If you’re ready for a different take on Europe this fall, we’ve got ideas. ● Alentejo, Portugal The Douro Valley, known for the production of port wine, is the obvious autumn choice in Portugal. But head instead to the Alentejo region, Portugal’s rural heartland. Here, you can see Roman remains in its UNESCO-protected capital Evora, go on a road trip through peaceful countryside planted with cork trees and olive groves, and enjoy the wild coast. ● Romania Spending Halloween at “Dracula’s castle” is just one of the reasons to consider visiting Romania in autumn, which offers volunteer trips that might see you helping conservation efforts with rescued bears in Brasov. In addition to autumn’s changing leaves, the season marks the start of all kinds of foodie events. ● Thessaloniki, Greece Fall is considered a great time to visit Thessaloniki, Greece’s gateway city to the Balkans, not for its beaches but for its rich Jewish history. The city is also known for its flavorful and diverse food scenes. Travelers can embark on an adventure, enjoying local delicacies, including bougatsa, loukoumades, and fresh seafood from the Aegean Sea. ● Malta The Mediterranean archipelago of Malta — consisting of three inhabited islands, Malta, Gozo and Comino — is another summertime oven that becomes far more pleasant to visit once temperatures drop. Malta is always popular with scuba divers who explore the many World War II shipwrecks lying offshore, as well as the Blue Hole — a 50-foot-deep tube-like rock formation filled by the sea, with an archway and cave at its bottom. 21. Who would be attracted to Alentejo and Thessaloniki? A. History enthusiasts. B. Beach lovers. C. Foodies. D. Environmentalists. 22. What do we know about Malta from the text? A. It’s inhabited by various wildlife. B. It’s extremely hot in the summer. C. It’s composed of two islands. D. It’s known for different-sized caves. 23. What's the purpose of writing the text? A. To explain why autumn is a good season to visit Europe. B. To recommend European destinations for autumn escapes. C. To provide a guide on some unique tours around Europe. D. To compare autumn travel with travel during other seasons. B A 70-year-old grandfather has successfully rowed a boat unassisted across the entire Atlantic Ocean —and he didn’t do it for himself. Frank Rothwell dedicated the extreme feat to his brother-in-law Roger, who died of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默病) during Frank’s crossing. Requiring 18 months of hard training, the entire trip took eight tough weeks for Rothwell to travel from La Gomera in the Canary Islands on December 12 to the finish line 3000 miles away in Antigua on February 6. “I like a challenge!” explains Frank on his fundraising site. “In 2017, I spent five weeks on a deserted island for the Channel 4 program, the Island with Bear Grylls. Before that, I was only the 10th person ever to circumnavigate North and South America.” In a statement, Hilary Evans, chief executive of Alzheimer’s Research UK, said, “We’re honored to have such amazing support from Frank. His courage and determination helped him to complete his epic challenge and raise £1 million for dementia (痴呆) research.” “This incredible amount will be a huge benefit to the groundbreaking research we carry out here at Alzheimer’s Research UK, as we continue our mission to bring about life-changing treatments for people affected by dementia,” added Evans. Crossing the finish line was an emotional moment for Rothwell. He said, “I am on cloud nine! I set out in December wishing to raise £1 million for Alzheimer’s Research UK but I never thought I’d actually achieve it. At times, the challenge was incredibly tough, with rough seas, huge waves, and missing my wife, Judith. But as exhausting as it was, it was all totally worth it.” He also said “Having received hundreds of messages from people who, like me, have witnessed the heartbreak of dementia, I am proud to have raised such an incredible amount in honor of Roger and everyone else who has experienced the destruction it causes.” 24. What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Fame. B. Career. C. Pressure. D. Achievement. 25. What words best describe Rothwell? A. Generous and wise. B. Humble and humorous. C. Caring and courageous. D. Optimistic and cautious. 26 What can we learn about Rothwell from his words? A. He had bittersweet yet fulfilling feelings. B. He completed the whole voyage with ease. C. He was proud to raise the money for treating Roger. D. He received countless messages from Alzheimer’s patients. 27. What could be the best title of this text? A. Grandfather’s Efforts against Dementia. B. Old Man’s Sea Crossing for Alzheimer. C. Incredible Donations from Ocean Adventure. D. Groundbreaking Breakthrough in Medical Research. C The rock group Counting Crows were onto something when they chose their band name. Crows (乌鸦) can indeed count, according to research published this week in Science. The results show that crows have counting capacities near those of human babies, says lead study author Diana Liao, a researcher at the University of Tübingen in Germany. “We think this is the first time this has been shown for any animal species,” she adds. Crows do not appear to be capable of symbolic counting, where numbers serve as an exact representation. Instead, the birds count by controlling the number of vocalizations (发声) they produce to correspond to associated hints. This is similar to how young children count before learning symbolic numbers, Liao says. For example, a baby who is asked how many apples are on a tree may answer, “One, one, one”. The baby produces the number of speech sounds which agree with that of the apples, rather than just saying, “Three.” In the study, Liao and her colleagues presented the crows with randomly ordered hints, four of which were visual-colored numbers that appeared on a touch screen. And four of them were auditory (听觉的), including sounds made by guitars and drums. Through trial and error, the birds had to figure out the correct number of calls to pair with each hint. If they got it right, they received a worm reward. After receiving about 180 training sessions, all of the crows were able to produce the correct number of vocalizations associated with the hints — a “pretty cool” finding, Liao says. She suspects, too, that the crows could have mastered numbers higher than four if they were given the opportunity. Onur Güntürkün, a biopsychologist at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany, who was not involved in the research, says the new paper is “excellent” even if the findings are “not unexpected” given all that scientists already know about crows’ intelligence. 28. What is the new research about? A. Crows’ ability to count. B. Crows’ skill of solving problems. C. A comparison between crows and babies. D. An investigation into a famous rock group. 29. Why does the author mention a baby counting apples in paragraph 3? A. To clarify how crows count. B. To explain how babies think. C. To illustrae the wisdom of crows. D. To display baby learning progress. 30. How did the crows get the worm rewards? A. By counting objects on the screen. B. By picking colors from the touch screen. C. By choosing between sounds and images. D. By matching sounds to visual and audio hints. 31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The research is poorly recognized. B. The results fit with previous findings. C. The study needs further confirmation. D. The biopsychologist is critical of the study. D Music and arts classes are often the first to be cut when schools face tight budgets and pressure to achieve high scores on standardized tests. But it’s precisely those classes that can increase student interest in school and even benefit their math achievement, according to a new study. Daniel Mackin Freeman and Dara Shifrer, used a large nationally representative dataset to see which types of arts classes impact math achievement and how it varies based on the socio-economic composition of the school. Schools with lower socio-economic status (SES) have a higher percentage of students qualified for free or reduced lunch. The researchers found that taking music courses at higher-or-mid-SES schools relates to higher math scores. Mackin Freeman said that’s not a surprise given the ways in which music and math overlap. “If you think about it at an intuitive (直觉的) level, reading music is just doing math,” he said. “Of course, it’s a different type of math but it might be a more engaging form of math for students than learning calculus (微积分).” However, the positive relationship between music course-taking and math achievement is primarily isolated to schools that serve more socially privileged students. The study suggests this could be because arts courses in low-SES schools are of lower quality and/or under-resourced. Students in low-SES schools also take fewer music and arts classes on average compared to their peers, also suggesting low-SES schools are under-resourced when it comes to arts courses. “It’d be reasonable to expect that at under-resourced schools, the quality of the music program would distinguish any potential connection to other subjects,” Mackin Freeman said. “For programs as resource-intensive as something like band, under-resourced schools are less likely to even have working instruments, let alone an instructor who can teach students to read music in a way that they can make connections to arithmetic (算术).” Mackin Freeman said the findings suggest that learning shouldn’t happen in only one subject and the ways some schools have attempted to increase math achievement — by over-emphasizing math and cutting the arts — is shortsighted and counterproductive. 32. Which statement would Mackin Freeman agree with? A. Math should replace music. B. Music is easier to learn than math. C. Math and music share similar features. D. Music is directly linked to academic achievement. 33. How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed? A. By making a contrast. B. By giving examples. C. By describing a process. D. By analyzing causes. 34. Why can’t the students in low-SES schools achieve high scores in math? A. They pay no attention. B. They have limited resources. C. They care more about math grades. D. Their students are not smart enough. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. Fewer arts lessons, higher maths grades. B. Higher income better math achievement. C. Investment in math needed by under-privileged schools. D. Music linked to higher math scores at wealthier schools. 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。 “We are what we eat” — or so the saying goes.

Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t make sense of it. Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Then came Mr. Jenkins, her new math teacher, who sensed her frustration and offered to help her after class. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But — she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change. Mr. Jenkins didn’t dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible (有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. However, progress was slow. Weeks passed by, minimal improvement, and Emily’s patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears. She was convinced that she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said, “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas (画布). Masterpieces aren’t created overnight.” Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, how each solution followed a logical path. Small victories in practice problems gave her some hope. Mr. Jenkins was always there, celebrating her successes, no matter how minor. 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。 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$2024学年第二学期温州环大罗山联盟期中联考高二年级英语学科。试题第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。Hi jim, what's your plan for this weekend?

If you’re ready for a different take on Europe this fall, we’ve got ideas. ● Alentejo, Portugal The Douro Valley, known for the production of port wine, is the obvious autumn choice in Portugal. But head instead to the Alentejo region, Portugal’s rural heartland. Here, you can see Roman remains in its UNESCO-protected capital Evora, go on a road trip through peaceful countryside planted with cork trees and olive groves, and enjoy the wild coast. ● Romania Spending Halloween at “Dracula’s castle” is just one of the reasons to consider visiting Romania in autumn, which offers volunteer trips that might see you helping conservation efforts with rescued bears in Brasov. In addition to autumn’s changing leaves, the season marks the start of all kinds of foodie events. ● Thessaloniki, Greece Fall is considered a great time to visit Thessaloniki, Greece’s gateway city to the Balkans, not for its beaches but for its rich Jewish history. The city is also known for its flavorful and diverse food scenes. Travelers can embark on an adventure, enjoying local delicacies, including bougatsa, loukoumades, and fresh seafood from the Aegean Sea. ● Malta The Mediterranean archipelago of Malta — consisting of three inhabited islands, Malta, Gozo and Comino — is another summertime oven that becomes far more pleasant to visit once temperatures drop. Malta is always popular with scuba divers who explore the many World War II shipwrecks lying offshore, as well as the Blue Hole — a 50-foot-deep tube-like rock formation filled by the sea, with an archway and cave at its bottom. 21. Who would be attracted to Alentejo and Thessaloniki? A. History enthusiasts. B. Beach lovers. C. Foodies. D. Environmentalists. 22. What do we know about Malta from the text? A. It’s inhabited by various wildlife. B. It’s extremely hot in the summer. C. It’s composed of two islands. D. It’s known for different-sized caves. 23 What's the purpose of writing the text? A. To explain why autumn is a good season to visit Europe. B. To recommend European destinations for autumn escapes. C. To provide a guide on some unique tours around Europe. D. To compare autumn travel with travel during other seasons. 【答案】21. A 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了秋天是游览欧洲的最佳时节之一，并推荐了几个秋季欧洲旅游目的地。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据Alentejo, Portugal标题下“But head instead to the Alentejo region, Portugal’s rural heartland. Here, you can see Roman remains in its UNESCO-protected capital Evora, go on a road trip through peaceful countryside planted with cork trees and olive groves, and enjoy the wild coast.(但还是去Alentejo地区吧，这里是葡萄牙乡村的中心地带。在这里，你可以看到联合国教科文组织保护的首都埃武拉的罗马遗迹，在种植着软木树和橄榄林的宁静乡村进行公路旅行，享受野性的海岸)”以及Thessaloniki, Greece标题下“Fall is considered a great time to visit Thessaloniki, Greece’s gateway city to the Balkans, not for its beaches but for its rich Jewish history.(秋天被认为是游览希腊巴尔干门户城市Thessaloniki的好时机，不是因为它的海滩，而是因为它丰富的犹太历史)”可知，对历史感兴趣的人会被Alentejo和Thessaloniki吸引。故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Malta标题下“The Mediterranean archipelago of Malta — consisting of three inhabited islands, Malta, Gozo and Comino — is another summertime oven that becomes far more pleasant to visit once temperatures drop.(地中海的马耳他群岛由三个有人居住的岛屿组成——马耳他岛、戈佐岛和科米诺岛——是另一个夏季酷热的地方，一旦气温下降，这里就会变得更加宜人)”可知，马耳他在夏天非常热。故选B。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Fall is one of the best times to visit Europe because of the vast variety of interests the season can cater to. If you’re ready for a different take on Europe this fall, we’ve got ideas.(秋天是游览欧洲的最佳时节之一，因为这个季节可以满足各种各样的兴趣。如果你已经准备好在这个秋天对欧洲有一个不同的看法，我们有一些想法)”以及下文对几个秋季欧洲旅游目的地的推荐可知，本文的写作目的是推荐欧洲秋季旅游目的地。故选B。 B A 70-year-old grandfather has successfully rowed a boat unassisted across the entire Atlantic Ocean —and he didn’t do it for himself. Frank Rothwell dedicated the extreme feat to his brother-in-law Roger, who died of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默病) during Frank’s crossing. Requiring 18 months of hard training, the entire trip took eight tough weeks for Rothwell to travel from La Gomera in the Canary Islands on December 12 to the finish line 3000 miles away in Antigua on February 6. “I like a challenge!” explains Frank on his fundraising site. “In 2017, I spent five weeks on a deserted island for the Channel 4 program, the Island with Bear Grylls. Before that, I was only the 10th person ever to circumnavigate North and South America.” In a statement, Hilary Evans, chief executive of Alzheimer’s Research UK, said, “We’re honored to have such amazing support from Frank. His courage and determination helped him to complete his epic challenge and raise £1 million for dementia (痴呆) research.” “This incredible amount will be a huge benefit to the groundbreaking research we carry out here at Alzheimer’s Research UK, as we continue our mission to bring about life-changing treatments for people affected by dementia,” added Evans. Crossing the finish line was an emotional moment for Rothwell. He said, “I am on cloud nine! I set out in December wishing to raise £1 million for Alzheimer’s Research UK but I never thought I’d actually achieve it. At times, the challenge was incredibly tough, with rough seas, huge waves, and missing my wife, Judith. But as exhausting as it was, it was all totally worth it.” He also said, “Having received hundreds of messages from people who, like me, have witnessed the heartbreak of dementia, I am proud to have raised such an incredible amount in honor of Roger and everyone else who has experienced the destruction it causes.” 24. What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Fame. B. Career. C. Pressure. D. Achievement. 25. What words best describe Rothwell? A. Generous and wise. B. Humble and humorous. C. Caring and courageous. D. Optimistic and cautious. 26. What can we learn about Rothwell from his words? A. He had bittersweet yet fulfilling feelings. B. He completed the whole voyage with ease. C. He was proud to raise the money for treating Roger. D. He received countless messages from Alzheimer’s patients. 27. What could be the best title of this text? A. Grandfather’s Efforts against Dementia. B. Old Man’s Sea Crossing for Alzheimer. C. Incredible Donations from Ocean Adventure. D. Groundbreaking Breakthrough in Medical Research. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一位70岁的老爷爷横渡大西洋，为痴呆症研究筹集了100万英镑的事迹。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“A 70-year-old grandfather has successfully rowed a boat unassisted across the entire Atlantic Ocean —and he didn’t do it for himself.(一位70岁的老爷爷在无人帮助的情况下成功地划着船横渡了整个大西洋——而且他并不是为自己这么做的)”可知，此处指70岁老人横渡大西洋的成就，故划线词意思是“成就”。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““This incredible amount will be a huge benefit to the groundbreaking research we carry out here at Alzheimer’s Research UK, as we continue our mission to bring about life-changing treatments for people affected by dementia,” added Evans.(埃文斯补充说：“这一惊人的数额将为我们在英国阿尔茨海默氏症研究所进行的开创性研究带来巨大的好处，因为我们将继续为痴呆症患者带来改变生活的治疗方法。”)”以及第三段“His courage and determination helped him to complete his epic challenge and raise £1 million for dementia research.(他的勇气和决心帮助他完成了这一史诗般的挑战，并为痴呆症研究筹集了100万英镑)”可知，罗斯威尔有爱心和勇气。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“At times, the challenge was incredibly tough, with rough seas, huge waves, and missing my wife, Judith. But as exhausting as it was, it was all totally worth it.(有时，挑战是难以置信的艰难，伴随着汹涌的大海，巨大的海浪，我想念我的妻子朱迪思。尽管很累，但这一切都是值得的)”可知，他有苦乐参半但又很有成就感的感觉。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A 70-year-old grandfather has successfully rowed a boat unassisted across the entire Atlantic Ocean —and he didn’t do it for himself.(一位70岁的老爷爷在无人帮助的情况下成功地划着船横渡了整个大西洋——而且他并不是为自己这么做的)”结合文章主要说明了一位70岁的老爷爷横渡大西洋，为痴呆症研究筹集了100万英镑的事迹。可知，B选项最符合文章标题。故选B。 C The rock group Counting Crows were onto something when they chose their band name. Crows (乌鸦) can indeed count, according to research published this week in Science. The results show that crows have counting capacities near those of human babies, says lead study author Diana Liao, a researcher at the University of Tübingen in Germany. “We think this is the first time this has been shown for any animal species,” she adds. Crows do not appear to be capable of symbolic counting, where numbers serve as an exact representation. Instead, the birds count by controlling the number of vocalizations (发声) they produce to correspond to associated hints. This is similar to how young children count before learning symbolic numbers, Liao says. For example, a baby who is asked how many apples are on a tree may answer, “One, one, one”. The baby produces the number of speech sounds which agree with that of the apples, rather than just saying, “Three.” In the study, Liao and her colleagues presented the crows with randomly ordered hints, four of which were visual-colored numbers that appeared on a touch screen. And four of them were auditory (听觉的), including sounds made by guitars and drums. Through trial and error, the birds had to figure out the correct number of calls to pair with each hint. If they got it right, they received a worm reward. After receiving about 180 training sessions, all of the crows were able to produce the correct number of vocalizations associated with the hints — a “pretty cool” finding, Liao says. She suspects, too, that the crows could have mastered numbers higher than four if they were given the opportunity. Onur Güntürkün, a biopsychologist at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany, who was not involved in the research, says the new paper is “excellent” even if the findings are “not unexpected” given all that scientists already know about crows’ intelligence. 28. What is the new research about? A. Crows’ ability to count. B. Crows’ skill of solving problems. C. A comparison between crows and babies. D. An investigation into a famous rock group. 29. Why does the author mention a baby counting apples in paragraph 3? A. To clarify how crows count. B. To explain how babies think. C. To illustrae the wisdom of crows. D. To display baby learning progress. 30. How did the crows get the worm rewards? A. By counting objects on the screen. B. By picking colors from the touch screen. C. By choosing between sounds and images. D. By matching sounds to visual and audio hints. 31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The research is poorly recognized. B. The results fit with previous findings. C. The study needs further confirmation. D. The biopsychologist is critical of the study. 【答案】28. A 29. A 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了关于乌鸦计数能力的新研究，乌鸦的计数能力接近人类婴儿。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“The results show that crows have counting capacities near those of human babies, says lead study author Diana Liao, a researcher at the University of Tübingen in Germany. (该研究的主要作者、德国图宾根大学的研究员Diana Liao说，研究结果表明，乌鸦的计数能力接近人类婴儿。)”可知，该研究结果表明，乌鸦的计数能力接近人类婴儿，由此可知，这项新研究是关于乌鸦的计数能力。故选A项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“Instead, the birds count by controlling the number of vocalizations (发声) they produce to correspond to associated hints. This is similar to how young children count before learning symbolic numbers, Liao says. (相反，鸟类通过控制它们发出的声音数量来计数，以对应相关的提示。廖说，这类似于幼儿在学习符号数字之前的计数方式。)”可知，鸟类的计数方式类似于幼儿在学习符号数字之前的计数方式，幼儿数苹果正是幼儿在学习符号数字之前的计数方式，由此可知，作者在第3段中提到幼儿数苹果是为了阐明乌鸦是如何计数的。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段内容“In the study, Liao and her colleagues presented the crows with randomly ordered hints, four of which were visual-colored numbers that appeared on a touch screen. And four of them were auditory (听觉的), including sounds made by guitars and drums. Through trial and error, the birds had to figure out the correct number of calls to pair with each hint. If they got it right, they received a worm reward. (在这项研究中，廖和她的同事们向乌鸦提供了随机排列的提示，其中四个是出现在触摸屏上的视觉彩色数字。其中四个是听觉的，包括吉他和鼓发出的声音。通过反复试验，鸟类必须找出与每个提示配对的正确叫声数量。如果它们做对了，它们会得到蠕虫奖励。)”可知，乌鸦需要将触摸屏上的视觉彩色数字和听觉的声音匹配正确，才会得到蠕虫奖励，由此可知，乌鸦是通过将声音与视觉和听觉提示相匹配得到虫子奖励。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“Onur Güntürkün, a biopsychologist at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany, who was not involved in the research, says the new paper is “excellent” even if the findings are “not unexpected” given all that scientists already know about crows’ intelligence. (德国波鸿鲁尔大学的生物心理学家Onur Güntürkün没有参与这项研究，他说，考虑到科学家们对乌鸦智力的所有了解，即使这些发现“并不出乎意料”，这篇新论文也是“优秀的”。)”可知，这些发现并不出乎意料，由此可知，从最后一段可以推断出研究结果与以前的发现一致。故选B项。 D Music and arts classes are often the first to be cut when schools face tight budgets and pressure to achieve high scores on standardized tests. But it’s precisely those classes that can increase student interest in school and even benefit their math achievement, according to a new study. Daniel Mackin Freeman and Dara Shifrer, used a large nationally representative dataset to see which types of arts classes impact math achievement and how it varies based on the socio-economic composition of the school. Schools with lower socio-economic status (SES) have a higher percentage of students qualified for free or reduced lunch. The researchers found that taking music courses at higher-or-mid-SES schools relates to higher math scores. Mackin Freeman said that’s not a surprise given the ways in which music and math overlap. “If you think about it at an intuitive (直觉的) level, reading music is just doing math,” he said. “Of course, it’s a different type of math but it might be a more engaging form of math for students than learning calculus (微积分).” However, the positive relationship between music course-taking and math achievement is primarily isolated to schools that serve more socially privileged students. The study suggests this could be because arts courses in low-SES schools are of lower quality and/or under-resourced. Students in low-SES schools also take fewer music and arts classes on average compared to their peers, also suggesting low-SES schools are under-resourced when it comes to arts courses. “It’d be reasonable to expect that at under-resourced schools, the quality of the music program would distinguish any potential connection to other subjects,” Mackin Freeman said. “For programs as resource-intensive as something like band, under-resourced schools are less likely to even have working instruments, let alone an instructor who can teach students to read music in a way that they can make connections to arithmetic (算术).” Mackin Freeman said the findings suggest that learning shouldn’t happen in only one subject and the ways some schools have attempted to increase math achievement — by over-emphasizing math and cutting the arts — is shortsighted and counterproductive. 32. Which statement would Mackin Freeman agree with? A. Math should replace music. B. Music is easier to learn than math. C. Math and music share similar features. D. Music is directly linked to academic achievement. 33. How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed? A. By making a contrast. B. By giving examples. C. By describing a process. D. By analyzing causes. 34. Why can’t the students in low-SES schools achieve high scores in math? A. They pay no attention. B. They have limited resources. C. They care more about math grades. D. Their students are not smart enough. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. Fewer arts lessons, higher maths grades. B. Higher income, better math achievement. C. Investment in math needed by under-privileged schools. D. Music linked to higher math scores at wealthier schools. 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项新研究表明音乐课与较富裕学校学生数学成绩提高有关。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Mackin Freeman said that’s not a surprise given the ways in which music and math overlap. “If you think about it at an intuitive (直觉的) level, reading music is just doing math,”(Mackin Freeman表示，考虑到音乐和数学的重叠方式，这并不奇怪。“如果你从直觉层面来考虑，读乐谱就是在做数学。”)”可知，Mackin Freeman会同意数学和音乐有相似之处这一观点。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, the positive relationship between music course-taking and math achievement is primarily isolated to schools that serve more socially privileged students. The study suggests this could be because arts courses in low-SES schools are of lower quality and/or under-resourced. Students in low-SES schools also take fewer music and arts classes on average compared to their peers, also suggesting low-SES schools are under-resourced when it comes to arts courses.(然而，参加音乐课程与数学成绩之间的积极关系主要局限于为社会地位较高的学生服务的学校。该研究表明，这可能是因为低社会经济地位学校的艺术课程质量较低和/或资源不足。与同龄人相比，低社会经济地位学校的学生平均参加的音乐和艺术课程也较少，这也表明低社会经济地位学校在艺术课程方面资源不足)”可知，第四段主要是通过分析原因来展开的。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中““It’d be reasonable to expect that at under-resourced schools, the quality of the music program would distinguish any potential connection to other subjects,” Mackin Freeman said.For programs as resource-intensive as something like band, under-resourced schools are less likely to even have working instruments, let alone an instructor who can teach students to read music in a way that they can make connections to arithmetic (算术).(麦金·弗里曼说：“在资源不足的学校，音乐课程的质量可以区分出与其他学科的潜在联系，这是有道理的。”对于像乐队这样资源密集型的项目，资源不足的学校甚至不太可能有可用的乐器，更不用说有一位能够教学生读乐谱的老师，让他们能够将乐谱与算术联系起来)”推知，社会经济地位较低学校的学生数学成绩不高是因为他们资源有限。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“But it’s precisely those classes that can increase student interest in school and even benefit their math achievement, according to a new study.(但一项新研究表明，正是这些课程可以提高学生对学校的兴趣，甚至有助于提高他们的数学成绩)”以及后文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一项新研究表明音乐课与较富裕学校学生数学成绩提高有关，因此D选项“Music linked to higher math scores at wealthier schools.(音乐与较富裕学校学生数学成绩提高有关)”最适合作文章标题。故选D。 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。 “We are what we eat” — or so the saying goes.

Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t make sense of it. Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Then came Mr. Jenkins, her new math teacher, who sensed her frustration and offered to help her after class. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But — she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change. Mr. Jenkins didn’t dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible (有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. However, progress was slow. Weeks passed by, minimal improvement, and Emily’s patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears. She was convinced that she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said, “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas (画布). Masterpieces aren’t created overnight.” Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, how each solution followed a logical path. Small victories in practice problems gave her some hope. Mr. Jenkins was always there, celebrating her successes, no matter how minor. 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。 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. She found herself approaching math problems with a newfound curiosity instead of anxiety. The once confusing numbers and symbols began to become patterns she could understand. Mr. Jenkins continued to teach her in his unique way and Emily started to enjoy the challenge. When it’s time for her to take the mid-term test, her once hesitant hand moved steadily across the paper. The joy she felt when a solution clicked into place was something she had never expected to experience with math. Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. She sat in the classroom, her hands trembling slightly as she received her test paper. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she saw the grade – a solid A. Tears of relief and happiness welled up in her eyes. She looked up at Mr. Jenkins, who stood at the back of the classroom, watching her with a proud smile. In that moment, Emily knew that she had not only conquered her fear of math but also discovered the power of perseverance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Emily Harper擅长艺术，但数学一直是她的弱项。尽管努力，她的成绩仍然不理想。她的父母找来退休教师Mr.Jenkins帮助她。通过独特的教学方式，Mr.Jenkins将数学与艺术联系起来，逐渐帮助Emily,克服了恐惧，最终取得了好成绩，证明了坚持的力量。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在Mr.Jenkins的帮助下，Emily的自信心逐渐增强。”可知，第一段可描写 Emily的转变的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“出成绩那天，Emily的心怦怦直跳”可知，第二段可描写Emily得知自己成绩的喜悦和出乎意料，明白了坚持的意义。 2.练写线索：信心增加——喜欢挑战——参加考试——得知考试成绩——惊喜——Emily的感悟 3词汇激活 行为类： ① 理解：understand /comprehend ② 开始：start /begin ③ 克服：conquered/got over 情绪类： ① 焦虑：anxiety/dread ② 快乐：happiness/joy 【点睛】【高分句型1】She looked up at Mr. Jenkins, who stood at the back of the classroom, watching her with a proud smile.（运用了who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】In that moment, Emily knew that she had not only conquered her fear of math but also discovered the power of perseverance.（运用了that引导的宾语从句以及“not only…but also…”连接两个并列结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
