The following are four books about them. Who Was Princess Diana? A shy twenty-year-old girl stepped out of a horse-drawn coach and into the world spotlight. Although the storybook marriage didn’t have a happy ending, Diana learned to use her fame as a way to champion charitable causes near to her heart. She became the People’s Princess by showing care and concern for all people, including the homeless, the sick, and others in need. Who Was Charlie Chaplin? Charlie Chaplin sang on a London stage for the first time at the age of five. Performing proved to be his salvation (救星), providing a way out of a life of hardship and poverty. Success came early and made Chaplin one of the best loved people in the United States. This is a moving portrait of a multi-talented man — actor, director, writer, even music composer. Who Was Jules Verne? Born in France in 1828, Jules Verne always dreamed of adventure. He began writing adventure stories as a young man and became a popular writer throughout France. Known for mixing scientific discovery and literature in his books like Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in 80 Days, Verne is often called “The Father of Science Fiction”. Who Is Ralph Lauren? Born in the Bronx, even as a teenager Ralph Lauren was known for his distinctive fashion sense, having a taste for both classic clothes and vintage looks like beat-up leather jackets. He got his start in the fashion business by selling ties that he designed. From ties he went on to create a global fashion empire. 1. Which word can best describe Diana? A. Easy-going. B.

She became the People’s Princess by showing care and concern for all people, including the homeless, the sick, and others in need. (尽管这段童话般的婚姻并未圆满收场，戴安娜却学会将自身声望转化为推动公益事业的力量。她通过关怀无家可归者、病患等弱势群体，展现出对普罗大众的真切关爱，从而赢得了“人民的王妃”这一称号)”可知，戴安娜王妃推动公益事业发展，关心弱势群体，被称为“人民的王妃”，因此用“好心的”描述她最为合适。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Who Is Ralph Lauren?部分的“Born in the Bronx, even as a teenager Ralph Lauren was known for his distinctive fashion sense, having a taste for both classic clothes and vintage looks like beat-up leather jackets. (拉夫·劳伦出生于纽约布朗克斯区，早在少年时期就展现出独特的时尚品味——他既钟情经典服饰，又痴迷复古风格，尤其偏爱做旧皮夹克这类单品)”可知，其成功源于独特的时尚天赋。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据Who Was Jules Verne?部分的“Known for mixing scientific discovery and literature in his books like Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in 80 Days, Verne is often called “The Father of Science Fiction”.

The Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes named Bekele a winner, earning him an award of $10,000 to support his research. Bekele developed a bar of soap that helps treat skin cancer. He started the research process at age 11, inspired by the lack of affordable health care and high levels of sun exposure that happens to workers in Ethiopia in Africa, where he was born and raised. Bekele remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without protecting their skin and he learned about the dangers of cancer from his parents. “When I came to America, I realized how serious the situation is,” Bekele recalls. “Right now there are no affordable and accessible alternatives (替代方案) to the really expensive treatment on the market.” A few years ago, Bekele came across imiquimod, a drug known for treating certain skin cancers. He started thinking about how to make it more accessible for those in the early stages of the disease. He imagined a bar of soap as a simple and affordable way to deliver this important medication, potentially reducing the high costs of skin cancer treatment. However, Bekele still needed to ensure that imiquimod would remain on the skin even after the soap is washed off. He solved this by mixing it with a kind of nanoparticle (纳米颗粒). This isn’t the first time the teen has earned national recognition for his invention. In 2023, he became America’s Top Young Scientist by 3M and Discovery Education. “A lot of people think that everything’s been done, and there’s nothing left for me to do,” Bekele told TIME. “To anybody having that thought, I’d say we’ll never run out of ideas in this world. Just keep inventing. Keep thinking of new ways to improve our world and keep making it a better place.” 4. What made Hem an Bekele start developing the cancer-fighting soap? A. The awards he received. B. The cruel reality he saw. C His interest in making inventions. D. His curiosity about medical science. 5. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Treating skin cancer. B. Washing off the soap. C. Reducing the costs of treating cancer. D. Making imiquimod remain on the skin. 6. What can we learn about Heman Bekele? A. He has won three famous titles. B. His research began in adulthood. C. He has always been living in Africa. D. His parents suffered from skin cancer. 7. What does Bekele try to express in the last paragraph? A. There is no end to learning. B. There is no limit to creativity. C. Hard work pays off in the end. D. Everyone can make a difference. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了15岁的Heman Bekele发明了一种可以治疗皮肤癌的肥皂，并因此获得了多个奖项。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He started the research process at age 11, inspired by the lack of affordable health care and high levels of sun exposure that happens to workers in Ethiopia in Africa, where he was born and raised. Bekele remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without protecting their skin and he learned about the dangers of cancer from his parents.(他在11岁时开始了这项研究，灵感来自于他在非洲埃塞俄比亚出生和长大的地方，那里的工人缺乏负担得起的医疗保健，并且长时间暴露在阳光下。Bekele记得看到那里的人们在阳光下户外工作却没有保护皮肤，他从父母那里了解到癌症的危险。)”可知，Heman Bekele看到埃塞俄比亚的工人在阳光下工作却没有保护皮肤，缺乏负担得起的医疗保健，这让他开始研发抗癌肥皂。故选B。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“However, Bekele still needed to ensure that imiquimod would remain on the skin even after the soap is washed off. He solved this by mixing it with a kind of nanoparticle.(然而，Bekele仍然需要确保咪喹莫特在肥皂被洗掉后仍能留在皮肤上。他通过将其与一种纳米颗粒混合解决了这个问题。)”可知，“this”指的是“确保咪喹莫特在肥皂被洗掉后仍能留在皮肤上”，即“Making imiquimod remain on the skin”。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Heman Bekele, the 15-year-old from Annandale who was named 2024 Kid of the Year by TIME, added another award to his list of achievements.

Keep thinking of new ways to improve our world and keep making it a better place.(Bekele在接受《时代》杂志采访时表示：“很多人认为一切都做完了，我没有什么可做的了。对于有这种想法的人，我想说，在这个世界上，我们永远不会用完想法。继续发明。继续思考改善我们世界的新方法，让它变得更好。”)”可知，Bekele试图表达的是，创造力没有极限，人们应该继续发明和思考新的方法来改善世界。故选B。 C Chinese calligraphy, known as shūfǎ, is the art of writing Chinese characters as a form of aesthetic expression. The birth of Chinese calligraphy began with the formation of Chinese characters thousands of years ago, including the inscriptions (铭文) on animal bones and tortoise shells, and the ones carved on bronze vessels (青铜器皿). An important development of the calligraphic script is the widely known shiguwen, or the inscriptions on stone drums, upon which Qinshihuang unified the writing of characters. Shiguwen led to the invention of dazhuan (the large-seal script), and xiaozhuan (the small-seal script) that was simpler in structure. These were followed by lishu (the clerical script), kaishu (the regular script), xingshu (the running script) and caoshu (the cursive script). Practicing calligraphy becomes a carefree dance of the Chinese brush on paper, which is far beyond communicating the meanings of the characters being written. Calligraphy is not only about writing but emphasizes the beauty of each stroke (笔画), the balance of composition, and the expression of the artist’s inner spirit. Such writing unites Chinese people living in different corners of the country from all walks of life. Whether they are a scholar, a painter, a calligrapher or a common calligraphy lover, they share the pleasure brought by calligraphy. The role calligraphy plays in Chinese cultural tradition is also evident in the close link between it and painting. Normally, they are mentioned in a union as shuhua (calligraphy and painting). A Chinese painting often bears calligraphy, added by its creator or collectors and viewers. In 1926, Liang Qichao, a famous thinker and educator of modern China, gave a speech titled “A Guide to Calligraphy” at Tsinghua campus, during which he said that calligraphy is the most beautiful and convenient tool for entertaining… to calm one’s heart and mind. He went on to note that calligraphy shows the beauty of lines, the reflective glare of ink, and the strength of handwriting. 8. On which did Qinshihuang base the unified writing of characters? A. The inscriptions on shells. B. The inscriptions on bones. C. The inscriptions on stones. D. The inscriptions on vessels. 9. Which of the following appeared first? A. Lishu. B. Caoshu. C. Xingshu. D. Dazhuan. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The history of calligraphy. B. The function of calligraphy. C. The combination of calligraphy and painting. D. The relationship between calligraphy and painting. 11. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To show the attraction of calligraphy. B. To teach people to enjoy calligraphy. C. To prove the importance of calligraphy. D. To encourage people to learn calligraphy. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国书法的发展历程、艺术价值及社会功能，并强调其在传统文化中与绘画的紧密关联及修身养性的独特魅力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“An important development of the calligraphic script is the widely known shiguwen, or the inscriptions on stone drums, upon which Qinshihuang unified the writing of characters. (书法艺术发展历程中的一个重要里程碑是著名的“石鼓文”，秦始皇正是以此刻于石鼓上的文字为基础，完成了中国文字的统一大业)”可知，秦始皇统一文字的基础是刻在石头上的铭文。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Shiguwen led to the invention of dazhuan (the large-seal script), and xiaozhuan (the small-seal script) that was simpler in structure. These were followed by lishu (the clerical script), kaishu (the regular script), xingshu (the running script) and caoshu (the cursive script).(石鼓文催生了大篆的诞生，随后又衍生出结构更为简洁的小篆。此后，汉字书体相继演变为隶书、楷书、行书和草书)”可知，此处按时间顺序列举字体演变，大篆最早出现。故选D项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Practicing calligraphy becomes a carefree dance of the Chinese brush on paper, which is far beyond communicating the meanings of the characters being written. Calligraphy is not only about writing but emphasizes the beauty of each stroke (笔画), the balance of composition, and the expression of the artist’s inner spirit. Such writing unites Chinese people living in different corners of the country from all walks of life. Whether they are a scholar, a painter, a calligrapher or a common calligraphy lover, they share the pleasure brought by calligraphy. (练习书法犹如毛笔在宣纸上自在起舞，其意义远超越文字本身的传达功能。书法不仅是书写艺术，更讲究每一笔的韵味、章法的平衡，以及书写者内心情感的表达。这种艺术形式将中国各地、各阶层的人们紧密联结——无论学者、画家、书法家还是普通书法爱好者，都能共同感受书法带来的审美愉悦)”可知，该段核心讨论书法超越文字本身，传达艺术之美及书写者的精神，联结不同阶层，即其独特的功能。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In 1926, Liang Qichao, a famous thinker and educator of modern China, gave a speech titled “A Guide to Calligraphy” at Tsinghua campus, during which he said that calligraphy is the most beautiful and convenient tool for entertaining… to calm one’s heart and mind. He went on to note that calligraphy shows the beauty of lines, the reflective glare of ink, and the strength of handwriting. (1926年，中国近代著名思想家、教育家梁启超在清华校园发表了题为《书法指导》的演讲。他在演讲中指出，书法是最优美且便利的娱乐工具……能使人宁神静气。他进一步阐释，书法展现了线条之美、墨韵之辉与笔力之劲)”可知，该段引用梁启超观点，表明书法在审美娱乐和修身养性方面具有强大作用。因此，其目的应该是展现书法的魅力。故选A项。 D Chinese startup DeepSeek’s launch of its latest AI models, which it says are better than industry-leading models in the United States at a low cost, is threatening to upset the technology world order.

My father had put it best: “Some kids are good in school, and some aren’t. You’re just one of the kids who isn’t.” But I wasn’t satisfied with that answer. Ever since the first day of school, it had been drilled into my brain that I must work for academic success. Our principal told us many times about striving for greatness. But school wasn’t the worst of my troubles; my time at home had the greatest effect on me. Whether it was the glowing reports on my brothers or even the A’s and B’s on their report cards, I felt I wasn’t as good. That I was inferior. By fourth grade, my self-confidence had dropped considerably and I became depressed. As I only had a couple of friends, and I wasn’t even sure if they liked me, I had no one to talk to. I would lie awake at night and wonder if my life had some meaning. Weren’t my brothers embarrassed by me? Did they see me as the failure of the family? The black sheep? Tears would soak my pillow. In high school without special education, I had to find new ways to help myself do better in school. But the pain from the past six years had caught up with me, and I hated studying. I had had enough failure in my life. Why add more salt to the wound? One night during my sophomore year, I was working with my math teacher. I just wasn’t getting it, and it had been going on like that for a few weeks. My teacher finally had it, and started shouting at me in front of the entire crowd of kids. “How dumb can you be? We’ve been reviewing the same four math steps for three weeks now. If you don’t start shaping up soon, you’ll end up being a failure.” It was the first time that someone had said “You’re a failure” right to my face. 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I stormed out of the room and went back home, throwing myself into my mother’s arms. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My mother’s words cheered me up and I decided to make a new beginning. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I stormed out of the room and went back home, throwing myself into my mother’s arms. Tears streaming down my face, I sobbed out what had happened in the math class and my long-pent-up feelings of being a failure. “Mom, am I really that stupid? Will I always be a failure?” I asked weakly. My mother gently stroked my back and said softly, “My dear, everyone has their own pace and strengths. Just because you find math difficult doesn’t mean you’re a failure. You’re kind-hearted, helpful, and have a lot of other good qualities. Don’t let one teacher’s words define you.” She held me tightly and told me that she believed in me and that I could succeed as long as I didn’t give up. My mother’s words cheered me up and I decided to make a new beginning. I started to face my studies with a positive attitude. For math, which I was weak in, I asked my teacher for extra help after class and spent more time doing exercises. I also found some learning methods that suited me, such as making study plans and summarizing knowledge points. In the process, I encountered many difficulties, but whenever I wanted to give up, I would think of my mother’s words. Slowly, I began to make progress. My grades in other subjects also improved. More importantly, I regained my self-confidence and realized that I was not a failure. I was just on my own path to growth. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物的情感变化为线索展开，讲述了作者在学校学业困难，在家因兄弟成绩优秀而感到自卑，四年级时自信心严重下降甚至抑郁，高中二年级时又被数学老师当众辱骂是失败者的痛苦经历。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我冲出教室回到家，扑进妈妈的怀里。”可知，第一段可描写作者向妈妈哭诉在学校的遭遇和内心的自卑痛苦，以及妈妈对作者的安慰和鼓励。 ②由第二段首句内容 “妈妈的话让我振作起来，我决定重新开始。”可知，第二段可描写作者在妈妈的鼓励下，采取行动努力学习，克服困难，逐渐取得进步并找回自信的过程。 2.续写线索：哭诉遭遇和痛苦——妈妈安慰鼓励——积极面对学习——寻找适合方法——取得进步找回自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①哭诉：sob out/weep out/cry out ②安慰：comfort/ease/console ③努力学习：work hard at studies/devote oneself to studies 情绪类 ①自卑：inferiority complex/sense of inferiority ②自信：self-confidence/self-assurance 【点睛】【高分句型1】Tears streaming down my face, I sobbed out what had happened in the math class and my long-pent-up feelings of being a failure.（独立主格结构作状语，what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】For math, which I was weak in, I asked my teacher for extra help after class and spent more time doing exercises.（由关系代词which引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024—2025学年海南高一年级阶段性教学检测（三） 英语 本试卷满分150分，测试时间120分钟。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

The following are four books about them. Who Was Princess Diana? A shy twenty-year-old girl stepped out of a horse-drawn coach and into the world spotlight.

Who Was Jules Verne? Born in France in 1828, Jules Verne always dreamed of adventure. He began writing adventure stories as a young man and became a popular writer throughout France.

B Heman Bekele the 15-year-old from Annandale who was named 2024 Kid of the Year by TIME, added another award to his list of achievements. The Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes named Bekele a winner, earning him an award of $10,000 to support his research. Bekele developed a bar of soap that helps treat skin cancer. He started the research process at age 11, inspired by the lack of affordable health care and high levels of sun exposure that happens to workers in Ethiopia in Africa, where he was born and raised. Bekele remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without protecting their skin and he learned about the dangers of cancer from his parents. “When I came to America, I realized how serious the situation is,” Bekele recalls. “Right now there are no affordable and accessible alternatives (替代方案) to the really expensive treatment on the market.” A few years ago, Bekele came across imiquimod, a drug known for treating certain skin cancers. He started thinking about how to make it more accessible for those in the early stages of the disease. He imagined a bar of soap as a simple and affordable way to deliver this important medication, potentially reducing the high costs of skin cancer treatment. However, Bekele still needed to ensure that imiquimod would remain on the skin even after the soap is washed off. He solved this by mixing it with a kind of nanoparticle (纳米颗粒). This isn’t the first time the teen has earned national recognition for his invention. In 2023, he became America’s Top Young Scientist by 3M and Discovery Education. “A lot of people think that everything’s been done, and there’s nothing left for me to do,” Bekele told TIME. “To anybody having that thought, I’d say we’ll never run out of ideas in this world. Just keep inventing. Keep thinking of new ways to improve our world and keep making it a better place.” 4. What made Hem an Bekele start developing the cancer-fighting soap? A. The awards he received. B. The cruel reality he saw. C. His interest in making inventions. D. His curiosity about medical science. 5. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Treating skin cancer. B. Washing off the soap. C. Reducing the costs of treating cancer. D. Making imiquimod remain on the skin. 6. What can we learn about Heman Bekele? A. He has won three famous titles. B. His research began in adulthood. C. He has always been living in Africa. D. His parents suffered from skin cancer. 7. What does Bekele try to express in the last paragraph? A. There is no end to learning. B. There is no limit to creativity. C. Hard work pays off in the end. D. Everyone can make a difference. C Chinese calligraphy, known as shūfǎ, is the art of writing Chinese characters as a form of aesthetic expression. The birth of Chinese calligraphy began with the formation of Chinese characters thousands of years ago, including the inscriptions (铭文) on animal bones and tortoise shells, and the ones carved on bronze vessels (青铜器皿). An important development of the calligraphic script is the widely known shiguwen, or the inscriptions on stone drums, upon which Qinshihuang unified the writing of characters. Shiguwen led to the invention of dazhuan (the large-seal script), and xiaozhuan (the small-seal script) that was simpler in structure. These were followed by lishu (the clerical script), kaishu (the regular script), xingshu (the running script) and caoshu (the cursive script). Practicing calligraphy becomes a carefree dance of the Chinese brush on paper which is far beyond communicating the meanings of the characters being written. Calligraphy is not only about writing but emphasizes the beauty of each stroke (笔画), the balance of composition, and the expression of the artist’s inner spirit. Such writing unites Chinese people living in different corners of the country from all walks of life. Whether they are a scholar, a painter, a calligrapher or a common calligraphy lover, they share the pleasure brought by calligraphy. The role calligraphy plays in Chinese cultural tradition is also evident in the close link between it and painting. Normally, they are mentioned in a union as shuhua (calligraphy and painting). A Chinese painting often bears calligraphy, added by its creator or collectors and viewers. In 1926, Liang Qichao, a famous thinker and educator of modern China, gave a speech titled “A Guide to Calligraphy” at Tsinghua campus, during which he said that calligraphy is the most beautiful and convenient tool for entertaining… to calm one’s heart and mind. He went on to note that calligraphy shows the beauty of lines, the reflective glare of ink, and the strength of handwriting. 8. On which did Qinshihuang base the unified writing of characters? A. The inscriptions on shells. B. The inscriptions on bones. C. The inscriptions on stones. D. The inscriptions on vessels. 9. Which of the following appeared first? A. Lishu. B. Caoshu. C. Xingshu. D. Dazhuan. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The history of calligraphy. B. The function of calligraphy. C. The combination of calligraphy and painting. D. The relationship between calligraphy and painting. 11. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To show the attraction of calligraphy. B. To teach people to enjoy calligraphy. C. To prove the importance of calligraphy. D. To encourage people to learn calligraphy. D Chinese startup DeepSeek’s launch of its latest AI models, which it says are better than industry-leading models in the United States at a low cost, is threatening to upset the technology world order.

My father had put it best: “Some kids are good in school, and some aren’t. You’re just one of the kids who isn’t.” But I wasn’t satisfied with that answer. Ever since the first day of school, it had been drilled into my brain that I must work for academic success. Our principal told us many times about striving for greatness. But school wasn’t the worst of my troubles; my time at home had the greatest effect on me. Whether it was the glowing reports on my brothers, or even the A’s and B’s on their report cards, I felt I wasn’t as good. That I was inferior. By fourth grade, my self-confidence had dropped considerably and I became depressed. As I only had a couple of friends, and I wasn’t even sure if they liked me, I had no one to talk to. I would lie awake at night and wonder if my life had some meaning. Weren’t my brothers embarrassed by me? Did they see me as the failure of the family? The black sheep? Tears would soak my pillow. In high school, without special education, I had to find new ways to help myself do better in school. But the pain from the past six years had caught up with me, and I hated studying. I had had enough failure in my life. Why add more salt to the wound? One night during my sophomore year, I was working with my math teacher. I just wasn’t getting it, and it had been going on like that for a few weeks. My teacher finally had it, and started shouting at me in front of the entire crowd of kids. “How dumb can you be? We’ve been reviewing the same four math steps for three weeks now. If you don’t start shaping up soon, you’ll end up being a failure.” It was the first time that someone had said “You’re a failure” right to my face. 注意：1．续写词数应150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I stormed out of the room and went back home, throwing myself into my mother’s arms. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My mother’s words cheered me up and I decided to make a new beginning. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
