To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities. Maui vs. St. Lucia Maui, Hawaii: $4,259 St. Lucia: $3,650 If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species particularly. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot. Barcelona vs. Mexico City Barcelona, Spain: $3,819 Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319 Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine—but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts(文物)housed inside it. Athens vs. Cuzco Athens, Greece: $3,910 Cuzco, Peru: $3,042 Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality? Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million of visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August. 1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui? A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike. C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity. 2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum? A. It has a history of over 100 years. B. It is made of wood and stone. C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City. D. It is as impressive as its collections. 3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August? A. Tickets must be booked early. B. Visiting time is restricted. C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins. D. Hotel prices drop significantly. 【答案】1. D 2. D 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。本文通过对比热门高价旅游城市与性价比更高的替代目的地，为读者提供“避开人潮、节省开支”的旅行建议。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。 根据Maui vs. St. Lucia部分对 St. Lucia 的描述“Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species particularly. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.(探索自然保护区，尤其可以观察到180多种鸟类。你甚至可能看到罕见的圣卢西亚鹦鹉。)”可知，圣卢西亚拥有独特而丰富的鸟类多样性，而这一点并未提及在 Maui 中存在。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。 根据Barcelona vs. Mexico City部分对 National Anthropology Museum 的描述“This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts housed inside it.(这座巨大的混凝土建筑建于20世纪60年代，与世界上最大的墨西哥古文物收藏一样令人惊叹。)”可知，博物馆本身的建筑令人震撼，其震撼程度与馆内珍藏的文物不相上下。故选D项。 3题详解】 推理判断题。 根据Athens vs. Cuzco部分对 Cuzco 的描述“You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.(你需要提前计划，才能看到它神奇的山峰：每日门票有限，往往会售罄，尤其是在7月和8月的旺季。)”可推断，在八月这一旅游高峰期，门票供不应求，必须提前预订。故选A项。 B I often reflect on my father’s influence through his crossword puzzles (字谜游戏). Appa, my father, once sadly mentioned wishing he had put money to buy homes for his children. Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication. Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle. “Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories. He would pause puzzles to play with his grandchildren or listen to their stories. Influenced by his love for words, I built my career writing stories for nonprofit, valuing passion over pay. When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side. Appa would read aloud to me, training my love for language. By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.” You see, a crossword is complete and brings joy — with only so many words, each resting on connections with others. And so now I take assignments, some well-paid, some not, but together, most importantly, they fill me with joy. That is why I remain committed to this career. 4. What did Appa’s yellow pencils symbolize for the writer? A. His unspoken financial regrets. B. His desire for his kids to succeed. C. His commitment to simple joys. D. His perseverance against difficulty. 5. Why did Appa read newspapers thoroughly? A. To improve his writing skills. B. To teach his children language. C. To keep up with the latest news. D. To seek solutions for word puzzles. 6. How did the author feel when starting her writing career? A. Conflicted but recognised. B. Regretful but reflective. C. Indifferent to the feedback. D. Motivated to change jobs. 7. What does the author intend to convey through his story? A. Fortune plays an important role in life. B. Value lies in inner passion and content. C. Career choice prioritizes personal taste. D. Hard work finally leads to great success. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者父亲通过字谜游戏影响了作者，他热爱文字、看重简单快乐。作者从事写作，虽收入低但坚守热爱，明白财富不等于幸福，快乐源于热爱。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication.( 然而，当他去世时，他留给我一盒破旧但功能正常的黄色铅笔，这是他每天用来解决填字游戏的工具。他们让我了解了他默默奉献的精神)”以及第二段中““Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories.(“啊，明白了。”他会惊呼，他的快乐不是来自财富，而是来自简单的胜利)”可推知，黄色铅笔对作者来说象征着父亲对简单快乐的执着。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle.( Appa过去常常把当天的报纸从头到尾读一遍，不是为了看新闻，而是为了找一些被遗忘的单词来做填字游戏)”可知，父亲通读报纸不是为了新闻，而是为了寻找字谜中遗忘的单词，也就是为字谜寻找答案。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side.( 当朋友们批评我收入低时，我犹豫了。我拿起他的一支黄色铅笔。尽管受到伤害，但我还是从网上读者的赞美中找到了安慰，这反映了Appa对光明一面的关注)”可推知，作者在开始写作生涯时感到犹豫，同时又感到被认可。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第四段中“By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.”(Appa让我认识到语言的力量，指引着我的人生使命，我从未质疑过这个目标，也没有觉得有必要更聪明地探索它，因为重要的是我们共同的激情。虽然满足了许多年，但我偶尔会感到内心的不平衡。在这种时候，Appa会提醒我：“钱不是万能的，更多的财富并不意味着更大的幸福。”)”可知，作者通过讲述父亲热爱解字谜，从简单胜利中获得快乐，以及自己受父亲影响从事写作职业的经历，表达了价值在于内心的热情和满足。故选B项。 C Have you ever felt unexpectedly calm walking barefoot on grass or noticed stress fade while standing in the ocean? These experiences may involve “ground”, the practice of direct physical contact with the earth’s surface. Our ancestors were naturally interwoven with the earth, but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it. Today, social media promotes grounding mats and sheets as sleep and health aids, but does science back these claims? The human body is conductive exchanging electricity with the earth and artificial sources. Grounding supporters claim that reconnecting with the earth’s subtle electric charge (微电荷) offers physical and mental benefits, though evidence remains limited. Grounding products, e. g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure. A 2022 study found 30- minute daily grounding sessions(5 times a week)improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression. These results suggest mixed effects, with some improvements possibly due to psychological effect or daily habit. Grounding is also marketed for reducing pain and inflammation (炎症). A 2025 study assigned 60 participants to use either a grounding mat or an inactive mat that doesn’t work for 31 days. While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness. However, long- term impacts on fitness or recovery remain unclear. Critics note most studies are small- scale, while supporters see grounding as a low- risk additional method. Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements. 8. What does the underlined word “interwoven” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Occupational. B. Connected. C. Explored. D. Attracted. 9. What is the purpose of grounding products in paragraph 2? A. To block artificial electricity. B. To replace medical treatments. C. To copy earth contact indoors. D. To measure body conductivity. 10. What do the 2022 and 2025 grounding studies agree on? A. Showing limited sleep benefits. B. Changing the level of anxiety. C. Confirming ever-claimed effects. D. Demonstrating pain reduction. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward grounding products? A. Critically opposed. B. Fairly objective. C. Strongly supportive. D. Seemingly uninterested. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“接地”（与地球直接接触），提及相关产品，通过研究说明其对睡眠等益处有限，指出户外接地免费，需更多研究证实效果。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it(但现代生活——通过房屋、道路和鞋子等——已经将它与大自然隔绝了开来)”可知，but表示转折，说明interwoven与后文disconnected形成对比，意为“联系的”，故划线词意思是“联系”。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Grounding products, e. g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure.(接地产品，例如脚垫、床单等，可以通过将它们与家庭的电气接地端子相连来实现这种接地方式，这样可以将人体与大地的电荷连接起来，同时避免暴露在户外环境中)”可知，第二段中提及“接地”的目的是为了在室内模拟与地球的接触。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“A 2022 study found 30-minute daily grounding sessions(5 times a week)improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression.( 2022年的一项研究发现，每天进行30分钟的接地练习（每周5次），能略微改善阿尔茨海默病患者的睡眠状况，但对焦虑或抑郁状况并无影响)”以及“While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness.(虽然接地组平均睡眠时间稍长，但两组在睡眠质量、压力和白天困倦程度方面的改善程度相似)”可知，2022年和2025年的睡眠研究结果都表明睡眠效果有限。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements. (接地产品的价格从30美元到300多美元不等，但户外接地（比如赤脚行走）是免费的。虽然目前没有研究显示会有危害，但那些长期存在睡眠问题的人应该先咨询医生。仅户外光照就能帮助调节生物钟和改善情绪，这可能比昂贵的工具更有作用。简而言之，接地是一个非常有趣的概念，但还需要更多的研究来证实其除社交媒体宣传之外的其他益处)”可知，作者既介绍了接地产品的价格，也指出证据有限、需更多研究，同时提到户外接地的优势，推测作者对接地产品态度客观中立，故选B。 D In recent years, fake news has become a hot topic in both news reports and scientific studies. A paper published in Science by David Lazer and 15 other researchers studies fake news. They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way. These researchers come from fields like computer science, psychology, and law. Fake news spreads for many reasons. On one hand, technology advancement allows anyone to share information online. Social media bots, which are programmed to intimate real persons, can spread false stories quickly, even if they’re not true. On the other hand, we get too much information every day. It’s hard for people, even fact-checkers, to have enough time to tell real news and fake news apart before it spreads widely. Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact. This creates echo chambers (回音室) where people only see one side of things. Psychological research provides insights into combating fake news. Studies demonstrate that logical thinking ability significantly improves fake news detection. One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online. But we still don’t know if fake news can change people’s beliefs or what other unknown effects. In the face of fake news spread via social media, experts advise media consumers to be more reflective. Don’t believe everything you read, but consider the possibility that it’s false. We need to build communication rules where challenging others is acceptable without turning conversations into rude arguments — for example, disagreeing politely can spare presenters from public embarrassment. In the long run, truth defines the mainstream. But we need to act quickly. A society that values true information can stay strong and avoid the bad effects of fake news. 12. How do researchers define fake news according to the passage? A. Messages hard to believe. B. News from unchecked sources. C. Stories shared individually. D. False information appearing real. 13. Why do mass media often present what viewers want to hear? A. To meet their preferences. B. To challenge existing beliefs. C. To check the facts strictly. D. To display various opinions. 14. What effect does logical thinking have on people’s response to fake news? A. Preventing fake news being detected. B. Making people quickly shift their opinions. C. Lowering the chance of sharing false stories. D. Expanding the amount of news people read. 15. Which is the best title of the passage? A. The Impact of Technology on News. B. Combating False News in the Digital Age. C. The Role of Social Media in Information Spread. D. The Benefit of Logical Thinking in Media Literacy. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章探讨假新闻，介绍其定义、传播原因，指出逻辑思维有助识别，建议人们反思、建立良好沟通规则，强调重视真实信息的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way.(他们表示，假新闻指的是那些看似是真实新闻但其实并非以正确方式制作出来的虚假信息)”可知，研究人员对“假新闻”的定义是假冒的、看似真实的信息。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact.(此外，人们通常会选择与自己观点和喜好相符的新闻来源。因此，大众媒体往往会呈现其受众想听的内容，而这些内容实际上大多未经核实)”可知，大众媒体常常会呈现观众想要听到的内容是为了满足他们的偏好。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Studies demonstrate that logical thinking ability significantly improves fake news detection. One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online.(研究表明，逻辑思维能力能显著提高对假新闻的识别能力。一项研究发现，具有逻辑思维能力的人在网上分享虚假信息的可能性更低)”可知，逻辑思维会降低传播虚假故事的可能性。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In recent years, fake news has become a hot topic in both news reports and scientific studies. A paper published in Science by David Lazer and 15 other researchers studies fake news. They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way. These researchers come from fields like computer science, psychology, and law.(近年来，假新闻在新闻报道和科学研究中都成为了热门话题。大卫·莱泽及其15名研究者在《科学》杂志上发表的一篇论文探讨了假新闻。他们指出，假新闻是看似真实但并非以正确方式制作出来的虚假信息。这些研究人员来自计算机科学、心理学和法律等不同领域)”结合文章探讨假新闻，介绍其定义、传播原因，指出逻辑思维有助识别，建议人们反思、建立良好沟通规则，强调重视真实信息的重要性。可知，B选项“在数字时代对抗假新闻”最符合文章标题。故选B。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A first impression can have a huge impact.

Students were busy practicing in groups, but I noticed one boy sitting alone in the corner of the classroom. It was Tim, a shy and quiet student who rarely spoke in class. I walked over and asked why he wasn’t joining the others. He looked down at his hands and said softly, “I…I can’t remember the lines well. The others don’t want me in their group.” His face turned red as he spoke. I remembered how hard Tim had worked. Every afternoon, I’d seen him staying late to practice. Sometimes he read his lines in the empty classroom; sometimes he watched other students perform with hungry eyes. During lunch break, I found the drama teacher. “Tim really wants to be part of this,” I said. The teacher shook his head. “I know, but he freezes on stage. The other kids worry he’ll ruin their performance.” Entering the classroom, I heard a voice from the stage. It was Tim, standing alone under the bright lights. His hands shook as he held the script(剧本), but his voice grew stronger with each line. It wasn’t perfect—he missed some words and spoke too fast—but he kept going. The classroom door creaked(嘎吱)open. One by one, students came in and listened. When Tim finished, there was silence. Then a slow clap started from the back. Soon, the whole class was applauding. The next day, something amazing happened. I saw Tim practicing with a small group. Emily, the girl who had been cold to him was helping him with his lines. “You just need to slow down,” she said patiently. Tim nodded eagerly, his eyes shining. On the day of the competition Tim stood with his group backstage, each of whom gave me a high five. I patted Tim on the shoulder and whispered, “You’re the best.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为120个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Music starting, Tim and his group stepped onto the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Music starting, Tim and his group stepped onto the stage. Tim took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the audience. As the lines flowed from his mouth, his voice was steady and confident. Gone were the nervous shakes and the rushed words. He was fully absorbed in the performance, interacting perfectly with his group members. The audience was drawn in, their eyes following every movement. When the performance ended, the hall erupted in thunderous applause. Tim’s face was beaming with pride. He had not only overcome his fears but also proved himself to everyone, showing that with determination and support, anyone could shine on stage. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述学校戏剧比赛即将来临，蒂姆因记不住台词且上台会紧张，一开始不被小组接纳。但他努力练习，在作者向戏剧老师反映情况后，同学们看到了他的努力并接纳了他，比赛当天蒂姆和小组成员一起站在了后台。 【详解】1.段落续写： 由首句内容“音乐响起，蒂姆和他的团队走上了舞台。”可知，第一段可描写蒂姆和小组上台表演的过程及结果。着重描写蒂姆克服紧张，自信表演，与小组成员配合默契，最终获得观众热烈掌声，突出他的成功转变与成长 2.续写线索：上台——克服紧张自信表演——表演结束获掌声——证明自己收获自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①专注于：be absorbed in /concentrate on ②爆发：erupt /burst out ③克服：overcome /get over 情绪类： ①自信的： confident /assured ②紧张的：nervous/tense 【点睛】【高分句型 1】As the lines flowed from his mouth, his voice was steady and confident.（运用了 as 引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型 2】He had not only overcome his fears but also proved himself to everyone, showing that with determination and support, anyone could shine on stage.（运用了 not only...but also... 并列结构、现在分词作状语以及that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高一英语试题 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试题卷指定位置上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每个小题答案后，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，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．What does the man intend to do?

To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities. Maui vs. St. Lucia Maui, Hawaii: $4,259 St. Lucia: $3,650 If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species particularly. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot. Barcelona vs. Mexico City Barcelona, Spain: $3,819 Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319 Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine—but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts(文物)housed inside it. Athens vs. Cuzco Athens, Greece: $3,910 Cuzco, Peru: $3,042 Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality? Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million of visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August. 1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui? A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike. C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity. 2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum? A It has a history of over 100 years. B. It is made of wood and stone. C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City. D. It is as impressive as its collections. 3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August? A. Tickets must be booked early. B. Visiting time is restricted. C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins. D. Hotel prices drop significantly. B I often reflect on my father’s influence through his crossword puzzles (字谜游戏). Appa, my father, once sadly mentioned wishing he had put money to buy homes for his children. Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication. Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle. “Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories. He would pause puzzles to play with his grandchildren or listen to their stories. Influenced by his love for words, I built my career writing stories for nonprofit, valuing passion over pay. When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side. Appa would read aloud to me, training my love for language. By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.” You see a crossword is complete and brings joy — with only so many words, each resting on connections with others. And so now I take assignments, some well-paid, some not, but together, most importantly, they fill me with joy. That is why I remain committed to this career. 4. What did Appa’s yellow pencils symbolize for the writer? A. His unspoken financial regrets. B. His desire for his kids to succeed. C. His commitment to simple joys. D. His perseverance against difficulty. 5. Why did Appa read newspapers thoroughly? A. To improve his writing skills. B. To teach his children language. C. To keep up with the latest news. D. To seek solutions for word puzzles. 6. How did the author feel when starting her writing career? A. Conflicted but recognised. B. Regretful but reflective. C. Indifferent to the feedback. D. Motivated to change jobs. 7. What does the author intend to convey through his story? A. Fortune plays an important role in life. B. Value lies in inner passion and content. C. Career choice prioritizes personal taste. D. Hard work finally leads to great success. C Have you ever felt unexpectedly calm walking barefoot on grass or noticed stress fade while standing in the ocean? These experiences may involve “ground”, the practice of direct physical contact with the earth’s surface. Our ancestors were naturally interwoven with the earth, but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it. Today, social media promotes grounding mats and sheets as sleep and health aids, but does science back these claims? The human body is conductive, exchanging electricity with the earth and artificial sources. Grounding supporters claim that reconnecting with the earth’s subtle electric charge (微电荷) offers physical and mental benefits, though evidence remains limited. Grounding products, e. g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure. A 2022 study found 30- minute daily grounding sessions(5 times a week)improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression. These results suggest mixed effects, with some improvements possibly due to psychological effect or daily habit. Grounding is also marketed for reducing pain and inflammation (炎症). A 2025 study assigned 60 participants to use either a grounding mat or an inactive mat that doesn’t work for 31 days. While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness. However, long- term impacts on fitness or recovery remain unclear. Critics note most studies are small- scale, while supporters see grounding as a low- risk additional method. Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements. 8. What does the underlined word “interwoven” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Occupational. B. Connected. C. Explored. D. Attracted. 9. What is the purpose of grounding products in paragraph 2? A. To block artificial electricity. B. To replace medical treatments. C. To copy earth contact indoors. D. To measure body conductivity. 10. What do the 2022 and 2025 grounding studies agree on? A. Showing limited sleep benefits. B. Changing the level of anxiety. C. Confirming ever-claimed effects. D. Demonstrating pain reduction. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward grounding products? A. Critically opposed. B. Fairly objective. C. Strongly supportive. D. Seemingly uninterested. D In recent years, fake news has become a hot topic in both news reports and scientific studies. A paper published in Science by David Lazer and 15 other researchers studies fake news. They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way. These researchers come from fields like computer science, psychology, and law. Fake news spreads for many reasons. On one hand, technology advancement allows anyone to share information online. Social media bots, which are programmed to intimate real persons, can spread false stories quickly, even if they’re not true. On the other hand, we get too much information every day. It’s hard for people, even fact-checkers, to have enough time to tell real news and fake news apart before it spreads widely. Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact. This creates echo chambers (回音室) where people only see one side of things. Psychological research provides insights into combating fake news. Studies demonstrate that logical thinking ability significantly improves fake news detection. One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online. But we still don’t know if fake news can change people’s beliefs or what other unknown effects. In the face of fake news spread via social media, experts advise media consumers to be more reflective. Don’t believe everything you read, but consider the possibility that it’s false. We need to build communication rules where challenging others is acceptable without turning conversations into rude arguments — for example, disagreeing politely can spare presenters from public embarrassment. In the long run, truth defines the mainstream. But we need to act quickly. A society that values true information can stay strong and avoid the bad effects of fake news. 12. How do researchers define fake news according to the passage? A. Messages hard to believe. B. News from unchecked sources. C. Stories shared individually. D. False information appearing real. 13. Why do mass media often present what viewers want to hear? A. To meet their preferences. B. To challenge existing beliefs. C. To check the facts strictly. D. To display various opinions. 14. What effect does logical thinking have on people’s response to fake news? A. Preventing fake news being detected. B. Making people quickly shift their opinions. C. Lowering the chance of sharing false stories. D. Expanding the amount of news people read. 15. Which is the best title of the passage? A. The Impact of Technology on News. B. Combating False News in the Digital Age. C. The Role of Social Media in Information Spread. D. The Benefit of Logical Thinking in Media Literacy. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A first impression can have a huge impact.

Students were busy practicing in groups, but I noticed one boy sitting alone in the corner of the classroom. It was Tim, a shy and quiet student who rarely spoke in class. I walked over and asked why he wasn’t joining the others. He looked down at his hands and said softly, “I…I can’t remember the lines well. The others don’t want me in their group.” His face turned red as he spoke. I remembered how hard Tim had worked. Every afternoon, I’d seen him staying late to practice. Sometimes he read his lines in the empty classroom; sometimes he watched other students perform with hungry eyes. During lunch break, I found the drama teacher. “Tim really wants to be part of this,” I said. The teacher shook his head. “I know, but he freezes on stage. The other kids worry he’ll ruin their performance.” Entering the classroom, I heard a voice from the stage. It was Tim, standing alone under the bright lights. His hands shook as he held the script(剧本), but his voice grew stronger with each line. It wasn’t perfect—he missed some words and spoke too fast—but he kept going. The classroom door creaked(嘎吱)open. One by one, students came in and listened. When Tim finished, there was silence. Then a slow clap started from the back. Soon, the whole class was applauding. The next day, something amazing happened. I saw Tim practicing with a small group. Emily, the girl who had been cold to him was helping him with his lines. “You just need to slow down,” she said patiently. Tim nodded eagerly, his eyes shining. On the day of the competition, Tim stood with his group backstage, each of whom gave me a high five. I patted Tim on the shoulder and whispered, “You’re the best.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为120个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Music starting, Tim and his group stepped onto the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
