Blues Highway Travel along a 1,330-kilometer section of Highway 51 from Nashville, Tennessee, to New Orleans, Louisiana, and explore the birthplace of blues music. The Deep South has a rich cultural history, including homes of famous blues musicians and legendary recording studios. Clarksdale, Mississippi, proudly claims to be where the blues began. In Memphis, you can visit Graceland, once home to Elvis Presley. If there’s any trip that demands its own soundtrack, this is the one. Pacific Coast Highway Running from San Francisco all the way down to San Diego, this spectacular West Coast drive follows the dramatic California coastline. You’ll see steep cliffs, scenic beaches, towering Redwood forests, and maybe even elephant seals on the shore. Stop in charming towns like Santa Cruz and Monterey, or marvel at the wild beauty of Big Sur. The views around each bend are stunning, so be ready for picture-perfect moments. Hāna Highway Featuring over 600 curves, numerous narrow bridges, and high cliffs, this long road on Maui’s eastern coast can be both thrilling and awe-inspiring. Although it can be driven in 6 hours at the average speed of 50 kilometers per hour, many people take a whole day to enjoy the waterfalls, black sand beaches, and fruit stands along the way. The lush rainforests and ocean views make this route a true Hawaiian treasure. Utah Mighty 5 Southern Utah’s five national parks are ideal for days of discovery. From the impressive red rock canyons of Canyonlands to the sandstone towers in Zion, each park offers breathtaking sights. At Arches, you can admire more than 2,000 natural stone arches, some formed millions of years ago. In Bryce Canyon, you’ll see pink cliffs and towering hoodoos, while Capitol Reef features remarkable rock art created by indigenous peoples. Route 66 Often called the “Mother Road,” this historic highway stretches about 3,665 kilometers from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California. It typically takes three weeks to complete the journey, crossing Oklahoma’s plains, Texas’s farmland, and Arizona’s desert mesas before reaching the Golden State. Expect quirky roadside stops, friendly local diners, and a true taste of Americana along the way.21. What is special about the Royal Academy of Arts? 21. How long is the Hāna Highway? A. 3,665 km B. 1,330 km C. 300 km D. 2,000 km 22. Which of the following is TRUE about Route 66? A. It starts in California and ends in Chicago. B. It covers about 84 kilometers in total. C. It passes directly through Big Sur. D. It can generally be finished in about three weeks. 23. What is the best title for this passage? A. Famous Highways in the United States B. Natural Wonders along the Coastline C. A Guide to Stunning Road Trips in the US D. The Longest Roads in North America B At Christmas, it’s often the little things that hold the most meaning, as writer Harriet Minter shares in her piece “Filled with love”. Minter finds that while she’s not fond of others choosing gifts for her, there’s one aspect where she welcomes the gesture — the Christmas stocking.  Each year, Minter writes a Christmas list for her family, but she doesn’t enjoy the surprise of a gift she wouldn’t have chosen herself. However, the Christmas stocking is a different story. Her mother has been filling stockings for her, her sister, and the whole family for decades, and now Minter does the same for her partner. The Christmas stocking is filled with a variety of small items. There are always chocolate coins a pair of tights, and cotton wool pads. Seasonal decorations, a fun game from a cracker, and odds and ends like daily use makeup and self-care products such as shampoo and conditioner miniatures can also be found. There might even be dried herbs or spices and kitchen utensils. Minter views the stocking as more than just a collection of small gifts. It’s a chance for the filler to understand the recipient’s life in detail and make their daily life a bit easier. Buying a woman a piece of jewelry according to her taste is difficult, but choosing ten small items that enhance her daily life shows a true understanding of her. Maybe being truly seen and appreciated through such a simple act is the gift we all secretly hope to receive. 24. Why doesn’t Minter like the surprise of a gift? A. Because the gifts are always too expensive. B. Because the gifts are usually not what she really wants. C. Because she prefers to choose gifts by herself. D. Because she doesn’t like receiving gifts. 25. What can we know about the Christmas stocking from the passage? A. It only contains expensive items. B. Minter started the tradition of filling stockings. C. It is filled with a wide range of small items. D. People don’t value the items in the stocking. 26. What does Minter think is the true meaning of the Christmas stocking? A. It is a way to show off one’s wealth. B. It is a chance to exchange gifts with others. C. It is a collection of various beautiful things. D. It is an expression of understanding and care. 27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Christmas Gifts: Big or Small? B. The Tradition of Christmas Stockings C. Filled with Love: The Magic of Christmas Stockings D. Harriet Minter’s Christmas Lists C Of the many patients who need an organ transplant (器官移植), most never receive one, which often leads to negative outcomes. Meanwhile, around 240 million people live with rare genetic diseases, the majority of which lack effective treatments. Each year, poor diets contribute to millions of premature deaths worldwide. In response to these enormous challenges, CRISPR gene editing offers promising new solutions — and smart regulation can help it succeed. CRISPR works like a molecular (分子的) editor, capable of rewriting DNA to remove harmful mutations or insert protective ones. Using this technology, scientists hope to create pig organs that can safely be transplanted into humans, potentially saving countless lives. CRISPR-based therapies for blood disorders are already in development, and future treatments could address high cholesterol (胆固醇), a leading risk factor for heart disease. Moreover, CRISPR may enhance crop yields, guard plants against climate extremes, and even improve the nutritional quality of everyday foods. However, to draw sustained investment, CRISPR must demonstrate real-world results that win public trust. Since its discovery in 2012, it has begun replacing older gene-modifying methods that failed to fulfill their early promise. Despite this, outdated regulations continue to restrict CRISPR’s potential. Rules designed for large-scale medicines hamper small-batch CRISPR therapies, especially for rare diseases with only a few patients. Although CRISPR can be tailored to target specific mutations (突变), current approval processes remain costly and rigid (苛刻死板的). Gene-edited crops face similar obstacles. In many regions, they are still classified as genetically modified organisms, even though they only tweak a plant’s existing DNA rather than adding foreign genes. Such rigid policies slow agricultural research and limit the technology’s contribution to food security. Ultimately, CRISPR’s success depends on thoughtful, flexible oversight that encourages innovation without neglecting safety. With wise regulation and continued scientific progress, CRISPR could transform medicine and agriculture alike. 28. What is CRISPR’s primary function as described in the passage? A. To supply large amounts of donor organs B. To rewrite DNA by adding or removing specific genes C. To replace outdated regulations on drug development D To prevent genetically modified organisms from spreading 29. According to the passage, what is one key obstacle CRISPR faces when treating rare diseases? A. Unavailability of modern laboratory equipment B. Lack of public interest in new therapies C. Rules designed for large-scale drug development D. High cholesterol rates among certain patients 30. Why are gene-edited crops often treated the same as GMOs in many regions? A. They frequently use foreign genes to boost yields B. They have not been approved for public consumption C. They follow the same commercial strategies as other crops D. They are regulated under outdated or inflexible policies 31. Which statement best summarizes the passage’s main idea? A. CRISPR should be limited to agricultural use only B. CRISPR’s full potential depends on flexible regulation and ongoing innovation C. CRISPR is already widely accepted and faces few obstacles D. CRISPR’s technology is too expensive to develop further D In the book The Sounds of Life, author Karen Bakker explores the fascinating world of how animals sense sound, even those without ears. This exploration reveals the noises that strike fear into the hearts of elephants and explains why bats rely on echolocation. Bakker takes readers on a journey through ten chapters, each focusing on a different organism, from singing whales and dancing honey bees to growing turtles. By introducing readers to the emerging field of digital bio-acoustics (生物声学), she helps us understand the meanings behind the sounds animals make. These sounds have become crucial keys to understanding and conserving species and ecosystems. For instance, the sounds made by bats are far more complex than we once thought. Beyond just the functional aspects, some bat species even have behaviors similar to human ones. Young bats learn “courtship songs” from their fathers, much like human juveniles learning from elders. Meanwhile, real-time listening stations are playing a significant role in reducing the number of ship strikes on the North Atlantic right whale, one of the most endangered marine mammals in North America. Bakker also looks to the future, imagining a time when artificial intelligence - enabled robots could monitor biodiversity in animal worlds through battery - less audio recording networks. Although the book’s vocabulary might be a bit challenging for some, it offers a thought - provoking and rigorous look at our understanding of the animal soundscape. Compared to other books that touch on bioacoustics, The Sounds of Life meticulously researches and connects various aspects of the field, making it accessible to a wide range of readers. It combines elements of animal ecology, science - doing narratives, futurism, and accounts of Indigenous knowledge, presenting a rich and interdisciplinary view. 32. What is the main focus of the book The Sounds of Life? A. The language of different animal species. B. How animals sense and make sounds. C. The relationship between animals and humans. D. The future of artificial intelligence in animal research. 33. Why are the sounds made by animals important according to the passage? A. They can be used to create new languages. B. They help us understand and protect species and ecosystems. C. They show the unique intelligence of each animal. D. They are the only way to study animal behavior. 34. What can we know about the book The Sounds of Life from the passage? A. It only focuses on a few common animals. B. Its vocabulary is too simple for most readers. C. It combines multiple fields of knowledge. D. It has been widely used in animal conservation. 35. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Bats’ sounds are simpler than previously thought. B. Real - time listening stations have no effect on protecting whales. C. The book may inspire readers to think about the animal sound world. D. Artificial intelligence - enabled robots are already widely used in animal monitoring. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to protect your mental health when you’re self-employed(个体创业) Being self-employed can be a double-edged sword. While it offers freedom and flexibility, it can also pose threats to your mental health. Here are some ways to safeguard your emotional well-being in this situation. ____36____ What motivated you to become self-employed?

There was a period of time when I couldn’t be bothered about hair in general, and I didn’t want to spend a fortune on cutting my hair. So, whenever I went home for the weekend, I would just borrow my dad’s shaver (剃须刀) and give myself a really short haircut. One weekend, I decided it was time for my haircut. Unfortunately, I left it until about thirty minutes before I had to catch my train back to school. That would have been fine, except my dad’s shaver chose that exact moment to run out of batteries. So, there I was, with a half-cut head, in a rush to go, or otherwise, I would have missed my train. I decided, anyhow, to put on a hat, onto the train, and off to my dormitory. After getting to my dormitory, my roommates informed me that we would be taking our graduation photos at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, including both group and individual shots. What should I do? I had to walk a long way to find a barbershop in the street. I visited a few barbershops, but they refused me because I didn’t have an appointment (预约). Finally, when I was almost desperate (绝望的), I caught sight of a barbershop. Although there was a guest waiting to be served, I finally decided to go in. I said, “Excuse me, I completely messed up my hair over the weekend. Do you have any drop-in appointments?” The barber replied, “Sorry, we’re fully booked right now. How about Tuesday?” I said, “No. I can’t wait. I need to have my graduation photo at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. And I mustn’t wear the hat to do it.” Hearing this, the barber felt sorry for me. He looked at me, then looked at the hat, and looked back at me. “How bad is it?” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Then I honestly took off my hat to show my half haircut to him. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing my beautiful hair in the mirror, I was very satisfied and touched. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 赤峰二中2024级高一下学期第一次月考 英语试题 （考试时间120分钟，总分150分） 第一部分：听力(共两节，满分 30 分) 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A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。 1. 此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the woman want the man to do?

B 【解析】 【原文】M: A study shows that children who watch videos of eating junk food will eat more. Scientists from the university of Liverpool found those who see their favourite stars online eating unhealthy food in videos eat nearly an extra 100 calories when choosing a snack. Experts say children may find it difficult to tell what is an advertisement and what is the star’s normal behavior. Anna Coates, a PhD research student and leading researcher on the study, said now that we’ve shown that children are influenced by online stars, our next study will look at whether they understand that in many cases stars are being paid to promote products. Another researcher, Oliver, said there are many advertisements for foods that are high in sugar and fat. We should have proper control over what our children see mayor of London Siri Khan suggested banning junk food advertisements at London’s bus stops and subway stations. Mr. Kahn said I plan to do all I can to deal with this issue with the power I have and help Londoners make healthy food choices for themselves and their families. Professor Russell Viner, President of the royal college of child health, added it’s important that children should be protected from the marketing of junk food, not only on TV. But also online, where they are increasingly spending time. 第二部分  阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A These all-American routes offer unforgettable journeys. Blues Highway Travel along a 1,330-kilometer section of Highway 51 from Nashville, Tennessee, to New Orleans, Louisiana, and explore the birthplace of blues music. The Deep South has a rich cultural history, including homes of famous blues musicians and legendary recording studios. Clarksdale, Mississippi, proudly claims to be where the blues began. In Memphis, you can visit Graceland, once home to Elvis Presley. If there’s any trip that demands its own soundtrack, this is the one. Pacific Coast Highway Running from San Francisco all the way down to San Diego, this spectacular West Coast drive follows the dramatic California coastline. You’ll see steep cliffs, scenic beaches, towering Redwood forests, and maybe even elephant seals on the shore. Stop in charming towns like Santa Cruz and Monterey, or marvel at the wild beauty of Big Sur. The views around each bend are stunning, so be ready for picture-perfect moments. Hāna Highway Featuring over 600 curves, numerous narrow bridges, and high cliffs, this long road on Maui’s eastern coast can be both thrilling and awe-inspiring. Although it can be driven in 6 hours at the average speed of 50 kilometers per hour, many people take a whole day to enjoy the waterfalls, black sand beaches, and fruit stands along the way. The lush rainforests and ocean views make this route a true Hawaiian treasure. Utah Mighty 5 Southern Utah’s five national parks are ideal for days of discovery. From the impressive red rock canyons of Canyonlands to the sandstone towers in Zion, each park offers breathtaking sights. At Arches, you can admire more than 2,000 natural stone arches, some formed millions of years ago. In Bryce Canyon, you’ll see pink cliffs and towering hoodoos, while Capitol Reef features remarkable rock art created by indigenous peoples. Route 66 Often called the “Mother Road,” this historic highway stretches about 3,665 kilometers from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California. It typically takes three weeks to complete the journey, crossing Oklahoma’s plains, Texas’s farmland, and Arizona’s desert mesas before reaching the Golden State. Expect quirky roadside stops, friendly local diners, and a true taste of Americana along the way.21. What is special about the Royal Academy of Arts? 21. How long is the Hāna Highway?

Natural Wonders along the Coastline C. A Guide to Stunning Road Trips in the US D. The Longest Roads in North America 【答案】21. C 22. D 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几条美国境内的公路旅行路线。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Hāna Highway”中的“Although it can be driven in 6 hours at the average speed of 50 kilometers per hour, many people take a whole day to enjoy the waterfalls, black sand beaches, and fruit stands along the way.(虽然它可以以每小时50公里的平均速度在6小时内行驶，但许多人会花一整天的时间来欣赏沿途的瀑布、黑色沙滩和水果摊。)”可知，在Hāna Highway行驶需要以每小时50公里的速度行驶6个小时，所以该公路为300公里。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“It typically takes three weeks to complete the journey, crossing Oklahoma’s plains, Texas’s farmland, and Arizona’s desert mesas before reaching the Golden State.(通常需要三周的时间才能完成这段旅程，穿越俄克拉荷马州的平原、德克萨斯州的农田和亚利桑那州的沙漠台地，然后到达金州。)”可知，通常需要三周左右完成在Route 66的行程。故选D。 【23题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“These all-American routes offer unforgettable journeys.(这些全美国路线提供难忘的旅程。)”和下文介绍了几条“Highway(高速公路)”可知，文章主要是提供了在美国的公路旅行路线指南。故选C。 B At Christmas, it’s often the little things that hold the most meaning, as writer Harriet Minter shares in her piece “Filled with love”. Minter finds that while she’s not fond of others choosing gifts for her, there’s one aspect where she welcomes the gesture — the Christmas stocking.  Each year, Minter writes a Christmas list for her family, but she doesn’t enjoy the surprise of a gift she wouldn’t have chosen herself. However, the Christmas stocking is a different story. Her mother has been filling stockings for her, her sister, and the whole family for decades, and now Minter does the same for her partner. The Christmas stocking is filled with a variety of small items. There are always chocolate coins, a pair of tights, and cotton wool pads. Seasonal decorations, a fun game from a cracker, and odds and ends like daily use makeup and self-care products such as shampoo and conditioner miniatures can also be found. There might even be dried herbs or spices and kitchen utensils. Minter views the stocking as more than just a collection of small gifts. It’s a chance for the filler to understand the recipient’s life in detail and make their daily life a bit easier. Buying a woman a piece of jewelry according to her taste is difficult, but choosing ten small items that enhance her daily life shows a true understanding of her. Maybe being truly seen and appreciated through such a simple act is the gift we all secretly hope to receive. 24. Why doesn’t Minter like the surprise of a gift? A. Because the gifts are always too expensive. B. Because the gifts are usually not what she really wants. C. Because she prefers to choose gifts by herself. D. Because she doesn’t like receiving gifts. 25. What can we know about the Christmas stocking from the passage? A. It only contains expensive items. B. Minter started the tradition of filling stockings. C. It is filled with a wide range of small items. D. People don’t value the items in the stocking. 26. What does Minter think is the true meaning of the Christmas stocking? A It is a way to show off one’s wealth. B. It is a chance to exchange gifts with others. C. It is a collection of various beautiful things. D. It is an expression of understanding and care. 27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Christmas Gifts: Big or Small?

There are always chocolate coins, a pair of tights, and cotton wool pads. Seasonal decorations, a fun game from a cracker, and odds and ends like daily use makeup and self-care products such as shampoo and conditioner miniatures can also be found. There might even be dried herbs or spices and kitchen utensils.(圣诞长袜里装满了各种小物品。里面总是有巧克力硬币、一双紧身衣和脱脂棉垫。还可以找到季节性装饰品、来自饼干的有趣游戏，以及像日常使用的化妆品和洗发水、护发素等小型个人护理产品之类的零碎物品。甚至可能有干草药或香料以及厨房用具。)”可知，圣诞长袜里装满了各种各样的小物品。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Minter views the stocking as more than just a collection of small gifts. It’s a chance for the filler to understand the recipient’s life in detail and make their daily life a bit easier. Buying a woman a piece of jewelry according to her taste is difficult, but choosing ten small items that enhance her daily life shows a true understanding of her.(明特认为圣诞长袜不仅仅是小礼物的集合。这是装礼物的人详细了解收礼人的生活并让他们的日常生活更轻松的一个机会。根据一个女人的品味给她买一件珠宝是困难的，但选择十件能改善她日常生活的小物品则体现了对她真正的理解。)”可知，明特认为圣诞长袜是理解和关爱的一种表达。故选D项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段“At Christmas, it’s often the little things that hold the most meaning, as writer Harriet Minter shares in her piece “Filled with love”. Minter finds that while she’s not fond of others choosing gifts for her, there’s one aspect where she welcomes the gesture — the Christmas stocking. (在圣诞节，往往是一些小事承载着最重要的意义，正如作家哈丽雅特・明特在她的作品《充满爱》中所分享的那样。明特发现，尽管她不喜欢别人为她挑选礼物，但在一个方面她乐于接受这种表示——圣诞袜。)”以及下文介绍的内容可知，文章主要讲述了作家哈丽雅特・明特认为圣诞袜里装满了各种各样的小物品，它不仅仅是小礼物的集合，更是一种理解和关爱的表达，圣诞袜充满了爱，所以，标题“充满爱：圣诞袜的魔力”体现了圣诞袜充满爱以及其独特的意义，符合文章主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选C项。 C Of the many patients who need an organ transplant (器官移植), most never receive one, which often leads to negative outcomes. Meanwhile, around 240 million people live with rare genetic diseases, the majority of which lack effective treatments. Each year, poor diets contribute to millions of premature deaths worldwide. In response to these enormous challenges, CRISPR gene editing offers promising new solutions — and smart regulation can help it succeed. CRISPR works like a molecular (分子的) editor, capable of rewriting DNA to remove harmful mutations or insert protective ones. Using this technology, scientists hope to create pig organs that can safely be transplanted into humans, potentially saving countless lives. CRISPR-based therapies for blood disorders are already in development, and future treatments could address high cholesterol (胆固醇), a leading risk factor for heart disease. Moreover, CRISPR may enhance crop yields, guard plants against climate extremes, and even improve the nutritional quality of everyday foods. However, to draw sustained investment, CRISPR must demonstrate real-world results that win public trust. Since its discovery in 2012, it has begun replacing older gene-modifying methods that failed to fulfill their early promise. Despite this, outdated regulations continue to restrict CRISPR’s potential. Rules designed for large-scale medicines hamper small-batch CRISPR therapies, especially for rare diseases with only a few patients. Although CRISPR can be tailored to target specific mutations (突变), current approval processes remain costly and rigid (苛刻死板的). Gene-edited crops face similar obstacles. In many regions, they are still classified as genetically modified organisms, even though they only tweak a plant’s existing DNA rather than adding foreign genes. Such rigid policies slow agricultural research and limit the technology’s contribution to food security. Ultimately, CRISPR’s success depends on thoughtful, flexible oversight that encourages innovation without neglecting safety. With wise regulation and continued scientific progress, CRISPR could transform medicine and agriculture alike. 28. What is CRISPR’s primary function as described in the passage? A. To supply large amounts of donor organs B. To rewrite DNA by adding or removing specific genes C. To replace outdated regulations on drug development D. To prevent genetically modified organisms from spreading 29. According to the passage, what is one key obstacle CRISPR faces when treating rare diseases? A. Unavailability of modern laboratory equipment B. Lack of public interest in new therapies C. Rules designed for large-scale drug development D. High cholesterol rates among certain patients 30. Why are gene-edited crops often treated the same as GMOs in many regions? A. They frequently use foreign genes to boost yields B. They have not been approved for public consumption C. They follow the same commercial strategies as other crops D. They are regulated under outdated or inflexible policies 31. Which statement best summarizes the passage’s main idea? A. CRISPR should be limited to agricultural use only B. CRISPR’s full potential depends on flexible regulation and ongoing innovation C. CRISPR is already widely accepted and faces few obstacles D. CRISPR’s technology is too expensive to develop further 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了CRISPR基因编辑技术的作用，面临的障碍及成功的关键。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“CRISPR works like a molecular (分子的) editor, capable of rewriting DNA to remove harmful mutations or insert protective ones.(CRISPR就像一个分子编辑器，能够重写DNA以去除有害突变或插入保护性突变。)”可知，CRISPR的主要功能是通过添加或去除特定基因来重写 DNA。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Rules designed for large-scale medicines hamper small-batch CRISPR therapies, especially for rare diseases with only a few patients.(为大规模药物设计的规则阻碍了小批量的CRISP疗法，尤其是针对只有少数患者的罕见疾病。)”可知，CRISPR在治疗罕见疾病时面临的一个关键障碍是为大规模药物开发设计的规则。故选C项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Gene-edited crops face similar obstacles. In many regions, they are still classified as genetically modified organisms, even though they only tweak a plant’s existing DNA rather than adding foreign genes. Such rigid policies slow agricultural research and limit the technology’s contribution to food security.(基因编辑作物面临类似的障碍。在许多地区，它们仍然被归类为转基因生物，尽管它们只是调整植物现有的DNA，而不是添加外源基因。这种僵化的政策减缓了农业研究，并限制了该技术对粮食安全的贡献。)”可知，在许多地区，基因编辑作物常被视为与转基因生物相同，是因为它们受过时或不灵活的政策监管。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“In response to these enormous challenges, CRISPR gene editing offers promising new solutions — and smart regulation can help it succeed.(为应对这些巨大挑战，CRISPR基因编辑提供了有前景的新解决方案——明智的监管可以帮助它取得成功。)”和最后一段中的“Ultimately, CRISPR’s success depends on thoughtful, flexible oversight that encourages innovation without neglecting safety. With wise regulation and continued scientific progress, CRISPR could transform medicine and agriculture alike.(最终，CRISPR的成功取决于深思熟虑、灵活的监管，在不忽视安全的情况下鼓励创新。通过明智的监管和持续的科学进步，CRISPR可以改变医学和农业。)”可知，文章主要讲述了CRISPR的全部潜力取决于灵活的监管和持续的创新。故选B项。 D In the book The Sounds of Life, author Karen Bakker explores the fascinating world of how animals sense sound, even those without ears. This exploration reveals the noises that strike fear into the hearts of elephants and explains why bats rely on echolocation. Bakker takes readers on a journey through ten chapters, each focusing on a different organism, from singing whales and dancing honey bees to growing turtles. By introducing readers to the emerging field of digital bio-acoustics (生物声学), she helps us understand the meanings behind the sounds animals make. These sounds have become crucial keys to understanding and conserving species and ecosystems. For instance, the sounds made by bats are far more complex than we once thought. Beyond just the functional aspects, some bat species even have behaviors similar to human ones. Young bats learn “courtship songs” from their fathers, much like human juveniles learning from elders. Meanwhile, real-time listening stations are playing a significant role in reducing the number of ship strikes on the North Atlantic right whale, one of the most endangered marine mammals in North America. Bakker also looks to the future, imagining a time when artificial intelligence - enabled robots could monitor biodiversity in animal worlds through battery - less audio recording networks. Although the book’s vocabulary might be a bit challenging for some, it offers a thought - provoking and rigorous look at our understanding of the animal soundscape. Compared to other books that touch on bioacoustics, The Sounds of Life meticulously researches and connects various aspects of the field, making it accessible to a wide range of readers. It combines elements of animal ecology, science - doing narratives, futurism, and accounts of Indigenous knowledge, presenting a rich and interdisciplinary view. 32. What is the main focus of the book The Sounds of Life? A. The language of different animal species. B. How animals sense and make sounds. C. The relationship between animals and humans. D. The future of artificial intelligence in animal research. 33. Why are the sounds made by animals important according to the passage? A. They can be used to create new languages. B. They help us understand and protect species and ecosystems. C. They show the unique intelligence of each animal. D. They are the only way to study animal behavior. 34. What can we know about the book The Sounds of Life from the passage? A. It only focuses on a few common animals. B. Its vocabulary is too simple for most readers. C. It combines multiple fields of knowledge. D. It has been widely used in animal conservation. 35. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Bats’ sounds are simpler than previously thought. B. Real - time listening stations have no effect on protecting whales. C. The book may inspire readers to think about the animal sound world. D. Artificial intelligence - enabled robots are already widely used in animal monitoring. 【答案】32. B 33. B 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是《生命的声音》一书的内容，探讨动物如何感知和利用声音，并展望未来生物声学的发展。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In the book The Sounds of Life, author Karen Bakker explores the fascinating world of how animals sense sound, even those without ears.(在《生命的声音》这本书中，作者凯伦・巴克探索了动物如何感知声音的迷人世界，甚至包括那些没有耳朵的动物。)”可知，《生命的声音》这本书的主要关注点是动物如何感知和发出声音。故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“By introducing readers to the emerging field of digital bio-acoustics (生物声学), she helps us understand the meanings behind the sounds animals make.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了里德夫人因患有帕金森病，不得不住进社区服务中心，然而陪伴了她十几年的狗虽然在一个热心社工的帮助下逃脱了被安乐死的命运，作者还是认为我们应该认真审视这种状况，允许宠物狗在主人生病后对他的探望和陪伴。 【41题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：“我真的很抱歉，”我说，几乎不敢看她。A. hardly几乎不；B. nearly几乎；C. completely完全地；D. wholly完全地，全部地。根据上文““Please don’t kill him” said Mrs Reid with tears in her eyes.(“请不要杀他，”里德太太含着泪说)”和作者说的“I’m sorry”可知，作者因无法答应里德太太而深感抱歉，因此会在说话时几乎不敢看她。故选A。 42题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：一位护士握住她的手，试图安慰她。A. hug拥抱；B. comfort安慰；C. scold责骂；D. hold抓住。根据上文“said Mrs Reid with tears in her eyes.(里德太太含着泪说)”可知，里德太太非常难过，所以护士握住她的手是要试图安慰她。故选B。 【43题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：“14年来，他一直是我的整个世界，我不知道没有他我该怎么办，”她抽泣着说。A. sobbed抽泣；B. yelled叫喊；C. shouted喊叫；D. complained抱怨。根据上文“said Mrs Reid with tears in her eyes.(里德太太含着泪说)”可知，里德太太在哭泣，所以是抽泣着说话。故选A。 【44题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：里德太太跌倒后住进了医院。A. operation手术；B. effect影响；C. force力量；D. hospital医院。根据上文“A nurse held her hand”和下文的“She had Parkinson’s disease (她患有帕金森氏症)”可知，里德太太因患有帕金森病而跌倒，应该是跌倒后住进了医院。故选D。 【45题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：她患有帕金森氏症，这意味着她的活动能力正在下降。A. mobility活动性，灵活性；B. sense感觉；C. condition条件；D. health健康。根据“Parkinson’s disease”和常识可知，患有帕金森病症的病人活动能力和灵活性都会下降。故选A。 【46题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：很明显，她太虚弱了，不能回家，社工安排她去社区护理中心。A. arranged安排；B. decided决定；C. provided提供；D. charged要价。根据下文“Each year thousands of dogs are put down because their owners go into care homes.(每年都有成千上万只狗被安乐死，因为它们的主人被送进了养老院)”和常识可知，里德太太因患病而无法回家，应该是由社工来安排她住进护理中心，这是社工的工作职责之一。故选A。 【47题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：很明显，她太虚弱了，不能回家，社工安排她去社区护理中心。A. national国家的；B. professional专业的；C. community社区；D. provincial省的。根据上文“It was clear that she was too frail to go home and the social workers”和常识可知，社工一般都是负责社区的服务工作，所以应该是安排里德太太进入了社区护理中心。故选C。 【48题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：里德太太可能再也回不了家了，而且她也没有可以收养他的家人，看来他不得不被安乐死了。A. put up建立；B. put down安乐死，放下；C. put off推迟；D. put out熄灭。根据下文“Each year thousands of dogs are put down because their owners go into care homes.(每年都有成千上万只狗被安乐死，因为它们的主人被送进了养老院)”可知，因里德太太要住进养老院，而无人收养她的小狗，所以小狗可能要被安乐死。故选B。 【49题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这种情况远非个例。A. unique独特的，独一无二的；B. common普通的；C. usual寻常的；D. perfect完美的。根据下文“Each year thousands of dogs are put down because their owners go into care homes.(每年都有成千上万只狗被安乐死，因为它们的主人被送进了养老院)”可知，宠物狗因主人住进养老院而被安乐死的情况每年有成千上万，远非独一无二的个例。故选A。 【50题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：幸好我和一位好心的社工谈了谈，他最终为里德太太找到了一家允许她带着托比的养老院。A. happily高兴地；B. heatedly热情地；C. ultimately最终；D. accidentally意外地。根据下文“But these places are 　12　 and far between.(但这样的地方实在太少了)”可知，这种养老院实在太少了，而在这位社工的努力下，最终找到了一家，所以作者才会非常感谢。故选C。 【51题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：幸好我和一位好心的社工谈了谈，他最终为里德太太找到了一家允许她带着托比的养老院。A. allowed允许；B. recommended推荐；C. forbade禁止；D. caused引起。根据上文“Each year thousands of dogs are put down because their owners go into care homes.(每年都有成千上万只狗被安乐死，因为它们的主人被送进了养老院)”可知，大部分的养老院都不允许养狗，所以这些宠物狗只能被安乐死，而这家养老院应该是允许里德太太带着狗一起生活。故选A。 【52题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但这样的地方实在太少了。A. normal正常的；B. overall总的，全面的；C. few很少的；D. spotted有斑点的。根据上文“Thankfully I spoke to a kindly social worker who 　10　 found a residential home for Mrs Reid that would 　11　 her to take Toby.(幸好我和一位好心的社工谈了谈，他最终为里德太太找到了一家允许她带着托比的养老院)”和本句中“But”可知，找到这样一家养老院并不容易，说明这种地方并不多，few and far between表示“罕见的，稀少的”，符合语境。故选C。 【53题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我认为我们需要认真审视一下这里发生了什么。A. examine调查，审视；B. abandon抛弃；C. leave离开；D. reduce减少。根据上文“But these places are 　12 and far between.(但这样的地方实在太少了)”和下文“It seems profoundly wrong. Imagine the 　14　 after a lengthy hospital stay if it was your own dog that visited.(这似乎大错特错。想象一下，如果在长时间的住院后你的狗来探望你，会有什么好处)”可知，作者认为大部分养老院都不允许养狗的情况似乎是大错特错的，因为养狗实际上是可以给病人带来好处的，所以他认为人们应该要认真思考审视一下实际的情况。故选A。 【54题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：想象一下，如果在长时间的住院后你的狗来探望你，会有什么好处。A. issues问题；B. benefits好处；C. problems问题；D. usages用途。根据下文“We would never consider denying people visits from　 15 , so why is it unacceptable to do this with a dog? (我们从来不会考虑拒绝亲戚来访，那么为什么对狗这样做是不可接受的呢？)”和常识可知，一个人长时间住院，如果有亲朋好友来探望，会使病人心情愉悦，有利于身体健康，那么自己养的宠物狗也可以带来同样的好处。故选B。 【55题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我们从来不会考虑拒绝亲戚来访，那么为什么对狗这样做是不可接受的呢？A. relatives亲戚；B. creatures生物；C. companions同伴；D. soulmates灵魂伴侣。根据上文“Imagine the 　14　after a lengthy hospital stay if it was your own dog that visited.(想象一下，如果在长时间的住院后你的狗来探望你，会有什么好处)”和常识可知，这里是指人们如果长期住院，会欢迎亲朋好友来看望一下自己，会使病人心情愉快，有利于身心健康，所以人们从来不会拒绝亲戚的来访，从而提出了为什么狗这样做就不接受的问题。故选A。 第二节 语法填空 (共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容或括号内所给词的恰当形式填空。 As Chinese users settle into their nightly routine on Xiaohongshu, they are overwhelmed ____56____ a flood of English-language content. Tens of thousands of “TikTok refugees” from the United States ____57____ (arrive) at this Chinese app up to now. “Hello everyone, my name is Ryan. I’m a TikTok refugee. The American government is banning TikTok, so we’re looking for an alternative. We’re very sorry to interrupt you here.” he said in a video ____58____ (post) on Monday, seemingly ____59____ (address) the app’s Chinese users. The video, ____60____ included a Chinese translation read by a robot voice, received over 75,000 ____61____ (like) in one day. As US users tag  themselves  as tiktokrefugees, they are flocking to the Chinese app. The flow of “TikTok refugees” ____62____ (see) as a strong social media protest against the expected ban on TikTok, with the excuse of the so-called “China threat” ____63____ US information security, experts said. Ultimately, the fate of TikTok and the ____64____ (broad) issue of technology regulation will have ____65____ far-reaching implication for the future of the Internet and the relationship between governments and their citizens. 【答案】56. with 57. have arrived 58. posted 59. addressing 60. which 61. likes 62. is seen 63. to 64. broader 65. a 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了大量美国“TikTok难民”涌入小红书，以及背后原因和相关影响。 【56题详解】 考查介词。句意：当中国用户在小红书上开始他们的晚间日常时，他们被大量的英语内容淹没。此处为固定短语be overwhelmed with，意为“被……淹没”，所以使用介词with。故填with。 【57题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：到目前为止，成千上万来自美国的“TikTok难民”已经使用这个中国开发的应用程序。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语up to now（到目前为止）可知，句子时态要用现在完成时，其结构为“have/has + 过去分词”，主语Tens of thousands of“TikTok refugees”是复数，所以用have arrived。故填have arrived。 【58题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我们很抱歉在这里打扰你们。”他在周一发布的一段视频中说道，看起来是在对这款应用的中国用户讲话。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，video与post之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词posted作后置定语修饰video。故填posted。 【59题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我们很抱歉在这里打扰你们。”他在周一发布的一段视频中说道，看起来是在对这款应用的中国用户讲话。此处为非谓语动词作伴随状语，address与其逻辑主语he之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词addressing。故填addressing。 【60题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这段配有机器人语音中文翻译的视频，一天内就获得了超过7.5万个赞。此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词为The video，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which。故填which。 【61题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：同上。like作名词时，意为“赞”，为可数名词，根据空前的over 75,000可知，此处要用复数形式likes。故填likes。 【62题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：专家指出，“TikTok难民”的迁移现象反映出公众对美国政府以所谓“中国威胁”为由封杀TikTok的强烈抵制。此处为谓语动词，The flow of“TikTok refugees”与see之间是被动关系，且句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，所以用一般现在时的被动语态is seen，主语是第三人称单数。故填is seen。 【63题详解】 考查介词。句意：专家指出，“TikTok难民”的迁移现象反映出公众对美国政府以所谓“中国威胁”为由封杀TikTok的强烈抵制。此处为固定搭配threat to，表示“对……的威胁”符合句意，所以使用介词to。故填to。 【64题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：最终，TikTok的命运以及更广泛的技术监管问题，将对互联网的未来以及政府与公民之间的关系产生深远影响。根据语境可知，此处是将 “TikTok 的命运”和“更广泛的技术监管问题”进行对比，所以要用形容词broad的比较级broader作定语。故填broader。 【65题详解】 考查冠词。句意：同上。implication意为 “影响”，为可数名词单数，此处表示泛指“一种深远的影响”，泛指，且far-reaching是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 66. 假定你是李华，为了发展中华优秀传统文化，你校将举办以“我心中的那个词语（That word in my heart）”为主题的演讲比赛，你打算参加，并且想在比赛中分享“日新（constant renewal）”这个词语。日新，可以理解为天天更新。每天都会有不同的进步，每一步走的路都不会白走。请写一篇参赛演讲稿，内容包括： 1. “日新”一词的含义； 2. “日新”在你生活中的体现； 3. “日新”的重要性。 注意： 1. 词数80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Ladies and gentlemen, Good evening!

There was a period of time when I couldn’t be bothered about hair in general, and I didn’t want to spend a fortune on cutting my hair. So, whenever I went home for the weekend, I would just borrow my dad’s shaver (剃须刀) and give myself a really short haircut. One weekend, I decided it was time for my haircut. Unfortunately, I left it until about thirty minutes before I had to catch my train back to school. That would have been fine, except my dad’s shaver chose that exact moment to run out of batteries. So, there I was, with a half-cut head, in a rush to go, or otherwise, I would have missed my train. I decided, anyhow, to put on a hat, onto the train, and off to my dormitory. After getting to my dormitory, my roommates informed me that we would be taking our graduation photos at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, including both group and individual shots. What should I do? I had to walk a long way to find a barbershop in the street. I visited a few barbershops, but they refused me because I didn’t have an appointment (预约). Finally, when I was almost desperate (绝望的), I caught sight of a barbershop. Although there was a guest waiting to be served, I finally decided to go in. I said, “Excuse me, I completely messed up my hair over the weekend. Do you have any drop-in appointments?” The barber replied, “Sorry, we’re fully booked right now. How about Tuesday?” I said, “No. I can’t wait. I need to have my graduation photo at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. And I mustn’t wear the hat to do it.” Hearing this, the barber felt sorry for me. He looked at me, then looked at the hat, and looked back at me. “How bad is it?” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Then I honestly took off my hat to show my half haircut to him. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing my beautiful hair in the mirror, I was very satisfied and touched. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then I honestly took off my hat to show my half haircut to him. Seeing this, both the barber and the guest waiting for him to serve laughed. But then the barber’s eyes softened with sympathy. With the guest’s permission to serve me first, he said, “Let’s see what we can do.” He gestured for me to take a seat and quickly got to work, carefully cutting and styling my hair with skilled hands. As the minutes ticked by, I could feel the tension in my shoulders easing, replaced by a growing sense of relief. Seeing my beautiful hair in the mirror, I was very satisfied and touched. The barber had transformed my messy attempt into a neat and stylish cut that suited me perfectly. “There you go,” he said with a smile, “all set for your graduation photos.” I expressed my heartfelt gratitude to him and the guest. The next morning, when I took the graduation photo with my classmates confidently, I realized that their act of kindness not only saved my graduation photos but also taught me a valuable lesson about the importance of compassion and going the extra mile for others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以剪发为线索展开，主要讲述了作者在高中时经济拮据，周日在家剪发遇电池没电，次日要拍毕业照，却遭到多家理发店拒绝。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后我诚实地摘下帽子，向他展示我剪了一半的头发。”可知，第一段可描写理发师和等待的顾客看到作者头发后的反应，以及理发师决定帮助作者的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“看着镜子里我漂亮的头发，我非常满意和感动。”可知，第二段可描写作者对理发师的感谢，以及第二天拍毕业照时的感受，还有从这件事中所获得的感悟。 2.续写线索：展示头发——理发师和顾客反应——理发师决定帮忙——剪发完成——表达感谢——毕业照及感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①把……变成：transform...into/turn...into ②表达：express/convey ③示意：gesture/signal 情绪类 ①紧张：tension/nervousness ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Seeing this, both the barber and the guest waiting for him to serve laughed. (运用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】The next morning, when I took the graduation photo with my classmates confidently, I realized that their act of kindness not only saved my graduation photos but also taught me a valuable lesson about the importance of compassion and going the extra mile for others.
