The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest playwright in English literature, is celebrated at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. You can visit his childhood home, explore exhibits about his life and works, and experience live performances in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. You can also visit Anne Hathaway’s house, where Shakespeare courted her. Location: Stratford-upon-Avon, England Reading suggestion: Macbeth The Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House Discover the literary legacy (遗产) of Louisa May Alcott, author of Little Women, at her former home, Orchard House. Explore the rooms where Alcott penned her famous novel and learn about the inspirations behind her beloved characters. There have been no major changes to the house, so the rooms look much the same. Location: Concord, the US Reading suggestion: Little Women The Hans Christian Andersen Museum Enjoy the fairy tales that have attracted generations at the Hans Christian Andersen Museum. Explore the life and imagination of the Danish author behind his short stories like The Little Mermaid. From the moment you step into the building, the exhibition takes you deeper into Andersen’s fairy tales. Location: Odense, Denmark Suggested reading: The Little Mermaid The Pablo Neruda House Bury yourself in the poetry of Pablo Neruda, the Chilean poet. The Pablo Neruda House showcases his collection of art, poetry, and personal artifacts, offering a poetic journey through his life and creative expressions.

Art reviewers. B. Literature enthusiasts. C. Theatre performers. D. Architecture designers. B Arthur Lih of Massapequa sold his first LifeVac, a device to help save people’s life, to a fire department about 18 months ago, when the Jericho Fire Department purchased 21 of the devices. Now about 10 Long Island fire departments have purchased Lih’s invention, which is designed to draw foreign objects from the throats of choking victims when procedures such as the Heimlich Maneuver (海姆立克急救法) don’t work. He has sold about 5,000 LifeVac devices in the United States and abroad since the device went on the market in August 2014. The Freeport Fire Department is one of Lih’s clients. It bought about 25 LifeVac devices to put on trucks, as well as in chiefs’ vehicles, said Ray Maguire, the department’s executive director. “It’s an extra tool in the toolbox,” Maguire said. “I’d be surprised if anyone who sees it doesn’t purchase it. It’s that tool you may only need once, but it’s the tool you really want in case you need it. It’s affordable. I have it in my car. I have one at home, too.” Dr. Lee Smith at Northwell Health said that if a choking victim can’t breathe, he or she becomes a candidate for the Heimlich. If the Heimlich doesn’t work, the victim would probably lose consciousness because of a lack of oxygen. A challenge for any new medical device is convincing potential users that it works and is safe. In tests, the LifeVac successfully removed an obstruction (阻塞物) from the throat of a dead human body on the first try 49 out of 50 times, according to an August research article in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. Lih invented the product in his garage, inspired after he went with a friend to a hospital while the friend’s mother was going through tests. The friend said the last time he was there, a 7-year-old child had choked to death on a grape. 24. What’s the function of the LifeVac device? A. To put out the fire. B. To remove foreign objects. C. To design procedures. D. To treat victims’ throats. 25. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the invention? A. Its target users. B. Its practical necessity. C. Its major advantages. D. Its reasonable price 26. What inspired Lih to invent the product? A. A kid’s death. B. His client’s suggestion. C. A garage accident. D. Material rewards. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. A productive inventor. B. A convincing cure. C. An anti-choking device. D. An important toolbox. C You won’t find tigers jumping through fiery hoops in the wild or bears riding bicycles. Wild elephants don’t walk around on two legs and wild sea lions don’t balance balls on their noses for fun. These are the kinds of animal acts you may have seen at the circus. However, the wild animals in circuses are extremely stressed by circus conditions. The loud noise of the music, the cheers of the crowd and the dizzying lights all disorientate (失去方向) and cause stress to wild animals. Over long periods, this can result in abnormal behaviors and health problems related to anxiety. While it is possible that domesticated dogs could enjoy the stimulation of certain types of circus training and performance, for wild species such as tigers, bears and monkeys, performing on stage can get them deeply hurt. The movements and poses are completely unnatural and can cause physical injury and stress. When circus animals don’t perform the trick right, they are often beaten as punishment. The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs. When the show stops, the animals typically return to isolation in small, barren cages which give them no opportunity to carry out behaviors natural to their species, or to interact with their own kind. While not performing, the animals have nothing to do but stare at the walls. Many are limited to living in dark places with no daylight, no sunlight, and no exposure to the outside for stimulation. They live mind-numbing, boring, completely unnatural lives. Traveling circus animals can spend up to 11 months of the year on the road. They are limited inside very small stalls or cages, traveling for thousands of hours, over very long distances. It’s disturbing, unnatural, frightening and stressful for them. Nearly all circus animals are chained up and immobilized while traveling. Traveling poses many physical risks to them, including accidents, injuries, heart stroke and overheating, unusual cold and freezing temperatures that can make them sick, loud noise and general discomfort. 28. Why are animals in circuses unhealthy both mentally and physically? A. Because of their abnormal behavior. B. Because of their performances on stage. C. Because of their punishment from trainers. D. Because of their unnatural living conditions. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The animals’ basic needs when a show stops. B. The animals’ living state when they do not perform. C. The animals’ mental state when they are travelling. D. The animals’ daily interactions when they are caged. 30. What does the underlined word “immobilized” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Fixed in a place. B. Delivered to a place. C. Trained by someone. D. Followed by someone. 31. What’s the author’s attitude towards those animals in circuses? A. Indifferent. B. Annoyed. C. Sympathetic. D. Opposed. D Does a happy person live longer? Many studies have convinced us that happiness brings good health, which has resulted in an increasing demand for speakers and products encouraging positive thinking. However, being happy does not promise that one is going to be healthy. There are other factors that influence one’s health and long life such as a person’s genes or even a person’s socio-economic condition. Some research even suggests that positive thinking can be dangerous. Positive thinking, when taken to the extreme, can cause a person to be separated from reality. For example, a person who thinks that staying happy and positive can help him recover from an illness like cancer but later fails to recover from it, may blame himself for not being happy. In this case, positive thinking may potentially make the victim disregard other factors. Sometimes the pursuit of happiness is even associated with serious mental health problems such as depression. All types of happiness are not good for us either. For example, pride, a pleasant feeling, can sometimes rob us of the ability to empathize with others or understand another’s viewpoint. This anti-social behavior can cause people around us to turn away from us, and this could, in turn, make us feel lonely and do harm to our mental and even physical health. Moreover, unpleasant feelings can be beneficial to a person’s well-being. Researchers believe that unpleasant feelings can help us make sense of our challenges and experiences in a way that supports psychological well-being. For example, if I have behaved badly towards my good friend, the feelings of guilt and sadness might motivate me to apologize and ask for forgiveness. The rebuilding of a broken relationship can be a lift to one’s mental well-being. In trying to experience happiness, we should remember that seeking for happiness as an end in itself can be self-defeating, and does not necessarily lead to better health. After all, one will surely experience setbacks and conflicts in life. Instead, learning to cope with negative emotions with a realistic positive attitude is key to a person’s good health. 32. What’s the writer’s opinion in this passage? A. Negative thinking can be dangerous. B. Staying happy can bring good health. C. Unpleasant feelings cannot be beneficial. D. Happiness cannot ensure one’s good health. 33. When can positive thinking be dangerous according to the passage? A. When we use it with a realistic attitude to solve problems. B. When we focus on it as an only determinant of happy life. C. When we think it one of the necessary factor for good health. D. When we realize it may rob us of the ability to understand others. 34. How can unpleasant feelings be beneficial to a person’s well-being? A. They rebuild a broken relationship. B. They lead to self-reflection and personal growth. C. They help keep the problems and challenges away. D. They prevent long-term negative effects on mental health. 35. Which of the following has the similar meaning of “an end in itself”? A. An ultimate goal. B. An individual plan. C. A final decision. D. A great start. 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。 How to Write Any High School Essay Writing an essay is an important basic skill that you will need to succeed in high school, college, and beyond.

But a shift in educational policies (政策), with an emphasis on academics, had reduced my choir to a mere 32 students. My lead singers had graduated or been forced to drop music classes, leaving me with inexperienced kids who couldn’t read music and could sing only a simple melody (曲子). This year’s singing contest would be held in seven months. Compared to other school choirs, the Madison choir with 75 members, King School with 125 students and etc., ours was little in size. One day, a student asked eagerly, “What will we be singing for contest this year?” I feared this moment. “Maybe we’ll skip the contest,” I suggested. “No! We can make it!” the kids screamed. “I’ll have to think about it,” I said, hoping their enthusiasm would die off soon. But that didn’t happen. Every day they begged and insisted. However, I couldn’t tell them they weren’t good enough as I had to protect their self-esteem (自尊). My efforts to discourage their eagerness, by showing them a difficult piece of music from the contest list, simply ended with, “It’s okay, Mrs. Pliszka, we’ll get it.” I struggled to make a decision. If I destroyed their hope, would I destroy their spirit? I wasn’t afraid of hard work, and I enjoyed a challenge. But I wasn’t a miracle (奇迹) worker. So I considered this dilemma. Finally, one morning I stomped into class. “From now on, be in your seats with your music folders on the desk when the bell rings, and sit at attention, ready for warm-ups the instant I’m ready to begin. When I’m working with one section, there will be no talking from the others. You will listen, and you will learn. You will work harder. If all these rules are obeyed, we will be entering the contest. To achieve our big dream, …” The rest of my sentence was lost in shouts of delight and applause. I was certain they would fail to keep this promise, and no one would have to be embarrassed. 注意： 1. 所写短文的词数应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司12 / 13 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025-2026学年高二选择性必修第二册英语单元测试 Unit3·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 做题时，请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。 1.

Now about 10 Long Island fire departments have purchased Lih’s invention, which is designed to draw foreign objects from the throats of choking victims when procedures such as the Heimlich Maneuver (海姆立克急救法) don’t work. He has sold about 5,000 LifeVac devices in the United States and abroad since the device went on the market in August 2014. The Freeport Fire Department is one of Lih’s clients. It bought about 25 LifeVac devices to put on trucks, as well as in chiefs’ vehicles, said Ray Maguire, the department’s executive director. “It’s an extra tool in the toolbox,” Maguire said. “I’d be surprised if anyone who sees it doesn’t purchase it. It’s that tool you may only need once, but it’s the tool you really want in case you need it. It’s affordable. I have it in my car. I have one at home, too.” Dr. Lee Smith at Northwell Health said that if a choking victim can’t breathe, he or she becomes a candidate for the Heimlich. If the Heimlich doesn’t work, the victim would probably lose consciousness because of a lack of oxygen. A challenge for any new medical device is convincing potential users that it works and is safe. In tests, the LifeVac successfully removed an obstruction (阻塞物) from the throat of a dead human body on the first try 49 out of 50 times, according to an August research article in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. Lih invented the product in his garage, inspired after he went with a friend to a hospital while the friend’s mother was going through tests. The friend said the last time he was there, a 7-year-old child had choked to death on a grape. 24. What’s the function of the LifeVac device? A. To put out the fire. B. To remove foreign objects. C. To design procedures. D. To treat victims’ throats. 25. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the invention? A. Its target users. B. Its practical necessity. C. Its major advantages. D. Its reasonable price 26. What inspired Lih to invent the product? A. A kid’s death. B. His client’s suggestion. C. A garage accident. D. Material rewards. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. A productive inventor. B. A convincing cure. C. An anti-choking device. D. An important toolbox. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. A 27. C 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了马萨皮加的亚瑟·李在听闻了海姆立克急救法无法解救一个被葡萄噎着的7岁的孩子，最终窒息而死的事件之后，在自家车库里发明了一套救生设备，能帮助从窒息受害者的喉咙中抽出异物，他的这套设备有效且安全，已销售5000套。 24. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Arthur Lih of Massapequa sold his first LifeVac, a device to help save people’s life, to a fire department about 18 months ago, when the Jericho Fire Department purchased 21 of the devices. Now about 10 Long Island fire departments have purchased Lih’s invention, which is designed to draw foreign objects from the throats of choking victims when procedures such as the Heimlich Maneuver (海姆立克急救法) don’t work. (大约18个月前，马萨皮加的亚瑟·李把他的第一台救生设备卖给了一个消防部门，当时杰里科消防部门购买了21台这个救生设备。现在大约有10个长岛消防部门购买了李的发明，该发明旨在当海姆利克氏急救法等程序不起作用时，从窒息受害者的喉咙中抽出异物。)”可知，李发明的 LifeVac是救生设备，用来取出窒息受害者的喉咙中的异物。故选B项。 25.主旨大意题。根据第二段“The Freeport Fire Department is one of Lih’s clients. It bought about 25 LifeVac devices to put on trucks, as well as in chiefs’ vehicles, said Ray Maguire, the department’s executive director. ‘It’s an extra tool in the toolbox,’ Maguire said. ‘I’d be surprised if anyone who sees it doesn’t purchase it. It’s that tool you may only need once, but it’s the tool you really want in case you need it. It’s affordable. I have it in my car. I have one at home, too.’ (自由港消防局是李的客户之一。该部门的执行主任雷·马奎尔说，他们购买了大约25台LifeVac设备，安装在卡车上，以及局长们的车辆上。’这是工具箱里的一个额外工具，’马奎尔说。’如果看到它的人不购买它，我会感到惊讶。这种工具你可能只需要一次，但它是你真正想要的工具，以防你需要它。它是负担得起的。我车里就有。我家里也有一个。’)”可知，借助于客户，宣传这个发明是一个非常实用的必需品，车上配一个，可做到有备无患。故选B项。 26. 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Lih invented the product in his garage, inspired after he went with a friend to a hospital while the friend’s mother was going through tests. The friend said the last time he was there, a 7-year-old child had choked to death on a grape. (李在他的车库里发明了这款产品，灵感出自于他和一个朋友去医院，当时朋友的母亲正在做检查。这位朋友说，上次他在那里的时候，一个7岁的孩子被一颗葡萄噎死。)”可知，这个孩子被葡萄噎着了，但是去了医院也没被救回来，说明海姆立克急救法没奏效，这个孩子的死亡促成Lih发明这个救生设备。故选A项。 27.主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Now about 10 Long Island fire departments have purchased Lih’s invention, which is designed to draw foreign objects from the throats of choking victims when procedures such as the Heimlich Maneuver (海姆立克急救法) don’t work. (现在大约有10个长岛消防部门购买了李的发明，该发明旨在当海姆利克氏急救法等程序不起作用时，从窒息受害者的喉咙中抽出异物。)”，以及第四段“A challenge for any new medical device is convincing potential users that it works and is safe. In tests, the LifeVac successfully removed an obstruction (阻塞物) from the throat of a dead human body on the first try 49 out of 50 times, according to an August research article in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. (任何新型医疗设备都面临着一个挑战，那就是让潜在用户相信它是有效和安全的。根据《美国急诊医学杂志》8月份发表的一篇研究文章，在测试中，LifeVac在50次尝试中有49次成功地从死人的喉咙中移除了阻塞物。)”可知，本文介绍了Lih发明的可以防止喉咙处异物阻塞致死的一套设备。故选C项。 C You won’t find tigers jumping through fiery hoops in the wild or bears riding bicycles. Wild elephants don’t walk around on two legs and wild sea lions don’t balance balls on their noses for fun. These are the kinds of animal acts you may have seen at the circus. However, the wild animals in circuses are extremely stressed by circus conditions. The loud noise of the music, the cheers of the crowd and the dizzying lights all disorientate (失去方向) and cause stress to wild animals. Over long periods, this can result in abnormal behaviors and health problems related to anxiety. While it is possible that domesticated dogs could enjoy the stimulation of certain types of circus training and performance, for wild species such as tigers, bears and monkeys, performing on stage can get them deeply hurt. The movements and poses are completely unnatural and can cause physical injury and stress. When circus animals don’t perform the trick right, they are often beaten as punishment. The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs. When the show stops, the animals typically return to isolation in small, barren cages which give them no opportunity to carry out behaviors natural to their species, or to interact with their own kind. While not performing, the animals have nothing to do but stare at the walls. Many are limited to living in dark places with no daylight, no sunlight, and no exposure to the outside for stimulation. They live mind-numbing, boring, completely unnatural lives. Traveling circus animals can spend up to 11 months of the year on the road. They are limited inside very small stalls or cages, traveling for thousands of hours, over very long distances. It’s disturbing, unnatural, frightening and stressful for them. Nearly all circus animals are chained up and immobilized while traveling. Traveling poses many physical risks to them, including accidents, injuries, heart stroke and overheating, unusual cold and freezing temperatures that can make them sick, loud noise and general discomfort. 28. Why are animals in circuses unhealthy both mentally and physically? A. Because of their abnormal behavior. B. Because of their performances on stage. C. Because of their punishment from trainers. D. Because of their unnatural living conditions. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The animals’ basic needs when a show stops. B. The animals’ living state when they do not perform. C. The animals’ mental state when they are travelling. D. The animals’ daily interactions when they are caged. 30. What does the underlined word “immobilized” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Fixed in a place. B. Delivered to a place. C. Trained by someone. D. Followed by someone. 31. What’s the author’s attitude towards those animals in circuses? A. Indifferent. B. Annoyed. C. Sympathetic. D. Opposed. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了马戏团动物在表演和生活中的不健康状态，以及它们所面临的种种问题。 28. 推理判断题。根据第二段“However, the wild animals in circuses are extremely stressed by circus conditions. The loud noise of the music, the cheers of the crowd and the dizzying lights all disorientate (失去方向) and cause stress to wild animals. Over long periods, this can result in abnormal behaviors and health problems related to anxiety. While it is possible that domesticated dogs could enjoy the stimulation of certain types of circus training and performance, for wild species such as tigers, bears and monkeys, performing on stage can get them deeply hurt. The movements and poses are completely unnatural and can cause physical injury and stress. When circus animals don’t perform the trick right, they are often beaten as punishment.(然而，马戏团里的野生动物因为马戏团的条件而极度紧张。音乐的巨大噪音、人群的欢呼声和令人眩晕的灯光都会让野生动物迷失方向并产生压力。长此以往，这会导致异常行为和与焦虑相关的健康问题。虽然家犬可能会喜欢某些类型的马戏团训练和表演的刺激，但对于老虎、熊和猴子等野生物种来说，在舞台上表演可能会让它们受到严重伤害。这些动作和姿势完全不自然，可能导致身体受伤和压力。当马戏团动物表演不当时，它们经常会受到殴打作为惩罚)”和第三段中“The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs.(马戏团的居住条件一直不能满足动物最基本的需求)”可知，马戏团的动物因为不自然的生活条件，包括表演时的压力和不当对待，以及非自然的居住环境，导致它们在心理和身体上都不健康。故选D项。 29. 主旨大意题。根据第三段“The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs. When the show stops, the animals typically return to isolation in small, barren cages which give them no opportunity to carry out behaviors natural to their species, or to interact with their own kind. While not performing, the animals have nothing to do but stare at the walls. Many are limited to living in dark places with no daylight, no sunlight, and no exposure to the outside for stimulation. They live mind-numbing, boring, completely unnatural lives.(马戏团的居住条件一直不能满足动物最基本的需求。当表演结束时，动物们通常会被隔离在狭小、贫瘠的笼子里，这使它们没有机会表现出自己物种的自然行为，也无法与同类互动。在不表演的时候，动物们无所事事，只能盯着墙壁看。许多动物只能生活在没有日光、没有阳光、没有外界刺激的黑暗地方。它们过着令人麻木、无聊、完全不自然的生活)”可知，本段主要讲述了动物在不表演时的生活状态，即它们被囚禁在狭小的笼子里，无法展现自然行为，生活极度无聊且不自然。故选B项。 30. 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Nearly all circus animals are chained up and immobilized while traveling.(几乎所有的马戏团动物在旅行时都被锁链锁住并immobilized)”中“are chained up”可知，马戏团在出行时动物都是被锁链锁住的，由此可知，它们“被固定在一个地方”，故划线词immobilized与Fixed in a place同义。故选A项。 31. 推理判断题。根据全文内容，特别是第二段“However, the wild animals in circuses are extremely stressed by circus conditions.(然而，马戏团里的野生动物因为马戏团的条件而极度紧张)”和第三段“The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs.(马戏团的居住条件一直不能满足动物最基本的需求)”可知，作者详细描述了马戏团动物所遭受的不公和痛苦，包括表演时的压力、不当的对待以及非自然的居住环境。由此可推知，作者对马戏团中的动物持同情态度。故选C项。 D Does a happy person live longer? Many studies have convinced us that happiness brings good health, which has resulted in an increasing demand for speakers and products encouraging positive thinking. However, being happy does not promise that one is going to be healthy. There are other factors that influence one’s health and long life such as a person’s genes or even a person’s socio-economic condition. Some research even suggests that positive thinking can be dangerous. Positive thinking, when taken to the extreme, can cause a person to be separated from reality. For example, a person who thinks that staying happy and positive can help him recover from an illness like cancer but later fails to recover from it, may blame himself for not being happy. In this case, positive thinking may potentially make the victim disregard other factors. Sometimes the pursuit of happiness is even associated with serious mental health problems such as depression. All types of happiness are not good for us either. For example, pride, a pleasant feeling, can sometimes rob us of the ability to empathize with others or understand another’s viewpoint. This anti-social behavior can cause people around us to turn away from us, and this could, in turn, make us feel lonely and do harm to our mental and even physical health. Moreover, unpleasant feelings can be beneficial to a person’s well-being. Researchers believe that unpleasant feelings can help us make sense of our challenges and experiences in a way that supports psychological well-being. For example, if I have behaved badly towards my good friend, the feelings of guilt and sadness might motivate me to apologize and ask for forgiveness. The rebuilding of a broken relationship can be a lift to one’s mental well-being. In trying to experience happiness, we should remember that seeking for happiness as an end in itself can be self-defeating, and does not necessarily lead to better health. After all, one will surely experience setbacks and conflicts in life. Instead, learning to cope with negative emotions with a realistic positive attitude is key to a person’s good health. 32. What’s the writer’s opinion in this passage? A. Negative thinking can be dangerous. B. Staying happy can bring good health. C. Unpleasant feelings cannot be beneficial. D. Happiness cannot ensure one’s good health. 33. When can positive thinking be dangerous according to the passage? A. When we use it with a realistic attitude to solve problems. B. When we focus on it as an only determinant of happy life. C. When we think it one of the necessary factor for good health. D. When we realize it may rob us of the ability to understand others. 34. How can unpleasant feelings be beneficial to a person’s well-being? A. They rebuild a broken relationship. B. They lead to self-reflection and personal growth. C. They help keep the problems and challenges away. D. They prevent long-term negative effects on mental health. 35. Which of the following has the similar meaning of “an end in itself”? A. An ultimate goal. B. An individual plan. C. A final decision. D. A great start. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B 35. A 【导语】本文是说明文。文章提出了快乐并不能保证一个人就会健康的观点。还有其他因素影响一个人的健康和长寿，例如一个人的基因，甚至一个人的社会经济状况决定是否会健康。学会用现实的积极态度应对消极情绪是一个人健康的关键。 32.细节理解题。根据第一段“However, being happy does not promise that one is going to be healthy. There are other factors that influence one’s health and long life such as a person’s genes or even a person’s socio-economic condition.”（然而，快乐并不能保证一个人就会健康。还有其他因素影响一个人的健康和长寿，例如一个人的基因，甚至一个人的社会经济状况。）可知，文章中作者认为快乐并不能保证一个人的健康。故选D。 33. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some research even suggests that positive thinking can be dangerous. Positive thinking, when taken to the extreme, can cause a person to be separated from reality. For example, a person who thinks that staying happy and positive can help him recover from an illness like cancer but later fails to recover from it, may blame himself for not being happy. In this case, positive thinking may potentially make the victim disregard other factors.”（一些研究甚至表明，积极思考可能是危险的。当走向极端时，积极的思考会导致一个人脱离现实。例如，一个人认为保持快乐和积极可以帮助他从癌症等疾病中恢复过来，但后来却无法恢复，他可能会责怪自己不快乐。在这种情况下，积极的思考可能会使受害者忽视其他因素。）可知，当我们将积极思考视为幸福生活的唯一决定因素时，积极思考可能是危险的。故选B。 34. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Moreover, unpleasant feelings can be beneficial to a person’s well-being. Researchers believe that unpleasant feelings can help us make sense of our challenges and experiences in a way that supports psychological well-being. For example, if I have behaved badly towards my good friend, the feelings of guilt and sadness might motivate me to apologize and ask for forgiveness. The rebuilding of a broken relationship can be a lift to one’s mental well-being.”（此外，不愉快的感觉可能对一个人的健康有益。研究人员认为，不愉快的感觉可以帮助我们以一种支持心理健康的方式理解我们的挑战和经历。例如，如果我对我的好朋友表现不好，内疚和悲伤的感觉可能会促使我道歉并请求原谅。重建一段破裂的关系可以提升一个人的精神健康。）可知，不愉快的感觉能导致自我反思和个人成长，这有益于一个人的幸福。故选B。 35. 词句猜测题。根据第一段“However, being happy does not promise that one is going to be healthy. There are other factors that influence one’s health and long life such as a person’s genes or even a person’s socio-economic condition. (然而，快乐并不意味着一个人就会健康。还有其他因素会影响一个人的健康和长寿，例如一个人的基因，甚至一个人的社会经济状况。)”可知，快乐不一定会让我们健康，我们不能把追求快乐当作目的。以及二段说到积极思想有时很危险，第三段说不是所有的快乐都对我们有好处，最后一段“In trying to experience happiness, we should remember that seeking for happiness as an end in itself can be self-defeating, and does not necessarily lead to better health. After all, one will surely experience setbacks and conflicts in life. Instead, learning to cope with negative emotions with a realistic positive attitude is key to a person’s good health.”（在尝试体验快乐的过程中，我们应该记住，把追求快乐作为an end in itself可能会弄巧成拙，也不一定会带来更好的健康。毕竟，一个人在生活中肯定会遇到挫折和冲突。相反，学会用现实的积极态度应对消极情绪是一个人健康的关键）可知，不要把追求快乐当作目的，an end in itself是“目的”的意思，近义词是An ultimate goal表示“一个最终目标”。故选A。 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。 How to Write Any High School Essay Writing an essay is an important basic skill that you will need to succeed in high school, college, and beyond.

Unlike 61. itself 62. efficiency 63. questioned 64. and 65. to push 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲DeepSeek公司2023年成立，通过创新技术推出模型，凭强化学习脱颖而出，阐述公司使命与名字含义。 56. 考查动词的时态和语态。句意：这家公司正式名称为DeepSeek人工智能基础技术研究有限公司，于 2023 年 7 月成立。此处为谓语动词作定语，主语the firm与found之间是被动关系，且时间状语是in July 2023，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数。故填was founded。 57. 考查形容词。句意：作为一家创新型科技初创公司，DeepSeek致力于开发前沿的大语言模型（LLMs）及相关技术。此处为形容词作定语修饰名词technology startup，innovate的形容词形式是innovative，表示“创新的”。故填innovative。 58. 考查动词的时态。句意：自从去年1月其首个模型“DeepSeek大语言模型”发布以来，该公司已经经历了多轮迭代。空处为主句谓语动词，主语the company与undergo为主动关系，since引导的时间状语从句用了一般过去时，主句要用现在完成时，主语the company是第三人称单数，所以用has undergone。故填has undergone。 59. 考查定语从句。句意：据美国媒体报道，去年12月，这家初创公司推出了其开源大语言模型“V3”，它超越了Meta 的所有开源大语言模型，可与OpenAI的闭源GPT4-o相媲美。这是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是open-source LLM “V3”，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。 60. 考查介词。句意：与思维链（CoT）和监督微调（SFT）等传统方法不同，DeepSeek通过采用强化学习（RL）作为核心训练方法在人工智能行业中脱颖而出。根据上下文提到的采用了不同的方法，这里表达“与……不同”的意思，介词unlike符合，且句首时首字母应大写。故填Unlike。 61. 考查反身代词。句意：与思维链（CoT）和监督微调（SFT）等传统方法不同，DeepSeek通过采用强化学习（RL）作为核心训练方法在人工智能行业中脱颖而出。主语是DeepSeek，这里表示“使它自己与众不同”，应用反身代词itself。故填itself。 62. 考查名词。句意：强化学习的采用使DeepSeek提高了其模型的推理能力、适应性和效率，使其成为该领域的领先者。and 连接并列名词，根据前面的reasoning 和adaptability 可知，这里需要用efficient的名词形式efficiency，表示“效率”，为不可数名词，作宾语。故填efficiency。 63. 考查状语从句的省略。句意：当被问及“DeepSeek”的含义时，其最新的R1聊天机器人回答道：“这个名字反映了公司深入探索和推进人工智能基础技术的使命，旨在突破人工智能创新和应用的界限。”此处为时间状语从句的省略，question与主语its latest R1 chatbot之间是被动关系，所以应用过去分词，这里把从句的主语和be动词省略掉了，把从句补充完整相当于When its latest R1 chatbot was questioned about the meaning of “DeepSeek,”。故填questioned。 64. 考查连词。句意：当被问及“DeepSeek” 的含义时，其最新的R1聊天机器人回答道：“这个名字反映了公司深入探索和推进人工智能基础技术的使命，旨在突破人工智能创新和应用的界限。”结合句意可知，explore和advance是并列关系，所以用连词and连接。故填and。 65. 考查非谓语动词。句意：当被问及“DeepSeek” 的含义时，其最新的 R1 聊天机器人回答道：“这个名字反映了公司深入探索和推进人工智能基础技术的使命，旨在突破人工智能创新和应用的界限。”此处为aim to do sth.意为“旨在做某事”符合句意，所以使用动词不定式形式作宾语。故填to push。 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 假定你是李华，就读于某国际中学，你参加的活动小组本周讨论的主题为“传承中国诗歌文化”。请你准备一篇发言稿，内容包括： 1. 高中生学习中国诗歌的现状； 2. 中国诗歌学习的好处。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Good afternoon, everyone! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That’s all.

But a shift in educational policies (政策), with an emphasis on academics, had reduced my choir to a mere 32 students. My lead singers had graduated or been forced to drop music classes, leaving me with inexperienced kids who couldn’t read music and could sing only a simple melody (曲子). This year’s singing contest would be held in seven months. Compared to other school choirs, the Madison choir with 75 members, King School with 125 students and etc., ours was little in size. One day, a student asked eagerly, “What will we be singing for contest this year?” I feared this moment. “Maybe we’ll skip the contest,” I suggested. “No! We can make it!” the kids screamed. “I’ll have to think about it,” I said, hoping their enthusiasm would die off soon. But that didn’t happen. Every day they begged and insisted. However, I couldn’t tell them they weren’t good enough as I had to protect their self-esteem (自尊). My efforts to discourage their eagerness, by showing them a difficult piece of music from the contest list, simply ended with, “It’s okay, Mrs. Pliszka, we’ll get it.” I struggled to make a decision. If I destroyed their hope, would I destroy their spirit? I wasn’t afraid of hard work, and I enjoyed a challenge. But I wasn’t a miracle (奇迹) worker. So I considered this dilemma. Finally, one morning I stomped into class. “From now on, be in your seats with your music folders on the desk when the bell rings, and sit at attention, ready for warm-ups the instant I’m ready to begin. When I’m working with one section, there will be no talking from the others. You will listen, and you will learn. You will work harder. If all these rules are obeyed, we will be entering the contest. To achieve our big dream, …” The rest of my sentence was lost in shouts of delight and applause. I was certain they would fail to keep this promise, and no one would have to be embarrassed. 注意： 1. 所写短文的词数应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. They followed the rules with no complaints and seemed to thrive on the discipline demanded of them. Each morning they sat attention, ready for warm-ups, learned, practiced, rehearsed and went over and over the songs to be sung in the contest. I was amazed at the driving force that kept pushing them on. The courage they had shown from day one overwhelmed me, changing something within myself. No more did I hesitate, but make every effort to teach them. With the passage of time, the kids were making steady and remarkable improvements, which was beyond my expectations. (90w) When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! They mounted the stairs, smiles of confidence spreading on their faces. Their singing sounded good. The entire audience broke into loud applause the instant they finished their songs. My heart swelled with pride for this little group. After what seemed a century, the results were posted. There was our name at the very top! All around kids were squealing and embracing. Warm tears wet my cheeks. And I was surrounded by kids who had a dream—kids who refused to give up—kids who taught me to never doubt the possibility of success for any student or any class ever again.

The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest playwright in English literature, is celebrated at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. You can visit his childhood home, explore exhibits about his life and works, and experience live performances in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. You can also visit Anne Hathaway’s house, where Shakespeare courted her. Location: Stratford-upon-Avon, England Reading suggestion: Macbeth The Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House Discover the literary legacy (遗产) of Louisa May Alcott, author of Little Women, at her former home, Orchard House. Explore the rooms where Alcott penned her famous novel and learn about the inspirations behind her beloved characters. There have been no major changes to the house, so the rooms look much the same. Location: Concord, the US Reading suggestion: Little Women The Hans Christian Andersen Museum Enjoy the fairy tales that have attracted generations at the Hans Christian Andersen Museum. Explore the life and imagination of the Danish author behind his short stories like The Little Mermaid. From the moment you step into the building, the exhibition takes you deeper into Andersen’s fairy tales. Location: Odense, Denmark Suggested reading: The Little Mermaid The Pablo Neruda House Bury yourself in the poetry of Pablo Neruda, the Chilean poet. The Pablo Neruda House showcases his collection of art, poetry, and personal artifacts, offering a poetic journey through his life and creative expressions. I wish I knew Spanish well enough to read Neruda’s works in his native language. Location: Santiago, Chile Suggested reading: Twenty Love Poems: And a Song of Despair 21. What can visitors do at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust? A. Watch live shows. B. Learn to write plays. C. Meet Anne Hathaway. D. Read drafts of Macbeth. 22. Which of the works was probably written in Spanish? A. Macbeth. B. Little Women. C. The Little Mermaid. D. Twenty Love Poems: And a Song of Despair. 23. Who is the text intended for? A. Art reviewers. B. Literature enthusiasts. C. Theatre performers. D. Architecture designers. B Arthur Lih of Massapequa sold his first LifeVac, a device to help save people’s life, to a fire department about 18 months ago, when the Jericho Fire Department purchased 21 of the devices. Now about 10 Long Island fire departments have purchased Lih’s invention, which is designed to draw foreign objects from the throats of choking victims when procedures such as the Heimlich Maneuver (海姆立克急救法) don’t work. He has sold about 5,000 LifeVac devices in the United States and abroad since the device went on the market in August 2014. The Freeport Fire Department is one of Lih’s clients. It bought about 25 LifeVac devices to put on trucks, as well as in chiefs’ vehicles, said Ray Maguire, the department’s executive director. “It’s an extra tool in the toolbox,” Maguire said. “I’d be surprised if anyone who sees it doesn’t purchase it. It’s that tool you may only need once, but it’s the tool you really want in case you need it. It’s affordable. I have it in my car. I have one at home, too.” Dr. Lee Smith at Northwell Health said that if a choking victim can’t breathe, he or she becomes a candidate for the Heimlich. If the Heimlich doesn’t work, the victim would probably lose consciousness because of a lack of oxygen. A challenge for any new medical device is convincing potential users that it works and is safe. In tests, the LifeVac successfully removed an obstruction (阻塞物) from the throat of a dead human body on the first try 49 out of 50 times, according to an August research article in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. Lih invented the product in his garage, inspired after he went with a friend to a hospital while the friend’s mother was going through tests. The friend said the last time he was there, a 7-year-old child had choked to death on a grape. 24. What’s the function of the LifeVac device? A. To put out the fire. B. To remove foreign objects. C. To design procedures. D. To treat victims’ throats. 25. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the invention? A. Its target users. B. Its practical necessity. C. Its major advantages. D. Its reasonable price 26. What inspired Lih to invent the product? A. A kid’s death. B. His client’s suggestion. C. A garage accident. D. Material rewards. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. A productive inventor. B. A convincing cure. C. An anti-choking device. D. An important toolbox. C You won’t find tigers jumping through fiery hoops in the wild or bears riding bicycles. Wild elephants don’t walk around on two legs and wild sea lions don’t balance balls on their noses for fun. These are the kinds of animal acts you may have seen at the circus. However, the wild animals in circuses are extremely stressed by circus conditions. The loud noise of the music, the cheers of the crowd and the dizzying lights all disorientate (失去方向) and cause stress to wild animals. Over long periods, this can result in abnormal behaviors and health problems related to anxiety. While it is possible that domesticated dogs could enjoy the stimulation of certain types of circus training and performance, for wild species such as tigers, bears and monkeys, performing on stage can get them deeply hurt. The movements and poses are completely unnatural and can cause physical injury and stress. When circus animals don’t perform the trick right, they are often beaten as punishment. The living conditions at circuses consistently fail to meet the animals’ most basic needs. When the show stops, the animals typically return to isolation in small, barren cages which give them no opportunity to carry out behaviors natural to their species, or to interact with their own kind. While not performing, the animals have nothing to do but stare at the walls. Many are limited to living in dark places with no daylight, no sunlight, and no exposure to the outside for stimulation. They live mind-numbing, boring, completely unnatural lives. Traveling circus animals can spend up to 11 months of the year on the road. They are limited inside very small stalls or cages, traveling for thousands of hours, over very long distances. It’s disturbing, unnatural, frightening and stressful for them. Nearly all circus animals are chained up and immobilized while traveling. Traveling poses many physical risks to them, including accidents, injuries, heart stroke and overheating, unusual cold and freezing temperatures that can make them sick, loud noise and general discomfort. 28. Why are animals in circuses unhealthy both mentally and physically? A. Because of their abnormal behavior. B. Because of their performances on stage. C. Because of their punishment from trainers. D. Because of their unnatural living conditions. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The animals’ basic needs when a show stops. B. The animals’ living state when they do not perform. C. The animals’ mental state when they are travelling. D. The animals’ daily interactions when they are caged. 30. What does the underlined word “immobilized” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Fixed in a place. B. Delivered to a place. C. Trained by someone. D. Followed by someone. 31. What’s the author’s attitude towards those animals in circuses? A. Indifferent. B. Annoyed. C. Sympathetic. D. Opposed. D Does a happy person live longer? Many studies have convinced us that happiness brings good health, which has resulted in an increasing demand for speakers and products encouraging positive thinking. However, being happy does not promise that one is going to be healthy. There are other factors that influence one’s health and long life such as a person’s genes or even a person’s socio-economic condition. Some research even suggests that positive thinking can be dangerous. Positive thinking, when taken to the extreme, can cause a person to be separated from reality. For example, a person who thinks that staying happy and positive can help him recover from an illness like cancer but later fails to recover from it, may blame himself for not being happy. In this case, positive thinking may potentially make the victim disregard other factors. Sometimes the pursuit of happiness is even associated with serious mental health problems such as depression. All types of happiness are not good for us either. For example, pride, a pleasant feeling, can sometimes rob us of the ability to empathize with others or understand another’s viewpoint. This anti-social behavior can cause people around us to turn away from us, and this could, in turn, make us feel lonely and do harm to our mental and even physical health. Moreover, unpleasant feelings can be beneficial to a person’s well-being. Researchers believe that unpleasant feelings can help us make sense of our challenges and experiences in a way that supports psychological well-being. For example, if I have behaved badly towards my good friend, the feelings of guilt and sadness might motivate me to apologize and ask for forgiveness. The rebuilding of a broken relationship can be a lift to one’s mental well-being. In trying to experience happiness, we should remember that seeking for happiness as an end in itself can be self-defeating, and does not necessarily lead to better health. After all, one will surely experience setbacks and conflicts in life. Instead, learning to cope with negative emotions with a realistic positive attitude is key to a person’s good health. 32. What’s the writer’s opinion in this passage? A. Negative thinking can be dangerous. B. Staying happy can bring good health. C. Unpleasant feelings cannot be beneficial. D. Happiness cannot ensure one’s good health. 33. When can positive thinking be dangerous according to the passage? A. When we use it with a realistic attitude to solve problems. B. When we focus on it as an only determinant of happy life. C. When we think it one of the necessary factor for good health. D. When we realize it may rob us of the ability to understand others. 34. How can unpleasant feelings be beneficial to a person’s well-being? A. They rebuild a broken relationship. B. They lead to self-reflection and personal growth. C. They help keep the problems and challenges away. D. They prevent long-term negative effects on mental health. 35. Which of the following has the similar meaning of “an end in itself”? A. An ultimate goal. B. An individual plan. C. A final decision. D. A great start. 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。 How to Write Any High School Essay Writing an essay is an important basic skill that you will need to succeed in high school, college, and beyond.

But a shift in educational policies (政策), with an emphasis on academics, had reduced my choir to a mere 32 students. My lead singers had graduated or been forced to drop music classes, leaving me with inexperienced kids who couldn’t read music and could sing only a simple melody (曲子). This year’s singing contest would be held in seven months. Compared to other school choirs, the Madison choir with 75 members, King School with 125 students and etc., ours was little in size. One day, a student asked eagerly, “What will we be singing for contest this year?” I feared this moment. “Maybe we’ll skip the contest,” I suggested. “No! We can make it!” the kids screamed. “I’ll have to think about it,” I said, hoping their enthusiasm would die off soon. But that didn’t happen. Every day they begged and insisted. However, I couldn’t tell them they weren’t good enough as I had to protect their self-esteem (自尊). My efforts to discourage their eagerness, by showing them a difficult piece of music from the contest list, simply ended with, “It’s okay, Mrs. Pliszka, we’ll get it.” I struggled to make a decision. If I destroyed their hope, would I destroy their spirit? I wasn’t afraid of hard work, and I enjoyed a challenge. But I wasn’t a miracle (奇迹) worker. So I considered this dilemma. Finally, one morning I stomped into class. “From now on, be in your seats with your music folders on the desk when the bell rings, and sit at attention, ready for warm-ups the instant I’m ready to begin. When I’m working with one section, there will be no talking from the others. You will listen, and you will learn. You will work harder. If all these rules are obeyed, we will be entering the contest. To achieve our big dream, …” The rest of my sentence was lost in shouts of delight and applause. I was certain they would fail to keep this promise, and no one would have to be embarrassed. 注意： 1. 所写短文的词数应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第11页（共12页） 试题 第12页（共12页） 试题 第9页（共12页） 试题 第10页（共12页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
