B At 90 years old, Barby Keel is proving that compassion (同情心) knows no age limit. Over the past 54 years, she has devoted her life to rescuing animals in need — saving an estimated 10,000 from neglect, abuse, and abandonment through the Barby Keel Animal Shelter in Sussex, England. What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission. The dog never left, and soon Barby was asked to take in a few cats. Decades later, her shelter now spreads 12acres and is home to more than 600 animals. Barby spent the first 20 years running the shelter entirely on her own, and today she is supported by a devoted team of volunteers. Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off. “Some days I am tired out — it’s hard work,” she said. “But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.” Today, the shelter is a nonprofit that relies entirely on public donations. It recently reopened to the public and welcomes visitors every Sunday through October 2025, free of charge. Guests can meet the animals, visit the café and gift shop, and learn more about the lives that have been saved. Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners. “I’m so thankful for my brilliant team of volunteers and all the kind people who support us,” she said. “I know I can’t do everything anymore, but I still get up early to feed the cats and check on them all. It’s a lovely life.” Her secret to staying strong? “Hard work and a breakfast of beans every morning.” 4. What originally made Barby set up the animal shelter? A. Her wish to make friends. B. Her desire to gain reputation. C. Her promise to look after a dog. D. Her intention to raise pet animals. 5. Why does Barby continue her work despite the challenges? A. The shelter needs donations. B. She hopes to treat her disease. C. She wants to earn more money. D. The love for animals inspires her. 6. Which of the following can best describe Barby? A. Selfless and determined. B. Strict and intelligent. C. Generous and knowledgeable. D. Honest and innovative. 7. What does the writer intend to tell us? A. Volunteers are essential for animal shelters. B. Running an animal shelter is extremely difficult. C. Many animals are suffering from bad conditions. D. Age does not limit one’s ability to make a difference. C In an inspiring leap toward sustainable innovation, three high school students — Dhruv Chaudhary, Mithran Ladhania, and Mridul Jain — have invented a revolutionary salt-powered refrigerator called the Thermavault. The device requires no electricity and has the potential to transform life in communities without reliable access to power. Their invention just earned them the authorative 2025 Earth Prize and a $12,500 award, which the group plans to use to build 200 units and distribute them to 120 hospitals for realworld testing. The Thermavault is an innovative cooling device that uses ionocaloric cooling (离子热冷却) — a method that relies on salt dissolving (溶解) in water to absorb heat. The main cooling agent is ammonium chloride, a type of salt that can lower water temperature by 28°C. For even stronger cooling, down to -10°C , the students mixed it with barium hydroxide octahydrate, allowing the device to freeze things when needed. To keep the cold inside, the Thermavault has a metal box wrapped in special wool and rubber, which helps to insulate. Using it is simple: just pour salt into the box, add water, and stir — either by shaking or with a small gyroscope (陀螺仪). The mixture cools evenly, making it perfect for storing food or medicine without needing electricity. The team improved their process through a wide range of testing, working closely with Professor Mobin Shaikh, a material sciences expert at IIT Indore. They experimented with 15 different salts, applying scientific laws and specific heat to perfect the design. Their careful research and testing physical models paid off, impressing expert advisors and members who supported their innovation. Beyond its scientific brilliance, the Thermavault holds promise for off-grid living, disaster relief, and rural healthcare — places where reliable electricity isn’t a given. By offering an environmentally friendly way to preserve essentials, these young inventors are making a real impact. 8. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs? A. The invention has come into wide use. B. The device is unlikely to change people’s life. C. The hospitals used ionocaloric cooling to take in heat. D. The students employed a combined way for stronger cooling. 9. What does the underlined word “insulate” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Mix things. B. Prevent heat. C. Save electricity. D. Increase temperature. 10. What might be the writer’s attitude to the students’ innovation? A. Appreciative. B. Concerned. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on? A. An explanation of the invention. B. The background behind the invention. C. Potential significance of the invention. D. Supporting information for the invention. D In the ever-changing world of health trends, the claim (声称) that green tea is a powerful fat-burner has caught the public’s fancy. Driven by marketers and the spread of information in the media, this idea has become a hot topic. Being the curious cat I am, I reached out to two experts for their thoughts: computer scientist Chris Johnson, who’s really good at seeing through false claims, and physicist Philip Taylor, who bases his ideas on research. Green tea has a long-standing reputation for health benefits, but the recent craze about its fat-burning abilities has taken it to new heights. Health magazines and online articles are full of stories and supposed scientific evidence suggesting that a few cups of green tea a day can speed up metabolism (新陈代谢) and burn fat effortlessly. However, Johnson warns that such claims are often not based on scientific research. “The green-tea-for-fat-loss industry is a classic case of people just following the crowd,” he says. Companies are going along with the trend, making grand promises without scientific backing to support them. This over-promotion of green tea as a fat-burner is risky. Consumers, hoping for a quick and easy way to lose weight, may waste their money on ineffective products. When these products fail to deliver, it can lead to disappointment and a loss of trust in the health and wellness industry. Taylor, though he knows what’s going on, has a more balanced view. From his research, he thinks there might be a little bit of truth to the claim that green tea can aid in fat loss, but only when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. So, does green tea really burn fat? Well, it’s not a simple yes or no. There might be some small effects on your metabolism, but it’s definitely not a magic pill for losing weight. As consumers, we should be careful about these claims and only believe information that’s based on real evidence. In the end, a healthy and lasting way to lose weight involves proper nutrition, regular physical activity, and a realistic understanding of what different foods and drinks can do for our bodies. 12. Why did the author ask two experts for their thoughts? A. To satisfy his curiosity. B. To find new consumers. C. To test a theory. D. To join the crowd. 13. Which may Johnson agree with about the green-tea-for-fat-loss industry? A. It does the trick for people’s health. B. It lacks reliable evidence to support the claims. C. It encourages consumers to buy fitness products. D. It transforms people’s understanding of getting into shape. 14. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Green tea can be made into a magic pill. B. Green tea is the first choice for weight reduction. C. Proper diet and exercise contribute to weight loss. D. It’s easy to tell the weight-loss effect of green tea. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Does Green Tea Really Burn Fat? B. Does Green Tea Remain a Mystery? C. Green Tea: A Magic Weight-Loss Solution D. Green Tea: A New Focus of Scientific Research 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Building self-esteem (自尊) is significant because it directly impacts how you view and care for yourself, influencing your overall well-being.

John had been saving his pocket money for months, planning to buy a new gaming device. John’s parents had always stressed the importance of saving, teaching him that small amounts added up over time, so every month, John would set aside some of his pocket money. Of course, this was not enough and he was also relying on his birthday gift money, which would arrive in three months. “Just a little more, and I’ll have enough!” he thought, excited about owning the gaming device he had longed for soon. One afternoon, while doing his homework at home, John overheard (偶然听到) a conversation between his mother and their neighbor, Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Brown, who lived next door, was struggling to pay for her daughter’s school fees (学费) and asked John’s mother if she could lend her some money. “Can you lend me some money right now? I’ll pay it back in a couple of months. Things are really hard for me now,” she requested. John’s mother responded that she would help as much as she could and would reach out to other relatives to see if more money could be gathered. As John listened, he began to think, “I have some money saved up, but if I give it to Mrs. Brown, what about my gaming device then?” After all, he really wanted the gaming device. But then he remembered how Mrs. Brown often lent a helping hand — whether it was bringing over a hot meal when his parents were busy or looking after their house during vacations. How could he refuse to do something for her in return? That night, John lay in bed and had a heartfelt conversation with himself. Eventually, after much thought, John made up his mind. He decided that the education of Mrs. Brown’s daughter was more important than his own material desires. 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。 The next morning, John went directly to his mother after waking up. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three months passed and finally it was John’s birthday. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025年南通市高一学年度质量监测 英语 注意事项 考生在答题前请认真阅读本注意事项及各题答题要求 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，请用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 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。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Over the past 54 years, she has devoted her life to rescuing animals in need — saving an estimated 10,000 from neglect, abuse, and abandonment through the Barby Keel Animal Shelter in Sussex, England. What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission. The dog never left, and soon Barby was asked to take in a few cats. Decades later, her shelter now spreads 12acres and is home to more than 600 animals. Barby spent the first 20 years running the shelter entirely on her own, and today she is supported by a devoted team of volunteers. Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off. “Some days I am tired out — it’s hard work,” she said. “But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.” Today, the shelter is a nonprofit that relies entirely on public donations. It recently reopened to the public and welcomes visitors every Sunday through October 2025, free of charge. Guests can meet the animals, visit the café and gift shop, and learn more about the lives that have been saved. Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners. “I’m so thankful for my brilliant team of volunteers and all the kind people who support us,” she said. “I know I can’t do everything anymore, but I still get up early to feed the cats and check on them all. It’s a lovely life.” Her secret to staying strong? “Hard work and a breakfast of beans every morning.” 4. What originally made Barby set up the animal shelter? A. Her wish to make friends. B. Her desire to gain reputation. C. Her promise to look after a dog. D. Her intention to raise pet animals. 5. Why does Barby continue her work despite the challenges? A. The shelter needs donations. B. She hopes to treat her disease. C. She wants to earn more money. D. The love for animals inspires her. 6. Which of the following can best describe Barby? A. Selfless and determined. B. Strict and intelligent. C. Generous and knowledgeable. D. Honest and innovative. 7. What does the writer intend to tell us? A. Volunteers are essential for animal shelters. B. Running an animal shelter is extremely difficult. C. Many animals are suffering from bad conditions. D. Age does not limit one’s ability to make a difference. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了90岁的Barby Keel过去54年致力于拯救需要帮助的动物，她的动物收容所救助了约10000只动物，尽管面临挑战，她仍因对动物的爱坚持工作。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission.(上世纪70年代，一个简单的帮忙——在一名士兵驻扎北爱尔兰期间照顾他的狗——变成了一项终身使命)”可知，Barby最初是因为答应照顾一只狗，后来才逐渐发展建立了动物收容所。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中Barby的话“But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.(但当我感受到它们用鼻子蹭我或者抬头看着我时，我就想起我为什么要做这件事。我的动物永远是第一位的)”可知，Barby对动物的爱激励着她尽管面临挑战仍继续工作。故选D项。 6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners.(Barby还用自己的养老金购买大量宠物食品，然后以低价转售给经济困难的宠物主人)”可知，她无私地帮助他人，体现了她的无私。再根据第三段中“Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off.(尽管三次患癌，她仍然每天早上7点起床照顾她心爱的动物，并且说她“从不”休假)”可知，她不顾自身困难坚持照顾动物，体现了她的坚定。所以Barby是无私且坚定的。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。文章开篇点明“At 90 years old, Barby Keel is proving that compassion (同情心) knows no age limit.(90岁的Barby Keel证明了同情心没有年龄限制)”，奠定了全文的主旨基调。接着详细叙述了Barby从上世纪70年代一个简单的照顾狗的举动开始，逐步将其发展成终身使命，建立起动物收容所，救助了约10000只动物。她独自经营收容所20年，即便三次患癌，依然每天早起照顾动物。她还拿出自己的养老金帮助有困难的宠物主人。这些具体事例都充分展示了尽管Barby年事已高，但她在拯救动物、奉献爱心这件事上从未退缩，一直在积极行动并做出巨大贡献。由此可见，作者通过讲述Barby的故事，旨在传达年龄并不能限制一个人发挥自身能力、为社会和他人做出积极贡献的观点。所以“Age does not limit one’s ability to make a difference.(年龄并不能限制一个人做出贡献的能力)”最能概括作者的写作意图。故选D项。 C In an inspiring leap toward sustainable innovation, three high school students — Dhruv Chaudhary, Mithran Ladhania, and Mridul Jain — have invented a revolutionary salt-powered refrigerator called the Thermavault. The device requires no electricity and has the potential to transform life in communities without reliable access to power. Their invention just earned them the authorative 2025 Earth Prize and a $12,500 award, which the group plans to use to build 200 units and distribute them to 120 hospitals for realworld testing. The Thermavault is an innovative cooling device that uses ionocaloric cooling (离子热冷却) — a method that relies on salt dissolving (溶解) in water to absorb heat. The main cooling agent is ammonium chloride a type of salt that can lower water temperature by 28°C. For even stronger cooling, down to -10°C , the students mixed it with barium hydroxide octahydrate, allowing the device to freeze things when needed. To keep the cold inside, the Thermavault has a metal box wrapped in special wool and rubber, which helps to insulate. Using it is simple: just pour salt into the box, add water, and stir — either by shaking or with a small gyroscope (陀螺仪). The mixture cools evenly, making it perfect for storing food or medicine without needing electricity. The team improved their process through a wide range of testing, working closely with Professor Mobin Shaikh, a material sciences expert at IIT Indore. They experimented with 15 different salts, applying scientific laws and specific heat to perfect the design. Their careful research and testing physical models paid off, impressing expert advisors and members who supported their innovation. Beyond its scientific brilliance, the Thermavault holds promise for off-grid living, disaster relief, and rural healthcare — places where reliable electricity isn’t a given. By offering an environmentally friendly way to preserve essentials, these young inventors are making a real impact. 8. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs? A. The invention has come into wide use. B. The device is unlikely to change people’s life. C. The hospitals used ionocaloric cooling to take in heat. D. The students employed a combined way for stronger cooling. 9. What does the underlined word “insulate” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Mix things. B. Prevent heat. C. Save electricity. D. Increase temperature. 10. What might be the writer’s attitude to the students’ innovation? A. Appreciative. B. Concerned. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on? A. An explanation of the invention. B. The background behind the invention. C. Potential significance of the invention. D. Supporting information for the invention. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了三名高中生发明了一款革命性的盐动力冰箱Thermavault，该设备无需电力，有望改变缺电地区人们的生活，还介绍了其原理、优势等。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The main cooling agent is ammonium chloride, a type of salt that can lower water temperature by 28°C. For even stronger cooling, down to -10°C, the students mixed it with barium hydroxide octahydrate, allowing the device to freeze things when needed.(主要的冷却剂是氯化铵，这是一种能将水温降低28℃的盐。为了实现更强的制冷效果，即低至-10°C，学生们将其与八水合氢氧化钡混合，使该设备在需要时能够冷冻物品)”可知，学生们采用了混合的方式来实现更强的制冷。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“To keep the cold inside, the Thermavault has a metal box wrapped in special wool and rubber, which helps to insulate.(为了保持内部的低温，Thermavault有一个用特殊羊毛和橡胶包裹的金属盒，这有助于……)”可知，用特殊羊毛和橡胶包裹金属盒的目的是为了保持内部的低温，即起到隔热的效果。所以“insulate”的意思是“隔热，阻止热量传递”，与B项“Prevent heat”意思相近。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“In an inspiring leap toward sustainable innovation(在可持续创新方面迈出了鼓舞人心的一步)”和最后一段中“Beyond its scientific brilliance, the Thermavault holds promise for off grid living, disaster relief, and rural healthcare(除了其科学上的卓越之处，Thermavault在离网生活、救灾和农村医疗保健方面也大有可为)”等表述可知，作者对学生们的创新持赞赏的态度。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Beyond its scientific brilliance, the Thermavault holds promise for off grid living, disaster relief, and rural healthcare — places where reliable electricity isn’t a given. By offering an environmentally friendly way to preserve essentials, these young inventors are making a real impact.(除了其科学上的卓越之处，Thermavault在离网生活、救灾和农村医疗保健方面也大有可为，这些地方往往没有可靠的电力供应。通过提供一种环保的方式来保存必需品，这些年轻的发明家正在产生真正的影响)”可知，本段主要强调了Thermavault在不同场景下的应用潜力和对社会的积极影响，也就是该发明的潜在意义。故选C项。 D In the ever-changing world of health trends, the claim (声称) that green tea is a powerful fat-burner has caught the public’s fancy. Driven by marketers and the spread of information in the media, this idea has become a hot topic. Being the curious cat I am, I reached out to two experts for their thoughts: computer scientist Chris Johnson, who’s really good at seeing through false claims, and physicist Philip Taylor, who bases his ideas on research. Green tea has a long-standing reputation for health benefits, but the recent craze about its fat-burning abilities has taken it to new heights. Health magazines and online articles are full of stories and supposed scientific evidence suggesting that a few cups of green tea a day can speed up metabolism (新陈代谢) and burn fat effortlessly. However, Johnson warns that such claims are often not based on scientific research. “The green-tea-for-fat-loss industry is a classic case of people just following the crowd,” he says. Companies are going along with the trend, making grand promises without scientific backing to support them. This over-promotion of green tea as a fat-burner is risky. Consumers, hoping for a quick and easy way to lose weight, may waste their money on ineffective products. When these products fail to deliver, it can lead to disappointment and a loss of trust in the health and wellness industry. Taylor, though he knows what’s going on, has a more balanced view. From his research, he thinks there might be a little bit of truth to the claim that green tea can aid in fat loss, but only when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. So, does green tea really burn fat? Well, it’s not a simple yes or no. There might be some small effects on your metabolism, but it’s definitely not a magic pill for losing weight. As consumers, we should be careful about these claims and only believe information that’s based on real evidence. In the end, a healthy and lasting way to lose weight involves proper nutrition, regular physical activity, and a realistic understanding of what different foods and drinks can do for our bodies. 12. Why did the author ask two experts for their thoughts? A. To satisfy his curiosity. B. To find new consumers. C. To test a theory. D. To join the crowd. 13. Which may Johnson agree with about the green-tea-for-fat-loss industry? A. It does the trick for people’s health. B. It lacks reliable evidence to support the claims. C. It encourages consumers to buy fitness products. D. It transforms people’s understanding of getting into shape. 14. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Green tea can be made into a magic pill. B. Green tea is the first choice for weight reduction. C. Proper diet and exercise contribute to weight loss. D. It’s easy to tell the weight-loss effect of green tea. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Does Green Tea Really Burn Fat? B. Does Green Tea Remain a Mystery? C. Green Tea: A Magic Weight-Loss Solution D Green Tea: A New Focus of Scientific Research 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】deserving 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：由何占豪和陈钢作曲的《梁祝》真的是一部值得一听的杰作。“(deserve) to be heard”在句中作后置定语，deserve(值得)用非谓语形式，与其逻辑主语“masterpiece”之间是主动关系，用现在分词表主动。故填deserving。 38. The Internet has made our lives ______ (unbelievable) convenient, providing all sorts of goods and services. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】unbelievably 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：互联网让我们的生活变得令人难以置信地便利，它提供了各种各样的商品和服务。提示词修饰形容词convenient，用副词unbelievably作状语，意为“难以置信地”。故填unbelievably。 39. Most of the songs are about hardship and heartbreak, but also about hope — as plenty of humour ______ (throw) in for good measure. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】is thrown 【解析】 【详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：大多数歌曲都围绕着艰难困苦和心碎，但也关乎希望——因为加入了大量幽默元素。throw in (添加，投入)是状语从句中谓语动词，与主语之间humour之间是被动关系，句中描述的是客观情况，要用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是不可数名词，谓语用单数形式。故填is thrown。 40. What amazed the child was not a new world, __________ the unnoticed music of the old. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】but 【解析】 【详解】考查连词。句意：令这孩子惊奇的不是新世界，而是未被注意到的旧世界的音乐。根据句意以及前一句的not可知，此处为not…but…“不是……而是……”，满足句意要求，所以此处为连词but的填入。故填but。 41. I walked down the street, had dinner with friends or lay in bed at night with my eyes ________ (glue) to the little screen. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】glued 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我走在街上，和朋友们一起吃晚餐，或者晚上躺在床上，眼睛紧紧盯着那个小屏幕。be glued to sth.是固定短语，意为“全神贯注于某事”；动词glue作with复合结构中宾语补足语，与其逻辑主语my eyes之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动。故填glued。 42. Over the past 50 years, about 17 per cent of the rainforest __________ (disappear) due to human activities. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】has disappeared 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：在过去的50年里，由于人类活动，大约17%的雨林消失了。根据时间状语Over the past 50 years可知，用现在完成时。rainforest 是不可数名词，谓语动词用单数形式。故填has disappeared。 43. Tu Youyou was awarded for her contribution to the fight against malaria, one of the ______ (deadly) diseases in human history. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】deadliest 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词的最高级。句意：屠呦呦因在对抗疟疾方面的贡献而获奖，疟疾是人类历史上最致命的疾病之一。句中构成“one of+the+形容词最高级+名词复数”的结构，意为“最……之一”。deadly的最高级为deadliest。故填deadliest。 44. However, enough qinghao extract was hard ______ (produce) due to limited research resources. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】to produce 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，由于研究资源有限，很难生产出足够的青蒿提取物。“主语+ be + adj. + to do…”为固定句型，该句型中形容词表明主语的特征或性质，句中动词不定式与主语之间存在动宾关系；本句中hard表明主语“enough qinghao extract”的特征，produce(生产)与主语有动宾关系，适用该固定句型。故填to produce。 45. Human activities have brought many animals close to ________ (extinct).（所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】extinction 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：人类活动使许多动物濒临灭绝。分析句子可知，设空处接在介词to后作宾语，应用extinct名词形式extinction，不可数名词，故填extinction。 第四部分 写作（共两节；满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你要参加课前一分钟英语演讲，请针对动物保护写一篇演讲稿。内容包括： 1.动物的重要性； 2.保护动物的方法。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Good morning, everyone! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for your attention. 【答案】Good morning, everyone!

John had been saving his pocket money for months, planning to buy a new gaming device. John’s parents had always stressed the importance of saving, teaching him that small amounts added up over time, so every month, John would set aside some of his pocket money. Of course, this was not enough and he was also relying on his birthday gift money, which would arrive in three months. “Just a little more, and I’ll have enough!” he thought, excited about owning the gaming device he had longed for soon. One afternoon, while doing his homework at home, John overheard (偶然听到) a conversation between his mother and their neighbor, Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Brown, who lived next door, was struggling to pay for her daughter’s school fees (学费) and asked John’s mother if she could lend her some money. “Can you lend me some money right now? I’ll pay it back in a couple of months. Things are really hard for me now,” she requested. John’s mother responded that she would help as much as she could and would reach out to other relatives to see if more money could be gathered. As John listened, he began to think, “I have some money saved up, but if I give it to Mrs. Brown, what about my gaming device then?” After all, he really wanted the gaming device. But then he remembered how Mrs. Brown often lent a helping hand — whether it was bringing over a hot meal when his parents were busy or looking after their house during vacations. How could he refuse to do something for her in return? That night, John lay in bed and had a heartfelt conversation with himself. Eventually, after much thought, John made up his mind. He decided that the education of Mrs. Brown’s daughter was more important than his own material desires. 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。 The next morning, John went directly to his mother after waking up. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three months passed and finally it was John’s birthday. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next morning, John went directly to his mother after waking up. He said, “Mom, I heard about Mrs. Brown’s difficulty. I want to lend her the money I’ve saved for the gaming device. Her daughter’s education is more important.” His mother was touched by his generosity and praised him for his selflessness. Later, John explained his decision to Mrs. Brown. With the help of John and his family, Mrs. Brown managed to gather enough funds for her daughter’s school fees. The neighbors’ gratitude and smiles made John realize that helping others brings more joy than any material possession could. Three months passed and finally it was John’s birthday. To his surprise, his parents and Mrs. Brown gathered to celebrate. Mrs. Brown presented John with a brand-new gaming device as a thank-you gift, saying, “Your kindness deserves a reward.” John was overjoyed, not just because he received the device, but because he understood the true meaning of giving. From then on, he continued to save, but this time, he also helped others whenever he could, knowing that small acts of kindness could make a big difference. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，这篇文章讲述了一个名叫John的11岁男孩，为了买心仪的游戏设备而坚持存钱的故事。在听到邻居Mrs. Brown因支付女儿学费困难而求助后，John经过内心挣扎，决定将存钱箱里的钱借给Mrs. Brown。John的母亲对他的决定表示赞赏，并与家人一起帮助Mrs. Brown筹集了学费。三个月后，John生日时，Mrs. Brown为感谢他的善举，送给了他一个新的游戏设备。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“第二天早上，John起床后径直走到母亲身边。”可知，第一段应描写John主动提出捐钱帮助邻居，体现其善良和决心。 ② 由第二段首句内容“三个月过去了，John的生日终于到了。”可知，第二段应描写生日时Mrs. Brown的回报，以及John对善良行为的感悟。 2. 续写线索： 主动捐钱——家人支持——帮助邻居——生日惊喜——礼物回馈——深刻感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 想要做某事：want to do sth/would like to do sth ② 解释：explain/account for ③ 成功做某事：manage to do sth/be succeeded in doing sth 情绪类 ① 令某人惊讶的是：to one’s surprise/to one’s amazement ② 欣喜若狂：be overjoyed/be wild with joy 【点睛】【高分句型1】He said, “Mom, I heard about Mrs. Brown’s difficulty, so I want to lend her the money I’ve saved.”（由so连接因果关系的并列句以及省略that引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】John was overjoyed, not just because he received the device, but because he understood the true meaning of giving.（由not just...but also...连接的并列句，because引导原因状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
