B Toulla Hadjigeorgiou dreamed of becoming an artist since childhood, though many dismissed it as “not a proper job.” Her love for painting began early. At five, classmates would ask her to draw during breaks. She still remembers the joy of mixing powdered paint with water and using cheap paper from fish-and-chip shops as her first “canvas.” A turning point came at 12 when her parents gave her an oil painting set — a gift that shaped her artistic path. Remarkably, she still uses the palette knife from that set today. Over the years, Toulla experimented with different materials. She started with oil paints, valuing their flexibility: “Mistakes can be covered easily, letting me add layers of color.” Later, she explored watercolors but broke traditional rules by layering them boldly to create bright, striking effects. Growing up in a family uninterested in art, Toulla found inspiration in classic artists like Canaletto and Vermeer. Studying their techniques taught her precision and storytelling through details. Now living in the countryside, nature fuels her creativity. She paints landscapes, farm animals, and quiet moments of rural life. Travel also inspires her;she seeks peaceful places to observe daily scenes others might overlook. For Toulla, art is about revealing untold stories. “I want viewers to wonder: What are the people in this painting feeling? What happened before this moment?” She avoids following popular styles, focusing instead on capturing the true spirit of her subjects. Through her unique perspective, ordinary moments — a farmer feeding chickens, children playing by a river — become extraordinary windows into human experiences. 4. What marked the beginning of Toulla’s serious art journey? A. The oil painting set from her parents. B. The fish-and-chip shop paper she used. C. Her discovery of watercolor techniques. D. Her primary school classmates’ requests. 5. How does Toulla use watercolors differently from traditional methods? A. She avoids layering colors. B. She mixes them with oil paints. C. She focuses on correcting mistakes. D. She applies multiple layers for vivid effects. 6. What inspires Toulla’s current artworks? A. Her family’s advice on painting styles. B. Quiet rural scenes and travel experiences. C. Some famous global modern art exhibitions. D. Her busy city life and modal fashion trends. 7. What is the main purpose of Toulla’s artworks? A. To promote traditional art forms. B. To showcase her family’s influence. C. To arouse reflection on human stories. D. To teach painting techniques to students. C Global sea levels experienced an unexpected acceleration in 2024, primarily driven by thermal (热的) expansion — the phenomenon of seawater expanding as it absorbs heat. NASA data revealed an annual rise of 0.23 inches, surpassing the predicted 0.17 inches. “While natural fluctuations exist, the long-term trend is clear: rising speeds are increasing,” stated NASA researcher Josh Willis. Historically, melting ice sheets contributed two-thirds of sea level rise, with thermal expansion accounting for the remaining third. However, 2024 saw a role reversal (逆转): thermal expansion became responsible for two-thirds of the increase. Scientists attribute this shift to record-breaking global temperatures, which pushed ocean heat content and sea surface heights to 30-year highs. Satellite observations since 1993 show the annual rise rate has more than doubled, resulting in a 4-inch global increase over three decades. Continuous satellite monitoring, from the TOPEX/Poseidon mission (1992) to the recently launched Sentinel-6 (2020), ensures data accuracy. The upcoming Sentinel-6B satellite will extend this critical record into the 2030s. Thermal expansion occurs as absorbed heat enters ocean layers. Typically, seawater forms stable layer based on temperature and density. While surface heat transfers slowly to deeper waters, vertical mixing in high-wind zones like the Southern Ocean disrupts (破坏) this pattern. Climate phenomena such as El Nino — characterized by eastward shifts of warm Pacific waters — can also force heat downward, accelerating thermal expansion. 8. What was the main contributor to sea level rise in 2024? A. Accelerated ice sheet melting. B. Increasing rainfall over oceans. C. Changes in ocean current directions. D. Heat-induced expansion of seawater. 9. What do the satellite records indicate about sea level changes? A. Recent slowing of annual rise. B. Over 30 years of observations. C. Data collection began in 2020. D. Complete reliance on European satellite systems. 10. The term “vertical mixing” in Paragraph 4 refers to ______. A. heat exchange between ocean depths and surface B. the layered temperature distribution in deep oceans C. horizontal (水平) movement of warm surface waters D. rapid melting of polar ice caps due to temperature and density 11. What is the major purpose of the article? A. To warn about terrible climate tipping points. B. To compare satellite measurement technologies. C. To analyze causes and patterns of rising sea levels. D. To promote international cooperation in ocean research. D For over seven decades, fluoride (氟化物) has been added to public water supplies in many countries as a dental health strategy. This practice began in 1945 in the U.S. city of Grand Rapids, where scientists first tested water fluoridation to fight widespread tooth decay (衰变). By the 1950s, it became standard public health policy across America, particularly helping children in low-income families access cavity protection. However, recent scientific findings have reignited debates. A 2024 study published in Environmental Health suggested possible links between high fluoride exposure and subtle changes in children’s cognitive development, though researchers stressed these findings require confirmation through further studies. Fluoride strengthens teeth through two distinct mechanisms. When applied directly — such as through toothpaste — it chemically combines with tooth enamel’s mineral structure, forming a protective barrier against acid attacks from sugary foods. This process, called remineralization, can repair early damage. Systemically, swallowed fluoride enters the bloodstream and gradually releases into saliva, providing continuous enamel reinforcement. Research reveals striking differences between these methods: brushing with fluoride toothpaste delivers 10 times more enamel-protecting fluoride than drinking eight glasses of fluoridated water daily. Natural sources contribute significantly to fluoride intake. A single cup of brewed tea contains fluoride equal to 1 — 2 liters of treated water, while processed foods made with fluoridated water (like canned soups) add more exposure. Modern children’s primary fluoride source has shifted dramatically since the 1950s. A 2022 analysis showed daily toothbrushing exposes children to fluoride matching 2 — 6 cups of fluoridated water, compared to just half a cup from actual water consumption. This shift explains why some scientists now question the necessity of water fluoridation in areas with good dental care access. The debate centers on health equity. While fluoride-free alternatives exist, 40% of American children under 12 still develop cavities (龋齿), with rates three times higher in low-income communities. Dental associations argue fluoridated water remains a crucial safety net, especially for families who might forget to brush or lack dental insurance. Current U.S. regulations maintain fluoride levels at 0.7 milligrams per liter — a balance between dental benefits and potential risks. Health authorities recommend continued monitoring, advising parents to oversee young children’s toothpaste use to prevent accidental over consumption. As global health organizations review new evidence, this decades-old public health practice faces its most serious challenge. The core question remains: How can societies protect vulnerable populations while respecting evolving scientific understanding? 12. What historical fact is mentioned about fluoride use? A. It was first tested in canned foods. B. It became U.S. policy in the 1920s. C. Tea companies promoted its benefits. D. Grand Rapids conducted early experiments. 13. How does fluoride repair early-stage tooth decay? A. Through blood circulation. B. By forming a mineral barrier. C. By killing all mouth bacteria. D. Through saliva mineral release. 14 Why do some scientists question water fluoridation today? A. It causes immediate health risks. B. Modern children consume more tea. C. Canned soups contain excess fluoride. D. Toothpaste provides sufficient fluoride. 15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. Fluoride Sources Comparison: Toothpaste vs Drinking Water. B. The Historical Success of Water Fluoridation Programs Since 1945. C. Public Health Dilemma: Reassessing Present Fluoridation Policies. D. How Fluoride Prevents Childhood Cavities: Mechanisms Explained. 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。 How to build patience abilities What’s the purpose of building patience abilities? In a word, happiness. Better relationships, more success. ____16____ Effective ways are recommended to train ourselves to work with little pain and annoyance. Thus, when the big ones come, we will have developed the patience we need for hard times. Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience. We, human beings, are still constructed with our old reptilian (爬行动物的) brain that protects our physical and emotional survival. The urge to protect ourselves and what we consider valuable is absolutely habit-forming. So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience — anger, impatience, blame and shame. ____17____ Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain. Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions — we try to change the other person, situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort. But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that’s the source of our pain, but how our mind is set. ____18____ Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts. Most of us don’t really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest — but very present — painful feelings. ____19____ But to really care for ourselves, get curious about what’s actually happening in the moment inside you. Focusing on what’s actually happening, you can notice the worry of not wanting what’s happening, the resistance. ____20____ When you find yourself impatient, or angry with yourself, you can remind yourself that you are growing. You can say to yourself, “It’s true. I don’t like this; this is uncomfortable, but I can tolerate it.” A. So the solution to pain is an inside job. B. Patience abilities benefit you in many ways. C. We all have them, and we can grow beyond them. D. Talk to yourself like you’d cheer up your best friend. E. But indeed it takes efforts to build them successfully. F. Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times. G. We ignore the fact that we’re in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分40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。 Many wonderful teachers have helped shape my life.

The accident, which injured three others and resulted in charges against a 19-year-old driver, destroyed the young goalkeeper’s dreams of a professional football career — a path once shining with “extraordinary potential,” as his coach famously remarked. Over four hard months at Aberdeen’s Woodend Hospital, Adam faced unending physical treatment. Each session tested his resolve: learning to balance on prosthetic (假肢) limbs, battling great pain, and mastering movements most take for granted. On his 18th birthday, instead of blowing out candles at a party, he stood trembling in his hospital room, sweat dripping as he took his first independent steps. “My goal was to be home by Christmas — and I did it,” he told the media, his voice trembling with pride. His physiotherapist, Owen Cairns, marveled: “I’ve never seen such perseverance. His spirit doesn’t bend, let alone break.” Adam’s parents, Joanne and Adam Sr., transformed their home to welcome him. They removed doors for wheelchair access, installed ramps (斜坡), and turned the living room into his rehabilitation (康复) space. “They still see me as the same person. I’m just… legless now,” Adam joked during a family dinner, though his red eyes betrayed lasting pain. Nights were toughest. Alone in the dark, questions like “Why me?” echoed in his mind. Yet dawn always brought renewed determination. By 6 a.m., he’d be lifting weights in the garage-turned-gym, muscles training as he rebuilt his athletic frame. As Christmas approached, Adam embraced small victories. He baked gingerbread cookies with his brothers and sisters, laughing as flour dusted his wheelchair. He visited his 91-year-old grandmother, who tearfully hugged him and slid a tin of his favorite apple pie into his lap. But beneath the cheer hid anxiety about the unknowns ahead. On Christmas Eve, surrounded by twinkling lights and his family’s laughter, Adam nervously adjusted his prosthetics. His father handed him a small box tied with a red ribbon. Inside could be ski lesson vouchers (代金券) — a nod to his love of sports — or information about prosthetic athletic leagues. Outside, snowflakes drifted silently, sheltering the scars of the past. For Adam, this moment wasn’t an ending. It was the first step onto a new kind of field — one where courage and struggle would forever dance together, creating a story far bigger than a football experience ever could. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Adam lifted the box lid, holding his breath. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: March sun painted the mountain golden. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023级普通高中学科素养水平监测试卷 英 语 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话 仅读一遍。 1.

Now living in the countryside, nature fuels her creativity. She paints landscapes, farm animals, and quiet moments of rural life. Travel also inspires her;she seeks peaceful places to observe daily scenes others might overlook. For Toulla, art is about revealing untold stories. “I want viewers to wonder: What are the people in this painting feeling? What happened before this moment?” She avoids following popular styles, focusing instead on capturing the true spirit of her subjects. Through her unique perspective, ordinary moments — a farmer feeding chickens, children playing by a river — become extraordinary windows into human experiences. 4. What marked the beginning of Toulla’s serious art journey? A. The oil painting set from her parents. B. The fish-and-chip shop paper she used. C. Her discovery of watercolor techniques. D. Her primary school classmates’ requests. 5. How does Toulla use watercolors differently from traditional methods? A. She avoids layering colors. B. She mixes them with oil paints. C. She focuses on correcting mistakes. D. She applies multiple layers for vivid effects. 6. What inspires Toulla’s current artworks? A. Her family’s advice on painting styles. B. Quiet rural scenes and travel experiences. C. Some famous global modern art exhibitions. D. Her busy city life and modal fashion trends. 7. What is the main purpose of Toulla’s artworks? A. To promote traditional art forms. B. To showcase her family’s influence. C. To arouse reflection on human stories. D. To teach painting techniques to students. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7.

NASA data revealed an annual rise of 0.23 inches, surpassing the predicted 0.17 inches. “While natural fluctuations exist, the long-term trend is clear: rising speeds are increasing,” stated NASA researcher Josh Willis. Historically, melting ice sheets contributed two-thirds of sea level rise, with thermal expansion accounting for the remaining third. However, 2024 saw a role reversal (逆转): thermal expansion became responsible for two-thirds of the increase. Scientists attribute this shift to record-breaking global temperatures, which pushed ocean heat content and sea surface heights to 30-year highs. Satellite observations since 1993 show the annual rise rate has more than doubled, resulting in a 4-inch global increase over three decades. Continuous satellite monitoring, from the TOPEX/Poseidon mission (1992) to the recently launched Sentinel-6 (2020), ensures data accuracy. The upcoming Sentinel-6B satellite will extend this critical record into the 2030s. Thermal expansion occurs as absorbed heat enters ocean layers. Typically, seawater forms stable layer based on temperature and density. While surface heat transfers slowly to deeper waters, vertical mixing in high-wind zones like the Southern Ocean disrupts (破坏) this pattern. Climate phenomena such as El Nino — characterized by eastward shifts of warm Pacific waters — can also force heat downward, accelerating thermal expansion. 8. What was the main contributor to sea level rise in 2024? A. Accelerated ice sheet melting. B. Increasing rainfall over oceans. C. Changes in ocean current directions. D. Heat-induced expansion of seawater. 9. What do the satellite records indicate about sea level changes? A. Recent slowing of annual rise. B. Over 30 years of observations. C. Data collection began in 2020. D. Complete reliance on European satellite systems. 10. The term “vertical mixing” in Paragraph 4 refers to ______. A. heat exchange between ocean depths and surface B. the layered temperature distribution in deep oceans C. horizontal (水平) movement of warm surface waters D. rapid melting of polar ice caps due to temperature and density 11. What is the major purpose of the article? A. To warn about terrible climate tipping points. B. To compare satellite measurement technologies. C. To analyze causes and patterns of rising sea levels. D. To promote international cooperation in ocean research. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章基于NASA数据，揭示了2024年全球海平面加速上升的主因从冰盖融化转为海水热膨胀，并通过30年卫星观测数据验证这一趋势，同时解析海洋热量垂直传递的物理机制。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Global sea levels experienced an unexpected acceleration in 2024, primarily driven by thermal (热的) expansion — the phenomenon of seawater expanding as it absorbs heat. (2024年全球海平面出现意外加速上升，主要原因是海水热膨胀——即海水吸收热量后体积膨胀的现象)”可知，其主因是海水的热膨胀。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Satellite observations since 1993 show the annual rise rate has more than doubled, resulting in a 4-inch global increase over three decades. (自1993年以来的卫星观测数据显示，海平面年均上升速率已增长一倍以上，导致全球海平面在过去三十年间累计上升了约4英寸)”可知，卫星记录显示了30年来海平面观测的变化。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线部分的上文“Thermal expansion occurs as absorbed heat enters ocean layers. Typically, seawater forms stable layer based on temperature and density. While surface heat transfers slowly to deeper waters (当吸收的热量进入海洋各层时，就会发生热膨胀现象。通常情况下，海水会根据温度和密度形成稳定的分层结构。虽然表层热量向深海水域传递的过程较为缓慢)”和下文“disrupts (破坏) this pattern (打破这一模式)”可知，此处详细解释热膨胀发生的机制，能够打破表层热量向深层传递缓慢模式，从而让热量进入各层的应该是“海洋深处和海洋表面之间的热交换”。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章的首段指出海平面上升加速这一现象，第二段分析热膨胀是其主导原因，第三段展示卫星观测趋势，第四段解释热膨胀机制。因此，文章的主要目的是分析海平面上升的原因和模式。故选C项。 D For over seven decades, fluoride (氟化物) has been added to public water supplies in many countries as a dental health strategy. This practice began in 1945 in the U.S. city of Grand Rapids, where scientists first tested water fluoridation to fight widespread tooth decay (衰变). By the 1950s, it became standard public health policy across America, particularly helping children in low-income families access cavity protection. However, recent scientific findings have reignited debates. A 2024 study published in Environmental Health suggested possible links between high fluoride exposure and subtle changes in children’s cognitive development, though researchers stressed these findings require confirmation through further studies. Fluoride strengthens teeth through two distinct mechanisms. When applied directly — such as through toothpaste — it chemically combines with tooth enamel’s mineral structure, forming a protective barrier against acid attacks from sugary foods. This process, called remineralization, can repair early damage. Systemically, swallowed fluoride enters the bloodstream and gradually releases into saliva, providing continuous enamel reinforcement. Research reveals striking differences between these methods: brushing with fluoride toothpaste delivers 10 times more enamel-protecting fluoride than drinking eight glasses of fluoridated water daily. Natural sources contribute significantly to fluoride intake. A single cup of brewed tea contains fluoride equal to 1 — 2 liters of treated water, while processed foods made with fluoridated water (like canned soups) add more exposure. Modern children’s primary fluoride source has shifted dramatically since the 1950s. A 2022 analysis showed daily toothbrushing exposes children to fluoride matching 2 — 6 cups of fluoridated water, compared to just half a cup from actual water consumption. This shift explains why some scientists now question the necessity of water fluoridation in areas with good dental care access. The debate centers on health equity. While fluoride-free alternatives exist, 40% of American children under 12 still develop cavities (龋齿), with rates three times higher in low-income communities. Dental associations argue fluoridated water remains a crucial safety net, especially for families who might forget to brush or lack dental insurance. Current U.S. regulations maintain fluoride levels at 0.7 milligrams per liter — a balance between dental benefits and potential risks. Health authorities recommend continued monitoring, advising parents to oversee young children’s toothpaste use to prevent accidental over consumption. As global health organizations review new evidence, this decades-old public health practice faces its most serious challenge. The core question remains: How can societies protect vulnerable populations while respecting evolving scientific understanding? 12. What historical fact is mentioned about fluoride use? A. It was first tested in canned foods. B. It became U.S. policy in the 1920s. C. Tea companies promoted its benefits. D. Grand Rapids conducted early experiments. 13. How does fluoride repair early-stage tooth decay? A. Through blood circulation. B. By forming a mineral barrier. C. By killing all mouth bacteria. D. Through saliva mineral release. 14. Why do some scientists question water fluoridation today? A. It causes immediate health risks. B. Modern children consume more tea. C. Canned soups contain excess fluoride. D. Toothpaste provides sufficient fluoride. 15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. Fluoride Sources Comparison: Toothpaste vs Drinking Water. B. The Historical Success of Water Fluoridation Programs Since 1945. C Public Health Dilemma: Reassessing Present Fluoridation Policies. D. How Fluoride Prevents Childhood Cavities: Mechanisms Explained. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了探讨了水氟化的历史背景、防蛀机制及现代争议，探讨了如何在保障弱势群体口腔健康的同时，应对新科学发现提出的潜在风险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This practice began in 1945 in the U.S. city of Grand Rapids, where scientists first tested water fluoridation to fight widespread tooth decay (衰变). (这种做法始于1945年的美国大急流城，那里的科学家首次测试了水氟化，以对抗普遍存在的蛀牙)”可知，大急流城进行了氟化物使用的早期实验。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“When applied directly — such as through toothpaste — it chemically combines with tooth enamel’s mineral structure, forming a protective barrier against acid attacks from sugary foods. This process, called remineralization, can repair early damage. (当直接使用时，如通过牙膏，它会与牙釉质的矿物质结构发生化学反应，形成一层保护屏障，抵御含糖食物产生的酸性侵蚀。这一被称为“再矿化”的过程，能够修复早期的牙齿损伤)”可知，氟化物通过形成一种矿物质屏障来修复早期的蛀牙。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“A 2022 analysis showed daily toothbrushing exposes children to fluoride matching 2 — 6 cups of fluoridated water, compared to just half a cup from actual water consumption. This shift explains why some scientists now question the necessity of water fluoridation in areas with good dental care access. (2022年的一项分析表明，每日刷牙使儿童接触的氟化物量相当于2到6杯氟化水，而实际饮水量仅提供约半杯氟化水的氟含量。这一数据变化解释了为何部分科学家开始质疑在口腔保健普及地区继续推行氟化水政策的必要性)”可知，部分科学家质疑水氟化的必要性是因为牙膏能提供足够的氟化物。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段中“The debate centers on health equity. (争论的核心在于健康公平性)”和最后一段“As global health organizations review new evidence, this decades-old public health practice faces its most serious challenge. The core question remains: How can societies protect vulnerable populations while respecting evolving scientific understanding? (随着全球卫生组织重新评估最新证据，这项延续数十年的公共卫生实践正面临前所未有的严峻挑战。核心问题始终在于：社会如何在尊重科学认知发展的同时，切实保障弱势群体的健康权益)”可知，文章围绕水氟化展开，介绍了其历史背景、防蛀机制及现代争议，重点探讨了如何在保障弱势群体口腔健康的同时，应对新科学发现提出的潜在风险。因此，C项“公共卫生困境：重新评估目前的氟化政策”突出了文章的核心内容，适合作为标题。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to build patience abilities What’s the purpose of building patience abilities? In a word, happiness. Better relationships, more success. ____16____ Effective ways are recommended to train ourselves to work with little pain and annoyance. Thus, when the big ones come, we will have developed the patience we need for hard times. Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience. We, human beings, are still constructed with our old reptilian (爬行动物的) brain that protects our physical and emotional survival. The urge to protect ourselves and what we consider valuable is absolutely habit-forming. So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience — anger, impatience, blame and shame. ____17____ Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain. Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions — we try to change the other person, situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort. But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that’s the source of our pain, but how our mind is set. ____18____ Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts. Most of us don’t really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest — but very present — painful feelings. ____19____ But to really care for ourselves, get curious about what’s actually happening in the moment inside you. Focusing on what’s actually happening, you can notice the worry of not wanting what’s happening, the resistance. ____20____ When you find yourself impatient, or angry with yourself, you can remind yourself that you are growing. You can say to yourself, “It’s true. I don’t like this; this is uncomfortable, but I can tolerate it.” A. So the solution to pain is an inside job. B. Patience abilities benefit you in many ways. C. We all have them, and we can grow beyond them. D. Talk to yourself like you’d cheer up your best friend. E. But indeed it takes efforts to build them successfully. F. Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times. G. We ignore the fact that we’re in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem. 【答案】16. E 17. C 18. A 19. G 20.

(运用了动名词短语作宾语) 第二节（满分25分） 47. 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。 In September, 17-year-old Adam Golebiewski’s life went off course when a car crash left him a double amputee (截肢者) below the knees. The accident, which injured three others and resulted in charges against a 19-year-old driver, destroyed the young goalkeeper’s dreams of a professional football career — a path once shining with “extraordinary potential,” as his coach famously remarked. Over four hard months at Aberdeen’s Woodend Hospital, Adam faced unending physical treatment. Each session tested his resolve: learning to balance on prosthetic (假肢) limbs, battling great pain, and mastering movements most take for granted. On his 18th birthday, instead of blowing out candles at a party, he stood trembling in his hospital room, sweat dripping as he took his first independent steps. “My goal was to be home by Christmas — and I did it,” he told the media, his voice trembling with pride. His physiotherapist, Owen Cairns, marveled: “I’ve never seen such perseverance. His spirit doesn’t bend, let alone break.” Adam’s parents, Joanne and Adam Sr., transformed their home to welcome him. They removed doors for wheelchair access, installed ramps (斜坡), and turned the living room into his rehabilitation (康复) space. “They still see me as the same person. I’m just… legless now,” Adam joked during a family dinner, though his red eyes betrayed lasting pain. Nights were toughest. Alone in the dark, questions like “Why me?” echoed in his mind. Yet dawn always brought renewed determination. By 6 a.m., he’d be lifting weights in the garage-turned-gym, muscles training as he rebuilt his athletic frame. As Christmas approached, Adam embraced small victories. He baked gingerbread cookies with his brothers and sisters, laughing as flour dusted his wheelchair. He visited his 91-year-old grandmother, who tearfully hugged him and slid a tin of his favorite apple pie into his lap. But beneath the cheer hid anxiety about the unknowns ahead. On Christmas Eve, surrounded by twinkling lights and his family’s laughter, Adam nervously adjusted his prosthetics. His father handed him a small box tied with a red ribbon. Inside could be ski lesson vouchers (代金券) — a nod to his love of sports — or information about prosthetic athletic leagues. Outside, snowflakes drifted silently, sheltering the scars of the past. For Adam, this moment wasn’t an ending. It was the first step onto a new kind of field — one where courage and struggle would forever dance together, creating a story far bigger than a football experience ever could. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Adam lifted the box lid, holding his breath. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: March sun painted the mountain golden. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: Adam lifted the box lid, holding his breath. What an exciting moment! Inside were black ski gloves with rough palms, just like his old soccer gloves. A bright red note said: “Snow Camp Starts January 5!” Tears filled his eyes as Dad explained, “This is your new game field.” Greatly encouraged by his father’s words, he knew he was on his new way. Outside, dancing snowflakes covered the window, turning the muddy road where he had his accident into a clean white world of hope. Paragraph 2: March sun painted the mountain golden. Adam fastened his new legs into skis, metal parts shining. “Bend low!” Coach shouted, showing the same move from soccer practice. Pushing forward, cold wind rushed past like cheering fans. At the finish line, Mom laughed while melting snow flowed nearby. His brother kicked snow, shouting “GOAL!” in letters that sparkled under sunlight smelling of spring success. “Never never never give up”, the words had been carved into his mind. 【解析】 【导语】本文以Adam车祸后的成长为线索展开，讲述了17岁足球新星Adam因车祸失去双腿，职业梦碎。在痛苦复健中，他硬是在18岁生日当天迈出假肢第一步。圣诞节时，父亲送上滑雪装备，告知这是他的新赛场。次年三月，Adam已驰骋雪山，金属滑雪板代替了足球鞋，家人们为他欢呼，他学会了永不放弃。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Adam打开盒盖，屏住呼吸”和第二段首句中的“山”可知，第一段可描写父亲送给Adam滑雪的装备，鼓励他开始新的运动生涯，Adam非常激动，重新燃起希望。 ②由第二段首句内容“三月的太阳把山染成金色”可知，第二段可描写Adam在山中进行滑雪训练，表现出色，而家人们在一旁为他欢呼，他领悟了永不放弃的精神。 2. 续写线索：Adam打开礼物盒——父亲送滑雪装备，鼓励Adam——Adam重燃希望——三月山中——Adam刻苦训练滑雪——家人们欢呼助威 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/clarify ②把……变成：turn sth. into/change sth. into/transform sth. into ③大喊：shout/yell/cry ④放弃：give up/quit/abandon 情绪类 ①使人兴奋的：exciting/exhilarating/thrilling ②激励：encourage/inspire/motivate 【点睛】[高分句型1] Inside were black ski gloves with rough palms, just like his old soccer gloves.
