The city turns into a proper winter wonderland. But when the cold gets a bit too serious, there’s plenty to do once you step inside, too. Holmenkollen Speaking of snow sports, no trip to Oslo in winter is complete without a visit to Holmenkollen. Holmenkollen is a mountain that’s home to some of the coolest attractions in Oslo. Firstly, there’s the ski jump, which dates back over 100 years. There’s also the ski museum, which is the oldest of its kind in the world and houses over 4,000 years of history. Warm up at the KOK Oslo KOK Oslo is a sauna (桑拿浴室) unlike any other, mainly because it floats. KOK Oslo drifts around the Oslo Fjord throughout the river, and offers three experiences for guests. Enjoy the experience with others, or rent it out for a private group. If you’re brave enough, you can even take a dip in the water! Get educated at the Nobel Peace Center In this center, you can get educated on the history of the prize and its founder, Alfred Nobel. Explore the museum, take a guided tour, or if you time your visit right, attend a specific event or exhibition. Obviously if it’s cold outside, then this can be a great place to visit to get inside for a bit. There’s also a really love cafe here too! See one of the world’s largest sculpture parks The winter is actually one of the best times to visit Vigeland Sculpture Park. It’s the world’s largest sculpture park by one artist, and houses over 200 of Gustav Vigeland’s bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures. In the summer, the place is heaving, so out of season you miss the crowds and get more time to peruse (研读) the collection. 1. Why is the KOK Oslo different from other saunas? A.

KOK Oslo drifts around the Oslo Fjord throughout the river(KOK Oslo 是一个与众不同的桑拿浴室，主要是因为它是漂浮着的。KOK Oslo 沿着奥斯陆峡湾的河流四处漂流)” 可知，KOK Oslo 与其他桑拿浴室不同是因为它是可移动的。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章 “Get educated at the Nobel Peace Center” 部分 “In this center, you can get educated on the history of the prize and its founder, Alfred Nobel.(在这个中心，你可以了解该奖项的历史及其创始人阿尔弗雷德・诺贝尔)” 可知，在诺贝尔和平中心你可以了解诺贝尔奖。故选B。 3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章“Holmenkollen”部分“There’s also the ski museum, which is the oldest of its kind in the world and houses over 4,000 years of history.(还有滑雪博物馆，它是世界上同类博物馆中最古老的，收藏着超过 4000 年的历史展品)” 以及“See one of the world’s largest sculpture parks”部分“houses over 200 of Gustav Vigeland’s bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures.(收藏了 200 多件古斯塔夫・维格兰的青铜、花岗岩和铸铁雕塑)” 可知，霍尔门科伦山和维格兰雕塑公园的共同之处是都有展品。故选A。 B During the last few weeks, I spent numerous hot nights standing beside or on my bed, trying to catch mosquitoes in my room. After my friend kept hearing about my nightly adventures, he showed up with a gift one morning: a mosquito net. It was huge, white and held the promise of a good night’s sleep. I asked my father for instructions to hang it up, which he emailed in great detail — thinking I’d be able to turn the screw on which to hang the net into the ceiling. That didn’t quite work out. Luckily, a plumber (水电工) happened to come to my house that day. After examining the net and my ceiling, he assessed it wasn’t going to happen by hand. “You’ll need an electric drill.” Then I showed him how I could borrow a drill on an app that lets us borrow things we need from your neighbors and received three responses from people living nearby within minutes, saying they’d happily lend out theirs. One of them turned out to be a friend whose house is only 200 meters away, and the device could be picked up at his place in the evening. Back at home, I started drilling but seemed to be unable to get through the ceiling. My dad got on speakerphone and listened to what it sounded like. After three minutes, he told me to stop. I might be hitting iron and the last thing I wanted to do was to mess up the drill. “We’ll do it after I come back next week,” he said. “Just be patient.” Just then I heard someone parking their car outside my house. I walked up and asked for help. To my surprise, they agreed immediately. While his girlfriend and I looked at the man in admiration, he got through the ceiling within 20 seconds. The mosquito net was finally up within a minute. 4. How did the author get the mosquito net? A. By receiving it as a prize. B. By borrowing it from a neighbor. C. By buying it from an app. D. By getting it as a gift. 5. Why did the author turn to the app? A. To borrow a tool. B. To talk to his family. C. To borrow money. D. To ask someone to do housework. 6. What did the author’s father suggest when realizing the drill might hit iron? A. Continuing drilling. B. Using a stronger drill. C. Waiting until he came back. D. Asking a neighbor for help. 7. What can we learn from the author’s experience? A. Patience is the key to success. B. Sometimes, asking for help can be more effective. C. Tools can make a difference in solving problems. D. It’s important to wait for the right person to come. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在房间里挂蚊帐的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“After my friend kept hearing about my nightly adventures, he showed up with a gift one morning: a mosquito net. (在我朋友不断听说我夜间冒险的故事后，一天早上，他带着一份礼物出现了：蚊帐。)”可知，作者得到蚊帐是作为礼物。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then I showed him how I could borrow a drill on an app that lets us borrow things we need from your neighbors and received three responses from people living nearby within minutes, saying they’d happily lend out theirs. (然后我向他展示了如何在应用程序上借电钻，该应用程序允许我们从邻居那里借我们需要的东西，并在几分钟内收到了住在附近的三个人的回复，他们说他们很乐意借出他们的电钻。)”可知，作者转向应用程序是为了借工具。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“After three minutes, he told me to stop. I might be hitting iron and the last thing I wanted to do was to mess up the drill. “We’ll do it after I come back next week,” he said. “Just be patient.” (三分钟后，他让我停下来。我可能碰到铁了，而我最不希望发生的事情就是把电钻弄坏。“等我下周回来我们再弄，”他说道，“耐心点。”)”可知，当作者的父亲意识到电钻可能会撞到铁时，他建议等到他回来。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Just then I heard someone parking their car outside my house. I walked up and asked for help. To my surprise, they agreed immediately. While his girlfriend and I looked at the man in admiration, he got through the ceiling within 20 seconds. The mosquito net was finally up within a minute. (就在这时，我听到有人把车停在我家外面。我走上前去寻求帮助。令我惊讶的是，他们立刻同意了。当他的女朋友和我用钦佩的目光看着他时，他在20秒内穿过了天花板。蚊帐终于在一分钟内挂了起来。)”可推知，我们能从作者的经历中学到有时候，寻求帮助会更有效。故选B。 C Baseball has served as more than just a sport throughout its history. One such period is the Great Recession (大衰退) of 2008, a time marked by financial hardship, unemployment, and uncertainty. Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment. and even a sense of normality to many. As the Great Recession spread around the world starting in 2008 every sector faced significant challenges. For Major League Baseball (MLB), the impact was visible. Fans found themselves tightening their belts. Teams began offering flexible ticket pricing and promotions to families and individuals hit hardest by the economic downturn. “Dollar Night” promotions became more common, offering affordable entrance fees and snacks to ensure family visits remained possible. While the Great Recession posed numerous challenges, it also coexisted with a technological transformation (转变) that reshaped how fans engaged with baseball. MLB made use of the digital wave, enabling fans worldwide to watch games live. Moreover, the rise of social media allowed for more personalized and immediate fan engagement. Teams and players used platforms to communicate directly with fans through platforms, sharing behind-the-scenes content, hosting live Q & A sessions, and offering insights into players’ life off the field. These innovations further increased the role of baseball as a comforting, unifying force even during economic hardship. Baseball’s influence as a cultural and social entity (实体) remained deep during the Great Recession. The 2008 World Series, for instance, offered a rare moment in economic recession. As the Philadelphia Phillies won the game and kept their title, the win symbolized championship and community spirit, encouraging far beyond the city and showing baseball’s ability to inspire unity across different backgrounds and challenges. As we reflect on the interaction between baseball and economic crises, from the Great Recession to today’s economic landscape, it becomes clear that the sport stands as a remarkable proof to adaptation and cultural permanence. 8. Why did people go watch baseball games in the crisis? A. They were little affected by the crisis. B. It provided inspiration to people. C. They didn’t work so they had time. D. It was the only amusement at that time. 9 How did MLB attract audiences during the Great Recession? A. By providing free snacks to fans. B. By reducing the number of games. C. By increasing face-to-face interactions. D. By adopting family-friendly promotions. 10. What did the social media bring to baseball? A. Increasing fans’ engagements. B. Organizing larger fan events. C. Broadcasting games in real time. D. Establishing a special community. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. The Impacts of Sports on the Social Culture. B. The Adjustment of MLB in the Great Recession. C. The Role of Baseball During Economic Crises. D. The Importance of Unity Spirit During Hardship. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了棒球在经济危机中给人们带来的希望、娱乐，甚至是正常感，以及棒球在经济危机中的调整。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment, and even a sense of normality to many. (然而，棒球不仅成功地生存了下来，而且为许多人提供了希望、娱乐，甚至是一种正常的感觉。)”可知，在危机中人们去看棒球比赛是因为它给人们提供了希望和激励。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Fans found themselves tightening their belts. Teams began offering flexible ticket pricing and promotions to families and individuals hit hardest by the economic downturn. (球迷们发现自己勒紧了裤腰带。各支球队开始为受经济衰退打击最严重的家庭和个人提供灵活的票价和促销活动。)”可知，美国职业棒球大联盟通过采取适合家庭的促销活动来吸引观众。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Moreover, the rise of social media allowed for more personalized and immediate fan engagement. (此外，社交媒体的兴起让粉丝们可以进行更个性化、更即时的互动。)”可知，社交媒体增加了球迷的参与度。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Baseball has served as more than just a sport throughout its history. One such period is the Great Recession (大衰退) of 2008, a time marked by financial hardship, unemployment, and uncertainty. Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment, and even a sense of normality to many. (纵观其历史，棒球不仅仅是一项运动。2008年的大衰退就是这样一个时期，它的特点是经济困难、失业和不确定性。然而，棒球不仅成功地生存了下来，而且为许多人提供了希望、娱乐，甚至是一种正常的感觉。)”和最后一段“As we reflect on the interaction between baseball and economic crises, from the Great Recession to today’s economic landscape, it becomes clear that the sport stands as a remarkable proof to adaptation and cultural permanence. (当我们反思棒球和经济危机之间的相互作用时，从大衰退到今天的经济格局，很明显，这项运动是适应和文化持久性的一个显著证明。)”可知，本文主要讲述了棒球在经济危机中给人们带来的希望、娱乐，甚至是正常感，以及棒球在经济危机中的调整，所以C选项“The Role of Baseball During Economic Crises. (棒球在经济危机中的作用。)”概括了文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 D Popular and distinctive, known for their kitten-like faces and red coats, red pandas are endangered with their numbers decreasing. Due to their fragmented (分散的) populations, obtaining an accurate count is challenging, but the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) estimates that fewer than 10,000 remain in the wild. Alarmingly, their populations are believed to have decreased by approximately 40% over the past two decades. Red pandas rely heavily on bamboo. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. But unlike giant pandas that eat almost all parts of the plant, red pandas are captious and only dine on the nutrient-rich tips of the leaves and the tasty, tender shoots. They need a lot of it to survive-around 2 kilograms each day. Sometimes, if they have no other option, they will eat fruit, roots, acorns, grasses, insects, and bird eggs, as well as kill small animals. Unfortunately, finding enough bamboo has become increasingly difficult as red pandas’ habitats continue to shrink. Human activities such as deforestation for housing, farming, and mining have led to significant habitat loss. Additionally, livestock (家畜) in forests competes with red pandas for bamboo. Natural disasters, including landslides, floods, and heavy snow, have further damaged their habitats. Other threats include forest fires, invasive (入侵的) plant species, and the natural death of bamboo. Red pandas also face dangers from illegal hunting. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) reports that hunting is increasing, with red pandas being killed for their fur and meat. Some hunters even capture and sell them as illegal pets. Efforts are underway to protect red pandas and their habitats. China has established 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitats. India, Bhutan, and Myanmar have also established protected areas. Organizations such as the Red Panda Network and WWF are working with local communities to raise awareness, train wildlife guardians, and establish conservation programs. By supporting conservation efforts, individuals can help ensure a future for these endangered animals. Promising to protect the environment or virtually adopting a red panda can make a difference. 12. What makes it difficult to count wild red pandas? A. They frequently move from different habitats. B. They live in deep forests with little human access. C. Their numbers are decreasing too quickly to track. D. Their populations spread across different regions. 13. What does the underlined word “captious” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Greedy. B. Picky. C. Careless. D. Generous. 14. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. The impact of red pandas’ issues. B. The difficulty in protecting red pandas. C. The causes for red pandas’ endangerment. D. The situation of the habitats of red pandas. 15. Which is one way to protect red pandas? A. Adopting a red panda from the WWF. B. Encouraging locals to protect the environment. C. Breeding them in zoos for future release. D. Stopping all human activities in their habitats. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕小熊猫的濒危现状、濒危原因以及保护措施展开。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Due to their fragmented (分散的) populations, obtaining an accurate count is challenging, but the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) estimates that fewer than 10,000 remain in the wild. (由于它们的种群分散，要获得准确的数量是很有挑战性的，但世界自然基金会(WWF)估计，目前野生的小熊猫不到1万只。)”可知，野生小熊猫的数量很难统计是因为它们的种群分布在不同的地区。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“only dine on the nutrient-rich tips of the leaves and the tasty, tender shoots. (只吃营养丰富的叶尖和美味嫩嫩的嫩芽。)”可知，小熊猫只吃营养丰富的叶尖和美味嫩嫩的嫩芽，即它们对食物很挑剔，由此可知，captious意为“挑剔的”。故选B。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Unfortunately, finding enough bamboo has become increasingly difficult as red pandas’ habitats continue to shrink. Human activities such as deforestation for housing, farming, and mining have led to significant habitat loss. Additionally, livestock (家畜) in forests competes with red pandas for bamboo. Natural disasters, including landslides, floods, and heavy snow, have further damaged their habitats. Other threats include forest fires, invasive (入侵的) plant species, and the natural death of bamboo. Red pandas also face dangers from illegal hunting. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) reports that hunting is increasing, with red pandas being killed for their fur and meat. Some hunters even capture and sell them as illegal pets. (不幸的是，随着小熊猫栖息地的不断缩小，要找到足够的竹子变得越来越困难。人类活动，如为住房、农业和采矿而砍伐森林，导致了栖息地的显著丧失。此外，森林中的家畜与小熊猫争夺竹子。包括山体滑坡、洪水和暴雪在内的自然灾害进一步破坏了它们的栖息地。其他威胁包括森林火灾、入侵植物物种和竹子的自然死亡。小熊猫也面临着非法狩猎的危险。国际自然保护联盟(IUCN)报告称，狩猎活动正在增加，小熊猫被猎杀以获取皮毛和肉。一些猎人甚至捕捉它们并作为非法宠物出售。)”可知，第三段的主要思想是小熊猫濒危的原因。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“By supporting conservation efforts, individuals can help ensure a future for these endangered animals. Promising to protect the environment or virtually adopting a red panda can make a difference. (通过支持保护工作，个人可以帮助确保这些濒危动物的未来。承诺保护环境或虚拟收养一只小熊猫都能带来改变。)”可知，保护小熊猫的方法是鼓励当地人保护环境。故选B。 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。 Chinese ink wash painting is a captivating art form that has attracted viewers for centuries. ____16____ That was a period marked by cultural flourishing and artistic innovation.

F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国水墨画这一艺术形式，包括其起源、常见主题（自然、动物所代表的象征意义）、体现的和谐与平衡以及与诗歌和书法的结合。 【16题详解】 “That was a period marked by cultural flourishing and artistic innovation. During this time, Chinese ink wash painting emerged as a distinct genre, shaped by calligraphic traditions and the philosophies of Daoism and Confucianism.(那是一个文化繁荣和艺术创新的时期。在这个时期，中国水墨画作为一种独特的艺术体裁出现，受到书法传统以及道家和儒家哲学的影响)” 可知，这里在描述水墨画起源的时期，所以前文应提及起源于哪个朝代。故B选项“它的起源可以追溯到唐朝”符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 根据上文“For instance, the pine tree symbolizes resilience and longevity, as it remains green throughout the year.(例如，松树象征着韧性和长寿，因为它一年四季常绿)” 及下文“It bends but not breaks in the face of adversity.(它在逆境中弯曲但不折断)” 可推知，前文提到松树象征韧性和长寿，后文说它在逆境中弯曲但不折断，所以此处应介绍另一种自然事物所代表的意义。故C选项“同样，竹子代表柔韧性和力量。”符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 该段讲水墨画中动物的象征意义。根据上文“The dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good fortune. It’s usually drawn flying gracefully or flying by a calm pond. These dragons are not just decorations.(龙是权力、力量和好运的象征。它通常被画成优雅地飞翔或在平静的池塘边飞翔。这些龙不仅仅是装饰)”可知，前文提到龙是权力、力量和好运的象征，所以此处应总结这些动物被精心选择以传达更深层次的意义。故D选项“它们是经过精心挑选的，以传达更深层次的含义”故选D。 【19题详解】 根据下文“For example, the empty space around a single branch can inspire a sense of vastness and stillness.(例如，单个树枝周围的空白空间可以激发一种广阔和宁静的感觉)” 可知，此处说明负空间（空白空间）的使用很重要。故A选项“在这方面，使用负空间（空白空间）是至关重要的”符合语境，引起下文。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据下文“The written words are an essential part of the artwork, adding deeper meanings and enhancing the composition. Poems are usually written in elegant calligraphy, reflecting the themes of the painting.(文字是艺术作品的重要组成部分，增添了更深层次的意义并提升了构图。诗歌通常用优雅的书法书写，反映了绘画的主题。)” 可推知，该段围绕水墨画与诗歌、书法的结合展开。故F选项“此外，这种艺术形式往往结合了诗歌和书法。”符合语境，引起下文。故选F。 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。 One day, it was raining heavily.

She loved the feeling of anticipation that filled the air as everyone prepared to welcome the new year. Through the window, she could see their neighbor, Mr. Jenkins, decorating his porch with glowing lanterns and a giant “Happy New Year” picture. He waved at her with his signature smile, nearly tripping over a box of party supplies. “Always up to something silly,” Annie smiled to herself, remembering how he’d dressed as a dancing carrot at last year’s Halloween party. As the evening approached, Annie’s family gathered in the living room, surrounded by twinkling lights and decorations. The smell of delicious food floated from the kitchen, making Annie’s stomach rumble with hunger. “Are you ready for the countdown, Annie?” her dad asked, slightly patting her little head with a smile. Annie nodded enthusiastically, her eyes shining with joy. She couldn’t wait to see the fireworks light up the sky and to make a wish for the new year. As the clock struck midnight, cheers and laughter filled the room. Annie closed her eyes tightly and made her wish, hoping with all her heart that it would come true. But just as she finished her wish, a loud pop (爆裂声) echoed through the room, causing everyone to jump in surprise. Annie opened her eyes to see her little brother, Timmy, holding a deflated (泄气的) balloon and looking sheepish. Annie couldn’t help but smile at her brother’s incident. “Don’t worry, Timmy. It’s okay,” Annie reassured him, giving him a hug. “It’s all part of the fun of New Year’s Eve!” Just then, their mom appeared with a tray of sparkling apple cider (苹果汁), raising her glass in a toast to the new year. The family clinked their glasses together, sharing their hopes and dreams for the coming year. As the night went on, Annie and Timmy danced around the living room, their laughter blending with the music playing in the background. It was a magical moment, filled with love and joy. 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。 Suddenly, the doorbell rang, interrupting their dance. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the night drew to a close, Annie felt a sense of contentment wash over her. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Suddenly, the doorbell rang, interrupting their dance. Annie rushed to open it, finding Mr. Jenkins standing there with a plate of cookies shaped like fireworks. “Happy New Year, neighbors!” he cheered, his glasses slightly askew. Before anyone could react, Timmy grabbed a cookie excitedly, causing crumbs to scatter everywhere. Laughter erupted as Mr. Jenkins joined their celebration, sharing stories of his youthful New Year pranks. The room buzzed with warmth, blending the sweetness of cookies with the joy of unexpected friendship. As the night drew to a close, Annie felt a sense of contentment wash over her. Watching Mr. Jenkins and Timmy playfully argue over the last cookie, she realized her wish had come true—the magic of connection. Outside, fireworks bloomed like promises in the sky, mirroring the sparkle in her heart. This New Year wasn’t just about resolutions; it was a reminder that love and laughter could turn ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了除夕夜 Little Annie 一家满怀期待地迎接新年，在新年钟声敲响时，弟弟 Timmy 弄爆气球制造了小插曲，之后一家人开心地跳舞，享受欢乐时光。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，门铃响了，打断了他们的舞蹈。”可知，第一段可描写铃响后发生的事情。从 Annie 开门看到邻居Mr. Jenkins 带着烟花形状的饼干来庆祝新年，到 Timmy 抢饼干引发欢笑，Mr. Jenkins 分享故事，突出欢乐氛围。 ②由第二段首句内容“当夜晚接近尾声时，安妮感到一种满足感涌上心头。”可知，第二段可描写夜晚将近时 Annie 的感受。通过描述 Annie 看到 Mr. Jenkins 和 Timmy 的互动，意识到自己关于情感连接的愿望实现，结合烟花点明新年的意义，升华主题。 2.续写线索：门铃响 Annie 开门 ——Mr. Jenkins 带饼干来庆祝 ——Timmy 抢饼干引发欢笑 ——Mr. Jenkins 分享故事 —— 夜晚将近 Annie 感悟愿望实现及新年意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①冲：rush /dash ②抓：grab /seize ③意识到：realize /be aware of 情绪类： ①欢乐：joy /happiness ②兴奋地：excitedly /with excitement 【点睛】【高分句型 1】Annie rushed to open it, finding Mr. Jenkins standing there with a plate of cookies shaped like fireworks.（运用了现在分词 finding 作伴随状语） 【高分句型 2】Watching Mr. Jenkins and Timmy playfully argue over the last cookie, she realized her wish had come true—the magic of connection.（运用了现在分词 Watching 作伴随状语，以及省略 that 的宾语从句 ） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024—2025学年高二（下）质检联盟期中考试 英语 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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纸上。 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。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.

The city turns into a proper winter wonderland. But when the cold gets a bit too serious, there’s plenty to do once you step inside, too. Holmenkollen Speaking of snow sports, no trip to Oslo in winter is complete without a visit to Holmenkollen. Holmenkollen is a mountain that’s home to some of the coolest attractions in Oslo. Firstly, there’s the ski jump, which dates back over 100 years. There’s also the ski museum, which is the oldest of its kind in the world and houses over 4,000 years of history. Warm up at the KOK Oslo KOK Oslo is a sauna (桑拿浴室) unlike any other, mainly because it floats. KOK Oslo drifts around the Oslo Fjord throughout the river, and offers three experiences for guests. Enjoy the experience with others, or rent it out for a private group. If you’re brave enough, you can even take a dip in the water! Get educated at the Nobel Peace Center In this center, you can get educated on the history of the prize and its founder, Alfred Nobel. Explore the museum, take a guided tour, or if you time your visit right, attend a specific event or exhibition. Obviously if it’s cold outside, then this can be a great place to visit to get inside for a bit. There’s also a really love cafe here too! See one of the world’s largest sculpture parks The winter is actually one of the best times to visit Vigeland Sculpture Park. It’s the world’s largest sculpture park by one artist, and houses over 200 of Gustav Vigeland’s bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures.

After my friend kept hearing about my nightly adventures, he showed up with a gift one morning: a mosquito net. It was huge, white and held the promise of a good night’s sleep. I asked my father for instructions to hang it up, which he emailed in great detail — thinking I’d be able to turn the screw on which to hang the net into the ceiling. That didn’t quite work out. Luckily, a plumber (水电工) happened to come to my house that day. After examining the net and my ceiling, he assessed it wasn’t going to happen by hand. “You’ll need an electric drill.” Then I showed him how I could borrow a drill on an app that lets us borrow things we need from your neighbors and received three responses from people living nearby within minutes, saying they’d happily lend out theirs. One of them turned out to be a friend whose house is only 200 meters away, and the device could be picked up at his place in the evening. Back at home, I started drilling but seemed to be unable to get through the ceiling. My dad got on speakerphone and listened to what it sounded like. After three minutes, he told me to stop. I might be hitting iron and the last thing I wanted to do was to mess up the drill. “We’ll do it after I come back next week,” he said. “Just be patient.” Just then I heard someone parking their car outside my house. I walked up and asked for help. To my surprise, they agreed immediately. While his girlfriend and I looked at the man in admiration, he got through the ceiling within 20 seconds. The mosquito net was finally up within a minute. 4. How did the author get the mosquito net? A. By receiving it as a prize. B. By borrowing it from a neighbor. C By buying it from an app. D. By getting it as a gift. 5. Why did the author turn to the app? A. To borrow a tool. B. To talk to his family. C. To borrow money. D. To ask someone to do housework. 6. What did the author’s father suggest when realizing the drill might hit iron? A. Continuing drilling. B. Using a stronger drill. C. Waiting until he came back. D. Asking a neighbor for help. 7. What can we learn from the author’s experience? A. Patience is the key to success. B. Sometimes, asking for help can be more effective. C. Tools can make a difference in solving problems. D. It’s important to wait for the right person to come. C Baseball has served as more than just a sport throughout its history. One such period is the Great Recession (大衰退) of 2008 a time marked by financial hardship, unemployment, and uncertainty. Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment. and even a sense of normality to many. As the Great Recession spread around the world starting in 2008, every sector faced significant challenges. For Major League Baseball (MLB), the impact was visible. Fans found themselves tightening their belts. Teams began offering flexible ticket pricing and promotions to families and individuals hit hardest by the economic downturn. “Dollar Night” promotions became more common, offering affordable entrance fees and snacks to ensure family visits remained possible. While the Great Recession posed numerous challenges, it also coexisted with a technological transformation (转变) that reshaped how fans engaged with baseball. MLB made use of the digital wave, enabling fans worldwide to watch games live. Moreover, the rise of social media allowed for more personalized and immediate fan engagement. Teams and players used platforms to communicate directly with fans through platforms, sharing behind-the-scenes content, hosting live Q & A sessions, and offering insights into players’ life off the field. These innovations further increased the role of baseball as a comforting, unifying force even during economic hardship. Baseball’s influence as a cultural and social entity (实体) remained deep during the Great Recession. The 2008 World Series, for instance, offered a rare moment in economic recession. As the Philadelphia Phillies won the game and kept their title, the win symbolized championship and community spirit, encouraging far beyond the city and showing baseball’s ability to inspire unity across different backgrounds and challenges. As we reflect on the interaction between baseball and economic crises, from the Great Recession to today’s economic landscape, it becomes clear that the sport stands as a remarkable proof to adaptation and cultural permanence. 8. Why did people go watch baseball games in the crisis? A. They were little affected by the crisis. B. It provided inspiration to people. C. They didn’t work so they had time. D. It was the only amusement at that time. 9. How did MLB attract audiences during the Great Recession? A. By providing free snacks to fans. B. By reducing the number of games. C. By increasing face-to-face interactions. D. By adopting family-friendly promotions. 10. What did the social media bring to baseball? A. Increasing fans’ engagements. B. Organizing larger fan events. C. Broadcasting games in real time. D. Establishing a special community. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. The Impacts of Sports on the Social Culture. B. The Adjustment of MLB in the Great Recession. C. The Role of Baseball During Economic Crises. D. The Importance of Unity Spirit During Hardship. D Popular and distinctive, known for their kitten-like faces and red coats, red pandas are endangered with their numbers decreasing. Due to their fragmented (分散的) populations, obtaining an accurate count is challenging, but the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) estimates that fewer than 10,000 remain in the wild. Alarmingly, their populations are believed to have decreased by approximately 40% over the past two decades. Red pandas rely heavily on bamboo. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. But unlike giant pandas that eat almost all parts of the plant, red pandas are captious and only dine on the nutrient-rich tips of the leaves and the tasty, tender shoots. They need a lot of it to survive-around 2 kilograms each day. Sometimes, if they have no other option, they will eat fruit, roots, acorns, grasses, insects, and bird eggs, as well as kill small animals. Unfortunately, finding enough bamboo has become increasingly difficult as red pandas’ habitats continue to shrink. Human activities such as deforestation for housing, farming, and mining have led to significant habitat loss. Additionally, livestock (家畜) in forests competes with red pandas for bamboo. Natural disasters, including landslides, floods, and heavy snow, have further damaged their habitats. Other threats include forest fires, invasive (入侵的) plant species, and the natural death of bamboo. Red pandas also face dangers from illegal hunting. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) reports that hunting is increasing, with red pandas being killed for their fur and meat. Some hunters even capture and sell them as illegal pets. Efforts are underway to protect red pandas and their habitats. China has established 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitats. India, Bhutan, and Myanmar have also established protected areas. Organizations such as the Red Panda Network and WWF are working with local communities to raise awareness, train wildlife guardians, and establish conservation programs. By supporting conservation efforts, individuals can help ensure a future for these endangered animals.

She loved the feeling of anticipation that filled the air as everyone prepared to welcome the new year. Through the window, she could see their neighbor, Mr. Jenkins, decorating his porch with glowing lanterns and a giant “Happy New Year” picture. He waved at her with his signature smile, nearly tripping over a box of party supplies. “Always up to something silly,” Annie smiled to herself, remembering how he’d dressed as a dancing carrot at last year’s Halloween party. As the evening approached, Annie’s family gathered in the living room, surrounded by twinkling lights and decorations. The smell of delicious food floated from the kitchen, making Annie’s stomach rumble with hunger. “Are you ready for the countdown, Annie?” her dad asked, slightly patting her little head with a smile. Annie nodded enthusiastically, her eyes shining with joy. She couldn’t wait to see the fireworks light up the sky and to make a wish for the new year. As the clock struck midnight, cheers and laughter filled the room. Annie closed her eyes tightly and made her wish, hoping with all her heart that it would come true. But just as she finished her wish, a loud pop (爆裂声) echoed through the room, causing everyone to jump in surprise. Annie opened her eyes to see her little brother, Timmy, holding a deflated (泄气的) balloon and looking sheepish. Annie couldn’t help but smile at her brother’s incident. “Don’t worry, Timmy. It’s okay,” Annie reassured him, giving him a hug. “It’s all part of the fun of New Year’s Eve!” Just then, their mom appeared with a tray of sparkling apple cider (苹果汁), raising her glass in a toast to the new year. The family clinked their glasses together, sharing their hopes and dreams for the coming year. As the night went on, Annie and Timmy danced around the living room, their laughter blending with the music playing in the background. It was a magical moment, filled with love and joy. 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。 Suddenly, the doorbell rang, interrupting their dance. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the night drew to a close, Annie felt a sense of contentment wash over her. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
