The rescue began with a call from a group of people visiting the area to photograph the famous Heber Wild Horses. They contacted a local group for advice on the best places to see the horses. One suggested location had a dirt water tank that had been drying out, creating a dangerous mud area. Shortly after noon, an emergency message came, “Need help. Horses are trapped in mud and sinking!” Without hesitation, volunteers rushed into action, gathering ropes and asking neighbors for help. When they arrived, a couple with a small vehicle and ropes were already working with the photographers. They had successfully freed the young horse and turned their focus to the mother. Over the course of more than an hour, seven individuals worked hard to save the tired mother horse. The baby horse waited anxiously nearby, calling to her mother. The team worked carefully, letting the mother horse rest between attempts to avoid injury. At first, the only option was to place the rope around the mother horse’s neck, but the team tied it skillfully to prevent her from choking (窒息). Once the mother horse gained some strength to struggle on her own, the team pulled gently, later managing to reposition the rope around her haunches (腰腿)for a safer and more effective rescue. Finally, after non-stop teamwork, the mother horse was pulled free. Although shaky on her feet, she managed to stand and rejoin her baby. Together, they walked into the forest — safe at last. The local group shared their deep gratitude for the teamwork that made the rescue possible. “I am so grateful for what you all did and amazed by the communication, cooperation, and determination in this rescue,” the group wrote. The group has since told the U. S. Forest Service about the dangerous mud hole to prevent future problems. 4. Who first reported the emergency? A. The U. S. Forest Service. B. The local volunteers. C. Some neighboring residents. D. Some photographers. 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The efforts to save the mother horse. B. Teamwork and gratitude in the rescue. C. Struggle and challenges the horses met. D. The baby horse anxiously calling for help. 6. Which of the following can best describe the rescue team? A. Anxious and helpless. B. Responsive and cooperative. C. Talkative and friendly. D. Frightened and inexperienced 7. What can be the best title for the text? A. Wild Horses Facing Growing Threat in Arizona B. A Mother Horse’s Brave Struggle in a Mud Trap C. A Risky Rescue of Horses Trapped in Mud D. The Connection Between Photographers and Wild Horses 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了人们合力营救陷在泥潭中的小马驹和母马的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The rescue began with a call from a group of people visiting the area to photograph the famous Heber Wild Horses.(救援行动始于一群人的求助电话 —— 他们当时正在该地区游览，目的是拍摄著名的赫伯野马)”可知，是一群摄影者首先报道这起紧急事件的。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Over the course of more than an hour, seven individuals worked hard to save the tired mother horse.(在一个多小时的时间里，七个人全力救助这匹疲惫的母马)”以及at first，once，finally等词可知，本段主要讲述人们救母马的努力。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Without hesitation, volunteers rushed into action, gathering ropes and asking neighbors for help. (志愿者们毫不犹豫地立刻行动起来，一边收集绳索，一边向邻居们求助)”和最后一段中““I am so grateful for what you all did and amazed by the communication, cooperation, and determination in this rescue,” the group wrote. (“我对你们所有人的付出满怀感激，也为这次救援行动中展现出的沟通、协作与决心感到震撼。” 该团体如是写道)”可知，救援队伍是积极响应并合作的。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段“A heart-stopping rescue mission unfolded in Heber-Overgaard, Arizona, when a mother horse and her baby became trapped in a drying mud hole.(在亚利桑那州赫伯-奥弗加德地区，一场惊心动魄的救援行动展开了 —— 当时一匹母马和它的幼崽被困在了一个逐渐干涸的泥坑里)”可知，文章主要讲述了人们合力拯救陷在泥潭中的小马驹和母马的故事。因此C项“A Risky Rescue of Horses Trapped in Mud(马匹深陷泥潭：一场惊险的救援)”可以作为本文最佳标题。故选C。 C Zero or light soft drinks contain no or less sugar, so it naturally seems reasonable for people to think that, in addition to your health, this is also a better choice for your teeth, and thus they are becoming widely accepted. But is this actually the case? Zero or light soft drinks contain little sugar, but they are not necessarily safer for your teeth. Experts stress that although these soft drinks do not have sugar that causes tooth damage, they often contain acids (酸) that can attack the surface of your teeth. The acidity in these drinks can cause similar damage to sugar-sweetened soft drinks. Although changing to zero or light soft drinks reduces sugar intake, it does not eliminate its risk to your teeth. Acid erosion (腐蚀) is the wearing down of tooth surface by the action of acids, and soft drinks speed up this process. As tooth surface can no longer recover, it becomes thinner and weaker. Over time, this can lead to sensitivity, colour change and, in extreme cases, exposed tooth nerves. For example, the pH level in your mouth drops after drinking a can of soft drink due to its high acidity. Low pH promotes demineralization (脱矿) of your tooth surface, which means that necessary minerals are pulled out of the surface, making your teeth weaker to damage. While zero or light soft drinks contain no sugar and cause fewer holes of the teeth, they are still harmful to your teeth. Therefore, it is wise not to have them too much. Also, to limit damage to your teeth, you can clean your mouth with water after drinking to wash away acids, but wait at least 30 minutes before brushing — doing it right away can actually further damage your tooth surface. Use a straw (吸管) to limit direct contact of the drink with your teeth. The tips also apply when drinking regular sodas with sugar. 8. Why are zero or light soft drinks becoming popular? A. They are thought healthier. B. They can energize people. C. They have richer tastes. D. They are free of acids. 9. What does the underlined word “eliminate” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Increase. B. Spread. C. Remove. D. Foresee. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How acids form in zero or light soft drinks. B. Measures to recover teeth from acid erosion. C. Effects that acids have on zero or light soft drinks. D. How zero or light soft drinks thin the tooth surface. 11. What is one way to reduce the harm of zero or light soft drinks to teeth? A. Turning to a straw to limit soft drinks intake. B. Avoiding immediate brushing after drinking. C. Drinking more soft drinks to strengthen teeth. D. Waiting for half an hour to wash after drinking. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了零卡或轻量软饮因低糖受认可，但含酸会腐蚀牙齿，造成损伤，故不宜多喝，还需注意饮用后护牙方法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Zero or light soft drinks contain no or less sugar, so it naturally seems reasonable for people to think that, in addition to your health, this is also a better choice for your teeth, and thus they are becoming widely accepted. But is this actually the case? (零糖或低糖软饮料不含或含较少的糖分，因此人们自然而然会认为，除了对健康有益之外，这对牙齿也有好处，所以它们正逐渐被人们所接受。但实际情况真的是这样吗？)”可知，无糖或低糖的软饮料开始流行起来是因为人们认为它们更健康。故选A。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Although changing to zero or light soft drinks reduces sugar intake (尽管改喝零糖或低糖软饮料能减少糖分摄入)”以及后文“its risk to your teeth (对牙齿的危害)”可知，although表示转折关系，说明尽管改喝零糖或低糖软饮料能减少糖分摄入，但这并不能去除其对牙齿的潜在危害。故划线词意思是“去除”。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Acid erosion (腐蚀) is the wearing down of tooth surface by the action of acids, and soft drinks speed up this process. As tooth surface can no longer recover, it becomes thinner and weaker. Over time, this can lead to sensitivity, colour change and, in extreme cases, exposed tooth nerves. For example, the pH level in your mouth drops after drinking a can of soft drink due to its high acidity. Low pH promotes demineralization (脱矿) of your tooth surface, which means that necessary minerals are pulled out of the surface, making your teeth weaker to damage. (腐蚀是指牙齿表面因酸的作用而遭到磨损，而软饮料会加速这一过程。由于牙齿表面无法恢复原状，它会变得越来越薄且脆弱。随着时间的推移，这可能会导致牙齿敏感、颜色变化，在极端情况下，还会使牙齿神经暴露在外。例如，喝完一罐软饮料后，口腔中的 pH 值会因酸性过高而下降，因为其高酸性会促进牙齿表面的脱矿，这意味着牙齿表面的必要矿物质会被吸出，从而使牙齿更容易受到损害。)”可知，第三段主要讲了零糖或低糖饮料如何使牙齿表面变薄。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Also, to limit damage to your teeth, you can clean your mouth with water after drinking to wash away acids, but wait at least 30 minutes before brushing — doing it right away can actually further damage your tooth surface. (此外，为了减少对牙齿的损害，您可以饮用后用清水漱口以清除酸性物质，但至少要等待30分钟再刷牙——立即刷牙反而可能会进一步损害牙齿表面。)”可知，减少饮用无糖或低糖饮料对牙齿损害的一种方法是饮后不要立即刷牙。故选B。 D Chimpanzees (黑猩猩)live in big, social societies and their main way to communicate is through making sounds and gestures such as raising their arms and touching their mouths. Researchers have also found chimpanzees drum (连续敲击)on the roots of trees in the wild, which can be heard kilometers away, but whether this was a form of communication was unclear. To better understand how chimpanzees use drumming, Catherine Hobaiter, a scientist at the University of St Andrews, and her team looked at two species — eastern chimpanzees living in East Africa and western chimpanzees in West Africa. They found that western chimpanzees drum with regular rhythms (节律)like the ticking of a clock while eastern chimpanzees’ drumming changes between short and long silences after each hit. The scientists think these differences could be a result of the fact that eastern chimpanzees live in big groups and tend to be more competitive with their neighbors, and western chimpanzees live in smaller groups with members living in an equal way. In a second study, Marc Naguib, a biologist at Wageningen University & Research, and his team focused on another unusual chimpanzee behavior: using stones to drum on tree trunks (树干). Stone-assisted drumming also differed from regular drumming in some ways: Before throwing stones, chimpanzees were more likely to make sounds and less likely to move their bodies from side to side. “I think we’re just scratching at the surface,” Hobaiter says. “Drumming is really a rich behavior that’s going to tell us so much more about what it means to be a chimpanzee.” In any case, the species and cultural differences could help the conservation efforts of chimpanzees’ habitats. In recent years, researchers have pushed to include animal culture in conservation strategy. “You need these diverse populations to maintain the richness of a species,” Naguib says. “But if you lose a culture, like humans, you won’t get it back.” 12. How does western chimpanzees’ drumming differ from that of eastern chimpanzees? A. Western chimpanzees drum with fixed beats. B. Western chimpanzees drum faster and louder. C. Western chimpanzees create changeable rhythms. D. Western chimpanzees use stones when drumming. 13. What might be the reason for the drumming differences between the two species? A. The varying sizes of tree roots. B. Their different intelligence levels. C. The influence of human activities. D. Their separate social structures. 14. What does Hobaiter think of the current studies about chimpanzees’ drumming? A. Misleading. B. Plentiful. C. Limited. D. Worthless. 15. What does the last paragraph focus on about preserving chimpanzee culture? A. Its strategies. B. Its significance. C. Its operations. D. Its definition. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍科学家研发现究黑猩猩敲击进行交流的方式因社会结构不同而不同，指出了文化差异对保护的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They found that western chimpanzees drum with regular rhythms (节律) like the ticking of a clock while eastern chimpanzees’ drumming changes between short and long silences after each hit.(他们发现，西部黑猩猩击鼓时节奏规律，如同钟表滴答作响；而东部黑猩猩击鼓后，每次敲击之间的停顿时长会在短促与悠长之间交替变化)”可知，与东部黑猩猩相比，西部黑猩猩的敲击有固定的节奏。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The scientists think these differences could be a result of the fact that eastern chimpanzees live in big groups and tend to be more competitive with their neighbors, and western chimpanzees live in smaller groups with members living in an equal way.(科学家们认为，这些差异可能源于以下事实：东部黑猩猩生活在大型群体中，且往往会与相邻群体展开更激烈的竞争；而西部黑猩猩则生活在小型群体里，群体成员间关系平等)”可知，两个种群之间敲击的不同是因为它们各自的社会结构。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““I think we’re just scratching at the surface,” Hobaiter says. (“我认为我们目前只是触及了表面，” 霍拜特说)”推知，霍拜特认为目前的研究还不够充分，即是有限的。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段““You need these diverse populations to maintain the richness of a species,” Naguib says. “But if you lose a culture, like humans, you won’t get it back.”( 纳吉布表示，“你需要这些具有多样性的种群来维持一个物种的丰富性。但就像人类社会一样，一旦一种文化消失，就再也找不回来了。”)”可知，最后一段聚焦于保护黑猩猩文化的重要性上。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 Be Outgoing Some people are naturally outgoing, but other people have to practice to become outgoing. If you want to become outgoing, there are several strategies that you can use. ____16____ No matter how obvious it may sound, it’s helpful to actually realize that outgoing people didn’t go straight from the womb (子宫) to parties. They had years of practice in safer environments: speaking to their family members, joking with their classmates, and so on. Search for a common interest. ____17____ In order to find out what you can talk about, you may have to seek for things you have in common. If you work together or have mutual friends or have anything that links you together, it should be a bit easier. Know that your flaws (缺点) can turn into benefits. A common misconception is that people will like you more if you become “better”. ____18____ People don’t like hanging out with those perfectionists. Instead of trying to hide or kill your flaws, know that a weak paycheck, a slight belly, or spending hours watching TV only makes you more human and likable. Examine your body language. Your nonverbal communication, such as body language and eye contact, can say as much about you as your actual words. ____19____ People judge others as attractive, likeable, competent, trustworthy, or aggressive in less than a second, so you may have only 1/10 of a second to make a first impression. Be an active listener. When you’re listening to someone, show them that you’re engaged in the conversation. Focus on what they’re saying. Look at them while they speak. Avoid looking over the person’s head or at another area of the room for more than a few seconds. ____20____ A. Start off small. B. Take yourself less seriously. C. This indicates that you’re bored or not paying attention. D. It can send a message that you want to communicate with others. E. The way that you hold your body sends messages about you to others. F. The truth is that there is no relationship between perfection and making real friends. G. First conversations between people are all about what the two parties have in common. 【答案】16. A 17. G 18. F 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了变得外向的方法：从小处开始练习，寻找共同兴趣，将缺点转化为优势，注意肢体语言，以及做积极的倾听者。 【16题详解】 根据后文“No matter how obvious it may sound, it’s helpful to actually realize that outgoing people didn’t go straight from the womb (子宫) to parties. They had years of practice in safer environments: speaking to their family members, joking with their classmates, and so on.(无论这听起来多么显而易见，但真正认识到这一点还是很有帮助的：外向的人并非直接从出生就投身于各种聚会之中。他们在更安全的环境中进行了多年的锻炼：与家人交流、与同学开玩笑等等)”可知，本段指出外向的人是在安全环境中经过多年练习（如与家人交流、和同学开玩笑）逐渐形成的，强调从“小处开始”练习，与“Start off small”呼应，故A选项“从简单的做起”符合语境。故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Search for a common interest.(寻找共同的兴趣爱好)”可知，本段主题是“寻找共同兴趣”，本句承接上文，说明寻找共同兴趣的原因。故G选项“人与人之间的初次交流都是关于双方的共同点”符合语境。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Know that your flaws (缺点) can turn into benefits. A common misconception is that people will like you more if you become “better”.(要知道，你的缺点也可能转化为优势。一个常见的错误观念是，人们会因为你变得“更好”而更喜欢你)”以及后文“People don’t like hanging out with those perfectionists. Instead of trying to hide or kill your flaws, know that a weak paycheck, a slight belly, or spending hours watching TV only makes you more human and likable.(人们不喜欢与那些完美主义者相处。与其试图掩盖或消除自身的缺点，不如明白这样一个道理：一份微薄的薪水、微微的赘肉，或者花数小时看电视，这些都只会让你变得更加真实、更讨人喜欢)”可知，前文提到“人们认为变优秀会更受欢迎”这一误解，后文指出“人们不喜欢完美主义者”，本句旨在说明打破误解。故F选项“实际上，完美与建立真正的朋友关系之间并没有必然的联系”符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Examine your body language. Your nonverbal communication, such as body language and eye contact, can say as much about you as your actual words.(审视一下你的肢体语言。你的非语言交流方式，比如肢体动作和眼神交流，所传达的信息可能与你所说的话语一样丰富)”以及后文“People judge others as attractive, likeable, competent, trustworthy, or aggressive in less than a second, so you may have only 1/10 of a second to make a first impression.(人们在不到一秒钟的时间内就能对他人做出诸如“有魅力”“讨人喜欢”“有能力”“值得信赖”或“好斗”等评价，所以你可能只有十分之一秒的时间来形成第一印象)”可知，本段围绕“肢体语言”展开，本句与 “body language”相关，且引出后文“非语言交流的影响”，故E选项“你身体的姿态会向他人传递关于你的信息”符合语境。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Avoid looking over the person’s head or at another area of the room for more than a few seconds. (避免越过对方的头顶或看向房间的其他地方超过几秒钟)”可知，前文建议“倾听时避免长时间看向别处”，本句解释这种行为的负面信号。故C选项“这表明你感到厌倦或者没有集中注意力”符合语境。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Evans had always been refusing to go to school.

After she went off to college, the dresses remained in her closet (壁橱), stored in plastic bags and gathering dust. After graduating from college and returning home, she found herself becoming a popular bridesmaid (伴娘)and she was in many weddings over the years, all requiring that she buy a new formal dress. All those dresses took up precious space in her closet. She could hardly fit her work clothes in there. When she got her own apartment, she took away the work clothes but left the dresses behind. Worse still, even after she had moved out of the house, new bridesmaid dresses continued to find their way into the closet one by one. I complained about the situation, but the almost new dresses stayed untouched there. One day, she called me and said she had heard on the radio that a non-profit organization was collecting dresses and accessories (配饰). They were recycling clean, gently used formal dresses and giving them to girls who couldn’t afford to buy formal dresses so they could attend their high school balls wearing beautiful dresses. The organization collected formal dresses and accessories throughout our area. Some of their dresses were donated by local charity shops. Various stores provided make-up, too. The non-profit was also wanting volunteers to help clean, repair and store the dresses. Hearing the news, I was overjoyed. It was a win-win situation: The organization got the dresses and I was finally able to get my closet back. I thought the program was a wonderful idea. 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。 The next day, I couldn’t wait to contact the organization. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My closet was finally empty, but that didn’t end my connection with the organization. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next day, I couldn’t wait to contact the organization. I eagerly gathered all the dresses from my daughter’s closet, carefully inspecting each one for any damage. After packing them into boxes, I drove to the donation center. The workers there welcomed me warmly and thanked me for the contribution. As I handed over the dresses, I imagined the joy they would bring to girls who otherwise couldn’t afford such beautiful dresses. One worker even shared heartwarming stories of some girls who received the dresses, which made me feel it even more worthwhile to contribute. My closet was finally empty, but that didn’t end my connection with the organization. Inspired by their mission, I signed up to volunteer, excited to be part of such a meaningful cause. I regularly joined in helping sort and prepare donated dresses for their new owners. I also spread the word among friends, encouraging them to donate or volunteer. Over time, I witnessed countless girls light up with happiness when they got their perfect dresses. What began as a simple closet cleanup turned into a fulfilling journey of making a difference. The organization not only cleared my space but also filled my heart with purpose. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者处理女儿衣橱中众多礼服的故事，包括礼服积压、得知非营利组织回收礼服的消息、捐赠礼服以及后续成为志愿者等一系列故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，我迫不及待地联系了这个组织。”以及第二段首句内容“我的衣柜终于空了，但我和这个组织的联系并没有就此结束。”可知，第一段可描写作者将礼服送去了捐赠中心，而那儿的工作人员对作者充满了感激。 ②由第二段首句内容“我的衣柜终于空了，但我和这个组织的联系并没有就此结束。”可知，第二段可描写作者后来成为了这个组织的志愿者，鼓励其他人捐赠或做志愿者，让自己的生活更有意义。 2.续写线索：联系组织——检查礼服并驱车去捐赠中心——感激捐赠，并分享喜悦——觉得自己行为很有价值——成为志愿者——定期去帮忙并宣——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①参与：join in/take part in ②鼓励：encourage/motivate ③开始 ：become/start 情绪类 ①渴望地：eagerly/with eagerness ②开心：joy/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】As I handed over the dresses, I imagined the joy they would bring to girls who otherwise couldn’t afford such beautiful dresses.（运用了as引导时间状语从句、省略关系代词的限制性定语从句和who引导的限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】One worker even shared heartwarming stories of some girls who received the dresses, which made me feel it even more worthwhile to contribute.（运用了who引导的限制性定语从句和which引导的非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一英语期末考试试卷 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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，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专涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

B A heart-stopping rescue mission unfolded in Heber-Overgaard, Arizona, when a mother horse and her baby became trapped in a drying mud hole. The rescue began with a call from a group of people visiting the area to photograph the famous Heber Wild Horses. They contacted a local group for advice on the best places to see the horses. One suggested location had a dirt water tank that had been drying out, creating a dangerous mud area. Shortly after noon, an emergency message came, “Need help. Horses are trapped in mud and sinking!” Without hesitation, volunteers rushed into action, gathering ropes and asking neighbors for help. When they arrived, a couple with a small vehicle and ropes were already working with the photographers. They had successfully freed the young horse and turned their focus to the mother. Over the course of more than an hour, seven individuals worked hard to save the tired mother horse. The baby horse waited anxiously nearby, calling to her mother. The team worked carefully, letting the mother horse rest between attempts to avoid injury. At first, the only option was to place the rope around the mother horse’s neck, but the team tied it skillfully to prevent her from choking (窒息). Once the mother horse gained some strength to struggle on her own, the team pulled gently, later managing to reposition the rope around her haunches (腰腿)for a safer and more effective rescue. Finally, after non-stop teamwork, the mother horse was pulled free. Although shaky on her feet, she managed to stand and rejoin her baby. Together, they walked into the forest — safe at last. The local group shared their deep gratitude for the teamwork that made the rescue possible. “I am so grateful for what you all did and amazed by the communication, cooperation, and determination in this rescue,” the group wrote. The group has since told the U. S. Forest Service about the dangerous mud hole to prevent future problems. 4. Who first reported the emergency? A. The U. S. Forest Service. B. The local volunteers. C. Some neighboring residents. D. Some photographers. 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The efforts to save the mother horse. B. Teamwork and gratitude in the rescue. C. Struggle and challenges the horses met. D. The baby horse anxiously calling for help. 6. Which of the following can best describe the rescue team? A. Anxious and helpless. B. Responsive and cooperative. C. Talkative and friendly. D. Frightened and inexperienced 7. What can be the best title for the text? A. Wild Horses Facing Growing Threat in Arizona B. A Mother Horse’s Brave Struggle in a Mud Trap C. A Risky Rescue of Horses Trapped in Mud D. The Connection Between Photographers and Wild Horses C Zero or light soft drinks contain no or less sugar, so it naturally seems reasonable for people to think that, in addition to your health, this is also a better choice for your teeth, and thus they are becoming widely accepted. But is this actually the case? Zero or light soft drinks contain little sugar, but they are not necessarily safer for your teeth. Experts stress that although these soft drinks do not have sugar that causes tooth damage, they often contain acids (酸) that can attack the surface of your teeth. The acidity in these drinks can cause similar damage to sugar-sweetened soft drinks. Although changing to zero or light soft drinks reduces sugar intake, it does not eliminate its risk to your teeth. Acid erosion (腐蚀) is the wearing down of tooth surface by the action of acids, and soft drinks speed up this process. As tooth surface can no longer recover, it becomes thinner and weaker. Over time, this can lead to sensitivity, colour change and, in extreme cases, exposed tooth nerves. For example, the pH level in your mouth drops after drinking a can of soft drink due to its high acidity. Low pH promotes demineralization (脱矿) of your tooth surface, which means that necessary minerals are pulled out of the surface, making your teeth weaker to damage. While zero or light soft drinks contain no sugar and cause fewer holes of the teeth, they are still harmful to your teeth. Therefore, it is wise not to have them too much. Also, to limit damage to your teeth, you can clean your mouth with water after drinking to wash away acids, but wait at least 30 minutes before brushing — doing it right away can actually further damage your tooth surface. Use a straw (吸管) to limit direct contact of the drink with your teeth. The tips also apply when drinking regular sodas with sugar. 8. Why are zero or light soft drinks becoming popular? A. They are thought healthier. B. They can energize people. C. They have richer tastes. D. They are free of acids. 9. What does the underlined word “eliminate” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Increase. B. Spread. C. Remove. D. Foresee. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How acids form in zero or light soft drinks. B. Measures to recover teeth from acid erosion. C. Effects that acids have on zero or light soft drinks. D. How zero or light soft drinks thin the tooth surface. 11. What is one way to reduce the harm of zero or light soft drinks to teeth? A. Turning to a straw to limit soft drinks intake. B. Avoiding immediate brushing after drinking. C Drinking more soft drinks to strengthen teeth. D. Waiting for half an hour to wash after drinking. D Chimpanzees (黑猩猩)live in big, social societies and their main way to communicate is through making sounds and gestures such as raising their arms and touching their mouths. Researchers have also found chimpanzees drum (连续敲击)on the roots of trees in the wild, which can be heard kilometers away, but whether this was a form of communication was unclear. To better understand how chimpanzees use drumming, Catherine Hobaiter, a scientist at the University of St Andrews, and her team looked at two species — eastern chimpanzees living in East Africa and western chimpanzees in West Africa. They found that western chimpanzees drum with regular rhythms (节律)like the ticking of a clock while eastern chimpanzees’ drumming changes between short and long silences after each hit. The scientists think these differences could be a result of the fact that eastern chimpanzees live in big groups and tend to be more competitive with their neighbors, and western chimpanzees live in smaller groups with members living in an equal way. In a second study, Marc Naguib, a biologist at Wageningen University & Research, and his team focused on another unusual chimpanzee behavior: using stones to drum on tree trunks (树干). Stone-assisted drumming also differed from regular drumming in some ways: Before throwing stones, chimpanzees were more likely to make sounds and less likely to move their bodies from side to side. “I think we’re just scratching at the surface,” Hobaiter says. “Drumming is really a rich behavior that’s going to tell us so much more about what it means to be a chimpanzee.” In any case, the species and cultural differences could help the conservation efforts of chimpanzees’ habitats. In recent years, researchers have pushed to include animal culture in conservation strategy. “You need these diverse populations to maintain the richness of a species,” Naguib says. “But if you lose a culture, like humans, you won’t get it back.” 12.

If you want to become outgoing, there are several strategies that you can use. ____16____ No matter how obvious it may sound, it’s helpful to actually realize that outgoing people didn’t go straight from the womb (子宫) to parties. They had years of practice in safer environments: speaking to their family members, joking with their classmates, and so on. Search for a common interest. ____17____ In order to find out what you can talk about, you may have to seek for things you have in common. If you work together or have mutual friends or have anything that links you together, it should be a bit easier. Know that your flaws (缺点) can turn into benefits. A common misconception is that people will like you more if you become “better”. ____18____ People don’t like hanging out with those perfectionists. Instead of trying to hide or kill your flaws, know that a weak paycheck, a slight belly, or spending hours watching TV only makes you more human and likable. Examine your body language. Your nonverbal communication, such as body language and eye contact, can say as much about you as your actual words. ____19____ People judge others as attractive, likeable, competent, trustworthy, or aggressive in less than a second, so you may have only 1/10 of a second to make a first impression. Be an active listener. When you’re listening to someone, show them that you’re engaged in the conversation. Focus on what they’re saying. Look at them while they speak. Avoid looking over the person’s head or at another area of the room for more than a few seconds. ____20____ A. Start off small. B. Take yourself less seriously. C. This indicates that you’re bored or not paying attention. D. It can send a message that you want to communicate with others. E. The way that you hold your body sends messages about you to others. F. The truth is that there is no relationship between perfection and making real friends. G First conversations between people are all about what the two parties have in common. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Evans had always been refusing to go to school.

After she went off to college, the dresses remained in her closet (壁橱), stored in plastic bags and gathering dust. After graduating from college and returning home, she found herself becoming a popular bridesmaid (伴娘)and she was in many weddings over the years, all requiring that she buy a new formal dress. All those dresses took up precious space in her closet. She could hardly fit her work clothes in there. When she got her own apartment, she took away the work clothes but left the dresses behind. Worse still, even after she had moved out of the house, new bridesmaid dresses continued to find their way into the closet one by one. I complained about the situation, but the almost new dresses stayed untouched there. One day, she called me and said she had heard on the radio that a non-profit organization was collecting dresses and accessories (配饰). They were recycling clean, gently used formal dresses and giving them to girls who couldn’t afford to buy formal dresses so they could attend their high school balls wearing beautiful dresses. The organization collected formal dresses and accessories throughout our area. Some of their dresses were donated by local charity shops. Various stores provided make-up, too. The non-profit was also wanting volunteers to help clean, repair and store the dresses. Hearing the news, I was overjoyed. It was a win-win situation: The organization got the dresses and I was finally able to get my closet back. I thought the program was a wonderful idea. 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。 The next day, I couldn’t wait to contact the organization. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My closet was finally empty, but that didn’t end my connection with the organization. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
