Raised by my hardworking single mother on Australia’s Gold Coast, I was encouraged to pursue higher education. Though I ranked top academically, my passion was cooking, a path my mother hesitated to support due to its challenges. To please her, I attended university while working part-time as a chef. However, my love for the kitchen soon surpassed my studies, and I dropped out to pursue cooking full-time. Over the next 12 years, I climbed the ranks as a chef, landing head chef positions in North Queensland. Life seemed perfect—I was engaged, had great friends and enjoyed stability. Yet, a lingering restlessness grew within me. A trip to Bali became a turning point. I realized I desired something beyond conventional (守旧) existence. Despite guilt, I walked away from my settled life, returning to my mother’s home on the Gold Coast. Soon, I fell back into old patterns—working in kitchens and feeling unfulfilled. Then, Instagram changed everything. As an early user, I poured my creativity into the platform, discovering a talent for photography and storytelling. By 2012, my audience grew to 200,000 followers, and tourism boards began reaching out. Recognizing the opportunity, I quit my job to pursue travel photography and social media full-time. The early days were tough. I created a “solo influencer package”, offering brands social media content, photography and campaign reports. As a pioneer in Australia’s influencer market, my services became highly popular. I traveled on and on—50 trips a year at my peak—while expanding into consulting, public speaking, and project management. Now, I run a multifaceted (多层面) business, including photography, social media, and travel. I co-founded the Travel Bootcamp, teaching others to build careers in the industry, and launched an online photography course for beginners. Next year, I’ll lead my first photography tour in Zimbabwe, my wife’s homeland, combining my passions with conservation and community support. My journey has been challenging yet deeply fulfilling. Money is no longer the main driver—instead, I seek meaningful experiences and opportunities to inspire others. What began as a small idea has grown into a life of adventure, creativity and purpose. 4. What does the underlined word “surpassed” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Went beyond. B. Broke up. C. Controlled. D. Improved. 5. Why did the author quit his job in North Queensland? A. He wanted to make a trip to Bali. B. He didn’t enjoy working in the kitchen. C He was eager to experience more in life. D. He preferred to live a conventional life. 6. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. Why Instagram changed the author’s mindset. B. Why followers liked to read the author’s posts. C. How Internet benefited millions of online users. D. How the author started a career as a solo influencer. 7. What message does the text convey? A. Big results require big ambitions. B. The future is built on great ideas. C. Bravery never goes out of fashion. D. Your heart is the birthplace of dreams. C When eagles search for food, they can pick up all sorts of things in the bodies of the animals they eat. One dangerous substance is lead (铅), often from ammunition (弹药) found in dead animals. A long-term study has discovered widespread, frequent lead poisoning in bald eagles and golden eagles in North America. The levels are high enough to negatively impact populations of both species. For their study, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, Conservation Science Global, Inc., and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, evaluated lead exposure in bald and golden eagles from 2010 to 2018. They looked for lead exposure in samples from 1,210 bald and golden eagles from 38 states across North America. Their study group included 620 live eagles. Almost 50% of the eagles in the study showed repeated exposure to lead, which was measured in bone samples. About one-third showed short-term exposure, which was calculated in feathers, blood, and liver samples. Researchers also found that the frequency of lead poisoning was influenced by the birds’ age. For bald eagles, it was also affected by region and by season. Levels were higher in winter when eagles rely more heavily on using dead animals as a food source because live ones are more difficult to find. The study suggests that poisoning at this rate is causing population growth to slow by 3.8% for bald eagles annually and by 0.8% for golden eagles each year. Researchers say the study findings are key to helping with conservation methods for eagles. At Conservation Science Global, Slabe says the group has started programs to familiarize hunters with non-lead ammunition. Hunters are offered free or discounted ammunition to try out options that are safer for eagles. Slabe says, “As a result, many hunters voluntarily switch to non-lead ammunition so the offal (内脏) they leave behind do not negatively impact eagles by poisoning their food source.” 8. What does the study focus on? A. The source of lead in eagles’ bodies. B. The effect of lead on eagle populations. C How to prevent eagles from being poisonous. D. How to help eagles reproduce more quickly. 9. How was the study conducted? A. By comparing eagle species. B. By analyzing samples. C. By interviewing birdwatchers. D. By tracking eagles’ behavior. 10. What is one of the findings of the study? A. 50% of eagle deaths were associated with lead poisoning. B. Old eagles were more likely to suffer from lead poisoning. C. Lead poisoning in eagles occurred more frequently in winter. D. Golden eagles are more resistant to lead poisoning than bald eagles. 11. Which word best describes the measures taken by Conservation Science Global? A. Creative. B. Tough. C. Complex. D. Practical. D At any given moment, millions of people suffer from undiagnosed (未确诊) health conditions—diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, or even early signs of neurological diseases—that could be detected earlier with better monitoring. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that delayed diagnosis contributes to nearly 20% of preventable health complications (并发症). What if there was a way to continuously track key health markers without invasive blood tests or frequent doctor visits? Researchers have developed a groundbreaking smart contact lens (隐形眼镜) that can analyze tears to monitor health in real time. Inspired by the natural composition of tears, the lens uses ultra-thin sensors to detect changes in these substances. Their waves can indicate dehydration, high blood sugar, or even signs of stress. The new technology is built on a flexible hydrogel (水凝胶) equipped with biological sensors that react to specific biomarkers. When these substances interact with the sensors, the lens sends out light signals that can be captured by a smartphone camera. An accompanying app then translates these signals into easy-to-understand health data, warning the wearer if any levels fall outside the normal range. The hydrogel material is comfortable for extended wear and minimizes wear-related stress, making it suitable for daily use. Additionally, the lens is designed to maintain clear vision while performing its monitoring functions, ensuring no damage to the wearer’s sight. In tests, the lenses successfully detected abnormal sugar levels in diabetic patients within seconds. When the smartphone app processes the light signals, it provides instant feedback, allowing users to take immediate action if necessary. “While further clinical testing is needed before this technology can be widely adopted our work represents a major step forward in non-invasive health monitoring,” said Dr. Elena Vasquez from Stanford University. “Future versions could integrate additional features, such as drug delivery for conditions like glaucoma, which will be a key focus of our next research phase. We are also exploring partnerships with healthcare providers to make this technology accessible to underserved populations.” 12. What does the author stress in paragraph 1? A. The urgency for early detection of health issues. B. The inefficiency of traditional diagnostic methods. C. The growing burden of deadly diseases worldwide. D. The high cost of monitoring people’s health condition. 13. Why is a hydrogel used in the smart contact lens? A. To change the contact lens’ color. B. To replace the smartphone camera. C. To store real-time health data. D. To ensure comfort and clear vision. 14. What is Dr. Elena Vasquez’s suggestion about? A. The future plans of the research. B. The limitations of future version. C. The challenges of producing the lenses. D. The practical applications of the technology. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Tears Uncover Your Health Secret. B. Contact Lens cure Diseases. C. Smart Lens detect Diseases Early. D. Hydrogel Improves Eyesight. 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。 Stagnation (停滞) is the silent thief of energy. The longer we stay still — physically, mentally or emotionally — the more our life energy gets blocked. ____16____ The solution is not dramatic transformation, but gentle, persistent movement toward strength and joy. The body is our source of energy. ____17____ To change this, build 30 minutes of movement into your day—be it stretching, walking, dancing, or simply standing up more frequently. Cook your own meals when you can. Eating less processed food and more whole food will lighten your digestive load and awaken your physical clarity. A curious mind is a flowing mind. Mental stagnation happens when we stop exposing ourselves to new ideas. Read a few pages daily. Take up a new hobby, or revisit one you dropped. ____18____ Writing even half a page a day can clear the fog in your mind and help you process complex thoughts with greater ease. ____19____ When we suppress how we feel especially anger, sadness or fear, we store it in our bodies which leads to stress. Create safe outlets for emotional expression: talk with a friend, cry when you need to scream into a pillow, or simply write it down. Let your emotions pass through, not pile up. Energy expands in connection. If your circle wears you out, it’s time to make changes. Reach out to someone who inspires you, join a group with shared interests, or simply spend quality time with loved ones. ____20____ A. Trapped emotions are heavy. B. And don’t underestimate the power of journaling. C. Take rest seriously— meditate, nap and spend time alone. D. Deep conversations and shared experiences fuel your emotional flow. E. The energy around us influences our internal state far more than we realize. F. Long hours of sitting, poor sleep, and an inactive lifestyle slow down blood flow. G. Just like a river that stops flowing becomes cloudy, stagnation in life increases stress. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I’ve always been a cat lover — I was born and raised with them.

Ever since she could hold a pencil, she had filled sketchbooks with worlds only she could imagine. Life on Mars, dark waters beneath Antarctica’s ice sheets, an upside-down Earth in another universe — these flowed from her pencil as her imagination ran wild. Now a high school student, she was preparing for an important art competition. Her latest sketchbook held her best ideas, pages of carefully crafted characters and landscapes she had worked on for months. One bright Saturday afternoon, Mia went to the park to sketch under her favorite oak tree. She set her sketchbook beside her and focused on capturing the golden sunlight through the yellow-and-brown leaves dancing in the air. Lost in her imagination, she didn’t notice a gust of wind sweeping through the park — until it was too late. After pulling her arm from her face, Mia reached for her sketchbook. But it was gone. Panic coursed through her. She searched the grass, looked behind the tree and even checked the nearby benches. No hint of her precious sketchbook could be found. With her heart pounding, she ran to the exit of the park, looking carefully at the crowd before her. Had someone picked it up? Just then, a voice interrupted her thoughts. “Looking for something?” Mia turned to see a boy around her age holding a worn-out notebook. His clothes were dirty with charcoal (炭笔), and a pencil stuck out from behind his ear. “My sketchbook — it has a red cover,” she said anxiously. The boy shook his head. “Haven’t seen it, but I can help you look. I’m Leo, by the way.” Mia hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Mia,” she replied. Together, they retraced her steps, asking if anyone had seen a red sketchbook. An elderly woman said a child picked up something near the oak tree. A little girl in a pink dress saw a boy waving something red to his parents. Each clue brought them closer, but Mia couldn’t shake her doubt: What if it was already gone? 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。 “Let’s go to the lost and found stand,” Leo suggested. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As they were leaving in disappointment, a boy showed up. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024级高二上学期校际联合考试 英语 2025.09 本试卷共四部分，共12页。满分150分。考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的条形码粘贴在答题卡相应的位置。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 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.

Raised by my hardworking single mother on Australia’s Gold Coast, I was encouraged to pursue higher education. Though I ranked top academically, my passion was cooking, a path my mother hesitated to support due to its challenges. To please her, I attended university while working part-time as a chef. However, my love for the kitchen soon surpassed my studies, and I dropped out to pursue cooking full-time. Over the next 12 years, I climbed the ranks as a chef, landing head chef positions in North Queensland. Life seemed perfect—I was engaged, had great friends and enjoyed stability. Yet, a lingering restlessness grew within me. A trip to Bali became a turning point. I realized I desired something beyond conventional (守旧) existence. Despite guilt, I walked away from my settled life, returning to my mother’s home on the Gold Coast. Soon, I fell back into old patterns—working in kitchens and feeling unfulfilled. Then, Instagram changed everything. As an early user, I poured my creativity into the platform, discovering a talent for photography and storytelling. By 2012, my audience grew to 200,000 followers, and tourism boards began reaching out. Recognizing the opportunity, I quit my job to pursue travel photography and social media full-time. The early days were tough. I created a “solo influencer package”, offering brands social media content, photography and campaign reports. As a pioneer in Australia’s influencer market, my services became highly popular. I traveled on and on—50 trips a year at my peak—while expanding into consulting, public speaking, and project management. Now, I run a multifaceted (多层面) business, including photography, social media, and travel. I co-founded the Travel Bootcamp, teaching others to build careers in the industry, and launched an online photography course for beginners. Next year, I’ll lead my first photography tour in Zimbabwe, my wife’s homeland, combining my passions with conservation and community support. My journey has been challenging yet deeply fulfilling. Money is no longer the main driver—instead, I seek meaningful experiences and opportunities to inspire others. What began as a small idea has grown into a life of adventure, creativity and purpose. 4. What does the underlined word “surpassed” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Went beyond. B. Broke up. C. Controlled. D. Improved. 5. Why did the author quit his job in North Queensland? A. He wanted to make a trip to Bali. B. He didn’t enjoy working in the kitchen. C. He was eager to experience more in life. D. He preferred to live a conventional life. 6. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. Why Instagram changed the author’s mindset. B. Why followers liked to read the author’s posts. C. How Internet benefited millions of online users. D. How the author started a career as a solo influencer. 7. What message does the text convey? A. Big results require big ambitions. B. The future is built on great ideas. C. Bravery never goes out of fashion. D. Your heart is the birthplace of dreams. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7.

One dangerous substance is lead (铅), often from ammunition (弹药) found in dead animals. A long-term study has discovered widespread, frequent lead poisoning in bald eagles and golden eagles in North America. The levels are high enough to negatively impact populations of both species. For their study, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, Conservation Science Global, Inc., and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, evaluated lead exposure in bald and golden eagles from 2010 to 2018. They looked for lead exposure in samples from 1,210 bald and golden eagles from 38 states across North America. Their study group included 620 live eagles. Almost 50% of the eagles in the study showed repeated exposure to lead, which was measured in bone samples. About one-third showed short-term exposure, which was calculated in feathers, blood, and liver samples. Researchers also found that the frequency of lead poisoning was influenced by the birds’ age. For bald eagles, it was also affected by region and by season. Levels were higher in winter when eagles rely more heavily on using dead animals as a food source because live ones are more difficult to find. The study suggests that poisoning at this rate is causing population growth to slow by 3.8% for bald eagles annually and by 0.8% for golden eagles each year. Researchers say the study findings are key to helping with conservation methods for eagles. At Conservation Science Global, Slabe says the group has started programs to familiarize hunters with non-lead ammunition. Hunters are offered free or discounted ammunition to try out options that are safer for eagles. Slabe says, “As a result, many hunters voluntarily switch to non-lead ammunition so the offal (内脏) they leave behind do not negatively impact eagles by poisoning their food source.” 8 What does the study focus on? A. The source of lead in eagles’ bodies. B. The effect of lead on eagle populations. C. How to prevent eagles from being poisonous. D. How to help eagles reproduce more quickly. 9. How was the study conducted? A. By comparing eagle species. B. By analyzing samples. C. By interviewing birdwatchers. D. By tracking eagles’ behavior. 10. What is one of the findings of the study? A. 50% of eagle deaths were associated with lead poisoning. B. Old eagles were more likely to suffer from lead poisoning. C. Lead poisoning in eagles occurred more frequently in winter. D. Golden eagles are more resistant to lead poisoning than bald eagles. 11. Which word best describes the measures taken by Conservation Science Global? A. Creative. B. Tough. C. Complex. D. Practical. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了北美地区白头鹰和金雕普遍存在的铅中毒问题。研究发现，这些鹰类因食用含有铅弹药的死动物而导致铅中毒，对种群数量产生了负面影响。此外，保护科学全球组织等机构已采取措施，鼓励猎人使用无铅弹药，以减少对鹰类的危害。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“A long-term study has discovered widespread, frequent lead poisoning in bald eagles and golden eagles in North America.

In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that delayed diagnosis contributes to nearly 20% of preventable health complications (并发症). What if there was a way to continuously track key health markers without invasive blood tests or frequent doctor visits? Researchers have developed a groundbreaking smart contact lens (隐形眼镜) that can analyze tears to monitor health in real time. Inspired by the natural composition of tears, the lens uses ultra-thin sensors to detect changes in these substances. Their waves can indicate dehydration, high blood sugar, or even signs of stress. The new technology is built on a flexible hydrogel (水凝胶) equipped with biological sensors that react to specific biomarkers. When these substances interact with the sensors, the lens sends out light signals that can be captured by a smartphone camera. An accompanying app then translates these signals into easy-to-understand health data, warning the wearer if any levels fall outside the normal range. The hydrogel material is comfortable for extended wear and minimizes wear-related stress, making it suitable for daily use. Additionally, the lens is designed to maintain clear vision while performing its monitoring functions, ensuring no damage to the wearer’s sight. In tests, the lenses successfully detected abnormal sugar levels in diabetic patients within seconds. When the smartphone app processes the light signals, it provides instant feedback, allowing users to take immediate action if necessary. “While further clinical testing is needed before this technology can be widely adopted, our work represents a major step forward in non-invasive health monitoring,” said Dr. Elena Vasquez from Stanford University. “Future versions could integrate additional features, such as drug delivery for conditions like glaucoma, which will be a key focus of our next research phase. We are also exploring partnerships with healthcare providers to make this technology accessible to underserved populations.” 12. What does the author stress in paragraph 1? A. The urgency for early detection of health issues. B. The inefficiency of traditional diagnostic methods. C. The growing burden of deadly diseases worldwide. D. The high cost of monitoring people’s health condition. 13. Why is a hydrogel used in the smart contact lens? A. To change the contact lens’ color. B. To replace the smartphone camera. C. To store real-time health data. D. To ensure comfort and clear vision. 14. What is Dr. Elena Vasquez’s suggestion about? A. The future plans of the research. B. The limitations of future version. C. The challenges of producing the lenses. D. The practical applications of the technology. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Tears Uncover Your Health Secret. B. Contact Lens cure Diseases. C. Smart Lens detect Diseases Early. D. Hydrogel Improves Eyesight. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15.

Ever since she could hold a pencil, she had filled sketchbooks with worlds only she could imagine. Life on Mars, dark waters beneath Antarctica’s ice sheets, an upside-down Earth in another universe — these flowed from her pencil as her imagination ran wild. Now a high school student, she was preparing for an important art competition. Her latest sketchbook held her best ideas, pages of carefully crafted characters and landscapes she had worked on for months. One bright Saturday afternoon, Mia went to the park to sketch under her favorite oak tree. She set her sketchbook beside her and focused on capturing the golden sunlight through the yellow-and-brown leaves dancing in the air. Lost in her imagination, she didn’t notice a gust of wind sweeping through the park — until it was too late. After pulling her arm from her face, Mia reached for her sketchbook. But it was gone. Panic coursed through her. She searched the grass, looked behind the tree and even checked the nearby benches. No hint of her precious sketchbook could be found. With her heart pounding, she ran to the exit of the park, looking carefully at the crowd before her. Had someone picked it up? Just then, a voice interrupted her thoughts. “Looking for something?” Mia turned to see a boy around her age holding a worn-out notebook. His clothes were dirty with charcoal (炭笔), and a pencil stuck out from behind his ear. “My sketchbook — it has a red cover,” she said anxiously. The boy shook his head. “Haven’t seen it, but I can help you look. I’m Leo, by the way.” Mia hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Mia,” she replied. Together, they retraced her steps, asking if anyone had seen a red sketchbook. An elderly woman said a child picked up something near the oak tree. A little girl in a pink dress saw a boy waving something red to his parents. Each clue brought them closer, but Mia couldn’t shake her doubt: What if it was already gone? 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。 “Let’s go to the lost and found stand,” Leo suggested. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As they were leaving in disappointment, a boy showed up. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】“Let’s go to the lost-and-found stand,” Leo suggested. Mia nodded, clutching her empty hands together as they hurried towards the small wooden stand near the park entrance. She prayed silently that her sketchbook, filled with months of hard work and dreams, would be there waiting for her. To her great excitement, there it was — her red sketchbook, sitting proudly among a pile of lost items. She let out a sigh of relief and grabbed it. “Thank you, Leo,” she said, her voice trembling with gratitude. Leo smiled, a hint of pride in his eyes. “But I didn’t see my eraser as I had expected, which was extremely valuable and precious to me.” Mia added. As they were leaving in disappointment, a boy showed up. In his hands, he clutched a small object that Mia recognized instantly — her eraser. “I found this near the oak tree,” he said, handing it to her. “Thank you so much,” she said, bending down to his level. “You’ve made my day.” The boy’s eyes sparkled with joy, and he ran off to join his waiting family. Mia and Leo exchanged a knowing smile, grateful for the kindness of strangers that had brought her sketchbook and eraser back to her. At the moment, Mia felt a renewed sense of hope and determination, ready to face the art competition with her heart full of gratitude and inspiration. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章主要讲述了热爱画画的高中生Mia在公园画画时，不小心遗失了装满心血作品的红色封面素描本。在热心少年Leo的帮助下，他们一路寻找线索，最终在公园的失物招领处找回了素描本。就在他们准备离开时，一个男孩又归还了Mia遗失的橡皮擦。Mia对陌生人的善举充满感激，带着失而复得的素描本和橡皮擦，以及满心的希望和决心，准备迎接即将到来的艺术比赛。 详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘我们去失物招领处吧，’Leo建议道。”可知，第一段可描写Mia和Leo去失物招领处寻找素描本的经过，以及找到素描本时的激动心情，以及未找到自己橡皮时的失落。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在他们满怀失望地准备离开时，一个男孩出现了。”可知，第二段可描写就在Mia和Leo失望离开时，一个男孩出现并归还了Mia的橡皮擦，Mia对此表示感激。 2.续写线索： 寻找素描本——发现素描本——丢失橡皮擦——归还橡皮擦——感激陌生人——重燃希望 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓住：clutch/grasp ②颤抖：tremble/quiver ③面对：face/confront 情绪类 ①激动：excitement/thrill/elation ②开心：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1].
