As a company created by the Marley family to carry on Bob Marley’s love for both music and the planet, the company creates attractive and timeless products that are good for the earth. Today we tried out a new type of over-ear headphone which you could get with high quality at a really fair price. Battery Offering 32 hours of playback with noise canceling turned off, and 26 hours turned on, the headphones will get you through several days of listening to good music without charging (充电) the batteries. You can use them longer if you put them on airplane mode. And the quick-charge technology will allow you to enjoy a two-hour playback after just 15 minutes of charging. Sound The most important thing here is the sound. It has a lot of sound quality for you to choose from, with clear sound that will sound great on a classical track. You can also design the sound to your liking on the app. Material Made of wood and reusable aluminum (铝), the headphones weigh quite a bit but it’s not to say that they’re uncomfortable. The special ear pads (衬垫) fit around the ears closely, and the underside of the headband also has lots of soft pads so you can’t feel uncomfortable even afterhours of listening. Costs: RRP £199. If over-ear headphones aren’t your thing, you can’t go wrong with our other excellent products. 21．Which of the following can best describe the products of House of Marley? A．Beautiful. B．Traditional. C．World-famous. D．Environmentally friendly. 22．What is special about the new type of headphone? A．It has long battery life. B．It works best in airplane mode. C．It can be fully charged in 15 minutes. D．It can recognize environmental noise easily. 23．Why are there many soft pads? A．To make the headphones unbreakable. B．To make the headphones look beautiful. C．To make people feel physically comfortable. D．To improve the sound quality of headphones. B I grew up in the slums (贫民窟) of Quezon City, the youngest of four siblings. At a very young age, I witnessed the realities of poverty. When I was three, my parents discovered my talent for art. By five, my skills were further developed when I received a sponsorship from UNICEF. That was my first dot, where I realized that creativity could play a big role in my future. Despite my passion for art, financial situation kept me from pursuing my dream of becoming an architect or working in advertising or animation. Instead, I enrolled in Business Administration, majoring in Marketing in a university. It was a practical choice—one that would later prove valuable. After graduation, I took short courses in graphic design, balancing my education with work to support myself. At 28, I started a small marketing agency with no fund; competing with larger firms was hard, so I eventually closed the agency to pursue a full-time marketing career in IT. I poured my heart into carrying out every marketing plan. My dedication earned me recognition and respect, but after four years, I was suddenly dismissed. Despite my frustration, I reminded myself of Steve Jobs’ words: “You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” Losing my job was not the end—it was a new beginning. I therefore decided to complete my MBA studies and had a chance to be an exchange student abroad and reinvested in my passion by relaunching my marketing agency. In time, it boomed, securing multinational clients through relationships I had developed over the years. Despite the financial struggles and moments of near-depression, I never gave up. Like Steve Jobs said, “we may not always see how the dots connect at the moment, but when we look back, we realize they form a masterpiece.” 24．Why did the author choose to major in Marketing instead of art? A．Marketing was her dream. B．She lost her interest in art. C．Finances limited her choices. D．Her parents advised against art. 25．What does the term “dot” most likely symbolize? A．Great financial progress. B．Significant turning points. C．Individual achievements. D．Educational qualifications. 26．What was the author’s response to her unemployment? A．She abandoned her major. B．She embraced adaptability. C．She blamed external factors. D．She prioritized making money. 27．Why does the author quote Steve Jobs twice? A．To emphasize a core theme. B．To introduce a new concept. C．To contrast their experiences. D．To criticize corporate culture. C Facing high employee turnover and an aging population, nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks, but few researchers have explored how these technologies impact workers and the quality of care. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employee retention (保留) and a higher quality of care. Researchers drew on surveys of Japanese nursing homes taken in 2020 and 2022. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future would be like elsewhere a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” said Yong Suk Lee, one of the researchers. “We need to be ready for this new reality.” “We’ve found that robot adoption reduces quit rates by assisting care workers,” Lee said. “This is important because turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Patients also benefited in facilities that used robots, according to the study. The nursing homes that Lee’s team studied reported a decrease in the use of patient restraints (束缚) and in the bedsores that nursing home residents commonly suffer, largely because of a lack of mobility. “By removing the physical pressure associated with certain tasks, robots may have made room for care workers to focus on tasks better suited for human beings, such as those involving human touch,” Lee said. “Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.” This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully address the challenges of caring for aging populations. It will help inform the work of the long-term care industry and help us better understand how technologies impact workers and patients. 28．What made the researchers focus on Japan? A．Its harmonious society. B．Its stable employment. C．Its varied types of robots. D．Its large aging population. 29．Which of the following shows Lee’s opinion? A．Care workers’ salaries will increase significantly. B．Robots can cooperate very well with care workers. C．The use of patient restraints should be multiplied. D．Robot use isn’t associated with employee retention. 30．What does the author say about the new research? A．It is valuable. B．It needs improving. C．It isn’t a pioneering study. D．It challenges the care industry. 31．In which section of a newspaper is this text most likely to be found? A．Culture. B．Sports. C．Politics. D．Technology. D We all carry some secrets that we would rather not share with the people around us. In much the same way that we may only invite visitors into the “good rooms” of our house while the rest is an absolute tip, we often hide the chaos of our personal lives behind a polished front. This may be a serious mistake, since it’s precisely those vulnerabilities that can offer rich opportunities to bond with the people around us. This is sometimes known as the “beautiful mess effect”. Researches in social psychology indicate that the beautiful mess effect is a common phenomenon. We tend to be overly fearful of negative reactions to our flaws and failures, while underestimating how much people will appreciate our honesty or courage. In general, others’ perceptions of our vulnerabilities are far more positive than we imagine. Researchers asked Princeton students to imagine picking a few statements that might represent their inner life to a stranger. Some were asked to select from a list of weaknesses — like a bad temper, impulsivity, and closed-mindedness. Others were asked to pick statements from a list of strengths, such as patience, perseverance and open-mindedness. Once again, the participants were told that these statements would then be shown to another student, and were asked to predict how much that person would like them. On average, the students picking the weakness assumed they would be liked less than those choosing the strengths. But the perceptions were generally much better than they’d expected. In fact, those reading the profiles gave slightly higher ratings to someone listing their bad points. Experiments have shown the beautiful mess effect applies in all kinds of contexts. Leaders who admit to a potentially embarrassing weakness — such as anxiety about public speaking, or a fear of flying — score more highly on ratings of authenticity and inspire greater loyalty. In today’s digitally polished world, acknowledging your vulnerabilities can seem especially difficult. But if you can calm your inner critic and recognize that insecurity, disappointment and frustration are universal human experiences, you will find it far easier to share your perceived flaws with others. Rather than isolating us, the things that cause us shame are often a sign of our humanity, and a source of intimacy and connection. 32．What does the underlined word “tip” in the first paragraph probably mean? A．A useful piece of advice. B．The pointed end of something. C．A state of being untidy or disorderly. D．A small amount of money for a service. 33．What did the Princeton students’ experiment show? A．People find sharing flaws with strangers surprisingly easy. B．People always value those who openly display strengths. C．Others perceive vulnerabilities more positively than we assume. D．Students revealing weaknesses were less liked than strengths-focused. 34．What can we infer from the passage about leaders? A．Leaders should never show any weakness. B．Showing weaknesses can make leaders more popular. C．Leaders who admit weaknesses are not authentic enough. D．Leaders’ weaknesses will definitely lead to a loss of loyalty. 35．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Fear of Negative Reactions B．The Importance of Hiding Our Flaws C．How to Make Friends in the Digital World D．Your Weakness makes You More Beautiful 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Take a moment to notice any sensations in your body right now. 36 Does your mind seem busy with thoughts, or is it focused on what you’re reading? These are all signals telling how you feel. Where do feelings come from? 37 Finding humor or joy in life’s moments often brings a smile to our faces. Our breathing becomes shallow in response to our fear. When someone jumps and surprises us, our throat or chest might tighten. Feelings are important because they give hints (提示) about what you need. If you’re angry, it might mean something is unfair and you need help to fix it. If you’re sad, this could mean you need comforting or time to be healed. 38 It can help you to talk about what you feel, which can make it easier to get the help you might need to figure things out and move on. In the film Inside Out 2, the characters in 13-year-old Riley’s brain represent her emotions. They each take over her brain as she goes through big life changes. 39 Therefore, we see Joy, Fear and Sadness show up when Riley goes to a new high school and when she worries about losing her friends. Riley learns to understand that all emotions are normal, and that they are all important. Emotions don’t last forever - they come and go. Try to make it a habit to notice your emotions. In doing so, we won’t let emotions take over. 40 A．Many factors can have an impact on it. B．We can say emotions act as messengers, C．Should we notice how our brain and body connect? D．They start in our brains and also exist in our bodies. E．Is your breathing fast or slow or somewhere in between? F．This will help us stay calm and support our personal growth. G．The ability to name your feelings is emotional awareness. 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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I always loved art. From the moment I could hold a crayon (蜡笔), I was drawing, painting, and creating. But as I grew older, I was told it wasn’t a(n) “ 41 ” career. So, I studied business instead. For years, I followed the safe path strictly. I got a degree, landed a stable job, and got 42 . But deep down, I felt like something was deeply 43 . I would come home from work 44 tired, staring at blank canvases (画布) in the corner of my room, wondering what could have been. One day, I decided to take a 45 .

That small 49 changed everything, I began to dedicate more time to my art, 50 with new techniques and styles. 51 , I started sharing my work online, and to my surprise, people loved it. Encouraged by their support, I took an even bigger leap: I quit my job and 52 my own art studio. Now, I spend my days doing what I love — creating art and teaching others to embrace (拥抱) their 53 . That decision taught me that following your passion is never a mistake. One thing I’ve learned is: the scariest risks often 54 the most rewarding journeys. Don’t let fear hold you back from pursuing what sets your 55 on fire. 41．A．contradictory B．practical C．ambitious D．specific 42．A．recovered B．stimulated C．promoted D．overlooked 43．A．missing B．challenging C．damaging D．occurring 44．A．completely B．accidentally C．precisely D．repeatedly 45．A．schedule B．proposal C．break D．risk 46．A．inspiring B．frightening C．annoying D．astonishing 47．A．dominate B．cooperate C．succeed D．negotiate 48．A．progress B．mission C．tension D．freedom 49．A．step B．measure C．coverage D．trick 50．A．experimenting B．charging C．comparing D．identifying 51．A．Silently B．Gradually C．Unnaturally D．Ultimately 52．A．decorated B．rented C．established D．announced 53．A．perspective B．confidence C．description D．creativity 54．A．set down B．lead to C．carry out D．go through 55．A．fortune B．courage C．soul D．motivation 第二节：语法填空 (10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) DeepSeek is an outstanding AI start-up based in Hangzhou, China, 56 has been making waves in the global AI landscape. It has developed a series of 57 (remark) AI models that are not only powerful but also cost-effective. For instance, DeepSeek has released models like DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1. 58 former, with 671 billion parameters, can handle tasks such as coding, translation, and essay/ email generation. DeepSeek-R1, a reasoning model, is designed to compete with some of OpenAI’s models. 59 makes DeepSeek stand out is its use of older-generation hardware like NVIDIA’s H800 chips. This 60 (result) in a significantly lower training cost. While training a model like OpenAI’s GPT4 may cost around $100million, DeepSeek can achieve a similar 61 (perform) with a training cost of less than $6 million. In addition, DeepSeek’s models are accessible at a much 62 (low) price point. Its subscription cost starts at $0.50 per month, 63 (compare) to OpenAI’s ChatGPT which charges $20 per month. This affordability allows people with budget restrictions 64 (access) advanced AI services. Although like any new technology, DeepSeek also faces some challenges, it is undoubtedly a rising star 65 the field of AI, and its future development is worth following closely. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 66．假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Jack非常喜欢中国茶文化。近期你市文化馆（the Cultural Center）将举办中国茶文化展。请写一封信告知Jack这一消息。内容包括： 1. 时间和地点；2. 展览内容。 注意：1. 词数80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Jack, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分 25 分) 67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 When my daughter turned seven, she asked about my job. “I teach adults to draw at a college,” I explained. Her eyes widened. “But ... why do they need to learn? Did they forget how?” The question cut through me. Children use crayons like magic sticks. That week, she drew a “Mars Palace” where astronaut-princesses rode rainbow rockets. I once dreamed too big. At twelve, I trained daily to be a tennis champion, racket (球拍) making shiny lines in summer sun. At sixteen, I filled notebooks with drawings—spaceships flying through space holes, heroes saving cities with paint. But adulthood threw those dreams into neat, dusty boxes labeled “Childish Things.” “Be practical,” I told myself when choosing a business degree. “Art doesn’t pay bills.” Yet late at night, I saw my younger self in the mirror—a ghost holding empty drawing-books. One October afternoon, everything changed. My daughter begged to explore the store room. Beneath old bags, we found a box, inside which lay my teenage treasures: a tennis ticket piece, a ribbon from a school art fair, and most amazingly, a drawing book. Its pages were full of crazy ideas — trees with magic fruits, trains under ocean waves. “Mom!” she gasped, touching a lion with wings I drew when I was her age, “Why stop believing these?” That night, I sat in front of a blank canvas (画布). The moonlight shone on my hands. The lion’s eyes in my old drawing seemed to ask me, “When did you stop dreaming?” Suddenly, I realized I had stopped myself by always needing a clear plan before I let myself dream. The next morning, I bought new paints. I didn’t paint normal things like trees or houses. I used bright purples and golds. My daughter danced around me, using her fingers to make clouds. We painted dogs doing math and dinosaurs growing flowers. For the first time in twenty years, I felt free again. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Three months later, the community announced a painting contest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the award ceremony, a silver-haired judge approached me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第7页（共8页） 试题 第8页（共8页） 试题 第5页（共8页） 试题 第6页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高一下学期期末模拟卷（外研版2019） 英 语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 考生注意： 1．答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 3．测试范围：必修二~必修三（外研版 2019）。 4．难度系数：0.65。 5．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） 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.

C 【原文】 M: My dear students, in today’s lesson, we’ll learn about a traditional Chinese dish: Eight Treasure Porridge, also called Laba Porridge because it’s usually served on the Laba Festival. The process of making Laba Porridge is quite complex. Before cooking, you’re supposed to wash the ingredients carefully. This is an important preparation step as it ensures the quality of the dish. Then you need to put the ingredients into a pot and cook them slowly. Cook over a medium-high heat until the porridge comes to the boil. Then turn down the heat. When the porridge is ready, it can be served plain, but I usually add some sugar to make it tastier. Different people may add different ingredients like whole grain rice, red beans, pumpkin, and dried fruits to the pot, but people in my hometown especially like to add sweet potatoes. One key reason is that sweet potatoes are abundant in our area during the winter. Although Laba Porridge is incredibly delicious, it is recommended to consume it in small amounts due to its high calorie content. And people with a weight problem should pay particular attention to controlling their intake. That’s all for my introduction. If you’ re interested in the dish, try to cook with your parents on this year’s Laba Festival. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分 50 分） 第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A If you’re looking for new headphones (头戴式耳机) and want to try something different, House of Marley could be a good choice for you. As a company created by the Marley family to carry on Bob Marley’s love for both music and the planet, the company creates attractive and timeless products that are good for the earth. Today we tried out a new type of over-ear headphone which you could get with high quality at a really fair price. Battery Offering 32 hours of playback with noise canceling turned off, and 26 hours turned on, the headphones will get you through several days of listening to good music without charging (充电) the batteries. You can use them longer if you put them on airplane mode. And the quick-charge technology will allow you to enjoy a two-hour playback after just 15 minutes of charging. Sound The most important thing here is the sound. It has a lot of sound quality for you to choose from, with clear sound that will sound great on a classical track. You can also design the sound to your liking on the app. Material Made of wood and reusable aluminum (铝), the headphones weigh quite a bit but it’s not to say that they’re uncomfortable. The special ear pads (衬垫) fit around the ears closely, and the underside of the headband also has lots of soft pads so you can’t feel uncomfortable even afterhours of listening. Costs: RRP £199.

At a very young age, I witnessed the realities of poverty. When I was three, my parents discovered my talent for art. By five, my skills were further developed when I received a sponsorship from UNICEF. That was my first dot, where I realized that creativity could play a big role in my future. Despite my passion for art, financial situation kept me from pursuing my dream of becoming an architect or working in advertising or animation. Instead, I enrolled in Business Administration, majoring in Marketing in a university. It was a practical choice—one that would later prove valuable. After graduation, I took short courses in graphic design, balancing my education with work to support myself. At 28, I started a small marketing agency with no fund; competing with larger firms was hard, so I eventually closed the agency to pursue a full-time marketing career in IT. I poured my heart into carrying out every marketing plan. My dedication earned me recognition and respect, but after four years, I was suddenly dismissed. Despite my frustration, I reminded myself of Steve Jobs’ words: “You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” Losing my job was not the end—it was a new beginning. I therefore decided to complete my MBA studies and had a chance to be an exchange student abroad and reinvested in my passion by relaunching my marketing agency. In time, it boomed, securing multinational clients through relationships I had developed over the years. Despite the financial struggles and moments of near-depression, I never gave up. Like Steve Jobs said, “we may not always see how the dots connect at the moment, but when we look back, we realize they form a masterpiece.” 24．Why did the author choose to major in Marketing instead of art? A．Marketing was her dream. B．She lost her interest in art. C．Finances limited her choices. D．Her parents advised against art. 25．What does the term “dot” most likely symbolize? A．Great financial progress. B．Significant turning points. C．Individual achievements. D．Educational qualifications. 26．What was the author’s response to her unemployment? A．She abandoned her major. B．She embraced adaptability. C．She blamed external factors. D．She prioritized making money. 27．Why does the author quote Steve Jobs twice? A．To emphasize a core theme. B．To introduce a new concept. C．To contrast their experiences. D．To criticize corporate culture. 【答案】24．C 25．B 26．B 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在贫民窟长大，虽自幼展现出艺术天赋，但因经济原因选择学习市场营销专业。毕业后在工作中经历挫折，被解雇后，作者以史蒂夫・乔布斯的话激励自己，积极做出改变，完成 MBA 学习，重新经营营销机构并取得成功。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段“Despite my passion for art, financial situation kept me from pursuing my dream of becoming an architect or working in advertising or animation. Instead, I enrolled in Business Administration, majoring in Marketing in a university.(尽管我对艺术充满热情，但经济状况使我无法追求成为建筑师或在广告、动画领域工作的梦想。相反，我在大学注册学习工商管理，主修市场营销)” 可知，作者选择主修市场营销而非艺术，是因为经济状况限制了她的选择。故选C。 25．推理判断题。根据第一段 “That was my first dot, where I realized that creativity could play a big role in my future.(那是我的第一个‘点’，在那里我意识到创造力在我未来可能发挥重要作用)” 以及最后一段 “we may not always see how the dots connect at the moment, but when we look back, we realize they form a masterpiece.(我们可能此刻并不总是能看到这些‘点’是如何连接的，但当我们回首往事时，我们意识到它们构成了一幅杰作)” 可知，“dot” 象征着人生中重要的转折点，这些点在人生历程中相互连接，构成人生的画卷。故选B。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段“Losing my job was not the end—it was a new beginning. I therefore decided to complete my MBA studies and had a chance to be an exchange student abroad and reinvested in my passion by relaunching my marketing agency.(失业不是终点 —— 而是一个新的开始。因此，我决定完成我的工商管理硕士学习，并有机会作为交换生出国，通过重新推出我的营销机构，重新投入到我热爱的事业中)” 可知，作者失业后积极做出改变，展现出适应性。故选B。 27．推理判断题 。 作者第一次引用史蒂夫・乔布斯的话是在被解雇后，用来激励自己相信挫折后的经历会在未来相互关联；第二次引用是在回顾经历时，再次强调人生中的各种经历就像 “点”，最终会构成精彩的人生。两次引用都是为了强调人生经历的关联性和重要性这一核心主题。故选A。 C Facing high employee turnover and an aging population, nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks, but few researchers have explored how these technologies impact workers and the quality of care. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employee retention (保留) and a higher quality of care. Researchers drew on surveys of Japanese nursing homes taken in 2020 and 2022. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future would be like elsewhere a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” said Yong Suk Lee, one of the researchers. “We need to be ready for this new reality.” “We’ve found that robot adoption reduces quit rates by assisting care workers,” Lee said. “This is important because turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Patients also benefited in facilities that used robots, according to the study. The nursing homes that Lee’s team studied reported a decrease in the use of patient restraints (束缚) and in the bedsores that nursing home residents commonly suffer, largely because of a lack of mobility. “By removing the physical pressure associated with certain tasks, robots may have made room for care workers to focus on tasks better suited for human beings, such as those involving human touch,” Lee said. “Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.” This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully address the challenges of caring for aging populations. It will help inform the work of the long-term care industry and help us better understand how technologies impact workers and patients. 28．What made the researchers focus on Japan? A．Its harmonious society. B．Its stable employment. C．Its varied types of robots. D．Its large aging population. 29．Which of the following shows Lee’s opinion? A．Care workers’ salaries will increase significantly. B．Robots can cooperate very well with care workers. C．The use of patient restraints should be multiplied. D．Robot use isn’t associated with employee retention. 30．What does the author say about the new research? A．It is valuable. B．It needs improving. C．It isn’t a pioneering study. D．It challenges the care industry. 31．In which section of a newspaper is this text most likely to be found? A．Culture. B．Sports. C．Politics. D．Technology. 【答案】28．D 29．B 30．A 31．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了面对高员工流动率和人口老龄化，养老院越来越多地转向机器人来完成各种护理任务，但很少有研究人员探索这些技术如何影响工人和护理质量。圣母大学（University of Notre Dame）一位研究未来工作的专家的一项新研究发现，机器人的使用与员工保留率的提高和护理质量的提高有关。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段中““Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future would be like elsewhere a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” said Yong Suk Lee, one of the researchers. ( ‘我们的研究重点是日本，因为它是一个超级老龄化社会，为其他地方的未来提供了一个很好的例子：人口减少，老年人比例上升，工作年龄人口比例下降。’研究人员之一Yong Suk Lee说。)”可知，研究人员关注日本是因为因为其庞大的老年人口。故选D项。 29．推理判断题。根据第三段中““We’ve found that robot adoption reduces quit rates by assisting care workers,” Lee said.( 李说：‘我们发现机器人的应用通过帮助护理人员降低了离职率。’)”以及第五段中““By removing the physical pressure associated with certain tasks, robots may have made room for care workers to focus on tasks better suited for human beings, such as those involving human touch,” Lee said.(李说：‘通过消除某些任务带来的体力压力，机器人可能为护理人员腾出了空间，使其能够专注于更适合人类的任务，比如那些需要人际接触的工作。’)”可推知，在李看来，机器人可以很好地与护理人员合作。故选B项。 30．推理判断题。根据最后一段“This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully address the challenges of caring for aging populations. It will help inform the work of the long-term care industry and help us better understand how technologies impact workers and patients.( 这项研究为社会如何成功应对照顾老龄化人口的挑战提供了重要的见解。这将有助于为长期护理行业的工作提供信息，并帮助我们更好地了解技术如何影响工作人员和患者。)”可推知，作者认为这项研究是很有价值的。故选A项。 31．推理判断题。根据第一段中“A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employee retention (保留) and a higher quality of care.(圣母大学（University of Notre Dame）一位研究未来工作的专家的一项新研究发现，机器人的使用与员工保留率的提高和护理质量的提高有关。)”并结合全文内容可知，文章围绕机器人技术在养老院的应用及其对护理人员和患者的影响展开，属于科技与社会结合的话题，最可能出现在报纸的“科技”板块。故选D项。 D We all carry some secrets that we would rather not share with the people around us. In much the same way that we may only invite visitors into the “good rooms” of our house while the rest is an absolute tip, we often hide the chaos of our personal lives behind a polished front. This may be a serious mistake, since it’s precisely those vulnerabilities that can offer rich opportunities to bond with the people around us. This is sometimes known as the “beautiful mess effect”. Researches in social psychology indicate that the beautiful mess effect is a common phenomenon. We tend to be overly fearful of negative reactions to our flaws and failures, while underestimating how much people will appreciate our honesty or courage. In general, others’ perceptions of our vulnerabilities are far more positive than we imagine. Researchers asked Princeton students to imagine picking a few statements that might represent their inner life to a stranger. Some were asked to select from a list of weaknesses — like a bad temper, impulsivity, and closed-mindedness. Others were asked to pick statements from a list of strengths, such as patience, perseverance and open-mindedness. Once again, the participants were told that these statements would then be shown to another student, and were asked to predict how much that person would like them. On average, the students picking the weakness assumed they would be liked less than those choosing the strengths. But the perceptions were generally much better than they’d expected. In fact, those reading the profiles gave slightly higher ratings to someone listing their bad points. Experiments have shown the beautiful mess effect applies in all kinds of contexts. Leaders who admit to a potentially embarrassing weakness — such as anxiety about public speaking, or a fear of flying — score more highly on ratings of authenticity and inspire greater loyalty. In today’s digitally polished world, acknowledging your vulnerabilities can seem especially difficult. But if you can calm your inner critic and recognize that insecurity, disappointment and frustration are universal human experiences, you will find it far easier to share your perceived flaws with others. Rather than isolating us, the things that cause us shame are often a sign of our humanity, and a source of intimacy and connection. 32．What does the underlined word “tip” in the first paragraph probably mean? A．A useful piece of advice. B．The pointed end of something. C．A state of being untidy or disorderly. D．A small amount of money for a service. 33．What did the Princeton students’ experiment show? A．People find sharing flaws with strangers surprisingly easy. B．People always value those who openly display strengths. C．Others perceive vulnerabilities more positively than we assume. D．Students revealing weaknesses were less liked than strengths-focused. 34．What can we infer from the passage about leaders? A．Leaders should never show any weakness. B．Showing weaknesses can make leaders more popular. C．Leaders who admit weaknesses are not authentic enough. D．Leaders’ weaknesses will definitely lead to a loss of loyalty. 35．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Fear of Negative Reactions B．The Importance of Hiding Our Flaws C．How to Make Friends in the Digital World D．Your Weakness makes You More Beautiful 【答案】32．C 33．C 34．B 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们在社交中往往隐藏自己的弱点与不足，倾向于展示光鲜的一面，然而研究表明，适当展示脆弱性（即所谓的“美丽的混乱效应”）能够增进人际关系，提升他人对自己的好感与信任。文章通过实验证据和实际案例，阐述了承认并分享弱点在人际交往中的积极作用，鼓励人们放下防备，以更真实、更人性化的方式与他人建立联系。 32．词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“we often hide the chaos of our personal lives behind a polished front. (我们常常把自己混乱的个人生活隐藏在光鲜的外表之下)”可知，我们通常会把个人生活中的混乱隐藏在光鲜的外表下，结合while表示对比，可推测出“tip”所在句“In much the same way that we may only invite visitors into the “good rooms” of our house while the rest is an absolute tip (就像我们可能只邀请客人进入我们房子的“好房间”，而其余的房间则完全是个tip)”中，while前后形成对比，即我们可能只邀请客人进入我们房子的“好房间”，而其余的房间则完全是杂乱无章的。因此，tip的意思是“杂乱无章的状态”。故选C项。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段中“On average, the students picking the weakness assumed they would be liked less than those choosing the strengths. But the perceptions were generally much better than they’d expected. In fact, those reading the profiles gave slightly higher ratings to someone listing their bad points. (平均而言，选择弱点的学生认为自己比选择优点的学生更不受欢迎。但人们的看法通常比他们预期的要好得多。事实上，那些阅读个人资料的人对列出自己缺点的人的评价略高)”可知，普林斯顿学生的实验表明，其他人对弱点的看法比我们想象的要积极。故选C项。 34．推理判断题。根据第四段“Experiments have shown the beautiful mess effect applies in all kinds of contexts. Leaders who admit to a potentially embarrassing weakness — such as anxiety about public speaking, or a fear of flying — score more highly on ratings of authenticity and inspire greater loyalty. (实验表明，美丽的混乱效应适用于各种情况。那些承认自己有潜在尴尬弱点的领导者 —— 比如对公开演讲的焦虑，或者对飞行的恐惧 —— 在真实性评分上得分更高，并激发了更大的忠诚度)”可推知，领导者表现出弱点可以使领导者更受欢迎。故选B项。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“This may be a serious mistake, since it’s precisely those vulnerabilities that can offer rich opportunities to bond with the people around us. This is sometimes known as the “beautiful mess effect”. (这可能是一个严重的错误，因为正是这些弱点可以为我们提供与周围人建立联系的机会。这有时被称为“美丽的混乱效应”)”可知，文章主要讨论了展示自己的弱点和脆弱性可以增进与他人的联系，这种效应被称为“美丽的混乱效应”。由此可知，D项“Your Weakness makes You More Beautiful (你的弱点让你更美丽)”最适合作为文章标题。故选D项。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Take a moment to notice any sensations in your body right now. 36 Does your mind seem busy with thoughts, or is it focused on what you’re reading? These are all signals telling how you feel. Where do feelings come from? 37 Finding humor or joy in life’s moments often brings a smile to our faces. Our breathing becomes shallow in response to our fear. When someone jumps and surprises us, our throat or chest might tighten. Feelings are important because they give hints (提示) about what you need. If you’re angry, it might mean something is unfair and you need help to fix it. If you’re sad, this could mean you need comforting or time to be healed. 38 It can help you to talk about what you feel, which can make it easier to get the help you might need to figure things out and move on. In the film Inside Out 2, the characters in 13-year-old Riley’s brain represent her emotions. They each take over her brain as she goes through big life changes. 39 Therefore, we see Joy, Fear and Sadness show up when Riley goes to a new high school and when she worries about losing her friends. Riley learns to understand that all emotions are normal, and that they are all important. Emotions don’t last forever - they come and go. Try to make it a habit to notice your emotions. In doing so, we won’t let emotions take over. 40 A．Many factors can have an impact on it. B．We can say emotions act as messengers, C．Should we notice how our brain and body connect? D．They start in our brains and also exist in our bodies. E．Is your breathing fast or slow or somewhere in between? F．This will help us stay calm and support our personal growth. G．The ability to name your feelings is emotional awareness. 【答案】36．E 37．D 38．G 39．B 40．F 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了情绪的来源、重要性以及如何通过感知情绪来促进个人成长。 36．根据上文“Take a moment to notice any sensations in your body right now.(花点时间注意一下你现在身体的任何感觉。)”以及下文“Does your mind seem busy with thoughts, or is it focused on what you’re reading?(你的大脑是忙于思考，还是专注于你正在阅读的内容？)”可知，上下文都在描述身体和大脑的某种状态，所以空白处应描述身体或大脑的另一种状态，以保持话题的一致性。故E选项“你的呼吸是快还是慢，还是介于两者之间?”描述了呼吸的状态，符合语境。故选E。 37．根据上文“Where do feelings come from?(感情从何而来？)”可知，空处回答上文问题，指出感情来自哪里。故D选项“它们始于我们的大脑，也存在于我们的身体中”符合语境，故选D。 38．根据上文“ If you’re angry, it might mean something is unfair and you need help to fix it. If you’re sad, this could mean you need comforting or time to be healed. (如果你生气，这可能意味着有些事情不公平，你需要帮助来解决它。如果你感到悲伤，这可能意味着你需要安慰或时间来治愈。)”可知，上文提到了某些感情的认知，故G选项“给你的感觉命名的能力就是情感意识”符合语境，语上文逻辑相关。故选G。 39．根据上文“In the film Inside Out 2, the characters in 13-year-old Riley’s brain represent her emotions. They each take over her brain as she goes through big life changes.(在电影《头脑特工队2》中，13岁的莱利大脑中的角色代表了她的情绪。当她经历重大的人生变化时，它们各自控制着她的大脑)”以及下文“Therefore, we see Joy, Fear and Sadness show up when Riley goes to a new high school and when she worries about losing her friends.(因此，当莱利进入一所新高中，担心失去朋友时，我们会看到快乐、恐惧和悲伤)”可知，上文提到电影中角色代表了莱利的情绪，下文则提到莱利进入新高中时会出现的情绪，由此可知，空处是在说明情绪的作用。故B选项“我们可以说情绪就像信使”符合语境，故选B。 40．根据上文“Emotions don’t last forever — they come and go. Try to make it a habit to notice your emotions. In doing so, we won’t let emotions take over.(情绪不会永远持续下去——它们来了又走。试着养成关注自己情绪的习惯。这样做，我们就不会让情绪控制我们)”可知，上文提到养成关注自己情绪的习惯，这样就不会被情绪控制，空处为本段最后一句，应说明这么做的好处。故F选项“这将帮助我们保持冷静，支持我们的个人成长”符合语境，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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I always loved art. From the moment I could hold a crayon (蜡笔), I was drawing, painting, and creating. But as I grew older, I was told it wasn’t a(n) “ 41 ” career. So, I studied business instead. For years, I followed the safe path strictly. I got a degree, landed a stable job, and got 42 . But deep down, I felt like something was deeply 43 . I would come home from work 44 tired, staring at blank canvases (画布) in the corner of my room, wondering what could have been. One day, I decided to take a 45 . I signed up for an art class and started painting again. At first, it was 46 . I worried about what people would think and if I could even 47 . But with every brushstroke, I felt a sense of 48 I hadn’t experienced in years. That small 49 changed everything, I began to dedicate more time to my art, 50 with new techniques and styles. 51 , I started sharing my work online, and to my surprise, people loved it. Encouraged by their support, I took an even bigger leap: I quit my job and 52 my own art studio. Now, I spend my days doing what I love — creating art and teaching others to embrace (拥抱) their 53 .

Silently沉默地；B. Gradually逐渐地；C. Unnaturally不自然地；D.

Her eyes widened. “But ... why do they need to learn? Did they forget how?” The question cut through me. Children use crayons like magic sticks. That week, she drew a “Mars Palace” where astronaut-princesses rode rainbow rockets. I once dreamed too big. At twelve, I trained daily to be a tennis champion, racket (球拍) making shiny lines in summer sun. At sixteen, I filled notebooks with drawings—spaceships flying through space holes, heroes saving cities with paint. But adulthood threw those dreams into neat, dusty boxes labeled “Childish Things.” “Be practical,” I told myself when choosing a business degree. “Art doesn’t pay bills.” Yet late at night, I saw my younger self in the mirror—a ghost holding empty drawing-books. One October afternoon, everything changed. My daughter begged to explore the store room. Beneath old bags, we found a box, inside which lay my teenage treasures: a tennis ticket piece, a ribbon from a school art fair, and most amazingly, a drawing book. Its pages were full of crazy ideas — trees with magic fruits, trains under ocean waves. “Mom!” she gasped, touching a lion with wings I drew when I was her age, “Why stop believing these?” That night, I sat in front of a blank canvas (画布). The moonlight shone on my hands. The lion’s eyes in my old drawing seemed to ask me, “When did you stop dreaming?” Suddenly, I realized I had stopped myself by always needing a clear plan before I let myself dream. The next morning, I bought new paints. I didn’t paint normal things like trees or houses. I used bright purples and golds. My daughter danced around me, using her fingers to make clouds. We painted dogs doing math and dinosaurs growing flowers. For the first time in twenty years, I felt free again. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Three months later, the community announced a painting contest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the award ceremony, a silver-haired judge approached me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】(possible version) Three months later, the community announced a painting contest. My daughter put the poster to my drawing board and said, “Mom! Let’s paint our garden dinosaurs!” For many days, we painted together on a big wooden board. Some teenagers laughed at our big T-Rex with a flower crown, but kind shopkeepers gave us fruits. On the last night, when I was drawing stars on the dinosaur’s claws, my old business teacher walked by. “Interesting…but is this useful?” he asked. Before I could say anything, my daughter said, “Dreams don’t need resumes!” At the award ceremony, a silver-haired judge approached me. “Your painting didn’t fit any of our old rules,” she said with a smile. “So we made a new prize: Most Courageous Reimagining.” Later, as cameras flashed and we held our Golden Cup, I saw a teenage girl in the crowd drawing quickly. In her notebook, astronauts were painting walls on Mars. I leaned down and said, “Don’t let anyone tell you that’s impossible.” She smiled and drew rainbow rockets around them. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在女儿七岁询问自己工作后，回忆起自己儿时充满梦想，如想成为网球冠军、进行艺术创作，但成年后因追求 “实际” 而放弃梦想。在女儿发现作者年少时的绘画作品后，作者重新拿起画笔，与女儿一起自由创作，重获自由的感觉。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“三个月后，社区宣布举办一场绘画比赛。”可知，第一段可描写作者 和女儿参赛的过程。包括女儿提议参赛、一起创作过程中遇到的情况，如青少年的嘲笑、店主的支持，以及老师的质疑等。 ②由第二段首句内容“在颁奖典礼上，一位满头银发的评委走近我。”可知，第二段可描写评委对作者画作的评价，作者获得新奖项，以及看到人群中一个女孩画画，作者 对她的鼓励。 2.续写线索：社区宣布比赛 —— 女儿提议参赛 —— 一起创作遇嘲笑与支持及老师质疑 —— 颁奖典礼评委评价 —— 获得新奖项 —— 鼓励女孩追梦想 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①放置：put /place ②适合：fit/suit ③举起：hold/lift 情绪类 ①微笑：smile/beam 【点睛】【高分句型 1】On the last night, when I was drawing stars on the dinosaur’s claws, my old business teacher walked by.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型 2】Before I could say anything, my daughter said, “Dreams don’t need resumes!”（运用了before引导的时间状语从句） 1 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高一下学期期末模拟卷（外研版2019） 英语·参考答案 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 第1部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 1—5 CCBAC 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分 22.5分） 6—10 ABCBA 11—15 BCBAA 16—20 CBCAC 第2部分 阅读理解（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） 21.

The process of making love porridge is quite complex. Before cooking, you'll supposed to wash the ingredients carefully. This is an important preparation step as IT ensures the quality of the dish. Then you need to put the ingredients into a pot and cook them slowly. Cook over a medium, high heat until the porridge comes to the boil, then turn down the heat when the porridge is ready. IT can be served plain, but I usually add some sugar to make IT taser. Different people may add different ingredients, like whole grain rice, red beans, pumpkin and tried fruits to the pot, but people in my hometown especially like to add sweet potatoes. One key reason is that three potatoes are abundant in our area during the winter. Although labor porridge is incredibly delicious, IT is recommended to consume IT in small amounts due to its high calorie content, and people with a weight problem should pay particular attention to controlling their intake. That's all for my introduction. If you're interested in the dish, try to cook IT with your parents on this year's lover festival. My dear students in today's lesson will learn about a traditional chinese dish, eight treasure porridge, also called love porridge, because is usually served on the labour festival. The process of making love porridge is quite complex. Before cooking, you're supposed to wash the ingredients carefully. This is an important preparation step as IT ensures the quality of the dish. Then you need to put the ingredients into a pot and cook them slowly. Cook over a medium, high heat until the porridge comes to the boil, then turn down the heat when the porridge is ready. IT can be served plain, but I usually add some sugar to make IT taser. Different people may add different ingredients, like whole grain rice, red beans, pumpkin and tried fruits to the pot, but people in my hometown especially like to add sweet potatoes. One key reason is that three potatoes are abundant in our area during the winter. Although labor porridge is incredibly delicious, IT is recommended to consume IT in small amounts due to its high calorie content, and people with a weight problem should pay particular attention to controlling their intake. That's all for my introduction. If you're interested in the dish, try to cook IT with your parents on this year's lover festival. 第二节到此结束。 ■ ■ 2024-2025学年高一下学期期末模拟卷（外研版2019） 非选择题（请在各试题的客题区内作客） 英语·答题卡 第三部分语言与用〔共两节，满分30分》 第二节《共10小通：都小图15分，满分15分) 名 可 57 5 60 记 励条形闪区 准专证可 6, n2. 64 65 □ 第四能分耳作（共丙节，清分4维分》 0 注克事理 第一5（裤分[5分】 1 2 3 3 认真险查制考层斯起饮第形用。 h深t 4 黑名字进的莲字第请写。学体工整。 5 5 5 5 5 1.理号序在是的是区内作园理区填处国 67 的馨案天敏，在道证，试程上作馨无敏， 保持卡面清，不新、不要弄、弄越。使用 放浦、利低刀。 选择题（请用2B铂笔填涂） (1-20小想：每小通15分：20小赠。每小道25分：4-51小题，每小题1分， Yous. 【1411B1Hc1 sIAHBIICI HIAUBIICI 体S1BHC可 114118Hc 11AiHB1tC司 21411B11C IAIERIICI Li Hes 31411n1ie8 。1A111c司 D IAINIICI IAIINIICI 第二节（满片25分） 41411B1Ic1 号1A1InI1C1 41411B1IC可 w IAIIEIICI s1411B11c 1话1AHa11e1 451411B11c1 IAIIRIICI Three moths laler.the commnity anrounced a painong conest 211A1多11C11意1 裤1A811C11B1 31A11B11C1rB1 61Att泰31C1I●11E11FI01 2亚14u11e1●1 p1A1111c11B1 321411B1计CiD74Atw11e1●Ht11F1IG 2达.4A1i=11C11● 排1A1111C11D1 331411#11c101 gA11月C11●11天11FIG1 241411=11c11● 3【4H11c1D 34141111C1iD1 3%IA411目c11●HE1IFG 2达1411泰1月01●1 郑1A1n1C11 51411n11CB1 01a10泰1C1●111101 At the awand coremory.a silver-haired judge approached md. 411A111C11●14w1A11B11C1101 5升141B11C16D1 4柱14111C11●1 分1A1量11C110 21411e11Ct01 5.1A1c11● 移1A1H1iC11B可 3约141111CID 4“1A1i1C11●1 4钟1A11量1C110 4141Hn11e1B1 51A111C11D15郑1A1H11C11D1 95I411■11C1D1 器 信体各翅转的荐耀试域内作荐，指时媒色华粉边限尾性域的荐案大线 雨在落划目门折调域内伟摩，每用国彩已制可移域的养南无维1 英语第1面（共2面） 氨语第2耳（共2年） 2024-2025学年高一下学期期末模拟卷（外研版2019） 英 语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 考生注意： 1．答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 3．测试范围：必修二~必修三（外研版 2019）。 4．难度系数：0.65。 5．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） 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.

As a company created by the Marley family to carry on Bob Marley’s love for both music and the planet, the company creates attractive and timeless products that are good for the earth. Today we tried out a new type of over-ear headphone which you could get with high quality at a really fair price. Battery Offering 32 hours of playback with noise canceling turned off, and 26 hours turned on, the headphones will get you through several days of listening to good music without charging (充电) the batteries. You can use them longer if you put them on airplane mode. And the quick-charge technology will allow you to enjoy a two-hour playback after just 15 minutes of charging. Sound The most important thing here is the sound. It has a lot of sound quality for you to choose from, with clear sound that will sound great on a classical track. You can also design the sound to your liking on the app. Material Made of wood and reusable aluminum (铝), the headphones weigh quite a bit but it’s not to say that they’re uncomfortable. The special ear pads (衬垫) fit around the ears closely, and the underside of the headband also has lots of soft pads so you can’t feel uncomfortable even afterhours of listening. Costs: RRP £199. If over-ear headphones aren’t your thing, you can’t go wrong with our other excellent products. 21．Which of the following can best describe the products of House of Marley? A．Beautiful. B．Traditional. C．World-famous. D．Environmentally friendly. 22．What is special about the new type of headphone? A．It has long battery life. B．It works best in airplane mode. C．It can be fully charged in 15 minutes. D．It can recognize environmental noise easily. 23．Why are there many soft pads? A．To make the headphones unbreakable. B．To make the headphones look beautiful. C．To make people feel physically comfortable. D．To improve the sound quality of headphones. B I grew up in the slums (贫民窟) of Quezon City, the youngest of four siblings. At a very young age, I witnessed the realities of poverty. When I was three, my parents discovered my talent for art. By five, my skills were further developed when I received a sponsorship from UNICEF. That was my first dot, where I realized that creativity could play a big role in my future. Despite my passion for art, financial situation kept me from pursuing my dream of becoming an architect or working in advertising or animation. Instead, I enrolled in Business Administration, majoring in Marketing in a university. It was a practical choice—one that would later prove valuable. After graduation, I took short courses in graphic design, balancing my education with work to support myself. At 28, I started a small marketing agency with no fund; competing with larger firms was hard, so I eventually closed the agency to pursue a full-time marketing career in IT. I poured my heart into carrying out every marketing plan. My dedication earned me recognition and respect, but after four years, I was suddenly dismissed. Despite my frustration, I reminded myself of Steve Jobs’ words: “You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” Losing my job was not the end—it was a new beginning. I therefore decided to complete my MBA studies and had a chance to be an exchange student abroad and reinvested in my passion by relaunching my marketing agency. In time, it boomed, securing multinational clients through relationships I had developed over the years. Despite the financial struggles and moments of near-depression, I never gave up. Like Steve Jobs said, “we may not always see how the dots connect at the moment, but when we look back, we realize they form a masterpiece.” 24．Why did the author choose to major in Marketing instead of art? A．Marketing was her dream. B．She lost her interest in art. C．Finances limited her choices. D．Her parents advised against art. 25．What does the term “dot” most likely symbolize? A．Great financial progress. B．Significant turning points. C．Individual achievements. D．Educational qualifications. 26．What was the author’s response to her unemployment? A．She abandoned her major. B．She embraced adaptability. C．She blamed external factors. D．She prioritized making money. 27．Why does the author quote Steve Jobs twice? A．To emphasize a core theme. B．To introduce a new concept. C．To contrast their experiences. D．To criticize corporate culture. C Facing high employee turnover and an aging population, nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks, but few researchers have explored how these technologies impact workers and the quality of care. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employee retention (保留) and a higher quality of care. Researchers drew on surveys of Japanese nursing homes taken in 2020 and 2022. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future would be like elsewhere a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” said Yong Suk Lee, one of the researchers. “We need to be ready for this new reality.” “We’ve found that robot adoption reduces quit rates by assisting care workers,” Lee said. “This is important because turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Patients also benefited in facilities that used robots, according to the study. The nursing homes that Lee’s team studied reported a decrease in the use of patient restraints (束缚) and in the bedsores that nursing home residents commonly suffer, largely because of a lack of mobility. “By removing the physical pressure associated with certain tasks, robots may have made room for care workers to focus on tasks better suited for human beings, such as those involving human touch,” Lee said. “Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.” This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully address the challenges of caring for aging populations. It will help inform the work of the long-term care industry and help us better understand how technologies impact workers and patients. 28．What made the researchers focus on Japan? A．Its harmonious society. B．Its stable employment. C．Its varied types of robots. D．Its large aging population. 29．Which of the following shows Lee’s opinion? A．Care workers’ salaries will increase significantly. B．Robots can cooperate very well with care workers. C．The use of patient restraints should be multiplied. D．Robot use isn’t associated with employee retention. 30．What does the author say about the new research? A．It is valuable. B．It needs improving. C．It isn’t a pioneering study. D．It challenges the care industry. 31．In which section of a newspaper is this text most likely to be found? A．Culture. B．Sports. C．Politics. D．Technology. D We all carry some secrets that we would rather not share with the people around us. In much the same way that we may only invite visitors into the “good rooms” of our house while the rest is an absolute tip, we often hide the chaos of our personal lives behind a polished front. This may be a serious mistake, since it’s precisely those vulnerabilities that can offer rich opportunities to bond with the people around us. This is sometimes known as the “beautiful mess effect”. Researches in social psychology indicate that the beautiful mess effect is a common phenomenon. We tend to be overly fearful of negative reactions to our flaws and failures, while underestimating how much people will appreciate our honesty or courage. In general, others’ perceptions of our vulnerabilities are far more positive than we imagine. Researchers asked Princeton students to imagine picking a few statements that might represent their inner life to a stranger. Some were asked to select from a list of weaknesses — like a bad temper, impulsivity, and closed-mindedness. Others were asked to pick statements from a list of strengths, such as patience, perseverance and open-mindedness. Once again, the participants were told that these statements would then be shown to another student, and were asked to predict how much that person would like them. On average, the students picking the weakness assumed they would be liked less than those choosing the strengths. But the perceptions were generally much better than they’d expected. In fact, those reading the profiles gave slightly higher ratings to someone listing their bad points. Experiments have shown the beautiful mess effect applies in all kinds of contexts. Leaders who admit to a potentially embarrassing weakness — such as anxiety about public speaking, or a fear of flying — score more highly on ratings of authenticity and inspire greater loyalty. In today’s digitally polished world, acknowledging your vulnerabilities can seem especially difficult. But if you can calm your inner critic and recognize that insecurity, disappointment and frustration are universal human experiences, you will find it far easier to share your perceived flaws with others. Rather than isolating us, the things that cause us shame are often a sign of our humanity, and a source of intimacy and connection. 32．What does the underlined word “tip” in the first paragraph probably mean? A．A useful piece of advice. B．The pointed end of something. C．A state of being untidy or disorderly. D．A small amount of money for a service. 33．What did the Princeton students’ experiment show? A．People find sharing flaws with strangers surprisingly easy. B．People always value those who openly display strengths. C．Others perceive vulnerabilities more positively than we assume. D．Students revealing weaknesses were less liked than strengths-focused. 34．What can we infer from the passage about leaders? A．Leaders should never show any weakness. B．Showing weaknesses can make leaders more popular. C．Leaders who admit weaknesses are not authentic enough. D．Leaders’ weaknesses will definitely lead to a loss of loyalty. 35．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Fear of Negative Reactions B．The Importance of Hiding Our Flaws C．How to Make Friends in the Digital World D．Your Weakness makes You More Beautiful 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Take a moment to notice any sensations in your body right now. 36 Does your mind seem busy with thoughts, or is it focused on what you’re reading? These are all signals telling how you feel. Where do feelings come from? 37 Finding humor or joy in life’s moments often brings a smile to our faces. Our breathing becomes shallow in response to our fear. When someone jumps and surprises us, our throat or chest might tighten. Feelings are important because they give hints (提示) about what you need. If you’re angry, it might mean something is unfair and you need help to fix it. If you’re sad, this could mean you need comforting or time to be healed. 38 It can help you to talk about what you feel, which can make it easier to get the help you might need to figure things out and move on. In the film Inside Out 2, the characters in 13-year-old Riley’s brain represent her emotions. They each take over her brain as she goes through big life changes. 39 Therefore, we see Joy, Fear and Sadness show up when Riley goes to a new high school and when she worries about losing her friends. Riley learns to understand that all emotions are normal, and that they are all important. Emotions don’t last forever - they come and go. Try to make it a habit to notice your emotions. In doing so, we won’t let emotions take over. 40 A．Many factors can have an impact on it. B．We can say emotions act as messengers, C．Should we notice how our brain and body connect? D．They start in our brains and also exist in our bodies. E．Is your breathing fast or slow or somewhere in between? F．This will help us stay calm and support our personal growth. G．The ability to name your feelings is emotional awareness. 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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I always loved art. From the moment I could hold a crayon (蜡笔), I was drawing, painting, and creating. But as I grew older, I was told it wasn’t a(n) “ 41 ” career. So, I studied business instead.

Encouraged by their support, I took an even bigger leap: I quit my job and 52 my own art studio. Now, I spend my days doing what I love — creating art and teaching others to embrace (拥抱) their 53 . That decision taught me that following your passion is never a mistake. One thing I’ve learned is: the scariest risks often 54 the most rewarding journeys.

It has developed a series of 57 (remark) AI models that are not only powerful but also cost-effective. For instance, DeepSeek has released models like DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1. 58 former, with 671 billion parameters, can handle tasks such as coding, translation, and essay/ email generation. DeepSeek-R1, a reasoning model, is designed to compete with some of OpenAI’s models. 59 makes DeepSeek stand out is its use of older-generation hardware like NVIDIA’s H800 chips. This 60 (result) in a significantly lower training cost. While training a model like OpenAI’s GPT4 may cost around $100million, DeepSeek can achieve a similar 61 (perform) with a training cost of less than $6 million. In addition, DeepSeek’s models are accessible at a much 62 (low) price point. Its subscription cost starts at $0.50 per month, 63 (compare) to OpenAI’s ChatGPT which charges $20 per month. This affordability allows people with budget restrictions 64 (access) advanced AI services. Although like any new technology, DeepSeek also faces some challenges, it is undoubtedly a rising star 65 the field of AI, and its future development is worth following closely. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 66．假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Jack非常喜欢中国茶文化。近期你市文化馆（the Cultural Center）将举办中国茶文化展。请写一封信告知Jack这一消息。内容包括： 1. 时间和地点；2. 展览内容。 注意：1. 词数80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Jack, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分 25 分) 67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 When my daughter turned seven, she asked about my job. “I teach adults to draw at a college,” I explained. Her eyes widened. “But ... why do they need to learn? Did they forget how?” The question cut through me. Children use crayons like magic sticks. That week, she drew a “Mars Palace” where astronaut-princesses rode rainbow rockets. I once dreamed too big. At twelve, I trained daily to be a tennis champion, racket (球拍) making shiny lines in summer sun. At sixteen, I filled notebooks with drawings—spaceships flying through space holes, heroes saving cities with paint. But adulthood threw those dreams into neat, dusty boxes labeled “Childish Things.” “Be practical,” I told myself when choosing a business degree. “Art doesn’t pay bills.” Yet late at night, I saw my younger self in the mirror—a ghost holding empty drawing-books. One October afternoon, everything changed. My daughter begged to explore the store room. Beneath old bags, we found a box, inside which lay my teenage treasures: a tennis ticket piece, a ribbon from a school art fair, and most amazingly, a drawing book. Its pages were full of crazy ideas — trees with magic fruits, trains under ocean waves. “Mom!” she gasped, touching a lion with wings I drew when I was her age, “Why stop believing these?” That night, I sat in front of a blank canvas (画布). The moonlight shone on my hands. The lion’s eyes in my old drawing seemed to ask me, “When did you stop dreaming?” Suddenly, I realized I had stopped myself by always needing a clear plan before I let myself dream. The next morning, I bought new paints. I didn’t paint normal things like trees or houses. I used bright purples and golds. My daughter danced around me, using her fingers to make clouds. We painted dogs doing math and dinosaurs growing flowers. For the first time in twenty years, I felt free again. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Three months later, the community announced a painting contest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the award ceremony, a silver-haired judge approached me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
