Below, she recommends other novels shaped by place. The Meadow James Galvin (1992). Galvin narrows his novel’s focus to a river in south-eastern Wyoming, the site of three generations’ struggle and achievements. “I often find myself reading each sentence twice, just to enjoy the unexpected twists of Galvin’s prose (散文). ” What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours Helen Oyeyemi (2016). Everything about this story collection delights and puzzles the soul, in a way of experiencing the terrifying fairy tale for the first time. Each story feels like working around you in a kind of harmony you can’t even begin to comprehend until the final line. Orange World Karen Russell (2019). “Every new book of Russell’s instantly takes its previous book’s place as my favorite.” Place, in each of these time-jumping, world-warping stories — which unfold a map of place both real and imagined — provides physical, social, and emotional pressures on both character and reader. The Bluest Eye Toni Morrison (1970). “Morrison’s novel remains my favorite, possibly owing to the particular feelings produced by its place and personhood, and its suggestion that how you experience the world is governed by age, race, and whether or not one grows up loved.” 36. What do the four novels have in common? A. They have similar plots. B. They are shaped by place. C. They have the same background. D. They are written by Téa Obreht. 37. Which of the statements is true about What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours? A. It fills the reader’s heart with terror. B. It’s a story collection without harmony in each story. C. It’s a prose authored by Helen Oyeyemi. D. The harmony in it can not be understood until the end. 38. How does Téa Obreht evaluate Karen Russell and her Orange World ? A. It takes on a dynamic and mysterious atmosphere. B. The reader feels their pressures taken off when they read it. C. Téa always likes Karen’s new book better than her previous one. D. It presents social conflicts in different times and worlds. 39. What do you know about The Bluest Eye from the last paragraph? A. Its place and personhood impress Téa Obreht a lot. B. It advocates ecological balance in nature. C. It suggests a connection between love and success. D. Age and gender impact how you experience the world. B I’ve worked in the factories surrounding my hometown every summer since I graduated from high school. But making the transition between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. For a student like me who considers any class before noon to be uncivilized, getting to a factory by 6 o’clock each morning is torture. My friends never seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation. There are few people as self-confident as a college student who has never been out in the real world. People of my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. In fact, all the classes did not prepare me for my battles with the machine I ran in the plant, which would jam whenever I absent-mindedly put in a part backward or upside down. The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear overnight. Issues like downsizing and overseas relocation had always seemed distant to me until my co-workers told me that the unit I was working in would shut down within six months and move to Mexico, where people would work for 60 cents an hour. After working 12-hour shifts in a factory, the other options have become only too clear. When I’m back at the university, skipping classes and turning in lazy re-writes seems too irresponsible after seeing what I would be doing without school. All the advice and public-service announcements about the value of an education that used to sound stale now ring true. These lessons I’m learning, however precious, are always tinged (带有) with a sense of guilt. Many people pass their lives in the places I briefly work, spending 30 years where I spend only two months at a time. “This job pays well, but it’s hell on the body,” said one co-worker. “Study hard and keep reading,” she added. My experiences in the factories have inspired me to make the most of my college years before I enter the real world for good. 40. How did the author look back on his summer days while at college? A. They brought him nothing but torture. B. They were no holiday for him at all. C. They were a relief from his hard work at school. D. They offered him a chance to know more people. 41. Which of the following is closest to the underlined word “torture” in the first paragraph? A. Misery. B. Fortune. C. Anxiety. D. Availability. 42. What does the author say about college students? A. They expect too much from the real world. B. They have little interest in blue-collar life. C. They think too highly of themselves. D. They are confident about their future. 43. What, according to the author, is most frustrating for blue-collar workers? A They do not get decent pay. B. They do not have job security. C. They have to work 12-hour shifts. D. They have to move from place to place. 44. Why does the author feel somewhat guilty? A. He realizes there is a great divide between his life and that of blue-collar workers. B. He looks down upon the mechanical work at the assembly line. C. He has not done much to help his co-workers at the factory. D. He has stayed at school just for the purpose of escaping from the real world. 45. In what important way has the author’s work experience changed him? A. He learned to be more practical. B. He acquired a sense of urgency. C. He came to respect blue-collar workers. D. He came to appreciate his college education. C Many people love the Halloween season, particularly young ones. It’s not hard to understand. The Halloween season is a time for fun-sized candy, giving rocks to trick or treaters, apple cider donuts, and frights. The very last-frights, are generally all in good fun. But can they be dangerous? Can someone be scared to death? The key factor in an imagined scare-caused death is a little chemical that anyone who’s played a particularly intense game of hide-and-seek is very familiar with: adrenaline (肾上腺素). Fear puts the body in a state of severe emotional anxiety, which in turn causes the autonomic fight-or-flight response. The fight-or-flight response is an evolutionary defence mechanism (机制) which acts in your best interest when there is a noticed threat. You sweat a lot, your anxiety is exacerbated, your blood glucose (葡萄糖) levels are increased, and your heart rate is higher. Like a cornered animal, you’re a bit less reasonable, a bit stranger, but a bit more ready to survive. Now, back to the adrenaline. Adrenaline causes all of these processes, but there’s just one organ, which, if overloaded, can lead to sudden death. The human body doesn’t immediately come to an end as soon as a kidney (肾) fails, but when a heart stops working, the whole business fails. This is what happens to your body during an adrenaline rush. Adrenaline causes calcium (钙) to enter the heart at a higher rate, and when there’s more calcium rushing through the heart, it has harder time resetting to its normal resting rate. This can cause a dangerous condition, which prevents blood from pumping to the rest of the body. Without immediate treatment, this can lead to sudden death. Of course, such cause of death isn’t unique to being scared. Any event that increases one’s adrenal level could lead to this dangerous condition. So if you are planning on scaring others the next Halloween season, be sure to do it in a controlled setting, especially if you have a history of heart problems. 46. What do we learn about the fight-or-flight response mentioned in Paragraph 2? A. It makes us think in a better way. B. It prevents adrenaline from rising. C. It has nothing to do with little kids. D. It is meant to help us survive better. 47. The underlined word “exacerbated” in Paragraph 3 means “________”. A. acquired B. relieved C. worsened D. addressed 48. What will probably happen during the dangerous condition according to Paragraph 5? A. Having a failed kidney. B. Having faster blood circulation. C. Having too much calcium in our blood. D. Having irregular heartbeats. 49. We can learn from the passage that we should ________. A. enjoy Halloween in a controlled way B. avoid low blood glucose levels C. exercise to protect ourselves from heart disease D. avoid scaring others during the Halloween screen 50. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Is it enjoyable to frighten others? B. Is it possible to be scared to death? C. Why is too much adrenaline dangerous? D. What to watch out for during the Halloween season? D “Girls are weak, and boys are strong. This is what is being subconsciously communicated to hundreds of millions of young boys and girls all over the world, just like it was with me,” said American actor Justin Baldoni. As a boy, all he wanted was to be accepted by other people. That acceptance meant he had to pretend to be strong when he was weak, confident when he felt insecure, and tough when he was actually hurting. Is that a healthy lifestyle? A member of the CPPCC Standing Committee might say “yes”. In his proposal, he spoke of a need to “prevent the feminization of male youths”. In response to his call, China’s Ministry of Education has recently demanded that schools should hire more physical education teachers and improve teaching methods to cultivate masculinity in students. The response has been widely debated online, with many people saying that it reinforces gender stereotypes. The state broadcaster CCTV wrote on its Weibo account, “Education is not simply about cultivating men and women. It’s more important to develop a willingness to take responsibility.” You might be wondering now: What is masculinity, and why is this so controversial? Well, by itself, “masculinity” refers to the qualities traditionally considered to be typical of men. While there is not really a single “correct” set of qualities, the term is often associated with strength, courage, assertiveness, and emotional control. Sometimes, however, these seemingly admirable qualities can be extended in unrealistic ways. But boys are also human. Blindly asking them to control their feelings “like a man” can only increase their stress when they grow up. As an educator who has spent years teaching in China, I agree that attaching more importance to physical education would definitely benefit students. Sports provide opportunities for physical fitness. More importantly, they can help develop lifelong skills, such as leadership and communication skills. However, putting the emphasis on masculinity is far from a sound reason for which to do so. It is unnecessary for all boys to build up their muscles, but it is essential that they all learn how to be strong inside. It is also fine for boys to cry and to show their weakness. Schools should work on equipping students with the skills and values they will need to be successful in life, not reinforcing stereotypes of masculinity borrowed from a bygone age. 51. Why did young Justin Baldoni think it necessary to pretend to be what he was actually not? A. He was trying to be strong and confident. B. He wanted to be accepted as a real man. C. It was necessary for an actor to be strong and tough. D. He felt it secure and safe to do so. 52. The underlined expression “masculinity” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “__________” A manly qualities B. potential abilities C. self-centredness D. steady strength 53. What is the argument against the demand of China’s Ministry of Education? A. It is necessary to prevent the feminization of male youths. B Physical education should be paid more attention to. C. We should teach students according to their individual qualities. D. Importance should be attached to developing students’ sense of responsibility. 54. What can we learn from the passage? A. Masculinity is out of date. B. Masculinity is overstated. C. Masculinity shows physical strength. D. Masculinity only focuses on physical fitness. 55. What does the author want to say in the article? A. We should do everything we can to guarantee students’ health. B. Schools should differentiate between boys and girls while educating them. C. It is important to prepare students with necessary skills and right values. D. It is time to weaken stereotypes of masculinity. 第II卷(35分) 第三部分: 写作 第一节、阅读表达(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分) 阅读短文, 并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything. On previous trips, we hadn’t made any real contact with the people of that city. This time we’d make it. One evening, we found a tiny cafe known only to the locals, and went inside. We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen. Moments later, a young woman led us to our seats at the other end of a table already occupied by an elderly couple. She gave us two menus, but unfortunately, there was no picture attached to each dish. For a few minutes, we struggled to recall a few French words, but discovered that the descriptions of each dish were too hard for us. Our table mates noticed our difficulty. The old man began explaining each dish, one at a time. Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds. For example, for the beef dish, he pretended that his hands were horns on both sides of his head, accompanied by a cow’s sound. When the young waitress returned, we placed our order and our new friends gave her instructions on how to prepare the food. Despite our limited ability to speak French, we continued our lively conversation throughout the meal. We talked about the beauty of Paris, our lives and our families. Near the end of the evening, a flower seller made her way through the cafe. We watched the old gentleman purchase a bunch of flowers. Artfully, he picked up two roses from the bunch, presented them to his lady, and gave her a kiss. Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us. We found our Paris. And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris. 56 What does the underlined part in paragraph 1 probably mean?(no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the cafe owner’s smile gradually disappear?(no more than 10 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 58. Why did the old man make animal sounds?(no more than 10 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 59. How was that evening the author and Peggy spent with their new friends?(no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What impression do you think the author might have on Paris after the experience in the cafe?(no more than 20 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节、书面表达(共1小题; 共25分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学学生李津，为了通过短视频展示家庭的爱与温暖，你校英语俱乐部将于5月10日至5月30日开展主题为“我爱我家”(I Love My Family)短视频比赛(Short Video Contest)，请用英语拟一份书面活动通知，内容包括： 1. 活动介绍(目的、主题、时间)； 2. 拍摄内容(围绕“我爱我家”主题，展现家庭生活)； 3. 参赛要求及奖励(英文字幕、不超过10分钟、原创、获奖作品校园网播放)。 注意：1. 词数不少于100；2. 可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯。 参考词汇：字幕 subtitle NOTICE ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The School English Club 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 宝坻一中2024-2025学年度第二学期高三年级 实验班模拟冲刺二英语科目试卷 第I卷(共95分) 第一部分: 英语知识运用(共两节; 满分45分) 第一节: 单项填空(共15小题: 每小题1分, 满分15分) 1. — Why didn’t you come to the party? — _______, but I’d really like some time alone to clear my thoughts.

As I left, I ___24___ at my wrist and shrugged to the ice-cream seller. ___25___ I couldn’t wait any longer and it really wasn’t my fault. His face was, once again, one of the total confusion. This experience ___26___ from my memory’ until years later when I came back to live in Mexico. I ___27___ that understanding “ahorita” took not a mastery of the language, but rather a ___28___ in the culture. When someone from Mexico says “ahorita,” it should almost never be taken ___29___; its meaning changes greatly with ___30___. As a linguist told me, “Ahorita could mean tomorrow, in an hour, within five years or never.” It is even used as a polite way of saying “no, thanks” when ___31___ an offer.

Below, she recommends other novels shaped by place. The Meadow James Galvin (1992). Galvin narrows his novel’s focus to a river in south-eastern Wyoming, the site of three generations’ struggle and achievements. “I often find myself reading each sentence twice, just to enjoy the unexpected twists of Galvin’s prose (散文). ” What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours Helen Oyeyemi (2016). Everything about this story collection delights and puzzles the soul, in a way of experiencing the terrifying fairy tale for the first time. Each story feels like working around you in a kind of harmony you can’t even begin to comprehend until the final line. Orange World Karen Russell (2019). “Every new book of Russell’s instantly takes its previous book’s place as my favorite.” Place, in each of these time-jumping, world-warping stories — which unfold a map of place both real and imagined — provides physical, social, and emotional pressures on both character and reader. The Bluest Eye Toni Morrison (1970). “Morrison’s novel remains my favorite, possibly owing to the particular feelings produced by its place and personhood, and its suggestion that how you experience the world is governed by age, race, and whether or not one grows up loved.” 36. What do the four novels have in common? A. They have similar plots. B. They are shaped by place. C. They have the same background. D. They are written by Téa Obreht. 37. Which of the statements is true about What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours? A. It fills the reader’s heart with terror. B. It’s a story collection without harmony in each story. C. It’s a prose authored by Helen Oyeyemi. D. The harmony in it can not be understood until the end. 38. How does Téa Obreht evaluate Karen Russell and her Orange World ? A. It takes on a dynamic and mysterious atmosphere. B. The reader feels their pressures taken off when they read it. C. Téa always likes Karen’s new book better than her previous one. D. It presents social conflicts in different times and worlds. 39. What do you know about The Bluest Eye from the last paragraph? A. Its place and personhood impress Téa Obreht a lot. B. It advocates ecological balance in nature. C. It suggests a connection between love and success. D. Age and gender impact how you experience the world. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. C 39. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了Téa Obreht最喜欢的几本小说的大概内容。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Below, she recommends other novels shaped by place. (下面，她推荐了其他按地域塑造的小说)”可知，四本书的共同点是都是根据地域塑造的。故选B。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。由文章What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours部分中“Everything about this story collection delights and puzzles the soul, in a way of experiencing the terrifying fairy tale for the first time. Each story feels like working around you in a kind of harmony you can’t even begin to comprehend until the final line. (这本故事集的一切都让人感到愉悦和困惑，以一种第一次体验恐怖童话的方式。每一个故事都像是在一种和谐中围绕着你，直到最后一行你才开始理解)”可知，这本书中的和谐要到最后才能被理解。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Orange World部分中“Every new book of Russell’s instantly takes its previous book’s place as my favorite. (罗素的每一本新书都会立刻取代前一本书，成为我的最爱)”可知，Téa总是比前一本更喜欢Karen的新书。故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“Morrison’s novel remains my favorite, possibly owing to the particular feelings produced by its place and personhood (莫里森的小说仍然是我的最爱，可能是因为它的地点和人物所产生的特殊感觉)”可推知，这本书中的地点和人物给Téa Obreht留下了深刻印象。故选A。 B I’ve worked in the factories surrounding my hometown every summer since I graduated from high school. But making the transition between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. For a student like me who considers any class before noon to be uncivilized, getting to a factory by 6 o’clock each morning is torture. My friends never seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation. There are few people as self-confident as a college student who has never been out in the real world. People of my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. In fact, all the classes did not prepare me for my battles with the machine I ran in the plant, which would jam whenever I absent-mindedly put in a part backward or upside down. The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear overnight. Issues like downsizing and overseas relocation had always seemed distant to me until my co-workers told me that the unit I was working in would shut down within six months and move to Mexico, where people would work for 60 cents an hour. After working 12-hour shifts in a factory, the other options have become only too clear. When I’m back at the university, skipping classes and turning in lazy re-writes seems too irresponsible after seeing what I would be doing without school. All the advice and public-service announcements about the value of an education that used to sound stale now ring true. These lessons I’m learning, however precious, are always tinged (带有) with a sense of guilt. Many people pass their lives in the places I briefly work, spending 30 years where I spend only two months at a time. “This job pays well, but it’s hell on the body,” said one co-worker. “Study hard and keep reading,” she added. My experiences in the factories have inspired me to make the most of my college years before I enter the real world for good. 40. How did the author look back on his summer days while at college? A. They brought him nothing but torture. B. They were no holiday for him at all. C. They were a relief from his hard work at school. D. They offered him a chance to know more people. 41. Which of the following is closest to the underlined word “torture” in the first paragraph? A. Misery. B. Fortune. C. Anxiety. D. Availability. 42. What does the author say about college students? A. They expect too much from the real world. B. They have little interest in blue-collar life. C. They think too highly of themselves. D. They are confident about their future. 43. What, according to the author, is most frustrating for blue-collar workers? A. They do not get decent pay. B. They do not have job security. C They have to work 12-hour shifts. D. They have to move from place to place. 44. Why does the author feel somewhat guilty? A. He realizes there is a great divide between his life and that of blue-collar workers. B. He looks down upon the mechanical work at the assembly line. C. He has not done much to help his co-workers at the factory. D. He has stayed at school just for the purpose of escaping from the real world. 45. In what important way has the author’s work experience changed him? A. He learned to be more practical. B. He acquired a sense of urgency. C. He came to respect blue-collar workers. D. He came to appreciate his college education. 【答案】40. B 41. A 42. C 43. B 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲过了作者在大学署假期间的兼职工作，改变了他对教育价值的看法，他开始珍惜大学教育，并意识到了自己和蓝领工人的人生有着巨大的差距，自己还有很大的发展空间。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。文章第一段讲到“My friends never seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation.( 我的朋友们似乎从来都不明白为什么我能回到学校这么放心，或者我的暑假根本不是假期)”可知，作者回顾他在大学的暑假，对他来说，它们根本不是假日。故选B。 【41题详解】 词义猜测题。划线单词前文“But making the transition between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. (但是，在课间休息期间，在学校和全职蓝领工作之间进行过渡从来没有变得更容易过)”可知，划线单词所在句子的意思是：对于像我这样认为中午前上课不文明的学生来说，每天早上6点前赶到工厂是一种折磨。由此可知，与第一段中带下划线的单词意思最接近的是A项Misery“痛苦的”。故选A。 42题详解】 细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“People of my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. (像我这样年纪的人似乎总是高估他们的时间和知识的价值)”可知，作者认为大学生太高估自己。故选C。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。文章第三段讲到“The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear overnight.(蓝领生活最大的压力是知道你的工作可能会在一夜之间消失)”可知，根据作者的观点，蓝领工人最沮丧的是他们没有工作保障。故选B。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。文章第五段讲到“These lessons I’m learning, however precious, are always tinged (带有) with a sense of guilt. Many people pass their lives in the places I briefly work, spending 30 years where I spend only two months at a time.(我学到的这些东西，无论多么珍贵，总是带着一种负罪感。许多人在我短暂工作的地方度过了他们的一生，在那里度过了30年，我一次只呆了两个月)”可知，作者意识到了自己和蓝领工人的人生有着巨大的差距，自己还有很大的发展空间，而他们的生活注定永远会在那个地方。由此推知，作者会觉得有些愧疚是因为他意识到他的生活和蓝领工人的生活有很大的不同。故选A。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。文章最后一段讲到“My experiences in the factories have inspired me to make the most of my college years before I enter the real world for good (我在工厂的经历激励我在进入现实世界之前充分利用大学时光)”可知，作者的工作经历改变了他，让他开始重视他的大学教育。故选D。 C Many people love the Halloween season, particularly young ones. It’s not hard to understand. The Halloween season is a time for fun-sized candy, giving rocks to trick or treaters, apple cider donuts, and frights. The very last-frights, are generally all in good fun. But can they be dangerous? Can someone be scared to death? The key factor in an imagined scare-caused death is a little chemical that anyone who’s played a particularly intense game of hide-and-seek is very familiar with: adrenaline (肾上腺素). Fear puts the body in a state of severe emotional anxiety, which in turn causes the autonomic fight-or-flight response. The fight-or-flight response is an evolutionary defence mechanism (机制) which acts in your best interest when there is a noticed threat. You sweat a lot, your anxiety is exacerbated, your blood glucose (葡萄糖) levels are increased, and your heart rate is higher. Like a cornered animal, you’re a bit less reasonable, a bit stranger, but a bit more ready to survive. Now, back to the adrenaline. Adrenaline causes all of these processes, but there’s just one organ, which, if overloaded, can lead to sudden death. The human body doesn’t immediately come to an end as soon as a kidney (肾) fails, but when a heart stops working, the whole business fails. This is what happens to your body during an adrenaline rush. Adrenaline causes calcium (钙) to enter the heart at a higher rate, and when there’s more calcium rushing through the heart, it has harder time resetting to its normal resting rate. This can cause a dangerous condition, which prevents blood from pumping to the rest of the body. Without immediate treatment, this can lead to sudden death. Of course, such cause of death isn’t unique to being scared. Any event that increases one’s adrenal level could lead to this dangerous condition. So if you are planning on scaring others the next Halloween season, be sure to do it in a controlled setting, especially if you have a history of heart problems. 46. What do we learn about the fight-or-flight response mentioned in Paragraph 2? A. It makes us think in a better way. B. It prevents adrenaline from rising. C. It has nothing to do with little kids. D. It is meant to help us survive better. 47. The underlined word “exacerbated” in Paragraph 3 means “________”. A. acquired B. relieved C. worsened D. addressed 48. What will probably happen during the dangerous condition according to Paragraph 5? A. Having a failed kidney. B. Having faster blood circulation. C. Having too much calcium in our blood. D. Having irregular heartbeats. 49. We can learn from the passage that we should ________. A. enjoy Halloween in a controlled way B. avoid low blood glucose levels C. exercise to protect ourselves from heart disease D. avoid scaring others during the Halloween screen 50. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Is it enjoyable to frighten others? B. Is it possible to be scared to death? C. Why is too much adrenaline dangerous? D. What to watch out for during the Halloween season? 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. D 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在万圣节时，人们因为恐怖而激动，体内产生的肾上腺素可能导致心脏病发作，甚至突然死亡。文章强调了这种死亡的原因是心脏的故障而非恐惧本身，而任何增加肾上腺素水平的事件都可能导致这种危险状况发生。因此，应该在受控制的情况下享受万圣节的乐趣。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The key factor in an imagined scare-caused death is a little chemical that anyone who’s played a particularly intense game of hide-and-seek is very familiar with: adrenaline (肾上腺素). Fear puts the body in a state of severe emotional anxiety, which in turn causes the autonomic fight-or-flight response.(想象中的恐惧导致死亡的关键因素是一种小化学物质，任何玩过特别激烈的捉迷藏游戏的人都非常熟悉：肾上腺素。恐惧使身体处于一种严重的情绪焦虑状态，进而引起自主神经系统的应战或逃跑反应)”可推知，战逃反应是有助于我们更好地生存。故选D。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“You sweat a lot(你出汗很多)”以及划线词后文的“your blood glucose (葡萄糖) levels are increased, and your heart rate is higher.(你的血糖水平升高，心率加快)”可知，出汗很多，血糖上升，心率加快，此时焦虑程度更加严重。由此可知，划线词与C选项“worsened(加重，更糟糕)”为同义词。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Adrenaline causes calcium (钙) to enter the heart at a higher rate, and when there’s more calcium rushing through the heart, it has harder time resetting to its normal resting rate. (肾上腺素导致钙以更高的速率进入心脏，当有更多的钙通过心脏时，它很难恢复到正常的静息速率)”可知，在危险情况下，心跳是不规律的。故选D。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“So if you are planning on scaring others the next Halloween season, be sure to do it in a controlled setting, especially if you have a history of heart problems.(所以，如果你打算在下一个万圣节吓唬别人，一定要在一个可控的环境中进行，尤其是如果你有心脏病史的话)”可知，文章建议在一个可控的环境中或者以一种可控的方式来享受万圣节。故选A。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“The key factor in an imagined scare-caused death is a little chemical that anyone who’s played a particularly intense game of hide-and-seek is very familiar with: adrenaline (肾上腺素). (想象中的恐惧导致死亡的关键因素是一种小化学物质，任何玩过特别激烈的捉迷藏游戏的人都非常熟悉：肾上腺素)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要讲述的是人们因为恐怖而激动，体内产生的肾上腺素可能导致心脏病发作，甚至突然死亡。由此可知，B选项“Is it possible to be scared to death?(有可能被吓死吗？)”适合作文章标题。故选B。 D “Girls are weak, and boys are strong. This is what is being subconsciously communicated to hundreds of millions of young boys and girls all over the world, just like it was with me,” said American actor Justin Baldoni. As a boy, all he wanted was to be accepted by other people. That acceptance meant he had to pretend to be strong when he was weak, confident when he felt insecure, and tough when he was actually hurting. Is that a healthy lifestyle? A member of the CPPCC Standing Committee might say “yes”. In his proposal, he spoke of a need to “prevent the feminization of male youths”. In response to his call, China’s Ministry of Education has recently demanded that schools should hire more physical education teachers and improve teaching methods to cultivate masculinity in students. The response has been widely debated online, with many people saying that it reinforces gender stereotypes. The state broadcaster CCTV wrote on its Weibo account, “Education is not simply about cultivating men and women. It’s more important to develop a willingness to take responsibility.” You might be wondering now: What is masculinity, and why is this so controversial? Well, by itself, “masculinity” refers to the qualities traditionally considered to be typical of men. While there is not really a single “correct” set of qualities, the term is often associated with strength, courage, assertiveness, and emotional control. Sometimes, however, these seemingly admirable qualities can be extended in unrealistic ways. But boys are also human. Blindly asking them to control their feelings “like a man” can only increase their stress when they grow up. As an educator who has spent years teaching in China, I agree that attaching more importance to physical education would definitely benefit students. Sports provide opportunities for physical fitness. More importantly, they can help develop lifelong skills, such as leadership and communication skills. However, putting the emphasis on masculinity is far from a sound reason for which to do so. It is unnecessary for all boys to build up their muscles, but it is essential that they all learn how to be strong inside. It is also fine for boys to cry and to show their weakness. Schools should work on equipping students with the skills and values they will need to be successful in life, not reinforcing stereotypes of masculinity borrowed from a bygone age. 51. Why did young Justin Baldoni think it necessary to pretend to be what he was actually not? A. He was trying to be strong and confident. B. He wanted to be accepted as a real man. C. It was necessary for an actor to be strong and tough. D. He felt it secure and safe to do so. 52. The underlined expression “masculinity” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “__________” A. manly qualities B. potential abilities C. self-centredness D. steady strength 53. What is the argument against the demand of China’s Ministry of Education? A. It is necessary to prevent the feminization of male youths. B. Physical education should be paid more attention to. C. We should teach students according to their individual qualities. D. Importance should be attached to developing students’ sense of responsibility. 54. What can we learn from the passage? A. Masculinity is out of date. B. Masculinity is overstated. C. Masculinity shows physical strength. D. Masculinity only focuses on physical fitness. 55. What does the author want to say in the article? A. We should do everything we can to guarantee students’ health. B. Schools should differentiate between boys and girls while educating them. C. It is important to prepare students with necessary skills and right values. D. It is time to weaken stereotypes of masculinity. 【答案】51. B 52. A 53. D 54. B 55. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。一位中国政协常委在他的提案中，他提到了“防止年轻男性女性化”的必要性。为了响应他的号召，中国教育部最近要求学校应该聘请更多的体育教师，改进教学方法，培养学生的男子气概。文章论述了人们对此回应的各种看法。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“As a boy, all he wanted was to be accepted by other people. That acceptance meant he had to pretend to be strong when he was weak, confident when he felt insecure, and tough when he was actually hurting.(作为一个男孩，他唯一想要的就是被其他人接受。这种接受意味着他必须在软弱的时候假装坚强，在没有安全感的时候假装自信，在真正受伤的时候假装坚强)”可知，年轻的贾斯汀·巴尔多尼认为有必要假装成他实际上不是的样子，因为他想被当作一个真正的男人来接受。故选B。 52题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“In his proposal, he spoke of a need to “prevent the feminization of male youths”. In response to his call, China’s Ministry of Education has recently demanded that schools should hire more physical education teachers and improve teaching methods to cultivate masculinity in students.(在他的提案中，他提到了“防止年轻男性女性化”的必要性。为了响应他的号召，中国教育部最近要求学校应该聘请更多的体育教师，改进教学方法，培养学生的男子气概)”可推知，划线词masculinity(男子气概)很可能指的是“适于男人的品质”。故选A。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The response has been widely debated online, with many people saying that it reinforces gender stereotypes. The state broadcaster CCTV wrote on its Weibo account, “Education is not simply about cultivating men and women. It’s more important to develop a willingness to take responsibility.”(这一回应在网上引起了广泛的讨论，许多人说这强化了性别刻板印象。中央电视台在其微博上写道：“教育不仅仅是培养男人和女人。更重要的是培养承担责任的意愿。”)”可知，反对中国教育部要求的理由是应该重视培养学生的责任感。故选D。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据四段中的“But boys are also human. Blindly asking them to control their feelings “like a man” can only increase their stress when they grow up. (但男孩也是人。盲目地要求他们“像男人一样”控制自己的感情只会增加他们长大后的压力)”和最后一段中的“Schools should work on equipping students with the skills and values they will need to be successful in life,not reinforcing stereotypes of masculinity borrowed from a bygone age.(学校应该致力于培养学生在生活中取得成功所需的技能和价值观，而不是强化从过去时代借来的男子气概的刻板印象)”可知，目前男子气概被夸大了。故选B。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Schools should work on equipping students with the skills and values they will need to be successful in life,not reinforcing stereotypes of masculinity borrowed from a bygone age.(学校应该致力于培养学生在生活中取得成功所需的技能和价值观，而不是强化从过去时代借来的男子气概的刻板印象)”可推知，作者在文章中想说的是，让学生具备必要的技能和正确的价值观是很重要的。故选C。 第II卷(35分) 第三部分: 写作 第一节、阅读表达(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分) 阅读短文, 并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything. On previous trips, we hadn’t made any real contact with the people of that city. This time we’d make it. One evening, we found a tiny cafe known only to the locals, and went inside. We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen. Moments later, a young woman led us to our seats at the other end of a table already occupied by an elderly couple. She gave us two menus, but unfortunately, there was no picture attached to each dish. For a few minutes, we struggled to recall a few French words, but discovered that the descriptions of each dish were too hard for us. Our table mates noticed our difficulty. The old man began explaining each dish, one at a time. Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds. For example, for the beef dish, he pretended that his hands were horns on both sides of his head, accompanied by a cow’s sound. When the young waitress returned, we placed our order and our new friends gave her instructions on how to prepare the food. Despite our limited ability to speak French, we continued our lively conversation throughout the meal. We talked about the beauty of Paris, our lives and our families. Near the end of the evening, a flower seller made her way through the cafe. We watched the old gentleman purchase a bunch of flowers. Artfully, he picked up two roses from the bunch, presented them to his lady, and gave her a kiss. Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us. We found our Paris. And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris. 56. What does the underlined part in paragraph 1 probably mean?(no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the cafe owner’s smile gradually disappear?(no more than 10 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 58. Why did the old man make animal sounds?(no more than 10 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 59. How was that evening the author and Peggy spent with their new friends?(no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What impression do you think the author might have on Paris after the experience in the cafe?(no more than 20 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Visit it alone. /Visit it on our own. / Visit it without being accompanied. 57. Because he found it difficult to communicate with the guests. 58. To more vividly explain dishes to the author and Peggy. 59. It was fantastic and unforgettable. 60. Her impression may be that Paris has not only beautiful scenery but also has very kind, friendly citizens. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者和朋友Peggy以前去巴黎都是跟团游，但这次是自由行，他们想自由探索。他们去了一家当地小咖啡馆，店主不会英语，他们法语也不好。一对老夫妇帮助他们点餐，通过手势和动物声音解释菜品。最后，老人送给他们玫瑰花，他们度过了一个难忘的夜晚。 【56题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第一段“My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything.(我和我的朋友佩吉以前都去过巴黎，但总是报名参加旅行团，参观所有常见的旅游景点，听同样的导游讲解。这将是第一次visit it on our Jack Jones，在任何地方都可以自由地尝试任何事情。)”可知，作者和朋友这次旅行没有跟团，而是独自游览。visit it on our Jack Jones意为“独自地参观游览”。故答案为Visit it alone. / Visit it on our own. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen.(我们受到了店主的欢迎，当他发现佩吉和我不是法国人，而且法语掌握得非常有限时，他的笑容逐渐消失了。他也不会说英语，所以他退到厨房。)”可知，老板发现顾客法语不好且自己不会说英语，和他们沟通困难。故答案为 Because he found it hard to communicate with them. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段“Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds.(由于他很少说英语，他的翻译采用了手势和动物声音的形式。)”可知，老人因语言不通，借助手势和声音是为了生动地解释菜品。故答案为 To explain dishes to them vividly due to language barrier. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us.(然后，他朝我们的方向潇洒地鞠了一躬，拿出那两朵玫瑰，我们每人一朵。)”和最后一段“And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris.”可知，这个夜晚美妙且难忘。故答案为 Fantastic and unforgettable. 【60题详解】 考查阅读表达。通读全文并结合文中既提到“the beauty of Paris”，又通过老年夫妇的热心帮助展现了当地人的友善与热情。作者的印象应涵盖风景与人文两方面，她可能认为巴黎不仅美丽，而且到处是善良友好的人民。故答案为 She may think Paris is not only beautiful but also full of kind and friendly people. 第二节、书面表达(共1小题; 共25分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学学生李津，为了通过短视频展示家庭的爱与温暖，你校英语俱乐部将于5月10日至5月30日开展主题为“我爱我家”(I Love My Family)短视频比赛(Short Video Contest)，请用英语拟一份书面活动通知，内容包括： 1. 活动介绍(目的、主题、时间)； 2. 拍摄内容(围绕“我爱我家”主题，展现家庭生活)； 3. 参赛要求及奖励(英文字幕、不超过10分钟、原创、获奖作品校园网播放)。 注意：1. 词数不少于100；2. 可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯。 参考词汇：字幕 subtitle NOTICE ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The School English Club 【答案】NOTICE To capture and share the touching moments of family life and foster a deeper appreciation for family bonds, the School English Club is going to hold a Short Video Contest with the theme of “I Love My Family” running from May 10th to May 30th.
