Academic competitions not only highlight your intellectual abilities but also help demonstrate teamwork and problem-solving skills. The Slingshot Challenge The Slingshot Challenge is an initiative by the National Geographic Society that encourages young people aged 13 to 18 to come up with innovative solutions to environmental issues. Participants can submit a one-minute video outlining their ideas for a chance to win up to $10,000 in funding to implement their projects. Chemical Educational Foundation’s The Challenge Although it’s only open to middle school students in grades 5-8, the Chemical Education Foundation’s The Challenge is an opportunity for budding scientists to explore their interests in STEM fields! Teams of 3-4participants compete in exciting, time-based rounds of questions and responses. Additionally, teams get to create original videos to “launch a start-up company” around community-based sustainability solutions.

The top prize is one of the most exciting writing awards for high schoolers in the country.(约翰·洛克研究所是一个面向高中生的独特作文比赛。最高奖是该国高中生最激动人心的写作奖之一)”可知，约翰·洛克研究所竞赛要求参与者提交文章。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据文章第二段The Slingshot Challenge部分中“Participants can submit a one-minute video outlining their ideas for a chance to win up to $10,000 in funding to implement their projects.(参与者可以提交一段一分钟的视频，概述他们的想法，以获得高达10000美元的资金来实施他们的项目)”以及倒数第二段John Locke Institute Competition部分中“The top three composers in each category receive cash prizes, as well as professional performances and recordings of their works!(每个类别中排名前三位的作曲家将获得现金奖励，以及专业表演和他们的作品录音！)”可知，弹弓挑战和全国青年作曲家挑战赛的共同点是获胜者将获得经济奖励。故选D。 23．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In the highly competitive college admissions landscape, extracurriculars are often the key differentiators (区分因素). Academic competitions not only highlight your intellectual abilities but also help demonstrate teamwork and problem-solving skills.(在竞争激烈的大学录取环境中，课外活动往往是关键的区别因素。学术竞赛不仅凸显了你的智力，还有助于展示你的团队合作和解决问题的能力)”以及后文对四个竞赛的介绍可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是为了给学生推荐竞赛。故选B。 B As long as she can remember, Khadijah has floated from shelters to parks to motels along the West Coast with her mother, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She has attended 12 schools in 12 years. She was used to the teasing of students at a dozen schools who labeled her as “different”. “I have felt the anger at having to catch up in school… I was bullied because they knew I was poor, different, and read too much,” she wrote in her college essays. However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. Khadijah was in third grade when she first realized the power of test scores, placing in the 99th percentile (百分位数) on a state exam — that is, only 1% of students across the country tested better than she did. Her teachers marked the 9-year-old as gifted, a special category that Khadijah, even at that early age, promised to keep. “I still remember that exact number,” Khadijah said. And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to stay, regardless of where her mother moved. Graduation was not far off and she needed strong college letters of recommendation from teachers who were familiar with her work. This decision meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p. m. She kept her grade-point average at just below a 4.0 while participating in the Academic Decathlon (十项全能), the debate team and leading the school’s track and field team. Her hard work paid off when she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application — and was accepted. Now as a successful student at Harvard, Khadijah continues to use the lessons of her extraordinary life to help and inspire other students. 24．What did some of Khadijah’s classmates think of her? A．She was optimistic. B．She was distinctive. C．She was distinguished. D．She was considerate. 25．What helped Khadijah to gain confidence? A．Her teacher paid special attention to her. B．She was marked by her classmates as gifted. C．She received recognition for her debating skills. D．Her score was better than 99% of others on a national test. 26．Why did Khadijah determine to stay at Jefferson High School? A．She had to stay where her mother moved. B．She was tired of keep moving from place to place. C．She wanted to participate in the Academic Decathlon. D．She wanted to make preparations for applying to universities. 27．What can we learn from Khadijah’s story? A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Good things come to those who wait. C．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D．Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．D 27．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位名叫Khadijah的女孩，自幼在西海岸的避难所、公园和汽车旅馆之间漂泊生活，她通过努力学习和坚持不懈的奋斗，克服无家可归和贫穷的困境，最终考入哈佛大学的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“She was used to the teasing of students at a dozen schools who labeled her as “different”.(她习惯了来自十几个学校的同学的嘲笑，他们称她为“与众不同的人”)”可知，同学们认为她与众不同，故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Khadijah was in third grade when she first realized the power of test scores, placing in the 99th percentile (百分位数) on a state exam — that is, only 1% of students across the country tested better than she did.(Khadijah 在三年级时第一次意识到考试分数的力量，在一次州级考试中，她的成绩达到了第99百分位——也就是说，全国只有1%的学生比她表现得更好)”可知，她在考试中表现优异，超过99%的学生，因此获得了自信。故选D。 26．细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to stay, regardless of where her mother moved. Graduation was not far off and she needed strong college letters of recommendation from teachers who were familiar with her work.(到了11年级，当她进入杰斐逊高中时，她决定无论母亲搬到哪里，她都要留在原地。毕业已近在眼前，她需要熟悉她工作的老师写强有力的大学推荐信)”可知，为了准备申请大学，Khadijh决定留在杰斐逊高中，以便老师了解她的表现。故选D。 27．推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“This decision meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p. m. She kept her grade-point average at just below a 4.0 while participating in the Academic Decathlon (十项全能), the debate team and leading the school’s track and field team.(这个决定意味着她每天早上4点就要乘公交车上学，晚上11点才能回家。她在参加学术十项全能、辩论队和领导校田径队的同时，保持了接近4.0的平均成绩)”，以及最后一段中“Her hard work paid off when she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application — and was accepted.(她的辛勤努力得到了回报，当她将自己的人生故事写入哈佛大学的申请材料中时，她被录取了)”可推知，Khadijah克服困难，凭借努力进入哈佛大学，体现了“有志者事竟成”。故选C。 C Thirty years ago, while working on a right whale research project in the Bay of Fundy, Canada, I witnessed a remarkable sight. A male right whale with mud on its head, indicating it had been feeding at the bottom, came up to breathe and rest. Just before diving again, it let out a huge mass of poop(粪便). The water was filled with poop that looked like red floating bricks and had a strong, unpleasant smell. If it got on your clothes, you’d have to discard them as it couldn’t be washed out. This initial encounter later inspired me to conduct global search for whale poop, taking me from Iceland to Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii. Right whale poop has a particularly strong and awful smell, but I’ve come to appreciate it. Whale poop provides valuable insights. It shows what whales eat, their hormones, if they’re ready to reproduce, how stressed they are, what’s in their gut(内脏), and their family tree. It also helps us assess the level of mercury and pollution in the ocean. This experience set the path for my research career. Two years after seeing whale poop for the first time, I took an ocean ecology class and learned about the biological pump. Phytoplankton(浮游植物)grows near the ocean surface and through the food chain, nutrients can sink to the deep sea. However, I realized that right whales, which feed at depth and poop at the surface, likely bring nutrients like iron and so on back up. This led to the concept of the “whale pump”, which does the opposite of the biological pump by pumping nutrients back to the surface. These nutrients can be absorbed by phytoplankton and flow through the ocean food chain. This is important because some people in Japan, Norway, and Iceland think whales eat “our fish” and cause fish numbers to drop. The whale pump shows that the relationship is more complex and that whales might actually increase fish populations. Whale poop not only helps us understand the present ocean but also gives us a look into the past when there were more whales. Restoring whales and their nutrient pathways could help make the ocean more diverse. 28．What does the underlined word “discard” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Abandon. B．Wash. C．Keep. D．Appreciate. 29．Why does the author appreciate whale poop? A．It provides a remarkable sight. B．It makes the author travel a lot. C．It looks like red floating bricks. D．It makes precious insights available. 30．What is the effect of the “whale pump”? A．Nutrients float to the surface. B．Fisheries experience a decline. C．The ocean food chain is threatened. D．The environment is polluted severely. 31．What is the purpose of the text? A．To describe the abnormal behavior of right whales. B．To explain the ecological importance of whale poop. C．To argue against the idea that whales harm fisheries. D．To discuss how we can understand the present ocean. 【答案】28．A 29．D 30．A 31．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了鲸鱼粪便的生态重要性。作者通过自身研究经历，说明鲸鱼粪便如何提供宝贵信息，促进海洋生态循环，并反驳了鲸鱼导致鱼类减少的观点，强调恢复鲸鱼数量对海洋多样性的积极意义。 28．词句猜测题。根据第一段“The water was filled with poop that looked like red floating bricks and had a strong, unpleasant smell. If it got on your clothes, you’d have to discard them as it couldn’t be washed out(水里布满了看起来像红色漂浮砖块的粪便，且散发着强烈、难闻的气味。如果它沾到你的衣服上，你就得把衣服……，因为它洗不掉)”可知，如果像红色漂浮砖块的粪便沾到你的衣服上，它是洗不掉的，所以衣服只能扔掉，可推理出“discard”在上下文中指因无法清洗而“丢弃”衣物，故选A。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段“Right whale poop has a particularly strong and awful smell, but I’ve come to appreciate it. Whale poop provides valuable insights. It shows what whales eat, their hormones, if they’re ready to reproduce, how stressed they are, what’s in their gut(内脏), and their family tree. It also helps us assess the level of mercury and pollution in the ocean(座头鲸的粪便气味尤其强烈且令人不适，但我渐渐学会了欣赏它。鲸粪提供了宝贵的研究信息。它能显示鲸鱼的饮食习惯、它们的激素水平、是否准备繁殖、它们的压力程度、它们肠道里的情况以及它们的家族谱系。此外，它还有助于我们评估海洋中的汞含量和污染程度)”可知，作者重视鲸鱼粪便是因为它能提供珍贵的研究数据，故选D。 30．细节理解题。根据第三段“This led to the concept of the “whale pump”, which does the opposite of the biological pump by pumping nutrients back to the surface(这引出了“鲸泵”的概念，它与生物泵的作用相反，将营养物质泵回到海洋表面)”可知，鲸鱼泵的作用是将营养物质带到海洋表面，故选A。 31．推理判断题。根据第一段“A male right whale with mud on its head, indicating it had been feeding at the bottom, came up to breathe and rest. Just before diving again, it let out a huge mass of poop(粪便). The water was filled with poop that looked like red floating bricks and had a strong, unpleasant smell.(一头露脊鲸头部沾满淤泥，表明它刚刚在海底觅食，它游上来呼吸并休息。就在它再次潜入水中之前，排泄出了一大团粪便。水中布满了看起来像红色漂浮砖块的粪便，散发着强烈且难闻的气味)”、第二段“Right whale poop has a particularly strong and awful smell, but I’ve come to appreciate it. Whale poop provides valuable insights. It shows what whales eat, their hormones, if they’re ready to reproduce, how stressed they are, what’s in their gut(内脏), and their family tree. It also helps us assess the level of mercury and pollution in the ocean(座头鲸的粪便气味尤其强烈且令人不适，但我渐渐学会了欣赏它。鲸粪提供了宝贵的研究信息。它能显示鲸鱼的饮食习惯、它们的激素水平、是否准备繁殖、它们的压力程度、它们肠道里的情况以及它们的家族谱系。此外，它还有助于我们评估海洋中的汞含量和污染程度)”、第三段“This led to the concept of the “whale pump”, which does the opposite of the biological pump by pumping nutrients back to the surface(这引出了“鲸泵”的概念，它与生物泵的作用相反，将营养物质泵回到海洋表面)”以及最后一段“Whale poop not only helps us understand the present ocean but also gives us a look into the past when there were more whales. Restoring whales and their nutrient pathways could help make the ocean more diverse(鲸粪不仅有助于我们了解如今的海洋，还能让我们回顾过去鲸鱼数量更多的时代。恢复鲸鱼数量及其营养循环路径，可使海洋变得更加多样化)”可知，文章围绕鲸鱼粪便的生态作用展开，包括其研究价值、促进营养循环的“鲸鱼泵”机制及对海洋多样性的意义，可推理出本文的写作目的是解释鲸鱼粪便的生态重要性，故选B。 D When preparing for a test, most students assume it’s best to simply study the material and try to memorize as much of it as possible. Many tests seemingly reward rote (死记硬背) memorization. But what if students trained by testing themselves instead? Usually, studying is considered a safer bet; why risk producing wrong answers when you can just memorize the right one? Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. Cognitive psychologists Henry Roddy Roediger and Jeff Karpicke conducted a study where they had hundreds of students memorize passages from a test-preparation book for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). One group memorized these passages by reading them repeatedly, while another group read the passages several times and then completed three tests. The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied. The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. Its value remains undoubted, but scientists are still debating why it has such a powerful effect on memory. The simplest explanation is that testing exposes our weaknesses. When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元的) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. This allows your brain to consolidate the information and create stronger memories. In conclusion, testing is not just a tool for assessing your knowledge but also a powerful learning tool. By embracing errors and actively testing yourself, you can improve your learning and memory. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, embrace them as opportunities for growth and mastery. 32．What do we know about Henry and Jeff’s study? A．Self-testing works only in tasks of memorizing things. B．Those who repeatedly studied performed better later. C．Rote memorization doesn’t work well in the long run. D．The study focused mainly on how to prepare for TOFEL. 33．What happens to the brain when people test their memories? A．Additional neuronal connections in the brain are created. B．The brain processes new information at a higher speed. C．The weak connections between neurons are removed. D．Weak but useful neuronal connections become stronger. 34．What is an effective way to study according to paragraph 4? A．Avoiding making the same mistakes in tests. B．Studying everything intensely on a single night. C．Reviewing in shorter sessions over several days. D．Focusing on what is most likely to be on the test. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Cramming for Exams: A Safer Bet for Success B．The Testing Effect: Why Practice Makes Perfect C．The Power of Testing: An Effective Approach to Learning D．The Secret of Learning: How Brains Process Information 【答案】32．C 33．D 34．C 35．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了测试效应作为一种有效的学习方法，通过自我测试可以提高记忆和学习效果。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied.”（结果是令人惊讶的：那些反复学习材料的学生一开始表现更好，但当他们一周后再次接受测试时，那些自我测试的学生回忆起了60%以上所学的内容，而反复学习的学生只回忆起了40%。）可知，死记硬背从长远来看效果并不好。故选C。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段的“When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元的) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. (当我们测试自己的记忆力时，我们会以一种方式暴露现有神经元连接的弱点，这种方式最终会强化有用的连接，去除无用的连接，从而使我们试图记住的信息更加持久，也更容易回想起来。)”可知，测试记忆时，大脑会暴露并强化有用的神经元连接，同时去除无用的连接，由此可知，弱但有用的神经元连接被暴露并得到加强。故选D。 34．推理判断题。根据第四段的“To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. (为了最大限度地发挥测试效果的益处，重要的是在几天内分多个较短的时段来复习同样的知识内容，而不是把所有东西都集中在一个晚上进行高强度的学习。)”可知，有效的学习方法是分几天进行短时间复习，而不是一晚上突击学习，由此可推知，在几天内分多次短时段复习材料是有效的学习方法。故选C。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. (然而，事实证明，早期犯错从长远来看可能更有助于记忆信息。)”以及第三段中的“The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. (测试效应已经在多种条件下通过许多研究得到了证实。)”可知，本文的核心在于探讨测试作为一种有效的学习工具的力量，而且测试对学习和记忆的强大效果，所以“测试的力量：一种有效的学习方法。”概括了全文的主题，是最佳标题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the primary goals of cognitive behavioral therapy (疗法) is finding effective ways to channel your anxiety into productive action. The best possible one is under the care of an experienced mental health care provider. Still, if you are hoping to stop being paralyzed (麻痹) by anxiety and use this energy to fuel and improve your life, you can. 36 Set a goal. Goal-setting is one way to use your anxiety as fuel. Take notice of your anxious thoughts and worries. What are you most concerned about? 37 Instead of shaking in your boots, get down to developing a plan that allows you to overcome these fears. Challenge yourself regularly to build resilience. Think of your resilience to anxiety as a muscle. 38 Rather than avoiding those situations that cause anxiety, gradually expose yourself to them more often. When you do this, you will find that, over time, they lose their power. For instance, if you hate public speaking, you might benefit from signing up for a local Toastmasters club. Doing so will allow you to practice speaking in front of a group more often, which will reduce your anxiety. 39 Anxiety can feel like a live wire in your body. You can’t sit still or focus. Exercise is a great activity to make use of this spare energy. Exercise offers a host of benefits like fighting off illness and helping you manage weight. One of the benefits most helpful to you, however, is its ability to neutralize anxiety and improve your mood. Perform reality testing. You don’t have to become a slave to your anxious thoughts, giving them permission to get you all worked up. 40 Reality testing involves assessing a situation for errors in thinking. To assess the reality of this situation, you want to ask what evidence is there that says this is true. Did your friends actually call you lame? Are they avoiding you? A．What are your biggest fears? B．Put them to the test instead. C．Burn off nervous energy with physical activity. D．How can you deal with getting fired if it does happen? E．The more you use the muscle, the stronger it becomes. F．Just transform anxiety into action by using positive strategies. G．When you find yourself becoming anxious, check your thought patterns. 【答案】36．F 37．A 38．E 39．C 40．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出，认知行为疗法的主要目标之一是找到有效的方法将焦虑转化为有成效的行动。本文重点介绍了具体的策略。 36．由上文“One of the primary goals of cognitive behavioral therapy (疗法) is finding effective ways to channel your anxiety into productive action. The best possible one is under the care of an experienced mental health care provider. Still, if you are hoping to stop being paralyzed (麻痹) by anxiety and use this energy to fuel and improve your life, you can.

(设定目标。设定目标是利用焦虑作为动力的一种方式。)”对利用焦虑作为动力提出建议可知，本空应承上启下，强调要将焦虑转化为行动，F选项中action对应上文productive action，且positive strategies对应下文Set a goal等积极策略，F选项“Just transform anxiety into action by using positive strategies. (只需运用积极的策略将焦虑转化为行动。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选F。 37．由上文“Set a goal. Goal-setting is one way to use your anxiety as fuel. Take notice of your anxious thoughts and worries. What are you most concerned about?  (设定目标。设定目标是利用焦虑作为动力的一种方式。注意你的焦虑和担忧。你最关心的是什么？)”和下文“Instead of shaking in your boots, get down to developing a plan that allows you to overcome these fears. (不要畏缩不前，而是着手制定一个能让你克服这些恐惧的计划。)”可知，上文提到设定目标并利用焦虑作为动力，并询问你最关心的是什么，下文提出不要畏缩，本空应进一步提问最害怕的是什么。A选项“What are your biggest fears? (你最害怕的是什么？)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选A。 38．由上文“Challenge yourself regularly to build resilience. Think of your resilience to anxiety as a muscle. (定期挑战自己以增强韧性。把你的抗焦虑韧性想象成一块肌肉。)”及下文“Rather than avoiding those situations that cause anxiety, gradually expose yourself to them more often. (与其避免那些会引起焦虑的情况，不如让自己更频繁地接触这些情况。)”可知，上文提到把抗焦虑韧性想象成一块肌肉，下文则指出要让自己更频繁地接触焦虑情况，本空应强调锻炼这块“肌肉”，“The more you use the muscle, the stronger it becomes. (你越使用这块肌肉，它就越强壮。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选E。 39．由下文“Anxiety can feel like a live wire in your body. You can’t sit still or focus. Exercise is a great activity to make use of this spare energy. (焦虑就像你体内的一根带电的电线。你无法静坐或集中注意力。运动是利用这种多余能量的好方法。)”可知，本段主要讲的是通过运动来消耗因焦虑而产生的多余能量，C选项“Burn off nervous energy with physical activity. (通过体育活动消耗紧张的能量。)”能够概括本段主旨，符合题意。故选C。 40．由上文“You don’t have to become a slave to your anxious thoughts, giving them permission to get you all worked up. (你不必成为焦虑想法的奴隶，允许它们让你紧张不安。)”及下文“Reality testing involves assessing a situation for errors in thinking. (现实测试涉及对一种情况进行评估，以找出思维中的错误。)”可知，上文指出不要成为焦虑想法的奴隶，下文则提到现实测试可以评估一种情况以找出思维中的错误，本空应强调对焦虑进行测试，而不是被其控制，B选项“Put them to the test instead. (相反，要对它们进行测试。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 “Can we pick this one, Dad? ” my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks. We’re on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for 41 mushrooms. She’s pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while safe to eat if 42 properly, is also a known poison. I don’t think our adventures are ready to get quite that 43 yet. Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily 44 , but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life. Some of these skills, like mushroom 45 , are what I’ve always had an interest in but never had the motivation to pick up. And there’s so much more. Last year, Alicia took up skiing. After a winter of pizza-ing every week on the green tracks, which are intended for 46 , Alicia french-frying her way down blues and even 47 her first black (for experts). That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years 48 and now I’ve got myself a partner for life. It’s not all easy — 49 sometimes that’s the point. Alicia practices the violin every day, and although she enjoys it, even 15 minutes of practice can 50 her. The trick, I’ve found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too. I start 51 piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me 52 as I practice, she’ll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll 53 on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the 54 of knowledge through life. My mother was visiting us a few months ago. As Alicia talked to her while walking through the woods, my mom asked, “Alicia, how do you know so many things? ” My daughter said, “I’ve been 55 knowing things for four years. ” 41．A．poisonous B．mysterious C．eatable D．valuable 42．A．prepared B．dried C．frozen D．preserved 43．A．ambitious B．adventurous C．courageous D．joyous 44．A．demanding B．surprising C．challenging D．rewarding 45．A．planting B．cooking C．eating D．hunting 46．A．adults B．children C．players D．beginners 47．A．attempted B．skied C．jumped D．completed 48．A．combined B．passed C．later D．before 49．A．so B．but C．because D．though 50．A．tire B．disappoint C．annoy D．hurt 51．A．planning B．reviewing C．taking D．giving 52．A．singing B．struggling C．cheering D．learning 53．A．keep up B．end up C．look down D．walk down 54．A．joy B．pain C．recall D．spread 55．A．hearing B．discovering C．acquiring D．practicing 【答案】 41．C 42．A 43．B 44．D 45．D 46．D 47．A 48．A 49．B 50．C 51．C 52．B 53．B 54．A 55．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了父亲陪伴女儿成长，共同学习新技能的故事。 41．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我们正在进行周四的探险之一，在附近的树林里寻找可食用的蘑菇。A. poisonous有毒的；B. mysterious神秘的；C. eatable可食用的；D. valuable有价值的。根据后文“while safe to eat”可知，是在找能吃的蘑菇。故选C。 42．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我拿出便捷的蘑菇识别应用程序，上面注明毒蝇伞如果处理得当食用是安全的，但也是一种已知的毒物。A. prepared处理，准备；B. dried干燥；C. frozen冷冻；D. preserved保存。根据前文“while safe to eat”可知，这里指对蘑菇进行恰当处理。故选A。 43．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我觉得我们的探险还没准备好变得那么冒险。A. ambitious有雄心的；B. adventurous冒险的；C. courageous勇敢的；D. joyous快乐的。根据前文“is also a known poison”可知，因为毒蝇伞有毒，所以说没准备好那么冒险。故选B。 44．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：看着孩子们学习新技能是非常有意义的，但我在这个生命阶段经历了比以往任何时候更多的个人成长。A. demanding要求高的；B. surprising令人惊讶的；C. challenging有挑战性的；D. rewarding有意义的。根据后文“but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life”可知，孩子学新技能对家长来说是有意义的事。故选D。 45．考查动名词词义辨析。句意：其中一些技能，比如寻找蘑菇，是我一直感兴趣但从未有动力去学的。A. planting种植；B. cooking烹饪；C. eating吃；D. hunting寻找。根据前文“searching the nearby woods”可知，在树林找蘑菇，这里指寻找蘑菇这项技能。故选D。 46．考查名词词义辨析。句意：经过一个冬天每周在绿色滑道上“披萨式刹车”滑行，这些滑道是为初学者准备的，Alicia已经能在蓝色滑道上“薯条式平行”滑行，甚至尝试了她的第一条黑道 (专家级)。A. adults成年人；B. children孩子；C. players玩家；D. beginners初学者。根据后文“Alicia french-frying her way down blues”及“her first black (for experts)”可知，绿色滑道难度低，是给初学者用的。故选D。 47．考查动词词义辨析。句意：经过一个冬天每周在绿色滑道上“披萨式刹车”滑行，这些滑道是为初学者准备的，Alicia已经能在蓝色滑道上“薯条式平行”滑行，甚至尝试了她的第一条黑道 (专家级)。A. attempted尝试；B. skied滑雪；C. jumped跳跃；D. completed完成。根据前文“Alicia french-frying her way down blues”及后文“her first black (for experts)”可知，说明完成了蓝道滑行，尝试了第一条黑道。故选A。 48．考查动词和副词词义辨析。句意：那个月我去山上的次数比之前15年加起来都多，现在我有了一个终身的伙伴。A. combined结合；B. passed经过；C. later后来；D. before之前。根据前文“in the 15 years”可知，这里是和之前15年总和作比较。故选A。 49．考查连词词义辨析。句意：这并不容易——但有时候这就是重点。A. so所以；B. but但是；C. because因为；D. though尽管。根据前文“It’s not all easy”和后文“that’s the point”可知，前后句是转折关系。故选B。 50．考查动词词义辨析。句意：Alicia每天练习小提琴，虽然她喜欢，但即使15分钟的练习也会让她疲惫。A. tire使疲惫；B. disappoint使失望；C. annoy使恼怒；D. hurt伤害。根据后文“The trick, I’ve found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too.”可知，让孩子看我把事情一点一点变好，是因为重复性练习让孩子恼怒。故选C。 51．考查动名词词义辨析。句意：我41岁开始上钢琴课，想着如果她看到我在练习时奋斗的样子，她就会明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。A. planning计划；B. reviewing复习；C. taking上(课)；D. giving给。根据后文“piano lessons”可知，固定搭配take lessons，意为“上课”。故选C。 52．考查动名词词义辨析。句意：我41岁开始上钢琴课，想着如果她看到我在练习时奋斗的样子，她就会明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。A. singing唱歌；B. struggling奋斗，挣扎；C. cheering欢呼；D. learning学习。根据后文“things don’t come easy”可知，练习时奋斗的状态。故选B。 53．考查动词短语辨析。句意：我知道会有那么一天，我最终会在场边为她加油，看着她找到自己的热爱。A. keep up保持；B. end up最终；C. look down俯视；D. walk down沿着……走。根据后文“cheering her on as she finds her own passions”可知，这里指最终的状态。故选B。 54．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我对此没问题，我希望到那时她能带着知识的喜悦度过一生。A. joy喜悦；B. pain痛苦；C. recall回忆；D. spread传播。根据前文“I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the”可知，作者希望孩子带着从知识获取中的喜悦生活。故选A。 55．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我女儿说：“我四年来一直在学习知识。”A. hearing听到；B. discovering发现；C. acquiring获取；D. practicing练习。根据前文“mushrooms”、“skiing”和“practices the violin”可知，作者和女儿一起经历了很多事情，体现出女儿是通过亲身经历来认识世界的，强调实践的过程。故选D。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或所给单词的正确形式。 French theater director Jean-Jacques Annaud, also known as Sommier, has made outstanding contributions to Sino-French cultural exchanges.

It is the tale of Emily, a young woman adopted as a child, who grew up, showing selflessness. Emily was a spirited 25-year-old, with a heart as broad as the Lone Star State. She was adopted by the Smith family. From the moment Emily entered their lives, the Smiths have devoted themselves to providing her with a loving and stable home. They made sure she had a warm bed to sleep in every night, cooked delicious and nutritious meals for her every day. They encouraged her to pursue her hobbies and interests, whether it was painting, which the y would display proudly on the walls of their home, or playing the piano, for which they arranged lessons. Their love and care enveloped Emily as she grew up. Her bond with her adoptive mother, Susan, was particularly profound. “You’re my world, Emily,” Susan would often say, her eyes full of care and affection. In the spring of 2024, Susan was struck by a sudden and severe liver (肝) condition. The doctors in San Antoni o delivered the cruel news that a liver transplant (移植) was Susan’s only hope for survival. The family, desperate, began the search for a donor. “We have to find a match,” the doctor urged. However, among Susan’s immediate family, none were a match for her liver. "It's like we’re hitting a dead end,“Susan’s husband, Mark Smith, said sadly. Emily, unable to bear the thought of losing her mother, decided to get tested as a potential living donor. “Let me try,” she told her father with determination. The results were astonishing — she was a perfect match. But there was a catch. Emily had a chronic (慢性的) condition since childhood, and the doctors warned her that donating a part of her liver could put her in danger. “It’s too risky, Emily,” the doctor said. But Emily replied, “No matter what, I’m going to save my mom.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Emily told all this to her mom, Susan. —————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— However, Emily insisted that her mom accept her liver donation. —————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— 【答案】One possible version: Emily told all this to her mom, Susan. However, when Susan learnt that it would cause great harm to Emily’s body, she strongly refused to allow Emily to donate her liver. “I can’t lose you either,” Susan said, tears streaming down her face. She knew how much Emily had already overcome in her life and she didn’t want to be the cause of any more pain or hardship. She kept repeating that she would rather face her own fate than let Emily take such a huge risk. However, Emily insisted that her mom accept her liver donation. She sat down with Susan, saying, “Mom, you’ve been there for me through every up and down. You’ve given me life. I owe you everything. We can get through this together.” After days of heated discussions, Susan finally agreed. On a warm June morning, the surgery began. Emily’s family and friends gathered, praying and waiting anxiously. Against all odds, the surgery was a huge success. Emily’s liver was partially transplanted into Susan, giving her the gift of life. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了被收养的Emily在养母Susan患严重肝病需肝移植，且家人都不匹配时，自己虽有慢性疾病，仍坚持为母亲捐赠肝脏的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“艾米丽把这一切都告诉了她妈妈苏珊。”可知，第一段可描写Susan得知Emily匹配且有风险后坚决拒绝的反应及理由。 ②由第二段首句内容“然而，艾米丽坚持要她妈妈接受她的肝脏捐赠。”可知，第二段可描写Emily坚持捐赠的劝说过程，手术的开展及最终成功的结果。 2.续写线索：Emily告知母亲匹配及风险——母亲拒绝——Emily坚持劝说——母亲同意——手术进行——手术成功 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拒绝：refuse/decline/reject ②克服：overcome/conquer ③坐下：sit down/take a seat/sit oneself down 情绪类 ①焦虑：anxiously/worried/uneasy ②苦难：hardship/suffering 【点睛】【高分句型1】However, when Susan learnt that it would cause great harm to Emily’s body, she strongly refused to allow Emily to donate her liver.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】She kept repeating that she would rather face her own fate than let Emily take such a huge risk.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★考试结束前 2024-2025学年高二下学期期末模拟卷 英语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．When will the speakers go to the festival?

B As long as she can remember, Khadijah has floated from shelters to parks to motels along the West Coast with her mother, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She has attended 12 schools in 12 years. She was used to the teasing of students at a dozen schools who labeled her as “different”. “I have felt the anger at having to catch up in school… I was bullied because they knew I was poor, different, and read too much,” she wrote in her college essays. However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. Khadijah was in third grade when she first realized the power of test scores, placing in the 99th percentile (百分位数) on a state exam — that is, only 1% of students across the country tested better than she did. Her teachers marked the 9-year-old as gifted, a special category that Khadijah, even at that early age, promised to keep. “I still remember that exact number,” Khadijah said. And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to stay, regardless of where her mother moved. Graduation was not far off and she needed strong college letters of recommendation from teachers who were familiar with her work. This decision meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p. m. She kept her grade-point average at just below a 4.0 while participating in the Academic Decathlon (十项全能), the debate team and leading the school’s track and field team. Her hard work paid off when she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application — and was accepted. Now as a successful student at Harvard, Khadijah continues to use the lessons of her extraordinary life to help and inspire other students. 24．What did some of Khadijah’s classmates think of her? A．She was optimistic. B．She was distinctive. C．She was distinguished. D．She was considerate. 25．What helped Khadijah to gain confidence? A．Her teacher paid special attention to her. B．She was marked by her classmates as gifted. C．She received recognition for her debating skills. D．Her score was better than 99% of others on a national test. 26．Why did Khadijah determine to stay at Jefferson High School? A．She had to stay where her mother moved. B．She was tired of keep moving from place to place. C．She wanted to participate in the Academic Decathlon. D．She wanted to make preparations for applying to universities. 27．What can we learn from Khadijah’s story? A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Good things come to those who wait. C．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D．Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. C Thirty years ago, while working on a right whale research project in the Bay of Fundy, Canada, I witnessed a remarkable sight. A male right whale with mud on its head, indicating it had been feeding at the bottom, came up to breathe and rest. Just before diving again, it let out a huge mass of poop(粪便). The water was filled with poop that looked like red floating bricks and had a strong, unpleasant smell. If it got on your clothes, you’d have to discard them as it couldn’t be washed out. This initial encounter later inspired me to conduct global search for whale poop, taking me from Iceland to Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii. Right whale poop has a particularly strong and awful smell, but I’ve come to appreciate it. Whale poop provides valuable insights. It shows what whales eat, their hormones, if they’re ready to reproduce, how stressed they are, what’s in their gut(内脏), and their family tree. It also helps us assess the level of mercury and pollution in the ocean. This experience set the path for my research career. Two years after seeing whale poop for the first time, I took an ocean ecology class and learned about the biological pump. Phytoplankton(浮游植物)grows near the ocean surface and through the food chain, nutrients can sink to the deep sea. However, I realized that right whales, which feed at depth and poop at the surface, likely bring nutrients like iron and so on back up. This led to the concept of the “whale pump”, which does the opposite of the biological pump by pumping nutrients back to the surface. These nutrients can be absorbed by phytoplankton and flow through the ocean food chain. This is important because some people in Japan, Norway, and Iceland think whales eat “our fish” and cause fish numbers to drop. The whale pump shows that the relationship is more complex and that whales might actually increase fish populations. Whale poop not only helps us understand the present ocean but also gives us a look into the past when there were more whales. Restoring whales and their nutrient pathways could help make the ocean more diverse. 28．What does the underlined word “discard” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Abandon. B．Wash. C．Keep. D．Appreciate. 29．Why does the author appreciate whale poop? A．It provides a remarkable sight. B．It makes the author travel a lot. C．It looks like red floating bricks. D．It makes precious insights available. 30．What is the effect of the “whale pump”? A．Nutrients float to the surface. B．Fisheries experience a decline. C．The ocean food chain is threatened. D．The environment is polluted severely. 31．What is the purpose of the text? A．To describe the abnormal behavior of right whales. B．To explain the ecological importance of whale poop. C．To argue against the idea that whales harm fisheries. D．To discuss how we can understand the present ocean. D When preparing for a test, most students assume it’s best to simply study the material and try to memorize as much of it as possible. Many tests seemingly reward rote (死记硬背) memorization. But what if students trained by testing themselves instead? Usually, studying is considered a safer bet; why risk producing wrong answers when you can just memorize the right one? Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. Cognitive psychologists Henry Roddy Roediger and Jeff Karpicke conducted a study where they had hundreds of students memorize passages from a test-preparation book for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). One group memorized these passages by reading them repeatedly, while another group read the passages several times and then completed three tests. The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied. The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. Its value remains undoubted, but scientists are still debating why it has such a powerful effect on memory. The simplest explanation is that testing exposes our weaknesses. When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元的) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. This allows your brain to consolidate the information and create stronger memories. In conclusion, testing is not just a tool for assessing your knowledge but also a powerful learning tool. By embracing errors and actively testing yourself, you can improve your learning and memory. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, embrace them as opportunities for growth and mastery. 32．What do we know about Henry and Jeff’s study? A．Self-testing works only in tasks of memorizing things. B．Those who repeatedly studied performed better later. C．Rote memorization doesn’t work well in the long run. D．The study focused mainly on how to prepare for TOFEL. 33．What happens to the brain when people test their memories? A．Additional neuronal connections in the brain are created. B．The brain processes new information at a higher speed. C．The weak connections between neurons are removed. D．Weak but useful neuronal connections become stronger. 34．What is an effective way to study according to paragraph 4? A．Avoiding making the same mistakes in tests. B．Studying everything intensely on a single night. C．Reviewing in shorter sessions over several days. D．Focusing on what is most likely to be on the test. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Cramming for Exams: A Safer Bet for Success B．The Testing Effect: Why Practice Makes Perfect C．The Power of Testing: An Effective Approach to Learning D．The Secret of Learning: How Brains Process Information 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the primary goals of cognitive behavioral therapy (疗法) is finding effective ways to channel your anxiety into productive action. The best possible one is under the care of an experienced mental health care provider. Still, if you are hoping to stop being paralyzed (麻痹) by anxiety and use this energy to fuel and improve your life, you can. 36 Set a goal. Goal-setting is one way to use your anxiety as fuel. Take notice of your anxious thoughts and worries. What are you most concerned about? 37 Instead of shaking in your boots, get down to developing a plan that allows you to overcome these fears. Challenge yourself regularly to build resilience. Think of your resilience to anxiety as a muscle. 38 Rather than avoiding those situations that cause anxiety, gradually expose yourself to them more often. When you do this, you will find that, over time, they lose their power. For instance, if you hate public speaking, you might benefit from signing up for a local Toastmasters club. Doing so will allow you to practice speaking in front of a group more often, which will reduce your anxiety. 39 Anxiety can feel like a live wire in your body. You can’t sit still or focus. Exercise is a great activity to make use of this spare energy. Exercise offers a host of benefits like fighting off illness and helping you manage weight. One of the benefits most helpful to you, however, is its ability to neutralize anxiety and improve your mood. Perform reality testing. You don’t have to become a slave to your anxious thoughts, giving them permission to get you all worked up. 40 Reality testing involves assessing a situation for errors in thinking. To assess the reality of this situation, you want to ask what evidence is there that says this is true. Did your friends actually call you lame? Are they avoiding you? A．What are your biggest fears? B．Put them to the test instead. C．Burn off nervous energy with physical activity. D．How can you deal with getting fired if it does happen? E．The more you use the muscle, the stronger it becomes. F．Just transform anxiety into action by using positive strategies. G．When you find yourself becoming anxious, check your thought patterns. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 “Can we pick this one, Dad? ” my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks.

I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll 53 on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the 54 of knowledge through life. My mother was visiting us a few months ago.
