D. $2 When Glen Coupland was first practising yoga more than 25 years ago, it was to get active and boost his own fitness. Now, at the age of 78. Glen is a yoga teacher at five locations around Toronto, teaching 17 classes a week. And he’s built a community of students who gather weekly to practise and socialize. “It’s really nice to see people build friendships here.” he says. Nancy, 56, has been practising yoga with Coupland for about a decade, and she says why she keeps coming back is the community. She’s become friends with Coupland and her fellow students: they go cycling, meet up for tea, go hiking, even go on vacation together. “Social isolation (隔离) is the new smoking, in terms of death rate.” says Dr. Alexandra Papaioannou, director of the Geras. Centre for Aging Research. “Older adults tend to have fewer social ties. As seniors leave the work force, they’re not getting that daily connection. Plus, family members may not live near and spouses (配偶) may have passed away.” she adds. A study published by the Journal of Aging Health found that loneliness and social isolation could lead to higher chances of depression and weakened thinking abilities, greater risks of heart diseases, memory loss, and a reduced quality of life. Another study found that older adults who exercised with others demonstrated better physical function and memory abilities than those who didn’t exercise at all or exercised alone. And compared with those who exercised alone, older adults who participated in group fitness had significantly better muscle strength, attention, memory and overall function. For seniors, group fitness classes are a good way of getting much-needed exercise and an opportunity to socialize. 4. What’s the main reason for Nancy to keep practising yoga with Glen Coupland? A. To become a yoga teacher. B. To improve her fitness. C. To enjoy a sense of belonging. D. To serve the community. 5. What can we learn from Dr. Alexandra Papaioannou’s words? A. Seniors living alone tend to smoke more. B. Lack of social ties causes more smoking. C. Seniors need avoid smoking to live longer. D. Social isolation is as dangerous as smoking. 6. What can we conclude from the two studies? A. Group exercise helps fight health risks. B. Group activities can cure mental diseases. C. Better physical condition can improve memory. D. Social bonds have little impact on mental health. 7. Which column of a website is the text probably taken from? A. Entertainment. B. Wellness. C. Fashion. D. Culture. NASA’s Perseverance rover (火星车) continues its pioneering exploration of Mars’ Jezero Crater, collecting rock samples that may fundamentally change our understanding of the Red Planet and the potential for life outside the earth. Since landing in 2021, the car-sized rover has been carefully documenting Mars’ geology while gathering sealed samples for eventual return to Earth. Scientists believe Mars was once a mild world with flowing water and a protective magnetic field (磁场), which was suitable for the survival of living things. “Around three billion years ago, something disastrous happened,” explains Ken Farley, Perseverance’s project scientist. “The planet’s magnetic field disappeared, solar wind took away the atmosphere forcefully, and Mars became the uninhabitable world we see today.” Perseverance’s primary mission is to search for signs of ancient tiny living organisms. The rover is equipped with precise instruments to analyze rocks and soil, but its most important task is collecting pure and undamaged samples for detailed study on Earth. “Each sample tube we fill could hold answers to questions about Martian history and whether life ever existed there,” says Meenakshi Wadhwa, lead scientist for the Mars Sample Return program. In June 2024, NASA’s Curiosity rover discovered yellow sulfur crystals — an exciting find. However, only Perseverance can collect samples for return to Earth, making its mission uniquely valuable. The ambitious Mars Sample Return program, a cooperation between NASA and ESA, aims to retrieve these samples by the early 2030s. The process involves multiple spacecraft working in sequence to launch the samples from Mars’ surface and safely deliver them to Earth. Once here, scientists worldwide will study them using advanced laboratory techniques unavailable on the rover itself. “These samples may hold clues not just about Mars, but about how planets evolve and how life begins,” Wadhwa emphasizes. As Perseverance continues its journey across the Martian landscape, each new discovery brings humanity closer to answering one of our most profound questions: Are we alone in the universe? 8. What was Mars like before the disaster? A. Dry. B. Noisy. C. Freezing. D. Inhabitable. 9. What is the main mission of NASA’s Perseverance rover? A. To seek evidence of early life signs on Mars. B. To test new spacecraft landing technologies. C. To study the Martian atmosphere composition. D To document the Martian surface temperature. 10. What does the underlined word “retrieve” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Look into. B. Get back. C. Set aside. D. Pay off. 11. What is the follow-up research most likely to focus on? A. New instruments for other missions. B. Deep analyses of the Mars’ samples. C. Test methods for restoring magnetic field. D. Spacecraft designs for longer space travel. What if your next job is just a weak tie away? A recent study, conducted by a team from Stanford University and LinkedIn, revealed that weaker social connections have a greater beneficial effect on job mobility (流动性) than stronger ties. Stanford Professor Erik Bryson suggests a practical outcome of this study is to encourage job seekers to expand their reach beyond immediate friends and colleagues. Weak ties, he explains, often provide more unique, beneficial information and connections. The advantage of weak ties theory is based on the idea that weak ties allow distant group of people to access novel information that can lead to new opportunities and innovation. Weak ties are more likely to introduce new job information to a wider social network. The research team conducted a five-year experimental study with LinkedIn, involving 20 million global participants and 600,000 new jobs created. Using LinkedIn’s “People You May Know” (PYMK) algorithm (算法), the researchers tested the weak tie theory’s impact on the job market. The team randomly assigned LinkedIn users to receive either more weak or strong tie recommendations from the PYMK algorithm, then tracked the labor mobility of these groups over five years. Their findings confirm that weaker ties enhance job mobility. Besides, the researchers looked at differences across industries and found that adding weak ties creates significantly more job opportunities in digital and high-tech industries. “This may reflect the fact that there is more rapid change and need for novel information and connections in those industries,” Bryson said. He points out that the traditional methods used by policymakers to analyze labor markets are quickly becoming outdated. “They need to recognize that the labor market, like all aspects of the economy, is being digitized,” Bryson said. “It is important that we understand how the algorithms used by digital platforms like LinkedIn impact the labor market.” 12. According to paragraph 1, what should job seekers do? A. Expand network to include weak ties. B. Limit the search to their current industry. C. Strengthen connections with close friends. D. Rely on strong connections for opportunities. 13. How did the researchers test the weak tie theory? A. By carrying out on line surveys. B. By interviewing LinkedIn employers. C. By tracking user data and job mobility. D. By conducting a large-scale job fair. 14. What can we learn about digital and high-tech industries? A. They are fast-paced and value novelty. B. They cause weak ties among employees. C. Strong ties are the main source of mobility. D. Weak ties do not contribute to job mobility. 15. What might Bryson advise policymakers to do? A. Prioritize traditional methods only. B. Ignore the impact of digital platforms. C Recognize the influence of digitization. D. Understand the rules on digital platforms. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分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。 Have you ever noticed that some songs start with a “one, two, three, four”? You can hear it in songs by artists like The Beatles, OutKast, and Taylor Swift. ___16___ They count (aloud or in their heads) to make sure that they all start the song together and everyone stays on the same beat. ___17___The steady beat of a song is one pattern, but there are others, like the distance between notes. Notes in music form patterns by their distance from each other, and when played together, some notes sound better due to these mathematical relationships. In written music, musicians use fractions(分数) to understand the rhythm. Such fractions, like 4/4, show how many beats are in each measure and which notes get one beat. ___18___ For example, in 4/4 time, a whole note lasts for four beats, a half note for two, and a quarter note for one. Smaller notes, like eighth and sixteenth notes, are fractions of a beat. Research shows that students who play an instrument often perform better on math tests, but scientists are not sure why. ___19___ Or it could be that students who play music tend to go to good schools or have support at home. Music is great for the brain. Playing an instrument engages multiple parts of the brain at once-seeing, hearing, and touching all come together in real time. ___20___ Music might help you with math. Math might help you with music. But whether or not they do, we can have fun learning both! A. Music is full of patterns. B. But why are they counting? C. It might be that music helps with math. D. This makes music excellent mental exercise. E. Sometimes we play more than one note at a time. F. In fact, math is behind almost everything in music! G. There is also a connection between notes and fractions. 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。 Lu Jiaojiao, a 29-year-old from a village in Yunnan province, has transformed from a rural girl into a thriving businesswoman.

They went to the same school, played on the same soccer team, and even wore matching bracelets (手链). Everyone around them said they were like two sides of the same coin. They believed nothing could come between them. But things started to change when a new girl Daisy came to their class. One day, their teacher, Mr. Lynn, announced a big group project. “Pick a partner,” he said. Emily immediately turned to Zoe, expecting her usual smile and a quick “yes.” But to her surprise. Zoe was already talking to Daisy. “I’m going to work with Daisy this time,” Zoe said to Emily, almost too casually. Emily felt like the air had been knocked out of her. She nodded and forced a smile, but inside, she was confused and hurt. That night, she stared at her phone screen, hoping for a message that never came. Over the next few days, she avoided Zoe. Their texts stopped, they no longer sat together during lunch, and the bracelets they once wore daily were now left at home. Even during class, Emily found it hard to focus, her mind replaying the moment when Zoe chose someone else. Weeks passed. The school organized a three-day camping trip in the mountains. Students were divided into several groups. Emily and Zoe ended up in the same one, along with Daisy and two other classmates. Though they barely spoke, they worked together to put up tents and gather firewood. Their conversations were limited to short, polite exchanges — nothing like before. On the second night, dark clouds rolled in and heavy rain soon followed. Everyone rushed into their own tents. Emily quickly discovered that hers was leaking. Cold and upset, she went outside, seeking for help. The wind howled around her, and each raindrop felt like a tiny needle against her skin. 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。 Just then, she saw a flashlight approaching. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Zoe’s help, they soon fixed the tent. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 扬州市新华中学2026届高三第一次学情调研 英语试卷 第一部分 听力（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分） 第一节 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.

She’s become friends with Coupland and her fellow students: they go cycling, meet up for tea, go hiking, even go on vacation together.(56岁的南希和库普兰一起练瑜伽已经十年了，她说她一直坚持下来的原因是这个团体。她和库普兰以及她的同学们成为了朋友：他们一起骑自行车，一起喝茶，一起徒步旅行，甚至一起度假)”可知，南希坚持和格伦·库普兰一起练瑜伽的主要原因是享受团体带来的归属感。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中““Social isolation (隔离) is the new smoking, in terms of death rate.” says Dr. Alexandra Papaioannou, director of the Geras. Centre for Aging Research.(“就死亡率而言，社交孤立是新的吸烟行为。”Geras老年研究中心主任亚历山德拉·帕帕约安努博士说)”以及““Older adults tend to have fewer social ties. As seniors leave the work force, they’re not getting that daily connection. Plus, family members may not live near and spouses (配偶) may have passed away.” she adds.(“老年人的人际关系往往较少。随着老年人离开工作岗位，他们不再有日常的联系。此外，家庭成员可能不住在附近，配偶可能已经去世。”她补充说)”可推知，从亚历山德拉·帕帕约安努博士的话中我们可以了解到社交孤立和吸烟一样危险。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“A study published by the Journal of Aging Health found that loneliness and social isolation could lead to higher chances of depression and weakened thinking abilities, greater risks of heart diseases, memory loss, and a reduced quality of life.(发表在《老龄健康杂志》上的一项研究发现，孤独和社交孤立可能导致更高的抑郁几率和思维能力下降，患心脏病、失忆和降低生活质量的风险更大)”以及第五段“Another study found that older adults who exercised with others demonstrated better physical function and memory abilities than those who didn’t exercise at all or exercised alone. And compared with those who exercised alone, older adults who participated in group fitness had significantly better muscle strength, attention, memory and overall function.(另一项研究发现，与不锻炼或单独锻炼的老年人相比，与他人一起锻炼的老年人表现出更好的身体机能和记忆能力。与单独锻炼的老年人相比，参加集体健身的老年人肌肉力量、注意力、记忆力和整体功能明显更好)”可推知，这两项研究能得出的结论是集体锻炼有助于对抗健康风险。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章主要说明了如今78岁的格伦·库普兰是多伦多五个地方的瑜伽老师，每周教17节课，他建立了一个学生社区，每周聚集在一起练习和社交。文章还介绍了Nancy与库普兰一起练瑜伽的经历以及老年人缺乏社交的危害和集体锻炼的好处。可推知，文章可能选自网站的“健康”专栏。故选B。 NASA’s Perseverance rover (火星车) continues its pioneering exploration of Mars’ Jezero Crater, collecting rock samples that may fundamentally change our understanding of the Red Planet and the potential for life outside the earth. Since landing in 2021, the car-sized rover has been carefully documenting Mars’ geology while gathering sealed samples for eventual return to Earth. Scientists believe Mars was once a mild world with flowing water and a protective magnetic field (磁场), which was suitable for the survival of living things. “Around three billion years ago, something disastrous happened,” explains Ken Farley, Perseverance’s project scientist. “The planet’s magnetic field disappeared, solar wind took away the atmosphere forcefully, and Mars became the uninhabitable world we see today.” Perseverance’s primary mission is to search for signs of ancient tiny living organisms. The rover is equipped with precise instruments to analyze rocks and soil, but its most important task is collecting pure and undamaged samples for detailed study on Earth. “Each sample tube we fill could hold answers to questions about Martian history and whether life ever existed there,” says Meenakshi Wadhwa, lead scientist for the Mars Sample Return program. In June 2024, NASA’s Curiosity rover discovered yellow sulfur crystals — an exciting find. However, only Perseverance can collect samples for return to Earth, making its mission uniquely valuable. The ambitious Mars Sample Return program, a cooperation between NASA and ESA, aims to retrieve these samples by the early 2030s. The process involves multiple spacecraft working in sequence to launch the samples from Mars’ surface and safely deliver them to Earth. Once here, scientists worldwide will study them using advanced laboratory techniques unavailable on the rover itself. “These samples may hold clues not just about Mars, but about how planets evolve and how life begins,” Wadhwa emphasizes. As Perseverance continues its journey across the Martian landscape, each new discovery brings humanity closer to answering one of our most profound questions: Are we alone in the universe? 8. What was Mars like before the disaster? A. Dry. B. Noisy. C. Freezing. D. Inhabitable. 9. What is the main mission of NASA’s Perseverance rover? A. To seek evidence of early life signs on Mars. B. To test new spacecraft landing technologies. C. To study the Martian atmosphere composition. D. To document the Martian surface temperature. 10. What does the underlined word “retrieve” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Look into. B. Get back. C. Set aside. D. Pay off. 11. What is the follow-up research most likely to focus on? A. New instruments for other missions. B. Deep analyses of the Mars’ samples. C. Test methods for restoring magnetic field. D. Spacecraft designs for longer space travel. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕美国国家航空航天局(NASA)的“毅力号”火星车展开，介绍了其在火星杰泽罗陨石坑的探索任务。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第二段的句子“Scientists believe Mars was once a mild world with flowing water and a protective magnetic field (磁场), which was suitable for the survival of living things. “Around three billion years ago, something disastrous happened,” explains Ken Farley, Perseverance’s project scientist.(科学家们认为火星曾经是一个温和的星球，有流动的水和保护磁场，适合生物的生存。“大约30亿年前，发生了一些灾难性的事情，”毅力号项目科学家肯·法利解释说)”可知，灾难发生前火星是适宜居住的。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Perseverance’s primary mission is to search for signs of ancient tiny living organisms.(‘毅力号’的主要任务是寻找古代微小生物的迹象)”可知，毅力号的主要任务是寻找火星上早期生命迹象的证据。故选A项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上一段的句子“However, only Perseverance can collect samples for return to Earth, making its mission uniquely valuable(然而，只有毅力号才能收集样本返回地球，这使得它的任务具有独特的价值)” 以及下文的句子“The process involves multiple spacecraft working in sequence to launch the samples from Mars’ surface and safely deliver them to Earth.(这一过程涉及多个航天器依次工作，从火星表面发射样本并将其安全送到地球)” 可知“火星样本返回计划”的目的是把样本从火星带回地球，“retrieve”在这里应是“取回、拿回”的意思，与“Get back”意义一致。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第五段的句子“Once here, scientists worldwide will study them using advanced laboratory techniques unavailable on the rover itself.(一旦到达这里，世界各地的科学家将使用探测器本身无法使用的先进实验室技术对它们进行研究)”以及第六段的句子“These samples may hold clues not just about Mars, but about how planets evolve and how life begins(这些样本可能不仅提供了关于火星的线索，还提供了行星如何演化以及生命如何开始的线索)”可知，样本被带回地球后，科学家们会用先进的实验室技术对其进行研究，后续研究很可能聚焦于对火星样本的深入分析。故选B项。 What if your next job is just a weak tie away? A recent study, conducted by a team from Stanford University and LinkedIn, revealed that weaker social connections have a greater beneficial effect on job mobility (流动性) than stronger ties. Stanford Professor Erik Bryson suggests a practical outcome of this study is to encourage job seekers to expand their reach beyond immediate friends and colleagues. Weak ties, he explains, often provide more unique, beneficial information and connections. The advantage of weak ties theory is based on the idea that weak ties allow distant group of people to access novel information that can lead to new opportunities and innovation. Weak ties are more likely to introduce new job information to a wider social network. The research team conducted a five-year experimental study with LinkedIn, involving 20 million global participants and 600,000 new jobs created. Using LinkedIn’s “People You May Know” (PYMK) algorithm (算法), the researchers tested the weak tie theory’s impact on the job market. The team randomly assigned LinkedIn users to receive either more weak or strong tie recommendations from the PYMK algorithm, then tracked the labor mobility of these groups over five years. Their findings confirm that weaker ties enhance job mobility. Besides, the researchers looked at differences across industries and found that adding weak ties creates significantly more job opportunities in digital and high-tech industries. “This may reflect the fact that there is more rapid change and need for novel information and connections in those industries,” Bryson said. He points out that the traditional methods used by policymakers to analyze labor markets are quickly becoming outdated. “They need to recognize that the labor market, like all aspects of the economy, is being digitized,” Bryson said. “It is important that we understand how the algorithms used by digital platforms like LinkedIn impact the labor market.” 12. According to paragraph 1, what should job seekers do? A. Expand network to include weak ties. B. Limit the search to their current industry. C. Strengthen connections with close friends. D. Rely on strong connections for opportunities. 13. How did the researchers test the weak tie theory? A. By carrying out on line surveys. B. By interviewing LinkedIn employers. C. By tracking user data and job mobility. D. By conducting a large-scale job fair. 14. What can we learn about digital and high-tech industries? A. They are fast-paced and value novelty. B. They cause weak ties among employees. C. Strong ties are the main source of mobility. D. Weak ties do not contribute to job mobility. 15. What might Bryson advise policymakers to do? A. Prioritize traditional methods only. B. Ignore the impact of digital platforms. C. Recognize the influence of digitization. D. Understand the rules on digital platforms. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究表明较弱的社会关系比较强的社会关系对工作流动性有更大的有利影响，鼓励求职者将自己的联系范围扩大到直接的朋友和同事之外。文章解释了研究开展的经过以及研究发现带来的启示。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Stanford Professor Erik Bryson suggests a practical outcome of this study is to encourage job seekers to expand their reach beyond immediate friends and colleagues.

You can hear it in songs by artists like The Beatles, OutKast, and Taylor Swift. ___16___ They count (aloud or in their heads) to make sure that they all start the song together and everyone stays on the same beat. ___17___The steady beat of a song is one pattern, but there are others, like the distance between notes. Notes in music form patterns by their distance from each other, and when played together, some notes sound better due to these mathematical relationships. In written music, musicians use fractions(分数) to understand the rhythm. Such fractions, like 4/4, show how many beats are in each measure and which notes get one beat. ___18___ For example, in 4/4 time, a whole note lasts for four beats, a half note for two, and a quarter note for one. Smaller notes, like eighth and sixteenth notes, are fractions of a beat. Research shows that students who play an instrument often perform better on math tests, but scientists are not sure why. ___19___ Or it could be that students who play music tend to go to good schools or have support at home. Music is great for the brain. Playing an instrument engages multiple parts of the brain at once-seeing, hearing, and touching all come together in real time. ___20___ Music might help you with math. Math might help you with music. But whether or not they do, we can have fun learning both! A. Music is full of patterns. B. But why are they counting? C. It might be that music helps with math. D. This makes music excellent mental exercise. E. Sometimes we play more than one note at a time. F. In fact, math is behind almost everything in music! G. There is also a connection between notes and fractions. 【答案】16. B 17. A 18. G 19. C 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了音乐与数学之间的紧密联系，从歌曲开始的计数、音乐中的模式、节奏中的分数，到音乐与数学学习之间的相互影响，最后强调了音乐对大脑的积极作用。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Have you ever noticed that some songs start with a 'one, two, three, four'?(你有没有注意到有些歌曲是以‘一、二、三、四’开头的？)”以及下文“They count (aloud or in their heads) to make sure that they all start the song together and everyone stays on the same beat.(他们（大声或在心里）数数是为了确保他们都能一起开始演奏歌曲，并且每个人都能保持相同的节拍)”可知，前文提到歌曲开头的数数现象，后文解释了这么做的原因，所以这里应是对为什么要数数提出疑问，与B项 “But why are they counting?(但是他们为什么要数数呢？)” 表达的含义一致，故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据下文“The steady beat of a song is one pattern, but there are others, like the distance between notes. Notes in music form patterns by their distance from each other, and when played together, some notes sound better due to these mathematical relationships.(歌曲稳定的节拍是一种模式，但还有其他模式，比如音符之间的间距。音乐中的音符通过它们彼此之间的距离形成模式，当一起演奏时，由于这些数学关系，一些音符听起来更好)”可知歌曲稳定的节拍是一种模式，但还有其他模式，可推理出后文重点在阐述音乐中存在多种模式，这与A项“Music is full of patterns.(音乐充满了各种模式。)”表达的意思相符，起到总领下文的作用，故选A项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“In written music, musicians use fractions (分数) to understand the rhythm. Such fractions, like 4/4, show how many beats are in each measure and which notes get one beat.(在乐谱中，音乐家们使用分数来理解节奏。像4/4这样的分数，表示每小节有多少拍以及哪些音符占一拍)”以及下文“For example, in 4/4 time, a whole note lasts for four beats, a half note for two, and a quarter note for one. Smaller notes, like eighth and sixteenth notes, are fractions of a beat.(例如，在 4/4 拍中，一个全音符持续四拍，一个二分音符持续两拍，一个四分音符持续一拍。更小的音符，如八分音符和十六分音符，是一拍的几分之一)”可知，上文提到用分数理解节奏，下文举例具体说明音符和分数之间的对应关系，所以此处应是强调音符和分数之间存在联系，与G项“There is also a connection between notes and fractions.(音符和分数之间也存在联系。)”表达的含义一致，故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Research shows that students who play an instrument often perform better on math tests, but scientists are not sure why.(研究表明，演奏乐器的学生通常在数学测试中表现更好，但科学家们不确定原因)”可知上文提到了演奏乐器的学生通常在数学测试中表现更好，但科学家们不确定原因，可推理出下文要对出现这种现象的原因进行可能性的推测，与C项“It might be that music helps with math.(可能是音乐有助于数学学习。)”表达的意思相符，是对前文现象原因的一种推测，故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Playing an instrument engages multiple parts of the brain at once - seeing, hearing, and touching all come together in real time.(演奏乐器能同时调动大脑的多个部分——视觉、听觉和触觉都能实时结合在一起。)”可知演奏乐器对大脑有积极作用，与D项 “This makes music excellent mental exercise.(这使得音乐成为极好的脑力锻炼)” 表达的含义一致，前文所述的情况使得音乐成为很好的锻炼大脑的方式，故选D项。 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。 Lu Jiaojiao, a 29-year-old from a village in Yunnan province, has transformed from a rural girl into a thriving businesswoman.

They went to the same school, played on the same soccer team, and even wore matching bracelets (手链). Everyone around them said they were like two sides of the same coin. They believed nothing could come between them. But things started to change when a new girl Daisy came to their class. One day, their teacher, Mr. Lynn, announced a big group project. “Pick a partner,” he said. Emily immediately turned to Zoe, expecting her usual smile and a quick “yes.” But to her surprise. Zoe was already talking to Daisy. “I’m going to work with Daisy this time,” Zoe said to Emily, almost too casually. Emily felt like the air had been knocked out of her. She nodded and forced a smile, but inside, she was confused and hurt. That night, she stared at her phone screen, hoping for a message that never came. Over the next few days, she avoided Zoe. Their texts stopped, they no longer sat together during lunch, and the bracelets they once wore daily were now left at home. Even during class, Emily found it hard to focus, her mind replaying the moment when Zoe chose someone else. Weeks passed. The school organized a three-day camping trip in the mountains. Students were divided into several groups. Emily and Zoe ended up in the same one, along with Daisy and two other classmates. Though they barely spoke, they worked together to put up tents and gather firewood. Their conversations were limited to short, polite exchanges — nothing like before. On the second night, dark clouds rolled in and heavy rain soon followed. Everyone rushed into their own tents. Emily quickly discovered that hers was leaking. Cold and upset, she went outside, seeking for help. The wind howled around her, and each raindrop felt like a tiny needle against her skin. 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。 Just then, she saw a flashlight approaching. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Zoe’s help, they soon fixed the tent. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Just then, she saw a flashlight approaching. In the dim light, Emily recognized it was nobody else but Zoe. Her face was filled with concern when she saw Emily struggling in the cold. “I thought you might need help,” Zoe said softly. Emily’s eyes widened with a mix of surprise and relief. Without a word, Zoe stepped forward and examined the tent. She explained that she could fix it with the spare raincoat she had brought. As they worked together, the awkwardness gradually melted away. Emily realized that Zoe still cared and the rain seemed to have washed away the misunderstandings between them. With Zoe’s help, they soon fixed the tent. Back inside the tent, Emily took a deep breath and said, “I was so hurt when you chose Daisy for the project.” Zoe looked at her apologetically and replied, “I’m sorry. I just thought it would be better to include the new comer, but I never meant to hurt you.” That night, they had an open-hearted conversation, clearing up all the confusion. Until then did they realize that friends need open communication and their bond became even stronger. From then on, they wore their matching bracelets again, a symbol of their unbreakable friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以友谊为线索展开，讲述Emily和Zoe原本是好友，新同学Daisy到来后，Zoe与她交好，Emily心灵受伤，学校露营时，她们分到同一个组，Emily帐篷漏水。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“就在这时，她看到一个手电筒正在靠近。”可知，第一段可描写来的是Zoe，Zoe主动帮忙修理帐篷，两人之间的尴尬逐渐消除。 ②由第二段首句内容“在Zoe的帮助下，她们很快修好了帐篷。”可知，第二段可描写两人在帐篷里敞开心扉交流，消除误会，友谊更加坚固。 2. 续写线索： Zoe前来帮忙——一起修理帐篷——消除尴尬——敞开心扉交流——友谊更坚固 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①认出：recognize/identify ②解释：explain/expound ③选择：choose/select 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②尴尬：awkwardness/embarrassment 【点睛】[高分句型1] Her face was filled with concern when she saw Emily struggling in the cold.
