Aiming to celebrate our shared memories and promote the school spirit, the event features various activities. At the “Story Booth”, graduating students will share personal stories and how the school values have shaped who we are. Another highlight is the “My Legacy” fair, where we are welcome to leave behind meaningful items, such as study notes, medals from traditional events, or heartfelt messages to inspire future students and honour the school spirit. Following that, we will plant trees as our living legacy. You can check in at the lecture hall by 9 a.m. Bring your favourite items for the fair if you like. As a valued member of our class, your presence would mean a lot to us. Let’s celebrate this significant moment together! Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分 25 分） As he flipped through more photos, Jake’s eyes began to mist. There were pictures of him as a baby, always in his grandmother’s arms — smiling, feeding him, helping him take his first steps. He hadn’t remembered any of it, but the photos told a story of love and time shared. His anger from earlier now felt silly. Taking a deep breath, he set the album aside and got to work. He rolled up the old carpet, stacked boxes neatly, and swept the floor, stirring up clouds of dust. Spiderwebs clung to his sleeves, but he didn’t stop. The room slowly changed from a forgotten mess to a clean, 2 welcoming space. As sunlight streamed in, Jake looked around and smiled. Maybe this wasn’t such a bad way to spend a Saturday. The next morning, when his grandmother stepped into her new room, Jake handed her the album. She blinked in surprise, then smiled softly as she ran her fingers over the worn cover. “You found this?” she asked. Jake nodded.” I didn’t know we had so many memories.” They sat together on the edge of the bed, flipping through the pages. She laughed at some photos, explained others, and paused with misty eyes at a few. When they reached the last page, Jake grinned. “Let’s add a new one.” He grabbed his phone, held it out, and the two leaned in close. “Say cheese!” Click. A fresh photo joined the album—Jake and his grandmother, smiling side by side, ready to continue their story together. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了 Jake原本计划周六和朋友打篮球，但被妈妈 要求帮忙清理储藏室以迎接即将搬来的奶奶的故事。在清理过程中，Jake 发现了一本记录了 他和奶奶过去时光的相册，这让他对奶奶产生了新的认识。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当他翻看更多照片时，他的眼睛开始湿润了。”可知，第一段可描写 Jake 在翻看相册时，看到了自己和奶奶过去的照片，感受到了奶奶的爱，从而改变了之前对奶奶 搬来的不满态度，开始认真清理储藏室。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，当他的奶奶走进她的新房间时，Jake把相册递给了她。” 可知，第二段可描写 Jake 把相册送给奶奶，两人一起翻看相册，回忆过去，并决定一起继 续他们的故事，拍了一张新的照片加入相册。 2.续写线索：发现相册——翻看照片——感受奶奶的爱——改变态度——认真清理——奶奶 走进房间——把相册送给奶奶——一起翻看——决定继续故事——拍摄新照片 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①开始工作：get to work/start working ②深呼吸：take a deep breath/inhale deeply ③放置：set aside/put aside/place aside 情绪类 ①生气：anger/rage ②惊讶地：in surprise/in amazement 【点睛】【高分句型 1】She blinked in surprise, then smiled softly as she ran her fingers over the worn cover.（运用了 as引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型 2】When they reached the last page, Jake grinned.（运用了 when引导的时间状语 从句） 听力文本 1. 【原文】W: So you want to pursue a career in economics.

Text 10 【原文】Hi everyone. Some important information about the three college trips before the end of June. Firstly, we’re going to Birmingham to see the International Athletics Championships. That’s the only trip we’ve planned during March, because I know that April is such a busy time for students. We’re going on the fifteen.

A hundred and forty different national teams will take part, which means you’ll see five hundred and twenty world-class sportsmen and women there, and you’ll be amongst thousands of other fans. The stadium seats seventeen thousand. We’ll be leaving here early. The plane tickets are too expensive, so we’ve decided to go by train this time and not hire a coach, because we got delayed 5 in traffic jams last time. As for our trip, I don’t have the final details of journey times yet, but I will by this afternoon. I think I’ll write an information sheet with answers to all your questions on it.

The good news is that not remembering where you put your keys is generally not a sign of dementia( )And on the contrary,being able to remember a long list of restaurant specials isn't necessarily a sign of extraordinary mental ability,either.Memory is far more complicated than the dining out experience could ever 高二英语考试(120分钟卷) 第4页共10页 show.While most of us are terrified about developing dementia,fewer than 10%of adults aged 65 and older w at wind up wit池dementia such as Alzheimer's(阿尔茨海默症. "Some memory loss is normal as people age."says Joel Salinas,a behavioral neurologist."It's not the kina of decline that interferes with the ability to live your life."And,he adds,"There are areas that actually improve with age.Vocabulary is one." Jessica Zwerling,a director of the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer's Disease,compares the effect of aging on memory to kind of like getting traffic on the brain."It may take longer to find a word;it may come to you later.The speed of processing can go down,but your hippocampus,the part of the brain most associated with memory,should be functioning."And the memories themselves are stored in various sections of the cerebral cortex,the outer layer of the brain."Memory is all these different brain networks working in concert with each other,"says Dr.Salinas. 28.Why does the author mention the dining out experience in the first paragraph?

D Alongside the crisps in the snack aisle,supermarkets are now stacking shelves with roasted chickpeas,cheese bites,and beef jerky.An array of high-protein altematives is appearing alongside low-fat and low-sugar foods. Dairy sections are packed with hard-to-pronounce fare such as skyr and kefir.High-protein diets have become mainstream. On social media,food and fitness influencers recommend protein.Celebrities have made it trendy to look strong,rather than skinny.A trend is close to an obsession.Google searches for"high-protein diet"reached their highest point ever in January.Some 64%of Americans want to increase the amount of protein they eat.In Britain, Ocado,an online supermarket,figures over 40%of consumers have increased their protein intake over the past year.So what explains the constant appetite? Gym enthusiasts have been wolfing down protein for decades.More recently the less strong have also 高二英语考试(120分钟卷) 第5页共10页 realized that protein can help them build muscle while feeling fuller for longer.Juergen Esser at Danone,a French dairy giant,says hunger for protein first took off among youngsters who want to look muscular.It soon spread to older people eager to stay strong and healthy.The pandemic got people worrying about their health and increased demand. High-protein products are helping firms expand.Revenues at Danone increased by 4.3%in 2024,driven by high-protein yogurts and drinks.The question is whether the trend has gone too far.The World Health Organization recommends 0.83 grams a day per kilogram of body weight.By that measure,the average American or Briton consumes too much. For food firms already,struggling to meet multiple requirements,it is yet another challenge.Consumers do not only want more protein and less ultra-processing,but also more plant-based food and anything good for the gut().The Curators,a British snackmaker,has a balancing act to perform.When the firm began making soya and lentil chips,it settled on ten grams of protein per bag.Recipes with more were not as tasty.And as food crazes come and go,a pleasant flavour may be the most enduring requirement of all. 32.What can we learn about high-protein diets?

Do you check your text messages before sending?36 If not,you might prefer getting things done fast,even if they're not perfect. This book argues that it's important to write carefully,even for quick messages.Todd Rogers and Jessica 高二英语考试(120分钟卷) 第6页共10页 Lasky Fink,from Harvard,wrote"Writing For Busy Readers".It's smartly named because everyone's busy today. People get lots of messages every day,from emails to texts.37 Deciding what to read,skim,or ignore happens many times a day for almost everyone. The authors share good writing tips,like cutting unnecessary words and using simple words everyone knows. They say it's important to keep sentences simple.They tested the idea that less is more.For example,they sent an email to thousands of school-board members asking them to take a survey.They made the email shorter,from 127 to 49 words,and got double the responses (from 2.7%to 4.8%).38 The same is true for text messages.In another test,they sent a short message asking parents to take a survey. It got more responses than a longer,more sympathetic one.Sometimes,being short and clear works better than being kind but ignored.It's not just what you say,but how quickly you say it that matters. It's not just about word count.39 Reducing the number of options has the same effect.Short, active sentences with common words are best. From posts to online revicws,following these rules gets more likes and shares.Serious writers should pay attention too.A study found that companies using long sentences and complicated words were seen as less moral and trustworthy. 40 It might be tempting to send messages quickly and hope for the best.But taking time to write for your readers has benefits.If you send a rushed message that readers ignore,it's like you didn't send it at all. A.If everyone is a busy reader,everyone is a busy writer too. B.They can also get puzzled by social media platforms. C.If you do,you probably like making even the simplest messages perfect. D.They found that longer messages make people think the task will take longer. E.Keeping messages to one idea,or as few as possible,helps make sure they're read,remembered,and acted on. F.Your goal is to convey enough passion that your readers think the issue in your message is worth caring about. G.Explaining the thinking behind your messages will allow readers to see that you know what you're talking about. 第三部分语言运用供两节，满分30分) 第一节供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。 Ding dong!I looked up from the couch.Who in the world could that be?My body was troubled with illness, so I'd 41myself away.Friends telephoned,texted,emailed,and sent cards.I didn't42, thinking that I had nothing to offer anyone in the miserable condition I was in.

"Jake!Come back!I need your help with the storage room." "But Mom,I told Ryan I'd meet him at the park,"Jake protested. "We talked about this.Grandma is moving in this weekend,so we need to clean out the storage room to make space for her.” "Grandma?"Jake thought,the word feeling almost foreign on his tongue.He didn't even know her that well -it had been years since she last visited,and now she was moving in?He couldn't believe he had to give up his Saturday for someone he barely knew.With complaints and sighs,he kicked at the floor as he trudged down the hallway,dragging his feet like they weighed a ton Stepping into the storage room,his nose wrinkled in disgust.The place was a disaster.Spiderwebs drooped from every comer,and dust swirled in the sunlight like dirty smoke.Boxes teetered in unstable stacks,a rolled-up carpet with wom edges lay half-spilled across the floor,and forgotten junk crowded every inch.Jake let out a long. dramatic sigh-this job was going to take forever. Just as he was about to give up and sneak a text to Ryan,a faded blue album tucked at the bottom of the suitcase caught his eye.Faint words were etched on its leather cover:Stories with Jake (To Be Continued..).He pulled it out and flipped it openthe pages were filled with moments of him and his grandmother.On the very first page was a photo-On the very first page was a photo:his grandmother,much younger then,cradling a tiny 高二英语考试(120分钟卷) 第9页共10页 baby wrapped in a soft blanket.At the bottom of the photo he saw some words in careful handwriting:"Glad to meet you,baby Jake." 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。 As he flipped through more photos,his eyes began to mist.
