Name Hadley Bolt Coral Thumbelina Photo Sex Female Male Female Female Size Medium Large Large Small Age 11 months 1 year 0 month 1 year 9 months 1 year 6 months Breed Mixed Breed Mixed Breed Mixed Breed Mixed Breed Weight 37 pounds 45 pounds 42 pounds 15 pounds More Info. Hadley is a sweet and energetic pup that just needs a little time to warm up. She can be nervous when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, her playful and fun personality shines through! Hadley loves to run around, play with toys and would like to stay with someone who can be patient and help her build confidence. She’d love to meet the whole family here at the shelter before you take her home. Meet Bolt! This spirited pup is lively and always ready for an adventure. Along with his playful nature, he’s also a total sweetheart who loves being around people and enjoys attention. Bolt would grow up healthy in an active home with older kids or adults only, as his enthusiasm might be a bit too much for younger children. He may also enjoy having a playful dog friend to have fun with. Coral would love to go home with someone that will take her on adventures to lakes, streams or the beach because she loves water! Playing with other dogs is another one of her favorite things to do, so bring any potential siblings over to say hello! Coral has suffered abuse before, so she needs a quiet home and a patient owner that could help her gain confidence around people. Thumbelina is a shy girl that would be grateful for an adopter who lets her slowly get used to her new home. Once she’s comfortable with you, she loves to snuggle up next to you or right on your lap. She’s met dogs and cats and seems to have done okay with both, so with a slow introduction she can learn to get along with some new furry friends. 1. Which family is the most suitable for Bolt? A.

B In March, Lencia Kebede made her Broadway debut (首演) as the first black actor to play Elphaba full-time in the musical Wicked. Premiered in 2003, the play tells the story of Elphaba and Glinda, the witches from the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and is one of the most popular musicals in the world. Kebede, aged 30, is the daughter of Ethiopian immigrants and grew up in Los Angeles, California. Her path to Broadway was unexpected. She studied diplomacy and politics at Occidental College and originally planned to work in law or public service. But during her senior year, Kebede decided to follow her passion for performing. After graduating from college in 2016, she pursued a career in musical theater. Kebede’s early roles included a national tour of the Broadway musical Rent and a show at Tokyo Disney. She then spent five years touring with Hamilton, playing one of the lead roles as Angelica Schuyler. Elphaba is known to be a challenging role that involves singing, acting, and being lifted into the air during the famous song “Defying Gravity”. When Kebede first sang that song for a Broadway audience, she was supported by more than 60 family members and friends in attendance. “I really felt like I was flying,” she said. In a social media post after her debut, Kebede reflected on her journey and the many times she sang “Defying Gravity” as a child. She shared a lyric from the song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz: “The dreams that you dare to dream do come true.” 4. Why is the musical Wicked special to Lencia Kebede? A. She’s a co-author of the original work. B. It’s the first play she has ever acted in. C. It’s the beginning of her acting career. D. She’s the first black full-time heroine. 5. What has made Kebede change her career? A. Her childhood interest. B. Her family background. C. Her passion for acting. D. Her major in the college. 6. Which challenge is specifically mentioned about playing Elphaba? A. Memorizing the lyrics of songs. B. Performing two-way dances. C. Appealing to different audiences. D. Singing and acting in the air. 7. Why did Kebede share the lyric in the post? A. To recall her early acting journey. B. To reflect on her academic life. C. To show belief in pursuing a dream. D. To criticize the theater industry. C To mark its 130th anniversary this year, the National Trust has announced plans to create around 2,500 square kilometres of “nature-rich” landscapes across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The National Trust is a charity that preserves nature and buildings. The organisation has set a target of 2035 for creating these natural areas. It’s an ambitious goal: in the past 10 years the Trust has done similar work, but only for around 250 square kilometres. If joined together, the landscapes it plans to create would cover an area bigger than the Lake District National Park. The charity’s focus will be restoring peatland (watery habitats containing a soil-like material called peat) and improving the quality of rivers. It aims to improve the health of enough soil to provide homes for one billion earthworms. The National Trust also aims to reconnect natural areas that have been broken into separate bits, such as a road cutting a forest in half. Known as habitat fragmentation, this is often caused by humans and harms animals by making it hard for them to feed and raise families. The new landscapes will help tackle climate change by protecting plants and peat. These both absorb carbon dioxide from the air. This is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, leading to rising temperatures and climate change. The plans are aimed at land already owned by the National Trust, as well as nearby areas and land that it plans to buy. Examples include linking an area of disused farmland in Merseyside, England, to a nearby area of forest. There are also plans to link two areas of protected land that are 10 miles apart in England’s Shropshire Hills. This should help breeding curlews. The charity aims to work with farmers and landowners to help them boost nature on their land. “We will ramp up our work to restore nature, both on our own land and beyond our boundaries,” said Hilary McGrady, director-general of the National Trust. 8. What does the National Trust aim to do for the next ten years? A. Protect all forests in the U.K. B. Increase the natural areas by tenfold. C. Enlarge the peatland by 10%. D. Expand Lake District National Park. 9. What harm does “habitat fragmentation” do? A. Separating natural areas into small parts. B. Threatening the survival of animals. C. Restricting human’s regular movement. D. Transforming forests into farmland. 10. What will the Trust do to create new landscapes? A. Connect smaller areas of land. B. Replant crops on disused farmland. C. Till the land in mountain areas. D. Link the roads that cut the forests. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The history of the National Trust. B. The benefits of natural landscapes. C. The Trust’s efforts to cut emissions. D. The Trust’s plans to restore nature. D Have you ever noticed how highway traffic often comes to a stop for no clear reason? Surprisingly, ants — tiny as they are — have mastered the art of avoiding such jams. Scientists are studying their strategies to help design smarter self-driving car systems. When roads get crowded, human drivers tend to brake suddenly, creating ripple effects that freeze traffic — like water turning to ice. Ants, however, keep moving smoothly even in extreme crowds. A study reveals their secret: They travel in small groups of 3-20, maintaining steady speeds and spacing without trying to overtake each other. Unlike ants, human drivers often act selfishly — changing lanes abruptly — which worsens traffic for everyone. Researchers suggest autonomous cars could mimic ants by sharing data to maintain safe distances and constant speeds, similar to how ants use chemical signals to coordinate (协调) without a central leader. Ant colonies also adapt flexibly. Their trails widen when busy, and they even crawl on tunnel ceilings to avoid congestion. Scientists propose that smart vehicles could use similar distributed decision-making to prevent bottlenecks. “Ants don’t need a commander; they cooperate through simple local interactions,” explains a biologist. Of course, ants have unique advantages. They can physically merge (挤在一起) when crowded and reshape their environment — skills beyond current technology. For now, drivers can adopt a simple ant-inspired tip: Keep enough distance from the car ahead. This small buffer helps absorb sudden stops and prevents “phantom jams” caused by braking waves. While future self-driving cars may fully copy ant-like coordination, today’s lesson is clear: Smooth traffic isn’t about rushing — it’s about working together. By prioritizing the group over individual speed, both humans and machines could finally outsmart the jam. 12. Why are scientists studying the ants’ traffic strategies? A. To analyze the reasons for traffic jam. B. To highlight ants’ anti-jam abilities. C. To improve self-driving car systems. D. To compare ants with human drivers. 13. What is the ants’ secret of avoiding traffic jams? A. Overtaking others if possible. B. Moving in well-coordinated teams. C. Slowing down when crowded. D. Following a central commander. 14. What does the underlined word “buffer” refer to in Paragraph 5? A. Distance. B. Technique. C. Creature. D. Lesson. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s the next? C. Where to go? D. Who to Blame? 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。 Insecurity is a feeling of uncertainty or self-doubt caused by internal or external factors.

Ahmed had been competing in cyclocross for three years, but this was Ryan’s first race. Ahmed tightened his gloves, determined to win this year’s championship. Ryan wished he could remember everything Ahmed had taught him. Ryan reviewed the last six months in his mind. From the moment Ahmed had first asked whether he would like to try the sport, Ryan had been excited. Ahmed helped Ryan find safety gear. He also explained the importance of practising and set up a plan for the two friends to practice together. Practising was hard. Ryan soon grew bored with working on the same skills over and over. He was ready to race! Ryan ended up skipping many of the practices. When Ryan did go to practices, he spent more time doing tricks with his bike than he did listening to Ahmed’s tips. “Now the real fun begins,” Ryan thought as he sat at the starting line. “You need to get serious,” Ahmed warned. “Cyclocross can be dangerous.” Bang! The starting gun went off. The boys rushed off. Ryan saw the first obstacle (障碍) ahead—a series of small hurdles. “Here I go!” Ryan shouted. He jumped off his bike and landed hard on his foot. He tried to pick it up by the wheels but dropped it. Finally, he got his bike off the ground. The bike was heavy, and his ankle hurt.

To give advice on petting dogs. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四只待领养的狗及其相关信息。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据Bolt部分的介绍“Bolt would grow up healthy in an active home with older kids or adults only, as his enthusiasm might be a bit too much for younger children. (Bolt在有年龄稍大的孩子或成年人的活跃家庭中会健康成长，因为他的热情可能会让年幼的孩子有些难以承受。)”可知，Bolt更适合一个充满活力的成年人家庭，而不是有小孩的家庭或安静的老年夫妇家庭。同时，文中提到“He may also enjoy having a playful dog friend to have fun with. (他也可能会喜欢有一个爱玩的狗朋友一起玩。)”，因此一个没有其他狗宠物的家庭也不是最合适的。由此可知，最适合Bolt的是一个充满活力的成年人家庭。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Coral部分的介绍“Coral has suffered abuse before, so she needs a quiet home and a patient owner that could help her gain confidence around people. (Coral以前受过虐待，所以她需要一个安静的家和一个有耐心的主人，帮助她在人们面前建立信心。)”可知，Coral有被虐待的历史。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“From big-eyed couch potatoes to long-eared hiking companions, the Humane Society of Charlotte (HSC) has all sorts of dogs awaiting their forever homes.

Premiered in 2003, the play tells the story of Elphaba and Glinda, the witches from the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and is one of the most popular musicals in the world. Kebede, aged 30, is the daughter of Ethiopian immigrants and grew up in Los Angeles, California. Her path to Broadway was unexpected. She studied diplomacy and politics at Occidental College and originally planned to work in law or public service. But during her senior year, Kebede decided to follow her passion for performing. After graduating from college in 2016, she pursued a career in musical theater. Kebede’s early roles included a national tour of the Broadway musical Rent and a show at Tokyo Disney. She then spent five years touring with Hamilton, playing one of the lead roles as Angelica Schuyler. Elphaba is known to be a challenging role that involves singing, acting, and being lifted into the air during the famous song “Defying Gravity”. When Kebede first sang that song for a Broadway audience, she was supported by more than 60 family members and friends in attendance. “I really felt like I was flying,” she said. In a social media post after her debut, Kebede reflected on her journey and the many times she sang “Defying Gravity” as a child. She shared a lyric from the song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz: “The dreams that you dare to dream do come true.” 4. Why is the musical Wicked special to Lencia Kebede? A. She’s a co-author of the original work. B. It’s the first play she has ever acted in. C. It’s the beginning of her acting career. D. She’s the first black full-time heroine. 5. What has made Kebede change her career? A. Her childhood interest. B. Her family background. C. Her passion for acting. D. Her major in the college. 6. Which challenge is specifically mentioned about playing Elphaba? A. Memorizing the lyrics of songs. B. Performing two-way dances. C. Appealing to different audiences. D. Singing and acting in the air. 7. Why did Kebede share the lyric in the post? A. To recall her early acting journey. B. To reflect on her academic life. C. To show belief in pursuing a dream. D. To criticize the theater industry. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了30 岁的埃塞俄比亚移民之女 Lencia Kebede，放弃原规划投身音乐剧，成首位全职饰演《魔法坏女巫》Elphaba 的黑人演员，借歌词彰显逐梦信念。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In March, Lencia Kebede made her Broadway debut (首演) as the first black actor to play Elphaba full-time in the musical Wicked.( 今年3月，Lencia Kebede作为第一个在音乐剧《魔法坏女巫》中全职扮演Elphaba的黑人演员首次在百老汇亮相。)”可知，Lencia Kebede 是第一位在音乐剧《魔法坏女巫》（Wicked）中全职饰演 Elphaba 的黑人演员，这就是这部音乐剧对她来说特殊的原因。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But during her senior year, Kebede decided to follow her passion for performing.( 但在她大四的时候，Kebede决定追随她对表演的热情。)”以及第三段“After graduating from college in 2016, she pursued a career in musical theater.( 2016年大学毕业后，她开始了音乐剧的职业生涯。)”可知，是她对表演的热情让她决定改变职业道路。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Elphaba is known to be a challenging role that involves singing, acting, and being lifted into the air during the famous song “Defying Gravity”.( 众所周知，Elphaba是一个具有挑战性的角色，包括唱歌，表演，以及在著名的歌曲“Defying Gravity”中被提升到空中。)”可知，饰演 Elphaba 的一个具体挑战是在演唱和表演的同时还要在空中（被吊起）。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“She shared a lyric from the song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz: “The dreams that you dare to dream do come true.”(她分享了《绿野仙踪》中的歌曲《Somewhere Over the Rainbow》中的歌词：“你敢于梦想的梦想就会实现。”)”可知，她分享这句歌词是为了表达对追逐梦想的信念。故选C项。 C To mark its 130th anniversary this year the National Trust has announced plans to create around 2,500 square kilometres of “nature-rich” landscapes across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The National Trust is a charity that preserves nature and buildings. The organisation has set a target of 2035 for creating these natural areas. It’s an ambitious goal: in the past 10 years the Trust has done similar work, but only for around 250 square kilometres. If joined together, the landscapes it plans to create would cover an area bigger than the Lake District National Park. The charity’s focus will be restoring peatland (watery habitats containing a soil-like material called peat) and improving the quality of rivers. It aims to improve the health of enough soil to provide homes for one billion earthworms. The National Trust also aims to reconnect natural areas that have been broken into separate bits, such as a road cutting a forest in half. Known as habitat fragmentation, this is often caused by humans and harms animals by making it hard for them to feed and raise families. The new landscapes will help tackle climate change by protecting plants and peat. These both absorb carbon dioxide from the air. This is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, leading to rising temperatures and climate change. The plans are aimed at land already owned by the National Trust, as well as nearby areas and land that it plans to buy. Examples include linking an area of disused farmland in Merseyside, England, to a nearby area of forest. There are also plans to link two areas of protected land that are 10 miles apart in England’s Shropshire Hills. This should help breeding curlews. The charity aims to work with farmers and landowners to help them boost nature on their land. “We will ramp up our work to restore nature, both on our own land and beyond our boundaries,” said Hilary McGrady, director-general of the National Trust. 8. What does the National Trust aim to do for the next ten years? A. Protect all forests in the U.K. B. Increase the natural areas by tenfold. C. Enlarge the peatland by 10%. D. Expand Lake District National Park. 9. What harm does “habitat fragmentation” do? A. Separating natural areas into small parts. B. Threatening the survival of animals. C. Restricting human’s regular movement. D. Transforming forests into farmland. 10. What will the Trust do to create new landscapes? A. Connect smaller areas of land. B. Replant crops on disused farmland. C Till the land in mountain areas. D. Link the roads that cut the forests. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The history of the National Trust. B. The benefits of natural landscapes. C. The Trust’s efforts to cut emissions. D. The Trust’s plans to restore nature. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了庆祝今年成立130周年，英国国民托管组织宣布计划在英格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰创造约2500平方公里的“自然丰富”景观，通过大规模生态修复应对气候与生物多样性危机的十年计划。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“To mark its 130th anniversary this year, the National Trust has announced plans to create around 2,500 square kilometres of “nature-rich” landscapes across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.( 为了庆祝今年成立130周年，英国国民托管组织宣布计划在英格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰创造约2500平方公里的“自然丰富”景观)”以及第二段中“The organisation has set a target of 2035 for creating these natural areas. It’s an ambitious goal: in the past 10 years the Trust has done similar work, but only for around 250 square kilometres.( 该组织设定了到2035年创造这些自然区域的目标。这是一个雄心勃勃的目标：在过去的10年里，信托基金做了类似的工作，但只有大约250平方公里)”可推知，国民信托未来十年的目标是将自然区域增加十倍。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Known as habitat fragmentation, this is often caused by humans and harms animals by making it hard for them to feed and raise families.( 这被称为栖息地破碎化，通常是由人类造成的，并且通过使动物难以养活和抚养家庭来伤害动物)”可知，栖息地碎片化对动物造成伤害，使它们难以觅食和养育后代，也就是威胁动物的生存。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“Examples include linking an area of disused farmland in Merseyside, England, to a nearby area of forest. There are also plans to link two areas of protected land that are 10 miles apart in England’s Shropshire Hills.(例如，将英格兰默西塞德郡的一片废弃农田与附近的一片森林连接起来。此外，还计划将英格兰什罗普郡山（Shropshire Hills）相隔10英里的两个保护区连接起来)”可知，这些例子表明国民托管组织将连接较小的土地区域来创造新景观。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章开篇就指出国民托管组织为庆祝成立130周年宣布创建自然景观的计划，后面围绕该计划的目标（如增加自然区域、连接破碎自然区域等）、对生态环境的作用（如应对气候变化、改善土壤等）以及实施方式（与农民和土地所有者合作等）展开，所以文章主要是关于该组织恢复自然的计划。故选D项。 D Have you ever noticed how highway traffic often comes to a stop for no clear reason? Surprisingly, ants — tiny as they are — have mastered the art of avoiding such jams. Scientists are studying their strategies to help design smarter self-driving car systems. When roads get crowded, human drivers tend to brake suddenly, creating ripple effects that freeze traffic — like water turning to ice. Ants, however, keep moving smoothly even in extreme crowds. A study reveals their secret: They travel in small groups of 3-20, maintaining steady speeds and spacing without trying to overtake each other. Unlike ants, human drivers often act selfishly — changing lanes abruptly — which worsens traffic for everyone. Researchers suggest autonomous cars could mimic ants by sharing data to maintain safe distances and constant speeds, similar to how ants use chemical signals to coordinate (协调) without a central leader. Ant colonies also adapt flexibly. Their trails widen when busy, and they even crawl on tunnel ceilings to avoid congestion. Scientists propose that smart vehicles could use similar distributed decision-making to prevent bottlenecks. “Ants don’t need a commander; they cooperate through simple local interactions,” explains a biologist. Of course, ants have unique advantages. They can physically merge (挤在一起) when crowded and reshape their environment — skills beyond current technology. For now, drivers can adopt a simple ant-inspired tip: Keep enough distance from the car ahead. This small buffer helps absorb sudden stops and prevents “phantom jams” caused by braking waves. While future self-driving cars may fully copy ant-like coordination, today’s lesson is clear: Smooth traffic isn’t about rushing — it’s about working together. By prioritizing the group over individual speed, both humans and machines could finally outsmart the jam. 12. Why are scientists studying the ants’ traffic strategies? A. To analyze the reasons for traffic jam. B. To highlight ants’ anti-jam abilities. C. To improve self-driving car systems. D. To compare ants with human drivers. 13. What is the ants’ secret of avoiding traffic jams? A. Overtaking others if possible. B. Moving in well-coordinated teams. C. Slowing down when crowded. D. Following a central commander. 14. What does the underlined word “buffer” refer to in Paragraph 5? A. Distance. B. Technique. C. Creature. D. Lesson. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s the next? C. Where to go? D. Who to Blame? 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了蚂蚁擅长避免拥堵，其以小组协调移动等策略被科学家研究，旨在改进自动驾驶系统，人类也可借鉴其保持车距等经验应对交通堵塞。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Scientists are studying their strategies to help design smarter self - driving car systems.(科学家们正在研究它们的策略来帮助设计更智能的自动驾驶汽车系统。)”可知，科学家研究蚂蚁的交通策略是为了帮助设计更智能的自动驾驶汽车系统，也就是改善自动驾驶汽车系统。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据章第二段中“A study reveals their secret: They travel in small groups of 3 - 20, maintaining steady speeds and spacing without trying to overtake each other.(一项研究揭示了它们的秘密：它们以3-20人为一组，保持稳定的速度和间隔，而不会试图超越彼此)”以及第三段中“Researchers suggest autonomous cars could mimic ants by sharing data to maintain safe distances and constant speeds, similar to how ants use chemical signals to coordinate (协调) without a central leader.(研究人员认为，自动驾驶汽车可以模仿蚂蚁，通过共享数据来保持安全距离和恒定的速度，就像蚂蚁在没有中央领导的情况下使用化学信号进行协调一样)”可知，蚂蚁避免交通拥堵的秘诀是它们以 3 - 20 只的小群体出行，通过化学信号协调，保持稳定的速度和间距，即协调有序地移动。故选B项。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第五段中“For now, drivers can adopt a simple ant-inspired tip: Keep enough distance from the car ahead. This small buffer helps absorb sudden stops and prevents “phantom jams” caused by braking waves.(目前，司机们可以采用一个简单的蚂蚁提示：与前面的车保持足够的距离。这个小缓冲器有助于吸收突然停止，防止由制动波引起的“幽灵拥堵”)”可知，前面提到要和前面的车保持足够的距离，后面说这个小的“buffer”有助于吸收突然停车并防止由刹车波引起的“幽灵拥堵”，由此可知，这里的“buffer”指的就是前面提到的“distance”（距离）。故选A项。 15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了蚂蚁在交通方面的协调能力，以及人类可以从中学到的东西，强调平稳的交通不是靠匆忙（rush），而是靠合作。A选项“Why the Rush?”（为什么要匆忙？）既符合文章内容，又能引发读者思考，作为标题合适。故选A项。 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。 Insecurity is a feeling of uncertainty or self-doubt caused by internal or external factors.

Known 41. height 42. growing 43. to support 44. leaves 45. for 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了福州被称为“榕城”，自唐末就人工种植榕树，北宋时张伯玉推动种植使其得此名，福州国家森林公园的千年古榕尤为壮观。 【36题详解】 考查时间状语从句。句意：自唐末以来，福州就开始人工种植榕树。分析句子可知，设空处引导时间状语从句，结合句意可知，此处为连词since表示“自从……以来”引导时间状语从句，满足句意要求，主句为现在完成进行时，强调从唐代末期开始榕树的人工种植一直在进行。故填since。 【37题详解】 考查连词。句意：特别是北宋时期，巡抚张伯玉主张“全城宜绿，夏无遮阳伞”。根据句意可知，“the whole city should be green”（整个城市应该是绿色的）和“no parasols (遮阳伞) should be needed in summer”（夏天不需要遮阳伞）是并列关系，用连词and 连接。故填and。 【38题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：他在福州服务期间的言行鼓励了当地人民种植更多的榕树。分析句子可知，设空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少宾语，表示“他在福州任职期间所说和所做的事情”，用连接代词What引导。故填What。 【39题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：因此，福州获得了“榕树之城”的美誉。这里描述过去发生的事情，Fuzhou 获得“榕城”的声誉是过去的事情，用一般过去时，gain的过去式是gained。故填gained。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：福州国家森林公园的千年榕树被称为福州最大的榕树，它的高度高达20米，令人叹为观止。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作状语，be known as表示“作为……而闻名”，这里know和the thousand-year-old banyan tree之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词Known。故填Known。 【41题详解】 考查名词。句意：福州国家森林公园的千年榕树被称为福州最大的榕树，它的高度高达20米，令人叹为观止。“a + 名词”，high是形容词，其名词形式是height，“a height of 20 meters”表示“20 米的高度”。故填height。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：据专家介绍，榕树很可能是两棵树长在一起。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰two trees，two trees和grow为主动关系，所以为现在分词形式。故填growing。 【43题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：由于榕树没有长到地面的根，森林公园的工匠们建造了混凝土柱来支撑榕树的树干，使其年复一年地向外延伸。根据句意可知，此处为动词不定式to do表示“为了……”作目的状语，满足句意要求。故填to support。 【44题详解】 考查名词复数形式。句意：在烈日下，湖中倒映着这棵古老的榕树繁茂的枝叶，为当地人提供了绝佳的树荫。leaf是可数名词，根据常识，榕树有很多叶子，这里用复数形式leaves。故填leaves。 【45题详解】 考查固定短语。句意：在烈日下，湖中倒映着这棵古老的榕树繁茂的枝叶，为当地人提供了绝佳的树荫。“provide sth. for sb.”是固定搭配，表示“为某人提供某物”，所以这里用for。故填for。 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。暑假将至，本市一家国际旅行社招聘业余导游，请你给旅行社联系人张先生用英语写一封Email应聘。招聘条件如下： 1.英语口语流利； 2.熟悉本市历史和景点； 3.年龄在16岁以上； 4.每周工作3天，工作时间为上午9点至下午4点。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Mr. Zhang, I’m writing to apply for the position of a local tour guide you have advertised. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】 Dear Mr. Zhang, I’m writing to apply for the position of a local tour guide you have advertised.

Ahmed had been competing in cyclocross for three years, but this was Ryan’s first race. Ahmed tightened his gloves, determined to win this year’s championship. Ryan wished he could remember everything Ahmed had taught him. Ryan reviewed the last six months in his mind. From the moment Ahmed had first asked whether he would like to try the sport, Ryan had been excited. Ahmed helped Ryan find safety gear. He also explained the importance of practising and set up a plan for the two friends to practice together. Practising was hard. Ryan soon grew bored with working on the same skills over and over. He was ready to race! Ryan ended up skipping many of the practices. When Ryan did go to practices, he spent more time doing tricks with his bike than he did listening to Ahmed’s tips. “Now the real fun begins,” Ryan thought as he sat at the starting line. “You need to get serious,” Ahmed warned. “Cyclocross can be dangerous.” Bang! The starting gun went off. The boys rushed off. Ryan saw the first obstacle (障碍) ahead—a series of small hurdles. “Here I go!” Ryan shouted. He jumped off his bike and landed hard on his foot. He tried to pick it up by the wheels but dropped it. Finally, he got his bike off the ground. The bike was heavy, and his ankle hurt. Before he knew it, he was lying face-down in the mud. 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。 Ahmed reached down to help Ryan. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I’m sure I’ll finish my next cyclocross race,” Ryan said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Ahmed reached down to help Ryan. “Get up! You can still finish,” Ahmed said firmly, pulling Ryan to his feet. Ryan brushed mud off his clothes, wincing at the pain in his ankle. “I don’t think I can,” he muttered, staring at the distant finish line. Ahmed handed him the bike. “Remember what I taught you about perseverance? This is when it matters.” With Ahmed’s encouragement, Ryan limped forward, pushing his bike over the hurdles. Though he fell twice more, he kept going, fueled by the thought of not quitting. “ I’m sure I’ll finish my next cyclocross race,” Ryan said. Ahmed smiled, clapping him on the back. “That’s the spirit. But next time, let’s practice more—no skipping sessions or showing off tricks.” Ryan nodded, his face flushed with embarrassment. “You’re right. I was stupid to ignore your advice.” As they walked their bikes back, Ryan realized winning wasn’t everything. What mattered was respect for the sport and the effort to improve. He couldn’t wait to start practicing again—this time, the right way. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了瑞安参加首次公路越野赛，因之前忽视艾哈迈德的建议、疏于练习，比赛中摔倒受伤。在艾哈迈德鼓励下坚持下去，赛后他认识到自己的错误，决心下次认真练习、完成比赛，明白尊重运动和努力提升的重要性的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“艾哈迈德俯身帮助瑞安。”可知，第一段可描写在艾哈迈德的鼓励下，瑞安一瘸一拐地向前，推着自行车越过了障碍。 ②由第二段首句内容““我确信我能完成下一场自行车赛，”瑞安说。”可知，第二段可描写艾哈迈德告诉瑞安还需要多练习以及瑞安后悔当初没有听劝。 2.续写线索：帮助瑞安——鼓励瑞安坚持——着自行车越过了障碍——确信能完成下一场自行车赛——告诉瑞安还需要多练习——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①完成：finish /complete ②.忽视，忽略：ignore /overlook ③.意识到：realized / was aware of 情绪类 ①.激励：fueled /motivated ②.尴尬：embarrassment / awkwardness 【点睛】[高分句型1].
