B Michael Laffoon has a vivid memory of the day he decided to piece his life back together. “I literally woke up in my van(小货车)and I thought . I can’t do this anymore because I’m going to die,’” he says. “It was just a strong feeling that I had come to the end of a chapter. ” For eight years, the Santa Cruz, California resident drifted in and out of homelessness because of a serious drug addiction. It was a frustrating, impossible lifestyle. In 2009, Laffoon learned about Homeless Garden Project at a kitchen where he was volunteering. The not-for-profit aims to lift people living on the streets of Santa Cruz out of homelessness through farming. The end goal is that they will leave the farm with stable housing and a full-time job. After a year and a half of being in the program, Laffoon was able to secure employment and stable housing. He later obtained a degree in horticulture(园艺学). “It was the first step back into normal society-the first open door,” he says. Trainees are employed to grow fruit, vegetables, flowers and herbs on the farm. They get paid a wage, are given basic job skills training and are matched with a social worker to work through specific goals. The project has helped close to 1,000 people. Over the past five years, 96 percent of graduates have obtained jobs or stable income and 86 percent have found housing. The project’s staffers say that the project has always had a strong element of community, which is central to the healing process of its trainees, as they often feel like they’ve lost their sense of belonging. Laffoon says that while he was homeless, he spent a lot of his time “trying to be invisible” and felt secluded from the rest of society. The project gave him meaningful work and a sense of belonging, which helped him get back on his feet. Ella Fleming, the project’s farm manager, has seen how growing food can have a life-changing and inspirational impact on trainees. “We provide a place where it’s safe, it’s nurturing, it’s healthy and there’s an exchange that happens,” she says. “When you’re caring for a plant to try to get it to grow, you’re also giving yourself some self-care to know that you can grow,”she says. 4. What kind of person is Laffoon described as in the text? A. A person who fights his drug addiction. B. A person who has experienced homelessness. C. A person who gets stable housing and a full-time job. D. A person who benefits from Homeless Garden Project. 5. What is the purpose of Homeless Garden Project for homeless people? A To employ them to work on the farm. B. To provide them with housing and work. C. To enable them to make a living in society. D To give them opportunities for volunteering. 6. What does the underlined word “secluded” in paragraph 5 indicate? A. Laffoon felt alone in the world. B. Laffoon felt sorry for himself. C. Laffoon felt different from others. D. Laffoon felt unsatisfied with society. 7. Which of the following can best describe Homeless Garden Project? A. It’s flexible. B. It’s enjoyable. C. It’s inspiring. D. It’s comforting. C We grow up going to school and learning about “common core” subjects, along with others. We are also given information about things from the media, governments, and the Internet. We are conditioned by all of this information to see reality. But all that learning is not as important as it’s made out to be. In fact, it can be limiting you to a life of mediocrity (平庸). The more you learn about things, whether they are true or not, the more rigid your reality becomes. The less possible certain things seem to be limiting your ability to imagine possibilities as a child does. This goes for information as well as applied activities. This is not to say that you should not learn anything. The key is, you should be able to learn, unlearn, and relearn. You should be able to get rid of information that becomes contradicted by something with more evidence supporting it, and reprogram over things which no longer serve your continued evolution. The sooner you allow yourself to go through the process of unlearning, the easier it will be to unlearn things which are limiting your ability to see things as the limitless possibilities they are. As Seneca once said,“The mind is slow to unlearn what it learned early. ” This is why you see old people become set in their ways,being imprisoned by the same beliefs they had in their youth. Once those beliefs are formed in the brain, it will take something extraordinary to reprogram over them. You can go about unlearning by making a list of a few beliefs you have about things which you feel may be holding you back from evolving. Then explore what else is possible in regards to those areas and take action. When you come across information and receive greater understanding on something, make it a part of your reality and belief system. Remind yourself that even though some new information has replaced what you believed was true and worth continuing to support, it may one day also be replaced by something even more consistent with truth and more helpful with your evolution. Learning to unlearn is the highest form of learning. You will begin to notice you are growing once again. 8. When should you unlearn things? A. When they become boring. B. When they are no longer helpful. C. When they are against your beliefs. D. When they are difficult to learn. 9. What is the purpose of mentioning old people in paragraph 4? A. To prove that the mind is slow to unlearn. B. To prove that unlearning should be done early. C. To show that it is hard for young people to unlearn. D. To show that it’s unnecessary for old people to unlearn. 10. What message does the author intend to get to us in paragraph 6? A. Unlearning never ends. B. Unlearning requires patience. C. Unlearning is a slow process. D. Unlearning may be unsuccessful. 11. What advice can be given according to the concept of unlearning? A. Never learn useless things. B. Always believe in yourself. C. Always seek something better. D. Never try to get too much. D Not only do we humans enjoy talking-and talking a lot-we also do so in very different ways: about 6,000 languages are spoken today worldwide. How this wealth of expression developed, however, largely remains unknown. A group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics have now found that word-orders in languages from different language families develop differently. This contradicts the common understanding that word-order develops in accordance with a set of universal rules, applicable to all languages. The researchers have concluded that languages do not primarily follow innate(固有的) rules of language processing in the brain. Rather, sentence structure is determined by the historical context in which a language develops. The researchers analysed 301 languages from four major language families: Austronesian, Indo-European, Bantu and Uto-Aztecan. They focused on the order of the different sentence parts, such as “verb-object”, “preposition-noun”, or “relative clause-noun”, and whether their position in the sentence influenced the other parts of the sentence. In this way, the researchers wanted to find out whether the position of the verb has other syntactic(句法的) consequences: if the verb is placed before the object, for example, “The player kicks the ball”, is the preposition also placed before the noun (“into the goal”)? Such a pattern is observed in many languages, but is it a common feature of how languages develop? “Our study shows that different processes occur in different language families,” says Michael Dunn,the lead researcher. “The evolution of language does not follow one universal set of rules.” For example, the “verb-object” pattern influences the “preposition-noun” pattern in the Austronesian and Indo-European languages, but not in the same way, and not in the other two language families. “Cultural evolution has much more influence on language development than universal factors. Language structure is apparently not so much biologically determined as it is shaped by its ancestry,” says Michael Dunn. 12. What does the underlined “This” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. People enjoy talking a lot in different ways. B. About 6,000 languages are spoken today worldwide. C. The group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute. D. Word-orders in different languages develop differently. 13. Why did the researchers analyse the 301 languages? A. To find out which language family they belonged to. B. To find out whether they had an influence on sports. C. To find out how sentences in them were formed. D. To find out whether they developed the same way or not. 14. What can be known from the study about the language development? A It’s a natural process. B. It’s a cultural process. C. It’s a universal process. D. It’s a biological process. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. How Languages Changed in History B. What Rules Language Development Obeys C Historical Context Guides Language Development D. Sentence Structure Determines Language Development 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。 Dreaming big doesn’t mean we suddenly want to be a millionaire or become famous. That’s because “bigger” is a relative term. If we currently have no dreams, dreaming bigger might just mean a small goal that we want to reach. But even that is not always easy. So how do you start dreaming bigger? Cultivate Confidence. To achieve big things, you have to believe that you can. Therefore, the first thing we need to dream big is to get a confidence boost. Try to remember a time when you succeeded in doing something you set your mind to. ____16____ Face Fear of Failure. The fear of doing something big can be intense. What if we fail? What then? If this sounds like you, it may be helpful to develop the belief that growth and learning are more important than success or other people’s opinions. ____17____ That way we can better enjoy the pursuit, even if it ultimately does result in failure. Face Fear of Success. Success can mean different things to different people. For example, success might mean feeling like the odd one out in your family or friend group. ____18____ Or, it could lead to jealousy from others. But taking a closer outlook at these fears and thinking about how you might deal with them can help you move through them. Use Your Imagination. ____19____ Maybe you imagine yourself owning your own business, having a big family, or traveling all over the world. Then does living this life feel good or authentic? Use this exercise to better understand which big dreams are a good fit for you. Enjoy the Process. Sometimes we end up spending so much time focusing on big dreams that we forget to enjoy the process. Indeed, big dreams can help us imagine a life or a future we’ve never known. ____20____ If we don’t enjoy the process, it’s going to be tough to get there. A. But big dreams take time. B. We are taking control of our lives. C. Striving towards dreams can decrease well-being. D. It might mean more responsibility than you really want. E. Use your experiences as inspiration and self-motivation. F. Start by visualizing a variety of different possible exciting outcomes. G. It can help you shift your focus to the journey instead of the end goal 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。 Sports are important in our family.

Seeing the busy passers-by stopped by his performance, Eric, a music lover who just graduated from college, wore a big smile on his face. With deep passion for music, he showed up in the station in his spare time, singing and playing the guitar to people travelling to and from the subway station. With the melodious (悦耳的) song coming to an end, hearty applause burst out. As usual, Eric expressed his gratitude, nodding his head with a smile. “Man, awesome! An outstanding performance!” Approached a man, holding the hand of a little girl in a ponytail (马尾辫), aged about four. “Park, a producer of a record company.” The man introduced himself, holding out his hand. “Would you like to give it a try in my company?” Out of politeness, Eric shook hands with him in amazement. “I haven’t seen somebody this good in a long time! You are a beautiful scenery of this city, with such a beautiful voice!” Park admired. Suddenly, a phone call interrupted their conversation. Park briefly invited Eric to meet later in the same place and walked away to answer the call. Seeing Park off, Eric did realize what had happened, with warm current flowing from his head to toes. It was the first time that he had earned such kind of recognition, which was totally out of his expectation. “A beautiful scenery of the city, with a beautiful voice!” Eric repeated the words, cleaning his guitar and preparing for the next performance. At that time, he caught sight of a little girl in a ponytail standing in a corner, weeping and looking around. Carrying his guitar, Eric approached her and squatted (蹲) down, “What’s wrong with you, honey?” 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。 “I can’t find my daddy.” The girl burst out crying. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The girl calmed down in Eric’s song when a man rushed into the office of the subway station. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 湖北省随州市部分高中2024--2025学年下学期2月联考 高二英语试题 本试卷共10页，全卷满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1、答题前，请将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的制定位置。 2、选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3、非选择题作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡对应的答题区域内，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4、考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 第一部分 听力 (共两节、满分30分) 做题时先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，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.

I can’t do this anymore because I’m going to die,’” he says. “It was just a strong feeling that I had come to the end of a chapter. ” For eight years, the Santa Cruz, California resident drifted in and out of homelessness because of a serious drug addiction. It was a frustrating, impossible lifestyle. In 2009, Laffoon learned about Homeless Garden Project at a kitchen where he was volunteering. The not-for-profit aims to lift people living on the streets of Santa Cruz out of homelessness through farming. The end goal is that they will leave the farm with stable housing and a full-time job. After a year and a half of being in the program, Laffoon was able to secure employment and stable housing. He later obtained a degree in horticulture(园艺学). “It was the first step back into normal society-the first open door,” he says. Trainees are employed to grow fruit, vegetables, flowers and herbs on the farm. They get paid a wage, are given basic job skills training and are matched with a social worker to work through specific goals. The project has helped close to 1,000 people. Over the past five years, 96 percent of graduates have obtained jobs or stable income and 86 percent have found housing. The project’s staffers say that the project has always had a strong element of community, which is central to the healing process of its trainees, as they often feel like they’ve lost their sense of belonging. Laffoon says that while he was homeless, he spent a lot of his time “trying to be invisible” and felt secluded from the rest of society. The project gave him meaningful work and a sense of belonging, which helped him get back on his feet. Ella Fleming, the project’s farm manager, has seen how growing food can have a life-changing and inspirational impact on trainees. “We provide a place where it’s safe, it’s nurturing, it’s healthy and there’s an exchange that happens,” she says. “When you’re caring for a plant to try to get it to grow, you’re also giving yourself some self-care to know that you can grow,”she says. 4. What kind of person is Laffoon described as in the text? A. A person who fights his drug addiction. B. A person who has experienced homelessness. C. A person who gets stable housing and a full-time job. D. A person who benefits from Homeless Garden Project. 5. What is the purpose of Homeless Garden Project for homeless people? A. To employ them to work on the farm. B. To provide them with housing and work. C. To enable them to make a living in society. D. To give them opportunities for volunteering. 6. What does the underlined word “secluded” in paragraph 5 indicate? A. Laffoon felt alone in the world. B. Laffoon felt sorry for himself. C. Laffoon felt different from others. D. Laffoon felt unsatisfied with society. 7. Which of the following can best describe Homeless Garden Project? A. It’s flexible. B. It’s enjoyable. C. It’s inspiring. D. It’s comforting. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个非营利性组织Homeless Garden Project，通过提供培训帮助无家可归的人们种植技术，从而得到稳定的居所和正常的生活。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“After a year and a half of being in the program, Laffoon was able to secure employment and stable housing. He later obtained a degree in horticulture(园艺学). “It was the first step back into normal society-the first open door,” he says.(在参加了一年半的项目后，Laffoon获得了工作和稳定的住房。他后来获得了园艺学位。‘这是回归正常社会的第一步——打开的第一扇门，’他说到)”可知，本文主要介绍一个慈善项目Homeless Garden Project，Laffoon一开始因毒瘾而居无定所，生活没有保障，参加了这个项目后，生活有了很好的改观，由此可知，他受益于该项目。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The not-for-profit aims to lift people living on the streets of Santa Cruz out of homelessness through farming. The end goal is that they will leave the farm with stable housing and a full-time job. (这家非营利组织旨在通过农业来帮助圣克鲁斯街头的无家可归者。最终目标是，他们离开农场后，有稳定的住房和一份全职工作)”可知，这个组织主要是帮助无家可归的人们学到种植技术，从而能够自己谋生。故选C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Laffoon says that while he was homeless, he spent a lot of his time ‘trying to be invisible’(Laffoon说，当他无家可归时，他花了很多时间试图隐身)”可知，他无家可归时，是没有社会交往的，被人忽视，由此可知，他应该是孤独的，没有归属感，与周围社区居民是没有交往的。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When you’re caring for a plant to try to get it to grow, you’re also giving yourself some self-care to know that you can grow(当你照顾一棵植物，试图让它生长时，你也在给自己一些自我照顾，让自己知道自己可以生长)”可知，该项目负责任说。他们主要是让这些人在学习种植照顾植物的过程中，找到信心，相信自己只要努力也会成长，越来越好。由此可知，这个项目是通过激励启发的方式让这些人获得谋生能力。故选C项。 C We grow up going to school and learning about “common core” subjects, along with others. We are also given information about things from the media, governments, and the Internet. We are conditioned by all of this information to see reality. But all that learning is not as important as it’s made out to be. In fact, it can be limiting you to a life of mediocrity (平庸). The more you learn about things, whether they are true or not, the more rigid your reality becomes. The less possible certain things seem to be limiting your ability to imagine possibilities as a child does. This goes for information as well as applied activities. This is not to say that you should not learn anything. The key is, you should be able to learn, unlearn, and relearn. You should be able to get rid of information that becomes contradicted by something with more evidence supporting it, and reprogram over things which no longer serve your continued evolution. The sooner you allow yourself to go through the process of unlearning, the easier it will be to unlearn things which are limiting your ability to see things as the limitless possibilities they are. As Seneca once said,“The mind is slow to unlearn what it learned early. ” This is why you see old people become set in their ways,being imprisoned by the same beliefs they had in their youth. Once those beliefs are formed in the brain, it will take something extraordinary to reprogram over them. You can go about unlearning by making a list of a few beliefs you have about things which you feel may be holding you back from evolving. Then explore what else is possible in regards to those areas and take action. When you come across information and receive greater understanding on something, make it a part of your reality and belief system. Remind yourself that even though some new information has replaced what you believed was true and worth continuing to support, it may one day also be replaced by something even more consistent with truth and more helpful with your evolution. Learning to unlearn is the highest form of learning. You will begin to notice you are growing once again. 8. When should you unlearn things? A. When they become boring. B. When they are no longer helpful. C. When they are against your beliefs. D. When they are difficult to learn. 9. What is the purpose of mentioning old people in paragraph 4? A. To prove that the mind is slow to unlearn. B. To prove that unlearning should be done early. C. To show that it is hard for young people to unlearn. D. To show that it’s unnecessary for old people to unlearn. 10. What message does the author intend to get to us in paragraph 6? A. Unlearning never ends. B. Unlearning requires patience. C. Unlearning is a slow process. D. Unlearning may be unsuccessful. 11. What advice can be given according to the concept of unlearning? A. Never learn useless things. B. Always believe in yourself. C. Always seek something better. D. Never try to get too much. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了对于“unlearning”这种舍弃原先所学，以重新学习更好的东西的学习方式，做得越早，就越容易做。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“You should be able to get rid of information that becomes contradicted by something with more evidence supporting it, and reprogram over things which no longer serve your continued evolution.(你应该能够摆脱那些与有更多证据支持它的东西相矛盾的信息，并重新编程那些不再为你的持续进化服务的东西。)”可知，当你学习的东西不再有帮助时，你应该抛弃它们。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。第四段中“The sooner you allow yourself to go through the process of unlearning, the easier it will be to unlearn things which are limiting your ability to see things as the limitless possibilities they are.(你越早允许自己完成忘记的过程，就越容易忘记那些限制你看到事物无限可能性的东西。)”为论点，基本内容为：对于“unlearning”这种舍弃原先所学，以重新学习更好的东西的学习方式，做得越早，就越容易做。“As Seneca once said, The mind is slow to unlearn what it learned early. This is why you see old people become set in their ways, being imprisoned by the same beliefs they had in their youth. Once those beliefs are formed in the brain, it will take something extraordinary to reprogram over them.(正如塞内加曾经说过的：“头脑是不容易忘记早期所学的东西的。”这就是为什么你会看到老年人变得固步自封，被他们年轻时的信仰所禁锢。一旦这些信念在大脑中形成，就需要一些非凡的东西来重新编程。)”则为论据：舍弃早先所学的东西，这在大脑中是一个缓慢的过程。所以人若老了，思维便固化了，易受年轻时所形成的信念的束缚，就很难去进行“unlearning”了。所以本段提到“old people”，其目的是引出支撑论点的论据。故选B。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第六段“Remind yourself that even though some new information has replaced what you believed was true and worth continuing to support, it may one day also be replaced by something even more consistent with truth and more helpful with your evolution.( 提醒自己，即使一些新的信息已经取代了你认为是正确的、值得继续支持的东西，但它可能有一天也会被一些更符合事实、对你的进化更有帮助的东西取代。)”可知，本段的基本意思是今天用来取代旧事物的新事物有朝一日又会被更好的事物所取代，言下之意是这种取代的过程是不断持续的。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“The sooner you allow yourself to go through the process of unlearning, the easier it will be to unlearn things which are limiting your ability to see things as the limitless possibilities they are.(你越早允许自己完成忘记的过程，就越容易忘记那些限制你看到事物无限可能性的东西。)”和第六段“Remind yourself that even though some new information has replaced what you believed was true and worth continuing to support, it may one day also be replaced by something even more consistent with truth and more helpful with your evolution.( 提醒自己，即使一些新的信息已经取代了你认为是正确的、值得继续支持的东西，但它可能有一天也会被一些更符合事实、对你的进化更有帮助的东西取代。)”可知，“unlearning”的基本概念是舍弃原先所学，以便重新学习更好的东西。由此可推知，“unlearning”的概念建议永远追求更好的东西。故选C。 D Not only do we humans enjoy talking-and talking a lot-we also do so in very different ways: about 6,000 languages are spoken today worldwide. How this wealth of expression developed, however, largely remains unknown. A group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics have now found that word-orders in languages from different language families develop differently. This contradicts the common understanding that word-order develops in accordance with a set of universal rules, applicable to all languages. The researchers have concluded that languages do not primarily follow innate(固有的) rules of language processing in the brain. Rather, sentence structure is determined by the historical context in which a language develops. The researchers analysed 301 languages from four major language families: Austronesian, Indo-European, Bantu and Uto-Aztecan. They focused on the order of the different sentence parts, such as “verb-object”, “preposition-noun”, or “relative clause-noun”, and whether their position in the sentence influenced the other parts of the sentence. In this way, the researchers wanted to find out whether the position of the verb has other syntactic(句法的) consequences: if the verb is placed before the object, for example, “The player kicks the ball”, is the preposition also placed before the noun (“into the goal”)? Such a pattern is observed in many languages, but is it a common feature of how languages develop? “Our study shows that different processes occur in different language families,” says Michael Dunn,the lead researcher. “The evolution of language does not follow one universal set of rules.” For example, the “verb-object” pattern influences the “preposition-noun” pattern in the Austronesian and Indo-European languages, but not in the same way, and not in the other two language families. “Cultural evolution has much more influence on language development than universal factors. Language structure is apparently not so much biologically determined as it is shaped by its ancestry,” says Michael Dunn. 12. What does the underlined “This” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. People enjoy talking a lot in different ways. B. About 6,000 languages are spoken today worldwide. C. The group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute. D. Word-orders in different languages develop differently. 13. Why did the researchers analyse the 301 languages? A. To find out which language family they belonged to. B. To find out whether they had an influence on sports. C. To find out how sentences in them were formed. D. To find out whether they developed the same way or not. 14. What can be known from the study about the language development? A. It’s a natural process. B. It’s a cultural process. C. It’s a universal process. D. It’s a biological process. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. How Languages Changed in History B. What Rules Language Development Obeys C. Historical Context Guides Language Development D. Sentence Structure Determines Language Development 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述历史语境指导语言的发展。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“A group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics have now found that word-orders in languages from different language families develop differently. (马克斯·普朗克心理语言学研究所的一组研究人员现在发现，不同语系的语言中的语序发展不同。)”和第二段“This contradicts the common understanding that word-order develops in accordance with a set of universal rules, applicable to all languages. (这与普遍的理解相矛盾，即语序是根据一套适用于所有语言的普遍规则发展的。)”可知，此处的This指上段中的“word-orders in languages from different language families develop differently(不同语系的语言中的语序发展不同)”。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The researchers analysed 301 languages from four major language families: Austronesian, Indo-European, Bantu and Uto-Aztecan. ... Such a pattern is observed in many languages, but is it a common feature of how languages develop? (研究人员分析了来自四个主要语系的301种语言：南岛语系、印欧语系、班图语系和乌托阿兹特克语系。……在许多语言中都可以观察到这种模式，但这是语言发展的共同特征吗？)”可知，研究人员对这些语言中句子的词序进行研究，看这些语言的发展过程是否相同。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Cultural evolution has much more influence on language development than universal factors. (文化进化对语言发展的影响远大于普遍因素。)”可知，语言的发展也是文化进化的过程。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The researchers have concluded that languages do not primarily follow innate(固有的) rules of language processing in the brain. Rather, sentence structure is determined by the historical context in which a language develops. (研究人员得出的结论是，语言并不是主要遵循大脑中语言处理的固有规则。相反，句子结构是由语言发展的历史语境决定的。)”可知，这篇文章主要讲述历史语境指导语言发展，C项“历史语境引导语言发展”适合做文章标题，故选C。 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。 Dreaming big doesn’t mean we suddenly want to be a millionaire or become famous.

Try to remember a time when you succeeded in doing something you set your mind to. ____16____ Face Fear of Failure. The fear of doing something big can be intense. What if we fail? What then? If this sounds like you, it may be helpful to develop the belief that growth and learning are more important than success or other people’s opinions. ____17____ That way we can better enjoy the pursuit, even if it ultimately does result in failure. Face Fear of Success. Success can mean different things to different people. For example, success might mean feeling like the odd one out in your family or friend group. ____18____ Or, it could lead to jealousy from others. But taking a closer outlook at these fears and thinking about how you might deal with them can help you move through them. Use Your Imagination. ____19____ Maybe you imagine yourself owning your own business, having a big family, or traveling all over the world. Then does living this life feel good or authentic? Use this exercise to better understand which big dreams are a good fit for you. Enjoy the Process. Sometimes we end up spending so much time focusing on big dreams that we forget to enjoy the process.

What then? If this sounds like you, it may be helpful to develop the belief that growth and learning are more important than success or other people’s opinions.(如果我们失败了怎么办?然后什么?如果这听起来像你，那么培养成长和学习比成功或他人意见更重要的信念可能会有所帮助)”推知，空处应陈述为什么要培养“成长和学习比成功或他人意见更重要”的信念，G选项“It can help you shift your focus to the journey instead of the end goal.(它可以帮助你将注意力转移到过程而不是最终目标上)”符合题意，it指代上文的提到的那个信念，故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Success can mean different things to different people. For example, success might mean feeling like the odd one out in your family or friend group.(成功对不同的人有不同的含义。例如，成功可能意味着感觉自己是家人或朋友群中的异类)”以及下文“Or, it could lead to jealousy from others.(或者，它可能会导致别人的嫉妒)”可知，空处内容应与上下文一致，陈述成功的对某些人的含义。D选项“It might mean more responsibility than you really want.(这可能意味着比你想要的更多的责任)”符合语境，故选D项。 【19题详解】 根据小标题“Use Your Imagination.(使用你的想象)”以及下文“Maybe you imagine yourself owning your own business, having a big family, or traveling all over the world.

Videos 39. is wrapped 40. working 41. with 42. the 43. provincial 44. to facilitate 45. compared 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是由于社交媒体的推荐，淄博烧烤在中国社交媒体平台上迅速走红。 【36题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：“我认识的一家烧烤店的老板让我周一回来，这样周末就可以给外地游客腾地方了”，在外地打工的山东省淄博市人Huang Yang说。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词native是人，因此空格处用关系代词who/that，故填who/that。 【37题详解】 考查连词。句意：他最近回家探亲，想去吃烧烤，但在四家不同的餐馆都找不到座位。由“wanted to have some barbecue”和“he failed to find seats in four different restaurants”可知，前后两句话是转折关系，因此用表转折的but，故填but。 【38题详解】 考查名词的复数。句意：小红书等网站上的视频显示，成千上万的人前往这座城市品尝当地的烧烤，他们说这种烧烤裹在煎饼里，味道“独特”。video是可数名词，不止一个，因此空格处用复数，位于句首，首字母大写，故填Videos。 【39题详解】 考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：小红书等网站上的视频显示，成千上万的人前往这座城市品尝当地的烧烤，他们说这种烧烤裹在煎饼里，味道“独特”。烧烤是被包裹在煎饼里，句子用被动语态，且描述客观事实，因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态，which指代的先行词barbecue是不可数名词，因此空格处是is wrapped。故填is wrapped。 【40题详解】 考查时态，主谓一致和省略。句意：淄博利用烧烤热，全力推广当地旅游资源，同时努力确保游客安全和旅游产品的质量。while引导的时间状语从句意为“当它努力确保游客安全和旅游产品的质量”，表示客观事实，时态用现在进行时，是while it is working to ensure the safety of visitors and the quality of tourism products，从句中主语和主句中主语一致，且从句中有be动词时，可省略从句中的主语和be动词，因此空格处是working。故填working。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：为了让游客有一个愉快的体验，市场监管机构对烧烤店进行了检查，以确保食物安全。provide sb. with sth.是固定短语，意为“为某人提供某物”，因此空格处是介词with，故填with。 【42题详解】 考查定冠词。句意：警方增加了巡逻人员以确保游客的安全。根据语境可知，句子表示“警方增加了巡逻人员以确保游客的安全”，“……的数量”是the number of，因此空格处是the，故填the。 【43题详解】 考查形容词。句意：铁路部门甚至在周末在省会济南和淄博之间额外增加了两列高速列车，以满足不断增长的乘客需求。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词capital，province的形容词是provincial，意为“省的”，故填provincial。 【44题详解】 考查不定式。句意：当地政府现在发布了一张烧烤店地图，并新增了21条公交线路，以方便城市交通。根据语境和句意可知，空格处用不定式表目的，故填to facilitate。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：根据按需服务平台美团的数据，与2019年相比，淄博即将到来的假期的住宿预订量增长了800%，增长率在山东省排名第一。句中谓语是has seen，空格处用非谓语动词，Zibo是被比较，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，故填compared。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 你校英语俱乐部正在举办主题为“A Shiny Summer for Graduation Season”的英文征文活动。请你写一篇短文投稿。内容包括： 1. 毕业季暑期的意义； 2. 你的打算； 3. 对同学的建议。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A Shiny Summer for Graduation Season ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Hello, everyone.

Seeing the busy passers-by stopped by his performance, Eric, a music lover who just graduated from college, wore a big smile on his face. With deep passion for music, he showed up in the station in his spare time, singing and playing the guitar to people travelling to and from the subway station. With the melodious (悦耳的) song coming to an end, hearty applause burst out. As usual, Eric expressed his gratitude, nodding his head with a smile. “Man, awesome! An outstanding performance!” Approached a man, holding the hand of a little girl in a ponytail (马尾辫), aged about four. “Park, a producer of a record company.” The man introduced himself, holding out his hand. “Would you like to give it a try in my company?” Out of politeness, Eric shook hands with him in amazement. “I haven’t seen somebody this good in a long time! You are a beautiful scenery of this city, with such a beautiful voice!” Park admired. Suddenly, a phone call interrupted their conversation. Park briefly invited Eric to meet later in the same place and walked away to answer the call. Seeing Park off, Eric did realize what had happened, with warm current flowing from his head to toes. It was the first time that he had earned such kind of recognition, which was totally out of his expectation. “A beautiful scenery of the city, with a beautiful voice!” Eric repeated the words, cleaning his guitar and preparing for the next performance. At that time, he caught sight of a little girl in a ponytail standing in a corner, weeping and looking around. Carrying his guitar, Eric approached her and squatted (蹲) down, “What’s wrong with you, honey?” 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。 “I can’t find my daddy.” The girl burst out crying. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The girl calmed down in Eric’s song when a man rushed into the office of the subway station. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Version 1 “I can’t find my daddy.” The girl burst out crying. Seeing her weep turning into the helpless cry, Eric looked around nervously. “How to find her father in such a crowd?” Suddenly, the office of the subway station came into view. Having packed up his things, Eric squeezed his way to the office, holding her tiny hand. There he informed the staff of the situation. After the broadcast, the girl still cried, with her eyes swollen. At the sight of the guitar, it hit Eric that music might comfort the anxious girl. Soon, a beautiful voice lingered around the room. The girl calmed down in Eric’s song when a man rushed into the office of the subway station. “Daddy, I am here!” The little girl screamed, throwing herself to her daddy’s arms and cracked a big smile. Casting a glance to the man, Eric recognized that it was Park. Knowing the whole story, Park conveyed his gratitude: “You are truly a beautiful scenery of the city, not only with your beautiful voice, but with your heart, actually.” He added, “Again, would you like to join our company?” This time Eric answered with a smile, “That’s a deal.” Version 2 “I can’t find my daddy.” The girl burst out crying. Eric was softly comforting her when he suddenly noticed the office of the subway station. He thought he’d better take the girl there and broadcast the message, which may help find her parents. But the appointment with Park crossed his mind. “What if I miss the meeting with Park?” Shaking his head, Eric gently took the girl’s hand, headed to the office and turned to the staff for help. Looking at the tearful girl, Eric hit upon an idea. Clearing his throat, he took up his guitar. The girl calmed down in Eric’s song when a man rushed into the office of the subway station. “Daddy!” the little girl shouted excitedly and threw herself to the man like a little merry bird. To Eric’s surprise, it was Park! He met him again, in such an occasion! “I thought that I may not have the chance to meet you again.” said Eric, with a shy smile. “Glad to see you again. Thank you so much!” Park replied with gratitude. “Daddy. Eric sings beautiful songs.” “Yes, honey.”Park said, “Eric sings beautiful songs because he has a beautiful heart.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Eric怀着对音乐的热爱，他在业余时间出现在地铁站，为往返地铁站的人们唱歌和弹吉他，他的表演受到很多的人的喜欢，有一天，唱片公司的制作人Park牵着女儿出现在Eric面前，他邀请Eric去他的公司试试，Park突然走开接电话，Eric准备下一个演出，这时他看见一个扎着马尾辫的小女孩站在一个角落里，边哭边环顾四周，Eric走过去问她怎么了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我找不到我爸爸了。”女孩突然哭了起来。”可知，第一段可描写Eric帮助女孩找父亲，用音乐安抚女孩。 ②由第二段首句内容“当一个男人冲进地铁站的办公室时，女孩在埃里克的歌中平静下来。”可知，第二段可描写女孩找到父亲，Park感谢Eric，邀请他加入自己的公司。 2.续写线索：紧张地环顾四周——带女孩去地铁站的办公室——通过广播找女孩父亲——用音乐安慰女孩——女孩父亲赶来——认出那人是Park——Park感激并表扬Eric——邀请Eric 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①前往：squeeze one’s way to/push one’s way to ②安慰： comfort/console ③认出：recognize/identify 情绪类 ①紧张：nervously/tensely ②感谢：convey one’s gratitude/express one’s thankfulness 【点睛】[高分句型1] At the sight of the guitar, it hit Eric that music might comfort the anxious girl.
