第一节（共15小题：每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） A 21.A根据第一段第一句可知，Student Support Bursary专门给英国学生提供经济援助， 因此只有英国学生可以申请。International students、Chinese students和Hard-wroking pupils均 不符合申请条件。 22.CB0(Bright Oceans)提供的是课程费用和每年的生活费用补助。OCISUS(OCIS Undergraduate Scholarship)提供的是课程费用（本国费率）和生活费用补助。PBS(Palgrave Brown Scholarship)提供的是每年的生活费用补助。ROS(Reach Oxford Scholarship)提供的是 课程费用、每年的生活费用补助以及每年一次往返的机票费用。因此，ROS与其他奖学金的 不同之处在于它还提供了一年一次的往返机票费用。 23.D根据本文最后一句可知，“Fees,funding and scholarship”这个链接提供了由学院、 部门和系提供的所有奖项的综合列表。因此，如果您想了解关于这些奖学金的完整详情，应 该点击“Fees,funding and scholarship”这个链接。 B 24.B根据第一段中的“The nutritionist and sports coach from Kenya made several applications to study abroad,but it had no fruit.”可知l,这里的“had no fruit'”意昧着Kinuthia的 多次申请都没有成功，即所有的申请都失败了。因此，正确答案是B,其他选项不符合文章 描述。 25.D根据第二段中的“One day,Kinuthia read an advertisement from the National Olympic Committee of Kenya,calling for people interested in pursuing further studies in sports-related subjects.”可知，国家奥委会刊登广告与学习机会有关。 26.C根据倒数第二段中的“the scholarship program has become an important tool of education,strengthening the bonds of friendship between the two nations.”可知，奖学金项目已成 为教育的重要工具，加强了两国之间的友谊纽带。A.它降低个人教育成本。B.它用于促进 肯尼亚的体育发展。虽然Kinuthia学的是体育专业，但Rotich的发言未提到体育，而是强调 “两国友谊”。D.它侧重于提供更多工作机会。 27.A通读全文可知，A项这个标题最能概括文章的核心内容，即Kinuthia从肯尼亚到 中国求学的梦想最终实现。它不仅反映了地理上的跨越，还强调了个人梦想的实现，非常贴 合文章中描述的Kinuthia通过不懈努力和幸运的机会，最终获得了前往中国深造的机会，以 及他对未来充满希望的态度。B、C、D三项过于宽泛。 C 8.B第一段提到买家联系的是来自东京、洛杉矶、檀香山等地的客户，并特别说明 这些地方是“昂贵鱼类被消费的地方”，暗示客户群体的消费水平高，即这些客户属于高端市 高二·英语答案详解第1页（共7页） 场。A.原文未提及客户对“新鲜度”的偏好，只强调鱼类的“昂贵”和“高价值”，因此无法推 断出此选项。C.与原文矛盾。文中明确说客户消费的是“昂贵鱼类”，且拍卖针对富裕群体， 平价海鲜与此无关。D.原文指出买家通过“打电话联系客户”并“通过手势议价”，这说明客 户本人并不在场。通过整合分散的细节（如客户所在地、鱼类的高价值描述、全球财富差距 的对比)，得出客户属于高端市场的结论。 29.D根据第三段中的“The buyers finger these pieces,trying to estimate the quality from the color,clarity,and fat content.”可知，买家通过触摸这些肉样来评估鱼的质量。 30.A第四段开头是一个过渡句，承接上面的段落。A.Public sale(公开销售)，根据第 三段内容可知，auction(拍卖)的核心特征是公开竞价，买家竞争出价，价高者得。原文第三 段描述的交易方式（鱼被卖给报价最高的人）符合拍卖的定义。B.Peak season(旺季)与拍卖无 关，原文未提及季节性。C.inal price(最终价格)虽然拍卖会确定最终价格，但auction本身 不是“价格”，而是销售方式。该选项混淆了过程与结果。D.Press conference(新闻发布会)。 原文提到买家通过手势竞价，说明是公开透明的交易方式。 31.C文章前两段详细描述拍卖场景（如“金枪鱼像汽车轮胎一样宽”），后两段转入全 球渔业数据（如“每年捕捞I7O0亿磅”）和专家研究(Daniel Pauly的调查报告)，符合调查报告 文体特征。 0 32.B根据第一段中的“They developed a DNA test to identify this issue before dogs lose heir sight”可知，研究人员开发了DNA测试是为了在狗失明之前识别出携带PRA基因的问 题。这有助于防止疾病在后代中传播，但并不是为了治疗疾病或研究症状。 33.A根据第三段中的“A dog needs two bad copies of the gene to get PRA.”可知，狗需要 两个坏的基因副本才会发展成PRA。选项B错误，文中指出“If two dogs with one bad copy have puppies,one out of four might get PRA.”即如果两个携带一个坏基因副本的狗繁殖，只有四分 之一的幼犬可能会患上PRA。选项C错误，文中提到“Dog keepers frequently breed(繁殖：饲 )English Shepherds from close families,which makes them more likely to have gene problems." 即由于近亲繁殖，英式牧羊犬更容易有基因问题，因此它们患PRA的情况并不罕见。选项D 错误，文中明确指出“One bad copy means the dog can pass it on.”,即一个坏的基因副本意味 着狗可以将这个基因传给后代，但不会导致自身发展成PRA。 34.D本题考查的是对文章结构的理解。短文首先介绍了PRA在English Shepherd Dogs 中的问题，然后详细介绍了该问题的成因和DNA测试的预防作用，最后提到该研究对人类疾 病的潜在意义。因此，正确答案是D。其他选项虽然描述了文章的部分结构，但不如D选项 全面、准确。 35.C短文主要介绍了科学家发现了一种导致English Shepherd Dogs发生PRA(犬类进 行性视网膜萎缩)的基因问题，并开发了一种DNA测试来识别这一问题，从而帮助防止疾病 在幼犬和年轻犬中传播。虽然选项B(遗传原因导致的老龄犬PRA)也是文章中的一个重要信 息点，但文章的重点在于介绍这种新的DNA测试及其预防作用，而非仅仅讨论遗传原因。 高二·英语答案详解第2页（共7页） 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是夏季高温来袭，提醒人们注意防暑降温，避免热 相关疾病。 36.F前文提到极端高温和湿度显著增加热相关疾病的风险，后文开始列举具体防护建 议（如穿衣、选择环境等）。此处作为过渡句，总结前文的风险并引出后续措施，故选F项。 37.E根据37空前面讲穿棉质衣服，因为棉质衣服有孔隙，透气。后面接着说不要忘 记擦防晒霜和带宽边帽子。这里需要解释棉质衣服的好处，选项E.They can draw sweat away from your skin more easily.“它们可以更容易地将汗水从你的皮肤上吸走”符合。故选E项。 38.B本段提到位置对体感温度的影响，比如沥青吸热，而阴凉处可以降温。所以这 里应该建议选择阴凉自然的环境，选项B“选择阴凉、自然的环境”符合。故选B项。 39.D根据39空前面提到特别注意老人、小孩和有既往病史的人，因为他们的风险更 高。选项D.They are at higher risk of heat-related illnesses..“他们患热相关疾病的风险更高”符 合。故选D项。 40.C根据40空前面说多喝水帮助排汗，泡到水里可以帮助降温。这里需要说明泡到 水里的好处，选项C“它可以降低你的核心体温”符合。故选C项。 第三部分语言运用（共两节；满分30分） 第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 4l.B根据下文中的“When we gathered all the cattle to the gate'”可知，他们计划把牛群 赶过一个大门，然后到高处去，故选B。 42.D他们在农场里放牛，所以是在农场院子里把牛群聚集起来，故选D。A选项 “house”(房子)不符合语境：B选项“sheep”(羊)与文章说的牛群不符：C选项“entrance” (入口)也不合适，这里是在农场的区域内把牛群聚集起来，不是在某个入口处。 43.C根据“with thunder'”以及后面提到的暴风雨来临可知，天空是多云的，故选C。 A选项“sunny”(晴朗的)、B选项“blue”(蓝色的，常指晴朗的天空)、D选项“clear”(清澈 的，晴朗的)都不符合暴风雨来临前的天气状况 44.A此处表示牛群在雷雨前的犹豫状态，“as if they could not make a decision”提示动 作迟缓，A项最符合语境。 45.D根据“1 lit up the sky'”以及当时是暴风雨天气可知，是“闪电”照亮了天空，故选 D。A选项“sun”(太阳)在暴风雨时不会出现：B选项“wind”(风)不能照亮天空；C选项 “moon”(月亮)在白天暴风雨时也不会出现。 46.A根据上文提到牛群不愿通过大门以及“But I drove my wing of the herd too hard.” 可知，他们决定更用力地驱赶牛群，故选A。B选项“slighter'”(更轻微的)与文意相反；C选 项“forward”(向前)和D选项“backward”(向后)在这里没有“更用力驱赶”的意思准确。 47.C根据上文提到牛群受惊以及后面作者说让牛群重新回到大门等内容可知，牛群 受惊后散开了，故选C。A选项“combined'”(结合，联合)、B选项“assembled'”(组装，聚 集)、D选项“revolved”(环绕，转动)都不符合牛群受惊后分散的状态 48.B根据“.the worse I felt..So,I turned back.”可知l,作者离开得越远，感觉越糟糕， 高二·英语答案详解第3页（共7页） 故选B。A选项“wider'”(更宽)、C选项“closer”(更近)、D选项“deeper'"(更深)都不符合 语境，这里是说作者和父亲离开牛群越远，心里越觉得不安。 49.C根据“I determined not to give in'”可知，作者充满了勇气，决定不放弃，故选C。 A选项“excitement'”(兴奋)、B选项“disappointment'"(失望)、D选项“anxiety”(焦虑)都不符 合作者当时决定不放弃，要克服困难的心态。 50.A作者决定不放弃，要无视天气的恶劣，继续完成驱赶牛群的任务，故选A。B选 项“feared'”(害怕)、C选项“observed”(观察)、D选项“doubted”(怀疑)都不符合作者要克 服困难的决心。 51.B根据上文牛群受惊分散开来以及作者决定再次尝试可知，牛群再次被赶回了大 门，故选B。A选项“hen”(然后)、C选项“finally”(最终)、D选项“even”(甚至)都不符 合语境，有了再次，才有后面的成功。 52.D这次作者没有再催促牛群。hurry up有“使赶快，催促”的意思，所以选D。A 选项“pick up”(捡起，接载，学会等)、B选项“make up”(组成，编造，弥补等)、C选项 “cheer up”(使高兴，使振作)都不符合语境，这里是说作者不再像之前那样着急地驱赶牛群。 53.B作者下了马，去引导带头的牛，故选B。A选项“got on”(上车，上马等)与文意 相反；C选项“goom”(从…得到)、D选项“goto”(到达)都不符合语境。 54.C作者让带头的牛朝正确的方向走，故选C。A选项“wrog”(错误的)不符合逻 辑；B选项“lef”(左边的)和D选项“previous'”(以前的，以往的)在文中没有依据，这里是 说让牛朝着能通过大门的正确方向走。 55.A作者成功地把牛群赶过了大门，父亲脸上露出了骄傲的笑容，故选A。B选项 “painful”(痛苦的)、C选项“powerful"(有力的)、D选项“humorous'”(幽默的)都不符合父亲 看到作者成功后的心情和语境。 第二节语法填空（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56.to make此处应用动词不定式“to make”作形容词“easy”的补语，表示“容易做”。 57.nicer空格前有“even”,这里应使用比较级“nicer'”,表示“更加美味”。 58.to add sth.o是一个常见的固定搭配，表示将某物加入到另一物中。 59.an此处泛指一篇文章，应使用不定冠词。article是可数名词，且其发音以元音音素 开头，故填an。 60.were described分析句子可知，此处为谓语动词，hey与describe之间为动宾关系， 应用被动语态，根据空格前的“made the list'”可知，此处用一般过去时，故填were deseribed.。 6l.makers maker是可数名词，且此处指的是多个熟练的煎饼制作者，故应用maker的 复数形式。 62.hal此处为“so..ha.…”句型，用于引导结果状语从句，表示“如此…以至于…”。 63.smoked这里使用过去分词“smoked'”作为形容词，修饰“meal”,表示“熏肉”。 64.Strictly此处应用副词“Strictly”修饰动词“speaking”,表示“严格来说”。 65,eating

One day,Kinuthia read an advertisement from the National Olympic Committee of Kenya,calling for people interested in pursuing further studies in sports-related subjects.With renewed hope,he submitted his application. "Luck was on my side,"Kinuthia said happily."After considering my documents, they told me Okay.” Following careful preparation,Kinuthia's dream was about to come true.At a gala event hosted by Zhou Pingjian,the esteemed Chinese Ambassador to Kenya,Kinuthia delivered a heartfelt speech,expressing his gratitude to the Chinese Embassy() for their tireless efforts in making educational pursuits in China accessible to Kenyans. 高二·英语第2页（共10页） Zhou,in his address,warmly welcomed the students and said,"I know each of you will be serving as a goodwill ambassador of Kenya while in China.Not every Chinese can have the opportunity to be in Kenya.They will have their impression of Kenya by interacting with you."Kinuthia felt confident that he would represent Kenya,and would do a good job. Henry Rotich,the chairman of the Kenya-China Alumni Association,added that the scholarship program has become an important tool of education,strengthening the bonds of friendship between the two nations. For Kinuthia,this journey marks the beginning of a new chapter.With a clear vision and a determined spirit,he is ready to embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in China,working tirelessly to achieve his goals and bring back the knowledge to inspire future generations. 24.What happened to Kinuthia when he first tried to study abroad? A.His dream was destroyed. B.He failed all his applications. C.He received a scholarship offer. D.He learned communication skills. 25.What did the National Olympic Committee of Kenya advertise?

B.It is used to promote sports in Kenya. C.It can make Kenya-China ties closer. D.It focuses on more job opportunities. 27.Which can be the best title of the passage? A.From Kenya to China:A Dream Realized B.Kenya-China Educational Cooperation C.Kinuthia's Joumey Abroad Successfully D.Turning a New Leaf for the Young Coach C Just before sunrise,a big seafood meeting happens near Honolulu Harbor.As two dozen or so buyers enter the United Fishing Agency warehouse,they wear coats over their shirts to prevent the cold.They call their customers in Tokyo,Los Angeles, Honolulu-wherever expensive fish are eaten-and wait. Soon,the big doors on the ocean side of the warehouse open,and workers start 高二·英语第3页（共10页） displaying fish on platforms.The tuna are as round and wide as a car wheel.For spearfish and swordfish,their long noses are cut off,and their bodies lie in rows like dull gray beams.Opah(),with big,round eyes like hockey balls,have thick lips. They all take their places in the hall. The sellers cut small pieces from the fish as samples and place the meat on their pale white bellies.The buyers finger these pieces,trying to estimate the quality from the color,clarity,and fat content.They get instructions on their phones,and prices are negotiated through unspoken hand gestures.When a fish is sold,a small piece of paper is put on the fish,with vague handwriting notes.One by one,the fish are sold to the person who offers the most money.This is how the ocean's treasure from the north- central Pacific is shared among some of the richest people in the world. While this auction feeds the wealthy,the global fishing industry tells a darker story. Every year,more than 170 billion pounds of wild fish and shellfish are caught in the oceans-approximately three times the weight of every man,woman,and child in the United States.Fisheries managers call this overwhelming quantity of mass-hunted wildlife the“world catch(全球捕获量)”，and many people think that this harvest has been relatively stable over the past decade.But an ongoing study conducted by Daniel Pauly,a fisheries scientist,cooperating with Enric Sala,from National Geographic,suggests that the world catch is neither stable nor fairly divided among the nations of the world. The wealthier nations that purchase most of the products of these fisheries are essentially privatizing them.Poorer countries simply cannot afford to buy high-value species. 28.What can be inferred about the seafood customers? A.They prefer freshly caught fish. B.They are from high-end customer markets. C.They focus on affordable seafood. D.They visit the warehouse personally. 29.How can the buyers know the quality of the fish? A.From their customers'advice. B.From the sellers'introduction. C.From the paper on the fish. D.From touching flesh samples. 30.What does the underlined word "auction"mean in Paragraph 4? A.Public sale. B.Peak season. C.Final price. D.Press conference. 高二·英语第4页（共10页） 31.Where is this passage most likely taken from? A.A travel guide about Honolulu's attractions. B.A cooking magazine featuring seafood recipes. C.An investigative report on marine conservation issues. D.An adventure novel set in Hawaii's fishing community. D Scientists from the University of Cambridge found a gene problem that causes PRA (犬类进行性视网膜菱缩)in English Shepherd Dogs.They developed a DNA test to identify this issue before dogs lose their sight.This helps the animal keepers stop the disease from spreading to puppies (young dogs).Usually,owners don't know their dog has PRA until it's middle-aged.By then,the dog might have already made puppies with the bad gene.But now,PRA can be prevented quickly from English Shepherds. Katherine Stanbury,a researcher,explained,"Once a dog starts to lose its vision, there is no treatment;it will eventually become completely blind.But with the new DNA test,there's no reason why any more English Shepherd Dogs should be born with this form of PRA.It gives keepers a way to get rid of the disease entirely." The gene for PRA is hidden.A dog needs two bad copies of the gene to get PRA. One bad copy means the dog can pass it on.If two dogs with one bad copy have puppies,one out of four might get PRA.Dog keepers frequently breed(繁殖；饲养) English Shepherds from close families,which makes them more likely to have gene problems.The study started when an owner asked for help with a blind English Shepherd.The team collected DNA samples from other English Shepherds and used high-tech methods to find the exact gene issue. The university now offers a DNA testing service for dog owners to prevent inherited diseases that are passed through genes.The test costs S 48 and is done by rubbing the dog's mouth with special cotton.Dr.Cathryn Mellersh noted,"Owners might not notice their dog's vision problems until the dog bumps into things.For the cost of a good bag of dog food,owners can test their English Shepherds for PRA before they breed.This is to prevent,not to cure.It means a lot to breeders.They no longer have to worry if their puppies will stay healthy or develop this terrible disease." This research could also provide insights into a similar human disease called retinitis pigmentosa(视网膜色素变性症)，which also causes blindness. 高二·英语第5页（共10页） 32.Why did researchers develop a DNA test for PRA?
