While living in Manhattan for some 15 years in the 1980s and early 1990s, Nannini only commuted (通勤) on the one train-given the subway system’s bad reputation. But after relocating to New Jersey for several years where subway is not an option, Nannini found that absence did make the heart grow fonder — maybe even for pizza rats. During her visit back to New York, Nannini nodded, noticing improvements in the subway’s facilities. While Nannini was waiting for a train, a bench on the platform opposite caught her attention due to the ever changing faces and characters. They were people of different accents, colors and beliefs. They were from all walks of life, a diverse mix of New Yorkers all there for their own different reasons. Having learned the teenagers’ popular “End of the Line” challenge — boarding trains at random and riding them until their final destination; Nannini decided to visit every first and last stop across the NY subway’s lines with her beloved camera. Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience saw her traveling some 665 miles across 26 routes in New York city. She took over 8,000 photos of the final stations, as well as the communities they served. In many cases, she rode the routes two or three times over to ensure she got “the shot”. “The project really shows me how important the subway is, and how sustainable it makes our lives,” she said “It’s often said that my photos show the end of the lines — the last stops,” she said. “But the end of the line is indeed the start for so many people. That made me think about who the people and the communities that live at the two ends are and what it is that the subway means to them.” Nannini was proud of her set of images directly challenging the traditions of story telling, which echoed both the boredom and excitement of travel on tracks. Nannini enjoyed taking her time, starting her challenge in 2013 and only shooting the final photos last year. Her first monograph on the terminal stops of the NY subway was released in April 2023. “When you drive in the suburbs, you don’t have those encounters,” she continued. “People enter your life on the subway. That’s what strikes me most on my journey on tracks.” 24. How did Nannini find the New York subway during her revisit? A. It tumed out fine. B. It was depressing. C. It still held the same bad reputation. D. It would be her only commuting option. 25. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The diversity of New Yorkers’ daily life. B. The inspiration for Nannini’s subway shots. C. The popularity of “End of the Line” challenge. D. The challenges of Nannini’s job as a photographer. 26. What can we infer from Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience? A. Her way of telling stories is traditional. B. She expressed sympathy for the subway riders. C. Her photography is highly expected by the encounters. D. She found life on tracks was more interesting than life on wheels. 27. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. “End of the Line” Challenge: A New Trend in NY Subways B. The Road Home: Rita Nannini’s Record of her Subway Ride C. Last Stop to New Start: A Photographer’s Rediscovery of NY Subways D. New Yorkers’ Routine: A Surprising Mixture of Boredom andExcitement C Danone Portugal introduced a new yogurt named Juntos. For every pack of yogurt that a person bought, he would donate yogurt to a family in need. Danone had done its research. Increasingly, people say they want to buy from brands that give them a sense of purpose. Surely a yogurt that helped the needy would be appealing. But Juntos was a failure. Despite sinking millions into a marketing campaign, Danone pulled Juntos from the market only months after it was launched. Now the same product is simply marketed as a tasty yogurt. What happened? To find the reason behind Juntos’ failure, Lawrence Williams and his colleagues did an experiment where they showed people some products and asked these people to pick one option. They reminded some to focus on the “purposeful and valuable” aspect while others were told to “enjoy themselves” and focus on “delight and pleasure.” They found that participants who prioritized meaning preferred the less expensive product when compared with people who put pleasure in the first place. So why were meaning-seekers cheaping out? Lawrence Williams asked participants to explain their decision-making to find out. He learned that meaning-oriented people were not thinking about how the product they might buy could bring meaning to their lives. Instead, they were occupied with what else they could do with their money. I am all for people making wise and strategic financial choices. But cheap products can create many problems. Inexpensive options often do not last as long as the higher-end ones. As a result, we shop more often, which is ultimately worse for our wallets. Plus, that spending pattern can do a greater damage to the environment. Thanks in part to fast fashion, people buy 60 percent more clothing today than they did 15 years ago. The fashion industry alone emits more greenhouse gases than international flights and maritime (海洋的) shipping combined. So before you dive into your wallet for some deals, try not to fix only on what you are spending or saving. Think carefully about what you are buying, too. 28. What is the main reason for the failure of Juntos? A. It ignored marketing strategies. B. It priced itself relatively high. C. It lacked a particularly good taste. D. It focused on delight and pleasure. 29. What can be inferred about meaning seekers? A. They frequent high-end stores. B. They think products extend their lives. C. They hesitate to make decisions. D. They make more purchases with money. 30. How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed? A. By giving some examples. B. By listing numbers and data. C. By explaining reasons. D. By making some comparisons. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Innovation: a Product’s Life B. To Buy or not to Buy C. Meaning seekers or Quality-pursuers D. Fast Fashion: a Hit to Your Wallet D The conventional wisdom about insects has been that they are unthinking, unfeeling creatures whose behavior is entirely hardwired (天生的). But in the 1990s researchers began making surprising discoveries about insect minds. Some species of wasps (黄蜂) recognize their nest mates’ faces and acquire impressive social skills. For example, they can infer the fighting strengths of other wasps relative to their own just by watching other wasps fight among themselves. Given the substantial work on the complexity of insect cognition (认知), it might seem surprising that it took scientists so long to ask whether, if they are that smart, could also be sentient, capable of feeling. Since we have no direct window into the inner world of an animal that cannot verbally communicate its thoughts and feelings, the question of whether insects are sentient remained academic. 15 years ago, I performed an experiment in which we asked whether bumblebees could learn about t hreat from their natural enemies. We built a plastic spider model with a mechanism that would briefly trap a bumblebee between two sponges before releasing it. The bumblebees showed a significant change in their behavior after being attacked by the robotic spider. Perhaps unsurprisingly, they learned to avoid flowers with spiders and meticulously scanned every flower before landing. Curiously, however, they some times even fled from imaginary threats, scanning and then abandoning a perfectly safe, spider-free flower. Although this incidental observation did not constitute formal ev idence of an emotionlike state, it did open the door to the idea that such states might exist in insects. Some research suggested that insects might have positive states of mind. Researchers discovered that bees actively seek out drugs such as nicotin e and caffein e when given the choice and even treat themselves with nicotin e when sick. Male fruit flies stressed by being robbed of mating opportunities prefer food containing alcohol, and bees even show withdrawal symptoms when removed from an alcohol-rich diet. Why would insects consume mind-altering substances if there isn't a mind to alter? But these suggestive hints of negative and positive mind states still fell short of what was needed to demonstrate that insects are sentient. 32. What does the example of the wasps indicate? A. Insects show signs of intelligence. B. Insects can do complex calculations. C. Insects can socialize in a skillful way. D. Insects live in highly complex societies. 33. What does the underlined word “meticulously” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hesitantly. B. Casually. C. Eagerly. D. Carefully. 34. What was unexpected about the bumblebees’ behavior in the experiment? A. They avoided flowers with spiders. B. They settled on flowers despite threats. C. They might abandon spider-free flowers. D. They might get scared away by other insects. 35. What does the text mainly discuss? A. What insects' various behavior can reveal. B. How insects communicate their thoughts. C. What amazing powers insects possess. D. Whether insects are capable of feeling. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When raindrops fall to the ground in summer, a familiar scent always follows. Many people call this the “smell of rain”. However, rain is made up of odorless (无味的) water. So, where does this smell come from? ___36___ But it actually comes from wet soil. This special odor even has its own name: petrichor (潮土油), which comes from a pair of chemical reactions. The pleasant smell has long been an interest of scientists since Australian scientists first documented the formation of petrichor in 1964. According to scientists, some plants produce oils during dry periods. ___37___ Yet, it’s the second reaction that creates the most petrichor. It occurs when chemicals produced by bacteria in soil are released. ___38___ These bacteria break down and change into simple chemical compounds, providing nutrition for plants. Meanwhile the process also produces geosmin (土臭素), a compound with a distinct earthy aroma (香味). Lots of animals are sensitive to geosmin but human beings are extremely sensitive to it. When it rains after a long period of dryness, drops of water hit the ground. Geosmin is then released from the surfaces. ___39___ And it finally gives raindrops their familiar scent. If it rains heavily enough, geosmin will be spread downwind, warning others of coming rain. ___40___ And the next time someone mentions how much they love the smell of rain, you can prove your intelligence by explaining where that smell comes from. A. And when it rains, these oils are released into the air. B. The smell of petrichor is quite pleasant to the human nose. C. There are a group of microorganisms widely found in soils. D. Rain can refresh the soil specially when it rains heavily. E. Scientists found the distinctive smell doesn’t come from rain. F. The pleasant smell always comes into being with the flow of air. G. It is further spread around its surroundings with the aid of wind and rain. 第三部分：语言运用（共三节，满分55分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A，B，C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A mother of three in Cowdenbeath, Scotland, was awarded for what she did in the middle of a snowstorm last week.

Never had she imagined loneliness would wrap around her like a shadow. Soon she found herself dreaming of her old eight-grade class, which had been small, but warm and familiar. For her, this new school was much too cold, unfriendly, and indifferent. Each morning, Alma’s stomach twisted as she pushed through the heavy school doors. Students brushed past her without a glance as if she were invisible. No one at this school seemed to care whether she belonged or not. Though she was caring and kind-hearted, her shy voice was always caught in her throat and her eyes were downcast when she tried to say something, which particularly became a barrier to friendship. The few classmates did notice her existence only when they needed something — a pencil to borrow, or favors that never returned. Tammy, her “so-called” closest friend, who was busy with her speech competition, smiled only when she needed answers for a test or help with her homework. Day after day, she moved through the halls like a ghost, unheard and unseen. Slowly, she began to believe her thoughts weren’t good enough to be heard. So she continued to stay quiet and almost mute. This pushed Alma closer to the edge. Her parents grew increasingly worried about her, for they feared she would never make friends. Her parents tried everything they could to help her fit in. However, it still didn’t work. Night after night, she cried herself to sleep and was convinced that no one would ever truly care for her and love her enough to be her real friend. As that semester was coming to an end, Alma decided to take one last chance. With trembling hands, she signed up for the Speech Club, though she expected nothing. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 One afternoon, a card on her desk caught her eyes. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, Alma’s world began to change. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海南中学2025-2026学年度高三第零次英语试题 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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What do we know about Tom?

I used to take pictures of landscapes and people during my free time. It was my way of capturing life's beautiful moments and expressing my creativity. Little did I expect that this passion would lead to a career. Over time, I improved my skills by experimenting with various techniques and attending photography workshops. Friends and family began to notice my talent and asked me to photograph their events. This was the turning point. I started doing small jobs like capturing weddings, parties and special moments. Word of mouth quickly spread and soon I was in demand as a photographer. As my client base expanded, so did my confidence and ambition. I realized I could turn my hobby into a full-time career. However, this journey had its challenges. The pressure of delivering perfect photos, the irregular income and the competition in the photography world tested my patience. Now I've established my own photography business, specializing in portrait photography. I've traveled to beautiful places, met wonderful people and captured countless unforgettable moments. My future plans include exploring new types of photography, teaching ambitious photographers and continuing to find new ways to tell domestic stories through my camera. 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 A Aurora Borealis (北极光), the Northern Lights, showcases beautiful green, pink, blue and violet-colored lights dancing in the night sky.

(这座城市在9月至4月期间拥有最佳的北极光景观)”可知，游客可以观看北极光大约八个月；Yellowknife, Canada讲到“with the best views from mid-November to early April (11月中旬至4月初的最佳景色)”可知，游客可以观看北极光大约七个月；文章Lapland, Finland段讲到“Travelers can expect to see the Northern Lights from late August to April.

While living in Manhattan for some 15 years in the 1980s and early 1990s, Nannini only commuted (通勤) on the one train-given the subway system’s bad reputation. But after relocating to New Jersey for several years where subway is not an option, Nannini found that absence did make the heart grow fonder — maybe even for pizza rats. During her visit back to New York, Nannini nodded, noticing improvements in the subway’s facilities. While Nannini was waiting for a train, a bench on the platform opposite caught her attention due to the ever changing faces and characters. They were people of different accents, colors and beliefs. They were from all walks of life, a diverse mix of New Yorkers all there for their own different reasons. Having learned the teenagers’ popular “End of the Line” challenge — boarding trains at random and riding them until their final destination; Nannini decided to visit every first and last stop across the NY subway’s lines with her beloved camera. Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience saw her traveling some 665 miles across 26 routes in New York city. She took over 8,000 photos of the final stations, as well as the communities they served. In many cases, she rode the routes two or three times over to ensure she got “the shot”. “The project really shows me how important the subway is, and how sustainable it makes our lives,” she said “It’s often said that my photos show the end of the lines — the last stops,” she said. “But the end of the line is indeed the start for so many people. That made me think about who the people and the communities that live at the two ends are and what it is that the subway means to them.” Nannini was proud of her set of images directly challenging the traditions of story telling, which echoed both the boredom and excitement of travel on tracks. Nannini enjoyed taking her time, starting her challenge in 2013 and only shooting the final photos last year. Her first monograph on the terminal stops of the NY subway was released in April 2023. “When you drive in the suburbs, you don’t have those encounters,” she continued. “People enter your life on the subway. That’s what strikes me most on my journey on tracks.” 24. How did Nannini find the New York subway during her revisit? A. It tumed out fine. B. It was depressing. C. It still held the same bad reputation. D. It would be her only commuting option. 25. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The diversity of New Yorkers’ daily life. B. The inspiration for Nannini’s subway shots. C. The popularity of “End of the Line” challenge. D. The challenges of Nannini’s job as a photographer. 26. What can we infer from Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience? A. Her way of telling stories is traditional. B. She expressed sympathy for the subway riders. C. Her photography is highly expected by the encounters. D. She found life on tracks was more interesting than life on wheels. 27. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. “End of the Line” Challenge: A New Trend in NY Subways B. The Road Home: Rita Nannini’s Record of her Subway Ride C. Last Stop to New Start: A Photographer’s Rediscovery of NY Subways D. New Yorkers’ Routine: A Surprising Mixture of Boredom andExcitement 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了摄影师丽塔·南尼尼重返纽约后对地铁始发站和终点站拍照的经历及其感慨。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But after relocating to New Jersey for several years where subway is not an option, Nannini found that absence did make the heart grow fonder — maybe even for pizza rats. During her visit back to New York, Nannini nodded, noticing improvements in the subway’s facilities(但是，在搬到新泽西州几年后，由于当地没有地铁可选，南尼尼发现，缺失反而让她的心中更加思念——也许甚至对吃披萨的老鼠来说也是如此。南尼尼回到纽约时，她点了点头，注意到地铁设施有所改善。)”可知，南尼尼再次回到纽约，她感到地铁设施有所改善，很不错。故选A项。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“While Nannini was waiting for a train, a bench on the platform opposite caught her attention due to the ever changing faces and characters(南尼尼在等火车时，对面站台上的一个长椅吸引了她的注意，因为上面的人脸和角色总是不断变换着。)”以及“Having learned the teenagers’ popular “End of the Line” challenge — boarding trains at random and riding them until their final destination; Nannini decided to visit every first and last stop across the NY subway’s lines with her beloved camera.(在了解了青少年们流行的‘终点线’挑战——即随机登上火车并一直坐到终点后，南尼尼决定带着她心爱的相机，走访纽约地铁线路上的每一个首发站和终点站。)”可知，本段讲的是Nannini在地铁站看到的人物与景象，促使她决定带着她心爱的相机，走遍纽约地铁的每一站和最后一站，即本段讲述了Nannini拍摄地铁照片的灵感来源，故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““When you drive in the suburbs, you don’t have those encounters,” she continued. “People enter your life on the subway. That’s what strikes me most on my jouney on tracks.”(她继续说：‘你在郊区开车时，你不会有这样的邂逅。人们是在地铁上走进你的生活。这就是我在轨道旅途中最让我震撼的事情。’)”可推理出，南尼尼认为乘坐地铁的生活比开车的生活更有趣，故选D项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“During her visit back toNew York, Nannini nodded, noticing improvements in the subway’s facilities(在回访纽约期间南尼尼点头称赞，注意到地铁设施的改善。)”、第四段“It’s often said that my photos show the end of the lines — the last stops,” she said. “But the end of the line is indeed the start for so many people. That made me think about who the people and the communities that live at the two ends are and what it is that the subway means to them”(‘人们常说我的照片展示了线路的终点——最后一站。’她说：‘但对于那些很多人来说，终点实际上是起点。这让我思考起生活在两端的人们和社区是谁，以及地铁对他们意味着什么。’)”以及最后一段““When you drive in the suburbs, you don’t have those encounters,” she continued. “People enter your life on the subway. That ‘s what strikes me most on my jouney on tracks.’(她继续说：‘你在郊区开车时，你不会有这样的邂逅。人们是在地铁上走进你的生活。这就是我在轨道旅途中最让我震撼的事情。’)”可知本文主要讲的是摄影师丽塔·南尼尼重返纽约后对地铁始发站和终点站拍照的经历及其感慨；C项“Last Stop to New Start: A Photographer’s Rediscovery of NY Subways(最后一站到新起点：摄影师重新发现纽约地铁)”能够概括文章主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选C项。 C Danone Portugal introduced a new yogurt named Juntos. For every pack of yogurt that a person bought, he would donate yogurt to a family in need. Danone had done its research. Increasingly, people say they want to buy from brands that give them a sense of purpose. Surely a yogurt that helped the needy would be appealing. But Juntos was a failure. Despite sinking millions into a marketing campaign, Danone pulled Juntos from the market only months after it was launched. Now the same product is simply marketed as a tasty yogurt. What happened? To find the reason behind Juntos’ failure, Lawrence Williams and his colleagues did an experiment where they showed people some products and asked these people to pick one option. They reminded some to focus on the “purposeful and valuable” aspect while others were told to “enjoy themselves” and focus on “delight and pleasure.” They found that participants who prioritized meaning preferred the less expensive product when compared with people who put pleasure in the first place. So why were meaning-seekers cheaping out? Lawrence Williams asked participants to explain their decision-making to find out. He learned that meaning-oriented people were not thinking about how the product they might buy could bring meaning to their lives. Instead, they were occupied with what else they could do with their money. I am all for people making wise and strategic financial choices. But cheap products can create many problems. Inexpensive options often do not last as long as the higher-end ones. As a result, we shop more often, which is ultimately worse for our wallets. Plus, that spending pattern can do a greater damage to the environment. Thanks in part to fast fashion, people buy 60 percent more clothing today than they did 15 years ago. The fashion industry alone emits more greenhouse gases than international flights and maritime (海洋的) shipping combined. So before you dive into your wallet for some deals, try not to fix only on what you are spending or saving. Think carefully about what you are buying, too. 28. What is the main reason for the failure of Juntos? A. It ignored marketing strategies. B. It priced itself relatively high. C. It lacked a particularly good taste. D. It focused on delight and pleasure. 29. What can be inferred about meaning seekers? A. They frequent high-end stores. B. They think products extend their lives. C. They hesitate to make decisions. D. They make more purchases with money. 30. How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed? A. By giving some examples. B. By listing numbers and data. C. By explaining reasons. D. By making some comparisons. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Innovation: a Product’s Life B. To Buy or not to Buy C. Meaning seekers or Quality-pursuers D. Fast Fashion: a Hit to Your Wallet 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章就通过消费来做有意义的事情，到底应该买贵的还是廉价的产品进行讨论。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Increasingly, people say they want to buy from brands that give them a sense of purpose. Surely a yogurt that helped the needy would be appealing. But Juntos was a failure. (越来越多的人表示，他们想从那些给他们目标感的品牌那里购买。当然，帮助穷人的酸奶会很有吸引力。但Juntos是个失败者。)”和第二段“What happened? To find the reason behind Juntos’ failure, Lawrence Williams and his colleagues did an experiment where they showed people some products and asked these people to pick one option. They reminded some to focus on the “purposeful and valuable” aspect while others were told to “enjoy themselves” and focus on “delight and pleasure.” They found that participants who prioritized meaning preferred the less expensive product when compared with people who put pleasure in the first place. (发生了什么事?为了找出Juntos失败的原因，Lawrence Williams和他的同事们做了一个实验，他们向人们展示了一些产品，并让这些人选择一种。他们提醒一些人专注于“有目的和有价值”的方面，而另一些人则被告知“享受自己”，专注于“快乐和乐趣”。他们发现，与把快乐放在首位的人相比，把意义放在首位的人更喜欢便宜的产品。)”可知，越来越多的人想从那些给他们目标感的品牌那里购买（即购买便宜的产品），Juntos失败的主要原因是它的定价相对较高，所以买的人少，最后失败了。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“So why were meaning-seekers cheaping out? Lawrence Williams asked participants to explain their decision-making to find out. He learned that meaning-oriented people were not thinking about how the product they might buy could bring meaning to their lives. Instead, they were occupied with what else they could do with their money. (那么，为什么寻求意义的人要买便宜的东西呢?为了找出答案，劳伦斯·威廉姆斯要求参与者解释他们的决策。他了解到，以意义为导向的人不会考虑他们可能购买的产品如何给他们的生活带来意义。相反，他们专注于思考自己的钱能带来什么其他东西。)”可推测意义追求者专注于用钱买更多的东西，故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“I am all for people making wise and strategic financial choices. But cheap products can create many problems. Inexpensive options often do not last as long as the higher-end ones. As a result, we shop more often, which is ultimately worse for our wallets. Plus, that spending pattern can do a greater damage to the environment. (我完全支持人们做出明智和战略性的财务选择。但是廉价的产品会产生很多问题。便宜的选择通常不会像高端的选择持续那么久。结果，我们更频繁地购物，这最终对我们的钱包更不利。此外，这种消费模式会对环境造成更大的破坏。)”可推断作者通过解释买廉价的产品会产生很多问题的原因来发展第四段，故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第四段“I am all for people making wise and strategic financial choices. But cheap products can create many problems. Inexpensive options often do not last as long as the higher-end ones. As a result, we shop more often, which is ultimately worse for our wallets. Plus, that spending pattern can do a greater damage to the environment. (我完全支持人们做出明智和战略性的财务选择。但是廉价的产品会产生很多问题。便宜的选择通常不会像高端的选择持续那么久。结果，我们更频繁地购物，这最终对我们的钱包更不利。此外，这种消费模式会对环境造成更大的破坏。)”和最后一段“So before you dive into your wallet for some deals, try not to fix only on what you are spending or saving. Think carefully about what you are buying, too. (所以，在你为一些交易掏腰包之前，尽量不要只关注你花了多少钱或存了多少钱。也要仔细考虑你要买的东西。)”可知文章主要是对通过消费来做有意义的事情，到底应该买贵的还是廉价的产品进行讨论，C选项“意义追求者还是品质追求者”符合文章主旨，故选C。 D The conventional wisdom about insects has been that they are unthinking, unfeeling creatures whose behavior is entirely hardwired (天生的). But in the 1990s researchers began making surprising discoveries about insect minds. Some species of wasps (黄蜂) recognize their nest mates’ faces and acquire impressive social skills. For example, they can infer the fighting strengths of other wasps relative to their own just by watching other wasps fight among themselves. Given the substantial work on the complexity of insect cognition (认知), it might seem surprising that it took scientists so long to ask whether, if they are that smart, could also be sentient, capable of feeling. Since we have no direct window into the inner world of an animal that cannot verbally communicate its thoughts and feelings, the question of whether insects are sentient remained academic. 15 years ago, I performed an experiment in which we asked whether bumblebees could learn about t hreat from their natural enemies. We built a plastic spider model with a mechanism that would briefly trap a bumblebee between two sponges before releasing it. The bumblebees showed a significant change in their behavior after being attacked by the robotic spider. Perhaps unsurprisingly, they learned to avoid flowers with spiders and meticulously scanned every flower before landing. Curiously, however, they some times even fled from imaginary threats, scanning and then abandoning a perfectly safe, spider-free flower. Although this incidental observation did not constitute formal ev idence of an emotionlike state, it did open the door to the idea that such states might exist in insects. Some research suggested that insects might have positive states of mind. Researchers discovered that bees actively seek out drugs such as nicotin e and caffein e when given the choice and even treat themselves with nicotin e when sick. Male fruit flies stressed by being robbed of mating opportunities prefer food containing alcohol, and bees even show withdrawal symptoms when removed from an alcohol-rich diet. Why would insects consume mind-altering substances if there isn't a mind to alter? But these suggestive hints of negative and positive mind states still fell short of what was needed to demonstrate that insects are sentient. 32. What does the example of the wasps indicate? A. Insects show signs of intelligence. B. Insects can do complex calculations. C. Insects can socialize in a skillful way. D. Insects live in highly complex societies. 33. What does the underlined word “meticulously” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hesitantly. B. Casually. C. Eagerly. D. Carefully. 34. What was unexpected about the bumblebees’ behavior in the experiment? A. They avoided flowers with spiders. B. They settled on flowers despite threats. C. They might abandon spider-free flowers. D. They might get scared away by other insects. 35. What does the text mainly discuss? A. What insects' various behavior can reveal. B. How insects communicate their thoughts. C. What amazing powers insects possess. D. Whether insects are capable of feeling. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇议论文，文章探讨了昆虫是否也有感受。 【详解】1.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Some species of wasps recognize their nest mates’ faces and acquire impressive social skills. For example, they can infer the fighting strengths of other wasps relative to their own just by watching other wasps fight among themselves.(有些种类的黄蜂能认出巢中同伴的脸，并获得令人印象深刻的社交技巧。例如，它们可以通过观察其他黄蜂之间的战斗来推断出其他黄蜂相对于自己的战斗力)”可知，作者用黄蜂举例是为了证明昆虫有判断力，有智力的迹象。故选A项。 2.词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“The bumblebees showed a significant change in their behavior after being attacked by the robotic spider. Perhaps unsurprisingly, they learned to avoid flowers with spiders(在被机器蜘蛛攻击后，大黄蜂的行为发生了重大变化。不出所料，它们学会了避开有蜘蛛的花朵)”及“scanned every flower before landing(着陆前扫描了每一朵花)”可知，在遭到蜘蛛机器人的攻击之后，大黄蜂们学会了避开满是蜘蛛的花朵，并且在停歇之前会仔细地查看每一朵花。 meticulously与carefully同义，为“仔细地、小心地”。故选D项。 3.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Curiously, however, they sometimes even fled from imaginary threats, scanning and then abandoning a perfectly safe, spider-free flower.(然而，奇怪的是，它们有时甚至会逃离想象中的威胁，扫描并放弃一朵完全安全、没有蜘蛛的花)”可知，奇怪的是，大黄蜂们可能会放弃没有蜘蛛的花朵。故选C项。 4.主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Given the substantial work on the complexity of insect cognition, it might seem surprising that it took scientists so long to ask whether, if they are that smart, could also be sentient, capable of feeling.(考虑到对昆虫认知复杂性的大量研究，科学家们花了这么长时间才提出这样的问题，如果它们真的那么聪明，它们是否也有知觉，能够感知，这似乎令人惊讶)”及全文内容可知，文章探讨了昆虫是否也有感受这个问题。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When raindrops fall to the ground in summer, a familiar scent always follows. Many people call this the “smell of rain”. However, rain is made up of odorless (无味的) water. So, where does this smell come from? ___36___ But it actually comes from wet soil. This special odor even has its own name: petrichor (潮土油), which comes from a pair of chemical reactions. The pleasant smell has long been an interest of scientists since Australian scientists first documented the formation of petrichor in 1964. According to scientists, some plants produce oils during dry periods. ___37___ Yet, it’s the second reaction that creates the most petrichor. It occurs when chemicals produced by bacteria in soil are released. ___38___ These bacteria break down and change into simple chemical compounds, providing nutrition for plants. Meanwhile the process also produces geosmin (土臭素), a compound with a distinct earthy aroma (香味). Lots of animals are sensitive to geosmin but human beings are extremely sensitive to it. When it rains after a long period of dryness, drops of water hit the ground. Geosmin is then released from the surfaces. ___39___ And it finally gives raindrops their familiar scent. If it rains heavily enough, geosmin will be spread downwind, warning others of coming rain. ___40___ And the next time someone mentions how much they love the smell of rain, you can prove your intelligence by explaining where that smell comes from. A. And when it rains, these oils are released into the air. B. The smell of petrichor is quite pleasant to the human nose. C. There are a group of microorganisms widely found in soils. D. Rain can refresh the soil specially when it rains heavily. E. Scientists found the distinctive smell doesn’t come from rain. F. The pleasant smell always comes into being with the flow of air. G. It is further spread around its surroundings with the aid of wind and rain. 【答案】36. E 37. A 38. C 39. G 40.

But ____56____ (trial) of a four day work week in Iceland were considered remarkably successful. They led to many workers ____57____ (move) to shorter hours and workers around the world are following the trend. Why has this practice gained popularity and is it possible to apply it cross ____58____ (cultural)? The trials, ____59____ involved more than 2,500 workers, took place in 2015. It was reported that ____60____ (produce) remained the same or improved in the majority of workplaces. Meanwhile, they found their working conditions were less ____61____ (stress) and they were no longer at risk of burnout, and their health and work life balance had also improved.

Never had she imagined loneliness would wrap around her like a shadow. Soon she found herself dreaming of her old eight-grade class, which had been small, but warm and familiar. For her, this new school was much too cold, unfriendly, and indifferent. Each morning, Alma’s stomach twisted as she pushed through the heavy school doors. Students brushed past her without a glance as if she were invisible. No one at this school seemed to care whether she belonged or not. Though she was caring and kind-hearted, her shy voice was always caught in her throat and her eyes were downcast when she tried to say something, which particularly became a barrier to friendship. The few classmates did notice her existence only when they needed something — a pencil to borrow, or favors that never returned. Tammy, her “so-called” closest friend, who was busy with her speech competition, smiled only when she needed answers for a test or help with her homework. Day after day, she moved through the halls like a ghost, unheard and unseen. Slowly, she began to believe her thoughts weren’t good enough to be heard. So she continued to stay quiet and almost mute. This pushed Alma closer to the edge. Her parents grew increasingly worried about her, for they feared she would never make friends. Her parents tried everything they could to help her fit in. However, it still didn’t work. Night after night, she cried herself to sleep and was convinced that no one would ever truly care for her and love her enough to be her real friend. As that semester was coming to an end, Alma decided to take one last chance. With trembling hands, she signed up for the Speech Club, though she expected nothing. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 One afternoon, a card on her desk caught her eyes. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, Alma’s world began to change. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: One afternoon, a card on her desk caught her eyes. With curiosity, she opened it, surprisingly finding that it was the card from Tammy, which noted, “Hi, Alma! I’m terribly sorry for not caring about you due to my speech competition preparation. I’m happy to know that you signed up for the Speech Club. Let’s embark on a journey of speech exploration together! Your forever friend!” These words pierced straight into her soul. For the first time, she realized someone actually cared for her. Holding the handmade card with a blooming sunflower painted on the front, Alma felt deeply moved, excited and happy tears welling up. From that day on, Alma’s world began to change. She began to feel hopeful about her new school life. In the Speech Club, Tammy helped her a lot, they devoted themselves to improving their speech skills. Alma volunteered to help the classmates in need, never asking for anything in return, her caring as well as kind-hearted qualities won her many friends. Most importantly, the “cold, unfriendly, and indifferent” school faded into memory. Instead, she discovered a warm and familiar school—one where she was truly seen and heard. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Alma在新学校孤独无助，渴望友谊却难以开口，最终在学期末鼓起勇气加入演讲俱乐部的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天下午，她桌上的一张卡片吸引了她的目光。”可知，第一段可描写Alma收到卡片后，发现是Tammy的道歉，她深受感动，意识到有人在乎她。 ②由第二段首句内容“从那天起，Alma的世界开始改变。”可知，第二段可描写Alma开始对学校生活充满希望，在演讲俱乐部得到Tammy的帮助，结交了许多朋友，发现了温暖熟悉的学校。 2.续写线索：收到卡片——深受感动——开始改变——得到帮助——结交朋友——发现温暖 3.词汇激活： 行为类 ①注册：sign up for/register ②帮助：help/assist ③提升：improve/enhance 情绪类 ①高兴的：happy/delighted/pleased ②感动的：moved/touched 【点睛】【高分句型1】I’m happy to know that you sighed up for the Speech Club.(运用了that引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】Instead, she discovered a warm and familiar school—one where she was truly seen and heard.(运用了where引导的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
