Slowly the beast lifts its head and its thick trunk delicately curls around the leaves of a nearby tree, pulling out the leaves and politely slipping them into its mouth. The beast’s great grey skin is partly broken and aged from the African sun. Some mud drops on one side from its last trip to a nearby river. Its rough hair sticks out from all over its skin and two large, white tusks curve elegantly from either side of its mouth. Somewhere a lion roars and something else gives a loud high shout. A vulture (秃鹫) drifts over far above this world, barely a black dot in the sky. The buzzing of the countless bush insects seems to collectively shift up in high tune, almost like the whole of the savanna (热带草原) was singing some song that only they knew. I peer through the lens (镜头) at this scene. The zoom lens shows almost every detail of the elephant: the three small cuts in its left ear from playing as a baby around thorn trees, the scar down its front leg where a lion caught it unaware as a young adult, and weathering on its great, valuable tusks from decades of living in this unforgiving grassland on a dusty continent. And then the elephant looks at me. It looks at me with those big, eyelashed eyes with a warmth coming outwards from a vast, hidden depth there. I can suddenly feel its soul, and feel the line of elephants that came before this one, trailing back to the very beginnings of this great savanna. We will never understand what wonders this ancient being and its kind have seen and whispered to each other across the ages on this old, sacred grassland. It looks at me, and it looks through me and sees me. The elephant knows I am there. It always did. It is not running away, nor is it fighting. It accepts and forgives. It loves. But, mostly, it just feels sad. It feels sorry for me. I cannot do this anymore. I take my eye off the sights and hand the gun back to my partner. “Let’s go home,” I said in a quiet voice, “let’s just go home.” 24. According to the first two paragraphs, which word can best describe the elephant? A. Mysterious. B. Depressed. C. Aggressive. D. Graceful. 25. When the author sees through the lens, he is _________________. A. deeply moved and filled with sympathy B. overwhelmed by the elephant’s strength C. annoyed at the presence of other animals D. shocked and scared by the elephant’s scars 26. What does the author intend to do initially? A. Take a picture. B. Observe the elephant. C. Hunt the elephant. D. Study African grassland. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Nature calms our anger. B. Nature purifies our souls. C. Nature heals our wounds. D. Nature enriches our imagination. C Dancing lowers the depression associated with Parkinson’s disease, and the benefits can be seen in multiple ways, a new study shows. “It was very cool to see dance had a positive effect on the mood circuits in the brain, which we could see in the imaging from MRI brain scans,” says Joseph DeSouza, author of the study. “These improvements were also reported by the participants via survey. Our study is the first to demonstrate these benefits across these two detection methods.” The study followed 23 participants with Parkinson’s disease from the Sharing Dance Parkinson’s program at Canada’s National Ballet School, along with family members or caregivers. Participants took weekly dance classes for 8 months, progressing from simple leg and foot work to more complex movements like waltzes and more. The research team focused on the subcallosal cingulate gyrus (SCG), a brain region linked to depression. They measured mood and depression before and after each class using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) (老年抑郁量表) and conducted regular MRI scans. The researchers found that after each dance class, reported depression rates dropped, and the effect was increasing from class to class, with significant improvements after 8 months. “We showed that SCG’s BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) signal decreases while dancing, which means the SCG was not functioning as fast as it would if you had depression,” says DeSouza. “Parkinson’s disease is often accompanied by depression long before motor symptoms (症状) appear.” Dance is thought to have a double benefit, with music activating the brain’s reward centers, and the movement acting on sensory and motor circuits. DeSouza, dancing with participants for 14 years, says that while dancing is not a treatment for Parkinson’s disease by itself, the benefits are clear. “We’re not trying to cure it with dance,” he says. “What we’re trying to do is to have people live a better quality of life. This goes for both the patients, and their families that take care of them.” 28. What do we know about the results of the two detection methods? A. They fall short of expectations. B. They are more accurate than before. C. They are distinct from each other. D. They show consistent conclusions. 29. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By referring to previous studies. B. By making pre-post comparisons. C. By employing computer modeling. D. By conducting drug experiments. 30. What did the researchers find about the SCG? A. It is in charge of motor system. B. It can be measured by the GDS. C. Dancing slows down its functioning. D. Depression weakens its BOLD signal. 31. What is the best title of the text? A. Dancing Away Parkinson’s Blues B. Dancing: Multiple Benefits To Be Seen C. Dancing With Your Mood Circuits D. Dancing: A Journey To Mental Well-being D According to an idea called the “inflationary (暴胀的) multiverse”, the universe has been constantly expanding, which would have created a countless number of other universes. Collectively, these cosmic islands form what scientists call a “multiverse”. However, other universes may lie beyond our scientific reach, physically and philosophically. Consequently, the methodologies by which physicists might validate (验证) the multiverse and whether such validation is even possible remain unresolved inquiries. In science, hypotheses (假说) are used to propose explanations, but from hypotheses to theories, validation of predictions is essential to see whether initial assumptions are supported or disproved. Theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli says, “It is hard to write theories that survive the proof of reality. Few survive thanks to a basic idea: Do not trust your fancies. Keep only the ideas that can be tested.” Rovelli adds, “Today many physicists are wasting time trying to guess and jumping to conclusions. This approach has never worked previously, and it is not working now.” The multiverse might be one of those wild guesses. Now, physicists are debating whether that problem moves the multiverse from physics to metaphysics, from the world of science to that of philosophy. Philosopher Richard Dawid believes scientists could support the multiverse hypotheses without actually finding physical support. “If we have a theory that seems to work, and have come up with nothing that works better, chances are our idea is right,” he says. Not everyone is so cheerful, though. Sabine Hossenfelder, another theoretical physicist, thinks “Without making contact with observation, a theory isn’t part of the natural sciences, and not physics.” Some supporters of the multiverse claim they have found physical evidence. Andrei Linde insists “Our universe seems fine-tuned (精调的) to be favourable to life, with a four-dimensional space in which we can live. It is certain that in an eternally inflating multiverse, one of the universes should turn out like ours. Each universe can have different physical laws and fundamentals. Given limitless changes, a universe on which humans can be born will be born. The multiverse actually explains why we’re here. And our existence, therefore, helps explain why the multiverse is plausible.” Just as Einstein’s theory of general relativity could only be confirmed recently with a billion-dollar instrument called LIGO, scientists may eventually discover more direct evidence of the multiverse. So far, all of science has relied on testability, but those tests take time, and most theoreticians want to wait it out. They are not ready to shelve an idea like the multiverse — which could actually be the answer to life, the universe and everything — until and unless they can prove to themselves it doesn’t exist. And that day may never come. 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. The multiverse is recognized as a theory. B. The multiverse starts debates on human existence. C. Rovelli criticizes physicists for their baseless fancies. D. Dawid emphasizes the necessity of physical evidence. 33. What does the underlined word “plausible” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Credible. B. Complex. C. Essential. D. Fascinating. 34. As for the existence of multiverse, the author is _________. A. negative B. neutral C. certain D. positive 35. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. Mysteries of Multiverse: Fine-Tuned for Life B. Can Physicists Ever Prove the Multiverse Is Real? C. The Inflationary Multiverse: Proven Beyond Doubt D. Have Physicists Lost Their Minds in the Multiverse? 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The printed book is back. Studies have shown that students retain more information when reading a hard-copy book compared to reading on a digital device. 36 The students found, according to a teacher, that “the ease of navigation (浏览)” was superior when using a traditional book. I love the way we now judge printed books using the language of the digital world. E-books may come with a “suite of navigational tools,” but it turns out that the best navigational devices are your forefinger and thumb. 37 To think, all this time, those devices have just been sitting there, dangling at the ends of your arms. Can a traditional book offer all the features of an e-book? Alas, no. 38 Luckily, it will naturally form two halves joined in the middle (“the spine”). If the left-hand chunk is thicker than the right-hand one, you are more than halfway through. Fans of the e-book point out digital text is easy to annotate (注解). Some devices even feature an image of a pencil to guide readers through the process. Traditional-book users have a similar system called a “pencil.” Thus annotated, such books can be left around for others to peruse (精读). 39 However, one must question whether this is really an advantage. In secondary school, placing the weighty textbooks in my backpack would draw my shoulders back and my chest forward in a way that turned the school into the equivalent of a military parade ground. It totally transformed my physique. Educational trends come and go. 40 But for the moment, I find myself standing at attention, flexing my textbook-built shoulders and saluting their glorious return. A. There’s still no substitute for the traditional book. B. Traditional books also excel at stirring up feelings. C. Admittedly, e-books are lighter than paper volumes. D. Maybe the shift back to traditional books won’t last. E. You can use them to flip the pages forward and backward. F. It lacks a “progress bar” indicating what percentage of the book has been read. G. In response, one school near where I live in Australia abandoned its e-readers entirely. 第三部分 语言知识运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共1 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 sat at a restaurant on the river, watching Christmas boats decorated with lights go by.

On such a cold night, it was heaven to slip on. 44 much thought, I put it on, ready to leave. But wait! I guessed it was a size 16, not an 8. Oh no! Someone must have taken mine by mistake. Having to wear hers to keep out the cold, I left my 45 with the hostess, explaining that when the 46 returned mine, I’d return hers. I was 47 I’d get a call soon but I didn’t. Pondering for the hundredth time about my lost coat, I was sick at heart. I loved it for its emotional value and warmth.

She greeted me at the door. “What a great coat!” she exclaimed. I frowned 49 . “You’re kidding. It’s four sizes too big.” I launched into my story of the coat 50 . “If you don’t want it, I’ll take it.” 51 Penny. “I think it’s for you.” she added, this time seriously. Staring at the coat, I thought, “Do I need an attitude adjustment? Does it really matter if my new coat is too long and 52 ? What should I do to get to accept and 53 it?” In the following week, I took the coat to a tailor and had it 54 . It fit me perfectly. Then, I remembered the cold evening that ended with a disappointment that 55 me for a long time. Perhaps the most important thing I will wear is my attitude. 41.

The biggest importer is the US, which  56 (ship) in more than US$650 million worth in 2021. The details of fireworks’ invention are lost to history, but 57 folk tale tries to fill in the gap. It goes that monk named Li Tian created fireworks around 1400 years ago by packing gunpowder into bamboo tubes  58 (scare) off evil spirits. An explosive mixture of gun-powder and chemical compounds (化合物) is 59 makes fireworks flash in pretty colours and fun shapes. The images they make depend on the placement of these compounds inside the shell of the firework. Crowd 60 (favorite) include “comet”, featuring a long trail of sparks; “peony”, a flower-like burst; and “strobe”, which produces a blinking effect. The single biggest firework shell ever shot was part of a 2020 winter-carnival display in Colorado, US.  61 (weigh) 1268 kilograms, it rose more than a kilometre into the sky 62 bursting, turning the night sky red. For centuries we had to light firework 63 hand, but since the 1980s, there’s been another option: computer-controlled lighters, which made music at displays more 64 (precise) timed and safer. An even greener alternative recently 65 (adopt) is using drones to trace flashy patterns in the sky. The future of fireworks, like so much else, may be robotic. 第四部分 写作 (共两节, 满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 假如你是李华，正在美国交流学习，上周六在一家餐馆你有一次不愉快的就餐经历。请给该餐馆的经理写一封投诉信，讲述所发生的事情。内容包括： 1. 投诉问题； 2. 你的期望。 注意：写作词数应为80词左右，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 第二节（满分 25 分） 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。 I recently had a challenging time working on a group project. My teacher put me with three people who weren’t all that excited about getting any work done. Our assignment was to pick one of the 50 states and make a brochure about it. “Let’s pick Hawaii!” said Emma, “Hawaii has super-cute swimsuits” “True!” Agreed Angela, “Speaking of swimsuits, there are some get-ready-for-summer sales happening now.” “Really? Maybe my mother will take me shopping this weekend,” said Emma. I turned to Bernard, “Which state do you think we should pick?” He shrugged (耸肩), “I don’t care. But what happened to your hair, Jessica? It looks like caught in a blender (搅拌机)!” No one in my group seemed very eager to talk about our project, so I went ahead and shared interesting facts I knew about Hawaiian food and culture. When I was done, no one responded, so I pulled out my notebook. I asked Emma to search for pictures of Hawaiian sea life. But she said she was busy and asked if her picture at a Hawaii hotel pool would do. I requested Angela and Bernard to find Hawaiian historical information and geography respectively. It turned out they all had their own business. I was getting the impression that none but me planned to work on the brochure. Later that day, as I set the table for dinner, my mom could tell I was stressed-out. “What’s going on?” she asked. I told her what happened and sighed, “So I guess the only way to get the brochure done is for me to do it myself.” “Well,” my mom said with a smile, “when it comes to homework, they don’t necessarily do things you order. Second, I doubt if you’re responsible for everyone else’s part. Why don’t you check in with your teacher about it?” When I talked to my teacher the next day, he explained he would grade the assignment partly on the finished brochure but mostly on our individual work, which made me much less worried. 注意： 1. 续写词数要求应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para.1: At our next group meeting, I tried to bring up my concerns in a friendly way. Para. 2: Finally, we were amazed to receive the grade for our group project. 草稿纸 福建省厦门第一中学2024-2025学年高三下英语周考四 参考答案 听力理解：1-5 BCCAA 6-10 CABCA 11-15 BABCA 16-20 ACBBC 阅读理解：21-23 DCC 24-27 DACB 28-31 DBCA 32-35 CADB 36-40 GEFCD 完形填空：41-45 ACBDC 46-50 BDAAB 51-55 CABDB 语法填空： 56. shipped 57. a 58. to scare 59. what 60. favorites 61.

I’m writing to make a complaint about an awful dining experience at your restaurant last Saturday. The reason for my dissatisfaction is that both the service and food quality fell short of expectation. While ordering grilled salmon, the server was rude and impatient, ignoring my questions about the menu. Worse still, despite waiting 40 minutes, the dish arrived salty and not cooked properly. Then I requested a replacement, but the server refused and claimed it was “standard quality”, which truly is unacceptable. It’s my sincere hope that you could investigate these issues, improve staff training, and provide compensation. Awaiting your prompt reply! Best regards, Li Hua 读后续写参考范文： At our next group meeting, I tried to bring up my concerns in a friendly way. I carefully explained grading rules of the project and suggested that they take it seriously. “Since we’re a team, we rely on each other to do the best we can.” I told them, assuring everybody that we could seek solutions together if troubles arose. My sincerity persuaded my teammates. Emma, Angela, and Bernard all ended up doing their share. The following days witnessed our lively discussion and cooperation. Shining moments occurred when the girls added fashion information and Bernard put humour to our work. As we handed in our assignment, I felt my stress relieved. Finally, we were amazed to receive the grade for our group project. Right as the teacher said, our group work was graded majorly based on efforts of each member. It was not excellent but good enough to reward what we had prepared and contributed. Smile spread across my teammates’ faces. They genuinely thanked me as it was my responsible attitude that helped them get work done, which I owed to my mom’s golden advice. Next time when you are stuck with teamwork troubles, don’t shoulder everything but try a friendly communication. 附：听力录音稿 Text 1 M: Oh, it’s finally over. Next time I’m picking the film. W: Yes, you should have picked. I really can’t understand you. You always complain about everything. Text 2 W: License and registration, please. Have you been drinking tonight, sir? M: I had one or two glasses of juice, but nothing else. W: Step out of your car, please. Text 3 W: Look at the way the light is used in this painting. M: I prefer the colors. They’re so vivid and make me feel the scene is alive. W: Yeah, but the shadows are what make it real to me. Text 4 M: Hello, you look a little lost. Are you new here? W: Yeah, I just started my training today and I’m not sure where to begin. M: Follow me. This machine here will work out your leg muscle and you can use it like this. Text 5 M: I’m thinking of checking out a restaurant in the neighborhood this evening. Do you have any suggestions? W: I know this really nice Italian place. The food is tasty and the decoration is beautiful. I’d recommend giving it a try. M: Alright, I’ll pick you up at 6:00. Text 6 W: Mr. Johnson, do you have a second? I need to talk to you. M: Sure, Sophie, what can I do for you? W: Well, I know I’ve used up all my vacation days this year, but my sister is getting married, and the wedding is overseas, so... M: You want to take some time off, right? W: Yes, sir. M: What dates are you planning on taking off? I’ll need at least two months notice, so that I can plan for your absence. W: I was thinking of taking off from September 15th until the 30th. Would you be okay with that? M: Well, I guess so. Text 7 W: The air conditioning is not working! We need to phone the repairman before we start to fry in here! M: Mike is handling it. I think they are also getting the repairman to fix the bathroom toilet that keeps getting blocked. W: That would be convenient. They might as well ask him to fix the lights. They keep flashing all the time. It’s really annoying! M: Yeah, you are right. This office is falling apart! The other day the pipes outside cracked and that’s why the parking lot was flooded. W: I know! I was in ankle deep water trying to get to my car that day! The repairman definitely has his work cut out for him. Text 8 W: Hello, sir. How can I help you? M: I would like to plan a trip for me and my wife. W: We have a couple of options such as beaches, the deserts or the countryside. M: I think something in the countryside would be nice. W: Perfect! This package includes round-trip flights to New Hampshire. Our staff will pick you up on your arrival and provide you with fine wine and finger foods. M: Sounds good! How about the hotel we will be staying at? W: That is the best part. Your hotel is actually an old castle that has been restored and redecorated. You will enjoy a comfortable and private time there. M: Wow! This sounds like something my wife would really enjoy! Anything we can do there ? W: Of course! The castle provides a horseback ride along the country road. You can also go fishing to the nearby lake or visit the local farm. M: I want to book this trip. I don’t care what it costs! Text 9 M: Hey, Mel! Are you up for some tennis today? W: Sorry, I can’t! I have to go to work, pick up Jake and Maddie from school, and make them an afternoon snack, then take Jake to soccer practice and Maddie to dance class. M: Maybe you should hire a babysitter to help you out! W: Oh, I don’t know... it’s hard to find the right person. You have to consider her previous work experience, the responsibilities you give her, and how she interacts with the kids. I would love to have someone to help me out, though. M: I think you should definitely consider it! I can refer you to this great babysitter, Amy. She used to work for my neighbors. She’s very responsible, a great cook, and great with kids. W: Oh, that’s great. Can you give me her number? I’ll talk it over with Dan and give her a call tomorrow. Maybe this way I won’t be so occupied every day, and Dan and I might even get to go on a date once in a while. Text 10 M: Ever heard of a man named Buckminster Fuller? He was a scientist, inventor, and also a great architect. What made Buckminster so special was his concern for the planet and human. When you have a shortage of resources, he said, you get war. Thus, he claimed that to solve human’s major problems, we have to anticipate what will become problems as resources reduce.
