And climbing back to success after nearly being killed in a car accident that left her with several broken bones and a collapsed lung is Ariana Berlin, a gymnast and dancer. These are just a couple of the handful of women highlighted in Room 138 for the “Together We Rise” Disability Awareness Exhibit, which recognizes people with disabilities. Mainly initiated by senior Avari Brocker, president of the All Minds All Bodies Club, the exhibıt focuses on developing a space to raise awareness about visible and invisible disabilities. “As a young child who didn’t know I was disabled and only knew I was struggling, I felt really solitary,” Brocker said. “I felt like I didn’t have a community.” Discovering her disability less than two years ago at 16, Brocker was inspired to find ways she could advocate immediately after being diagnosed with dyslexia(阅读障碍) and ADHD. Since then, she has become involved in the International Dyslexia Association. “Growing up like that made me realize that spreading awareness of disabilities was part of my purpose in life, ” she said. “But everybody needs help and needs a village. Nobody gets anywhere on their own. ” After the exhibit on Friday, March 14, students stayed in their homerooms to watch a video that provided insight towards what the most universal invisible disabilities were at school. ADHD, anxiety disorders, and dyslexia were among the most common according to a study Brocker conducted for her club. “We wanted to give people a window into what it’s like to be neurodivergent(神经分化),” Brocker said. She reflected on how it felt emotionally tiring to have her struggles emphasized at school, noting that sometimes her disability became more apparent in social situations too, but she’s grateful to friends who supported her through the process, like playing a game all together. Between the exhibit and the video, there’s one thing she hopes for students to take away. “Disability doesn’t prevent a person’s ability to do things,” she said. “It also isn’t a weakness to ask for help. ” 4. What does the underlined word “solitary” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Grateful. B. Cheated. C. Respected. D. Lonely. 5. How did Brocker’s personal experiences affect her? A. She started spreading disability awareness. B. She realized the importance of reading. C. She helped launch a dyslexia association. D. She funded people with disabilities. 6. What was the video students watched after the exhibit about? A. Physical disabilities in sports. B. Common disabilities on campus. C. Disabled artists’ attainments. D. Legal rights for disabled students. 7. What message does Brocker hope students will learn? A. Disability defines one’s identity. B. Success requires hiding weaknesses. C. Disability doesn’t mean inability. D. Academic skills outweigh disability. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。一位残疾女士通过自己的个人经历和她发起的“Together We Rise”残疾意识展呼吁社会正视残疾、消除偏见。 【4题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词后“I felt like I didn’t have a community.(我觉得我没有一个社区。)”可推断，Brocker感到非常孤独，没有在集体中。solitary意为“孤独的”，与 Lonely同义。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““Growing up like that made me realize that spreading awareness of disabilities was part of my purpose in life, ” she said.(她说：“这样的成长让我意识到，传播对残疾人的意识是我人生目标的一部分。”)”可知，Avari Brocker的个人经历促使了她把“传播残疾意识”作为自己的使命。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“After the exhibit on Friday, March 14, students stayed in their homerooms to watch a video that provided insight towards what the most universal invisible disabilities were at school. ADHD, anxiety disorders, and dyslexia were among the most common according to a study Brocker conducted for her club.(在3月14日星期五的展览结束后，学生们留在教室里观看了一段视频，该视频提供了对学校中最普遍的隐形残疾的见解。根据Brocker为她的俱乐部进行的一项研究，多动症、焦虑症和阅读障碍是最常见的。)”可知，展览后，学生们在家观看的视频是关于校园里的常见残疾。故选B。 7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Between the exhibit and the video, there’s one thing she hopes for students to take away. “Disability doesn’t prevent a person’s ability to do things,” she said. “It also isn’t a weakness to ask for help. ”(在展览和视频之间，她希望学生们能带走一件事。“残疾并不妨碍一个人做事的能力，”她说。“寻求帮助也不是缺点。”)”可知，Brocker希望学生们知道：残疾并不意味无能。故选C。 C If you’re digitally skilled, it has likely been a while since you spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of tracing out our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page is becoming a thing of the past in our screen-dominated world, where text messages and thumb-typed grocery lists have replaced handwritten letters and sticky notes. To keep up, many schools are introducing computers as early as preschool, meaning some kids may learn the basics of typing before writing by hand. Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost. Typing pays no attention to the form of the letters — only involving relatively simple and uniform movements. By contrast, handwriting is a complex task. Motor system has to delicately adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter. Adding to the complexity, your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s formed, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to create the letters’ shapes. “This process lets you make your body and what you are seeing mesh (匹配).” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive psychologist at the University of North Carolina, adding “such complexity is crucial to mental development.” Screens and keyboards replacing pen and paper might affect kids’ ability to learn letters, which is actually an important predictor of later reading and math attainment. If young children are not receiving any handwriting training, their brains simply won’t reach their full potential. For adults, typing often results in failing to actually process information. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But often, they’re just typing blindly, failing to make information their own. On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through ideas. Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to capitalize on the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form. 8. What does the author mainly convey in paragraph 1? A. Abandoning handwriting is unwise. B. Digital literacy is ignored nowadays. C. Handwritten communication is out of date. D. Computer courses are unusual in preschools. 9. Why is handwriting considered a complex task? A. It demands high creativity in designing each letter. B. It involves precise finger pressure and visual adjustment. C. It relies entirely on visual processing to shape the letters. D. It requires consistent pressure from the fingers to form letters. 10. What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A. Blind typing contributes to brain development. B. Kids have a preference for screens and keyboards. C. Handwritten markers are good for getting ideas linked. D. Adults have the ability to memorize complex information. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards using digital pens? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Critical. D. Favourable. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了手写对大脑发育有益，解释了背后的原因以及作者对智能笔的态度。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“If you’re digitally skilled, it has likely been a while since you spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of tracing out our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page is becoming a thing of the past in our screen-dominated world, where text messages and thumb-typed grocery lists have replaced handwritten letters and sticky notes. To keep up, many schools are introducing computers as early as preschool, meaning some kids may learn the basics of typing before writing by hand. Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost.(如果你具备一定的数字操作能力，那么很可能你已经很久没有花太多时间亲手书写了。在我们这个以屏幕为主导的世界里，逐字逐句地在纸上勾勒出我们的想法这一费力的过程正在逐渐成为过去式。在这里，短信和拇指敲出的购物清单已经取代了手写的信件和便签纸。为了跟上时代步伐，许多学校早在幼儿园阶段就开始引入电脑教学，这意味着一些孩子可能会在学习手写之前就先掌握打字的基本技能。尽管电子键盘有着明显的效率优势，但放弃手写可能会带来巨大的代价)”可知，作者在第1段想表达放弃手写是不明智的。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“By contrast, handwriting is a complex task. Motor system has to delicately adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter.(相比之下，书写是一项复杂的任务。运动系统需要精确地控制每个手指在笔上的施压力度，以书写出每一个字母)”可知，书写被认为是一项复杂的任务是因为它需要精确的指压以及视觉上的调整。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“For adults, typing often results in failing to actually process information. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But often, they’re just typing blindly, failing to make information their own. On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through ideas.(对于成年人而言，打字往往会导致他们无法真正理解所接收的信息。在听讲座时，有些人可能会逐字地打下所听到的内容。但通常情况下，他们只是盲目地打字，未能真正将这些信息内化。另一方面，手写笔记则迫使他们只写下关键词汇，并通过绘制图形或使用箭头来阐述观点)”可知，手写笔记有助于把想法联系起来。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to capitalize on the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form.(实际上，我们无需摒弃诸如绘图板和智能笔这类数字工具，就能充分发挥手写的优势。最近的研究表明，在屏幕上书写与在纸上书写所激活的大脑路径是相同的。关键在于书写动作本身，而非最终的书写形式)”可知，作者对使用数字笔的态度是支持。故选D。 D What do you do as spring sets in? Taking off your warm winter coat, and putting it away? For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable. Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits. There are more and more white rabbits in the middle of a brown habitat, where the snow has already melted away. This is a problem for them, as they are more easily seen by their natural enemies, giving them a “mismatch” problem. Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies. Some predictions put the rabbits in up to 8 weeks of a white coat in a brown, snowless habitat by the end of this century. This timeline could spell doom for their populations, as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them. Fortunately, scientists have found areas with snowshoe rabbits in colour from white to brown in the same place, meaning the timing of the coat change can be influenced by the environment. Snowshoe rabbits reproduce quickly, and if the colour change timing is passed down then it is possible for rabbits to change coats accordingly. By protecting areas with variable ones, we can give snowshoe rabbits the opportunity to adapt to the changing climate. 12. Why does the author mention humans’ taking off winter coats? A. To imply the cleverness of humans. B. To stress the influence of climate change. C. To lead to the problem of snowshoe rabbits. D. To show the bond between humans and animals. 13. What has made scientists worry about snowshoe rabbits? A. They are active in freezing winter. B. They fail to keep their white colour. C. They can’t get rid of white fur when snow melts. D. They are easily caught by hunters on snowy days. 14. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A. More rabbits will be killed. B. Rabbits’ enemies are stronger. C. The rabbit population will explode. D. The rabbits may die out in the near future. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Snowshoe Rabbits: Masters of Coat Change. B. Snowshoe Rabbits: Survivors of Illegal Hunting. C. Snowshoe Rabbits: Victims of Climate Mismatch. D. Snowshoe Rabbits: Witnesses of Natural Selection. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过对比人类换衣与雪靴兔换毛的差异，说明气候变化导致雪靴兔因毛色与环境不匹配而面临生存危机，并探讨其可能的适应机制。 12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable.(对人类来说，脱下冬衣是一分钟的事。事实证明，并非所有动物都有这种能力。)”和第二段“And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring.(春天雪融化后，它们脱下冬衣，换上深棕色的皮毛，与泥土和树叶相匹配。)”可知，作者提到了人类脱掉冬衣是为了引出雪鞋兔换毛的问题。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies.(在春天，雪鞋兔的皮毛会根据白天长度的变化从白色变成棕色，而不是根据它们栖息地的温度或积雪情况。如今，雪平均融化一周后，白天长度的变化就会标志着毛色的变化，这让兔子暴露在它们的天敌面前。)”可知，让科学家担心的是当雪融化时，雪鞋兔无法摆脱白色的皮毛。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段划线部分后文“as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them.(因为它们的天敌有近两个月的时间可以轻易发现它们。)”可知，容易被天敌发现就说明更多的兔子会被杀死。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。分析全文内容，尤其根据第二段“Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits.(雪鞋兔生活在北美的山脉中，在冬天，它们有一层纯白色的皮毛，以适应下雪的环境，并帮助避免被抓住。春天雪融化后，它们脱下冬衣，换上深棕色的皮毛，与泥土和树叶相匹配。听起来像是逃离天敌的好方法，对吧？然而，当科学家开始研究气候变暖将如何影响兔子时，担忧就开始了。)”可知，本文主要说明气候变化导致雪靴兔因毛色与环境不匹配而面临生存危机，并探讨其可能的适应机制，所以C选项“雪鞋兔：气候不匹配的受害者。”适合用作文章标题。故选C项。 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。 In literature, flat and round characters offer distinct approaches to character development. Flat characters are defined by a singular symbolic characteristic. ____16____ For example, the evil stepmothers in traditional fairy tales are flat characters, serving to drive the story with their simplicity. By contrast, Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber exemplifies (举例说明) round characters, defined by inner conflicts, contradictions, and personal growth. ____17____ They reflect the unpredictability of humanity, making them more relatable and dynamic to readers. In earlier literary works, flat characters often symbolized heroic ideals, such as the brave heroes in The Odyssey. As society moves away from idealized heroes, literature focuses more on characters’ personal struggles, reflecting how writers began to see humanity in a more complex way. With the rise of realism in the 19th century, round characters gained popularity, as seen in Jane Eyre, which allowed for the exploration of personal identity and internal conflict. ____18____ However, not every character that appears in a story needs to be deep. ____19____ Imagine the main character is taking a taxi to a hotel. If we make the taxi driver a round character, the focus could shift from the main character to the taxi driver, potentially taking attention away from the main plot. ____20____ They together create tension and richness in a literary work. Flat characters provide clarity and focus, simplifying themes and making them accessible to readers. Meanwhile, round characters reveal human complexity, showing life beyond black and white. A. Neither type of characters is better than the other. B. Such characters stand out for complexity and depth. C. We don’t get heartfelt backstory to enrich their roles. D. If flat characters are round, they may “steal the show”. E. This shows how literature reflects evolving social views. F. Round characters are more engaging than flat characters. G. They are more like a spotlight, drawing attention to one aspect. 【答案】16. G 17. B 18. E 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了文学作品中扁平人物和圆形人物的特点及作用。 【16题详解】 上文“Flat characters are defined by a singular symbolic characteristic. (扁平人物由单一的象征性特征定义)”解释了扁平人物的定义，空处应进一步说明扁平人物的特点，G选项中They指代上文提及的Flat characters，G选项“它们更像是一个聚光灯，把注意力吸引到一个方面。”解释了扁平人物就像聚光灯一样，只聚焦于一个方面，突出其单一特征，承接上文，符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 上文“By contrast, Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber exemplifies (举例说明) round characters, defined by inner conflicts, contradictions, and personal growth. (相比之下，《红楼梦》中的贾宝玉是圆形人物的典型，以内心的冲突、矛盾和个人成长来定义)”提到圆形人物的特点，空处应进一步阐述圆形人物的这些特点，B选项“这样的人物因其复杂性和深度而脱颖而出。”强调了圆形人物的复杂性和深度，承接上文，符合语境。故选B。 【18题详解】 上文“With the rise of realism in the 19th century, round characters gained popularity, as seen in Jane Eyre, which allowed for the exploration of personal identity and internal conflict. (随着19世纪现实主义的兴起，圆形人物开始流行起来，如《简·爱》所示，这使得对个人身份和内心冲突的探索成为可能)”提到了文学作品中圆形人物的流行以及现实主义的影响，空处应进一步说明这种变化的意义，E选项“这显示了文学如何反映不断变化的社会观点。”指出了文学作品与社会观点之间的关联，承接上文，符合语境。故选E。 19题详解】 上文“However, not every character that appears in a story needs to be deep. (然而，并不是故事中出现的每个角色都需要有深度)”提出了一个观点，即并非所有角色都需要有深度，空处应进一步解释这一观点，D选项“如果扁平人物变得圆润，他们可能会‘抢镜’。”说明如果扁平人物被描绘得过于复杂，可能会分散读者对主要角色的注意力，引出下文关于角色抢镜的论述“Imagine the main character is taking a taxi to a hotel. If we make the taxi driver a round character, the focus could shift from the main character to the taxi driver, potentially taking attention away from the main plot.(想象一下，主角正在乘出租车去酒店。如果我们把出租车司机变成一个圆形角色，焦点可能会从主角转移到出租车司机身上，从而可能会转移人们对主要情节的注意力)”，如果扁平人物被描绘得过于复杂，可能会分散读者对主要角色的注意力，D选项承上启下，符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 下文“They together create tension and richness in a literary work. Flat characters provide clarity and focus, simplifying themes and making them accessible to readers. Meanwhile, round characters reveal human complexity, showing life beyond black and white. (它们共同在文学作品中创造张力和丰富性。扁平人物提供清晰和焦点，简化主题，使读者容易理解。同时，圆形人物揭示人性的复杂性，展现黑白之外的生活)”讨论了扁平人物和圆形人物在文学作品中的共同作用，空处应提出一个概括性的观点，A选项“这两种类型的角色都不比另一种好。”说明扁平人物和圆形人物在文学作品中各有其作用，共同创造张力和丰富性，没有优劣之分，强调了两种角色的平衡和互补性。故选A。 第二部分 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。 A surprising new hobby taught me there’s more than one way to be flexible.

Mark looked down at his paint-covered clothes and the paint on the floor. His face turned bright red, and he whispered, “I’m sorry, Mr. Thompson. I was trying to mix the perfect shade of ocean blue for my seascape (海景) painting, but I accidentally knocked over the paint bottle.” The students around him laughed quietly, and Mark felt a lump (肿块) form in his throat. It was the school’s annual art exhibition coming up, and this painting was his entry. Now, not only was his work destroyed, but he had also made a huge mess in the art room. Mr. Thompson sighed, “Clean this up immediately, Mark. And I hope you can fix your painting before the deadline. Remember what we learned about colour theory last week — sometimes unexpected combinations lead to the most beautiful results.” With his head hung low, Mark cleaned the floor. When he finally sat back down to his painting, he realized that most of the blue paint was gone, and the canvas was made dirty. The once-promising seascape now looked like a chaotic mess. Mark bit his lip, his eyes welling up with tears. He glanced around the room, seeing his classmates focused on their nearly-finished masterpieces. Just then, the school bell rang, signalling the end of the art class. Mark slowly packed his things. As he walked out of the art room, the grey sky outside seemed to mirror his mood. A light rain started to fall, and Mark pulled up his hood (风帽), not caring that the raindrops were making dark spots on his already-dirty clothes. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn’t notice his best friend, Alex, walking beside him. “Hey, Mark, what’s wrong?” Alex asked, with an expression of concern on his face. Mark told him everything. “I spent hours trying to get that perfect blue for the ocean waves,” Mark sighed. “Without it, my whole painting is ruined.” Alex patted him on the back and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out. Let’s go to the art supply room and see if there’s any blue paint left.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Upon entering the supply room, Mark’s heart sank as he saw the blue paint shelf was empty. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two days later, Mark stood nervously beside his reborn painting at the exhibition. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Upon entering the supply room, Mark’s heart sank as he saw the blue paint shelf was empty. “Mr. Thompson just restocked other colours yesterday,” Alex pointed to vibrant jars of purple and green. A sudden idea struck Mark. He remembered Mr. Thompson’s lesson about colour blending — blue could be created by mixing green and purple! With trembling hands, he combined the paints, gradually achieving the exact ocean blue hue he’d envisioned. Alex grinned, “You did it!” New energy surged through Mark as he rushed back to his canvas, brushes dancing with renewed determination. Two days later, Mark stood nervously beside his reborn painting at the exhibition. Instead of traditional blue tones, his landscape shimmered with unexpected depth from the blended colours. The art teacher’s eyes widened in recognition. “Creative problem-solving deserves extra credit,” Mr. Thompson announced, placing a golden star sticker on Mark’s work. Across the room, Alex gave a thumbs-up as sunlight broke through the clouds, making the painting’s unique blues glow like real seawater. Mark touched his now paint-free shirt, understanding that mistakes could lead to brighter masterpieces. 【解析】 【导语】本文以马克在美术课上打翻颜料、破坏画作的意外为线索，讲述了他在好友亚历克斯的鼓励下，运用色彩理论重新调配颜料，最终在画展上凭借创新的海景画收获认可，领悟到失误也能催生美好成果的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“走进补给室，马克看到蓝色颜料架上空空如也，心沉了下去。”可知，第一段可描写马克在绝望中想起老师关于色彩混合的教导，尝试用剩余颜料调配出理想的海洋蓝，在好友的鼓励下重燃信心完成画作的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“两天后，马克紧张地站在画展上自己“重生”的画作旁。”可知，第二段可描写画作在展览上因独特的色彩运用获得老师赞赏，阳光与画作交相辉映，马克从中领悟到错误亦可转化为机遇的道理。 2. 续写线索：颜料架空空如也——回忆色彩理论——混合颜料成功——画展紧张等待——老师赞赏认可——领悟失误意义 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①调配：combine/mix/blend ②重燃：surge/rekindle/renew ③认可：recognition/appreciation/approval 情绪类 ①紧张：nervously/anxiously/uneasily ②惊喜：astonishment/surprise/amazement 【点睛】【高分句型1】With trembling hands, he combined the paints, gradually achieving the exact ocean blue hue he’d envisioned.（运用了现在分词短语作状语以及省略关系代词的定语从句修饰名词ocean blue hue） 【高分句型2】Mark touched his now paint-free shirt, understanding that mistakes could lead to brighter masterpieces.（运用了现在分词短语作状语以及that引导的宾语从句作understanding的宾语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 深圳市高级中学高中园2025届高三高考适应性考试 英语 本试卷分为第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分，第Ⅰ卷为21—55题，共65分，第Ⅱ卷为56—67题，共55分。全卷共计120分。考试时间为120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答第一卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号、考试科目用铅笔涂写在答题卡上。 2．每小题选出答案后，用2B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，再涂其它答案，不能答在试题卷上。 3．考试结束，监考人员将答题卡收回。 第Ⅰ卷(本卷共计65分) 第一部分 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 Garden enthusiasts, get ready for an exciting year ahead!

And climbing back to success after nearly being killed in a car accident that left her with several broken bones and a collapsed lung is Ariana Berlin, a gymnast and dancer. These are just a couple of the handful of women highlighted in Room 138 for the “Together We Rise” Disability Awareness Exhibit, which recognizes people with disabilities. Mainly initiated by senior Avari Brocker, president of the All Minds All Bodies Club, the exhibıt focuses on developing a space to raise awareness about visible and invisible disabilities. “As a young child who didn’t know I was disabled and only knew I was struggling, I felt really solitary,” Brocker said. “I felt like I didn’t have a community.” Discovering her disability less than two years ago at 16, Brocker was inspired to find ways she could advocate immediately after being diagnosed with dyslexia(阅读障碍) and ADHD. Since then, she has become involved in the International Dyslexia Association. “Growing up like that made me realize that spreading awareness of disabilities was part of my purpose in life, ” she said. “But everybody needs help and needs a village. Nobody gets anywhere on their own. ” After the exhibit on Friday, March 14, students stayed in their homerooms to watch a video that provided insight towards what the most universal invisible disabilities were at school. ADHD, anxiety disorders, and dyslexia were among the most common according to a study Brocker conducted for her club. “We wanted to give people a window into what it’s like to be neurodivergent(神经分化)” Brocker said. She reflected on how it felt emotionally tiring to have her struggles emphasized at school, noting that sometimes her disability became more apparent in social situations too, but she’s grateful to friends who supported her through the process, like playing a game all together. Between the exhibit and the video, there’s one thing she hopes for students to take away. “Disability doesn’t prevent a person’s ability to do things,” she said. “It also isn’t a weakness to ask for help. ” 4. What does the underlined word “solitary” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Grateful. B. Cheated. C. Respected. D. Lonely. 5. How did Brocker’s personal experiences affect her? A. She started spreading disability awareness. B. She realized the importance of reading. C. She helped launch a dyslexia association. D. She funded people with disabilities. 6. What was the video students watched after the exhibit about? A. Physical disabilities in sports. B. Common disabilities on campus. C. Disabled artists’ attainments. D. Legal rights for disabled students. 7. What message does Brocker hope students will learn? A. Disability defines one’s identity. B. Success requires hiding weaknesses. C. Disability doesn’t mean inability. D. Academic skills outweigh disability. C If you’re digitally skilled, it has likely been a while since you spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of tracing out our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page is becoming a thing of the past in our screen-dominated world, where text messages and thumb-typed grocery lists have replaced handwritten letters and sticky notes. To keep up, many schools are introducing computers as early as preschool, meaning some kids may learn the basics of typing before writing by hand. Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost. Typing pays no attention to the form of the letters — only involving relatively simple and uniform movements. By contrast, handwriting is a complex task. Motor system has to delicately adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter. Adding to the complexity, your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s formed, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to create the letters’ shapes. “This process lets you make your body and what you are seeing mesh (匹配).” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive psychologist at the University of North Carolina, adding “such complexity is crucial to mental development.” Screens and keyboards replacing pen and paper might affect kids’ ability to learn letters, which is actually an important predictor of later reading and math attainment. If young children are not receiving any handwriting training, their brains simply won’t reach their full potential. For adults, typing often results in failing to actually process information. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But often, they’re just typing blindly, failing to make information their own. On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through ideas. Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to capitalize on the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form. 8. What does the author mainly convey in paragraph 1? A. Abandoning handwriting is unwise. B. Digital literacy is ignored nowadays. C. Handwritten communication is out of date. D. Computer courses are unusual in preschools. 9. Why is handwriting considered a complex task? A. It demands high creativity in designing each letter. B. It involves precise finger pressure and visual adjustment. C. It relies entirely on visual processing to shape the letters. D. It requires consistent pressure from the fingers to form letters. 10. What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A. Blind typing contributes to brain development. B. Kids have a preference for screens and keyboards. C. Handwritten markers are good for getting ideas linked. D. Adults have the ability to memorize complex information. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards using digital pens? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Critical. D. Favourable. D What do you do as spring sets in? Taking off your warm winter coat, and putting it away? For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable. Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits. There are more and more white rabbits in the middle of a brown habitat, where the snow has already melted away. This is a problem for them, as they are more easily seen by their natural enemies, giving them a “mismatch” problem. Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies. Some predictions put the rabbits in up to 8 weeks of a white coat in a brown, snowless habitat by the end of this century. This timeline could spell doom for their populations, as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them. Fortunately, scientists have found areas with snowshoe rabbits in colour from white to brown in the same place, meaning the timing of the coat change can be influenced by the environment. Snowshoe rabbits reproduce quickly, and if the colour change timing is passed down then it is possible for rabbits to change coats accordingly. By protecting areas with variable ones, we can give snowshoe rabbits the opportunity to adapt to the changing climate. 12. Why does the author mention humans’ taking off winter coats? A. To imply the cleverness of humans. B. To stress the influence of climate change. C. To lead to the problem of snowshoe rabbits. D. To show the bond between humans and animals. 13. What has made scientists worry about snowshoe rabbits? A. They are active in freezing winter. B. They fail to keep their white colour. C. They can’t get rid of white fur when snow melts. D. They are easily caught by hunters on snowy days. 14. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A. More rabbits will be killed. B. Rabbits’ enemies are stronger. C. The rabbit population will explode. D The rabbits may die out in the near future. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Snowshoe Rabbits: Masters of Coat Change. B. Snowshoe Rabbits: Survivors of Illegal Hunting. C. Snowshoe Rabbits: Victims of Climate Mismatch. D. Snowshoe Rabbits: Witnesses of Natural Selection. 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。 In literature, flat and round characters offer distinct approaches to character development. Flat characters are defined by a singular symbolic characteristic. ____16____ For example, the evil stepmothers in traditional fairy tales are flat characters, serving to drive the story with their simplicity. By contrast, Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber exemplifies (举例说明) round characters, defined by inner conflicts, contradictions, and personal growth. ____17____ They reflect the unpredictability of humanity, making them more relatable and dynamic to readers. In earlier literary works, flat characters often symbolized heroic ideals, such as the brave heroes in The Odyssey. As society moves away from idealized heroes, literature focuses more on characters’ personal struggles, reflecting how writers began to see humanity in a more complex way. With the rise of realism in the 19th century, round characters gained popularity, as seen in Jane Eyre, which allowed for the exploration of personal identity and internal conflict. ____18____ However, not every character that appears in a story needs to be deep. ____19____ Imagine the main character is taking a taxi to a hotel. If we make the taxi driver a round character, the focus could shift from the main character to the taxi driver, potentially taking attention away from the main plot. ____20____ They together create tension and richness in a literary work. Flat characters provide clarity and focus, simplifying themes and making them accessible to readers. Meanwhile, round characters reveal human complexity, showing life beyond black and white. A. Neither type of characters is better than the other. B. Such characters stand out for complexity and depth. C. We don’t get heartfelt backstory to enrich their roles. D. If flat characters are round, they may “steal the show”. E. This shows how literature reflects evolving social views. F. Round characters are more engaging than flat characters. G. They are more like a spotlight, drawing attention to one aspect. 第二部分 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。 A surprising new hobby taught me there’s more than one way to be flexible.

At the Science Museum’s amazing exhibition, a tall mechanical clock ____36____ a spire (尖顶) and a four-faced base catches the eye. This is a “zimingzhong,” or “self-striking bell,” a type of clock collected by Chinese emperors. Twenty-three such clocks, borrowed from Beijing’s Palace Museum ____37____ shown in Britain for the first time, are now on display in South Kensington. In the 18th century, British merchants eager for Chinese silk and tea decided to promote their country’s clockmakers. Skilled clockmakers like James Cox ____38____ (know) how to make luxury clocks with complex parts that could ring and move.

These clocks were meant to surprise: one has lotus petals (花瓣) that can open ____42____ (show) tiny figures inside. ____43____ (sad), because they are so old and delicate, the zimingzhong at the Science Museum must remain silent and still.

Mark looked down at his paint-covered clothes and the paint on the floor. His face turned bright red, and he whispered, “I’m sorry, Mr. Thompson. I was trying to mix the perfect shade of ocean blue for my seascape (海景) painting, but I accidentally knocked over the paint bottle.” The students around him laughed quietly, and Mark felt a lump (肿块) form in his throat. It was the school’s annual art exhibition coming up, and this painting was his entry. Now, not only was his work destroyed, but he had also made a huge mess in the art room. Mr. Thompson sighed, “Clean this up immediately, Mark. And I hope you can fix your painting before the deadline. Remember what we learned about colour theory last week — sometimes unexpected combinations lead to the most beautiful results.” With his head hung low, Mark cleaned the floor. When he finally sat back down to his painting, he realized that most of the blue paint was gone, and the canvas was made dirty. The once-promising seascape now looked like a chaotic mess. Mark bit his lip, his eyes welling up with tears. He glanced around the room, seeing his classmates focused on their nearly-finished masterpieces. Just then, the school bell rang, signalling the end of the art class. Mark slowly packed his things. As he walked out of the art room, the grey sky outside seemed to mirror his mood. A light rain started to fall, and Mark pulled up his hood (风帽), not caring that the raindrops were making dark spots on his already-dirty clothes. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn’t notice his best friend, Alex, walking beside him. “Hey, Mark, what’s wrong?” Alex asked, with an expression of concern on his face. Mark told him everything. “I spent hours trying to get that perfect blue for the ocean waves,” Mark sighed. “Without it, my whole painting is ruined.” Alex patted him on the back and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out. Let’s go to the art supply room and see if there’s any blue paint left.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Upon entering the supply room, Mark’s heart sank as he saw the blue paint shelf was empty. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two days later, Mark stood nervously beside his reborn painting at the exhibition. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
