Traditionally attributed to Gu Kaizhi (about AD 345—406), it probably dates to between AD 400 and 700. This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua(about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress. The Scroll carries inscriptions (题字) by later collectors including the Qianlong emperor (1736—1795). The British Museum purchased the Scroll from Captain Clarence Johnson (1870—1937) who was in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion (1899—1901). Originally a hand scroll, the painting and later inscriptions were separated and mounted onto panels in 1914. Visiting information The Admonitions Scroll will be on display from Monday, 14 July — Monday, 25 August, 2025. Due to conservation precautions, it can only be displayed for six weeks each year. Non-museum guided tours and tour groups, regardless of size, will not be permitted. Hand-held photography and video recording (without flash) is allowed in the gallery for private purposes only. If you want to see the Admonitions Scroll throughout the year, a digital screen of the scroll is available in Room 33; China and South Asia on the First Floor. 21. Who wrote the poetic text on the Admonitions Scroll? A. Zhang Hua. B. Gu Kaizhi. C. Qianlong emperor. D. Clarence Johnson. 22. Why is the painting only displayed for six weeks each year? A. To protect the Scroll. B. To reduce visitor flow. C. To avoid photo taking. D. To show a digital copy. 23. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An ancient poetry collection. B. A museum visitor guide or website. C. A moral guidebook for women. D. An artist’s biography of Gu Kaizhi. B Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 24. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 25. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 26. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 27. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests C Danish recycling artist and climate activist Thomas Dambo is introducing his large troll sculptures (巨魔雕塑) to the United States. Together with 22 troll builders, Dambo has created 10 sculptures that spread from the East Coast to the West Coast. His U.S. tour, titled “Way of the Bird King”, uses thousands of thrown- away palettes (调色板) to create these magical woodland creatures. “It has always been a dream of mine to go on a coast-to-coast road trip, especially since my days as a rapper touring around Denmark in a big bus,” says Dambo. “So, in a way, this feels like my big American breakthrough. My hope is that these sculptures will not only show the beauty of recycled materials but also inspire people to reconnect with nature, and promote a greater sense of environmental responsibility.” Starting in New Jersey and finishing in Washington State, “Way of the Bird King” continues to use recycled materials to tell a story of honoring nature and protecting land and waterways. Along with the installations (雕塑装置), Dambo has also been hosting talks, workshops, and other events to connect with the local community. The Pacific Northwest is particularly represented on the tour, with one sculpture going up in Portland, Oregon, and five others located across West Washington. These Northwest Trolls were organized by the Scan De Foundation, which aims to support relations between Denmark and the United States. The organization connected Dambo with members of the Muckleshoot and Snoqualmie tribes (部落), as his trolls are set on their traditional land. Together, they worked to ensure that these installations would respect Native American traditions. “Dambo brings messages to the world about taking care of our planet and not being wasteful,” Halliday says. “Our tribe shares the same values, so it was a natural cooperation. We need to take care of our Mother Earth.” 28. Why did Thomas Dambo create the 10 sculptures? A. To show his artistic talent. B. To make a profit from art exhibitions. C. To experience a coast-to-coast road trip. D. To raise people’s environmental awareness. 29. What do we know about the “Way of the Bird King” tour? A. It starts in Washington State. B It uses new materials to create sculptures. C. It only includes the display of installations. D. It aims to respect nature and protect land and waterways. 30. What is John Halliday’s attitude towards the cooperation with Dambo? A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Objective. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The process of creating troll sculptures. B. Thomas Dambo’s U.S. tour with troll sculptures. C. The Scan De Foundation’s support for art events. D. Thomas Dambo’s experience as a rapper in Denmark. D Scott Cooper is a 66-ycar-old Australian with dementia (痴呆症). Every day, he struggles with forgetting where he puts his keys and sometimes can’t even recognize the faces of his dearest friends. But he refuses to let this tough condition stop him from exploring the world! He and his wife Jill take regular trips — twice a year. “Traveling helps me keep enjoying life,” Scott said. “Although it can be tiring sometimes, these new experiences make my mind and body active.” Scientists predict that by 2050, around 153 million people globally will suffer from dementia. However, a recent study interviewing over a hundred dementia patients in China, reveals that travel can significantly benefit these patients. The new sights, smells, tastes, and social interactions during travel offer crucial cognitive and sensory stimulation. According to Jun Wen, a tourism lecturer at Edith Cowan University and researcher, the expectation and planning in tourism stimulate brain function. Meanwhile, the exercise often aligns with dementia treatment plans. Warren Harding, a dementia care professor, adds that travel helps patients build confidence, trigger memories, and gain independence, serving as a valuable addition to non-drug treatments by offering emotional and social benefits. Around the world, countries are introducing creative programs to make travel more accessible for people with dementia. In Western Australia, over 20 venues host “memory café” events, where patients socialize over morning tea. Near Melbourne, Australia’s first dementia-friendly sensory path winds through a forest. These diverse efforts collectively represent a growing global trend. By focusing on the unique needs of dementia patients, these actions not only enhance the travel experience for this community but also set an example for more friendly and caring tourism worldwide. In years to come, aged care experts hope people like Scott and Jill Cooper can holiday with greater case, creating memories from travel, no matter how long they last. 32 Why is Scott Cooper’s story mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To promote his way of life. B. To show his passion for travel. C. To reveal a potential treatment for dementia. D. To reflect his tough condition with dementia. 33. What might benefit patients with dementia during travel according to the study? A. Chatting with locals. B. Recalling fond memories. C. Enjoying favourite foods. D. Admiring familiar scenery. 34. What do the underlined words in Paragraph 3 mean? A. conflicts with B. agrees with C. contrasts with D. deals with 35. What can we know about the dementia-friendly travel programs? A. They make it accessible to travel in Australia. B. They meet dementia patients’ medication needs. C. They improve travel experience and global tourism. D. They help dementia patients create long-term memories. 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。 Cooking is among the most important skills you should teach your teens. ____36____ Here are several ways to help them get started on their cooking journey.

She was quiet, always having lunch alone. From her parents, I learned that Ainne was born in Japan and spent most of her childhood there, and then the family moved in Canada. It wasn’t as easy as she thought. She had to learn and speak a new language to be able to communicate with other people. When at school, she tended to be alone. She usually didn’t talk to people. In class, she was not active , and always chose to shut her mouth. She didn’t join any clubs or after-school activities for a little while even though the teachers and her mom were always encouraging her. At first, I thought maybe she was just a little shy like me when I first moved to Canada. At that time, it also wasn’t as easy as I thought, but I’ve made it until where I am now. So I had the confidence to encourage Ainne to join us. In one class, I invited Ainne to make a short presentation. But she just stood up, speechless. Then she looked down, color rising on her face. The next class, we had a P. E. lesson in the gym. But she still didn’t join in it, just watching everyone play. Learning that she was fond of sports and was actually a very athletic and energetic person, I felt the urge to do something to help her melt into us. All these thoughts came to my head and pushed me to sit aside Ainne. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Hello, Ainne, would you like to join us playing basketball?” I smiled. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, Ainne volunteered to come to the platform to make a presentation. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 秘密※考试开始前 甘孜州2024-2025学年全州统一调研考试 高一下期英语期末试题 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项: 1.答题前, 务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 2.答选择题时，必须使用2B铅笔填涂对应题目的答案标号，如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。 3.答非选择题时，必须使用0.5毫米黑色签字笔，将答案书写在答题卡规定的位置上。 4.所有题目必须在答题卡上作答，在试题卷上答题无效。 5.考试结束后, 只将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the woman want Daniel to do?

She finally won the Scripps National Spelling Bee after she failed to win for three times. Harini Logan’s winning came late Thursday. She spelled 21 words correctly during the 90-second spell-off. Her competitor, 12-year-old Vikram Raju of Aurora, Colorado just managed to spell 15 words correctly. Before the spell-off, Logan thought she had lost the competition, because she was told she had answered a question incorrectly during the vocabulary round of the spelling bee. A few minutes later, head judge Mary Brooks said the judges studied her answer. They decided to change their decision. It turned out her answer to that question was correct. Because of that, she could compete in the spell-off and finally won. Harini won $50,000 in prizes. The Scripps National Spelling Bee takes place in Washington, D. C. It began in 1925. It is held once a year. Vikram Raju came in second. He hopes to return next time. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。 A The Admonitions Scroll is considered a milestone in Chinese painting history. Traditionally attributed to Gu Kaizhi (about AD 345—406), it probably dates to between AD 400 and 700. This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua(about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress. The Scroll carries inscriptions (题字) by later collectors including the Qianlong emperor (1736—1795). The British Museum purchased the Scroll from Captain Clarence Johnson (1870—1937) who was in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion (1899—1901). Originally a hand scroll, the painting and later inscriptions were separated and mounted onto panels in 1914. Visiting information The Admonitions Scroll will be on display from Monday, 14 July — Monday, 25 August, 2025. Due to conservation precautions, it can only be displayed for six weeks each year. Non-museum guided tours and tour groups, regardless of size, will not be permitted. Hand-held photography and video recording (without flash) is allowed in the gallery for private purposes only. If you want to see the Admonitions Scroll throughout the year, a digital screen of the scroll is available in Room 33; China and South Asia on the First Floor. 21.

The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 24. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 25. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 26. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 27. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. C 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了英国曾经覆盖着被称为凯尔特雨林或大西洋林地的热带雨林，后来因放牧被砍伐，如今英国正开展一项全国性的运动来恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统，并介绍了该运动的进展、资金支持及带来的好处等。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (但几个世纪以来，这些古老的林地后来被清理并变成了放牧牛羊的草地)”可知，英国凯尔特雨林消失的主要原因是畜牧业的发展。故选B项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. (一场恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统的运动正在英国各地展开)”以及后文提到的植树计划和资金支持，可以看出这一运动充满希望。故选B项。 【26题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. (成熟的温带雨林需要几十年的时间才能形成，但是对自然的好处会更swifter)”，由but可知，前后形成转折，前面说需要的时间长，后面应表示好处来得快，所以“swifter”意为“更快的”。故选C项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (凯尔特雨林曾一度遍布英国西部较为湿润的地区。但在过去的几个世纪里，这些古老的林地逐渐被砍伐清理，转而变成了用于放牧牛羊的牧场)”以及结合全文内容可知，文章开篇提到英国凯尔特雨林的消失，随后重点介绍了当前全国范围内恢复雨林的努力，包括植树计划、资金支持以及预期的生态效益，因此，最佳标题应涵盖“恢复雨林”这一核心内容。故选C项。 C Danish recycling artist and climate activist Thomas Dambo is introducing his large troll sculptures (巨魔雕塑) to the United States. Together with 22 troll builders, Dambo has created 10 sculptures that spread from the East Coast to the West Coast. His U.S. tour, titled “Way of the Bird King”, uses thousands of thrown- away palettes (调色板) to create these magical woodland creatures. “It has always been a dream of mine to go on a coast-to-coast road trip, especially since my days as a rapper touring around Denmark in a big bus,” says Dambo. “So, in a way, this feels like my big American breakthrough. My hope is that these sculptures will not only show the beauty of recycled materials but also inspire people to reconnect with nature, and promote a greater sense of environmental responsibility.” Starting in New Jersey and finishing in Washington State, “Way of the Bird King” continues to use recycled materials to tell a story of honoring nature and protecting land and waterways. Along with the installations (雕塑装置), Dambo has also been hosting talks, workshops, and other events to connect with the local community. The Pacific Northwest is particularly represented on the tour, with one sculpture going up in Portland, Oregon, and five others located across West Washington. These Northwest Trolls were organized by the Scan De Foundation, which aims to support relations between Denmark and the United States. The organization connected Dambo with members of the Muckleshoot and Snoqualmie tribes (部落), as his trolls are set on their traditional land. Together, they worked to ensure that these installations would respect Native American traditions. “Dambo brings messages to the world about taking care of our planet and not being wasteful,” Halliday says. “Our tribe shares the same values, so it was a natural cooperation. We need to take care of our Mother Earth.” 28. Why did Thomas Dambo create the 10 sculptures? A. To show his artistic talent. B. To make a profit from art exhibitions. C. To experience a coast-to-coast road trip. D. To raise people’s environmental awareness. 29. What do we know about the “Way of the Bird King” tour? A. It starts in Washington State. B. It uses new materials to create sculptures. C. It only includes the display of installations. D. It aims to respect nature and protect land and waterways. 30. What is John Halliday’s attitude towards the cooperation with Dambo? A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Objective. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The process of creating troll sculptures. B. Thomas Dambo’s U.S. tour with troll sculptures. C. The Scan De Foundation’s support for art events. D. Thomas Dambo’s experience as a rapper in Denmark. 【答案】28. D 29. D 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了丹麦艺术家托马斯·丹博携团队用回收材料在美国打造10座巨魔雕塑，办巡回展并开展活动。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“My hope is that these sculptures will not only show the beauty of recycled materials but also inspire people to reconnect with nature, and promote a greater sense of environmental responsibility.(我的愿望是，这些雕塑不仅能够展现回收材料的美感，还能激励人们重新与大自然建立联系，并增强他们对环境保护的责任感)”可知，他创作这10件雕塑作品是为了提高人们的环保意识。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Starting in New Jersey and finishing in Washington State, “Way of the Bird King” continues to use recycled materials to tell a story of honoring nature and protecting land and waterways.(“鸟王之路”从新泽西州出发，最终抵达华盛顿州，它继续采用回收材料来讲述一个尊重自然、保护土地和水道的故事)”可知，这个活动旨在尊重自然、保护土地和水道。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Dambo brings messages to the world about taking care of our planet and not being wasteful,” Halliday says. “Our tribe shares the same values, so it was a natural cooperation. We need to take care of our Mother Earth.”(哈利迪说：“丹博向世界传递了有关保护地球、避免浪费的信息。我们部落秉持着同样的价值观，所以这种合作是自然而然发生的。我们必须呵护我们的地球母亲。”)”可知，约翰·哈利迪对与丹博的合作是支持的态度。故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Danish recycling artist and climate activist Thomas Dambo is introducing his large troll sculptures to the United States. Together with 22 troll builders, Dambo has created 10 sculptures that spread from the East Coast to the West Coast. His U.S. tour, titled “Way of the Bird King”, uses thousands of thrown- away palettes to create these magical woodland creatures.(丹麦的回收利用艺术家兼气候活动家托马斯·丹博正将他的大型巨魔雕塑作品引入美国。与 22 名巨魔雕塑建造者一起，丹博创作了 10 件雕塑作品，这些作品从东海岸延伸至西海岸。他的美国巡回展览名为“鸟王之路”，利用了数千块废弃的调色板来塑造这些神奇的森林生物)”结合文章主要说明了丹麦艺术家托马斯·丹博携团队用回收材料在美国打造10座巨魔雕塑，办巡回展并开展活动。可知，这篇文章的主要观点是托马斯·丹博的以巨像雕塑进行的美国巡展。故选B。 D Scott Cooper is a 66-ycar-old Australian with dementia (痴呆症). Every day, he struggles with forgetting where he puts his keys and sometimes can’t even recognize the faces of his dearest friends. But he refuses to let this tough condition stop him from exploring the world! He and his wife Jill take regular trips — twice a year. “Traveling helps me keep enjoying life,” Scott said. “Although it can be tiring sometimes, these new experiences make my mind and body active.” Scientists predict that by 2050, around 153 million people globally will suffer from dementia. However, a recent study interviewing over a hundred dementia patients in China, reveals that travel can significantly benefit these patients. The new sights, smells, tastes, and social interactions during travel offer crucial cognitive and sensory stimulation. According to Jun Wen a tourism lecturer at Edith Cowan University and researcher, the expectation and planning in tourism stimulate brain function. Meanwhile, the exercise often aligns with dementia treatment plans. Warren Harding, a dementia care professor, adds that travel helps patients build confidence, trigger memories, and gain independence, serving as a valuable addition to non-drug treatments by offering emotional and social benefits. Around the world, countries are introducing creative programs to make travel more accessible for people with dementia. In Western Australia, over 20 venues host “memory café” events, where patients socialize over morning tea. Near Melbourne, Australia’s first dementia-friendly sensory path winds through a forest. These diverse efforts collectively represent a growing global trend. By focusing on the unique needs of dementia patients, these actions not only enhance the travel experience for this community but also set an example for more friendly and caring tourism worldwide. In years to come, aged care experts hope people like Scott and Jill Cooper can holiday with greater case, creating memories from travel, no matter how long they last. 32. Why is Scott Cooper’s story mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To promote his way of life. B. To show his passion for travel. C. To reveal a potential treatment for dementia. D. To reflect his tough condition with dementia. 33. What might benefit patients with dementia during travel according to the study? A. Chatting with locals. B. Recalling fond memories. C. Enjoying favourite foods. D. Admiring familiar scenery. 34. What do the underlined words in Paragraph 3 mean? A. conflicts with B. agrees with C. contrasts with D. deals with 35. What can we know about the dementia-friendly travel programs? A. They make it accessible to travel in Australia. B. They meet dementia patients’ medication needs. C. They improve travel experience and global tourism. D. They help dementia patients create long-term memories. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了旅行对痴呆症患者的益处，包括认知和感官刺激、增强信心等，同时提到全球各地正推出相关创意项目，以方便痴呆症患者旅行，体现了对这一群体的关怀。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Scott Cooper is a 66-ycar-old Australian with dementia (痴呆症). Every day, he struggles with forgetting where he puts his keys and sometimes can’t even recognize the faces of his dearest friends. But he refuses to let this tough condition stop him from exploring the world! He and his wife Jill take regular trips — twice a year. (Scott Cooper是一位66岁的澳大利亚痴呆症患者。每天，他都在努力回忆自己把钥匙放在哪里，有时甚至认不出最亲密朋友的面孔。但他拒绝让这种艰难的状况阻止他探索世界！他和妻子Jill定期旅行 —— 一年两次。)”以及第二段中“However, a recent study interviewing over a hundred dementia patients in China, reveals that travel can significantly benefit these patients. (然而，最近一项对中国100多名痴呆症患者的采访研究表明，旅行对这些患者有显著益处。)”可知，第一段提到Scott Cooper的故事是为了通过他的经历来引出旅行可能对痴呆症患者有益这一话题，即揭示了一种潜在的治疗痴呆症的方法（通过旅行）。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The new sights, smells, tastes, and social interactions during travel offer crucial cognitive and sensory stimulation. (旅行中的新景象、新气味、新味道和社交互动提供了至关重要的认知和感官刺激。)”可知，与当地人聊天属于社交互动，这可能会让痴呆症患者在旅行中受益。故选A项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的“According to Jun Wen, a tourism lecturer at Edith Cowan University and researcher, the expectation and planning in tourism stimulate brain function. (伊迪斯科文大学的旅游讲师兼研究员Jun Wen表示，旅游业中的期望和规划能刺激大脑功能。)”以划线词后面的“dementia treatment plans (痴呆症治疗方案)”可知，这种旅行中的锻炼（即期望和规划）与痴呆症治疗方案的目标是一致的，都是为了刺激大脑功能，帮助患者。由此推知，画线词aligns with与agrees with意思相近，表示“与……一致”。故选B项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“These diverse efforts collectively represent a growing global trend. By focusing on the unique needs of dementia patients, these actions not only enhance the travel experience for this community but also set an example for more friendly and caring tourism worldwide. (这些多样化的努力共同代表了一种日益增长的全球趋势。通过关注痴呆症患者的独特需求，这些行动不仅改善了这个群体的旅行体验，也为全球更友好、更关怀的旅游业树立了榜样。)”可知，痴呆症友好的旅行项目改善了旅行体验，并为全球旅游业树立了榜样，即改善了全球旅游业。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Cooking is among the most important skills you should teach your teens. ____36____ Here are several ways to help them get started on their cooking journey.

She was quiet, always having lunch alone. From her parents, I learned that Ainne was born in Japan and spent most of her childhood there, and then the family moved in Canada. It wasn’t as easy as she thought. She had to learn and speak a new language to be able to communicate with other people. When at school, she tended to be alone. She usually didn’t talk to people. In class, she was not active , and always chose to shut her mouth. She didn’t join any clubs or after-school activities for a little while even though the teachers and her mom were always encouraging her. At first, I thought maybe she was just a little shy like me when I first moved to Canada. At that time, it also wasn’t as easy as I thought, but I’ve made it until where I am now. So I had the confidence to encourage Ainne to join us. In one class, I invited Ainne to make a short presentation. But she just stood up, speechless. Then she looked down, color rising on her face. The next class, we had a P. E. lesson in the gym. But she still didn’t join in it, just watching everyone play. Learning that she was fond of sports and was actually a very athletic and energetic person, I felt the urge to do something to help her melt into us. All these thoughts came to my head and pushed me to sit aside Ainne. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Hello, Ainne, would you like to join us playing basketball?” I smiled. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, Ainne volunteered to come to the platform to make a presentation. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: “Hello, Ainne, would you like to join us playing basketball?”I smiled. Knowing Ainne played well, I tried to persuade her to be brave. However, she shook her head and smiled shyly. Then I told her I was a new comer once and could understand how she was feeling. I hoped she could step out of the comfort zone and be more active. She was moved and told me the reason why she always chose to shut her mouth was that she was not very confident to speak English in front of others. I encouraged her to seize every chance to practice it. The next day, Ainne volunteered to come to the platform to make a presentation. “Hello, boys and girls, I’m Ainne from Japan. Before my presentation, I’d like to express my thanks to you all. Especially Ms. Lee.” Then she turned to me, with a bright smile spreading on her face. How much she longed to share experiences with her classmates. Getting widely recognized, Ainne was excited with tears. Later, she was a participant in every discussion in class and joined an after-school sports club with new friends. She tasted the sweet spoils of confidence. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者班上来了一个叫Ainne Olar新学生，她往往一个人待着。她通常不跟人说话。在课堂上，她不活跃，总是选择闭上她的嘴。她有一段时间没有参加任何社团或课外活动，作者决定鼓励Ainne加入到班集体中，作者感到迫切地想做些什么来帮助Ainne融入班上的同学中。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““你好，安妮，你想和我们一起打篮球吗？”我笑了笑。”可知，第一段可描写作者如何鼓励Ainne，给Ainne信心。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，安妮自告奋勇来到讲台上做演讲。”可知，第二段可描写Ainne演讲内容以及她身上所发生的巨大的变化。 2.续写线索：说服Ainne勇敢——作者告诉Ainne自己的经历——Ainne告诉自己闭上嘴的原因——作者鼓励Ainne练习英语——Ainne向作者表示感谢——Ainne渴望和同学们分享经历——Ainne的改变 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①说服：persuade sb. to do/talk sb. into doing ②鼓励：encourage sb. to do/inspire sb. to do ③渴望：long to do/be eager to do 情绪类 ①感谢：express one’s thanks/convey one’s appreciation ②激动：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] I hoped she could step out of the comfort zone and be more active.
