Read about other people’s exciting travels around the world with these three books. Is That Bike Diesel, Mate?: One man, one bike and the first Lap Around Australia on Used Cooking Oil by Paul Carter There are lots of ways to travel around Australia. You could do it by plane, train or car. But author Paul Carter decided to tour the country on a homemade motorcycle that runs on cooking oil. Why? the author worked in the oil industry for many years, and was keen to explore alternative fuels. So, he bought the unusual bike from a group of Australian university students (who had built it themselves)and set off. On route, he has lots of amusing experiences. He almost dies in a crash and he even attempts to break the land speed record for a motorbike running . You Are Awful (But I Like You) Travels Through Unloved Britain by Tim Moore Travel writers usually go to the best destinations. But not Tim Moore. In the book, Tim travels to the worst places in the UK. Follow him as he heads to “the bleakest towns, the worst hotels and the scariest pubs”. And to make matters worse, he does it in the middle of winter. “My primary challenge was to have a good time in places that everyone had said I wouldn’t,” said the author. And he does meet lots of quirky characters and discovers that even Britain’s ugliest parts have an inner beauty. Coasting: A Private Voyage by Jonathan Raban In 1982, author Jonathan Raban bought a boat and navigated Britain. And this is the book about his adventure. Along the way he gets caught in a few storms, explores seaside towns and even takes his aging parents along for part of the journey. Raban also uses his time at sea to think about how 1980s Britain is changing under Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. 1. What is special of Paul Carter’s travel? A. He breaks the land speed record. B. He uses an unconventional fuel. C. His aging parents accompanies him. D. His motorcycle almost dies in a crash. 2. What challenge does TimMoore face while traveling in the UK? A. Searching for alternative fuels. B. Surviving heavy storms at sea. C. Enduring the freezing cold in winter. D. Enjoying himself in unattractive places. 3. What do the three books have in common? A. They share practical travel advice for tourists. B. They compare different modes of transportation. C. They explore unique and challenging travel experiences. D. They offer alternative fuel sources and their applications. B Soon after Mr. & Mrs. Bacchus started farming their little patch of land, they faced a major problem — a plague of birds fed on their precious crops. Then, a man stopped on the road outside their house, and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property. Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds, they should instead learn to live alongside them, and Maraksacha Reserve was born. Today, the couple credit this man, the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa, with changing their lives, and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region. Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups. Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it’s among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1,600 bird species — nearly double the number found in all of Europe — within an area just slightly larger than the UK. As the business of birding grows, more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves, benefiting not just the birds, but the country’s economy too. One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the long-wattled umbrellabird. On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists — work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. “Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn’t our only motivation,” says Luis Jr., Ajila’s son. “We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations.” Since 2005, Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve. At first, things didn’t go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour. Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife — and the people who visit — flourish,” Angel Paz says. 4. What advice did the photographer give to the couple? A. Photographing the birds. B. Coexisting with the birds. C. Protecting their precious crops. D. Taking care of their property. 5. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A. How Ecuador is geographically unique. B What distinguishes Ecuador’s biodiversity. C. What makes Ecuador a birding destination. D. How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador. 6 What have the Ajila family achieved? A. Helping other farmers shake off poverty. B. Combining profitability with sustainability. C. Applying new technology in modern farming. D. Changing the landscapes of their residential areas. 7. What can we learn from Ángel Paz’s story? A. Well begun is half done. B. It takes time to bear fruit. C The early bird catches the worm. D. The secret to success is adaptability. C Most people can recall a time when they were in a bad mood after a long day at work and the barista (咖啡师) gave them a warm smile? Or maybe they overheard their bus-mate speaking German and ended up filling the morning commute (通勤) with a stimulating conversation about an upcoming trip? Strangers are around you most of the day, and what if you spend time interacting with them? A new approach urges just that. The Atlantic examines the benefits of speaking to strangers by discussing the work of psychologist Gillian Sandstrom. She considered herself an introvert (内向的人) growing up. However, about a decade ago, she started experimenting with talking to strangers. It was awkward at the beginning, but eventually Sandstrom got better at making positive connections with or smiling at the people she passed every day, and it made her feel better. Strangers represent possible relationships and interactions. If you take the time to drop a warm smile or a kind word to a stranger, at worst this interaction couldn’t be reciprocated. At best, you can sometimes have an extended conversation with a stranger, learn something interesting from them, or make a new friend. Nicholas Epley, a psychologist at the University of Chicago conducted a study, in which participants spoke to strangers on public transportation during their morning commutes. Not only did the group speaking to strangers report having a more enjoyable commute, but conversations with seatmates lasted, on average, 14.2 minutes. According to Epley, loneliness was one of the most dangerous social stressors and was even more physically harmful than overweight. “It’s larger than air pollution and it’s larger than physical activity and exercise,” he said. Making connections with those around us could ease loneliness and its harmful impacts. Considering all the benefits of conversing with strangers, why not take advantage of being around people you don’t know? Flash a smile or start up a conversation, and you may make two persons’ day better. 8. Why does the author mention the examples in the first paragraph? A. To show the value of a warm smile. B. To find spots for talking with strangers. C. To put forward the communication methods. D. To introduce the topic of interactions with strangers. 9. What does the underlined word “reciprocated” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Evaluated. B. Remembered. C. Responded. D. Employed. 10. What can we learn from Epley’s study? A. Most commuters tend to talk with strangers. B. Physical activity helps to reduce loneliness. C. Social interactions make participants less stressed. D. Participants remove their negative emotions totally. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. Social interactions for stress relief. B. Benefits of interacting with strangers. C. Skills of getting along with strangers. D. Importance of talks during commutes. D We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are blocked with traffic, creating fumes containing gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done? The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. There are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into. Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC: “The big leap forward will come with solid state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars.” These will charge more quickly and give cars a bigger range. Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. But some countries offer incentive, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1000 inhabitants. But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. “It’s emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built, the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.” Maybe it’s time to think about making fewer journeys or using public transport. 12. What can we infer from the question at the end of paragraph 1? A. We should not be too optimistic about the future. B. Electric vehicles may not solve the traffic problems. C. It’s not a good idea to replace petrol vehicles with electric ones. D. It is not easy to obtain a greener future by means of electric vehicles. 13. What does the underlined word “incentive” mean in paragraph 2? A. payment B. income C. encouragement D. method 14. Which statement is true according to the passage? A. Electric motoring will create a zero-carbon future. B. Electric cars might not get stuck in traffic jams in the future. C. There are four obstacles on the road to global traffic being totally electric. D. Putting solid-state batteries in electric cars first will be a “great leap forward”. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Total Electric Traffic: a Long Way to Go B. Electric Vehicles: a Road to a Greener Future C. Electric Power or Petrol: a Tough Decision to Make D. Petrol and Diesel Vehicles: a Main source of Gases 第二节(共5小题; 母小题2.5分, 共12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 Career planning is a vital step towards achieving success and fulfillment in our lives.

Throughout her practice, there have been many unusual cases. Some were quite sad and some were even funny. But most of all she remembered one time on a rainy day a little girl came to her with her little guinea pig (豚鼠). She was in tears and asked Jenny to save her beloved pet. “This is my only friend. I really love my Dorothy,” the girl said. Jenny examined the animal and realized that it was very ill. The pig looked young. Probably, it was already sick when it was sold to the girl. The vet saw many children’s tears, and each time she felt awful. But she always found the strength to say that she couldn’t save the pet. However, this time she looked at the girl and couldn’t say anything. Jenny saw how simply the girl was dressed and thought that her family didn’t make a lot of money. Therefore, the pig wasn’t just a pet for her, but a real treasure. “Tell me your phone number, so I can call you after the operation,” Jenny said. “I’ll give you my grandmother’s phone number, because I live with her. My parents were gone. Grandma said that they had gone somewhere far and for a long time. By the way, they gave me the pig before leaving,” the girl said. Jenny wrote down the number, and when the girl left the clinic, she burst into tears. She realized her parents had died and the girl didn’t know the truth yet. How could she tell her that her guinea pig was going to die? Jenny looked at the animal helplessly and wondered what she could do. Suddenly she came up with an idea. But before doing it, she put the guinea pig to sleep, and went to the nearest pet store during lunchtime. She wanted to buy exactly the same guinea pig and give it to the girl. 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。 However, finding it wasn’t so easy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Her grandmother understood everything the moment she saw the pet, but the girl didn’t notice the change. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025年上学期高二期末调研考试 英 语 试 卷 满分150分 考试时间120分钟 注意：所有试题均须在答题卡上作答。 第一部分：听力技能 (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。 例: How much is the shirt?

But author Paul Carter decided to tour the country on a homemade motorcycle that runs on cooking oil.(在澳大利亚有很多种旅行方式。你可以乘飞机、火车或汽车去。但作家保罗·卡特决定骑一辆用食用油驱动的自制摩托车环游这个国家。)”可知，作家保罗·卡特不是使用一辆用食用油驱动的自制摩托车环游，由此可知，保罗·卡特旅行的特别之处在于他使用一种非常规燃料旅行的。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据You Are Awful (But I Like You) Travels Through Unloved Britain by Tim Moore部分的“Follow him as he heads to “the bleakest towns, the worst hotels and the scariest pubs”. And to make matters worse, he does it in the middle of winter. “My primary challenge was to have a good time in places that everyone had said I wouldn’t,” said the author.(跟随他前往“最荒凉的城镇，最糟糕的酒店和最可怕的酒吧”。更糟糕的是，他还在大冬天这么做。“我的主要挑战是在每个人都说我不会去的地方玩得开心，”作者说。)”可知，Tim Moore在最糟糕的天气里去最糟糕的目的地旅行，去人们认为他玩的不会开心的地方寻求快乐，由此可知，Tim Moore在英国旅行时遇到的挑战是在没有吸引力的地方自得其乐。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段“Adventure. New experiences. Interesting people. Read about other people’s exciting travels around the world with these three books.(冒险。新体验。有趣的人。阅读这三本书，了解其他人令人兴奋的世界旅行。)”以及对三本与冒险、新体验和有趣的人相关的书中介绍的独特的世界旅行可知，这三本书的共同点是他们探索独特而富有挑战性的旅行体验。故选C项。 B Soon after Mr. & Mrs. Bacchus started farming their little patch of land, they faced a major problem — a plague of birds fed on their precious crops. Then, a man stopped on the road outside their house, and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property. Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds, they should instead learn to live alongside them, and Maraksacha Reserve was born. Today, the couple credit this man, the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa, with changing their lives, and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region. Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups. Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it’s among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1,600 bird species — nearly double the number found in all of Europe — within an area just slightly larger than the UK. As the business of birding grows, more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves, benefiting not just the birds, but the country’s economy too. One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the long-wattled umbrellabird. On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists — work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. “Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn’t our only motivation,” says Luis Jr., Ajila’s son. “We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations.” Since 2005, Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve. At first, things didn’t go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour. Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife — and the people who visit — flourish,” Angel Paz says. 4. What advice did the photographer give to the couple? A. Photographing the birds. B. Coexisting with the birds. C. Protecting their precious crops. D. Taking care of their property. 5. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A. How Ecuador is geographically unique. B. What distinguishes Ecuador’s biodiversity. C. What makes Ecuador a birding destination. D. How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador. 6. What have the Ajila family achieved? A. Helping other farmers shake off poverty. B. Combining profitability with sustainability. C. Applying new technology in modern farming. D. Changing the landscapes of their residential areas. 7. What can we learn from Ángel Paz’s story? A. Well begun is half done. B. It takes time to bear fruit. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. The secret to success is adaptability. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要介绍了一对爱鸟夫妇和摄影师Manu Espinosa在厄瓜多尔创办了保护区，发展观鸟旅游业，同时带动其他农户将农田转变为观鸟地，这既促进了当地的旅游业有保护了环境。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。由第一段中“Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds, they should instead learn to live alongside them, and Maraksacha Reserve was born. (后来，他（摄影师）建议，与其试图赶走这些鸟，不如学会和它们一起生活，于是马拉克萨查保护区就诞生了)”可知，摄影师建议这对夫妇与鸟类共存。故选B项。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。由第三段“Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups. Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it’s among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1,600 bird species — nearly double the number found in all of Europe — within an area just slightly larger than the UK. (观鸟旅游在厄瓜多尔蓬勃发展，专业旅游团越来越多。厄瓜多尔拥有不同海拔的各种生态系统，这有助于解释为什么它是世界上鸟类多样性排名前十的国家之一。该国拥有1600多种鸟类，几乎是整个欧洲鸟类的两倍，其面积略大于英国)”可知，第三段指出厄瓜多尔因多样的生态系统和高海拔差异，成为全球鸟类多样性前十的国家，并吸引观鸟旅游，C项“是什么让厄瓜多尔成为观鸟目的地”概括了厄瓜多尔成为观鸟目的地的核心原因。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由第四段中“On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists — work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. (在累西托附近的土地上，土地所有者路易斯·阿吉拉（Luis Ajila）已经从奶牛养殖转向了保护，重新种植了树木，并向野生动物游客推广了该地——他说这项工作比农业更能维持生计)”和第五段中Luis Jr., Ajila’s son说的话“Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn’t our only motivation (野生动物旅游比农业更有利，但这不是我们唯一的动机)”“We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations. (我们的目标不仅是保护雨伞鸟，还要保护这里所有独特的野生动物，为子孙后代保护它们)”可知，Ajila家族将农场转为保护区，既保护伞鸟（长须伞鸟）又通过生态旅游获利，Ajila的儿子明确提到“旅游比农业更盈利，但保护动机同样重要”，体现经济与生态可持续性的结合。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段中“At first, things didn’t go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour. Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife — and the people who visit — flourish,” Angel Paz says. (起初，事情并没有按计划进行：第一位游客花了一个月的时间才到达，他只花了10美元就完成了四个小时的旅行。然而，从那以后，成千上万的人进行了朝圣。Angel Paz说：“近二十年来，我一直在保护我的家和它的鸟类，终于看到了野生动物和游客的蓬勃发展。”)”可知，Angel Paz的保护区初期游客稀少且收入微薄，但经过长期坚持（近20年），最终游客增多，生态与旅游业共同繁荣，B项“需要时间才能见效”准确反映了这一过程，强调耐心与坚持的重要性。故选B项。 C Most people can recall a time when they were in a bad mood after a long day at work and the barista (咖啡师) gave them a warm smile? Or maybe they overheard their bus-mate speaking German and ended up filling the morning commute (通勤) with a stimulating conversation about an upcoming trip? Strangers are around you most of the day, and what if you spend time interacting with them? A new approach urges just that. The Atlantic examines the benefits of speaking to strangers by discussing the work of psychologist Gillian Sandstrom. She considered herself an introvert (内向的人) growing up. However, about a decade ago, she started experimenting with talking to strangers. It was awkward at the beginning, but eventually Sandstrom got better at making positive connections with or smiling at the people she passed every day, and it made her feel better. Strangers represent possible relationships and interactions. If you take the time to drop a warm smile or a kind word to a stranger, at worst this interaction couldn’t be reciprocated. At best, you can sometimes have an extended conversation with a stranger, learn something interesting from them, or make a new friend. Nicholas Epley, a psychologist at the University of Chicago conducted a study, in which participants spoke to strangers on public transportation during their morning commutes. Not only did the group speaking to strangers report having a more enjoyable commute, but conversations with seatmates lasted, on average, 14.2 minutes. According to Epley, loneliness was one of the most dangerous social stressors and was even more physically harmful than overweight. “It’s larger than air pollution and it’s larger than physical activity and exercise,” he said. Making connections with those around us could ease loneliness and its harmful impacts. Considering all the benefits of conversing with strangers, why not take advantage of being around people you don’t know? Flash a smile or start up a conversation, and you may make two persons’ day better. 8. Why does the author mention the examples in the first paragraph? A. To show the value of a warm smile. B. To find spots for talking with strangers. C. To put forward the communication methods. D. To introduce the topic of interactions with strangers. 9. What does the underlined word “reciprocated” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Evaluated. B. Remembered. C. Responded. D. Employed. 10. What can we learn from Epley’s study? A. Most commuters tend to talk with strangers. B. Physical activity helps to reduce loneliness. C. Social interactions make participants less stressed. D. Participants remove their negative emotions totally. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. Social interactions for stress relief. B. Benefits of interacting with strangers. C. Skills of getting along with strangers. D. Importance of talks during commutes. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了与陌生人互动的好处及意义。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Strangers are around you most of the day, and what if you spend time interacting with them? A new approach urges just that. (你周围大部分时间都是陌生人，如果你花时间和他们互动呢?一种新的方法正是这么主张的。)”可知，作者在第一段中提到这些例子是为了引出与陌生人互动的话题。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“If you take the time to drop a warm smile or a kind word to a stranger, at worst (如果你花时间对陌生人报以温暖的微笑或说一句善意的话，最坏的情况)”可知，此处指对陌生人报以微笑或说善意的话，最坏的情况是得不到回应，由此推知，划线词reciprocated与responded意思相近，意为“回应”。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“According to Epley, loneliness was one of the most dangerous social stressors and was even more physically harmful than overweight. Making connections with those around us could ease loneliness and its harmful impacts. (根据Epley的说法，孤独是最危险的社会压力源之一，甚至比超重对身体的危害更大。与周围的人建立联系可以缓解孤独感及其有害影响。)”可推知，社交互动能让参与者压力更小。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“Strangers are around you most of the day, and what if you spend time interacting with them? A new approach urges just that. (你周围大部分时间都是陌生人，如果你花时间和他们互动呢?一种新的方法正是这么主张的。)”可知，本文主要讲述了与陌生人互动的好处。故选B。 D We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are blocked with traffic, creating fumes containing gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done? The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. There are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into. Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC: “The big leap forward will come with solid state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars.” These will charge more quickly and give cars a bigger range. Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. But some countries offer incentive, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1000 inhabitants. But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. “It’s emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built, the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.” Maybe it’s time to think about making fewer journeys or using public transport. 12. What can we infer from the question at the end of paragraph 1? A. We should not be too optimistic about the future. B. Electric vehicles may not solve the traffic problems. C. It’s not a good idea to replace petrol vehicles with electric ones. D. It is not easy to obtain a greener future by means of electric vehicles. 13. What does the underlined word “incentive” mean in paragraph 2? A. payment B. income C. encouragement D. method 14. Which statement is true according to the passage? A. Electric motoring will create a zero-carbon future. B Electric cars might not get stuck in traffic jams in the future. C. There are four obstacles on the road to global traffic being totally electric. D. Putting solid-state batteries in electric cars first will be a “great leap forward”. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Total Electric Traffic: a Long Way to Go B. Electric Vehicles: a Road to a Greener Future C. Electric Power or Petrol: a Tough Decision to Make D. Petrol and Diesel Vehicles: a Main source of Gases 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲述了电动汽车更加清洁、更加环保，但是电动汽车本身有两大问题亟待解决，而且汽车电动化并不意味着零碳，实现全球交通电动化还有很长的路要走。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“But is that easier said than done?(但这说起来容易做起来难吗？)”可知，第一段提出疑问：英国宣布从2030年开始禁止销售新型汽油和柴油汽车，这说起来容易做起来难吗？第二段第一句“The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off.(实现全球交通完全电动化的道路还有很长的路要走。)”指出实现全球交通完全电动化还有很长的路要走。由此可推测出，作者在第一段最后提出疑问是想说明用电动汽车来实现环保并不容易。故选D。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前一句“Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power.(成本是另一个可能阻碍人们转向电力的问题。)”和划线词后的“such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. (比如通过降低进口税来降低价格，以及不收取道路税和停车费。)”可知，划线词后的举例是对incentive的进一步说明，通过降低进口税来降价以及不收取道路税和停车费，这些有助于降低购买和使用成本，有助于激励人们购买，incentive意为“激励措施”，与encouragement(起激励作用的事物)意思最接近。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“Currently, battery life is an issue (目前，电池寿命是一个问题)”以及“Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. (成本是另一个可能阻碍人们转向电力的问题。)”可知，C项“在全球交通完全电动化的道路上有四个障碍”是错误的。最后一段讲到“But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future (但是科林·赫伦警告说“电动汽车”并不意味着零碳排放的未来)”可知，A项“电动汽车将创造一个零碳的未来”是错误的。第二段还讲到“The big leap forward will come with solid state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars (固态电池将带来巨大的飞跃，它将首先出现在手机和笔记本电脑中，然后才会发展为汽车)”可知，D项“首先将固态电池应用于电动汽车将是一次“大跃进””是错误的。根据第二段“Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams.(一些国家还为电动汽车提供专用车道，超越可能陷入拥堵的传统汽车。)”可知，电动汽车有专用通道，因此，“电动汽车在未来可能不会陷入交通堵塞”是正确的说法。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off.(实现全球交通完全电动化的道路还有很长的路要走。)”可知，电动汽车更加清洁、更加环保，但实现全球交通电动化还有很长的路要走，电动汽车本身有两大问题亟待解决，而且汽车电动化并不意味着零碳。由此可推测出，A项“全电动交通：任重道远”最适合作本文标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题; 母小题2.5分, 共12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 Career planning is a vital step towards achieving success and fulfillment in our lives.

Throughout her practice, there have been many unusual cases. Some were quite sad and some were even funny. But most of all she remembered one time on a rainy day a little girl came to her with her little guinea pig (豚鼠). She was in tears and asked Jenny to save her beloved pet. “This is my only friend. I really love my Dorothy,” the girl said. Jenny examined the animal and realized that it was very ill. The pig looked young. Probably, it was already sick when it was sold to the girl. The vet saw many children’s tears, and each time she felt awful. But she always found the strength to say that she couldn’t save the pet. However, this time she looked at the girl and couldn’t say anything. Jenny saw how simply the girl was dressed and thought that her family didn’t make a lot of money. Therefore, the pig wasn’t just a pet for her, but a real treasure. “Tell me your phone number, so I can call you after the operation,” Jenny said. “I’ll give you my grandmother’s phone number, because I live with her. My parents were gone. Grandma said that they had gone somewhere far and for a long time. By the way, they gave me the pig before leaving,” the girl said. Jenny wrote down the number, and when the girl left the clinic, she burst into tears. She realized her parents had died and the girl didn’t know the truth yet. How could she tell her that her guinea pig was going to die? Jenny looked at the animal helplessly and wondered what she could do. Suddenly she came up with an idea. But before doing it, she put the guinea pig to sleep, and went to the nearest pet store during lunchtime. She wanted to buy exactly the same guinea pig and give it to the girl. 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。 However, finding it wasn’t so easy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Her grandmother understood everything the moment she saw the pet, but the girl didn’t notice the change. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 However, finding it wasn’t so easy. The sick pet was black with a white spot on the nose, which was uniquely uncommon. Her attempt to find one nearby in vain, a flush of disappointment swept over Jenny. However, at the thought of the girl’s misty eyes, Jenny continuously went to extraordinary lengths to find a matching pig. Fortunately, her persistent efforts paid off. In a store 8 kilometers away from her clinic, she found an identical pig. Hardly had she returned to the clinic when she called the girl, “Honey, good news for you. Dorothy has pulled through and you can take her home!” On hearing the news, the girl hurried to the pet store with her grandmother. Her grandmother understood everything the moment she saw the pet, but the girl didn’t notice the change. Eyes twinkling with excitement, tears of joy streamed down her cheeks. Meanwhile, grandma directed a meaningful look at Jenny, a great sense of gratitude flowing in her aged eyes, saying tearfully, “My dear doctor, you’ve really saved Dorothy and also protected her owner’s sunshine.” With her hands held tightly by grandma, Jenny truly realized a tiny gesture of kindness may brighten up someone’s life. Roses given, fragrance in hand. With her heart lightening up with happiness, Jenny was determined to keep kindness alive in her clinic and guard everyone’s “Dorothy”. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了一位兽医Jenny多年来的一次特殊经历。一个小女孩带着她生病即将死去的小豚鼠来找Jenny，得知这个小豚鼠是女孩去世的父母留下的，Jenny瞒着女孩，买了一只完全一样的豚鼠送给女孩。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，找到它并不容易。”可知，第一段可描写Jenny经过一番努力终于找到了一个一模一样的豚鼠，并告诉了小女孩这个好消息。 ②由第二段首句内容“她祖母一看到这只宠物就什么都明白了，但女孩没有注意到改变。”可知，第二段可描写小女孩非常开心，她的祖母很感激Jenny以及Jenny的感受。 2. 续写线索：寻找无果——坚持不懈找到一只相似的豚鼠——打电话告知女孩——女孩兴奋——奶奶感激——感悟 3 词汇激活 行为类 ①寻找：find/search/pursue/seek ②保护：protect/safeguard/defend ③意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类 ①失望：disappointment/despair/discouragement/dismay ②喜悦：joy/delight/happiness 【点睛】【高分句型1】The sick pet was black with a white spot on the nose, which was uniquely uncommon.
