With 60,000 spectators gathering to see the ball drop, if being one of them is on your bucket list, be forewarned: There are no bathrooms, and to get a good view, you’ll likely need to snag your spot (and start holding it) around 3 p.m. ANOTHER American New Year’s tradition: watching college football with four big bowl games over the holiday. Rose Bowls, on Jan.1, is preceded by the Rose Parade, with some 50 floats adorned with ILLUSTRATION BY flowers. NEW YEAR’S Eve in Scotland is known as Hogmanay. It starts with a parade through Edinburgh on Dec. 30, followed by a housecleaning known as the Redding. Then during “first footing,” friends and family visit each other after mid-night to become the first to set foot in each other’s homes in the new year. THE SCOTTISH song “Auld Lang Syne” is sung throughout the English-speaking world. Its title translates to “ old long since” and the opening line is “Should auld acquaintance be”... though revelers belt out this wrong lyric every year . IT’S CONSIDERED good luck in Spanish-speaking nations to eat 12 grapes or raisins at midnight — one with each clock chime — on Jan. 1. Germans go for marzipan shaped like pigs , thanks to the phrase “schwein gehabt” (literally, “having a pig”), which means having good luck. 1. Those who want to experience the New Year Countdown on Times Square in New York City are reminded to ________. A. beware of a falling ball from above B. not to use the bathrooms there C. Not to be lost in the large crowds D. D. occupy a position well in advance 2. Which country associate good luck with pigs? A. Estonia. B. Spain. C. Germany. D. France. 3. Which is a tradition of Scotland to celebrate the New Year? A. Visiting a friend as early as possible after midnight. B. Singing a classic song throughout with wrong lyrics. C. Holding a parade with floats decorated with flowers. D. Eating 12 grapes at the very beginning of the new year. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了世界各地的新年传统。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“MOST OF us spend the final seconds of calendar years watching a geodesic sphere descend over Times Square in New York City. With 60,000 spectators gathering to see the ball drop, if being one of them is on your bucket list, be forewarned: There are no bathrooms, and to get a good view, you’ll likely need to snag your spot (and start holding it) around 3 p.m. (在历年的最后几秒钟，我们大多数人都会看着一个测地线球在纽约时代广场上空落下。有6万名观众聚集在一起观看水晶球降落，如果成为其中一员在你的愿望清单上，预先提醒你：那里没有洗手间，而且为了能有好的视野，你可能需要在下午3点左右就抢占并守住你的位置。)”可知，那些想在纽约时代广场体验新年倒计时的人被提醒要提前占好位置。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Germans go for marzipan shaped like pigs, thanks to the phrase “schwein gehabt” (literally, “having a pig”), which means having good luck. (德国人喜欢吃形状像猪的杏仁蛋白糖，这是因为短语“schwein gehabt” (字面意思是“拥有一头猪”)，意思是好运。)”可知，德国将好运与猪联系在一起。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“NEW YEAR’S Eve in Scotland is known as Hogmanay. It starts with a parade through Edinburgh on Dec. 30, followed by a housecleaning known as the Redding. Then during “first footing,” friends and family visit each other after midnight to become the first to set foot in each other’s homes in the new year. (在苏格兰，新年前夜被称为Hogmanay。首先是12月30日在爱丁堡举行的游行，然后是被称为“雷丁”的大扫除。然后在“初访”期间，朋友和家人会在午夜过后互相拜访，成为新的一年里第一个踏入彼此家门的人。)”可知，在午夜过后尽早去拜访朋友是苏格兰庆祝新年的一个传统。故选A项。 B Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else. This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly. Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely. But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food? We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping. The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. 4. Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip? A. He didn’t like soy sauce. B. He preferred to travel light. C. He couldn’t afford a better meal. D. He enjoyed simple outdoor meals. 5. What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean? A Tired. B. Starving. C. Fulfilled. D. Refreshed. 6. What does the author think of camping? A. It is a test of adaptability. B. It is a chance to enjoy good food. C. It is a reminder of the good life he has. D. It is a bonding experience for his family. 7. What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph? A. Some people lack the basic necessities of life. B. Some people fail to appreciate what they have. C. People easily forget the beauty of simple things. D. People easily quit camping due to its discomfort. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述作者朋友旅行只带米饭以及家人露营的经历，阐述了露营时食物美味的原因，还引发了对生活的思考。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. ‘I don’t need it,’ he said flatly. (这并不是因为他尽量轻装上阵，也不是因为他身无分文。他不是。我试图说服他至少在米饭上加点酱油。但不行，贾里德根本不同意。“我不需要，”他直截了当地说)”可知，贾里德坚持只吃米饭，不是因为他尽量轻装上阵，不是因为他没钱吃不起更好的饭菜，文中也没有明确表示他不喜欢酱油，所以，他只吃米饭是因为他喜欢简单的户外餐食。故选D项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在部分“When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. (当你在山里徒步、爬山或野外滑雪消耗了一天的卡路里后感到ravenous时，食物尝起来是多么美味啊！我知道你在想什么；俗话说，饥饿是最好的调味品)”中“after a day of burning off calories”和“hunger is the best sauce”可推知，经过一天的卡路里消耗后，会感到饥饿，食物会变得美味。故“ravenous”的意思是“饥饿的”，与B项“Starving”同义。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. (我真正想说的是，当我在露营时，食物的味道很大程度上是如此的好，因为我想起了一些在家里很容易忘记的东西，在家里我可以简单地去橱柜或超市，买到我喜欢的任何东西。当你在露营时，生活只剩下最基本的东西，我想起我们大多数人都是多么幸运，能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱)”可知，作者认为露营能让他想起在家里很容易忘记的东西，想起自己所拥有的美好生活。故选C项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. (当你在露营时，生活只剩下最基本的东西，我想起我们大多数人都是多么幸运，能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱。更重要的是，我想起了可悲的、事实上不可原谅的是，并非所有人都如此。我想起作为一个社会，我们应该为他们做得更好)”可知，作者想到并非所有人都能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱，作者因为想到一些人缺乏基本生活必需品而感到难过。故选A项。 C Surgeons often emphasize that in the event of a heart attack, time is crucial for saving heart muscle. The heart relies on a continuous supply of oxygen delivered by the heart’s blood vessels (血管). When these vessels become blocked, the oxygen supply stops, and the heart's muscle cells begin to die within minutes. Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. However, within the next five years, there could be a new alternative — to grow live, beating “heart patches” (补丁). Sinha, along with a team of biologists at the University of Cambridge’s Stem Cell Institute, is working on this innovative approach. These heart patches are tiny, beating pieces of heart muscle. They are grown in lab dishes over a month. The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body. Sinha is currently preparing to test these patches, first in mice and then in pigs. If successful, he hopes to set up a human trial within five years. In the United States, scientists from Stanford University are also working on creating heart patches. They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections. Based on the shape of the section, a custom heart patch would be 3D printed to fit perfectly. Surgeons would then open the chest area and attach the patch directly to the heart. The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony. Additionally, the cost of developing and using these patches is significant, which could impact accessibility. However, if these challenges can be overcome, Sinha is optimistic that heart patches could transform the lives of millions worldwide. 8. What is the function of paragraph I? A. To reveal a finding. B. To offer a solution. C. To present a problem. D. To outline a research. 9. What is the first step in growing heart patches? A. Launching a clinical trial in humans. B. Testing the heart patches on animals. C. Culturing heart patches in lab dishes. D. Generating stem cells from blood cells. 10. What is the purpose of using ultrasound and MRI scans? A. To create a 3D model of the heart. B. To locate damaged areas in the heart. C. To design the shape of the custom heart. D. To provide real-time guidance for operations. 11. What is the major challenge in employing heart patches? A. Promoting global accessibility. B. Reducing production costs. C. Securing functional integration. D. Finding a suitable material. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了关于治疗心脏病的一种新方法——培育“心脏补丁”的研究进展。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“ Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.(心脏病发作的幸存者经常遭受永久性心力衰竭，一项令人担忧的统计数据显示，其中50%的人可能活不过5年。剑桥阿登布鲁克医院的心脏病专家桑杰·辛哈解释说：“最终，他们的心脏变得非常虚弱，无法维持足够的血液流动，最终停止跳动。”)”可知，本段通过数据揭示了当前心脏病治疗后的严峻问题，为后文介绍“心脏补丁”解决方案做铺垫。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body.(这个过程首先是将血液细胞重新编程为一种特定类型的干细胞，这种干细胞能够在人体内发育成任何类型的细胞)”可知，培育心脏补丁的第一步是从血细胞中生成干细胞。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections.(他们设想了一种未来的程序，利用超声波和核磁共振扫描来识别受损部位)”可知，使用超声波和核磁共振扫描的目的是定位心脏受损部位。故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony.(这种方法的主要挑战是在新的贴片和现有心脏之间建立“电连接”，以确保它们和谐地跳动)”可知，使用心脏贴片的主要挑战是确保补丁与原有心脏的电信号同步，即功能整合。故选C项。 D Some people think they are immune to ads. They might not have heard of the mere exposure effect — a psychological phenomenon where we tend to like things the more we are exposed to them. When we plot the mere exposure effect on a graph with preferences on one axis (轴) and repetitions on the other, we will see that it takes about 15 repeats for the effect to reach its full potential. If the exposure is too excessive (过度), people get annoyed. And if they didn’t like the thing initially, repeating it can make it worse. There are two main explanations for the phenomenon. The first is certainty. Our minds naturally learn to be careful around new things that could potentially harm us. If we see something repeatedly without bad consequences, we are led to believe it is safe. The second is perceptual (知觉的) fluency. We are also hardwired to prefer simple things that take little mental load. Difficult tasks like figuring out something new take lots of attention and time, which is why we try to avoid them. Known for discovering the effect was psychologist Robert Zajonc, who tested how subjects responded to specific symbols. A group of people were shown a series of random shapes which changed so quickly that it was impossible to notice that some were repeated. When the subjects were asked which shapes they found most pleasing, they chose those to which they had been exposed the most often, even though they had no conscious awareness of that. The results showed that changes in preferences caused by repeated exposures depend not on any prior subjective and conscious evaluations of the stimulus but rather on results from the objective history of exposures alone. Now tell us what you think about ads. If mere exposure to them makes us like things we otherwise wouldn’t, should billboards (广告牌) be banned from the public area? 12. Which of the following graphs best illustrates the mere exposure effect? A. B. C. D. 13. According to Zajonc’s experiment, what drives changes in preferences? A. Random variation. B. Objective analysis. C. Subjective judgment. D. Subconscious familiarity. 14. Which activity shows the application of the mere exposure effect? A. A novelist organizes a book signing event. B. A game studio develops a challenging mode. C. A singer buys hot recommendations on a music app. D. A fashion brand reintroduces certain classic designs. 15. Why does the author mention ads at the end of the text? A. To criticize fake advertising. B. To oppose outdoor advertising. C. To point out the drawbacks of ads. D. To caution against the influence of ads. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍单纯曝光效应，包括其原理、实验验证及在广告中的体现，最后提醒警惕广告影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“When we plot the mere exposure effect on a graph with preferences on one axis (轴) and repetitions on the other, we will see that it takes about 15 repeats for the effect to reach its full potential. If the exposure is too excessive (过度) , people get annoyed. And if they didn't like the thing initially, repeating it can make it worse.(当我们在一个以偏好为一个轴，重复次数为另一个轴的图表上绘制单纯曝光效应时，我们会看到大约需要重复15次这种效应才能充分发挥作用。如果曝光过于频繁，人们会感到厌烦。而且如果他们一开始就不喜欢某样东西，不断重复它会让情况变得更糟。)”可知，一开始随着重复次数增加，偏好会上升，到大约15次达到最大，之后过度曝光偏好会下降；而讨厌的情况下，不断重复它会让情况变得更糟。A 图符合这一变化趋势。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A group of people were shown a series of random shapes which changed so quickly that it was impossible to notice that some were repeated. When the subjects were asked which shapes they found most pleasing, they chose those to which they had been exposed the most often, even though they had no conscious awareness of that.(向一群人展示了一系列随机的形状，这些形状变化得非常快，以至于人们不可能注意到有些形状是重复的。当受试者被问及他们最喜欢哪些形状时，他们选择了那些他们接触最频繁的形状，尽管他们没有意识到这一点。)”以及第五段“The results showed that changes in preferences caused by repeated exposures depend not on any prior subjective and conscious evaluations of the stimulus but rather on results from the objective history of exposures alone.(结果表明，由重复曝光引起的偏好变化并不取决于对刺激的任何先前的主观和有意识的评估，而仅仅取决于客观的曝光历史结果。)”可知，是潜意识里的熟悉度驱动了偏好的变化，而不是随机变化、客观分析或主观判断。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“They might not have heard of the mere exposure effect—a psychological phenomenon where we tend to like things the more we are exposed to them.(他们可能没有听说过纯粹的暴露效应，这是一种心理现象，我们接触的东西越多，就越喜欢。)”可知，单纯曝光效应是指我们接触某事物越多就越倾向于喜欢它。所以C选项A singer buys hot recommendations on a music app.(一位歌手在音乐应用程序上购买热门推荐)，通过在应用程序上不断地让用户看到推荐，也就是增加曝光次数，利用了单纯曝光效应让用户可能喜欢上歌手的歌曲。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Now tell us what you think about ads. If mere exposure to them makes us like things we otherwise wouldn't, should billboards (广告牌) be banned from the public area?(现在告诉我们你对广告的看法。如果仅仅是接触广告就能让我们喜欢上我们原本不会喜欢的东西，那么广告牌是否应该被禁止出现在公共区域呢？)”可知，作者提出这样的疑问，是在提醒人们要警惕广告仅仅通过曝光就对我们产生的影响，而不是批评虚假广告、反对户外广告或者指出广告的缺点。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。 Travelers often fill their suitcases with souvenirs like refrigerator magnets, keychains and postcards. ___16___ Now, those visiting the Italian lakeside town of Como have another, slightly less conventional item to bring home: a sealed can of Lake Como air. ItalyComunica, a communications company, is selling 13.5-ounce cans of “pure air from the most beautiful lake in the world” for roughly $11 (€9.90) each. ___17___ They feature a dark blue label with an illustration of a boat cruising through the water. “Open it whenever you need a moment of escape, tranquility, or simply beauty,” instructs the website. “Only those who visit Lake Como can want to buy our souvenir; memories are not bought but lived.” Sitting at the base of the Alps, Lake Como is a large body of water in Italy’s northern Lombardy region. ___18___ Many celebrities own second homes in the surrounding area, and numerous movies have been filmed there. ___19___ Clever businesspeople have been selling similar products for decades. In mountain towns and other high-elevation destinations, “oxygen in a can” is sometimes marketed as an antidote (缓解物) to altitude sickness, despite little scientific evidence to support that claim. Any benefits from canned air are likely due to the placebo (安慰剂) effect, experts say. Alessandro Rapinese, the mayor of Como, says that he would rather vacationers bought silk scarves, which the region is known for, or other souvenirs. However, he adds: “___20___ Just make sure to take beautiful memories of this area as well.” A. It’s the best souvenir option. B. It has become a popular vacation destination. C. Souvenirs have a long and fascinating history. D. These little items serve as reminders of their vacation. E. If someone wants to take some air home, that’s perfectly fine. F. The cans are marketed as “luxurious” souvenirs on the product website. G. This is not the first time canned air has been marketed to tourists, though. 【答案】16. D 17. F 18. B 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了意大利科莫湖边小镇售卖罐装科莫湖空气作为纪念品的情况，还提到了其他类似罐装空气的产品以及科莫市市长对此的看法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Travelers often fill their suitcases with souvenirs like refrigerator magnets, keychains and postcards.( 旅行者通常会在行李箱里塞满纪念品，比如冰箱贴、钥匙链和明信片。)” 可知，旅行者常带冰箱贴、钥匙链和明信片等纪念品，D选项These little items serve as reminders of their vacation.( 这些小物件能让他们想起自己的假期。)进一步说明了这些纪念品的作用，承接上文。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“ItalyComunica, a communications company, is selling 13.5-ounce cans of “pure air from the most beautiful lake in the world” for roughly $11 (€9.90) each.( 通讯公司ItalyComunica正在出售一罐13.5盎司的“来自世界上最美丽湖泊的纯净空气”，每罐售价约为11美元（9.90欧元）。)”以及下文“They feature a dark blue label with an illustration of a boat cruising through the water. “Open it whenever you need a moment of escape, tranquility, or simply beauty,” instructs the website.( 它们有一个深蓝色的标签，上面有一艘船在水中巡航的插图。网站上写道：“当你需要逃离、宁静或单纯的美丽时，就打开它。”)”可知，这里是在介绍这种罐装空气作为纪念品的营销方式，F选项The cans are marketed as “luxurious” souvenirs on the product website.( 这些罐子在产品网站上被当作“奢华”的纪念品来营销。)起到上下文的承上启下作用，符合语境。故选F项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Sitting at the base of the Alps, Lake Como is a large body of water in Italy’s northern Lombardy region.( 科莫湖位于阿尔卑斯山的山脚下，是意大利北部伦巴第地区的一大片水域。)” 以及下文“Many celebrities own second homes in the surrounding area, and numerous movies have been filmed there.( 许多名人在附近地区拥有第二套住宅，许多电影都在那里拍摄。)”可知，科莫湖的地理位置以及很多名人在周边有第二居所且很多电影在此拍摄，说明它是一个受欢迎的度假胜地，B选项It has become a popular vacation destination.( 它已成为一个受欢迎的度假胜地。)起到上下文的承上启下作用，符合文意。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据下文“Clever businesspeople have been selling similar products for decades. In mountain towns and other high-elevation destinations, “oxygen in a can” is sometimes marketed as an antidote (缓解物) to altitude sickness, despite little scientific evidence to support that claim.( 聪明的商人几十年来一直在销售类似的产品。在山区城镇和其他高海拔地区，“罐装氧气”有时被推销为治疗高原反应的解药，尽管几乎没有科学证据支持这种说法。)”可知，这里是说售卖罐装空气不是第一次了，之前就有类似产品，G选项This is not the first time canned air has been marketed to tourists, though.( 不过，这并不是罐装空气第一次被推销给游客。)符合语境，下文是对空格处内容的语意递进。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Alessandro Rapinese, the mayor of Como, says that he would rather vacationers bought silk scarves, which the region is known for, or other souvenirs. However, he adds:( 科莫市长亚历山德罗•拉皮内斯（Alessandro Rapinese）表示，他宁愿度假者买丝巾或其他纪念品，因为该地区以丝巾闻名。然而，他补充道：)”可知，市长更希望游客买当地有名的丝巾或其他纪念品，但他也有补充说明，E选项If someone wants to take some air home, that’s perfectly fine.( 如果有人想带一些空气回家，那也完全没问题。)符合市长的态度，传达了他接受空气这一选择的立场。故选E项。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On a fall day, my wife and I went boating on the Blackfoot River.

He loved food, but at school, he often found himself the target of cruel jokes and teasing. His classmates would call him names like “Big Tim” and make fun of his size, and though Tim tried to ignore it, it still hurt. Every day, he wished he could be like the athletic kids, running fast and playing sports with ease, but that always seemed out of reach. One day, a group of his classmates — three boys who were notorious for their pranks (恶作剧) — decided to play a trick on him. They knew Tim wasn’t athletic, and they thought it would be funny to sign him up for the upcoming school’s long-distance race. They figured he’d panic when he found out and that it would be fun to watch him fail. Without telling Tim, they registered his name for the race. On race day, as Tim walked across the track trying to join his classmates in the stands, he saw some of them holding giant posters of his face with slogans like “The Big Runner” and “Go Tim!” He froze. He realized what had happened — the boys had tricked him into racing. His face turned red with embarrassment, but the crowd was already watching, and he felt trapped. The starting gun fired, and to everyone’s surprise, Tim began to jog. It wasn’t fast, and he could barely keep up with the other runners, but he kept moving. His legs burned with each step, and his breath came in sharp gasps, but he didn’t stop. His classmates’ laughter echoed in his ears, but he ignored it. As the race went on, something shifted. A few students who weren’t part of the prank started cheering for him. “Come on, Tim! You can do it!” they yelled. Their encouragement made Tim feel lighter, and his pace picked up just a little. It wasn’t about winning anymore; it was about proving to himself that he could finish. 注意： 1. 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。 By the time Tim reached the final lap, he was tired out. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The crowd erupted in applause. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: By the time Tim reached the final lap, he was tired out. His legs felt like lead, and his chest tightened with every breath. Pain seared through him, but he pressed through, eyes fixed on the finish line. The crowd, now cheering for him, seemed to lift his spirits. With a final burst of energy, Tim propelled his legs forward, ignoring the burning in his muscles. As he crossed the finish line, his legs buckled beneath him, and he collapsed onto the grass, gasping for air. But a huge smile spread across his face — he had made it. Against all odds, he had finished. The crowd erupted in applause. His classmates, who had once mocked him, were now standing and clapping and shouting his name. The boys who had set up the prank walked over, looking guilty. “We’re sorry, Tim,” one of them said. “You were amazing. ” Tim smiled, his breath still coming in short bursts. “Thanks,” he said. Winning didn’t matter. He’d finished, exceeding his own expectations. The teasing ceased. He’d shown strength isn’t in size, but in heart. He’d proven he could achieve more than anyone thought. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物蒂姆为线索展开，讲述了因体重问题常遭同学嘲笑的蒂姆，被恶作剧报名长跑比赛，比赛中他虽疲惫但坚持，最终完成比赛并让嘲笑者改观的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “当蒂姆到达最后一圈时，他已经筋疲力尽了。”可知，第一段可描写蒂姆在极度疲惫的状态下，凭借着自己的意志和观众的鼓励，坚持跑到终点的过程以及到达终点后的状态。 ②由第二段首句内容 “人群中爆发出了掌声。”可知，第二段可描写同学们对蒂姆的态度转变，曾经恶作剧的同学道歉，蒂姆对这一切的感受，以及这次经历对他和同学们产生的影响。 2. 续写线索：疲惫坚持——到达终点——人群鼓掌——同学道歉——蒂姆感悟——改变看法 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓掌：clap/applaud ②嘲笑：mock/laugh at ③停止：cease/stop/quit 情绪类 ①微笑：Tim smiled/smile spread across Tim’s face/Tim’s face lit up with a smile ②有负罪感的：guilty/ashamed 【点睛】【高分句型1】Pain seared through him, but he pressed through, eyes fixed on the finish line.(运用了独立主格结构) 【高分句型2】The boys who had set up the prank walked over, looking guilty.(运用了关系代词who引导的定语从句和现在分词作状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 泰安一中2024—2025学年第二学期期中检测 高一英语试题 （试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。 1.Where does the conversation probably take place?

With 60,000 spectators gathering to see the ball drop, if being one of them is on your bucket list, be forewarned: There are no bathrooms, and to get a good view, you’ll likely need to snag your spot (and start holding it) around 3 p.m. ANOTHER American New Year’s tradition: watching college football with four big bowl games over the holiday. Rose Bowls, on Jan.1, is preceded by the Rose Parade, with some 50 floats adorned with ILLUSTRATION BY flowers. NEW YEAR’S Eve in Scotland is known as Hogmanay. It starts with a parade through Edinburgh on Dec. 30, followed by a housecleaning known as the Redding. Then during “first footing,” friends and family visit each other after mid-night to become the first to set foot in each other’s homes in the new year. THE SCOTTISH song “Auld Lang Syne” is sung throughout the English-speaking world. Its title translates to “ old long since” and the opening line is “Should auld acquaintance be”... though revelers belt out this wrong lyric every year . IT’S CONSIDERED good luck in Spanish-speaking nations to eat 12 grapes or raisins at midnight — one with each clock chime — on Jan. 1. Germans go for marzipan shaped like pigs , thanks to the phrase “schwein gehabt” (literally, “having a pig”), which means having good luck. 1. Those who want to experience the New Year Countdown on Times Square in New York City are reminded to ________. A. beware of a falling ball from above B. not to use the bathrooms there C. Not to be lost in the large crowds D. D. occupy a position well in advance 2. Which country associate good luck with pigs? A. Estonia. B. Spain. C. Germany. D. France. 3. Which is a tradition of Scotland to celebrate the New Year? A Visiting a friend as early as possible after midnight. B. Singing a classic song throughout with wrong lyrics. C. Holding a parade with floats decorated with flowers. D. Eating 12 grapes at the very beginning of the new year. B Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else. This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly. Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely. But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food? We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping. The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. 4. Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip? A. He didn’t like soy sauce. B. He preferred to travel light. C. He couldn’t afford a better meal. D. He enjoyed simple outdoor meals. 5. What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean? A. Tired. B. Starving. C. Fulfilled. D. Refreshed. 6. What does the author think of camping? A. It is a test of adaptability. B. It is a chance to enjoy good food. C. It is a reminder of the good life he has. D. It is a bonding experience for his family. 7. What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph? A. Some people lack the basic necessities of life. B. Some people fail to appreciate what they have. C. People easily forget the beauty of simple things. D. People easily quit camping due to its discomfort. C Surgeons often emphasize that in the event of a heart attack, time is crucial for saving heart muscle. The heart relies on a continuous supply of oxygen delivered by the heart’s blood vessels (血管). When these vessels become blocked, the oxygen supply stops, and the heart's muscle cells begin to die within minutes. Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. However, within the next five years, there could be a new alternative — to grow live, beating “heart patches” (补丁). Sinha, along with a team of biologists at the University of Cambridge’s Stem Cell Institute, is working on this innovative approach. These heart patches are tiny, beating pieces of heart muscle. They are grown in lab dishes over a month. The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body. Sinha is currently preparing to test these patches, first in mice and then in pigs. If successful, he hopes to set up a human trial within five years. In the United States, scientists from Stanford University are also working on creating heart patches. They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections. Based on the shape of the section, a custom heart patch would be 3D printed to fit perfectly. Surgeons would then open the chest area and attach the patch directly to the heart. The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony. Additionally, the cost of developing and using these patches is significant, which could impact accessibility.

D Some people think they are immune to ads. They might not have heard of the mere exposure effect — a psychological phenomenon where we tend to like things the more we are exposed to them. When we plot the mere exposure effect on a graph with preferences on one axis (轴) and repetitions on the other, we will see that it takes about 15 repeats for the effect to reach its full potential. If the exposure is too excessive (过度), people get annoyed. And if they didn’t like the thing initially, repeating it can make it worse. There are two main explanations for the phenomenon. The first is certainty. Our minds naturally learn to be careful around new things that could potentially harm us. If we see something repeatedly without bad consequences, we are led to believe it is safe. The second is perceptual (知觉的) fluency. We are also hardwired to prefer simple things that take little mental load. Difficult tasks like figuring out something new take lots of attention and time, which is why we try to avoid them. Known for discovering the effect was psychologist Robert Zajonc, who tested how subjects responded to specific symbols. A group of people were shown a series of random shapes which changed so quickly that it was impossible to notice that some were repeated. When the subjects were asked which shapes they found most pleasing, they chose those to which they had been exposed the most often, even though they had no conscious awareness of that. The results showed that changes in preferences caused by repeated exposures depend not on any prior subjective and conscious evaluations of the stimulus but rather on results from the objective history of exposures alone. Now tell us what you think about ads. If mere exposure to them makes us like things we otherwise wouldn’t, should billboards (广告牌) be banned from the public area? 12. Which of the following graphs best illustrates the mere exposure effect? A. B. C. D. 13. According to Zajonc’s experiment, what drives changes in preferences? A. Random variation. B. Objective analysis. C. Subjective judgment. D. Subconscious familiarity. 14. Which activity shows the application of the mere exposure effect? A. A novelist organizes a book signing event. B. A game studio develops a challenging mode. C. A singer buys hot recommendations on a music app. D. A fashion brand reintroduces certain classic designs. 15. Why does the author mention ads at the end of the text? A. To criticize fake advertising. B. To oppose outdoor advertising. C. To point out the drawbacks of ads. D. To caution against the influence of ads. 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。 Travelers often fill their suitcases with souvenirs like refrigerator magnets, keychains and postcards. ___16___ Now, those visiting the Italian lakeside town of Como have another, slightly less conventional item to bring home: a sealed can of Lake Como air. ItalyComunica, a communications company, is selling 13.5-ounce cans of “pure air from the most beautiful lake in the world” for roughly $11 (€9.90) each. ___17___ They feature a dark blue label with an illustration of a boat cruising through the water. “Open it whenever you need a moment of escape, tranquility, or simply beauty,” instructs the website. “Only those who visit Lake Como can want to buy our souvenir; memories are not bought but lived.” Sitting at the base of the Alps, Lake Como is a large body of water in Italy’s northern Lombardy region. ___18___ Many celebrities own second homes in the surrounding area, and numerous movies have been filmed there. ___19___ Clever businesspeople have been selling similar products for decades.

Any benefits from canned air are likely due to the placebo (安慰剂) effect, experts say.

He loved food, but at school, he often found himself the target of cruel jokes and teasing. His classmates would call him names like “Big Tim” and make fun of his size, and though Tim tried to ignore it, it still hurt. Every day, he wished he could be like the athletic kids, running fast and playing sports with ease, but that always seemed out of reach. One day, a group of his classmates — three boys who were notorious for their pranks (恶作剧) — decided to play a trick on him. They knew Tim wasn’t athletic, and they thought it would be funny to sign him up for the upcoming school’s long-distance race. They figured he’d panic when he found out and that it would be fun to watch him fail. Without telling Tim, they registered his name for the race. On race day, as Tim walked across the track trying to join his classmates in the stands, he saw some of them holding giant posters of his face with slogans like “The Big Runner” and “Go Tim!” He froze. He realized what had happened — the boys had tricked him into racing. His face turned red with embarrassment, but the crowd was already watching, and he felt trapped. The starting gun fired, and to everyone’s surprise, Tim began to jog. It wasn’t fast, and he could barely keep up with the other runners, but he kept moving. His legs burned with each step, and his breath came in sharp gasps, but he didn’t stop. His classmates’ laughter echoed in his ears, but he ignored it. As the race went on, something shifted. A few students who weren’t part of the prank started cheering for him. “Come on, Tim! You can do it!” they yelled. Their encouragement made Tim feel lighter, and his pace picked up just a little. It wasn’t about winning anymore; it was about proving to himself that he could finish. 注意： 1. 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。 By the time Tim reached the final lap, he was tired out. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The crowd erupted in applause. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
