Take a look at some of the world’s greatest bridges. THE MOST TERRIFYING — Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge If you’re afraid of heights you might not want to walk along the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in central China, which is recognized as the world’s longest and highest glass bridge. It is suspended 300 meters above the ground. As visitors walk across its 99 glass panels, they can see the steep drop beneath them. Completed in December 2015 at a cost of approximately £2.6 million, the bridge’s safety was tested by Chinese officials who struck it with hammers and drove a car over it. THE TILTING（倾斜的）BRIDGE — Gateshead Millennium Bridge Located in the north-east of England, the Gateshead Millennium Bridge is the world’s first tilting bridge. A tilting bridge is a moving bridge that uses motors to lift the arching structure — rather than opening in the middle and lifting up like a drawbridge — to allow ships to pass underneath. It features eight motors and can tilt at about 40° C in four and a half minutes, making it truly unique. The bridge opened to the public in 2001 and spans (跨越) the River Tyne. THE LONGEST BRIDGE — Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge At an enormous 102 miles, Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge in China is the world’s longest bridge. Its length is the same as the distance from Birmingham to London, and it was constructed by a workforce of 10,000 people over four years. Around 450,000 tons of steel was used in its construction, and it is so stable that it can stand 8-magnitude (震级) earthquakes or being hit by a 300,000-ton ship. It can even cope with the power of a strong typhoon. 1. What might stop tourists from visiting the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge according to the text? A. The fear of heights. B. The number of visitors. C. The extreme weather. D. The length of the bridge. 2. What can we know about the Gateshead Millennium Bridge? A. It cost almost £2.6 million. B. It opened to the public in 2015. C. It has eight motors in operation. D. It is the longest tilting bridge worldwide. 3. What do these three bridges have in common? A. They span the River Tyne. B. They can tilt at about 40°. C. They are the wonders of engineering. D. They can stand 8-magnitude earthquakes. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍三座世界著名桥梁，分别是中国张家界玻璃桥、英国盖茨黑德千禧桥和中国丹阳-昆山大桥，展现它们的独特特点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据THE MOST TERRIFYING — Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge部分中的“If you’re afraid of heights, you might not want to walk along the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in central China, which is recognized as the world’s longest and highest glass bridge.(如果你有恐高症，你可能不会想走在中国中部的张家界玻璃桥上，它被认为是世界上最长最高的玻璃桥。)”可知，恐高可能会阻止游客参观张家界玻璃桥。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据THE TILTING (倾斜的) BRIDGE — Gateshead Millennium Bridge部分中的“It features eight motors and can tilt at about 40° C in four and a half minutes, making it truly unique.(它配备了八个电机，能在四分半钟内倾斜约40度，这使它极具特色。)”可知，盖茨黑德千禧桥有八个运行的电机。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Bridges can reach incredible heights or stretch vast distances. Take a look at some of the world’s greatest bridges.(桥梁可以达到惊人的高度，也可以延伸到广阔的距离。来看看一些世界上最伟大的桥梁吧。)”以及分别对三座桥梁的介绍：张家界玻璃桥是世界最长最高玻璃桥、盖茨黑德千禧桥是世界首座倾斜桥、丹阳-昆山大桥是世界最长桥梁，且都具备独特的工程设计和性能可知，它们都是工程奇迹。故选C项。 B Rene Compean was familiar with Angeles National Forest. But after walking along a new path last April, the 45-year-old mechanic was lost. As darkness fell, his initial calm turned to fear. Equipped only with a liter of water, a power bar, and a nearly dead cell phone, Compean was unprepared for anything more than the two-hour hike he’d planned. Climbing to an elevation (高度) of 7,000 feet, he finally found a bar of signal and texted a friend: “SOS. My phone is going to die. I’m lost.”, attaching a photo of his surroundings. All he could do then was wait and hope, staying awake after spotting two mountain lions and a bear. Sixty miles away in Ventura County, the search-and-rescue teams had spent the previous night unsuccessfully looking for Compean, so they released the photo to the public, hoping someone might recognize the location. Ben Kuo, a 47-year-old with a unique hobby of identifying filming locations, saw the blurry (模糊不清的) image of Compean’s legs against a backdrop of rocks and vegetation. He immediately opened a satellite map on his laptop and began narrowing his search. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was patches of greenery. After comparing it to the satellite map, Kuo realized something: “He’s got to be on the south side because there’s not really any green valleys on the north side.” That finding tightened his search, leading him to an area that matched the landscape in the image. The final step was cross-referencing the original photo with 3D images of the area from Google Earth. The locations matched! Soon, a search-and-rescue team helicopter was in the air, heading for Compean. After spending 27 hours alone in the wilderness, Compean cried, “I’m safe!” Compean’s story probably could have been vastly different if it weren’t for the quick thinking of a total stranger with strong satellite skills and a sharp eye for detail. 4. How did Compean indicate his situation when he was lost? A. By making a phone call. B. By sending a text message. C. By shouting for help. D. By using an online map. 5. What initial action did Ben Kuo take after seeing Compean’s photo? A. He posted the photo on social media. B. He opened a satellite map on his laptop. C. He compared the original photo with the 3D images. D. He called the search-and-rescue team for assistance. 6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of Ben Kuo locating Compean. B. Ben Kuo’s observation of the landscape. C. The role of technology in search. D. The importance of vegetation in mapping. 7. Which of the following can best describe Ben Kuo? A. Calm and adventurous. B. Helpful and ambitious. C. Knowledgeable and friendly. D. Observant and fast-acting. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述机械师Rene Compean在森林迷路，47岁的Ben Kuo凭借卫星地图技能和敏锐观察力帮搜救队找到他的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Climbing to an elevation (高度) of 7,000 feet, he finally found a bar of signal and texted a friend: “SOS. My phone is going to die. I’m lost.”, attaching a photo of his surroundings.(爬到7000英尺的高度后，他终于找到一格信号，给朋友发了条短信：“紧急求救。我的手机快没电了。我迷路了。”，还附上了一张周围环境的照片。)”可知，Compean迷路时通过发送短信来告知自己的处境。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Ben Kuo, a 47-year-old with a unique hobby of identifying filming locations, saw the blurry (模糊不清的) image of Compean’s legs against a backdrop of rocks and vegetation. He immediately opened a satellite map on his laptop and began narrowing his search.(47岁的Ben Kuo有一个独特的爱好——识别拍摄地点，他看到了那张模糊的照片：Compean的腿出现在岩石和植被的背景中。他立刻在笔记本电脑上打开了卫星地图，开始缩小搜索范围。)”可知，Ben Kuo看到Compean的照片后，最初的行动是在笔记本电脑上打开卫星地图。故选B项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“Ben Kuo, a 47-year-old with a unique hobby of identifying filming locations, saw the blurry (模糊不清的) image of Compean’s legs against a backdrop of rocks and vegetation. He immediately opened a satellite map on his laptop and began narrowing his search. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was patches of greenery. (47 岁的Ben Kuo有个特别的爱好 —— 辨认电影拍摄地。他看到了Compean那张照片：模糊的腿部影像旁，背景是岩石与植被。他立刻在笔记本电脑上打开卫星地图，开始缩小搜索范围。在康佩安的照片里，他最先注意到的是一片片绿植。)”以及“The final step was cross-referencing the original photo with 3D images of the area from Google Earth. The locations matched!(最后一步是将原始照片与谷歌地球中该地区的3D图像进行交叉比对。位置完全匹配！)”可知，第四段主要讲述了Ben Kuo定位Compean的过程。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“He immediately opened a satellite map on his laptop and began narrowing his search. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was patches of greenery.(他立刻在笔记本电脑上打开了卫星地图，开始缩小搜索范围。他在Compean的照片中注意到的第一件事是一片片绿色植物。)”以及第五段中的“Compean’s story probably could have been vastly different if it weren’t for the quick thinking of a total stranger with strong satellite skills and a sharp eye for detail.(如果不是这位素不相识、拥有出色卫星技能且观察力敏锐的陌生人思维敏捷，Compean的故事可能会截然不同。)”可知，Ben Kuo看到照片后立刻行动，还能从照片中捕捉关键信息，所以“观察力敏锐且行动迅速”最能描述他。故选D项。 C Districts across the US are seeking ways to support the growing number of students in need of mental health assistance. One innovative approach comes from a rural high school in Ohio, where students themselves are part of the solution. At Claymont High School in Uhrichsville, Ohio, a group of approximately 21 high schoolers are trained in mental health first aid. They have completed courses designed to equip them with the skills to assist their peers (同龄人) facing challenges. The students, who are in grades 10 through 12, are part of a larger program called Peers Uplifting Peers, or PUP, which aims to break down the stigma (羞耻) around mental health and wellness and normalize having conversations about both and seeking professional help when necessary. A significant aspect of their training is to help their friends get in touch with professionals and established resources. “Students are helping out by picking up on early warning signs. They are noticing that maybe someone is having a hard day or is just sitting by themselves,” said Kelsi Barnhart, the school’s assistant principal. “They try to be good friends, and they speak up. It’s not that they are stepping in and providing counseling (咨询).” Despite a national conversation around mental health, the situation may be different in rural areas like Uhrichsville where people feel ashamed of discussing mental health. “It’s hard to talk about mental health out loud,” said Bridget Britton, a licensed social worker. Accessing the aid can also pose problems, as many rural regions lack public transportation options found in urban communities. Financial barriers add another layer of difficulty. “Many rural residents work on farms, which often don’t provide workers with health insurance,” she said. 8. What is the purpose of the PUP program? A. To remove financial barriers to schools. B. To train teachers in mental health awareness. C. To reduce the shame concerning mental well-being. D. To promote academic excellence among students. 9. How do the trained students at Claymont High School help their peers? A. By referring students to famous doctors. B. By organizing community mental health events. C. By identifying early warning signs of suffering. D. By providing professional counseling services. 10. Why is discussing mental health be more challenging in rural areas? A. There is a lack of trained professionals. B. Residents have limited access to technology. C. School programs are often costly in rural areas. D. There is a cultural stigma around it. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Peer Support in Mental Health Program B. The Importance of Mental Health Training C. Mental Health Challenges in Urban Communities D. The Role of Teachers in Mental Wellness Initiatives 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍美国俄亥俄州一所乡村高中通过“同伴激励同伴（PUP）”项目，培训学生提供心理健康急救，助力有需求的同龄人，同时提及乡村地区心理健康讨论的挑战。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The students, who are in grades 10 through 12, are part of a larger program called Peers Uplifting Peers, or PUP, which aims to break down the stigma (羞耻) around mental health and wellness and normalize having conversations about both and seeking professional help when necessary.(这些10至12年级的学生是一个名为“同伴激励同伴（PUP）”的大型项目的一部分，该项目旨在打破围绕心理健康与健康的羞耻感，让讨论这两方面话题以及在必要时寻求专业帮助成为常态。)”可知，PUP项目的目的是减少与心理健康相关的羞耻感。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的““Students are helping out by picking up on early warning signs. They are noticing that maybe someone is having a hard day or is just sitting by themselves,” said Kelsi Barnhart, the school’s assistant principal. “They try to be good friends, and they speak up. It’s not that they are stepping in and providing counseling (咨询).”(该校副校长凯尔西・巴恩哈特表示：“学生们正通过留意早期预警信号提供帮助。他们会注意到，或许有人当天过得不顺心，或是独自坐着。他们努力做好朋友的角色，也会主动表达关心。但这并非意味着他们在介入并提供咨询服务。”)”可知，克莱蒙特高中受过培训的学生通过识别同伴面临心理困扰的早期预警信号来提供帮助。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Despite a national conversation around mental health, the situation may be different in rural areas like Uhrichsville where people feel ashamed of discussing mental health. “It’s hard to talk about mental health out loud,” said Bridget Britton, a licensed social worker. (尽管全国都在围绕心理健康展开讨论，但在尤里奇斯维尔这样的农村地区，情况可能有所不同 —— 这里的人们羞于谈论心理健康。“公开谈论心理健康并非易事，”持证社会工作者布里奇特・布里顿说道。)”可知，在乡村地区讨论心理健康更具挑战性是因为存在相关的文化羞耻感。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章核心围绕美国俄亥俄州乡村高中的“同伴激励同伴（PUP）”项目展开，介绍该项目培训学生为同龄人提供心理健康支持的方式，以及乡村地区心理健康讨论的困境。因此“心理健康项目中的同伴支持”最适合作为本文标题。故选A项。 D In a field of flowers, human ears perceive silence, interrupted only by the sounds of birds and insects. To certain animal ears, however, a field of flowers is full of conversation. It’s widely recognized that plants communicate when stressed. You need only observe a houseplant to realize that a plant wilts (枯萎) when it needs water, or turns yellow at the edges when it has been watered too much. Some plants may also emit (发出) a bitter taste to deter insects from taking advantage of their stressed state, while others may emit organic compounds to warn nearby plants of danger. A recent study from Tel Aviv University shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also emit sounds. According to the study, plants emit sounds at frequencies between 40 to 80 kilohertz — beyond the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. “While unheard by humans, the sounds emitted by plants can probably be heard by such animals as bats, mice, and insects,” explained Dr. Lilach Hadany, a professor at Tel Aviv University and a co-author of the study. One of the significant advancements in Hadany’s research is the ability to classify and understand the sounds produced by plants. Plants that are not stressed produce about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed, dehydrated, or injured produce many hundreds of sounds per hour, and each of these sounds seems to be specific to the type of stress the plant is under. This groundbreaking information could be vital for agriculture. By recognizing the sounds plants make, farmers might be able to determine if their crops are threatened by drought or disease, enabling them to take timely action to ensure their plants grow. Amazingly enough, the researchers remain uncertain how the plants make sounds, though it may involve cavitation (空穴现象) — when the water tension in the plants becomes too high and the water turns to gas, making an ultrasonic popping noise. Whatever the case, this is still a game-changer for plant science, and potentially for the future of agriculture. One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely. 12. What does the underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Prevent. B. Attack. C. Feed. D. Draw. 13. What does the recent study from Tel Aviv University mainly show? A. Plants can feel thirsty and lonely. B. Plants emit sounds when stressed. C. Plants turn yellow when overwatered. D. Plants can hear the sounds animals make. 14. What effect do plant sounds have on farmers? A. Farmers will no longer need to monitor crops. B. Farmers will have less interest in plants. C. Plant sounds will stop farmers working. D. Understanding plant sounds can improve farming. 15. What can be inferred about the potential future of agriculture based on the study? A. Plants will become more dependent on farmers. B. Farmers may learn to listen to plants’ needs. C. Plants will stop emitting sounds over time. D. Plant sounds will replace modern farming methods. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍植物在受胁迫时会通过多种方式交流，以色列特拉维夫大学研究发现植物受胁迫时还会发出声音，该发现对农业有重要意义。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“Some plants may also emit (发出) a bitter taste to deter insects from taking advantage of their stressed state, while others may emit organic compounds to warn nearby plants of danger. (有些植物可能还会释放出苦味，deter昆虫趁它们处于脆弱状态时加以侵害；而另一些植物则可能释放有机化合物，向附近的植物发出危险预警。)”可知，植物发出苦味是为了阻止昆虫侵害，“deter”意为“阻止”，与“Prevent”意思相近。故选A项。 13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A recent study from Tel Aviv University shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also emit sounds.(以色列特拉维夫大学最近的一项研究表明，植物在受胁迫时，不仅会通过上述方式表达自己，还会发出声音。)”可知，该研究主要表明植物在受胁迫时会发出声音。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中的“This groundbreaking information could be vital for agriculture. By recognizing the sounds plants make, farmers might be able to determine if their crops are threatened by drought or disease, enabling them to take timely action to ensure their plants grow.(这一突破性信息对农业可能至关重要。通过识别植物发出的声音，农民或许能够判断他们的作物是否受到干旱或疾病的威胁，从而及时采取行动确保植物生长。)”可知，理解植物声音能帮助农民更好地种植，改善农业生产。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“By recognizing the sounds plants make, farmers might be able to determine if their crops are threatened by drought or disease, enabling them to take timely action to ensure their plants grow.(通过识别植物发出的声音，农民或许能够判断他们的作物是否受到干旱或疾病的威胁，从而及时采取行动确保植物生长。)”和最后一段中的“One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely.(不久的将来，你的植物或许就能告诉你它们是饿了、渴了，还是只是感到孤单。)”可推断，基于这项研究，未来农民可能会学会倾听植物的需求。故选B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。 For countless generations, trillions of coral polyps (珊瑚虫) have lived and died, leaving behind a material called limestone (石灰岩). Throughout history, limestone was used to construct the Great Pyramid of Egypt, as well as many churches and castles. ___16___ . They can be even larger in scale than the most impressive buildings and structures made by humans. A diversity of life A living coral reef is a “city beneath the sea” filled with a rich variety of life. Most coral reefs can be found in warm, shallow oceans. They occupy a small part of the ocean floor, but host 25 percent of all ocean life. Each reef is full of colorful fish as well as coral that forms wonderful patterns. ___17___, the reefs serve as vital food sources for fish. Threats to coral reefs Human activities pose serious threats to coral reefs around the world. ___18___ . Additionally, illegal fishing methods also harm reefs. These methods can help fishermen get a good catch, but their negative effects on the reefs are significant. Blast (爆破) fishing involves setting off bombs in the water to kill as many fish as possible. This kills most living things nearby and causes damage to the reef’s structure. ___19___. A 2018 UN report warned that up to 99 percent of the world’s coral reefs could decline if climate change continues. ___20___ These threats to coral reefs are serious, but there is hope for coral reef survival. If we take steps toward coral reef conservation, it is likely that these tiny creatures — which survived natural threats for millions of years — will be able to rebuild. A. Reasons for hope B. Methods of protection C. In addition to their beauty D. Apart from this ocean life E. Moreover, global warming has caused many reefs to become sick F. For example, reefs can be damaged when the coral is used as building materials G. However, the most impressive limestone formations can be found underwater in the form of coral reefs 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. F 19. E 20.

Leo was a dreamer with a passion for art. He spent most of his days painting the landscapes around him, capturing the beauty of nature in his drawings. However, Leo was shy and often hesitated to share his work with others. He feared criticism and doubted his talent. One day, the town announced an art competition, inviting artists of all ages to submit their work. The winner would have their artwork displayed in the town hall and receive a scholarship for art classes. The announcement ignited (点燃) Leo’s interest. This could be his chance to show his art to the world! Despite Leo’s excitement, his fear returned. “What if I’m not good enough?” he thought. For days, he struggled with his doubts, but deep down, he knew he had to try. Encouraged by his mother, who always believed in his talent, he decided to enter the competition. Leo spent every free moment working on his piece. He chose to paint the impressive sunset over the hills, the colors reflecting the beauty he admired in nature. As he painted, he poured his heart into the canvas (画布), feeling a sense of freedom and joy. However, as the deadline approached, his insecurities returned. “What if people laugh at my work?” he thought carefully. On the day of submission, Leo hesitated at the door of the gallery, holding his painting tightly. He took a deep breath and reminded himself of his mother’s words: “Art is about expressing yourself, not about pleasing others.” Gathering his courage, he stepped inside and handed over his painting. The following week, the town gathered for the competition’s unveiling (揭幕). Leo felt a mix of excitement and fear as he watched other artists present their work. The gallery was crowded with people, and he couldn’t help but admire the creativity around him. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Finally, it was time for the winners to be announced. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the following months, Leo began to attend more local art shows. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Finally, it was time for the winners to be announced. Leo’s heart raced. When the first-place winner was called, it wasn’t him. A wave of disappointment washed over him. But then, to his surprise, he heard his name for the second-place award. He couldn’t believe it! Applause erupted around him, and he felt a warmth in his chest. Leo realized that this experience was about more than just winning. It was about overcoming his fears and sharing his passion with others. The recognition he received from the community boosted his confidence, igniting a fire within him to continue pursuing his art. In the following months, Leo began to attend more local art shows. He learned new techniques, met fellow artists, and grew more comfortable expressing himself. With each piece he created, he got rid of more of his self-doubt and embraced his creativity. Through this journey, Leo discovered that growth often comes from facing challenges and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. It taught him the value of perseverance and the importance of believing in oneself. 【解析】 【导语】本文以男孩利奥的艺术成长经历为线索，讲述了热爱绘画却因害羞和不自信不敢分享作品的利奥，在小镇艺术比赛的吸引和母亲的鼓励下参赛，用心创作日落画作并提交，之后在比赛揭幕现场既兴奋又紧张地等待结果的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于，到了宣布获奖者的时刻。”可知，第一段可描写颁奖时利奥紧张的心情，以及获奖情况，同时体现他对比赛意义的新认知和自信的萌芽。 ②由第二段首句内容“在接下来的几个月里，利奥开始参加更多当地的艺术展。”可知，第二段可描写利奥在艺术展中的收获，如学习新技巧、结识同行，以及自我怀疑的逐渐消散，最终点明他在成长中领悟的道理。 2. 续写线索：宣布获奖——获二等奖——感悟意义——提升自信——参加更多艺术展——学习成长——摆脱怀疑——领悟道理 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①获得：receive /get ②提升：boost/enhance/promote ③走出：step out of/walk out of 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/amazement/shock ②自信：confidence/self-assurance 【点睛】[高分句型1] When the first-place winner was called, it wasn’t him.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] Leo realized that this experience was about more than just winning.（运用了that引导宾语从句） [高分句型3] The recognition he received from the community boosted his confidence, igniting a fire within him to continue pursuing his art.（运用了省略关系代词的定语从句以及现在分词短语作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2026年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试·模拟 英语 全卷满分150分 考试时间120分钟 注意事项: 1. 答题前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试题卷和答题卡上。 2. 作答时, 将答案写在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 考试结束后, 本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 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。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.

Take a look at some of the world’s greatest bridges. THE MOST TERRIFYING — Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge If you’re afraid of heights, you might not want to walk along the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in central China, which is recognized as the world’s longest and highest glass bridge. It is suspended 300 meters above the ground. As visitors walk across its 99 glass panels, they can see the steep drop beneath them. Completed in December 2015 at a cost of approximately £2.6 million, the bridge’s safety was tested by Chinese officials who struck it with hammers and drove a car over it. THE TILTING（倾斜的）BRIDGE — Gateshead Millennium Bridge Located in the north-east of England, the Gateshead Millennium Bridge is the world’s first tilting bridge. A tilting bridge is a moving bridge that uses motors to lift the arching structure — rather than opening in the middle and lifting up like a drawbridge — to allow ships to pass underneath. It features eight motors and can tilt at about 40° C in four and a half minutes, making it truly unique. The bridge opened to the public in 2001 and spans (跨越) the River Tyne. THE LONGEST BRIDGE — Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge At an enormous 102 miles, Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge in China is the world’s longest bridge. Its length is the same as the distance from Birmingham to London, and it was constructed by a workforce of 10,000 people over four years. Around 450,000 tons of steel was used in its construction, and it is so stable that it can stand 8-magnitude (震级) earthquakes or being hit by a 300,000-ton ship. It can even cope with the power of a strong typhoon. 1. What might stop tourists from visiting the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge according to the text? A. The fear of heights. B. The number of visitors. C. The extreme weather. D. The length of the bridge. 2. What can we know about the Gateshead Millennium Bridge? A. It cost almost £2.6 million. B. It opened to the public in 2015. C. It has eight motors in operation. D. It is the longest tilting bridge worldwide. 3. What do these three bridges have in common? A. They span the River Tyne. B. They can tilt at about 40°. C. They are the wonders of engineering. D. They can stand 8-magnitude earthquakes. B Rene Compean was familiar with Angeles National Forest. But after walking along a new path last April, the 45-year-old mechanic was lost. As darkness fell, his initial calm turned to fear. Equipped only with a liter of water, a power bar, and a nearly dead cell phone, Compean was unprepared for anything more than the two-hour hike he’d planned. Climbing to an elevation (高度) of 7,000 feet, he finally found a bar of signal and texted a friend: “SOS. My phone is going to die. I’m lost.”, attaching a photo of his surroundings. All he could do then was wait and hope, staying awake after spotting two mountain lions and a bear. Sixty miles away in Ventura County, the search-and-rescue teams had spent the previous night unsuccessfully looking for Compean, so they released the photo to the public, hoping someone might recognize the location. Ben Kuo, a 47-year-old with a unique hobby of identifying filming locations, saw the blurry (模糊不清的) image of Compean’s legs against a backdrop of rocks and vegetation. He immediately opened a satellite map on his laptop and began narrowing his search. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was patches of greenery. After comparing it to the satellite map, Kuo realized something: “He’s got to be on the south side because there’s not really any green valleys on the north side.” That finding tightened his search, leading him to an area that matched the landscape in the image. The final step was cross-referencing the original photo with 3D images of the area from Google Earth. The locations matched! Soon, a search-and-rescue team helicopter was in the air, heading for Compean. After spending 27 hours alone in the wilderness, Compean cried, “I’m safe!” Compean’s story probably could have been vastly different if it weren’t for the quick thinking of a total stranger with strong satellite skills and a sharp eye for detail. 4. How did Compean indicate his situation when he was lost? A. By making a phone call. B. By sending a text message. C. By shouting for help. D. By using an online map. 5. What initial action did Ben Kuo take after seeing Compean’s photo? A. He posted the photo on social media. B. He opened a satellite map on his laptop. C. He compared the original photo with the 3D images. D. He called the search-and-rescue team for assistance. 6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of Ben Kuo locating Compean. B. Ben Kuo’s observation of the landscape. C. The role of technology in search. D. The importance of vegetation in mapping. 7. Which of the following can best describe Ben Kuo? A. Calm and adventurous. B. Helpful and ambitious. C. Knowledgeable and friendly. D. Observant and fast-acting. C Districts across the US are seeking ways to support the growing number of students in need of mental health assistance. One innovative approach comes from a rural high school in Ohio, where students themselves are part of the solution. At Claymont High School in Uhrichsville, Ohio, a group of approximately 21 high schoolers are trained in mental health first aid. They have completed courses designed to equip them with the skills to assist their peers (同龄人) facing challenges. The students, who are in grades 10 through 12, are part of a larger program called Peers Uplifting Peers, or PUP, which aims to break down the stigma (羞耻) around mental health and wellness and normalize having conversations about both and seeking professional help when necessary. A significant aspect of their training is to help their friends get in touch with professionals and established resources. “Students are helping out by picking up on early warning signs. They are noticing that maybe someone is having a hard day or is just sitting by themselves,” said Kelsi Barnhart, the school’s assistant principal. “They try to be good friends, and they speak up. It’s not that they are stepping in and providing counseling (咨询).” Despite a national conversation around mental health, the situation may be different in rural areas like Uhrichsville where people feel ashamed of discussing mental health. “It’s hard to talk about mental health out loud,” said Bridget Britton, a licensed social worker. Accessing the aid can also pose problems, as many rural regions lack public transportation options found in urban communities. Financial barriers add another layer of difficulty. “Many rural residents work on farms, which often don’t provide workers with health insurance,” she said. 8. What is the purpose of the PUP program? A. To remove financial barriers to schools. B. To train teachers in mental health awareness. C. To reduce the shame concerning mental well-being. D. To promote academic excellence among students. 9. How do the trained students at Claymont High School help their peers? A. By referring students to famous doctors. B. By organizing community mental health events. C. By identifying early warning signs of suffering. D. By providing professional counseling services. 10. Why is discussing mental health be more challenging in rural areas? A. There is a lack of trained professionals. B. Residents have limited access to technology. C. School programs are often costly in rural areas. D. There is a cultural stigma around it. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A Peer Support in Mental Health Program B. The Importance of Mental Health Training C. Mental Health Challenges in Urban Communities D. The Role of Teachers in Mental Wellness Initiatives D In a field of flowers, human ears perceive silence, interrupted only by the sounds of birds and insects. To certain animal ears, however, a field of flowers is full of conversation. It’s widely recognized that plants communicate when stressed. You need only observe a houseplant to realize that a plant wilts (枯萎) when it needs water, or turns yellow at the edges when it has been watered too much. Some plants may also emit (发出) a bitter taste to deter insects from taking advantage of their stressed state, while others may emit organic compounds to warn nearby plants of danger. A recent study from Tel Aviv University shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also emit sounds. According to the study, plants emit sounds at frequencies between 40 to 80 kilohertz — beyond the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. “While unheard by humans, the sounds emitted by plants can probably be heard by such animals as bats, mice, and insects,” explained Dr. Lilach Hadany, a professor at Tel Aviv University and a co-author of the study. One of the significant advancements in Hadany’s research is the ability to classify and understand the sounds produced by plants. Plants that are not stressed produce about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed, dehydrated, or injured produce many hundreds of sounds per hour, and each of these sounds seems to be specific to the type of stress the plant is under. This groundbreaking information could be vital for agriculture. By recognizing the sounds plants make, farmers might be able to determine if their crops are threatened by drought or disease, enabling them to take timely action to ensure their plants grow. Amazingly enough, the researchers remain uncertain how the plants make sounds, though it may involve cavitation (空穴现象) — when the water tension in the plants becomes too high and the water turns to gas, making an ultrasonic popping noise. Whatever the case, this is still a game-changer for plant science, and potentially for the future of agriculture. One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely. 12. What does the underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Prevent. B. Attack. C. Feed. D.

Leo was a dreamer with a passion for art. He spent most of his days painting the landscapes around him, capturing the beauty of nature in his drawings. However, Leo was shy and often hesitated to share his work with others. He feared criticism and doubted his talent. One day, the town announced an art competition, inviting artists of all ages to submit their work. The winner would have their artwork displayed in the town hall and receive a scholarship for art classes. The announcement ignited (点燃) Leo’s interest. This could be his chance to show his art to the world! Despite Leo’s excitement, his fear returned. “What if I’m not good enough?” he thought. For days, he struggled with his doubts, but deep down, he knew he had to try. Encouraged by his mother, who always believed in his talent, he decided to enter the competition. Leo spent every free moment working on his piece. He chose to paint the impressive sunset over the hills, the colors reflecting the beauty he admired in nature. As he painted, he poured his heart into the canvas (画布), feeling a sense of freedom and joy. However, as the deadline approached, his insecurities returned. “What if people laugh at my work?” he thought carefully. On the day of submission, Leo hesitated at the door of the gallery, holding his painting tightly. He took a deep breath and reminded himself of his mother’s words: “Art is about expressing yourself, not about pleasing others.” Gathering his courage, he stepped inside and handed over his painting. The following week, the town gathered for the competition’s unveiling (揭幕). Leo felt a mix of excitement and fear as he watched other artists present their work. The gallery was crowded with people, and he couldn’t help but admire the creativity around him. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Finally, it was time for the winners to be announced. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the following months, Leo began to attend more local art shows. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
