If you’re aged between 16 and 25 years old, and are not in employment, education or training, RISE could help you learn new skills and improve your prospects. What you’ll learn St John Ambulance believes that everyone should have access to first aid, and we are devoted to equipping as many people as possible with the skills to be the difference between life and death.

B I drove through our neighborhood with my husband, the place we’d called home for 26 years. The Sierra Nevada foothills, once thick with towering pines, were unrecognizable. The ground was covered with a thick blanket of ash. We’d gotten an early-morning call telling us to move out immediately two weeks earlier. The wildfire tearing through Northern California had spread and was heading our way. We jumped in the car with our dogs and a few belongings. For days, we bounced from hotel to hotel, desperate for news. What finally came wasn’t good. Our house had been right in the fire’s path. Now we’d been given permission to return. My husband and I brought shovels (铁铲), work boots, masks and gloves. We would “rescue” anything we could. We drove slowly through the ruins, where chimneys marked the spots where homes once stood. I wasn’t prepared for what awaited us. Our house was nothing but rubble (碎石). Most of our belongings, including my precious collection of inspirational books, were all gone. I wiped away tears as we dug through the ash. We uncovered a cast-iron umbrella stand that used to stand beside our door, and a decorative dish our son had given me, blackened but whole, which reminded us of bits and pieces of our life. How will we survive this? It felt as if our lives had been wiped out. We stopped digging in late afternoon. My husband loaded what we’d found in the car and said, “Let’s go.” I turned to get in the car. That was when I noticed something stuck to my boot. A piece of paper. I picked it up. Its edges were burnt, but the words were surprisingly clear, “If life seems difficult, I pause and reflect on the blessing sometimes hidden within every circumstance. With renewed faith and courage, I begin again.” The words must have come from one of my books, a passage I couldn’t recall but now said everything I needed to hear. I framed that piece of paper and kept it on the nightstand in every hotel and motel we stayed in over the following months. It now sits in a place of honor in our new home, a reminder that we can begin again. 24. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. The author’s family left home hurriedly. B. The author’s family lost everything in the fire. C. The wildfire first broke out close to the author’s home. D. No warning about the wildfire was given two weeks earlier. 25. How might the author feel when she was digging through the ash? A. Astonished. B. Motivated. C. Desperate. D. Grateful. 26. When was the text written? A. When the wildfire spread. B. When the author stayed in a hotel. C While the author’s house was being rebuilt. D. After the author’s family settled down again. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A narrow escape. B. Rising from the ash. C. An attempt at a rescue. D. A wildfire in North California. C Nestled in the waters off the coast of Tuscany, Italy, an unusual seafloor sculpture park is safeguarding its ocean environment. Fisherman Antonio Verdi has been casting his nets in these waters since his youth along the Maremma coastline. It was in the 1980s that he began to notice the clear signs: the seabed was becoming barren, with exhausted fish stocks. Until recently, Antonio Verdi has found himself not only competing with the decline of ocean resources but also with threatening practices of illegal “bottom trawlers (拖网捕鱼的人)”, who randomly spoil a large quantity of ocean life as they fish, dragging a weighted net along the seafloor behind their boats. Antonio Verdi’s style of artisanal fishing (手工捕鱼), in contrast, is friendly to nature as damaging the ecosystem could reduce fisher-men’s income. He understood that the success of his fishing activity was linked to the good state of the environment. The underwater “House of Fish” sculpture park, which was started in 2015, was encouraged by this fisherman. “One of the most effective solutions is to physically prevent trawling through artificial reefs, so I started working on this project, trying to combine the protection of the seabed with something that could also give an added value to our environment, something as beautiful as a sculpture,” he stated. Sculptures or rocks can break weighted trawler nets. They can also function as artificial reefs, offering habitats for corals and other sea creatures. Due to the presence of the underwater sculptures, some species not seen in a long while such as groupers and lobsters have rejoined the waters. The sculpture park represents both an artistic expression and a defence against destructive seafloor trawling. Presently, 39 massive stone sculptures are scattered across the seabed along an area of Tuscan coastline near the town of Talamone. In the near future, Antonio Verdi hopes to extend his protective efforts in coastal waters. “The sea is still under threat,” he says, “and my mission to protect it continues.” 28. What does the underlined word “barren” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fruitful. B. Delicate. C. Unproductive. D. Fertile. 29. How does Antonio Verdi’s fishing differ from that of the illegal “bottom trawlers”? A. He uses larger nets to catch more fish. B. His method is less damaging to the ecosystem. C. He focuses on catching specific high-value fish. D. His fishes with the help of underwater sculptures. 30. What impact has the sculpture park had on the local ocean life? A. A decline in the variety of fish and other creatures. B. A shift in the types of fish caught by local fishermen. C. The return of species that had previously disappeared from the area. D. The construction of more artificial reefs to conserve are species. 31. What message is conveyed according to the project mentioned in this article? A The ocean is too vast to be affected by human activities. B. Human activities have no significant impact on sea creatures. C. The only way to protect sea creatures is to prohibit human activities. D. Fishing should be in line with efforts to maintain a healthy ocean ecosystem. D If you were to throw, say, a banana peel out of your car while driving along the motorway, that would be a completely harmless action, due to the fact that it’s part of a fruit — right? Actually, no. A banana peel can take up two years to decompose (分解), and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, that’s a whole lot of waste banana peels, or much worse. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解) term to that of a banana, but tin and aluminum cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles and plastic bags. Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will serve to damage the environment, we can’t only measure the severity (严重) of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short biodegrading span, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is thrown in the UK every day. Similarly, our regular littering here and there has caused the UK’s mouse population to increase by 60 million. This suddenly isn’t so mysterious when you consider that since the 1960s our annual littering has increased by an astonishing 500 per cent. It’s not a cheap habit either: UK taxpayers spent£500 million on keeping the streets clean. So, it’s not surprising that if caught fly-tipping, you could face a £20,000 fine. Regardless of how severe the punishment might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were punished out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules. To take back our beautiful cities, we need to do more than simply not leaving rubbish where it ought not to be. We need to care more about the world around us. 32. Which of the following is the easiest to decompose in the passage? A. A glass bottle. B. An orange peel. C. An aluminum can. D. A plastic bag. 33. What can we know from paragraph 2? A. Annual littering has increased a little in the U. K. since the 1960s. B. Shorter-lasting materials will be less harmful to the environment. C. Cigarette-related littering is a severe environmental problem in the UK. D. Regular littering has caused the UK’s mouse population to reach 60 million. 34. Which of the following can best describe the UK’s punishment on littering? A. Every little helps. B. More haste, less speed. C. No pain, no gain. D. A drop in the bucket. 35. How does the author sound when mentioning the current situation of the city? A. Concerned. B. Reserved. C. Dismissive. D. Ashamed. 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。 Being studious (好学的) isn’t just about spending hours with your nose in a book — it’s about developing a mindset that makes learning exciting and rewarding. While studious people do prioritize their studies, they also understand the importance of balance and staying motivated. ___36___ By embracing this approach, you can stay committed to your studies without losing the joy of learning. Make small improvements. To stay motivated during your work to become studious, you shouldn’t think you’ve failed if you didn’t go from having a C-average to an A-average. ___37___ When it comes to being studious and feeling motivated to succeed, it’s better to make gradual progress rather than risk becoming disappointed and losing motivation. ___38___ Get a study buddy or study group. Though working with a partner or a group doesn’t work for everyone, you should consider mixing it up and working to be studious with others, sometimes. You can learn a lot from working with other people, and they can help keep you focused and on-track. ___39___ And, you can gain mastery of a subject after trying to teach it to your friends. Consider this study technique the next time you hit the books. ___40___ Though you may think studious people never have fun, it’s actually very important to remember to relax and take a break every once in a while. If you’re only focused on your studies, then you’ll feel burned out and like you’re under a lot of pressure to keep up. Instead, reward yourself for studying by making time for your friends, your hobbies, or even some mindless activities. Taking breaks for fun will actually lead you to enjoy the learning experience more when you return to it, and will help you become studious. A. Remember to have fun. B. Reward yourself for your hard work. C. Compare your progress to yourself, not others. D. You may also find that you learn more from a close friend than from a teacher. E. If you want to truly be studious, you have to stop comparing yourself to other people. F. Instead, you should be proud of yourself from moving from a C to a B-minus, and so on. G. Achieving this balance involves making steady progress, collaborating with others, and taking time to relax. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I love riding a bike to work regardless of the weather.

Before every swim meet, he would have a bowl, believing it was his lucky charm. At first, it seemed to work. He won race after race, feeling on top of the world. His confidence soared, and he thought the ice cream was the secret to his success. His parents, though concerned about the unhealthy habit, let it slide as long as he was winning. However, as time passed, Mike started to gain weight, and his performance in the pool suffered. He went from first place to last, and his once-unbeatable feeling was gone. He was confused and disappointed, not understanding why his "lucky charm" had failed. His parents decided it was time for a change. They sat him down and explained the importance of a balanced diet and regular exercise. Reluctantly, Mike agreed to give up the ice cream and start training harder. His father offered to run with him, and they began a strict workout routine. At first, it was tough. Mike missed the comfort of his favorite ice cream, and practices were harder without the extra energy boost. But slowly, he started to feel healthier and stronger. His breathing improved, and he could swim faster and longer. The day of the final swim meet of the season arrived. Mike stood at the edge of the pool, feeling nervous but determined. He took a deep breath, remembering all the hard work he and his dad had put in. With a powerful dive, he entered the water and began to swim. Stroke by stroke, he pushed himself, ignoring the burning in his muscles. As he swam, he could hear the cheers of the audience faintly in the background. With every lap, he gained more confidence. When he made the final turn, he saw the finish line ahead. He gathered all his strength for one last burst and touched the wall. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Shortly after coming out of the pool, Mike rushed to his parents excitedly. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2、英语试卷听力部分，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Have a look at this piece of wood i'm working on.

As a participant you’ll learn first aid through our Stick-it...(St John Ambulance相信每个人都应该有机会获得急救，我们致力于为尽可能多的人提供生与死的区别技能。作为参与者，你将通过我们的Stick-it学习急救，……)”可知，RISE 项目提供急救培训。故选B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Choosing the right path for you中“Stick-it: Our one-day introduction to first aid focuses on knife related injuries. You’ll find out how to manage an incident and learn some of the most commonly needed first-aid skills.( Stick-it：我们为期一天的急救介绍重点是与刀有关的伤害。您将了解如何处理事故，并学习一些最常用的急救技能。)”可知，Stick-it 课程聚焦于与刀相关的伤害，严重的手指切割伤属于刀伤相关，所以这个课程会涉及处理这种情况。故选A项。 【23题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“RISE is an exciting project designed and led by young people, for young people. Created by St John Ambulance, the nation’s leading first-aid charity, the project is now available in communities across the country. If you’re aged between 16 and 25 years old, and are not in employment, education or training, RISE could help you learn new skills and improve your prospects.( RISE是一个令人兴奋的项目，由年轻人设计和领导，为年轻人服务。该项目由全国领先的急救慈善机构圣约翰救护中心发起，现已在全国各地的社区开展。如果你的年龄在16到25岁之间，没有工作，没有接受教育或培训，RISE可以帮助你学习新技能，改善你的前景。)”可知，文章主要介绍了 RISE 项目中的一些急救课程，包括课程的内容和针对的人群等，所以文章主要是对一些急救课程的介绍。故选D项。 B I drove through our neighborhood with my husband, the place we’d called home for 26 years. The Sierra Nevada foothills, once thick with towering pines, were unrecognizable. The ground was covered with a thick blanket of ash. We’d gotten an early-morning call telling us to move out immediately two weeks earlier. The wildfire tearing through Northern California had spread and was heading our way. We jumped in the car with our dogs and a few belongings. For days, we bounced from hotel to hotel, desperate for news. What finally came wasn’t good. Our house had been right in the fire’s path. Now we’d been given permission to return. My husband and I brought shovels (铁铲), work boots, masks and gloves. We would “rescue” anything we could. We drove slowly through the ruins, where chimneys marked the spots where homes once stood. I wasn’t prepared for what awaited us. Our house was nothing but rubble (碎石). Most of our belongings, including my precious collection of inspirational books, were all gone. I wiped away tears as we dug through the ash. We uncovered a cast-iron umbrella stand that used to stand beside our door, and a decorative dish our son had given me, blackened but whole, which reminded us of bits and pieces of our life. How will we survive this? It felt as if our lives had been wiped out. We stopped digging in late afternoon. My husband loaded what we’d found in the car and said, “Let’s go.” I turned to get in the car. That was when I noticed something stuck to my boot. A piece of paper. I picked it up. Its edges were burnt, but the words were surprisingly clear, “If life seems difficult, I pause and reflect on the blessing sometimes hidden within every circumstance. With renewed faith and courage, I begin again.” The words must have come from one of my books a passage I couldn’t recall but now said everything I needed to hear. I framed that piece of paper and kept it on the nightstand in every hotel and motel we stayed in over the following months. It now sits in a place of honor in our new home, a reminder that we can begin again. 24. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. The author’s family left home hurriedly. B. The author’s family lost everything in the fire. C. The wildfire first broke out close to the author’s home. D. No warning about the wildfire was given two weeks earlier. 25. How might the author feel when she was digging through the ash? A. Astonished. B. Motivated. C. Desperate. D. Grateful. 26. When was the text written? A. When the wildfire spread. B. When the author stayed in a hotel. C. While the author’s house was being rebuilt. D. After the author’s family settled down again. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A narrow escape. B. Rising from the ash. C. An attempt at a rescue. D. A wildfire in North California. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一家在经历火灾失去家园后，凭借找到一段激励文字重拾希望，重建生活的故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段中“We’d gotten an early-morning call telling us to move out immediately two weeks earlier. The wildfire tearing through Northern California had spread and was heading our way. We jumped in the car with our dogs and a few belongings. For days, we bounced from hotel to hotel, desperate for news. (我们一大早就接到电话，告诉我们两周前立即搬出去。席卷北加州的野火已经蔓延，正朝着我们的方向前进。我们带着我们的狗和一些物品跳上车。几天来，我们从一家酒店跳到另一家酒店，迫切需要消息。)”可知，作者一家匆忙离开了家。故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段“I wiped away tears as we dug through the ash. We uncovered a cast-iron umbrella stand that used to stand beside our door, and a decorative dish our son had given me, blackened but whole, which reminded us of bits and pieces of our life. How will we survive this? It felt as if our lives had been wiped out. (我们在灰烬中挖掘时，我擦去了眼泪。我们发现了一个曾经放在门边的铸铁伞架，还有一个儿子给我的装饰盘，虽然变黑了，但还是完整的，这让我们想起了生活中的点点滴滴。我们将如何度过这一难关？感觉好像我们的生命被抹去了。)”可知，当作者在灰烬中挖掘时，她感到绝望。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“It now sits in a place of honor in our new home, a reminder that we can begin again. (它现在坐落在我们新家的荣誉之地，提醒我们可以重新开始。)”可知，文章是在作者一家安顿下来后写的。故选D。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章倒数第二段中“A piece of paper. I picked it up. Its edges were burnt, but the words were surprisingly clear, “If life seems difficult, I pause and reflect on the blessing sometimes hidden within every circumstance. With renewed faith and courage, I begin again. ” (一张纸。我把它捡起来了。它的边缘被烧毁了，但文字却出奇地清晰：“如果生活看起来很艰难，我会停下来反思有时隐藏在每种情况下的祝福。带着新的信仰和勇气，我重新开始。”)”和最后一段中“It now sits in a place of honor in our new home, a reminder that we can begin again. (它现在坐落在我们新家的荣誉之地，提醒我们可以重新开始。)”可知，文章讲述了作者一家在火灾后失去了一切，但在废墟中发现了一段鼓舞人心的话，让他们重新开始了新的生活。因此，B选项“Rising from the ash (从灰烬中崛起)”最适合作为文章的标题。故选B。 C Nestled in the waters off the coast of Tuscany, Italy, an unusual seafloor sculpture park is safeguarding its ocean environment. Fisherman Antonio Verdi has been casting his nets in these waters since his youth along the Maremma coastline. It was in the 1980s that he began to notice the clear signs: the seabed was becoming barren, with exhausted fish stocks. Until recently, Antonio Verdi has found himself not only competing with the decline of ocean resources but also with threatening practices of illegal “bottom trawlers (拖网捕鱼的人)”, who randomly spoil a large quantity of ocean life as they fish, dragging a weighted net along the seafloor behind their boats. Antonio Verdi’s style of artisanal fishing (手工捕鱼), in contrast, is friendly to nature as damaging the ecosystem could reduce fisher-men’s income. He understood that the success of his fishing activity was linked to the good state of the environment. The underwater “House of Fish” sculpture park, which was started in 2015, was encouraged by this fisherman. “One of the most effective solutions is to physically prevent trawling through artificial reefs, so I started working on this project, trying to combine the protection of the seabed with something that could also give an added value to our environment, something as beautiful as a sculpture,” he stated. Sculptures or rocks can break weighted trawler nets. They can also function as artificial reefs, offering habitats for corals and other sea creatures. Due to the presence of the underwater sculptures, some species not seen in a long while such as groupers and lobsters have rejoined the waters. The sculpture park represents both an artistic expression and a defence against destructive seafloor trawling. Presently, 39 massive stone sculptures are scattered across the seabed along an area of Tuscan coastline near the town of Talamone. In the near future, Antonio Verdi hopes to extend his protective efforts in coastal waters. “The sea is still under threat,” he says, “and my mission to protect it continues.” 28. What does the underlined word “barren” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fruitful. B. Delicate. C. Unproductive. D. Fertile. 29. How does Antonio Verdi’s fishing differ from that of the illegal “bottom trawlers”? A. He uses larger nets to catch more fish. B. His method is less damaging to the ecosystem. C. He focuses on catching specific high-value fish. D. His fishes with the help of underwater sculptures. 30. What impact has the sculpture park had on the local ocean life? A. A decline in the variety of fish and other creatures. B. A shift in the types of fish caught by local fishermen. C. The return of species that had previously disappeared from the area. D. The construction of more artificial reefs to conserve are species. 31. What message is conveyed according to the project mentioned in this article? A. The ocean is too vast to be affected by human activities. B. Human activities have no significant impact on sea creatures. C. The only way to protect sea creatures is to prohibit human activities. D. Fishing should be in line with efforts to maintain a healthy ocean ecosystem. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了意大利渔民Antonio Verdi通过创建海底雕塑公园保护海洋生态，防止拖网捕捞，并促进海洋生物回归的故事。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“It was in the 1980s that he began to notice the clear signs: the seabed was becoming barren, with exhausted fish stocks. (早在20世纪80年代，他就开始注意到明显的迹象：海底正在变得barren，鱼类资源枯竭)”可知，鱼类资源枯竭，说明海底正在变得贫瘠。由此可推测出barren的意思是“不毛的，贫瘠的”，与Unproductive意思相近。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Antonio Verdi’s style of artisanal fishing (手工捕鱼), in contrast, is friendly to nature as damaging the ecosystem could reduce fisher-men’s income. (相比之下，Antonio Verdi的手工捕鱼方式对自然更为友好，因为破坏生态系统会减少渔民的收入)”可知，Antonio Verdi的捕鱼方式对生态系统破坏较小。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Due to the presence of the underwater sculptures, some species not seen in a long while such as groupers and lobsters have rejoined the waters. (由于水下雕塑的存在，一些很久没见过的物种，如石斑鱼和龙虾，又回到了这片水域)”可知，雕塑公园使得一些之前从该地区消失的物种重新出现。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Antonio Verdi’s style of artisanal fishing (手工捕鱼), in contrast, is friendly to nature as damaging the ecosystem could reduce fisher-men’s income. He understood that the success of his fishing activity was linked to the good state of the environment. (相比之下，Antonio Verdi的手工捕鱼方式对自然更为友好，因为破坏生态系统会减少渔民的收入。他明白，他捕鱼活动的成功与环境状况的良好息息相关)”以及最后一段中““The sea is still under threat,” he says, “and my mission to protect it continues.”(“海洋仍然受到威胁，”他说，“我保护海洋的使命仍在继续。”)”可知，文章通过Antonio Verdi的故事传达了渔业应该与维护健康的海洋生态系统相一致的信息。故选D。 D If you were to throw, say, a banana peel out of your car while driving along the motorway, that would be a completely harmless action, due to the fact that it’s part of a fruit — right? Actually, no. A banana peel can take up two years to decompose (分解), and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, that’s a whole lot of waste banana peels, or much worse. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解) term to that of a banana, but tin and aluminum cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles and plastic bags. Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will serve to damage the environment, we can’t only measure the severity (严重) of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short biodegrading span, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is thrown in the UK every day. Similarly, our regular littering here and there has caused the UK’s mouse population to increase by 60 million. This suddenly isn’t so mysterious when you consider that since the 1960s our annual littering has increased by an astonishing 500 per cent. It’s not a cheap habit either: UK taxpayers spent£500 million on keeping the streets clean. So, it’s not surprising that if caught fly-tipping, you could face a £20,000 fine. Regardless of how severe the punishment might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were punished out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules. To take back our beautiful cities, we need to do more than simply not leaving rubbish where it ought not to be. We need to care more about the world around us. 32. Which of the following is the easiest to decompose in the passage? A. A glass bottle. B. An orange peel. C. An aluminum can. D. A plastic bag. 33. What can we know from paragraph 2? A. Annual littering has increased a little in the U. K. since the 1960s. B. Shorter-lasting materials will be less harmful to the environment. C. Cigarette-related littering is a severe environmental problem in the UK. D. Regular littering has caused the UK’s mouse population to reach 60 million. 34. Which of the following can best describe the UK’s punishment on littering? A. Every little helps. B. More haste, less speed. C. No pain, no gain. D. A drop in the bucket. 35.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了垃圾对环境的影响以及英国在处理垃圾问题上的现状。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解) term to that of a banana, but tin and aluminum cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles and plastic bags.(一个橘子皮和一个烟头的生物降解时间与香蕉皮相似，但锡罐和铝罐的降解时间长达 100 年；塑料瓶、玻璃瓶和塑料袋则永远不会降解)” 可知，在选项所给内容中，橘子皮是最容易分解的。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For example, despite having a fairly short biodegrading span, more than 120 tons of cigarette - related litter is thrown in the UK every day.(例如，尽管香烟相关垃圾的生物降解时间相当短，但英国每天仍有超过 120 吨此类垃圾被丢弃)” 可推知，香烟相关的垃圾丢弃在英国是一个严重的环境问题。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Regardless of how severe the punishment might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were punished out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules.(然而，不管处罚看起来多么严厉，在 82.5 万起报告案例中，只有 2000 起被处罚，所以在确保人们遵守规则方面我们还有很长的路要走)” 可推知，英国对乱扔垃圾的处罚力度相对较小，如同沧海一粟。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“To take back our beautiful cities, we need to do more than simply not leaving rubbish where it ought not to be. We need to care more about the world around us.(为了恢复我们美丽的城市，我们需要做的不仅仅是不在不该扔垃圾的地方扔垃圾。我们需要更多地关心我们周围的世界)” 可推知，作者在提到城市现状时，表达了对城市环境的担忧。故选A。 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。 Being studious (好学的) isn’t just about spending hours with your nose in a book — it’s about developing a mindset that makes learning exciting and rewarding.

You can learn a lot from working with other people, and they can help keep you focused and on-track. ___39___ And, you can gain mastery of a subject after trying to teach it to your friends. Consider this study technique the next time you hit the books. ___40___ Though you may think studious people never have fun, it’s actually very important to remember to relax and take a break every once in a while. If you’re only focused on your studies, then you’ll feel burned out and like you’re under a lot of pressure to keep up. Instead, reward yourself for studying by making time for your friends, your hobbies, or even some mindless activities. Taking breaks for fun will actually lead you to enjoy the learning experience more when you return to it, and will help you become studious. A. Remember to have fun. B. Reward yourself for your hard work. C. Compare your progress to yourself, not others. D You may also find that you learn more from a close friend than from a teacher. E.

If you’re only focused on your studies, then you’ll feel burned out and like you’re under a lot of pressure to keep up. Instead, reward yourself for studying by making time for your friends, your hobbies, or even some mindless activities. Taking breaks for fun will actually lead you to enjoy the learning experience more when you return to it, and will help you become studious.(虽然你可能认为好学的人从来没有乐趣，但事实上，记住放松一下，偶尔休息一下是非常重要的。如果你只专注于学习，那么你会感到筋疲力尽，就像你在很大的压力下要跟上一样。相反，你可以花时间和朋友、爱好，甚至是一些不需要动脑的活动来奖励自己的学习。当你重新开始学习的时候，为了娱乐而休息会让你更享受学习的过程，并且会帮助你变得好学)”可知，本段主要强调了学习之余也要玩得开心，给自己放松的时间。故A选项“记得要玩得开心”符合语境，故选A。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I love riding a bike to work regardless of the weather.

Before every swim meet, he would have a bowl, believing it was his lucky charm. At first, it seemed to work. He won race after race, feeling on top of the world. His confidence soared, and he thought the ice cream was the secret to his success. His parents, though concerned about the unhealthy habit, let it slide as long as he was winning. However, as time passed, Mike started to gain weight, and his performance in the pool suffered. He went from first place to last, and his once-unbeatable feeling was gone. He was confused and disappointed, not understanding why his "lucky charm" had failed. His parents decided it was time for a change. They sat him down and explained the importance of a balanced diet and regular exercise. Reluctantly, Mike agreed to give up the ice cream and start training harder. His father offered to run with him, and they began a strict workout routine. At first, it was tough. Mike missed the comfort of his favorite ice cream, and practices were harder without the extra energy boost. But slowly, he started to feel healthier and stronger. His breathing improved, and he could swim faster and longer. The day of the final swim meet of the season arrived. Mike stood at the edge of the pool, feeling nervous but determined. He took a deep breath, remembering all the hard work he and his dad had put in. With a powerful dive, he entered the water and began to swim. Stroke by stroke, he pushed himself, ignoring the burning in his muscles. As he swam, he could hear the cheers of the audience faintly in the background. With every lap, he gained more confidence. When he made the final turn, he saw the finish line ahead. He gathered all his strength for one last burst and touched the wall. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Shortly after coming out of the pool, Mike rushed to his parents excitedly. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version : As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard. His name was at the top, displaying a personal best. Not only had he regained his strength, but he also surpassed his previous records. Pride and relief surged through him as he realized his hard work had paid off. The early morning runs, disciplined diet, and relentless training had brought him back to victory. The crowd’s cheers echoed, but what truly mattered was the quiet satisfaction of overcoming his struggles. This win was different—it was about perseverance and growth, not just luck. Shortly after coming out of the pool, Mike rushed to his parents excitedly. His face was glowing with excitement as he hugged them tightly.They hugged back, their eyes filled with tears of joy. Mike felt grateful for their unwavering support. He understood that the real key to his success was discipline and resilience, not the ice cream he once relied on. This victory wasn’t just about swimming; it was about proving to himself that he could rise up to challenges and achieve his goals through hard work and determination. 【解析】 【导语】文章围绕主人公Mike展开，讲述了他对薄荷巧克力冰淇淋的依赖，以及这种依赖如何影响了他的游泳表现。Mike最初认为冰淇淋是他的幸运符，但随着时间推移，冰淇淋导致他体重增加，游泳成绩下降。最终，在父母的帮助下，Mike意识到健康饮食和锻炼的重要性，并重新开始努力训练。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当他把头伸出水面时，迈克抬头看了看记分牌。”可知，第一段可描写描写Mike看到成绩后的心理活动和情绪变化。 ②由第二段首句内容“从游泳池出来后不久，迈克兴奋地冲向他的父母。”可知，第二段可描写描写Mike与父母的互动，表达他对父母的感激之情，以及父母对他的鼓励和肯定。 2.续写线索：参加比赛——优异成绩——赛后反思——感恩父母——充满喜悦——深刻感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①展示：display/demonstrate/show ②重要：matter/count ③克服：overcome/get over ④意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①快乐：joy/delight ②宽慰：relief/comfort 【点睛】【高分句型1】Not only had he regained his strength, but he also surpassed his previous records.(运用了部分倒装句式)   【高分句型2】The crowd’s cheers echoed, but what truly mattered was the quiet satisfaction of overcoming his struggles.(运用了what引导的主语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
