Before, Richard Cotter was known for his sharp mind. Now, he found it too difficult to deal with the slightest bit of pressure. The next few years, he lost job from job. Everyone assumed it was a crisis of confidence. No one suspected the underlying reason: cognitive decline due to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Then, when Richard Cotter was 58, he was formally diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s. Paul Cotter recalls that his father was horrified by the diagnosis. “But I imagine he also felt some sense of relief,” Paul Cotter said. “Finally, there was an explanation for his decline. And in spite of it all, he still wanted to keep working.” That’s where Paul Cotter’s unsung hero stepped in. It was the Hidden Brain team. When Cotter’s father applied for a job there, he disclosed (透露) his diagnosis and the limitations that came with it. But still the firm offered him the position — handling small tasks like making copies. “They gave him a paycheck, which made him feel needed and valued,” Cotter said. “But more than just a job, they gave him respect, dignity and a sense of purpose at a time when his life was falling apart.” The disease continued to progress. Eventually, his father had difficulty keeping his balance, and one day, he fell off a small stepladder. It was clear that it was no longer safe for him to continue working. The company let Cotter’s parents know that with deep regret, it would have to let his father go. On his father’s final day on the job, his colleagues threw him a goodbye party to thank him for his service. “What a beautiful, remarkable gesture that was,” Cotter said. Cotter’s three brothers and sister still talk about the company’s care for their father. They wish they could tell their father’s colleagues how much that generosity has meant to their family, all these years later. 4. What do we know about Richard from paragraph 1? A. He used to be considered intelligent. B. He regained confidence in job-hunting. C. He needed outside assistance to survive. D. He was the oldest worker at the printing company. 5. Which words best describe Richard after his formal diagnosis? A. Puzzled but energetic. B. Confident and ambitious. C. Bored and annoyed. D. Scared but relieved. 6. How did the Hidden Brain help Richard? A. By assigning manageable tasks. B. By offering a well-paid position. C. By providing post-retirement instructions. D. By working out a new cure for Alzheimer’s. 7. What can we say about the impact of the Hidden Brain on Cotter’s family? A. Predictable. B. Short-lived. C. Far-reaching. D. Insignificant. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了保罗·科特的父亲患早发性阿尔茨海默病后被原公司解雇，后来Hidden Brain团队雇他，后因病情离职时同事为他办告别派对。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Before, Richard Cotter was known for his sharp mind.(此前，理查德以思维敏捷著称)”可知，理查德过去被认为很聪明。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Paul Cotter recalls that his father was horrified by the diagnosis. “But I imagine he also felt some sense of relief,” Paul Cotter said. “Finally, there was an explanation for his decline. And in spite of it all, he still wanted to keep working.”(保罗·科特回忆说，他的父亲被诊断结果吓坏了。“但我想他也可能感到了某种解脱，”保罗说，“终于，他的衰退原因有了一个解释。尽管如此，他仍然想要继续工作。”)”可知，在正式确诊之后，对于理查德而言，感到害怕但又感到宽慰。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But still the firm offered him the position — handling small tasks like making copies.(但公司仍然给他提供了职位——负责处理诸如复印之类的简单任务)”可知，Hidden Brain通过分配可完成的任务帮助理查德。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“They wish they could tell their father’s colleagues how much that generosity has meant to their family, all these years later.(他们希望能告诉父亲的同事们，这么多年过去了，这份慷慨对他们这个家庭来说意味着多么重要的意义)”可知，Hidden Brain对科特家庭所产生的影响是极其深远的。故选C。 C Rollout of 5G technology means a “game-changing milestone” in communication and connectivity. As more countries adopt 5G, we will start to see more of the impact of 5G in the coming years. Let’s dig deeper into this topic to learn more. The primary benefit of 5G is perhaps its breathtaking speed. The technology brings data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps-100 times faster than 4G. This means downloading a high-definition movie in seconds, when using 4G it took a matter of minutes. For businesses, 5G makes file sharing faster and collaboration more real-time while allowing access to the cloud smoothly. These speeds can be of great advantage in the coming year, especially to remote work, education, and telemedicine sectors. Another area that will feel the effects of 5G most strongly is the Internet of Things(IoT). In contrast to previous generations, 5G networks can support from 500,000 to 1,000,000 connected devices per square kilometer — this is a perfect base for IoT systems. In factories, 5G-powered robotics and automation will better production lines and reduce costs. In agriculture, precision farming techniques enabled by IoT and 5G will improve crop productivity and resource efficiency. Retail businesses will use 5G effectively to create personalized shopping experiences. With the right strategies in place, 5G can create a connected world that is more efficient, and inclusive, paving the way for a future defined by innovation and opportunity. 8. What do the underlined words “game-changing milestone” mean in paragraph 1? A. A minor improvement in technology. B. An explosive impact on development. C. An entertaining solution in connectivity. D. A routine update in communication systems. 9. What is the major advantage of 5G technology? A. Improved signal range. B. Increased data transfer speed. C. Reduced energy consumption. D. Enhanced security for data transmission. 10. How does the author develop paragraph 3? A. By giving examples. B. By analyzing causes. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the future application of 5G technology? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Worried. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍5G技术是通信连接的里程碑，其高速率和对物联网的支持能提升各行业效率，为创新机遇铺路。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“As more countries adopt 5G, we will start to see more of the impact of 5G in the coming years.(随着越来越多的国家采用5G技术，我们将在未来几年看到5G更多的影响)”可知，将在未来几年看到5G更多的影响，说明5G对发展产生的巨大影响。故划线词意思是“对发展产生的巨大影响”。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The primary benefit of 5G is perhaps its breathtaking speed.(5G的主要优势或许在于其惊人的传输速度)”可知，5G技术的主要优势是数据传输速度的提升。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In factories, 5G-powered robotics and automation will better production lines and reduce costs. In agriculture, precision farming techniques enabled by IoT and 5G will improve crop productivity and resource efficiency. Retail businesses will use 5G effectively to create personalized shopping experiences.(在工厂中，由5G支持的机器人和自动化技术将优化生产线并降低成本。在农业领域，由物联网和5G促成的精准农业技术将提高作物产量和资源利用效率。零售企业将有效利用5G来创造个性化的购物体验)”可知，作者通过举例展开第三段内容。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“With the right strategies in place, 5G can create a connected world that is more efficient, and inclusive, paving the way for a future defined by innovation and opportunity.(如果能制定出恰当的策略，5G将能够构建一个更加高效、包容的互联世界，为未来开辟一个充满创新与机遇的新纪元)”可知，作者对5G技术的未来应用持乐观态度。故选C。 D Every year, we learn more about how animals communicate with each other. A case in point is that research shows elephants greet each other by moving their ears and making low noises. It’s clear that communication in the animal kingdom is complex. But with all unique ways to communicate, is it possible for an animal to learn the “language” of another species? It turns out, there are examples of animals learning to understand — and even use — vocalizations or signals from species other than their own. But there’s still a lot of questions about what’s going on inside those animals’ heads. First off, although “language” is a useful metaphor when we’re thinking about one species understanding another, animals don’t actually have languages in the way humans do. “Language is kind of a species-specific communication system to humans,” Simon W. Townsend, a professor of evolutionary anthropology, told Live Science. When it comes to learning on sounds from other species, birds are one of the best-studied animals. But learning a “language” is about more than just understanding what you hear; it’s about being able to speak it, too. That’s where the fork-tailed drongo — a small, black bird found across Africa — excels (擅长). Drongos have a habit of following other animals around in the hope of stealing some of their food. Thomas Flower, a biology instructor, studied these birds in the field as they followed a group of meerkats. He found that the drongos would use their own alarm calls — a squawk that indicates a predator (捕食者) is approaching — to scare the meerkats into their holes, allowing the drongos to dive in and grab any leftover food. 12. Why does the author mention elephant’s greeting in paragraph 1? A. To display elephants’ talent. B. To introduce animal communication. C. To present dangers faced by elephants. D. To state the complexity of animal kingdom. 13. What does Townsend think of language? A. Difficult to comprehend. B. Limited to certain species. C. Similar among all animals. D. Well-explored by scientists. 14. What can we learn about fork-tailed drongos? A. They can interact with humans. B. They are the only animals that steal food. C. They are more intelligent than other animals. D. They can learn and use another species' signals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Biodiversity Adds Color to the World B. Will Animals and Humans Live in Harmony? C. Can Animals Learn Another Species’ Language? D. Animals’ Communication Patterns Vary Across Species 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨动物是否有可能学习其他物种“语言”这一问题，通过列举鸟类等动物的例子进行分析说明。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Every year, we learn more about how animals communicate with each other. A case in point is that research shows elephants greet each other by moving their ears and making low noises.(每年，我们都对动物之间如何相互交流有更多了解。一个典型的例子是，研究表明大象通过动耳朵和发出低吼声来互相打招呼)”可知，作者提及大象打招呼的方式是为了引出动物交流这一话题，进而探讨动物能否学习其他物种“语言”。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Language is kind of a species-specific communication system to humans,” Simon W. Townsend, a professor of evolutionary anthropology, told Live Science.(进化人类学教授西蒙·W·汤森德告诉《生活科学》：“语言对人类来说是一种特定物种的交流系统”)”可知，汤森德认为语言局限于特定物种。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When it comes to learning on sounds from other species, birds are one of the best-studied animals... That’s where the fork-tailed drongo — a small, black bird found across Africa — excels (擅长)(说到学习其他物种的声音，鸟类是研究得最多的动物之一……叉尾卷尾鸟——一种在非洲各地都能找到的黑色小鸟——在这方面很擅长)”以及第五段“ He found that the drongos would use their own alarm calls — a squawk that indicates a predator ( 捕食者 ) is approaching — to scare the meerkats into their holes, allowing the drongos to dive in and grab any leftover food.(他发现叉尾卷尾鸟会用它们自己表示捕食者正在靠近的警报叫声——一种尖叫——把狐獴吓进洞里，这样叉尾卷尾鸟就可以冲进去抢走任何剩下的食物)”可知，叉尾卷尾鸟能学习并使用其他物种的信号。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“But with all unique ways to communicate, is it possible for an animal to learn the “language” of another species?(但是，有了所有独特的交流方式，动物有可能学习另一个物种的‘语言’吗？)”可知，文章主要围绕动物能否学习其他物种“语言”展开讨论，C选项“动物能学习其他物种的语言吗？”最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 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。 Taking time to care for your body and mind is very important to prevent burnout (劳累过度).

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍预防劳累过度的方法：写日记、远离电子设备、规律锻炼、做感兴趣的事，及各自的具体做法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Taking time to care for your body and mind is very important to prevent burnout (劳累过度). Failing to give yourself the care that you deserve can lead to you feeling tired, anxious, and overwhelmed.(花时间照顾好自己的身体和心灵对于预防过度劳累非常重要。如果不能给予自己应有的关爱，就可能会导致感到疲惫、焦虑和不堪重负)”可知，前文提及照顾身心可防劳累过度，不照顾会疲惫等，本句承上启下，引出下文具体方法，故G选项“采取健康的生活习惯和进行自我护理是保持精力充沛的有效方法”符合语境，故选G。 【17题详解】 根据后文“Using a physical journal will be more effective, but any journal is better than nothing!(使用实体日记会更有效果，但任何日记都比没有要好！)”可知，本句是在建议使用实体日记的形式，故F选项“更好地选择用纸质日记本而不是使用电脑来书写”符合语境，故选F。 【18题详解】 此空为小标题；根据本段内容“Countless studies have linked the use of technology — including computers, cell phones and TVs — to sleeping problems. It’s important to set time aside each day to do something that doesn’t involve looking at a screen: read a book, go for a walk, or do whatever may attract you.(无数的研究都表明，使用科技产品（包括电脑、手机和电视）与睡眠问题有关。每天都要留出一些时间来做一些不涉及看屏幕的活动：比如读书、散步，或者做任何能吸引你的事情)”可知，该段围绕远离电子屏幕展开，B选项“关闭电子设备”能够概括本段主旨，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Studies have shown that exercise reorganizes the brain and improves memory and thinking skills, making it more resilient to stress. Experts recommend doing at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity(walking) or 75 minutes of vigorous physical activity(running) each week.(研究表明，运动能够重塑大脑，提升记忆力和思维能力，使大脑更能抵御压力。专家建议每周至少进行 150 分钟的中等强度运动（如散步）或 75 分钟的高强度运动（如跑步）)”可知，前文讲适度和剧烈运动时长，本句补充说明运动方式，故C选项“你也可以将这两项结合起来”符合语境，故选C。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Learn a second language; join a cooking class; take a writing class. Taking time to develop your interests will make you feel more fulfilled in life. If all you do is wake up, work go to school, come home, eat and sleep, it’s no wonder you’re feeling burnt out. Help keep yourself feeling refreshed and inspired by learning new things.(学习一门第二语言；参加烹饪课程；参加写作课程。花时间发展自己的兴趣爱好会让你在生活中感到更加满足。如果你的日常活动仅仅是起床、工作、上学、回家、吃饭和睡觉，那么难怪你会感到精疲力竭。通过学习新事物来帮助自己保持精神焕发、充满活力)”可知，段落讲做感兴趣的事，本句具体说明，与后文列举的活动呼应。故D选项“选择一些能让你感到快乐和满足的爱好”符合语境，故选D。 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。 When Ashley Blas was 7, her mother died.

Everything felt unfamiliar- the school layout, the teachers, the students with their established groups, and even the canteen food. The first few days were hard. He spent most breaks alone in the classroom, pretending to read, but he was absent-mind. The students were polite, but he felt invisible, as if a wall separated him from them. One afternoon, while walking through the school grounds, he saw a group of classmates trying to organize a soccer game. One boy, Zhang Tao, was struggling to carry a ball and cones, trying to set up the field by himself. Without thinking, Liang Li walked over and offered to help. Zhang Tao smiled, relieved. “Thanks! You can join us if you want. We need one more player.” Liang Li hesitated. He had never been good at soccer and wasn't sure he would fit in with these athletic students. “I’m not good at soccer,” he said awkwardly. But Zhang Tao shrugged. “It’s not about being good. We just want everyone to have fun.” Encouraged, Liang Li decided to join. Though he felt clumsy (笨拙的) at first, the others were friendly and patient. They joked, helped him understand the rules, and cheered when he made progress. Liang Li began to enjoy the game and, for the first time in days, felt a sense of belonging. After the game, Zhang Tao clapped him on the back and said, “You did great for your first time! ” The next few days, Liang Li looked forward to the soccer games. He became a regular member of the group, his skills improving. But more importantly, he started forming connections with his classmates, laughing and joking with them. Two months later, there came a match between Liang Li’s class and another class team. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the match got started, Liang Li ran towards the ball with determination. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later that afternoon, Liang Li sat with his teammates under a tree, laughing and sharing snacks. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 As the match got started, Liang Li ran towards the ball with determination. His heart was pounding in his chest, but he pushed aside his nervousness and focused on the game. He managed to pass the ball to a teammate, who quickly scored a goal. The team cheered, and Liang Li couldn’t help but smile. He wasn’t the best player, but he felt like an important part of the team. The match was intense, but they played with teamwork and spirit. At the end of the game, they won by a narrow margin. Later that afternoon, Liang Li sat with his teammates under a tree, laughing and sharing snacks. Zhang Tao handed him a bottle of water and gave him a pat on the back. “You did great today!” he said. Liang Li smiled, feeling a sense of belonging that he had never felt before. Thanks to his new friends and their encouragement, he was no longer the lonely new student. The experience had not only brought him closer to his teammates but had also given him the confidence to embrace new challenges. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了梁力转学到新高中后感到陌生孤独。一天，他帮张涛组织足球赛并加入，在队友友好鼓励下感受到归属感，逐渐融入。两个月后的班级比赛中，他助攻得分，助力球队险胜，彻底不再孤单，还收获了自信去迎接新挑战的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“比赛一开始，梁力就毅然决然地冲向足球。”可知，第一段可描写梁力和队友配合的经过并且最终以微弱优势获胜。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天下午晚些时候，梁力和队友们坐在树下，边笑边分享零食。”可知，第二段可描写张涛对梁力的赞赏以及这段经历给了梁力信心。 2.续写线索：冲向足球——和队友配合——获胜——和队友们坐在树下——对梁力的赞赏——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①专注于：focused on/concentrated on ②递给：handed /gave ③拥抱：embrace/ hug 情绪类 ①激烈的：intense/ drastic ②信心：confidence /self-assurance 【点睛】[高分句型1]He managed to pass the ball to a teammate, who quickly scored a goal.（运用了who引导的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2]Liang Li smiled, feeling a sense of belonging that he had never felt before.（运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语及that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年高一年级下学期期末考试 英语试题 本试卷共150分 考试时间为120分钟 答卷前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上, 并在规定位置粘贴考试用条形码。答卷时, 须将答案答在答题卡上, 在本试题卷、草稿纸上答题无效。考试结束后, 本试题卷由学生自己保留, 只将答题卡交回。 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, 并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

B When Paul Cotter’s father, Richard, was 52, he was fired from a large printing company after working there for over 30 years. Before, Richard Cotter was known for his sharp mind. Now, he found it too difficult to deal with the slightest bit of pressure. The next few years, he lost job from job. Everyone assumed it was a crisis of confidence. No one suspected the underlying reason: cognitive decline due to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Then, when Richard Cotter was 58, he was formally diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s. Paul Cotter recalls that his father was horrified by the diagnosis. “But I imagine he also felt some sense of relief,” Paul Cotter said. “Finally, there was an explanation for his decline. And in spite of it all, he still wanted to keep working.” That’s where Paul Cotter’s unsung hero stepped in. It was the Hidden Brain team. When Cotter’s father applied for a job there, he disclosed (透露) his diagnosis and the limitations that came with it. But still the firm offered him the position — handling small tasks like making copies. “They gave him a paycheck, which made him feel needed and valued,” Cotter said. “But more than just a job, they gave him respect, dignity and a sense of purpose at a time when his life was falling apart.” The disease continued to progress. Eventually, his father had difficulty keeping his balance, and one day, he fell off a small stepladder. It was clear that it was no longer safe for him to continue working. The company let Cotter’s parents know that with deep regret, it would have to let his father go. On his father’s final day on the job, his colleagues threw him a goodbye party to thank him for his service. “What a beautiful, remarkable gesture that was,” Cotter said. Cotter’s three brothers and sister still talk about the company’s care for their father. They wish they could tell their father’s colleagues how much that generosity has meant to their family, all these years later. 4. What do we know about Richard from paragraph 1? A. He used to be considered intelligent. B. He regained confidence in job-hunting. C. He needed outside assistance to survive. D. He was the oldest worker at the printing company. 5. Which words best describe Richard after his formal diagnosis? A. Puzzled but energetic. B. Confident and ambitious. C. Bored and annoyed. D. Scared but relieved. 6. How did the Hidden Brain help Richard? A. By assigning manageable tasks. B. By offering a well-paid position. C. By providing post-retirement instructions. D. By working out a new cure for Alzheimer’s. 7. What can we say about the impact of the Hidden Brain on Cotter’s family? A. Predictable. B. Short-lived. C. Far-reaching. D. Insignificant. C Rollout of 5G technology means a “game-changing milestone” in communication and connectivity. As more countries adopt 5G, we will start to see more of the impact of 5G in the coming years. Let’s dig deeper into this topic to learn more. The primary benefit of 5G is perhaps its breathtaking speed. The technology brings data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps-100 times faster than 4G. This means downloading a high-definition movie in seconds, when using 4G it took a matter of minutes. For businesses, 5G makes file sharing faster and collaboration more real-time while allowing access to the cloud smoothly. These speeds can be of great advantage in the coming year, especially to remote work, education, and telemedicine sectors. Another area that will feel the effects of 5G most strongly is the Internet of Things(IoT). In contrast to previous generations, 5G networks can support from 500,000 to 1,000,000 connected devices per square kilometer — this is a perfect base for IoT systems. In factories, 5G-powered robotics and automation will better production lines and reduce costs. In agriculture, precision farming techniques enabled by IoT and 5G will improve crop productivity and resource efficiency. Retail businesses will use 5G effectively to create personalized shopping experiences. With the right strategies in place, 5G can create a connected world that is more efficient, and inclusive, paving the way for a future defined by innovation and opportunity. 8. What do the underlined words “game-changing milestone” mean in paragraph 1? A. A minor improvement in technology. B. An explosive impact on development. C. An entertaining solution in connectivity. D. A routine update in communication systems. 9. What is the major advantage of 5G technology? A. Improved signal range. B. Increased data transfer speed. C. Reduced energy consumption. D. Enhanced security for data transmission. 10. How does the author develop paragraph 3? A. By giving examples. B. By analyzing causes. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the future application of 5G technology? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Worried. D Every year, we learn more about how animals communicate with each other. A case in point is that research shows elephants greet each other by moving their ears and making low noises. It’s clear that communication in the animal kingdom is complex. But with all unique ways to communicate, is it possible for an animal to learn the “language” of another species? It turns out, there are examples of animals learning to understand — and even use — vocalizations or signals from species other than their own. But there’s still a lot of questions about what’s going on inside those animals’ heads. First off, although “language” is a useful metaphor when we’re thinking about one species understanding another, animals don’t actually have languages in the way humans do. “Language is kind of a species-specific communication system to humans,” Simon W. Townsend, a professor of evolutionary anthropology, told Live Science. When it comes to learning on sounds from other species, birds are one of the best-studied animals. But learning a “language” is about more than just understanding what you hear; it’s about being able to speak it, too. That’s where the fork-tailed drongo — a small, black bird found across Africa — excels (擅长). Drongos have a habit of following other animals around in the hope of stealing some of their food. Thomas Flower, a biology instructor, studied these birds in the field as they followed a group of meerkats. He found that the drongos would use their own alarm calls — a squawk that indicates a predator (捕食者) is approaching — to scare the meerkats into their holes, allowing the drongos to dive in and grab any leftover food. 12. Why does the author mention elephant’s greeting in paragraph 1? A. To display elephants’ talent. B. To introduce animal communication. C. To present dangers faced by elephants. D. To state the complexity of animal kingdom. 13. What does Townsend think of language? A. Difficult to comprehend. B. Limited to certain species. C. Similar among all animals. D. Well-explored by scientists. 14. What can we learn about fork-tailed drongos? A. They can interact with humans. B. They are the only animals that steal food. C. They are more intelligent than other animals. D. They can learn and use another species' signals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Biodiversity Adds Color to the World B. Will Animals and Humans Live in Harmony? C. Can Animals Learn Another Species’ Language? D. Animals’ Communication Patterns Vary Across Species 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。 Taking time to care for your body and mind is very important to prevent burnout (劳累过度).

Everything felt unfamiliar- the school layout, the teachers, the students with their established groups, and even the canteen food. The first few days were hard. He spent most breaks alone in the classroom, pretending to read, but he was absent-mind. The students were polite, but he felt invisible, as if a wall separated him from them. One afternoon, while walking through the school grounds, he saw a group of classmates trying to organize a soccer game. One boy, Zhang Tao, was struggling to carry a ball and cones, trying to set up the field by himself. Without thinking, Liang Li walked over and offered to help. Zhang Tao smiled, relieved. “Thanks! You can join us if you want. We need one more player.” Liang Li hesitated. He had never been good at soccer and wasn't sure he would fit in with these athletic students. “I’m not good at soccer,” he said awkwardly. But Zhang Tao shrugged. “It’s not about being good. We just want everyone to have fun.” Encouraged, Liang Li decided to join. Though he felt clumsy (笨拙的) at first, the others were friendly and patient. They joked, helped him understand the rules, and cheered when he made progress. Liang Li began to enjoy the game and, for the first time in days, felt a sense of belonging. After the game, Zhang Tao clapped him on the back and said, “You did great for your first time! ” The next few days, Liang Li looked forward to the soccer games. He became a regular member of the group, his skills improving. But more importantly, he started forming connections with his classmates, laughing and joking with them. Two months later, there came a match between Liang Li’s class and another class team. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the match got started, Liang Li ran towards the ball with determination. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later that afternoon, Liang Li sat with his teammates under a tree, laughing and sharing snacks. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
