culture而选项B(练习新闻摄影技 能)是她大学时已具备的技能，并非为该项目专门做的准备。 26.C。文中提到Moy面临高原反应、当地食物导致的肠胃问题，以及暴雨引发滑坡时需前 往灾区分发物资等挑战(challenging);同时她表示“I'm grateful for the opportunity.. proud of the work”,体现出工作的意义(meaningful)。

disease'”可知，科学研究的目的是探究这些动物的生理特性应用于医疗的可能性。 3l.C。由第七段中“because they have serious health problems”可知，兽医如此建议的原因是 面部扁平的犬种有严重的健康问题，即有生理局限性。 D 【答案】32.D33.A34.C35.A 【解析】 32.D。文章第二段明确指出了水泥的问题：“However,it can

buildings,more testing is needed" 35.A。最后两段主要讲在实际应用中面临的挑战（如有毒副产品和法规问题）。 第二节七选五 【答案】36.B37.F38.D39.G40.E (解析】 36.B。空格前提到“树在世界上扮演重要角色”，空格后提到“树为动物提供家园和食物”。 B选项(Physically,trees produce oxygen.)从“物理层面”说明树的作用（制造氧气），与 后文“提供家园和食物”形成递进关系，符合逻辑。 37.F。前文提到“树提供放松的场所”，后文引用生态学家的话，说明树让人更“mindful' (专注、觉察)。F选项(On a deeper level,trees help us feel better..)中的“deeper level'"与 前文“物理作用”形成对比，并引出后文的“mindful”概念，衔接自然。 38.D。前文提到“许多文化有神圣森林”，后文引用诗人Joyce Kilmer的诗和画家Piet Mondrian的例子。D选项(Writers,painters and other artists..)直接对应后文的“诗人”和 “画家”，是完美的过渡句。 39.G。前文提到“古树是社区共同记忆的一部分”，后文提到“古树承载文化”。 G选项(Many people remember a tree from their childhood..)用“童年记忆中的树”具体说 明“共同记忆”，与后文“文化承载”形成递进。E选项(They have lived for hundreds..)虽 然提到古树，但更强调“历史变迁”，与“记忆”衔接稍弱。 40.E。前文提到“古树承载文化”，后文举例“北京古柏树的故事”。 E选项(They have lived for hundreds..)强调古树的“悠久历史”，与后文“历史见证者”直 接对应，是最佳选择。C选项(To better protect trees..)提到“保护古树的法规”，与上下 文无关，排除。 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考参考答案与评分标准（英语）第2页（共7页）》 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 【答案】41一45 CABCD46-50 BAACD51-55 CBDAB 【解析】 41.C。gathered根据上下文“Each evening,my dad and I.around the dining table”,意思是 “每天晚上，我和爸爸围坐在餐桌旁”。 42.A。instruction乐高套装里用来指导拼搭的说明书，固定表达就是“instruction booklet'”或 "instruction manual" 43.B。took shape短语“take shape”意为“成形，初具雏形”。句子“As the building..”表示“随 着建筑…”，后面接着说“we felt our efforts paying off(我们感到努力有了回报)”，所 以填入“成形”最合理。A.mount up(增长，积累)、C.broke down(崩溃，出故障)、D. took place(发生)都不符合“努力有回报”的积极语境。 44.C。if详解：这是全文的核心比喻。下文紧接着就开始详细讨论乐高说明书和人生的相 似与不同之处。并且后文多次出现“life”进行对比（如“Life,however,rarely offers such instructions'”)o 45.D。detailed空格处与“clear(清晰)”由“and”连接，是并列关系，共同描述说明书的特点。 并且，乐高说明书以其步骤详尽、清晰明了著称。 46.B。provided句意为“它为我们提供了确定性的安慰”。“provide sb.with sth.”是固定 搭配。 47.A。end up with句意为“如果我们遵循说明，我们就会最终得到一个和图片一模一样的模 型”。A.end up with(以…结束，最终得到)符合句意。B.come up with(想出，提出)、 C.catch up with(赶上)、D.break up with(与…分手)。 48.A。mistake下一句说“we had to retrace our steps and start again(我们必须回溯步骤重新开 始)”，导致这个结果的原因只能是“犯了一个错误”。 49.C。however上文详细描述了乐高说明书提供的“确定性的安慰”，此句开头说“人生… 很少提供这样的说明书”，前后文意发生了明显的转折。因此需要填入一个表示转折的 逻辑连接词。C.however(然而)正确。 50.D。architect此题需要结合首句和主题。文章第一句就提到“my dad's love for architecture (我爸爸对建筑的热爱)”，他们拼的也是建筑模型（泰姬陵）。此处“Here,we were the. doing the assembling(在这里，我们是进行组装的…)”是将自己比作“建筑师”。 5l.C。beyond短语“beyond one's control'”意为“超出某人的控制范围，无法控制的”，是固定 搭配。句意为“我们的选择常常被…我们控制的力量所塑造”。 52.B。proceed面对不确定性(Facing uncertainty),我们不能停止，而是要“继续前进”。B. proceed(继续进行，向前进)最符合语境。A.stop(停止)、C.quit(放弃)、D.leave(离 开)都是消极应对，与下文“trusting both in the process and the end result(相信过程和最终 结果)”的积极态度相矛盾。 53.D。reminds句意为“现已完成的乐高模型…我，人生是慢慢搭建起来的”。“remind sb. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考参考答案与评分标准（英语）第3页（共7页） that..”是固定句型，意为“提醒某人.”。 54.A。uncertainty此处与“mistakes'”和“no instruction book”并列，都是人生与乐高模型相比 所缺少的“确定性”和“指导”，因此都是构建人生过程中的挑战和特点uncertainty(不确定 性)完美呼应了前文“Facing uncertainty”的主题。 55.B。lies表示“（价值、问题等）在于…”的固定短语是“1iein”。句意为“人生的价值不在于 我们物质上创造或留下了什么，而在于我们如何度过它”。 第二节 【答案】56.introducing 57.with 58.hosted 59.drew 60.an 61.successfully 62.various 63.that/which 64.countries 65.our 【解析】 56.introducing句中已有谓语动词“were busy”,此处需用非谓语动词。主语“Wenny and her classmates”与“introduce”是主动关系，故用现在分词作伴随状语。 57.with experiment with用…做实验。 58.hosted“International Cultural Festival'”与“host”是被动关系（节日被举办），故用过去分 词作后置定语。 59.drew全文主体时态为一般过去时（如“were busy'”“said”等），此处描述festival过去的 情况，故用“draw”的过去式“drew”。 60.an“opportunity”是可数名词单数，此处表泛指“一个极好的机会”；“excellent”以元音 音素开头，故用不定冠词“an”。 61.successfully修饰动词“held”需用副词形式。 2.various用形容词修饰名词activities。 63.that/which此处为定语从句，先行词是“platform” 64.countries此处表示“拥有来自近l00个国家的学生”，用复数。 65.our 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 【参考范文】 The annual poetry festival,under the theme "Find Your Voice in Poetry,was successfully held in our school auditorium last Friday afternoon. The event featured diverse activities including poetry recitation,creative writing workshops, and group interpretation sessions.Students enthusiastically shared their original works and performed classic poems with deep emotion. The festival received overwhelming positive feedback.Participants described it as"an inspiring experience that deepened our appreciation for poetic beauty."This event not only enriched our campus culture but also provided a valuable platform for students to express themselves through the art of poetry. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考参考答案与评分标准（英语）第4页（共7页）》 第二节 【参考范文】 The moment the gentleman left,Mr.Rose rushed out to search for his son.His mind filled with worry about Charles'safety,he finally reached the small hut.Mr.Rose was about to push the door open when a soft murmur from inside made him pause.Curious,he leaned gently against the window and peeked in.There Charles bent over the table,holding a piece of chalk to guide Joe's hand as they traced letters together with Joe's eyes sparkling with excitement.Mr.Rose's heart softened instantly-his son was using the hour to give warmth to those in need.He knocked softly, and when Charles turned around,he smiled and said"It's time to go home,but we can come back tomorrow.” The following day,Mr.Rose took Charles to a bookstore in the town.He picked out two new primer books-one for Charles,and the other for Joe-and even bought a small box of chalk. "Let's make sure you both have the tools to learn well."Mr.Rose said,patting Charles'shoulder, "Every child deserves a chance to read and write."From that day on,Charles'morning lessons included Joe-they sat side by side at Mr.Rose's table,turning pages and practicing words together.Charles still had his "free hour",but now it was filled with laughter as he and Joe reviewed what they'd learned,making that small corner of the country a place of hope and friendship. 听力原文 Text1骑车上学 W:Mike,isn't your dad driving you to school today?

B Moya Crokett has just wrapped up her volunteer service with the United Nations World Food Program (WFP)in Bolivia,a country in South America. In May 2024,Moya first spotted a UN Volunteers recruitment()notice and applied without hesitation."I've always been passionate about volunteering and making a difference,"she explained-a drive evident throughout her university years,when she spent three years on a public welfare committee. Even with her rich experience,landing the UN role wasn't easy.Moya studied the UN's mission,taught herself basic Spanish and learned about Bolivia's history,environment and culture. Her hard work paid off,and she was finally accepted. Upon arriving in La Paz,Bolivia,the world's highest capital city,Moya struggled with altitude sickness(高原反应)and stomach issues from the local food.But she adjusted fast..When heavy rainfall triggered()landslides,as a WFP resource mobilization assistant,she rushed to the disaster zone to help distribute relief supplies,ensuring families got food and other essential aids.She also used her photojournalism skills from university to film interviews for WFP's social media. Besides the volunteer work,cultural exchange was an important part of Moya's experience in Bolivia.She shared Canadian food with locals and fellow volunteers.On Intemational Volunteer Day 2024,Moya and her peers talked about the responsibilities and challenges of their work. "Despite different nationalities,we are all united by a shared belief:the desire to help and serve others.”she noted. Through her experience in Bolivia,Moya realized that volunteering needs strong belief and commitment."I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve this welcoming country so young,and I'm proud of the work,"she said.Her journey to this less-developed country showcased her courage, faith and independence. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考试题卷（英语）第4页（共10页） 24.What motivated Moya to apply for the UN Volunteers Program?

Every June in Petaluma,California,judges examine a lineup of funny faces,crooked teeth, big eyes and messy whiskers()to decide the winner of the World's Ugliest Dog contest.The dogs competing for this questionable title often melt the hearts of animal lovers everywhere.Funny- looking pets are also common in viral internet content. So why do we find odd-looking animals so appealing? Evolution plays a role.According to Austrian zoologist Konrad Lorenz,human attraction to baby-like features,such as big eyes,large heads and soft bodies,is an evolutionary adaptation that helps ensure that adults care for their offspring,guaranteeing the survival of their species.These features were coined"baby schema"by Lorenz in 1943. Animals such as blobfish,pugs ()and bulldogs all share these baby-like features that cause a caring response from humans.They trigger a natural instinct to nurture and protect. There are other reasons we like"ugly-cute"animals.Some,like the blobfish or naked mole rat,live in extreme environments.Scientists study these animals to understand if their biology might provide insights that could lead to treatments for human health issues like cancer and heart disease. But there are concems with this trend.Vets urge people not to choose flat-faced dogs because they have serious health problems.Pugs and French bulldogs are bred to have short noses and often experience trouble breathing,skin infections and eye issues.Many pugs make snoring and wheezing noises due to their blocked airways. So while silly features such as big eyes and wrinkly faces may make us smile,we might want to rethink our love of“ugly-cute”pets. 28.According to the text,what event takes place every June in Petaluma,Califomnia? A.A conference on animal evolution. B.A competition for the "World's Ugliest Dog. C.A health check-up event for flat-faced dogs. D.A study on viral internet pet content. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考试题卷（英语）第5页（共10页） 29.What do we know about'“baby schema”? A.It refers to baby animals'behavior. B.It ensures humans care for pets.

Normally,people use cement()to build houses.However,it can harm the environment. Chatham House,a think tank,reported that more than 4.4 billion tons of cement produced every year are responsible for about 8 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO2)emissions. The research team added special bacteria to fungal mycelium(菌丝体)，which connects fungal networks underground like roots.The bacteria create calcium carbonate(),the substance in eggshells,making the soft mycelium hard and strong.This process,called biomineralization( 矿化)，uses tiny,living things to grow building materials. While other biomineralized building materials typically last only a few days or weeks,this new material stays strong for at least a month.This might be because,while the bacteria made the mycelium hard,the structure it forms also makes the bacteria stronger.When bacteria live within a material for longer,they can do cool things like fixing themselves when damaged and cleaning up pollution,said the UK Institution of Mechanical Engineers. However,before using the new material for homes or other buildings,more testing is needed, Avinash Manjula from Northeastern University in the US told CNN.He mentioned that small experiments don't reflect the real strength of the material."I think in the future,they could be useful for single-story buildings,these smaller structures-it's very much feasible."he said. Another study shows that biomineralization has already been widely applied in many fields, including repairing ancient buildings and making solid stable. While looking promising in labs,it faces significant challenges in real-world applications. Releasing these microbes into the environment could harm nature or people,as there are toxic byproducts(有毒的副产品)that need careful management. Different places have their own rules,making it tough to use these technologies everywhere. Moreover,construction biotechnology needs experts from diverse fields,such as biology, engineering and materials science,to work together but they often operate independently. 32.What is the problem with using cement to build houses according to the passage? A.It's not strong enough. B.It consumes too much energy C.It's too expensive. D.It's bad for the environment. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考试题卷（英语）第6页（共10页） 33.What does the underlined word"feasible"in paragraph 5 mean? A.achievable B.affordable C.impossible D.comfortable 34.What can be inferred about the current stage of the new fungal building material? A.It will soon replace cement in large-scale construction. B.It is already widely used in repairing ancient structures. C.They require further real-world testing before practical application. D.It produces no toxic byproducts during production. 35.What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about? A.The challenges of using biomineralized materials B.The future of biomineralized materials. C.The wide application of biomineralization. D.The harmful effects of construction biotechnology. 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。 What would the world be like without trees?It's hard to imagine,since trees are an important part of the living world. A tree,whether old or young,plays an important role in our world.36.They also provide homes and food for animals.We use trees to make paper,furniture and musical instruments.Trees also give us peaceful places to relax. 37.US ecologist Nalini Nadkarni says that trees help us become more "mindful",so we notice more and care more about the world around us.This may be why many cultures have sacred()forests.38.US poet Joyce Kilmer wrote in his poem Tree:"I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.Dutch artist Piet Mondrian was interested in the shapes of tree branches and painted many trees to show their beauty. Old trees are also important because they are part of a community's shared memory.39 They are silent keepers of our most cherished moments:first kisses,a father's push on a swing,or a grandparent's stories shared in its shade. Ancient trees also carry culture.40.Ma Yuanxin,who works at a research institute focusing on garden and ancient architectural design,told Guangming Daily that ancient trees can be turned from "silent witnesses of history"into "narrators of culture".For example,Beijing is home to many ancient cypress trees,and each one has its own story. A.Trees play an important role in ecosystems and human life B.Physically,trees produce oxygen,which humans and animals need to survive. C.To better protect trees,China has introduced its first national-level regulation to protect ancient and notable trees. D.Writers,painters and other artists often get ideas from trees. E.They have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years and have seen many changes in history. F.On a deeper level,trees help us feel better and give us ideas. G.Many people remember a tree from their childhood that brings back warm memories of their hometown. 2025年9月邵阳市高二拔尖创新班联考试题卷（英语）第7页（共10页） 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。 Years ago,we gifted my dad a Lego (Taj Mahal set,hoping to combine his love for architecture with family time Each evening,my dad and I 41. around the dining table,working to assemble countless tiny pieces using a thick 42. booklet.

Mr.Rose told his son that once his morning lessons were finished,he might amuse himself for one hour as he pleased. Not far from their home flowed a river,beside which stood a hut of a poor fisherman.The man supported his family by selling fish,while his wife worked tirelessly at her spinning wheel from dawn until dusk.They both worked very hard to make ends meet,yet they were deeply concerned that their only son would never leamn to read and write.They could not teach him themselves,and they were too poor to send him to school. One afternoon,Charles called at the fisherman's hut to inquire about his missing dog.There he found the little boy,Joe,seated by the table,intently crawling marks with a piece of chalk. Charles asked him whether he was drawing pictures. "No."replied Joe,"I am trying to write,but I know only two words.Those I saw upon a sign and I am trying to write them. "If I could only learn to read and write,he continued with a sigh,"I would be the happiest boy in the world..” "Then I will make you happy,"Charles declared,"I may be young,but I can teach you that. My father allows me one hour each day to do as I wish.If you are willing to lear,you will soon know how to read and write." Both Joe and his mother were on the verge of kneeling down to thank Charles.They told him this was what they desired more than anything else. So,the next day when the hour came,he put his book in his pocket,and went to teach Joe. Joe learned very fast,and Charles soon began to teach him how to write. Sometime after,a gentleman called on Mr.Rose,and said,"Charles didn't always amuse himself.I often see him go to the house of the fisherman.I fear he goes out in their boat." 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。 The moment the gentleman left,Mr.Rose rushed out to search for his son.
