginning to wonder. The tone of Dad’s voice, the redness in his cheeks, and his repeated clenching. And unclenching of fists made it pretty clear. This was not a warm and fuzzy good news-from-the-teacher call. As I was deciding whether I should lock myself in my bedroom for the rest of my life or run away from home, Dad hung up the phone. “Jacquie, come here and sit down. We need to talk.” Uh-oh. When Dad said, “We need to talk,” it meant he needed to talk, and I needed to listen. I shuffled (拖着脚走) over to the well-worn brown chair in the corner of the living room, plopped down, and waited to hear the nature of my crime. Dad told me that Miss Beisner thought I was bright but not working up to my ability. She said I had strong verbal skills but weak study habits. Translation: I never closed my mouth, and I seldom opened a book. Apparently, my failure to memorize the addition facts, or even attempt to, was more than she was willing to put up with. Hence, the telephone call. Dad ended our one-way conversation with a verbal outline for his plan of attack. Bubbles, our Toy Manchester Terrier, was going to teach me math. Silently, I thought, No way is any dumb dog going to teach me how to add, not even our beloved Bubbles. Out loud, I said, “How?” Dad summoned Bubbles from her bed near the stove and commanded her to sit. “Bubbles,” Dad said, “how much is five plus three?” Bubbles let out eight loud, crisp barks. I was incredulous (满腹狐疑的). I couldn’t understand how a dog could add, and I was more than a little embarrassed by the fact that the family dog was smarter than me. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: After that, I threw myself into math with newfound determination. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: One day, I asked Dad whether Bubbles really knew how to add. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高三适应性调研测试(二) 满分：150分 考试时间：120分钟 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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Each evening, my dad and I gathered around the large dining table to build the model. We faced thousands of tiny white pieces, each packaged with precision in numbered plastic bags, accompanied by a thick instruction book. The evenings passed quickly, and the building rose before our eyes. We could see our efforts producing good results, and as we turned to the boring task of ordering the colored bricks on the building’s floor, our conversation too took a turn. We were amazed by how complex the model was and its instruction book. We realized the book itself was a work of art, beautiful, but also surprisingly detailed and clear. It provided us with the comfort of certainty. We knew if we followed all the instructions, we would end up with a model that looked exactly like the picture on the box. If we made a mistake, all we had to do was to repeat our steps and start again. Life, however, does not fit together so neatly and rarely provides us with such clear instructions. We talked over our respective lives, decisions made, and actions and choices never taken. Dad reflected on a life well lived, and I, in my mid-thirties, on the uncertain path that lay ahead. Here, we were the expert architects doing the assembling (组装), but out in the world, we were the ones being assembled. We think we’re in control, but our choices are shaped by forces beyond our control. In the face of uncertainty, we have to proceed, trusting both in the process and the end result. Sometimes, on the days I return home, I go to the spare room to look at the completed Lego model, which brings forth a sense of happiness and comfort. It reminds me that life is built slowly, with mistakes, an element of uncertainty and no instruction book. It shows that consideration, warmth and faith will result in a life well lived. Life itself is not about what we materially create or leave behind, but rather how we lived it. 4. Which can best describe the author’s experience of building the Lego model? A. Simple and uninteresting. B. Imaginative and enjoyable. C. Complicated and rewarding. D. Challenging and discouraging. 5. What does the author learn from assembling the Lego model? A. Life requires to be planned carefully. B. Life doesn’t come with clear guidance. C. Mistakes in life can always be corrected. D. Life’s uncertainty makes it more exciting. 6. How does the author suggest we deal with uncertainty in life? A. By avoiding making any choice. B. By focusing on instant end results. C. By seeking instructions from others. D. By moving forward with confidence. 7. What does the completed Lego model mean to the author? A. The value of hard work in life. B. The achievement of life goals. C. The journey of living one’s life. D. The joy of staying with families. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了和父亲一起搭建泰姬陵乐高模型的经历，并由此引发对生活的思考，乐高模型有明确的说明书，但生活没有，尽管充满不确定性，我们也要带着信心前行。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“We faced thousands of tiny white pieces, each packaged with precision in numbered plastic bags, accompanied by a thick instruction book. The evenings passed quickly, and the building rose before our eyes. We could see our efforts producing good results, and as we turned to the boring task of ordering the colored bricks on the building’s floor, our conversation too took a turn.(我们面对着成千上万的白色小零件，每一个都用精确编号的塑料袋包装着，附有一本厚厚的说明书。夜晚过得很快，那座建筑在我们眼前升起。我们可以看到我们的努力产生了良好的效果，当我们转向订购大楼地板上的彩色砖块的无聊任务时，我们的谈话也发生了变化)”可知，搭建乐高面对数千个小小的白色积木，可推理出这个过程是复杂的；同时因搭建的建筑物在我们眼前逐渐升起，我们能看到努力正在结出果实，即作者搭建乐高模型的经历复杂而有益。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Life, however, does not fit together so neatly and rarely provides us with such clear instructions. We talked over our respective lives, decisions made, and actions and choices never taken.(然而，生活并没有如此整齐地结合在一起，也很少给我们提供如此清晰的指示。我们谈论各自的生活，所做的决定，以及从未采取的行动和选择)”可知，作者从组装乐高模型中学到了人生没有明确的指引。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“In the face of uncertainty, we have to move on, trusting bot in the process and the end result(面对不确定性，我们必须继续前进，既相信过程也相信最终结果)”可知，作者建议我们充满信心地前进来处理生活中的不确定性。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Sometimes, on the days I return home, I go to the spare room to look at the completed Lego model, which brings forth a sense of happiness and comfort. It reminds me that life is built slowly, with mistakes, an element of uncertainty and no instruction book. It shows that consideration, warmth and faith will result in a life well lived. Life itself is not about what we materially create or leave behind, but rather how we lived it.(有时，在我回家的日子里，我去空余的房间看完成的乐高模型，这带来了一种幸福和舒适的感觉。它提醒我，生活是慢慢建立起来的，充满了错误，不确定因素，没有说明书。它表明，体贴，温暖和信念会导致一个美好的生活。生活本身不在于我们创造了什么或留下了什么，而在于我们如何生活)”可知作者认为看见完成的乐高模型，让作者想起生活是慢慢构建的，有错误，有不确定性因素，生活本身不在于我们物质上创造或留下的东西，而在于我们如何度过它，可推理出对作者来说完成的乐高模型象征着人生之旅，故选C。 C In this period of anxiety about the size of our waists and what we consume, simple dietary rules are appealing.“Eat like our ancestors”is a particularly catchy slogan (口号) to live by. But who are these ancestors we are supposed to follow? Are they our great-great-grandparents, cooking healthy things? Or are they hairy animals we imagine “cavemen“ to be? The popular ancient diet blames modern health problems on the birth of agriculture, claiming that we should stick to eating meat, nuts and berries. This kind of stone age trend is based on the false assumption that palaeolithic (旧石器时代的) peoples all ate the same food, regardless of their location. Nevertheless, England’s 9,000-year-old Cheddar Man would not have eaten the same foods as his contemporaries on the Kenyan plain. The amount of meat peoples ate, and how much was obtained by hunting, are also up for debate. Moreover, the stone age trend is focused on what’s perceived to be good for our bodies, without any concern for the rest of nature, including other humans whose livelihoods are threatened by western overconsumption. Were I to eat like my Punjabi farming great-grandparents, my diet would be based on the wheat and milk products that people in the Punjab have relied on for probably at least the last two thousand years. But delicious and “original” as it might be for me to follow its lead, the morals of industrially farmed milk products in the 21st century make the situation more confusing and complicated. Now, probably more than ever before, what we eat connects us to the fate of other beings, human and non-human, and to the fate of our planet. A dogmatic (武断的) approach to this would be a mistake. Better to preserve what’s worth keeping and remain clear-eyed about our cooking past, much of which is unknowable, immoral and impossible to follow in any case. 8. What does the text concern? A. An ancient study. B. An immoral case. C. A balanced diet. D A popular belief. 9. Why does the author mention Cheddar Man in paragraph 3? A. To illustrate an opinion. B. To present a fact. C. To clarify a concept. D. To introduce a theory. 10. What does the author focus on in paragraph 4? A. The eating behavior of our great-grandparents. B. The connection between food choice and nature. C. The relationship among eating,hunting and farming. D. The impact of food overconsumption on the environment. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Punjabi diet:popular again B. Should we eat like our ancestors? C. Is the fate of the planet in our hands? D. Our cooking past:a complicated history 【答案】8 D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了从石器时代到现代等不同时期人类的饮食选择的见解与看法，说明我们最好保留值得保留的东西，并对我们的饮食历史保持清醒的认识。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In this period of anxiety about the size of our waists and what we consume, simple dietary rules are appealing. “Eat like our ancestors” is a particularly catchy slogan (口号) to live by.(在这个对腰围大小和消费的东西感到焦虑的时期，简单的饮食规则很有吸引力。“像我们的祖先一样吃饭”是一个特别吸引人的口号。)”可知，在现代，简单的饮食规则很有吸引力，现在最受欢迎的口号是“像我们祖先那样吃饭”，从而引出本文的话题。由此可知本文关注的话题为一种受欢迎的信念。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Nevertheless, England’s 9,000-year-old Cheddar Man would not have eaten the same foods as his contemporaries on the Kenyan plain.(然而，拥有9000年历史的英格兰切达人不会吃与他在肯尼亚平原上的同时代人相同的食物。)”讲述的是英国九千年前的Cheddar Man吃的食物与肯尼亚平原上的同时代人不同，由此可知，此处阐述的是一种观点和看法。故选A项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。分析段落的结构可知，第四段中的首句“Moreover, the stone age trend is focused on what’s perceived to be good for our bodies, without any concern for the rest of nature, including other humans whose livelihoods are threatened by western overconsumption.(此外，石器时代的趋势集中在被认为对我们身体有益的东西上，而不关心自然界的其他部分，包括其他生计受到西方过度消费威胁的人。)”是本段的主题句，此段讲述的是石器时代人们选择的是我们认为对我们身体有益的东西，根本不考虑大自然的其他方面。由此可知，该段分析的是石器时代人们对食物的选择与大自然的关系。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段中的““Eat like our ancestors” is a particularly catchy slogan (口号) to live by.(“像我们的祖先一样吃饭”是一个特别吸引人的口号。)”引出本文讲述的话题，接下来文章又分析不同时代的人们对饮食观点和看法，再结合文章尾段中的“Better to preserve what’s worth keeping and remain clear-eyed about our cooking past, much of which is unknowable, immoral and impossible to follow in any case.(最好保留值得保留的东西，并对我们的烹饪历史保持清醒，其中大部分是不可知的，不道德的，无论如何都不可能遵循的。)”可知，我们在对食物作出选择的时候要保持清醒的头脑，不能一味地跟随以前的消费想法，综合以上分析，该段的标题可以为“我们要不要像我们的祖先那样消费？”。故选B项。 D Animals hibernate (冬眠) to conserve energy during cold weather or when food becomes scarce, slowing their heart rate and dropping their body temperature to as low as 5℃. This is only survivable if their blood continues to flow efficiently and supply oxygen to the body. We already know that red blood cells change shape to fit different pressures and blood vessel sizes. To investigate if something like this happens in the cells of hibernating animals to keep blood flowing, Gerald Kerth at the University of Greifswald in Germany and his colleagues turned to bats. They analyzed hundreds of thousands of red blood cells from common noctule bats, which hibernate and Egyptian fruit bats, which don’t, along with cells from people. The researchers found that for all three species, red blood cells became less flexible and stickier as temperatures dropped from 37℃ to 23℃. But when they cooled the cells even further to 10℃, the bat cells continued this metamorphosis, whereas the human cells did not. Indeed, the bat cells — even those of non-hibernating bats, which probably maintained the evolutionary capacity — continued to become thick, stiff and functional even at very low temperatures. This might be slowing down the cells as they pass through the tiny vessels in the muscles and lungs, making them highly efficient at exchanging gases, like oxygen, throughout the body. “It is like how when you take your time at the supermarket instead of being rushed, you can really fill up your basket,” says Kerth. Exactly how this structural change happens is still unclear, but the team guesses that the mechanical properties of the bat red blood cell membranes (细胞膜) play a key role. The findings suggest that drugs could one day include human red blood cell membranes to imitate the way bat membranes react to the cold, says Kerth. In the more distant future, hibernation could also allow for efficient long-distance space travel, requiring minimal food and other resources while preserving mental health during the journey. “There are benefits of putting humans at low temperature during space flight,” says Kerth. 12. What did Gerald Kerth’s study focus on? A. Blood flow. B. Blood vessel sizes. C. Red blood cells. D. Different pressures. 13. What does the underlined word “metamorphosis” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Change. B. Growth. C. Damage. D. Movement. 14. Why does Kerth mention shopping at a supermarket? A. To prove the evolutionary capacity of bats. B. To show the role of red blood cell membranes. C. To indicate how the structural change happens. D. To illustrate the efficiency of exchanging gases. 15. How will hibernation help long-space travel? A. By offering astronauts resources. B. By speeding up astronauts’ travel. C. By reducing resource consumption. D. By maintaining astronauts’ overall health. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了蝙蝠红细胞在低温下的变化及其对冬眠和太空旅行的潜在意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“We already know that red blood cells change shape to fit different pressures and blood vessel sizes. To investigate if something like this happens in the cells of hibernating animals to keep blood flowing, Gerald Kerth at the University of Greifswald in Germany and his colleagues turned to bats. (我们已经知道红细胞会改变形状以适应不同的压力和血管大小。为了调查冬眠动物的细胞中是否发生了类似的事情以保持血液流动，德国格赖夫斯瓦尔德大学的杰拉尔德·克思和他的同事们转而研究蝙蝠)”可知，因此，杰拉尔德·克思的研究重点是红细胞。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。由第三段“The researchers found that for all three species, red blood cells became less flexible and stickier as temperatures dropped from 37℃ to 23℃. But when they cooled the cells even further to 10℃, the bat cells continued this metamorphosis, whereas the human cells did not. (研究人员发现，对于这三个物种，当温度从 37℃降至 23℃时，红细胞的柔韧性降低，黏性增强。但当他们将细胞温度进一步降至 10℃时，蝙蝠的细胞会继续这种metamorphosis，而人类细胞则不会)”可知，对于这三个物种，当温度从 37℃降至 23℃时，红细胞的柔韧性降低，黏性增强，也就是发生变化。当他们将细胞进一步冷却到10℃时，蝙蝠细胞继续这种变化。由此可知，metamorphosis意思是“变化”，与Change“变化”意思相符。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由倒数第三段中“This might be slowing down the cells as they pass through the tiny vessels in the muscles and lungs, making them highly efficient at exchanging gases, like oxygen, throughout the body. (这可能会使细胞在通过肌肉和肺部的微小血管时速度减慢，从而使它们在全身高效地进行气体交换，比如氧气交换)”和倒数第二段中““It is like how when you take your time at the supermarket instead of being rushed, you can really fill up your basket,” says Kerth. (克思说：“这就好比你在超市不慌不忙，而不是匆匆忙忙，这样你就能真正装满你的购物篮。” )”可知，克思提到在超市购物是为了说明气体交换的效率。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。由最后一段中“In the more distant future, hibernation could also allow for efficient long-distance space travel, requiring minimal food and other resources while preserving mental health during the journey. (在更遥远的未来，冬眠还有可能实现高效的长途太空旅行，在旅途中只需极少的食物和其他资源，同时还能保持心理健康)”可知，冬眠可以通过减少资源消耗来帮助长途太空旅行。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。 Are you struggling with low self-esteem (自尊)? If so, you may have been told to repeat phrases such as “I’m a lovable person”. ___16___ However, when psychologists tested the effects of such positive self-talk, they found “toxic positivity” — the phenomenon that a forced optimistic interpretation of our experiences alongside the bottling up of negative emotions can do real damage. ___17___ Beginning in the industrial revolution, socioeconomic goals around productivity and efficiency contributed to a culture where emotions, especially paralyzing ones like sadness, were seen as handbrakes to economic output. If someone was struggling, they were advised to have more faith rather than encouraged to explore the root causes. Science also takes some blame. Historically, psychologists didn’t consider emotions as justified phenomena to study, so there was little understanding of their significant impact on mental health. It isn’t surprising that we want to believe things will turn out better if we have positive attitude. After all, there is a growing body of research indicating that an optimistic outlook on life does have benefits, such as promoting physical health, boosting energy, and reducing stress. It also isn’t surprising that we label certain emotions, like anger, guilt, fear, and bitterness, as bad because they do feel unpleasant. ___18___ Nevertheless, it is becoming apparent that positivity has its limits. In 2021, a meta-analysis with more than 217, 000 participants investigated the link between optimism, pessimism and mortality. It found that an optimistic outlook was indeed associated with the lower risk of death, however, both unrealistic optimism and pessimism were linked to a higher risk of death. ___19___ How can we escape toxic positivity? Susan Davis from Harvard Medical School emphasizes the importance of allowing ourselves to sit with uncomfortable emotions. ___20___ The key to managing emotions does not lie in judging oneself for feeling negative emotions, but simply experiencing them, knowing that they will pass. A. We need to accept them as a normal part of human experience. B. Our tendency to avoid the darker aspects of human experience isn’t new. C. When we experience them, we can become consumed, disturbed or inactive. D. Neglecting negative emotions is also found to be harmful to our mental health. E. They urge us to inject a bit of positive emotion into our day to gain the benefits. F. Positive chants like this are set to boost a person’s mood and feelings of self-worth. G. We are more likely to perceive normal emotions as mental problems needing treatment. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. C 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了消极情绪给人带来的影响以及应该如何应对消极情绪。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Are you struggling with low self-esteem (自尊)? If so, you may have been told to repeat phrases such as “I’m a lovable person”.(你是否在与自卑作斗争？如果是这样，你可能被告知要重复诸如“我是一个可爱的人”之类的短语)”以及后文“However, when psychologists tested the effects of such positive self-talk, they found “toxic positivity” — the phenomenon that a forced optimistic interpretation of our experiences alongside the bottling up of negative emotions can do real damage.(然而，当心理学家测试这种积极的自言自语的效果时，他们发现了“有毒的积极”——一种强迫乐观地解释我们的经历，同时压抑消极情绪的现象，会造成真正的伤害)”可知，后文与本句构成转折，推测本句主要解释上文“重复诸如“我是一个可爱的人”之类的短语”这类语言的作用，F选项中Positive chants like this对应上文repeat phrases。故F选项“像这样的积极的重复话语是用来提升一个人的情绪和自我价值感的”符合语境，故选F。 【17题详解】 根据本段内容“Beginning in the industrial revolution, socioeconomic goals around productivity and efficiency contributed to a culture where emotions, especially paralyzing ones like sadness, were seen as handbrakes to economic output. If someone was struggling, they were advised to have more faith rather than encouraged to explore the root causes. Science also takes some blame. Historically, psychologists didn’t consider emotions as justified phenomena to study, so there was little understanding of their significant impact on mental health.(从工业革命开始，围绕生产力和效率的社会经济目标促成了一种文化，在这种文化中，情绪，尤其是像悲伤这样的麻痹性情绪，被视为经济产出的手闸。如果有人正在挣扎，他们会被建议要有更多的信心，而不是被鼓励去探索根本原因。科学也要承担一些责任。从历史上看，心理学家并不认为情绪是一种合理的研究现象，因此人们对情绪对心理健康的重大影响知之甚少)”可知，本段主要介绍了人类回避消极情绪的历史起源，故B选项“我们回避人类经历阴暗面的倾向并不新鲜”符合语境，故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“It also isn’t surprising that we label certain emotions, like anger, guilt, fear, and bitterness, as bad because they do feel unpleasant.(我们把某些情绪，如愤怒、内疚、恐惧和痛苦，贴上不好的标签，因为它们确实让人感到不愉快，这也不足为奇)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，上文提到了一些消极的情绪，推测本句承接上文，说明这些情绪所带来的影响，C选项中them对应上文certain emotions。故C选项“当我们经历它们的时候，我们会变得疲惫、不安或不活跃”符合语境，故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文“It found that an optimistic outlook was indeed associated with the lower risk of death, however, both unrealistic optimism and pessimism were linked to a higher risk of death. (研究发现，乐观的前景确实与较低的死亡风险有关，然而，不切实际的乐观和悲观都与较高的死亡风险有关)”可知，本句是对上文研究发现的补充说明，说明关于负面情绪的发现，D选项中also found对应上文found。故D选项“忽视负面情绪也被发现对我们的心理健康有害”符合语境，故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“How can we escape toxic positivity? Susan Davis from Harvard Medical School emphasizes the importance of allowing ourselves to sit with uncomfortable emotions.(我们怎样才能摆脱有害的积极情绪呢？哈佛医学院的苏珊·戴维斯强调了让自己面对不舒服情绪的重要性)”以及后文“The key to managing emotions does not lie in judging oneself for feeling negative emotions, but simply experiencing them, knowing that they will pass. (管理情绪的关键不在于判断自己是否有负面情绪，而在于体验它们，知道它们会过去)”可知，上文提到让自己面对不舒服情绪的重要性，后文提到了管理方法，可知需要先接受不舒服的情绪，然后进行情绪管理。故A选项“我们需要接受它们是人类经历的正常组成部分”符合语境，故选A。 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) Shaine Kilyun was scrolling through videos on her phone one night in December 2020.

I heard him say, “Yes, Miss Beisner,” and “I understand what you’re saying, Miss Beisner. I appreciate you sharing this information. We’ll see what we can do about the situation. Thank you for calling. Goodbye.” Miss Beisner was my first-grade teacher, and I loved her. I thought she felt the same about me, but now I was beginning to wonder. The tone of Dad’s voice, the redness in his cheeks, and his repeated clenching. And unclenching of fists made it pretty clear. This was not a warm and fuzzy good news-from-the-teacher call. As I was deciding whether I should lock myself in my bedroom for the rest of my life or run away from home, Dad hung up the phone. “Jacquie, come here and sit down. We need to talk.” Uh-oh. When Dad said, “We need to talk,” it meant he needed to talk, and I needed to listen. I shuffled (拖着脚走) over to the well-worn brown chair in the corner of the living room, plopped down, and waited to hear the nature of my crime. Dad told me that Miss Beisner thought I was bright but not working up to my ability. She said I had strong verbal skills but weak study habits. Translation: I never closed my mouth, and I seldom opened a book. Apparently, my failure to memorize the addition facts, or even attempt to, was more than she was willing to put up with. Hence, the telephone call. Dad ended our one-way conversation with a verbal outline for his plan of attack. Bubbles, our Toy Manchester Terrier, was going to teach me math. Silently, I thought, No way is any dumb dog going to teach me how to add, not even our beloved Bubbles. Out loud, I said, “How?” Dad summoned Bubbles from her bed near the stove and commanded her to sit. “Bubbles,” Dad said, “how much is five plus three?” Bubbles let out eight loud, crisp barks. I was incredulous (满腹狐疑的). I couldn’t understand how a dog could add, and I was more than a little embarrassed by the fact that the family dog was smarter than me. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: After that, I threw myself into math with newfound determination. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: One day, I asked Dad whether Bubbles really knew how to add. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 After that, I threw myself into math with newfound determination. Instead of hanging out with my friends after school, I would perch at the kitchen table, textbooks splayed out before me, and practice addition and subtraction. I thought to myself, if Bubbles, a dog, could learn math, then surely, I could too. With each passing week, I could see the fruits of my labor. Occasionally, during our study sessions, Dad would call Bubbles over. She would bark out the correct answers to simple math problems — it was a unique, interactive way for me to assess my progress. I swelled with pride at my achievements, my parents were overjoyed, and Miss Beisner’s smile returned. One day, I asked Dad whether Bubbles really knew how to add. I couldn’t help but wonder if there was a trick or if it was all simply a coincidence. Dad, with a knowing smile, explained that Bubbles didn’t actually possess the ability to solve math problems. In reality, he had trained her to respond to certain cues. When he posed a math question, he would subtly tap his foot a certain number of times, prompting Bubbles to bark the corresponding number. Despite the initial disappointment, I realized that it was my own effort and perseverance that led to my improvement in math. My grades continued on an upward path. Bubbles couldn’t add, subtract, multiply or divide, but she sure could teach. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和家里的一只名叫“泡泡”的宠物狗一起学数学的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在那之后，我带着新的决心全身心投入到数学中。”可知，第一段可描写我决心全身心投入学习数学的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“有一天，我问爸爸“泡泡”是不是真的会加法。”可知，第二段可描写爸爸解释泡泡实际上并不具备解决数学问题的能力。 2.续写线索：决心全身心投入到数学——练习加减法——我的数学有提高了——问爸爸“泡泡”是不是真的会加法——爸爸解释原因——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①闲逛：hanging out/hanging around/hanging about ②评估：assess/evaluate ③具备，拥有：possess/have/ be equipped with 情绪类 ①欣喜若狂：overjoyed/rapturous/ecstatic ②失望：disappointment/despair 【点睛】[高分句型1]When he posed a math question, he would subtly tap his foot a certain number of times, prompting Bubbles to bark the corresponding number.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句以及非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语） [高分句型2]Despite the initial disappointment, I realized that it was my own effort and perseverance that led to my improvement in math. （运用了从属连词that引导的宾语从句以及it was…that…的强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
