B As I signed the pre-medical application form, my fingers shook uncontrollably. The watercolor brushes on my desk seemed to gaze back at me, like old friends who had been left behind. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted (萦绕) me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads (便笺本). Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 4. What did Lora’s mother believe about art from paragraph 1？ A. Art is a good way to express feelings. B. Art is not practical for making a living. C. Art can help with medical studies. D. Art is more important than science. 5. Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skill” as ________. A. a plus B. a recreation C. a distraction D. a burden 6. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It directed her toward doctor training. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 7. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. C You might have heard someone say that a song changed their life. And maybe you used to hate tomatoes, but now you like it. No one doubts that we change as we grow older. But do we change in major ways? Can we really change who we are? People used to believe we stay pretty much the same throughout our lives, but researchers are increasingly finding that we can and do change in big ways. Psychologists have identified five dimensions that help us understand someone’s personality, which are called the “Big Five.” They are: 1. Openness: How open are you to trying new things? 2. Conscientiousness (尽责性): How responsible are you? 3. Extroversion (外向):How friendly, outgoing, and enthusiastic are you? 4. Agreeableness: How caring, trusting, and generous are you? 5. Emotional stability: How calm are you, especially when problems arise? Everyone has different levels of the big five dimensions. For example, Harry Potter has high levels of openness to experience, while Hermione Granger would score high in conscientiousness. Scientists used to think that each person’s “Big Five” stayed the same their whole life, but newer research suggests that the dimensions do change. People who took a personality test as teen-agers scored very differently when they took the same test 50 years later. Three dimensions usually changed more than the others, which are emotional stability, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. In fact, most adults were more emotionally stable, more conscientious, and more agreeable than when they were younger. Researchers considered this a sign that we mature over time, perhaps learning to get along better with others. Even though people change over time, the relationship between dimensions often remains similar. For example, someone who was very open to new experiences but who was not agreeable as a teenager was likely still more open to new things than agreeable as an adult. Scores changed, and sometimes changed a lot, but they didn’t change randomly. 8. Why does the author mention Harry Potter and Hermione Granger in Paragraph 2? A. To identify the impact of the big five dimensions. B. To stress the value of openness and responsibility. C. To analyze some main characters in popular fiction. D. To illustrate various degrees of personality dimensions. 9. Which of the following is the most likely result of people’s aging? A. Becoming more hot-tempered. B. Becoming more considerate. C. Becoming less responsible. D. Becoming less generous. 10. What does the last paragraph suggest about one’s personality dimensions? A. Personality dimensions change accidentally. B. One is likely to be more open than agreeable. C. Relationship between dimensions stays unchanged. D. Changes in personality dimensions follow some pattern. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. The Effects of Changing. B. What Are the “Big Five”? C. Do People Really Change? D. Personality Dimensions Matter. D Some penguins(企鹅)adapt their calls to become more similar to their partners over time，an ability that was previously known in only a few species, including humans. Luigi Baciadonna at the University of Turin, Italy, and his coworkers recorded African penguins from three different colonies(群体)over three years, and also observed the behavioral patterns of one of the colonies to see which penguins were partners or friendly. They then analyzed specific vocal(嗓音的)calls, which the penguins made when they were alone or trying to keep track of their friends.They compared four distinct vocal signatures such as the frequency of the calls. The signatures became more similar over time for penguins that were partners or in the same colony, and for penguins that heard more of each other’s calls. This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony. “Imagine that you are in a pub, you are with your friends and your environment is quite noisy,” says Baciadonna. “What you do is try to talk in a certain way so that your communication is more effective.” The ability to adapt calls in response to the environment, known as vocal accommodation, is a key part of vocal learning, a more complex set of skills such as producing new sounds through learning. Identifying which species display vocal accommodation could provide clues to how vocal learning developed. Baciadonna and his team also propose that this accommodation could help with group harmony and social bonds between individual penguins. The distance of penguins from humans on the evolutionary tree suggests that vocal accommodation could be common to many species, but a lot more data needs gathering first. “There could be a huge variety of different species that are able to adapt their calls slightly, but we don’t know that yet,” says Sara Torres Ortiz at the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology. 12. What does the underlined word “signatures” mean in paragraph 3? A. Effects. B. Characteristics. C. Sources. D. Adjustments. 13. What is the intention of the quotes from Baciadonna in paragraph 4? A. To explain the reason why penguins adapt their calls. B. To highlight the role communication plays in social life. C. To prove humans’ ability to recognize each other's voices. D. To stress the difference between human and animal sounds. 14. What remains to be explored according to Sara Torres Ortiz? A. Whether penguins can promote group harmony. B. Whether all species can adapt to the environment. C. Whether more species display vocal accommodation. D. Whether penguins and humans are similar in vocal learning. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. Vocal learning involves a complex set of skills. B. Vocal accommodation helps build up social bonds. C. Penguins produce similar sounds even in different colonies. D. Penguins adapt their accents to sound more like their partners. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When I was a kid, I took traveling with my parents for granted. Sure, they paid for everything. But they were basically no different from teachers taking us to a field trip. ____16____. For example, they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World. And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools. And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog (目录). Of course, some 20 years later, I consider traveling with my parents, now both in their 60s, to be the utmost privilege. ____17____. Neither am I, and every day that passes brings us closer to our last. Fortunately, since graduating college, I’ve been able to cover some serious ground with each of them. Together my dad and I have looked for the Loch Ness monster in Scotland photographed wildlife in Grand Teton National Park, and most recently, survived the famously dangerous Drake Passage. Meanwhile, my mom and I have stayed at a $9/night treehouse hostel in Mexico, eaten at a Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant in Vienna, and most recently, road-tripped through three states. ____18____. After all, even if you’re the apple that fell right under the tree, traveling with the people who raised you isn’t always easy. “____19____,” says Alexis Sherry, a New Jersey-based travel agent. Still, Sherry is seeing an increasing number of clients requesting vacations for more than one generation. They can be difficult to plan, but so far she says she’s had no “disasters,” and often, her clients come back closer than ever. “Our parents are our earliest attachment bonds,” says Katie d’ Autremont, a licensed professional adviser based in Bozeman, Montana. “It can be healing and fun to rekindle that bond in our adult years and as our adult selves.” She sees traveling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now, with “now” being the key word. ____20____. A. Those memories are golden B. I know they’re no longer unbeatable C. After all, as humans, we’re always evolving D. That’s not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws E. To my brothers and me, they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun F. Planning a vacation can be considerably tricky when it involves demanding parents G. There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests 第三部分 语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In the now classic scene from the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory a little girl stamps her foot and ___21___, “I want an Oompa Loompa now! ” as her father hurries to get her one.

Other customers shake their heads or ___23___ their eyes as they watch the ___24___ parent grab a candy bar off the shelf and hand it to the child.

Believing the world moves around them leaves others seeing them as self-centered, demanding and ___28___ of others. They are often in ___29___ at work, and their home life creates constant conflicts or leaves everyone walking on ___30___. So, how do we avoid raising a spoiled child? Carrots are always better than sticks. The rule of thumb is to take action and be as non-___31___ as possible when you need to set limits. And when your child doesn’t have a tantrum at the checkout, when she is acting ___32___, it’s time to get out the balloons and confetti (五彩纸屑). The danger with always ___33___ and providing little reward is that the child learns to seek ___34___ attention, which for a child is better than no attention at all. Building in ___35___ quality time half an hour before bedtime or a weekend outing with a teen does the same magic. 21. A. murmurs B. utters C. sighs D. yells 22.

Tom was 11 years old. He was tall, dark and handsome and had a lot of dreams. He had always dreamt of living in a city. He was always his dad’s charm, as he was not quite happy to spend time with his mom. All he could remember about his mom was her scars, red and white scars on her face, neck and hands. He always felt unpleasant to see his mom’s face. But what he did not know was that his mom scratched her beauty to save him from a fire when he was one year old. Not wanting to burden him with it, Tom’s parents kept it a secret. His mom Maria used to drop him to school and pick him up every day. He felt awkward to see his mom with that scarred face standing in front of the school gate. As he was laughing and chatting with his fellow schoolmates, all of them became silent and started staring at the gate. So, Tom turned towards the gate with a lot of curiosity. He froze when seeing his mom, face covered with a piece of cloth. Tom felt ashamed and rushed out of the school with lots of anger. With days passing by, Tom started to dislike his mom more. He did not like to get picked up or dropped by his mom. He felt that she was ugly and so abnormal. As he grew old, he stopped going out with her to the market or anywhere outside. Kamala tried her best to make her son happy, got him everything that he wanted and gave him his space. She understood what her son was going through and felt pity for herself and sad for her son, as she was helpless. When Tom turned 16, he was sent to a city high school 80 kilometers away from his coastal village. The very thought of not being with his ugly mother made him very happy. Three years later, then came Tom’s graduation ceremony. His parents didn’t want to be absent from such an important occasion, so they managed to be there without informing Tom. 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。 Tom was shocked when he saw his parents appear at the ceremony hall. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hesitating for a moment, Tom’s father told him everything that happened many years ago. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024—2025学年度下学期2023级 6月月考英语试卷 第一部分 听力（共两节, 满分 30分） 做题时, 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。 1.

Her words haunted (萦绕) me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads (便笺本). Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 4. What did Lora’s mother believe about art from paragraph 1？ A. Art is a good way to express feelings. B. Art is not practical for making a living. C. Art can help with medical studies. D. Art is more important than science. 5. Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skill” as ________. A. a plus B. a recreation C. a distraction D. a burden 6. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It directed her toward doctor training. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 7. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Lora在艺术和医学学习之间感到纠结，后来在学校职业招聘会、医院志愿者活动等经历的影响下，发现自己的艺术技能在医疗领域有独特的作用，从而将两者结合起来的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。由第一段““Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. (“艺术滋养灵魂，但饿死身体，”妈妈总是说。)”可知，Lora的母亲认为学艺术不能温饱，即艺术不是谋生的实用工具。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed (哈佛大学的Eleanor Whitman博士要求我们列出我们的“隐藏技能”。当我写下“观察细节”时，我的手在颤抖，这是我从画花瓣中学到的。“这是医学研究最需要的技能！”她大声说)” 可知，Dr. Eleanor认为Lora的“隐藏技能（观察细节）”是医学研究最需要的技能，可得出她认为Lora的隐藏技能是加分项（a plus）。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由第三段“Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. (看着手术，我注意到了一些东西——医生们稳定的手让我想起了我的笔触。当一个男孩努力描述他的痛苦时，我在他的石膏上画了一条喷火龙。护士说：“你让医学有了声音”。)”护士的评价和“Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. (慢慢地，我的画板上充满了看起来像彩色玻璃艺术的细胞，X射线排列得像抽象画。)”Lora将医学图像与艺术结合的描述可推知，Lora在医院的经历让她确信艺术在医疗保健中有作用。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段“Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. (如今，我的显微镜和画笔共用一张桌子。曾经在它们之间犹豫不决的手，现在为疫苗教育制作病毒的 3D 模型。有时我教年轻的病人画出他们的感受，而不是描述它们。我的故事不是关于内心和现实相互抵消——它们只是增加了可能性。)”可知，文章主要传达了拥有两种技能（艺术和医学知识）可以照亮人生道路，带来更多可能性的信息，所以文章传达了“双管齐下，照亮道路”。故选D项。 C You might have heard someone say that a song changed their life. And maybe you used to hate tomatoes, but now you like it. No one doubts that we change as we grow older. But do we change in major ways? Can we really change who we are? People used to believe we stay pretty much the same throughout our lives, but researchers are increasingly finding that we can and do change in big ways. Psychologists have identified five dimensions that help us understand someone’s personality, which are called the “Big Five.” They are: 1. Openness: How open are you to trying new things? 2. Conscientiousness (尽责性): How responsible are you? 3. Extroversion (外向):How friendly, outgoing, and enthusiastic are you? 4. Agreeableness: How caring, trusting, and generous are you? 5. Emotional stability: How calm are you, especially when problems arise? Everyone has different levels of the big five dimensions. For example, Harry Potter has high levels of openness to experience, while Hermione Granger would score high in conscientiousness. Scientists used to think that each person’s “Big Five” stayed the same their whole life but newer research suggests that the dimensions do change. People who took a personality test as teen-agers scored very differently when they took the same test 50 years later. Three dimensions usually changed more than the others, which are emotional stability, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. In fact, most adults were more emotionally stable, more conscientious, and more agreeable than when they were younger. Researchers considered this a sign that we mature over time, perhaps learning to get along better with others. Even though people change over time, the relationship between dimensions often remains similar. For example, someone who was very open to new experiences but who was not agreeable as a teenager was likely still more open to new things than agreeable as an adult. Scores changed, and sometimes changed a lot, but they didn’t change randomly. 8. Why does the author mention Harry Potter and Hermione Granger in Paragraph 2? A. To identify the impact of the big five dimensions. B. To stress the value of openness and responsibility. C. To analyze some main characters in popular fiction. D. To illustrate various degrees of personality dimensions. 9. Which of the following is the most likely result of people’s aging? A. Becoming more hot-tempered. B. Becoming more considerate. C. Becoming less responsible. D. Becoming less generous. 10. What does the last paragraph suggest about one’s personality dimensions? A. Personality dimensions change accidentally. B. One is likely to be more open than agreeable. C. Relationship between dimensions stays unchanged. D. Changes in personality dimensions follow some pattern. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. The Effects of Changing. B. What Are the “Big Five”? C. Do People Really Change? D. Personality Dimensions Matter. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是研究发现人可以而且确实可以在很大程度上发生改变，并且分析了发生改变的原因。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Everyone has different levels of the big five dimensions. For example, Harry Potter has high levels of openness to experience, while Hermione Granger would score high in conscientiousness.(每个人对五大维度都有不同层次。例如，哈利波特对经验的开放程度很高，而赫敏格兰杰在责任心方面得分很高。)”可知，作者列举哈利波特说明其开放程度，而列举赫敏格兰杰是为了阐明其责任心较高，由此可知，列举这两人是为了说明人们拥有不同程度的五大维度。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In fact, most adults were more emotionally stable, more conscientious, and more agreeable than when they were younger. Researchers considered this a sign that we mature over time, perhaps learning to get along better with others.(事实上，大多数成年人比年轻时情绪更稳定，更认真，更和蔼可亲。研究人员认为这是一个迹象，表明我们随着时间的推移而成熟，也许学会与他人相处得更好。)”可知，研究发现成年人比年轻时情感上更稳定，更随和，这是一个人成熟的标志，由此可推断，一个人变老的结果可能是变得更体贴周到。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的“Even though people change over time, the relationship between dimensions often remains similar.(尽管人们会随着时间的推移而变化，但维度之间的关系往往保持相似。)”以及尾句“Scores changed, and sometimes changed a lot, but they didn’t change randomly.(分数变化很大，有时变化很大，但它们不是随机变化的。)”可知，人变了，但维度之间的关系相似，得分变了，甚至变化很大，但不是随机变化，也就是说，这些变化是按照一定的模式而变的。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Can we really change who we are? People used to believe we stay pretty much the same throughout our lives, but researchers are increasingly finding that we can and do change in big ways.(我们真的能改变我们是谁吗？人们曾经认为我们一生都保持不变，但研究人员越来越多地发现，我们可以并且确实会做出重大改变。)”可知，作者通过提问“人真的会变吗”引出本文的话题，并引用研究者的发现证实，人可以而且确实可以变化，并从下文开始围绕该主题进一步来分析人变化的原因，所以题目是“人真的会变吗”符合文章主题。故选C项。 D Some penguins(企鹅)adapt their calls to become more similar to their partners over time，an ability that was previously known in only a few species, including humans. Luigi Baciadonna at the University of Turin, Italy, and his coworkers recorded African penguins from three different colonies(群体)over three years, and also observed the behavioral patterns of one of the colonies to see which penguins were partners or friendly. They then analyzed specific vocal(嗓音的)calls, which the penguins made when they were alone or trying to keep track of their friends.They compared four distinct vocal signatures such as the frequency of the calls. The signatures became more similar over time for penguins that were partners or in the same colony, and for penguins that heard more of each other’s calls. This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony. “Imagine that you are in a pub you are with your friends and your environment is quite noisy,” says Baciadonna. “What you do is try to talk in a certain way so that your communication is more effective.” The ability to adapt calls in response to the environment, known as vocal accommodation, is a key part of vocal learning, a more complex set of skills such as producing new sounds through learning. Identifying which species display vocal accommodation could provide clues to how vocal learning developed. Baciadonna and his team also propose that this accommodation could help with group harmony and social bonds between individual penguins. The distance of penguins from humans on the evolutionary tree suggests that vocal accommodation could be common to many species, but a lot more data needs gathering first. “There could be a huge variety of different species that are able to adapt their calls slightly, but we don’t know that yet,” says Sara Torres Ortiz at the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology. 12. What does the underlined word “signatures” mean in paragraph 3? A Effects. B. Characteristics. C. Sources. D. Adjustments. 13. What is the intention of the quotes from Baciadonna in paragraph 4? A. To explain the reason why penguins adapt their calls. B. To highlight the role communication plays in social life. C. To prove humans’ ability to recognize each other's voices. D. To stress the difference between human and animal sounds. 14. What remains to be explored according to Sara Torres Ortiz? A. Whether penguins can promote group harmony. B. Whether all species can adapt to the environment. C. Whether more species display vocal accommodation. D. Whether penguins and humans are similar in vocal learning. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. Vocal learning involves a complex set of skills. B. Vocal accommodation helps build up social bonds. C. Penguins produce similar sounds even in different colonies. D. Penguins adapt their accents to sound more like their partners. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现随着时间的推移，一些企鹅会调整它们的叫声，使之与它们的伴侣更加相似，这种能力有助于建立社会关系。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“They then analyzed specific vocal calls, which the penguins made when they were alone or trying to keep track of their friends.They compared four distinct vocal  signatures such as the frequency of the calls.The signatures became more similar over time for penguins that were partners or in the same colony, and for penguins that heard more of each other’s calls.(然后，他们分析了企鹅在独处或试图追踪朋友时发出的特定叫声。他们比较了四种不同的声音……，比如叫声的频率。随着时间的推移，伴侣企鹅或在同一群体中的企鹅，以及听到更多对方叫声的企鹅，这些……变得更加相似。)”可知，关键词“specific vocal calls”和“frequency of the calls”以及“the frequency of the calls”体现出研究人员要弄清楚企鹅叫声的特征，characteristics与划线词意思最为接近。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony. “Imagine that you are in a pub, you are with your friends and your environment is quite noisy,” says Baciadonna. “What you do is try to talk in a certain way so that your communication is more effective.”(这种调整可以使企鹅更容易在群体中找到伴侣和朋友。Baciadonna说：“想象一下，你在酒吧里，和你的朋友在一起，你的环境相当嘈杂。”。“你所做的就是试着用某种方式说话，这样你的沟通才能更有效。”)”可知，Baciadonna 举例子指出你需要调整说话的方式才能在嘈杂的环境中和人交流，同样地企鹅也需要调整自己的叫声才能更容易地在一个群体中找到它们的伴侣和朋友。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“There could be a huge variety of different species that are able to adapt their calls slightly, but we don’t know that yet.(可能有很多不同的物种能够稍微调整它们的叫声，但我们还不知道。)”可知，是否有更多的物种能够表现出声音调节能力还有待于探索。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文并结合第一段的“Some penguins adapt their calls to become more similar to their partners over time, an ability that was previously known in only a few species, including humans. (一些企鹅随着时间的推移，它们会调整叫声，使其与伴侣更加相似，这一能力以前只在包括人类在内的少数物种中为人所知。)”和第四段的“This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony.(这种调整可以使企鹅更容易在群体中找到伴侣和朋友。)”可知，企鹅调整自己的叫声是为了更容易地在一个群体中找到它们的伴侣和朋友，即通过对企鹅改变声音的研究发现了声音上的调整能够帮助它们建立社会关系。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When I was a kid, I took traveling with my parents for granted. Sure, they paid for everything. But they were basically no different from teachers taking us to a field trip. ____16____. For example, they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World. And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools. And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog (目录). Of course, some 20 years later, I consider traveling with my parents, now both in their 60s, to be the utmost privilege. ____17____. Neither am I, and every day that passes brings us closer to our last. Fortunately, since graduating college, I’ve been able to cover some serious ground with each of them. Together my dad and I have looked for the Loch Ness monster in Scotland, photographed wildlife in Grand Teton National Park, and most recently, survived the famously dangerous Drake Passage. Meanwhile, my mom and I have stayed at a $9/night treehouse hostel in Mexico, eaten at a Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant in Vienna, and most recently, road-tripped through three states. ____18____. After all, even if you’re the apple that fell right under the tree, traveling with the people who raised you isn’t always easy. “____19____,” says Alexis Sherry, a New Jersey-based travel agent. Still, Sherry is seeing an increasing number of clients requesting vacations for more than one generation. They can be difficult to plan, but so far she says she’s had no “disasters,” and often, her clients come back closer than ever. “Our parents are our earliest attachment bonds,” says Katie d’ Autremont, a licensed professional adviser based in Bozeman, Montana. “It can be healing and fun to rekindle that bond in our adult years and as our adult selves.” She sees traveling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now, with “now” being the key word. ____20____. A. Those memories are golden B. I know they’re no longer unbeatable C. After all, as humans, we’re always evolving D. That’s not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws E. To my brothers and me, they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun F. Planning a vacation can be considerably tricky when it involves demanding parents G. There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests 【答案】16. E 17. B 18. D 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文的体裁是记叙文。作者回忆了和父亲一起在苏格兰寻找尼斯湖水怪，拍摄野生动物，还一起渡过了危险的德雷克海峡；他和母亲一起住在墨西哥的树屋旅馆，品尝维也纳的米其林星级素食餐厅，还一起穿越了三个州。作者认为，即使有时候和父母一起旅行并不容易，但这是一种重新建立联系的好机会。 【16题详解】 根据上文“When I was a kid, I took traveling with my parents for granted.（当我还是个孩子的时候，我认为和父母一起旅行是理所当然的。）”以及下文“For example, they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World. And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools. And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog(目录).（例如，他们带我们去德纳利国家公园而不是迪士尼世界。我们有时住在没有游泳池的酒店。他们从不允许我们从《空中商城目录》上买任何东西。）”可知，父母的一些行为在作者小时候看来是限制了自己的乐趣，与 E 项“To my brothers and me, they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun（对我和我的兄弟们来说，他们似乎一心想要限制我们的乐趣）”表达的意思一致，故选E项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Of course, some 20 years later, I consider traveling with my parents, now both in their 60s,to be the utmost privilege.（当然，大约 20 年后，我认为和现在都 60 多岁的父母一起旅行是最大的荣幸。）”以及下文“Neither am I, and every day that passes brings us closer to our last.（我也不是，每过一天，我们就离最后一天更近一步。）”可知，作者意识到父母不再是不可战胜的，与 B 项“I know they’re no longer unbeatable（我知道他们不再是不可战胜的）”表达的意思一致，故选B项。 【18题详解】 根据下文“After all, even if you’re the apple that fell right under the tree, traveling with the people who raised you isn’t always easy.（毕竟，即使你是正好掉在树下的苹果，和养育你的人一起旅行并不总是容易的。）”可知，作者是想说和父母旅行并不都是完美的，与D项“That’s not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws（这并不是说我们所有的旅行都没有缺陷）”表达的意思一致，故选D项。 【19题详解】 根据空前一句提到的“traveling with the people who raised you isn't always easy（和养育你的人一起旅行并不总是容易的）”，以及下文提到的“Her clients come back closer than ever（她的客户回来后比以往任何时候都要亲密）”，可知，旅行中虽然有挑战，但也有可能增进关系，G选项“There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests（我们在应对不同的身体能力和兴趣时总会遇到挑战）”符合语境，既说明了旅行中的挑战，又与后文的积极结果形成对比，故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“She sees traveling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now, with “now” being the key word.（她认为一起旅行是一个完美的机会，让我们了解彼此现在的样子，“现在”是关键词。）”可知，因为现在是关键，所以作为人类，我们总是在不断发展变化的，与C项“After all, as humans, we’re always evolving（毕竟，作为人类，我们总是在不断进化）”表达的意思一致，故选C项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In the now classic scene from the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, a little girl stamps her foot and ___21___, “I want an Oompa Loompa now! ” as her father hurries to get her one.

Tom was 11 years old. He was tall, dark and handsome and had a lot of dreams. He had always dreamt of living in a city. He was always his dad’s charm, as he was not quite happy to spend time with his mom. All he could remember about his mom was her scars, red and white scars on her face, neck and hands. He always felt unpleasant to see his mom’s face. But what he did not know was that his mom scratched her beauty to save him from a fire when he was one year old. Not wanting to burden him with it, Tom’s parents kept it a secret. His mom Maria used to drop him to school and pick him up every day. He felt awkward to see his mom with that scarred face standing in front of the school gate. As he was laughing and chatting with his fellow schoolmates, all of them became silent and started staring at the gate. So, Tom turned towards the gate with a lot of curiosity. He froze when seeing his mom, face covered with a piece of cloth. Tom felt ashamed and rushed out of the school with lots of anger. With days passing by, Tom started to dislike his mom more. He did not like to get picked up or dropped by his mom. He felt that she was ugly and so abnormal. As he grew old, he stopped going out with her to the market or anywhere outside. Kamala tried her best to make her son happy, got him everything that he wanted and gave him his space. She understood what her son was going through and felt pity for herself and sad for her son, as she was helpless. When Tom turned 16, he was sent to a city high school 80 kilometers away from his coastal village. The very thought of not being with his ugly mother made him very happy. Three years later, then came Tom’s graduation ceremony. His parents didn’t want to be absent from such an important occasion, so they managed to be there without informing Tom. 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。 Tom was shocked when he saw his parents appear at the ceremony hall. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hesitating for a moment, Tom’s father told him everything that happened many years ago. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Tom was shocked when he saw his parents appear at the ceremony hall. He stood rooted to the floor for a moment, not knowing what to do. Seconds later, he tried to contain himself and awkwardly walked up to greet his father, ignoring his mother’s existence. But when he heard others whispering about his mum’s ugly face, embarrassment came over him. With anger written all on his face, he pushed his mum hard out of the hall. Seeing Tom’s mum leave with deep sorrow, his father followed her out. Hesitating for a moment, Tom’s father told him everything that happened many years ago. His mum got burnt severely to save him in a terrible fire. Tears streamed down his face when he recollected how much he had hurt her all these years, how he had ignored her and he realized the amount of pain and agony she had gone through. After the ceremony, he found his mum and embraced her, saying “Sorry” again and again. From then on, he thought of his mom’s face even with scars as the most beautiful face in the world and his mom as the most respected woman in the world. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为主要线索展开。Tom十一岁了，他一点都不喜欢和妈妈玩，因为妈妈的脸上，脖子上还有手上全都是红色白色的伤疤。Tom也不喜欢让妈妈送他上学、接他放学，他害怕同学们异样的眼光和窃窃私语。父母为了不让他有负担，没有告诉他，妈妈的美貌是在火中救一岁的 Tom 的时候失去的。后来Tom去市里上高中，他因为不用再和丑陋的妈妈一起生活而感到开心。一转眼Tom要毕业了，父母不想缺席毕业典礼，没有告诉儿子，就来到了他的毕业典礼上。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当Tom看到他的父母到达仪式大厅时，他很震惊。”可知，第一段可描写Tom的反应和做法，他很生气，努力地控制着自己，走向爸爸跟前，但是听到别人议论妈妈的外表，他把妈妈推出了仪式大厅，看到妈妈伤心地离开，爸爸跟了出去。 ②由第二段首句内容“父亲犹豫了一下，把多年前发生的一切都告诉了他。”可知，第二段可描写Tom得知真相后感到后悔，从此以后不再因为妈妈的伤疤而疏远妈妈。 2.续写线索：和父亲打招呼——尴尬——生气地把妈妈推出去——父亲解释——懊悔——道歉——改变 3.词汇积累 行为类 ①一动不动地站着：stand rooted to the floor/stand rooted to the spot/stand still/stand motionless ②压制住自己：contain oneself/keep one’s temper/hold one’s temper ③拥抱：embrace/hug 情绪类 ①尴尬：embarrassment/awkwardness ②生气：angry/fury 【点睛】[高分句型1].Seconds later, he tried to contain himself and awkwardly walked up to greet his father, ignoring his mother’s existence. (运用了现在分词作状语) [高分句型2].Tears streamed down his face when he recollected how much he had hurt her all these years, how he had ignored her and he realized the amount of pain and agony she had gone through.
