We entered the hospital together. After about a month, its injury healed, and I decided to release it back into the wild,” he said. “That day left a deep impression on me. The little white crane circled above my head for a long time before flying away. It felt like it recognized me and was reluctant to leave.” Over the decades, Wang has rescued and released over 300 birds and participated in more than 180 projects involving the protection of migratory birds.

On that day, he spotted nearly 400 white cranes in his patrol area near Poyang Lake.(11月23日是王小龙去年冬天最开心的一天。那天，他在鄱阳湖附近的巡逻区域发现了近400只白鹤。)”可知，11月23日对王小龙来说意义非凡，是因为他目睹了大量候鸟聚集。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““Protecting the birds of Poyang Lake is my duty. This work has become a significant part of my life and holds the utmost importance to me. By protecting nature’s spirits, I have found my life’s purpose,” Wang said. (“保护鄱阳湖的鸟类是我的职责。这份工作已经成为我生活中重要的一部分，对我来说至关重要。通过保护自然界的精灵，我找到了人生的目标，”王说。)”可知，作者通过引用王小龙的个人陈述来体现他对鸟类保护的奉献。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“He spotted the injured young crane during his patrol and brought it back to the protection station, where he fed it small fish and shrimp and took it to the bird hospital for treatment.(他在巡逻时发现了这只受伤的幼鹤，把它带回了保护站，在那里喂它小鱼小虾，并带它去鸟类医院治疗。)”及第六段中幼鹤康复后不舍离开的描述可知，这段经历体现了王小龙善良且有爱心的性格。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He has received numerous honors, including being named “Jiangxi’s most beautiful environmentalist”.

This will raise the total tax rate to nearly 19%, with the state and counties also imposing a combined 4.712%tax. The measure is expected to generate $100 million. The funds will be used for projects like adding sand to broken beaches, protecting coral reefs, and removing wildfire-fueling grasses. Josh Green, who supports the bill, believes that the tax will help prevent future disasters like the Maui wildfire, which caused a 13 billion loss and claimed 102 lives. He argues that Hawaii’s 10 million annual visitors should contribute to protecting the environment. Jerry Gibson, president of the Hawaii Hotel Alliance, said the hotel industry was pleased Hawaii didn’t adopt a higher increase that was initially suggested. “I don’t think that there’s anybody in the tourism industry that says, Well, let’s go out and tax more. No one wants to see that,” Gibson said. “But our home needs money to beautify Hawaii’s environment, and it will be worth it.” Hawaii has long struggled to pay for the vast environmental and conservation needs. Hawaii had previously considered requiring tourists to pay for a license to visit it but this idea was rejected. Boosting this tax is their compromise (折中) solution, one made more urgent by the Maui wildfires. There is a$561 million shortfall in Hawaii’s conservation funding needs. The tax increase won’t fully cover the gap, but Hawaii plans to issue bonds to ensure sufficient funds. Kawika Riley, an officer of Hawaii, pointed to the Hawaiian saying, “A stranger only for a day,” to explain the new tax. It means that a visitor should help with the work after the first day of being a guest. “Nobody is saying that literally our visitors have to come here and start working for us. But what we are saying is that it’s crucial to be part of the solution,” Riley said. 8. What is the purpose of Hawaii’s plan to increase tax on accommodation? A. To boost tourism income. B. To address environmental challenges. C. To punish illegal tourists. D. To solve people’s livelihood problems 9. How does the hotel industry respond to the increasing tax? A. Unsure of the long-term benefits. B. Relieved by the current tax increase C. Eager for the arrival of the tax increase D. Concerned about the tourism impact. 10. What makes the tax increase more urgent? A. The impact of the natural disaster. B. The rejection of the license policy. C. The decline in national support. D. The increase in local tourism. 11. What is Riley’s attitude to the tax increase? A. Intolerant. B. Skeptical. C. Approving. D. Objective. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。夏威夷计划增加对游客住宿征收的税款以应对气候问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Hawaii is ready to hike a tax imposed (征税) on travelers staying in hotels, vacation rentals and other short-term accommodations and apply the new money for programs to cope with a warming planet. (夏威夷准备对入住酒店、度假屋及其他短期住宿场所的游客征收税款，并将这笔新增收入用于相关项目，以应对全球变暖问题。)”可知，夏威夷提高住宿税的目的是为了应对环境问题。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Jerry Gibson, president of the Hawaii Hotel Alliance, said the hotel industry was pleased Hawaii didn’t adopt a higher increase that was initially suggested. “I don’t think that there’s anybody in the tourism industry that says, Well, let’s go out and tax more. No one wants to see that,” Gibson said. “But our home needs money to beautify Hawaii’s environment, and it will be worth it.” (夏威夷酒店联盟主席杰里·吉布森表示，酒店业对此表示满意，因为夏威夷没有采纳最初提出的更高税率方案。“我认为旅游业中的任何人都不会说，‘好吧，那我们就去增加更多税收吧。’没有人愿意看到这种情况发生。”吉布森说道。“但我们的家乡需要资金来美化夏威夷的环境，这终将是有价值的。”)”可知，酒店业对当前的税费上调感到欣慰。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Hawaii has long struggled to pay for the vast environmental and conservation needs. Hawaii had previously considered requiring tourists to pay for a license to visit it, but this idea was rejected. Boosting this tax is their compromise (折中) solution, one made more urgent by the Maui wildfires. (夏威夷长期以来一直难以承担其庞大的环境与保护方面的费用。夏威夷此前曾考虑要求游客支付参观的许可证费用，但这一想法被否决了。增加这项税收是他们达成的妥协方案（折中解决方案），由于毛伊岛的野火事件，这一方案显得更为紧迫。)”可知，促使此次增税更为紧迫的原因是自然灾害的影响。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Kawika Riley, an officer of Hawaii, pointed to the Hawaiian saying, “A stranger only for a day,” to explain the new tax. It means that a visitor should help with the work after the first day of being a guest. “Nobody is saying that literally our visitors have to come here and start working for us. But what we are saying is that it’s crucial to be part of the solution,” Riley said. (夏威夷的一位官员卡维卡·莱利引用了夏威夷的一句谚语“一天的陌生人”来解释这项新税收政策。这句话的意思是，游客在成为客人后的第一天之后就应该参与工作。“没有人说我们的游客必须来到这里并为我们工作。但我们想说的是，参与解决方案至关重要。”莱利说道。)”可知，他对增加税款的支持态度。故选C。 D Sleep is one of the most fundamental building blocks of life. All animals sleep from dogs to humans. It has long been known that sleep also plays a significant role in physical and emotional health. But nobody might think that memory and learning are acquired while one is sleeping. However, in fact, the researchers from the University of South Australia have recently found that just the reverse is true. The researchers conducted an experiment with 35 native English speakers. These 35 participants were in the process of learning a mini-language called Mini Pinyan. Half of the students learned the language in the morning and then went on with their days, while the other half studied in the evening and then slept at the lab so that the researchers could record their brainwaves. Both groups were tested on their knowledge of Mini Pinyan in the morning, and the group that had slept soon after they studied performed significantly better than those who had not. According to previous research, there are two phases that the brain cycles through when sleeping. The first is called REM sleep. During this phase, which usually takes place about an hour and a half after a person has fallen asleep, brain activity peaks and shows levels similar to when that person is awake. This is when dreams occur. In non-REM sleep, brain activity is low. “Sleep is not just restful; it’s an active, transformative state for the brain,” Dr. Scott Cousins, a researcher of the study, said. They found that the improvements were linked to two types of brainwaves — slow oscillations and sleep spindles, which become coupled during non-REM sleep. The coupling of these brainwaves appears to help the transfer of information from the hippocampus to the cortex (大脑皮层), which is where long-term memory is stored. This is no doubt good news for anyone who wants to study a foreign language. What’s more, the implications of this study could also help improve the lives of those with language-related impairments. Now there is one more reason to get a good night’s sleep. 12. What does the underlined word “reverse” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Descriptive. B. Innovative. C. Opposite. D. Prospective. 13. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The setup and result of the experiment. B. Health benefits of sleeping in the evening. C. The relationship between brainwaves and memory. D. Differences between morning and evening learning styles. 14. What is a key characteristic of REM sleep? A. Absence of dreams. B. High brain activity. C. Enhancing of memory. D. Frequent information communication. 15. Why did the participants studying before sleeping perform better? A. Morning study was faced with more distractions. B. Their cortex stored memories more efficiently while asleep. C. Physical rest gained from sleep provided them with more energy. D. Non-REM sleep brainwaves helped strengthen long-term memory. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了南澳大利亚大学的研究人员通过实验发现睡眠对记忆和学习有积极作用，打破了人们以往认为记忆和学习不在睡眠中进行的认知。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“It has long been known that sleep also plays a significant role in physical and emotional health. But nobody might think that memory and learning are acquired while one is sleeping. However, in fact, the researchers from the University of South Australia have recently found that just the reverse is true. (长期以来，人们都知道睡眠在身心健康中起着重要作用。但可能没人会认为记忆和学习是在睡眠中获得的。然而，事实上，南澳大利亚大学的研究人员最近发现情况恰恰reverse。)” 可知，之前人们认为睡眠中不能获得记忆和学习，而研究发现并非如此，所以“reverse”意思是“相反的”。故选C。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The researchers conducted an experiment with 35 native English speakers. These 35 participants were in the process of learning a mini-language called Mini Pinyan. Half of the students learned the language in the morning and then went on with their days, while the other half studied in the evening and then slept at the lab so that the researchers could record their brainwaves. (研究人员对 35 名以英语为母语的人进行了一项实验。这 35 名参与者正在学习一种名为 Mini Pinyan 的迷你语言。一半的学生在早上学习这种语言，然后继续他们的日常活动，而另一半在晚上学习，然后在实验室睡觉，以便研究人员记录他们的脑电波。)” 介绍了实验的设置。以及“Both groups were tested on their knowledge of Mini Pinyan in the morning, and the group that had slept soon after they studied performed significantly better than those who had not. (两组都在早上测试了他们对 Mini Pinyan 的知识，学习后不久就睡觉的那组表现明显好于没有睡觉的那组。)” 说明了实验结果。所以第二段主要关于实验的设置和结果。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The first is called REM sleep. During this phase, which usually takes place about an hour and a half after a person has fallen asleep, brain activity peaks and shows levels similar to when that person is awake. (第一个阶段称为快速眼动睡眠（REM 睡眠）。在这个阶段，通常发生在一个人入睡后大约一个半小时，大脑活动达到峰值，显示出与该人清醒时相似的水平。)” 可知，REM 睡眠的一个关键特征是大脑活动水平高。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“They found that the improvements were linked to two types of brainwaves — slow oscillations and sleep spindles, which become coupled during non - REM sleep. The coupling of these brainwaves appears to help the transfer of information from the hippocampus to the cortex (大脑皮层), which is where long-term memory is stored. (他们发现，这些改善与两种脑电波有关 —— 慢振荡和睡眠纺锤波，它们在非快速眼动睡眠期间耦合。这些脑电波的耦合似乎有助于将信息从海马体转移到大脑皮层，而大脑皮层是长期记忆存储的地方。)” 可知，睡前学习的参与者表现更好是因为非快速眼动睡眠脑电波有助于加强长期记忆。故选D。 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。 Volunteering means giving your time and abilities to aid others without the want of financial compensation (补偿). ____16____ While you won’t get paid for your community service, volunteering comes with a lot of other benefits.

Every evening, when the sun turned his room golden, he would sit on the floor with his loved guitar. His fingers moved quickly over the strings, creating music that sounded like the wind in the trees or birds singing. Villagers often stopped outside his house to listen, saying things like “He’s amazing!” But Ethan didn’t believe them. “What if my music is only good for this tiny place?” he thought, staring at the scratches on his guitar. One autumn day, a bright poster on the village board caught his eye. “Annual Talent Show!” it said, with a picture of a shiny trophy (奖杯). The prize was a chance to play at the big county fair. Ethan’s heart raced. For days, he walked around the poster, his hands deep in his pockets. He imagined people clapping, but also heard voices in his head, “What if I play the wrong notes? What if they think I’m just a nobody?” He touched the guitar’s worn edges, remembering all the hours he’d practiced. His grandfather, a gray-haired man with kind eyes, noticed Ethan’s worry. One evening, as the sky turned orange, he said, “Let’s take a walk.” They went to their favorite oak tree. Sitting on a rock, the old man said, “When I was young, I wanted to be a painter.” He told Ethan how he once visited an old artist’s studio. “The artist asked me to paint publicly. I was so scared, and I almost ran away.” Ethan leaned closer, eager to know more. “But then,” his grandfather added, “the artist told me, ‘Don’t think about others. Just paint what you feel.’” He pretended to hold a brush. “I painted a wild ocean-messy waves, crooked rocks. When I finished, people didn’t care about mistakes. They felt the storm.” He patted Ethan’s hand. “Your music doesn’t need to be perfect. It needs to be real.” Ethan decided to sign up. A few days later, the day of Annual Talent Show finally arrived. 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。 Backstage, Ethan grasped his guitar, palms sweating. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, Ethan didn’t mind who got the grand prize. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Backstage, Ethan grasped his guitar, palms sweating. His heart beat so fast that he could barely hear the crowd cheering. Suddenly, he remembered his grandfather’s words, “Just play what you feel.” Taking a deep breath, he stepped onto the stage. The bright lights blinded him for a moment, but as his fingers touched the strings, the music flowed out like a river. At first, his hands shook, but soon he closed his eyes and lost himself in music. When he finished, the audience clapped wildly. Although Ethan performed very well, the grand prize went to someone else. However, Ethan didn’t mind who got the grand prize. “Maybe real success is about courage, not winning,” he thought to himself. Sunlight streamed through the window, glowing on Ethan’s guitar. Outside, a group of kids stopped to listen. One boy pretended to play an air guitar, copying Ethan’s moves while a girl tapped rhythmically on a wooden stick. Nearby, elderly villagers paused their chores, singing along to his music. Laughing, Ethan waved at them. He kept playing, not for prizes or praise, but for the joy it brought. As the music floated through the village, he knew his grandfather was right — true art comes from the heart. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了15岁的伊桑热爱弹吉他，但缺乏自信，担心自己的音乐仅限于小村庄。在看到年度才艺表演的海报后，他犹豫是否要参加。祖父通过分享自己年轻时的经历鼓励他，告诉他真正的艺术来自内心，不需要完美。伊桑决定报名参赛，并在比赛中表现出色，尽管未获大奖，但他领悟到真正的成功在于勇气而非胜利。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“后台，伊桑紧握吉他，掌心冒汗。”可知，第一段可描写伊桑在后台紧张的心情以及上台后的表现。 ②由第二段首句内容“然而，伊桑并不在意谁获得了大奖。”可知，第二段可描写伊桑对获奖的看法以及他的感悟。 2.续写线索：紧握吉他——紧张——想起祖父的话——上台表演——表演出色——未获奖——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①心跳：his heart beat/his heart pound ②上台：step onto the stage/go on stage ③颤抖：shake/shiver 情绪类 ①勇气：courage/bravery ②快乐：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] His heart beat so fast that he could barely hear the crowd cheering.  (由so...that...引导的结果状语从句) [高分句型2] Although Ethan performed very well, the grand prize went to someone else.

On that day, he spotted nearly 400 white cranes (鹤) in his patrol (巡逻) area near Poyang Lake. “I was thrilled. It was the largest number of migratory birds I had seen in months,” Wang said. Wang has been a patrol officer at the Wucheng protection and administration station of the Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve Bureau for 38 years. Each morning, around 5 am, he rises early, has a simple breakfast, and sets off from the protection station. “Protecting the birds of Poyang Lake is my duty. This work has become a significant part of my life and holds the utmost importance to me. By protecting nature’s spirits, I have found my life’s purpose,” Wang said. Wang fondly recalls rescuing a young white crane 20 years ago on a winter’s day. He spotted the injured young crane during his patrol and brought it back to the protection station, where he fed it small fish and shrimp and took it to the bird hospital for treatment. “I remember when we went to the hospital; I walked in front, and the young crane followed me. We entered the hospital together. After about a month, its injury healed, and I decided to release it back into the wild,” he said. “That day left a deep impression on me. The little white crane circled above my head for a long time before flying away. It felt like it recognized me and was reluctant to leave.” Over the decades, Wang has rescued and released over 300 birds and participated in more than 180 projects involving the protection of migratory birds. He has received numerous honors, including being named “Jiangxi’s most beautiful environmentalist”. 4. What made November 23 a remarkable day for Wang last winter? A.

He works alone without any partners. C. It has been recognized and praised by others D. His projects are funded by international organizations. C Hawaii is ready to hike a tax imposed (征税) on travelers staying in hotels, vacation rentals and other short-term accommodations and apply the new money for programs to cope with a warming planet. This will raise the total tax rate to nearly 19%, with the state and counties also imposing a combined 4.712%tax. The measure is expected to generate $100 million. The funds will be used for projects like adding sand to broken beaches, protecting coral reefs, and removing wildfire-fueling grasses. Josh Green, who supports the bill, believes that the tax will help prevent future disasters like the Maui wildfire, which caused a 13 billion loss and claimed 102 lives. He argues that Hawaii’s 10 million annual visitors should contribute to protecting the environment. Jerry Gibson, president of the Hawaii Hotel Alliance, said the hotel industry was pleased Hawaii didn’t adopt a higher increase that was initially suggested. “I don’t think that there’s anybody in the tourism industry that says, Well, let’s go out and tax more. No one wants to see that,” Gibson said. “But our home needs money to beautify Hawaii’s environment, and it will be worth it.” Hawaii has long struggled to pay for the vast environmental and conservation needs. Hawaii had previously considered requiring tourists to pay for a license to visit it, but this idea was rejected. Boosting this tax is their compromise (折中) solution, one made more urgent by the Maui wildfires. There is a$561 million shortfall in Hawaii’s conservation funding needs. The tax increase won’t fully cover the gap, but Hawaii plans to issue bonds to ensure sufficient funds. Kawika Riley, an officer of Hawaii, pointed to the Hawaiian saying, “A stranger only for a day,” to explain the new tax. It means that a visitor should help with the work after the first day of being a guest. “Nobody is saying that literally our visitors have to come here and start working for us. But what we are saying is that it’s crucial to be part of the solution,” Riley said. 8. What is the purpose of Hawaii’s plan to increase tax on accommodation? A. To boost tourism income. B. To address environmental challenges. C. To punish illegal tourists. D. To solve people’s livelihood problems 9. How does the hotel industry respond to the increasing tax? A. Unsure of the long-term benefits. B. Relieved by the current tax increase C. Eager for the arrival of the tax increase D. Concerned about the tourism impact. 10. What makes the tax increase more urgent? A. The impact of the natural disaster. B. The rejection of the license policy. C. The decline in national support. D. The increase in local tourism. 11. What is Riley’s attitude to the tax increase? A. Intolerant. B. Skeptical. C. Approving. D. Objective. D Sleep is one of the most fundamental building blocks of life. All animals sleep, from dogs to humans. It has long been known that sleep also plays a significant role in physical and emotional health. But nobody might think that memory and learning are acquired while one is sleeping. However, in fact, the researchers from the University of South Australia have recently found that just the reverse is true. The researchers conducted an experiment with 35 native English speakers. These 35 participants were in the process of learning a mini-language called Mini Pinyan. Half of the students learned the language in the morning and then went on with their days, while the other half studied in the evening and then slept at the lab so that the researchers could record their brainwaves. Both groups were tested on their knowledge of Mini Pinyan in the morning, and the group that had slept soon after they studied performed significantly better than those who had not. According to previous research, there are two phases that the brain cycles through when sleeping. The first is called REM sleep. During this phase, which usually takes place about an hour and a half after a person has fallen asleep, brain activity peaks and shows levels similar to when that person is awake. This is when dreams occur. In non-REM sleep, brain activity is low. “Sleep is not just restful; it’s an active, transformative state for the brain,” Dr. Scott Cousins, a researcher of the study, said. They found that the improvements were linked to two types of brainwaves — slow oscillations and sleep spindles, which become coupled during non-REM sleep. The coupling of these brainwaves appears to help the transfer of information from the hippocampus to the cortex (大脑皮层), which is where long-term memory is stored.

Every evening, when the sun turned his room golden, he would sit on the floor with his loved guitar. His fingers moved quickly over the strings, creating music that sounded like the wind in the trees or birds singing. Villagers often stopped outside his house to listen, saying things like “He’s amazing!” But Ethan didn’t believe them. “What if my music is only good for this tiny place?” he thought, staring at the scratches on his guitar. One autumn day, a bright poster on the village board caught his eye. “Annual Talent Show!” it said, with a picture of a shiny trophy (奖杯). The prize was a chance to play at the big county fair. Ethan’s heart raced. For days, he walked around the poster, his hands deep in his pockets. He imagined people clapping, but also heard voices in his head, “What if I play the wrong notes? What if they think I’m just a nobody?” He touched the guitar’s worn edges, remembering all the hours he’d practiced. His grandfather, a gray-haired man with kind eyes, noticed Ethan’s worry. One evening, as the sky turned orange, he said, “Let’s take a walk.” They went to their favorite oak tree. Sitting on a rock, the old man said, “When I was young, I wanted to be a painter.” He told Ethan how he once visited an old artist’s studio. “The artist asked me to paint publicly. I was so scared, and I almost ran away.” Ethan leaned closer, eager to know more. “But then,” his grandfather added, “the artist told me, ‘Don’t think about others. Just paint what you feel.’” He pretended to hold a brush. “I painted a wild ocean-messy waves, crooked rocks. When I finished, people didn’t care about mistakes. They felt the storm.” He patted Ethan’s hand. “Your music doesn’t need to be perfect. It needs to be real.” Ethan decided to sign up. A few days later, the day of Annual Talent Show finally arrived. 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。 Backstage, Ethan grasped his guitar, palms sweating. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, Ethan didn’t mind who got the grand prize. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
