Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience. Every Saturday morning, with a parent chosen as the coach to guide them, they laced up their shoes and set off. The first run was a real challenge. After running just several hundred meters, a few students were out of breath. Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly. In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools. Recognizing the potential link between decreased physical activity and health-related problems, various measures have been taken to reduce students’ academic pressure and increase their exercise time, such as reducing the after-school homework burden. The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity. It shows that with devotion and support, even a simple jogging routine can have a great effect on the well-being of young students. 4 Why did the parent association organize the morning jogging program? A. To meet the parents’ requirements. B. To live up to the coach’s expectations. C. To improve the students’ physical and mental health. D. To replace the school’s present physical education classes. 5. What can we learn about the students in the first run? A. Few of them felt energetic. B. Most of them gave up halfway. C. None of them completed the run. D. Not all of them made it to the end. 6. How is the seriousness of being overweight on students showed in paragraph 3? A. Through an unofficial report. B. Through data comparison. C. Through the schools’ prediction. D. Through individual imagination. 7. Which word can best describe the morning program? A. Influential. B. Traditional. C. Global. D. Commercial. 【答案】4 C 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学校开展晨跑项目来促进学生身心健康。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience.(在家长协会的组织下，学生们在北京的一个公园开始了一个5公里的晨跑项目，目的是提高他们的身体素质，建立自信，培养耐心)”可知，家长协会组织晨跑是为了促进学生身心健康。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly.(有些人甚至不能走到一半，有些人不得不互相支持才能到达终点线。然而，尽管困难重重，他们的决心从未动摇。一路上，许多人都感到精力充沛。大多数人在周六完成了第100次跑步，以庆祝即将到来的毕业，因为他们一直在定期锻炼)”可知，并不是所有学生都坚持到了最后。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools.(近年来，一些调查显示，在缺乏锻炼的学生中，肥胖率正在迅速上升。根据一份权威报告，现在6至17岁的年轻人中有五分之一超重，比1995年的二十分之一显著上升。除了体重问题，缺乏锻炼也导致了学校近视的增加)”可知，第3段通过数据比较说明学生超重的严重性。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity. It shows that with devotion and support, even a simple jogging routine can have a great effect on the well-being of young students.(六年级的慢跑项目就是一个鼓舞人心的例子，它提供了一个解决方案，帮助学生们通过体育活动找到更多的时间来体验健康、快乐和友谊。它表明，只要有奉献精神和支持，即使是简单的慢跑也能对年轻学生的健康产生巨大影响)”可推知，晨跑项目是有影响力的。故选A。 C A rare moss (苔藓) called takakia has adapted over hundreds of millions of years to survive the extremes of life on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. And there is a team of researchers who have been studying the moss for nearly ten years. Takakia includes just two species, both of which are found only on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Takakia in this location has been buried under snow for eight months of the year, and it faced strong UV rays when it came from its snowy cover. Takakia has been developing here for over 65 million years, with the habitat increasingly becoming extreme. The researchers record how climate change has greatly changed the moss’ habitat within just a few years. And the team is surprised to find takakia’s shape in 165 million-year-old fossils (化石) , showing that genetic changes affecting the shape developed more than 165 million years ago under wildly different conditions. Despite having hundreds of millions of years to adapt to climate change, the little moss will be ended if the global climate keeps getting warmer. Since they began taking measurements of takakia’s habitat in the early 2010s, the researchers have described an average temperature increase of almost 0.5℃ per year. Meanwhile, the glacier (冰川) near sample sites is melting at an alarming pace-around 50 meters per year. The researchers note that takakia’s populations have become significantly smaller over the study period. During the ten years, the coverage of takakia’s populations decreased by 1.6% every year, faster than that of four local common mosses — a trend they expect to continue. “Our study shows how valuable takakia is in tracing the development of land plants. The population reduction we found is frightening,” a researcher says. “Luckily, knowing that the plant is threatened by extinction also gives us a chance to protect it. For example, we can grow it in the lab,” another researcher says. “Takakia has seen the dinosaurs come and go. It has seen us humans coming. Now we can learn something about adaptive ability and extinction from this moss.” 8. What can be inferred about takakia on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from the text? A. Its habitat is free from snow. B. It has been developing wildly in China. C. It has adapted to extreme conditions for quite a time. D. Its genes have been unchanged for millions of years. 9. What might be the main threat to takakia according to paragraph 3? A. The rise of glacial water. B. Human harvesting. C. The competition with the local mosses. D. Global warming. 10. What is the attitude of the two researchers in the last paragraph to takakia? A. Curious. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Impatient. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The Ancient History of Takakia B. The Unique Adaptive Ability of Takakia C. The Threatened Survival of Takakia D. The Rapidly Increasing Population of Takakia 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述角叶藻苔在青藏高原长期适应极端环境，现因全球变暖数量锐减，生存受威胁 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A rare moss (苔藓) called takakia has adapted over hundreds of millions of years to survive the extremes of life on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.(一种名为‘角叶藻苔’的稀有苔藓已经在数亿年的时间里适应了青藏高原极端的生存环境。)”以及第二段“Takakia has been developing here for over 65 million years, with the habitat increasingly becoming extreme.(角叶藻苔已经在这里发展了超过6500万年，其栖息地越来越极端。)”可知，角叶藻苔在相当长的一段时间里已经适应了极端条件。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Despite having hundreds of millions of years to adapt to climate change, the little moss will be ended if the global climate keeps getting warmer.(尽管有数亿年的时间来适应气候变化，但如果全球气候继续变暖，这种小苔藓将会灭绝。)”可知，对角叶藻苔的主要威胁是全球变暖。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Our study shows how valuable takakia is in tracing the development of land plants. The population reduction we found is frightening,’ a researcher says.‘Luckily, knowing that the plant is threatened by extinction also gives us a chance to protect it. ’(一位研究人员说：‘我们的研究表明，角叶藻苔在追踪陆地植物的发展方面是多么有价值。我们发现的数量减少是令人恐惧的。幸运的是，知道这种植物受到灭绝的威胁也给了我们一个保护它的机会。’)”可知，研究人员认为角叶藻苔数量减少令人恐惧，并且提到要保护它，所以他们对角叶藻苔的态度是担忧的。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了角叶藻苔在青藏高原适应极端环境生存了很长时间，但是由于全球气候变暖，其栖息地发生变化，数量显著减少，面临灭绝的威胁。所以C选项The Threatened Survival of Takakia(角叶藻苔受到威胁的生存状况)符合文章主旨，可以作为最佳标题。故选C。 D China’s space exploration program has made a significant achievement in recent years. Besides, the nation plans to land its astronauts on the moon and conduct research. One key aspect of these missions is the lunar landing suit worn by China’s astronauts. China’s lunar landing suit shows the country’s creativity. The suit, with several layers (层), is designed to fight against the terrible conditions of the lunar surface, including extreme temperatures, low gravity, and solar radiation (辐射). The innermost layer is designed for comfort, ensuring that the astronauts remain cool and dry during the mission. This layer is followed by pressure clothing that keeps the correct atmospheric pressure within the suit, in the low-pressure environment of the moon. The outer layer, made of a special material, protects the astronauts from extreme heat and bitter cold, ranging from over 100℃ during the daytime to as low as — 170℃ at night. Despite the several layers and protective equipment, the suit is flexible, enabling the astronauts to move freely. The lunar landing suit is equipped with a range of features that improve the astronauts’ ability to perform tasks on the moon. The suit’s gloves, for example, allow for fine motor skills, making it easier for them to handle tools and equipment. A life support system included in the suit can provide oxygen, regulate temperature, and remove CO₂, which is important to their survival during the mission, as the lunar environment is unfit for human life without proper support. Besides, the suit includes a helmet (头盔) with a visor that provides a clear view while protecting their eyes from dust and radiation. The helmet also has communication systems, allowing them to stay in contact with mission control. Through years of research and development, China’s latest lunar landing suit marks a big breakthrough in space technology, showcasing the nation’s power in space engineering and representing a big technological leap. 12. What is the outer layer of the suit mainly used to do? A. Build up gravity. B. Keep drought. C. Fight against extreme temperatures. D. Prevent the atmospheric pressure. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the suit? A. Its cost and benefits. B. Its design and functions. C. Its history and future. D. Its material and weight. 14. What does the underlined word “leap” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advance. B. Request. C. Error. D. Pressure. 15. What can we conclude from the design of the suit? A. Better late than never. B. All roads lead to Rome. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Necessity is the mother of invention. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国的太空探索计划取得重大成就，计划让宇航员登月并开展研究，其中宇航员所穿的登月服是关键。详细介绍了登月服的结构，包括多层设计及其各自功能，如最内层保证舒适，压力服维持气压，外层抵御极端温度等。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The outer layer, made of a special material, protects the astronauts from extreme heat and bitter cold, ranging from over 100℃ during the daytime to as low as—170℃ at night.(外层由一种特殊材料制成，保护宇航员免受极端高温和严寒的影响，温度范围从白天的100多℃到晚上的170℃。)”可知，宇航服的外层主要用来抵御极端温度。故选C。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“The lunar landing suit is equipped with a range of features that improve the astronauts’ ability to perform tasks on the moon. The suit’s gloves, for example, allow for fine motor skills, making it easier for them to handle tools and equipment. A life support system included in the suit can provide oxygen, regulate temperature, and remove CO₂, which is important to their survival during the mission, as the lunar environment is unfit for human life without proper support. Besides, the suit includes a helmet (头盔) with a visor that provides a clear view while protecting their eyes from dust and radiation. The helmet also has communication systems, allowing them to stay in contact with mission control.(月球着陆服配备了一系列功能，这些功能提高了宇航员在月球上执行任务的能力。例如，宇航服的手套设计能够满足精细动作技能的需求，使他们更容易操作工具和设备。宇航服内还配备了生命维持系统，可以提供氧气、调节温度并清除二氧化碳，这对于宇航员在执行任务期间的生存至关重要，因为在没有适当支持的情况下，月球环境并不适合人类生存。此外，宇航服还包括一个带有面罩的头盔，该面罩在保护宇航员的眼睛免受尘埃和辐射伤害的同时，还能提供清晰的视野。头盔上还装有通信系统，使宇航员能够与任务控制中心保持联系。)”可知，第三段主要介绍了登月服的设计（如手套、头盔等）以及这些设计所具有的功能（如便于操作、保障生存、通信等）。故选B。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Through years of research and development, China’s latest lunar landing suit marks a big breakthrough in space technology, showcasing the nation’s power in space engineering and representing a big technological leap.(经过多年的研究和开发，中国最新的登月服标志着太空技术的重大突破，展示了国家在太空工程方面的实力，并代表了一次重大的技术leap。)”可知，前文提到“重大突破”以及“展示了国家在太空工程方面的实力”。由此推知，划线词“leap”在这里表示技术上的进步、提升，与advance意思接近。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“The suit, with several layers (层), is designed to fight against the terrible conditions of the lunar surface, including extreme temperatures, low gravity, and solar radiation (辐射).(这套有几层的宇航服是为了对抗月球表面的恶劣条件而设计的，包括极端温度、低重力和太阳辐射。)”和第三段“The lunar landing suit is equipped with a range of features that improve the astronauts’ ability to perform tasks on the moon.(登月服配备了一系列功能，可以提高宇航员在月球上执行任务的能力。)”可知，文章中讲述了中国登月服的设计是为了应对月球表面极端温度、低重力、辐射等恶劣的环境条件，以及满足宇航员在月球上执行任务的各种需求（如提供生命支持、方便操作等），正是因为在月球执行任务存在这些实际的需求，才促使了登月服的发明和不断完善。由此推知，D选项“Necessity is the mother of invention.(需要是发明之母)”很好地体现了因为在月球执行任务的实际需要，所以才有了登月服这样的发明。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’re fortunate to have access to a combination of technology and the Internet in the information age.

She was trying to carry several heavy bags to her home, which was not far away. I was determined to help. So I approached her and said, “Mrs Thompson, let me give you a hand with those bags.” She looked relieved and gladly accepted my help, her eyes lighting up with appreciation. “It’s very kind of you, Alice,” she said with a warm smile. “These bags are actually heavy for me to carry alone.” As we walked together towards Mrs Thompson’s house, I started a conversation with her to make the journey more enjoyable. I learned that Mrs Thompson lived alone. Her children lived in another city, and she rarely saw them due to their busy schedules. But luckily, her warm-hearted neighbor, Mr Johnson, often visited and took care of her. It made me feel a sense of compassion (同情). I could sense her loneliness and need for company. Later, I made it a point to regularly stop by Mrs Thompson’s house after school. When I found she was not well, I offered to help her with various chores (杂活), such as cleaning the house, watering the plants, and even cooking simple meals. I would also read to her. She would share stories from her past, recalling her childhood and adventures she had experienced throughout her life. I listened carefully, fascinated by the richness of her experiences and the wisdom she had gained over the years. Our relationship got better with each visit, and she began to look forward to our time together. She tended to await my arrival, and I found comfort in the conversations we shared. 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。 Another weekend, however, when I arrived at Mrs Thompson’s house, I found the door locked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the following days, I became a regular visitor at the hospital. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Another weekend, however, when I arrived at Mrs Thompson’s house, I found the door locked. I knocked on the door, but there was no answer. Then I knocked on Mr Johnson’s door and asked him, “Uncle Johnson, do you know where Mrs Thompson went?” Mr Johnson told me that Mrs Thompson had been sent to the nearest hospital this morning. Seeing my worried face, he suggested that I go to the hospital to visit Mrs Thompson. I hurried there and learned that she had to be in hospital for some time. My heart sank, but I knew I had to be there for her. Over the following days, I became a regular visitor at the hospital. I brought Mrs Thompson her favorite books and magazines, and we spent hours talking and laughing together. She treated me like family and even gave me the key to her house. On the weekend, I asked my classmates to help with her household chores. Slowly, her condition improved, and she was eventually discharged from the hospital. Grateful for my support, she felt a renewed sense of hope and strength. Our friendship further deepened, and I realized that helping others could bring joy and fulfillment to my own life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者偶遇邻居汤普森夫人搬重物困难，施以援手，得知她独居且孩子远居他城后心生同情。此后作者常看望陪伴并帮其做家务，二人关系升温。后来汤普森夫人住院，作者频繁探视，还组织同学帮忙打理家务，最终她康复出院，对作者满怀感激，作者也从助人中收获快乐与满足，友谊得以深化。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，另一个周末，当我到达汤普森夫人家时，我发现门锁着。”可知，第一段可描写作者发现门锁着后询问邻居约翰逊先生发生的事情。 ②由第二段首句内容“在接下来的几天里，我成了这家医院的常客。”可知，第二段可描写作者去医院探望汤普森夫人的过程。 2.续写线索：发现门锁着——询问邻居约翰逊先生——汤普森夫人被送医院——成了这家医院的常客——探望过程——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建议：suggested/ advised ②提高，增强：improved/ enhanced ③.意识到：realized/ be aware of 情绪类 ①.担心的：worried/ concerned ②.快乐：joy /delight 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B In September, a sixth-grade class from a Chinese school began a different journey. Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience. Every Saturday morning, with a parent chosen as the coach to guide them, they laced up their shoes and set off. The first run was a real challenge. After running just several hundred meters, a few students were out of breath. Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly. In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools. Recognizing the potential link between decreased physical activity and health-related problems, various measures have been taken to reduce students’ academic pressure and increase their exercise time, such as reducing the after-school homework burden. The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity. It shows that with devotion and support, even a simple jogging routine can have a great effect on the well-being of young students. 4. Why did the parent association organize the morning jogging program? A. To meet the parents’ requirements. B. To live up to the coach’s expectations. C. To improve the students’ physical and mental health. D. To replace the school’s present physical education classes. 5. What can we learn about the students in the first run? A. Few of them felt energetic. B. Most of them gave up halfway. C. None of them completed the run. D. Not all of them made it to the end. 6. How is the seriousness of being overweight on students showed in paragraph 3? A. Through an unofficial report. B. Through data comparison. C. Through the schools’ prediction. D. Through individual imagination. 7. Which word can best describe the morning program? A. Influential. B. Traditional. C. Global. D. Commercial. C A rare moss (苔藓) called takakia has adapted over hundreds of millions of years to survive the extremes of life on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. And there is a team of researchers who have been studying the moss for nearly ten years. Takakia includes just two species, both of which are found only on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Takakia in this location has been buried under snow for eight months of the year, and it faced strong UV rays when it came from its snowy cover. Takakia has been developing here for over 65 million years, with the habitat increasingly becoming extreme. The researchers record how climate change has greatly changed the moss’ habitat within just a few years. And the team is surprised to find takakia’s shape in 165 million-year-old fossils (化石) , showing that genetic changes affecting the shape developed more than 165 million years ago under wildly different conditions. Despite having hundreds of millions of years to adapt to climate change, the little moss will be ended if the global climate keeps getting warmer. Since they began taking measurements of takakia’s habitat in the early 2010s, the researchers have described an average temperature increase of almost 0.5℃ per year. Meanwhile, the glacier (冰川) near sample sites is melting at an alarming pace-around 50 meters per year. The researchers note that takakia’s populations have become significantly smaller over the study period. During the ten years, the coverage of takakia’s populations decreased by 1.6% every year, faster than that of four local common mosses — a trend they expect to continue. “Our study shows how valuable takakia is in tracing the development of land plants. The population reduction we found is frightening,” a researcher says. “Luckily, knowing that the plant is threatened by extinction also gives us a chance to protect it. For example, we can grow it in the lab,” another researcher says. “Takakia has seen the dinosaurs come and go. It has seen us humans coming. Now we can learn something about adaptive ability and extinction from this moss.” 8. What can be inferred about takakia on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from the text? A. Its habitat is free from snow. B. It has been developing wildly in China. C. It has adapted to extreme conditions for quite a time. D. Its genes have been unchanged for millions of years. 9. What might be the main threat to takakia according to paragraph 3? A. The rise of glacial water. B. Human harvesting. C. The competition with the local mosses. D. Global warming. 10. What is the attitude of the two researchers in the last paragraph to takakia? A. Curious. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Impatient. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The Ancient History of Takakia B. The Unique Adaptive Ability of Takakia C. The Threatened Survival of Takakia D. The Rapidly Increasing Population of Takakia D China’s space exploration program has made a significant achievement in recent years. Besides, the nation plans to land its astronauts on the moon and conduct research. One key aspect of these missions is the lunar landing suit worn by China’s astronauts. China’s lunar landing suit shows the country’s creativity. The suit, with several layers (层), is designed to fight against the terrible conditions of the lunar surface, including extreme temperatures, low gravity, and solar radiation (辐射). The innermost layer is designed for comfort, ensuring that the astronauts remain cool and dry during the mission. This layer is followed by pressure clothing that keeps the correct atmospheric pressure within the suit, in the low-pressure environment of the moon. The outer layer, made of a special material, protects the astronauts from extreme heat and bitter cold, ranging from over 100℃ during the daytime to as low as — 170℃ at night. Despite the several layers and protective equipment, the suit is flexible, enabling the astronauts to move freely. The lunar landing suit is equipped with a range of features that improve the astronauts’ ability to perform tasks on the moon. The suit’s gloves, for example, allow for fine motor skills, making it easier for them to handle tools and equipment. A life support system included in the suit can provide oxygen, regulate temperature, and remove CO₂, which is important to their survival during the mission, as the lunar environment is unfit for human life without proper support.
