It’s also the perfect time to promote sustainable(可持续性的) tourism practices and companies that encourage the protection of elephants. Elephants are the largest land animals in the world, which has made them a main target for illegal hunters. In fact, the ivory(象牙) trade alone is thought to be worth $23 billion yearly.

Promote elephant protection and awareness: Spread awareness of global protection efforts to save elephants and promote further action.

She came on as a substitute (替补) for NJ/NY Gotham FC in the remaining minutes of the club’s 1-1 tie with Seattle Reign on March 15, which was opening match day for the 2025 NWSL season. The former record was set by Olivia Moultrie, who debuted (首次出场) for the Portland Thorns at age 15 in 2021. Whitham is from Granite Bay, California, and she began playing soccer at an early age with support from her parents. Her father, who was the youngest member of a US Olympic ski team at age 15, has guided her training, while her mother home-schools her to allow more flexibility for soccer. Whitham has played for the Slammers FC and the semi-pro team Santa Clarita Blue Heat, and she is a member of the Under-15 youth national team. Gotham FC signed Whitham to a four-year contract (合同) last year when she was 13. The contract became effective in January 2025, making Whitham the youngest player on a NWSL team roster. She is also the youngest athlete in any sport to sign a name, image, and likeness contract with Nike. Because Whitham is under 18, she follows special regulations set by the league, which are meant to protect her while she plays professionally. She has regular medical examinations, for example, and she also has her own locker room. It’s near the main locker room that her teammates use, allowing her to join in on team spirit. As the season progresses, Whitham will continue training with the team and hopes to earn more playing time. She said she was proud of her historic debut, which she called “a dream come true.” “Standing on the sideline and waiting to get on the field was pretty exciting,” she said. “I wanted to be out there and was ready.” 4. What can we know about McKenna Whitham’s parents? A. Her mother trains her for soccer. B. Her father is strict with her soccer training. C. Her father was a member of a US Olympic soccer team. D. Her mother teaches her at home for soccer training convenience. 5. What does the underlined word “roster” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. List. B. Schedule. C. Contract. D. Club. 6. How does McKenna Whitham feel about her debut? A. She is proud and excited. B. She is nervous and unsure. C. She is dissatisfied with her debut. D. She is worried about the challenges ahead. 7. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Future of Women’s Soccer B. Special Regulations for Young Athletes C. A Young Soccer Talent’s Historic Debut D. The Importance of Family Support in Sports C Off the coast of Donegal lies Owey Island, a car-free place that was last inhabited (居住) full-time in the 1970s. Today, it’s being revived by locals and adventurous travelers seeking a simpler life. Accessible only by private boat, the island has no electricity or running water, offering a sharp contrast to modern living. In its golden age, Owey was home to around 100 residents and 30 families. However, the attraction of the mainland’s conveniences caused it to be deserted in 1977. The island remained inactive for over 25 years. It was not until pioneering locals like Paul Cowan decided to restore it that things began to change. Paul Cowan spent his teenage years there. Cowan and his family had moved to Owey in the 1970s to avoid the political and social unrest in Belfast. In the early 2000s, he and his brother returned to fix up their family home and build new houses. Their efforts inspired other descendants of the island to restore the island to its former honor. Now, around 20 homes stand, with a seasonal community of 20-30 people living there during warmer months. The island’s isolation (隔绝) attracts those seeking a break from modern life. Visitors can stay at the Owey Island Cottage Hostel or camp nearby. The hostel, once the last inhabited house, keeps much of its original furniture and offers basic devices (设施) like a gas stove and toilet. Locals like Frankie Gallagher, who divides his time between Owey and the mainland, accept a simpler lifestyle, using gas, solar power, and rainwater tanks. This lifestyle means beautiful sunsets and starry nights, free from light pollution. Owey’s rough landscape offers activities like travelling through sea caves, rock climbing, and hill walking. The island’s southern end is grassy and rich, with a small harbor, while the northern end is rocky and stony. The island also has a lake with grand sea views, a perfect spot for a refreshing swim. 8. What kind of life is described in Paragraph 1? A. Basic and isolated. B. Busy and stressful. C. Modern and convenient. D. Technologically advanced. 9. Why did Cowan and his family relocate to Owey in the 1970s? A To enjoy the beautiful views. B. To escape the troubles in Belfast. C. To develop tourism on the island. D. To restore the island’s former glory. 10. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The history of Owey Island. B. The lifestyle of the island’s residents. C. The efforts to restore the island’s homes. D. The activities and landscape of Owey Island. 11. Where is this text most likely from? A. A science journal. B. A travel magazine. C. A historical textbook. D. A government report. D If you live near a body of water in the northern place, you likely have heard of your local polar bear club, usually made up of a group of strong swimmers who take part in cold water swimming. Submerging (浸入) in cold water dates back to ancient civilizations, with the first documented evidence appearing in an Egyptian text in 3,000 BC. Fast forward to modern times, a group of swimmers founded the first cold water swimming organization in the U.S. in 1903. Today, the Coney Island Polar Bear Club still holds weekly ocean swims from November to April. Cold-water swimmers say that swimming in icy water is good for you. It helps reduce muscle pain, improves sleep, and increases your energy. But what does the evidence say? A growing body of research proves that jumping into cold water is good for you, especially for your feeling and how well your brain works. In a study published this year in the journal Physiology & Behavior, 13 healthy subjects submerged themselves in 10-degree Celsius water for 10 minutes, three times per week. Researchers measured participants’ (参与者) mental performance, self-reported well-being, sleep quality and worry. They found participants’ thinking processing speed and mental flexibility improved over the four weeks of the study. Participants said they had less trouble sleeping and felt less worried. Two earlier studies back up these findings. In the first, participants reported a significant decrease in negative emotions like tension, anger, depression, tiredness and confusion after a 20-minute swim in cold ocean water. In the second study, participants who submerged in a cold bath for five minutes reported feeling more active, attentive, proud and inspired. What’s going on here? Researchers don’t exactly know. However, it’s important to know that cold-water swimming can be risky. It can lead to problems such as getting too cold, breathing too quickly, and having muscle cramps (痉挛). It’s important never to swim in a body of open water alone, and to check with your doctor first if you have any ongoing health conditions. 12. What is the main activity of the local polar bear club? A. Watching polar bears. B. Swimming in cold water. C. Organizing sports events. D. Protecting the local environment. 13. What can be inferred about the benefits of cold-water swimming? A. It is mainly beneficial to athletes. B. It helps improve school achievement. C. It has little significant impact on mental health. D. It can improve your feeling and thinking ability. 14. What is the function of Paragraph 4? A. To compare the findings of different studies. B. To explain the research methods used in the studies. C. To give more evidence for cold-water swimming benefits. D. To introduce a new topic unrelated to cold-water swimming. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards cold-water swimming? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Negative. 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。 If your goal is to fully understand and connect with the other person, listening in an engaged(投入的) way will often come naturally. If it doesn’t, try the following tips. ·Focus fully on the speaker. ____16____To notice the small details and important body language in a conversation, you need to pay close attention to what’s happening right now. If you find it hard to concentrate on some speaker, try repeating their words over in your head-it’ll help you stay focused. ·____17____As strange as it sounds, the left side of the brain contains the primary processing centers for both speech understanding and emotions. Since the left side of the brain is connected to the right side of the body, favoring your right ear can help you better detect the emotional details of what someone is saying. ·Avoid interrupting or trying to redirect the conversation to your concerns. By saying something like, “If you think that’s bad, let me tell you what happened to me.” ____18____You can’t concentrate on what someone’s saying if you’re forming what you’re going to say next.

If there seems to be a disconnect, reflect what has been said by paraphrasing. “What I’m hearing is,” or “Sounds like you are saying,” are great ways to reflect back. ____20____ Instead, express what the speaker’s words mean to you. A. Favor your right ear. B. Pay attention to speech understanding. C. Don’t simply repeat what the speaker has said. D. Listening is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk. E. The ability to communicate is a person’s most important skill. F. You can’t listen carefully if you’re always checking your phone. G.

She’d lived in this neighborhood all her life and now, in her early twenties, was gaining experience in her job as a tree doctor. “No amount of tree-hugging will save this one.” Aiden’s voice broke into her thoughts. “The roots are dead, and the branches are decaying(腐烂). Nothing for it-it’ll have to come down,” Aiden said. “There must be another way,” Sophie responded, trying to sound confident. Aiden shook his head. Sophie said, “At least let me take a closer look at the top branches. The leaves up there might be healthier.” Aiden sighed. “OK, but if the disease has spread too far...” His words faded away. “Well, you know the result.” Sophie nodded, though she felt sad. She wanted to preserve trees, not destroy them. Fortunately, her job wasn’t always about cutting trees down. Sometimes, it was about giving them a new chance to live, and this tree was especially important to her. It had been the meeting place in the park for her and her friends during school holidays, providing the shelter they needed when the days were hot. With these thoughts in mind, Sophie put on her climbing tools and prepared to climb. As she climbed the tree, she carefully checked each branch and leaf, searching for any sign of hope. But the closer she looked, the more she realized Aiden was right-the disease had indeed spread far and wide. Her heart sank as she accepted the truth. When Sophie finally climbed down, Aiden was waiting for her with a look of pity. “I’m sorry, Sophie,” he said softly, as if sensing her emotional connection to the tree. “But you know what we have to do.” Sophie nodded, her eyes welling up with tears. She took a deep breath to compose herself and then suggested, “Let’s plant a new tree in its place, to honor its memory. And we could put up a sign with a message on it.” 注意： 1.续写词数应150个左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Aiden was surprised by her idea but quickly nodded in agreement. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Sophie and Aiden worked together to plant the young tree. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024-2025学年第二学期江淮协作区期末联合监测 高一英语 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，将条形码准确粘贴在考生信息条形码粘贴区。 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂;非选择题必须使用0.5毫米黑色字迹签字笔书写，字体工整、笔迹清晰。 3.请按照题号顺序在答题卡各题目的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效;在草稿纸、试卷上答题无效。 4.作图可先使用铅笔画出，确定后必须用黑色字迹的签字笔描黑。 5.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠，不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂改液、修正带、刮纸刀。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

She came on as a substitute (替补) for NJ/NY Gotham FC in the remaining minutes of the club’s 1-1 tie with Seattle Reign on March 15, which was opening match day for the 2025 NWSL season. The former record was set by Olivia Moultrie, who debuted (首次出场) for the Portland Thorns at age 15 in 2021. Whitham is from Granite Bay, California, and she began playing soccer at an early age with support from her parents. Her father, who was the youngest member of a US Olympic ski team at age 15, has guided her training, while her mother home-schools her to allow more flexibility for soccer. Whitham has played for the Slammers FC and the semi-pro team Santa Clarita Blue Heat, and she is a member of the Under-15 youth national team. Gotham FC signed Whitham to a four-year contract (合同) last year when she was 13. The contract became effective in January 2025, making Whitham the youngest player on a NWSL team roster. She is also the youngest athlete in any sport to sign a name, image, and likeness contract with Nike. Because Whitham is under 18, she follows special regulations set by the league, which are meant to protect her while she plays professionally. She has regular medical examinations, for example, and she also has her own locker room. It’s near the main locker room that her teammates use, allowing her to join in on team spirit. As the season progresses, Whitham will continue training with the team and hopes to earn more playing time. She said she was proud of her historic debut, which she called “a dream come true.” “Standing on the sideline and waiting to get on the field was pretty exciting,” she said. “I wanted to be out there and was ready.” 4. What can we know about McKenna Whitham’s parents? A. Her mother trains her for soccer. B. Her father is strict with her soccer training. C. Her father was a member of a US Olympic soccer team. D.

Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Future of Women’s Soccer B. Special Regulations for Young Athletes C. A Young Soccer Talent’s Historic Debut D. The Importance of Family Support in Sports 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了麦肯纳·惠特姆的成长经历、足球生涯以及她在园家女子足球联赛中的创纪录表现。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Her father, who was the youngest member of a US Olympic ski team at age 15, has guided her training, while her mother home-schools her to allow more flexibility for soccer. (她的父亲在15岁时是美国奥运会滑雪队中最年轻的成员，他一直在指导她的训练，而她的母亲则在家教育她，让她在足球方面有更大的灵活性)”可知，她母亲在家教她课程是为了让她有更多时间灵活安排，便于足球训练。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Gotham FC signed Whitham to a four-year contract (合同) last year when she was 13. The contract became effective in January 2025, making Whitham the youngest player on a NWSL team roster. (哥谭足球俱乐部去年在她13岁时就与她签下了一份为期四年的合同。该合同于2025年1月生效，使惠特姆成为NWSL球队roster上最年轻的球员)”可知，哥谭足球俱乐部与惠特姆签订合同，说明签约后她成为NWSL球队名单中最年轻的球员，所以划线单词roster指的是NWSL球队的球员名单，与List意思相近。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“She said she was proud of her historic debut, which she called “a dream come true.” “Standing on the sideline and waiting to get on the field was pretty exciting,” she said. (她说她为自己历史性的首次亮相感到自豪，她称之为‘梦想成真’。‘站在边线上等待上场非常令人兴奋，’她说)”可知，惠特姆称她的首次亮相是“梦想成真”，并且她表示站在场边等待上场时感到非常兴奋，这表明她对自己的首秀感到自豪和兴奋。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“At age 14, McKenna “Mak” Whitham has become the youngest player to appear in a National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) match. (14岁的麦肯纳·‘马克’·惠特姆成为参加美国国家女子足球联赛（NWSL）比赛的最年轻球员)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了14岁的麦肯纳·惠特姆在2025赛季首场比赛中替补出场，成为NWSL历史上最年轻的出场球员，并介绍她的足球经历和感受。因此，C选项“一位年轻足球天才的历史性首秀”最适合作为文章标题。故选C。 C Off the coast of Donegal lies Owey Island, a car-free place that was last inhabited (居住) full-time in the 1970s. Today, it’s being revived by locals and adventurous travelers seeking a simpler life. Accessible only by private boat, the island has no electricity or running water, offering a sharp contrast to modern living. In its golden age, Owey was home to around 100 residents and 30 families. However, the attraction of the mainland’s conveniences caused it to be deserted in 1977. The island remained inactive for over 25 years. It was not until pioneering locals like Paul Cowan decided to restore it that things began to change. Paul Cowan spent his teenage years there. Cowan and his family had moved to Owey in the 1970s to avoid the political and social unrest in Belfast. In the early 2000s, he and his brother returned to fix up their family home and build new houses. Their efforts inspired other descendants of the island to restore the island to its former honor. Now, around 20 homes stand, with a seasonal community of 20-30 people living there during warmer months. The island’s isolation (隔绝) attracts those seeking a break from modern life. Visitors can stay at the Owey Island Cottage Hostel or camp nearby. The hostel, once the last inhabited house, keeps much of its original furniture and offers basic devices (设施) like a gas stove and toilet. Locals like Frankie Gallagher, who divides his time between Owey and the mainland, accept a simpler lifestyle, using gas, solar power, and rainwater tanks. This lifestyle means beautiful sunsets and starry nights, free from light pollution. Owey’s rough landscape offers activities like travelling through sea caves, rock climbing, and hill walking. The island’s southern end is grassy and rich, with a small harbor, while the northern end is rocky and stony. The island also has a lake with grand sea views, a perfect spot for a refreshing swim. 8. What kind of life is described in Paragraph 1? A. Basic and isolated. B. Busy and stressful. C. Modern and convenient. D. Technologically advanced. 9. Why did Cowan and his family relocate to Owey in the 1970s? A. To enjoy the beautiful views. B. To escape the troubles in Belfast. C. To develop tourism on the island. D. To restore the island’s former glory. 10. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The history of Owey Island. B. The lifestyle of the island’s residents. C. The efforts to restore the island’s homes. D. The activities and landscape of Owey Island. 11. Where is this text most likely from? A. A science journal. B. A travel magazine. C. A historical textbook. D. A government report. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了爱尔兰多尼戈尔海岸附近的奥维岛如何从荒废状态被恢复生机，成为追求简约生活者和冒险旅行者的热门目的地。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Accessible only by private boat, the island has no electricity or running water, offering a sharp contrast to modern living.(该岛只能乘坐私人船只抵达，没有电和自来水，与现代生活形成鲜明对比。)”可知，第一段描述的是一种基础且与世隔绝的生活。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Cowan and his family had moved to Owey in the 1970s to avoid the political and social unrest in Belfast.(考恩和他的家人在20世纪70年代搬到奥维岛，以躲避贝尔法斯特的政治和社会动荡。)”可知，考恩和他的家人在20世纪70年代搬到奥维岛是为了躲避贝尔法斯特的麻烦。故选B。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Owey’s rough landscape offers activities like travelling through sea caves, rock climbing, and hill walking. The island’s southern end is grassy and rich, with a small harbor, while the northern end is rocky and stony. The island also has a lake with grand sea views, a perfect spot for a refreshing swim.(奥维岛地势崎岖，为游客提供了诸如穿越海蚀洞、攀岩和徒步爬山等活动。该岛南端草木繁茂、土地肥沃，还有一个小港口；而北端则布满岩石、碎石嶙峋。岛上还有一个湖泊，在此可饱览壮阔的海景，是畅快游泳的绝佳之地。)”可知，最后一段主要介绍了奥维岛的活动和景观。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Off the coast of Donegal lies Owey Island, a car-free place that was last inhabited (居住) full-time in the 1970s. Today, it’s being revived by locals and adventurous travelers seeking a simpler life.(多尼戈尔海岸外是奥维岛，这是一个上世纪70年代以来就无人全年居住的没有汽车的地方。如今，它正被当地人和寻求简单生活的冒险旅行者所复兴。)”可知，文章主要介绍了奥维岛的恢复生机以及成为热门旅游目的地的情况，由此可推知，文章最有可能出自一本旅游杂志。故选B。 D If you live near a body of water in the northern place, you likely have heard of your local polar bear club, usually made up of a group of strong swimmers who take part in cold water swimming. Submerging (浸入) in cold water dates back to ancient civilizations, with the first documented evidence appearing in an Egyptian text in 3,000 BC. Fast forward to modern times, a group of swimmers founded the first cold water swimming organization in the U.S. in 1903. Today, the Coney Island Polar Bear Club still holds weekly ocean swims from November to April. Cold-water swimmers say that swimming in icy water is good for you. It helps reduce muscle pain, improves sleep, and increases your energy. But what does the evidence say? A growing body of research proves that jumping into cold water is good for you, especially for your feeling and how well your brain works. In a study published this year in the journal Physiology & Behavior, 13 healthy subjects submerged themselves in 10-degree Celsius water for 10 minutes, three times per week. Researchers measured participants’ (参与者) mental performance, self-reported well-being, sleep quality and worry. They found participants’ thinking processing speed and mental flexibility improved over the four weeks of the study. Participants said they had less trouble sleeping and felt less worried. Two earlier studies back up these findings. In the first, participants reported a significant decrease in negative emotions like tension, anger, depression, tiredness and confusion after a 20-minute swim in cold ocean water. In the second study, participants who submerged in a cold bath for five minutes reported feeling more active, attentive, proud and inspired. What’s going on here? Researchers don’t exactly know. However, it’s important to know that cold-water swimming can be risky. It can lead to problems such as getting too cold, breathing too quickly, and having muscle cramps (痉挛). It’s important never to swim in a body of open water alone, and to check with your doctor first if you have any ongoing health conditions. 12. What is the main activity of the local polar bear club? A. Watching polar bears. B. Swimming in cold water. C. Organizing sports events. D. Protecting the local environment. 13. What can be inferred about the benefits of cold-water swimming? A. It is mainly beneficial to athletes. B. It helps improve school achievement. C. It has little significant impact on mental health. D. It can improve your feeling and thinking ability. 14. What is the function of Paragraph 4? A. To compare the findings of different studies. B. To explain the research methods used in the studies. C. To give more evidence for cold-water swimming benefits. D. To introduce a new topic unrelated to cold-water swimming. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards cold-water swimming? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Negative. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了冷水游泳的历史、好处、相关研究结果以及潜在风险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“If you live near a body of water in the northern place, you likely have heard of your local polar bear club, usually made up of a group of strong swimmers who take part in cold water swimming. (如果你住在北方的水域附近，你可能听说过当地的北极熊俱乐部，通常由一群强壮的游泳者组成，他们参加冷水游泳。)”可知，当地北极熊俱乐部的主要活动是冷水游泳。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“They found participants’ thinking processing speed and mental flexibility improved over the four weeks of the study. Participants said they had less trouble sleeping and felt less worried.(他们发现，在为期四周的研究中，参与者的思维处理速度和思维灵活性都有所提高。参与者表示，他们的睡眠问题减少了，焦虑感也减少了。)”可以推知，冷水游泳可以改善你的心情和思维能力。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。第四段“Two earlier studies back up these findings. In the first, participants reported a significant decrease in negative emotions like tension, anger, depression, tiredness and confusion after a 20-minute swim in cold ocean water. In the second study, participants who submerged in a cold bath for five minutes reported feeling more active, attentive, proud and inspired.(早期的两项研究支持了这些发现。在第一个实验中，参与者报告说，在冰冷的海水中游泳20分钟后，紧张、愤怒、抑郁、疲劳和困惑等负面情绪显著减少。在第二项研究中，在冷水浴中浸泡五分钟的参与者报告说，他们感觉更活跃、更专注、更自豪、更有灵感。)”提到了两个早期的研究，这两个研究都支持了冷水游泳的好处，因此该段的功能是为冷水游泳的益处提供更多证据。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Two earlier studies back up these findings.

If it doesn’t, try the following tips. ·Focus fully on the speaker. ____16____To notice the small details and important body language in a conversation, you need to pay close attention to what’s happening right now. If you find it hard to concentrate on some speaker, try repeating their words over in your head-it’ll help you stay focused. ·____17____As strange as it sounds, the left side of the brain contains the primary processing centers for both speech understanding and emotions. Since the left side of the brain is connected to the right side of the body, favoring your right ear can help you better detect the emotional details of what someone is saying. ·Avoid interrupting or trying to redirect the conversation to your concerns. By saying something like, “If you think that’s bad, let me tell you what happened to me.” ____18____You can’t concentrate on what someone’s saying if you’re forming what you’re going to say next. Often, the speaker can read your facial expressions and know that your mind’s elsewhere. ·Show your interest in what’s being said. Nod occasionally, smile at the person, and make sure your body position is open and inviting. ____19____ ·Provide feedback(反馈). If there seems to be a disconnect, reflect what has been said by paraphrasing. “What I’m hearing is,” or “Sounds like you are saying,” are great ways to reflect back. ____20____ Instead, express what the speaker’s words mean to you. A. Favor your right ear. B. Pay attention to speech understanding. C Don’t simply repeat what the speaker has said. D. Listening is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk. E. The ability to communicate is a person’s most important skill. F. You can’t listen carefully if you’re always checking your phone. G. Encourage the speaker to continue with small words like “yes” or “uh huh.” 【答案】16. F 17. A 18. D 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何通过专注倾听、使用右耳捕捉情感细节、避免打断对方、展示兴趣以及提供反馈等技巧，来更好地理解和与他人建立连接。 【16题详解】 该段主题是“Fully focus on the speaker.(完全专注于说话者。)”F选项“You can’t listen carefully if you’re always checking your phone.( 如果你总是查看手机，你就不能认真倾听。)”举例说明了影响专注倾听的行为，与主题相符，强调要排除干扰专注倾听。故选F项。 17题详解】 根据后文“Since the left - side of the brain is connected to the right side of the body, favoring your right ear can help you better detect the emotional details of what someone is saying.(因为大脑的左侧与身体的右侧相连，偏爱右耳可以帮助你更好地察觉某人说话中的情感细节。)”可知，这一段主要讲的是偏爱右耳能帮助更好地察觉说话者话语中的情感细节。A选项 “Favor your right ear.(偏爱你的右耳。)” 能很好地概括这一段的内容，适合作为该段小标题。故选A项。 【18题详解】 该段主题是“Avoid interrupting or trying to redirect the conversation to your concerns.( 避免打断或试图将对话引向你关心的事情。)”D选项“Listening is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk.( 倾听不同于等待轮到你说话，)”进一步解释了不要只想着自己要说什么而打断别人，符合语境。故选D项。 【19题详解】 该段主题是“Show your interest in what’s being said.(对正在说的内容表现出兴趣。)”G选项“Encourage the speaker to continue with small words like “yes” or “uh huh.”(用像“是的” 或“嗯嗯”这样的小词鼓励说话者继续说下去。)”是表现兴趣的具体做法，与主题一致。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Instead, express what the speaker’s words mean to you.( 相反，表达说话者的话对你意味着什么。)”说明前面应该是说不要做什么。C选项“Don’t simply repeat what the speaker has said.( 不要简单地重复说话者说过的话。)”与之形成对比，符合逻辑。故选C项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My husband and I recently visited a new Italian restaurant that had earned top reviews.

To buy 38. are arranged 39. with 40. an 41. tidying 42. which 43. actually 44. have been 45. employment 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了厦门的三家地铁站内设有“幸运星慈善物品转运站”，这些无人值守的小店主要售卖二手物品，顾客通过扫码支付购买。这些店销由厦门星宝贝儿童智力开发中心运营，为自闭症成年人提供就业机会，帮助他们融入社会。 【36题详解】 考查名词复数形式。句意：他们的门从不关闭，他们欢迎任何路过的人来寻找书籍、玩具和其他物品。根据前文的“books，toys，and other...”，这里需要用名词复数形式来表示“其他物品”。故填items。 【37题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：买东西时，顾客只需查一下价格，扫一扫码。根据句意可知，这里表示“为了买东西”，用动词不定式作目的状语。故填To buy。 【38题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：虽然大多数产品都是二手的，但它们摆放得很好，形状也很好。句子主语“they”指代“products”，与“arrange”之间是被动关系，且描述的是客观事实，因此需要用一般现在时的被动语态“are arranged”。故填are arranged。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：这些商店由厦门兴宝贝儿童智力发展中心经营，为患有自闭症的成年人提供就业机会。分析句子可知，此处应为“adults with autism”表示“患有自闭症的成年人”，介词“with”有“具有，带有”的意思。故填with。 【40题详解】 考查冠词。句意：早上，一名员工打扫商店，整理货架。“employee”是可数名词单数，且是以元音音素开头，“an”用于元音音素开头的单词前，此处表示泛指“一名”，所以填冠词“an”。故填an。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：早上，一名员工打扫商店，整理货架。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作状语，tidy和逻辑主语an employee为主动关系，所以为现在分词形式。故填tidying。 【42题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：第一家店于去年4月开业，现在赚的钱刚刚够支付成本。分析句子可知，设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是“The first shop”，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词“which”引导。故填which。 【43题详解】 考查副词。句意：该中心和店铺的创始人Luo Liying解释说，尽管看起来很简单，但这个项目实际上花了很多年才走到今天。这里需要一个副词修饰动词“took”，“actual”的副词形式是“actually”。故填actually。 【44题详解】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：有些孩子从6、7岁起就和我们在一起了。根据“since they were...”可知，强调从过去持续至今的状态，用现在完成时。主语“children”为复数，所以为动词复数形式。故填have been。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：所以我急于帮助他们找到工作。“find” 是动词，后面接名词作宾语，“employ” 的名词形式是“employment”。故填employment。 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。你校本月启动了“校园菜园计划”(Campus Garden Project)，所有班级需轮流参与蔬菜种植。你的加拿大笔友Peter来信询问此事。请你用英文回信，内容包括： 1.描述该计划带来的校园变化； 2.谈谈你的收获与挑战； 3.询问对方学校的特色实践活动。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80个左右； 2.可适当增加细节以使行文连贯； 3.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Peter, It’s exciting to share our new Campus Garden Project with you! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Can’t wait to hear about your school activities!

She’d lived in this neighborhood all her life and now, in her early twenties, was gaining experience in her job as a tree doctor. “No amount of tree-hugging will save this one.” Aiden’s voice broke into her thoughts. “The roots are dead, and the branches are decaying(腐烂). Nothing for it-it’ll have to come down,” Aiden said. “There must be another way” Sophie responded, trying to sound confident. Aiden shook his head. Sophie said, “At least let me take a closer look at the top branches. The leaves up there might be healthier.” Aiden sighed. “OK, but if the disease has spread too far...” His words faded away. “Well, you know the result.” Sophie nodded, though she felt sad. She wanted to preserve trees, not destroy them. Fortunately, her job wasn’t always about cutting trees down. Sometimes, it was about giving them a new chance to live, and this tree was especially important to her. It had been the meeting place in the park for her and her friends during school holidays, providing the shelter they needed when the days were hot. With these thoughts in mind, Sophie put on her climbing tools and prepared to climb. As she climbed the tree, she carefully checked each branch and leaf, searching for any sign of hope. But the closer she looked, the more she realized Aiden was right-the disease had indeed spread far and wide. Her heart sank as she accepted the truth. When Sophie finally climbed down, Aiden was waiting for her with a look of pity. “I’m sorry, Sophie,” he said softly, as if sensing her emotional connection to the tree. “But you know what we have to do.” Sophie nodded, her eyes welling up with tears. She took a deep breath to compose herself and then suggested, “Let’s plant a new tree in its place, to honor its memory. And we could put up a sign with a message on it.” 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。 Aiden was surprised by her idea but quickly nodded in agreement. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Sophie and Aiden worked together to plant the young tree. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Aiden was surprised by her idea but quickly nodded in agreement. “That’s a great idea Sophie. We can plant a young horse chestnut tree right here and give it a fresh start.” Sophie felt a sign of hope. They decided to plant the new tree the next day. After work, Sophie went to the local plant store and picked out a young tree. She also wrote a heartfelt message for the sign: “In memory of the old horse chestnut tree, the new tree is planted to honor its legacy and bring joy to future generations.” The next morning, Sophie and Aiden worked together to plant the young tree. They carefully dug a hole, placed the young tree in it, and filled it with soil. And then they watered it. As they stood back to admire their work, Sophie felt a sense of peace wash over her. She knew that while the old tree was gone, its spirit lived on in the new one, and in the hearts of all who had known and loved it. Aiden placed a comforting arm around her shoulder, and together, they walked away, leaving the new tree to grow in the park. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了年轻的树医Sophie和同事Aiden面对一棵对Sophie有特殊意义的濒死马栗树并对其进行拯救做出的努力，拯救未果，在原处种新树的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Aiden对她的想法感到惊讶，但很快点头表示同意。”可知，第一段可描写Aiden的态度转变和两人准备种树的工作并写留言牌的故事。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，Sophie 和Aiden一起种下了那棵小树。”可知，第二段可描写种树的具体过程以及新树的象征意义。 2.续写线索：Sophie悲伤，种新树——Aiden惊讶并同意——Sophie有了希望——选树苗，写标牌——种树——新树的象征意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①挑选：pick out/choose/select ②放置：place/put/lay ③生长：grow/develop/germinate 情绪类 ①一丝希望：a sign of hope/a ray of hope/be slightly hopeful ②平静感：a sense of peace/feel peaceful 【点睛】[高分句型1].
