I paused to take a few careful sips of water — only enough to moisten my tongue, since the bottle was already half-empty — and weigh my options. The shade from the trees did little to ease the burning sun as I struggled to make sense of the maps. The original plan was to stay overnight at a tourist park near Logue Brook Dam, where I could finally reach my wife, but right then, I didn’t have the faintest idea where I was. Wearily, I pushed myself upright, remounted my bike and started to double back in the hope of spotting clear trail markers, but this only made things worse: the trees seemed to press in around me as I desperately scanned for landmarks — and the cicadas (蝉) had erupted into a deafening chorus. After cycling slowly along the sandy trail for about two hours, I was delighted to see seemingly recent cycle tracks. Encouraged, I moved on, keeping a sharp eye on the tracks. However, I soon realised that they were my own. I was covering the same ground. Discouraged, I lay my bike aside, and sank down under a tree with a heavy sigh. I had no more water, and my tongue felt swollen. I felt sleepy as groups of flies settled on me in a vain attempt to find dampness. A sudden warm breeze stirred me. I opened my eyes, caught the distant hum of an engine, and glanced weakly upward, yet the sound faded away. After a short while, I heard it once more, but this time it seemed nearer. I dragged my feet and marched toward the source of the sound. When I made it to the top of the hill, I gasped in utter disbelief. There in front of me lay Logue Brook Dam, with boats pulling water skiers and folks sunbathing out in the open. I went back to my bicycle, pushed it up the hill, and let it coast into the lovely cool waters of the dam, where I rolled around wearing my full cycling gear. 4. What can be inferred about the 1st paragraph? A. The author desperately contacted his wife at the tourist park. B. The author found the trail markers easily after doubling back. C. The author felt confused and helpless in the current environment. D. The cicadas’ noise was so loud that the author couldn’t find landmarks. 5. When did the author realize he was cycling in circles? A. When trail markers disappeared. B. When he recognized his own bike tracks. C. When the loud cicada noises disturbed him. D. When he noticed the change in sandy trail conditions. 6. Why were the flies mentioned? A. To show he was awed at the abundant wildlife. B. To describe the surroundings were becoming tougher. C. To illustrate his physical discomfort was intensifying. D. To inform he unconsciously entered a dangerous zone. 7. What happened to the author in the end? A. He deserted his bike near the coast. B. He failed to locate the dam and gave up. C. He pushed his bike and rolled about the dam. D. He had the bike freewheel downhill and had fun. C As more and more reptilian (爬行类的) species are threatened by habitat loss, scientists and conservationists say that recognizing reptiles’ capacity for emotion can help pet owners and policymakers alike take better care of them. When you hear the words “reptilian” or “cold-blooded”, the first thing that comes to mind might be an uncaring boss. That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. But scientists agree that they’re misunderstood. This misbelief largely arises from the concept of the “reptilian brain”. The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (直觉). According to this misconception,the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental “reptilian brain”, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. Some researchers long believed that without human like brain structures, reptiles didn’t have the capacity for emotions at all. Still, scientists have consistently disproven this theory. One study found that handling lizards caused an increase in their heart rate, indicating an emotional response. Another found that redfooted tortoises exhibited anxiety-like behavior when placed in a new environment. Even as research continues to build, the stereotypes (刻板印象) around reptilian emotions remain. Some research has revealed part of the reason. In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. Our tendency to dismiss reptiles isn’t just psychological — it’s impacted the level of habitat protections they’re afforded. Apodaca,a conservationist from Amphibian and Reptile Conservancy,says he’s noticed gaps in species recovery funding for reptiles vs. mammals, birds, and fish.However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. 8. What is a common misunderstanding about the reptile? A. They are threatened by habitat loss. B. They are well attended by pet owners. C. They are emotionally cold-blooded. D. They are associated with uncaring people. 9. Which behaviour is managed by the “reptilian brain”? A. Jumping at a sudden noise. B. Recalling a childhood memory. C. Drawing a complicated mind-map. D. Feeling anxious in a new environment. 10. What is a cause for the stereotypes about reptiles? A. They tend to release harmful chemicals. B. They seldom interact within their species. C. They show emotions differently than humans. D. They have frightening physical characteristics. 11. What is Apodaca’s attitude to the present reptile protection? A. Hopeful. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. D Regardless of how famous they are, and despite the star treatment they receive, many celebrities make it a point to give back to charities. Some have even set up their own private foundations. Their widely publicised visits to troubled areas of the world help to raise awareness of issues such as famine and poverty. According to Jane Cooper of Unicef UK, celebrities have a unique ability to reach huge numbers of people, many of whom might not otherwise be engaged in charitable causes. She pointed out that famous faces had played a significant role in raising funds in recent years, and their energies had produced tangible results, such as enabling millions of children in poorer countries to attend school. But in spite of these successes, there is evidence to suggest that celebrity endorsement (代言) may be overrated. In a survey of members of the public to find out if celebrity involvement would encourage people to donate, researchers found that the impact was not as great as previously thought. When shown a list of well-known organisations and famous people who represent them, over half of respondents were unable to match the celebrity with the cause. What’s more, three quarters claimed that they didn’t respond to celebrity endorsement in any way. The survey also showed that a few names did stand out as being associated with particular charities. But the presence of a celebrity in a campaign, was not a significant factor when it came to a decision to donate time or money. Instead, the majority of people contribute because of personal connections in their lives and families which make a charity important to them. In another study aimed at young people, most participants cited a compelling (无法抗拒的) mission as their main motivation to give. The second most important drive was if a friend or peer recommended supporting a particular cause. Only two percent of respondents said they were motivated by celebrity endorsement. This seems to contradict the general assumption that teenagers are particularly influenced by famous people. One possible explanation is that there is a general fatigue (疲倦) with celebrity culture. There is also a suspicion that the stars are the ones who benefit most when they offer to do charity work. Some critiques have accused that celebrities might actually take attention away from issues by attracting more attention than the causes they represent. So taking all these issues into account, is it time for charities to rethink their campaign strategies and look for alternative ways to reach new audiences? Whichever point of view you favour, there seems to be opportunities for more research into how charity campaigns might develop relationships with celebrities to maximise their potential. This in turn will open up more engagement, and better targeted campaigns — which can only benefit those who really matter — the people and animals that are in need of assistance. 12. What does the underlined word “tangible” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Controversial. B. Celebrated. C. Definite. D. Temporarily. 13. Which of the following statements is correct according to Paragraph 2? A. Celebrity involvement is key to motivating people to donate. B. All people are not influenced by celebrities in charity donations. C. Most people contribute to charities because they are inspired by the family. D None of the people believe celebrities make any difference to their donation. 14. The 3rd paragraph is mainly about ________. A. how young people react to celebrity culture B. who is to blame for taking attention away from charities C. what mainly motivates young people to be engaged in charitable giving D. why young people are rarely influenced by celebrities in charity donations 15. What is the author’s attitude towards celebrity doing charities? A. Objective. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Unclear. 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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When your Home Becomes a Tourist Attraction Have you ever looked at a beautiful little new house in London and thought “It must be so amazing to live there”? ____16____ But for the people who actually do live in those homes, social media photography has changed what it means to live in a pictures que place.

I expected to see drawings of turkeys and pumpkin pictures, symbols of the holiday they might enjoy. Most of the children did draw exactly that — scenes of feasts and family gatherings. Bright colors filled their pages, showing smiling families around dinner tables laden with food. But among this festive atmosphere, there was Lucas, a quiet and sad boy who often stayed by my side while others played at recess (大课间). Lucas was different from the other children. His eyes, always filled with a sadness I could only guess at, seemed to carry the weight of the world. I often found him standing close to me during recess, his small hand sometimes slipping into mine as we watched the other children play. “Take my hand, Lucas, we’ll go outside,” I’d say gently, and he’d follow, his trust obvious in his grip (紧握). When it was Lucas’s turn to share his drawing, he held up his paper, showing a big hand. Just a hand, with nothing else around it. The simplicity of it stirred the imagination of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, explaining that farmers raise turkeys and provide food. Another suggested it was the hand of a police officer, symbolizing protection and care. The discussion went on and on, each child offering a different interpretation (解读). As the children moved on to other assignments, the image of the hand remained in my mind. I couldn’t help but feel there was something more to Lucas’s drawing, something deeper and more personal. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 I approached his desk, my heart heavy with curiosity and concern. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, I made sure to stay close to Lucas, lending a hand whenever possible. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025年秋学期金坛一中高三年级英语学科9月阶段性调研试卷 检测用时：120分钟 本卷满分：150分 命题人：周卫琴 审核人：张云霞 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.

I paused to take a few careful sips of water — only enough to moisten my tongue, since the bottle was already half-empty — and weigh my options. The shade from the trees did little to ease the burning sun as I struggled to make sense of the maps. The original plan was to stay overnight at a tourist park near Logue Brook Dam, where I could finally reach my wife, but right then, I didn’t have the faintest idea where I was. Wearily, I pushed myself upright, remounted my bike and started to double back in the hope of spotting clear trail markers, but this only made things worse: the trees seemed to press in around me as I desperately scanned for landmarks — and the cicadas (蝉) had erupted into a deafening chorus. After cycling slowly along the sandy trail for about two hours, I was delighted to see seemingly recent cycle tracks. Encouraged, I moved on, keeping a sharp eye on the tracks. However, I soon realised that they were my own. I was covering the same ground. Discouraged, I lay my bike aside, and sank down under a tree with a heavy sigh. I had no more water, and my tongue felt swollen. I felt sleepy as groups of flies settled on me in a vain attempt to find dampness. A sudden warm breeze stirred me. I opened my eyes, caught the distant hum of an engine, and glanced weakly upward, yet the sound faded away. After a short while, I heard it once more, but this time it seemed nearer. I dragged my feet and marched toward the source of the sound. When I made it to the top of the hill, I gasped in utter disbelief. There in front of me lay Logue Brook Dam, with boats pulling water skiers and folks sunbathing out in the open. I went back to my bicycle, pushed it up the hill, and let it coast into the lovely cool waters of the dam, where I rolled around wearing my full cycling gear. 4. What can be inferred about the 1st paragraph? A. The author desperately contacted his wife at the tourist park. B. The author found the trail markers easily after doubling back. C. The author felt confused and helpless in the current environment. D. The cicadas’ noise was so loud that the author couldn’t find landmarks. 5. When did the author realize he was cycling in circles? A. When trail markers disappeared. B. When he recognized his own bike tracks. C. When the loud cicada noises disturbed him. D. When he noticed the change in sandy trail conditions. 6. Why were the flies mentioned? A. To show he was awed at the abundant wildlife. B. To describe the surroundings were becoming tougher. C. To illustrate his physical discomfort was intensifying. D. To inform he unconsciously entered a dangerous zone. 7. What happened to the author in the end? A. He deserted his bike near the coast. B. He failed to locate the dam and gave up. C. He pushed his bike and rolled about the dam. D. He had the bike freewheel downhill and had fun. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者骑行时迷路，缺水困顿，发现自己在绕圈，后循引擎声找到Logue Brook Dam，推自行车入坝，在水中翻滚。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The original plan was to stay overnight at a tourist park near Logue Brook Dam, where I could finally reach my wife, but right then, I didn’t have the faintest idea where I was. Wearily, I pushed myself upright, remounted my bike and started to double back in the hope of spotting clear trail markers, but this only made things worse: the trees seemed to press in around me as I desperately scanned for landmarks — and the cicadas (蝉) had erupted into a deafening chorus.(最初的计划是先在洛格伯克大坝附近的旅游公园过夜，这样我就能联系到我的妻子了。但就在那时，我完全不知道自己身处何地。疲惫不堪的我勉强坐直身子，重新骑上自行车，开始往回走，希望能看到清晰的路标指引，但结果却更糟糕了：当我拼命寻找地标时，树木似乎向我逼来；而蝉儿也齐声鸣叫起来，震耳欲聋)”可知，作者在当前的环境中感到困惑和无助。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, I soon realised that they were my own. I was covering the same ground.(然而，我很快便意识到，它们其实是属于我的。我所走的路与它们是一样的)”可知，作者通过自己的自行车留下的痕迹意识到自己在原地打转。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Discouraged, I lay my bike aside, and sank down under a tree with a heavy sigh. I had no more water, and my tongue felt swollen. I felt sleepy as groups of flies settled on me in a vain attempt to find dampness.(沮丧不已，我把自行车放在一旁，然后重重地叹了口气，瘫坐在一棵树下。我已经没有水了，舌头也肿了起来。我感到十分困倦，一群群苍蝇落在我的身上，试图寻找潮湿的地方，但它们的努力却是徒劳的)”可知，提及这些苍蝇是为了表明他的身体不适感正在加剧。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“I went back to my bicycle, pushed it up the hill, and let it coast into the lovely cool waters of the dam, where I rolled around wearing my full cycling gear.(我回到自行车旁，推着它爬上山坡，然后让它自然滑行进到那座大坝旁清凉宜人的水里。我穿着全套骑行装备在里面尽情地翻滚嬉戏)”可知，这位作者最后推着自行车，在大坝上来回滑行。故选C。 C As more and more reptilian (爬行类的) species are threatened by habitat loss, scientists and conservationists say that recognizing reptiles’ capacity for emotion can help pet owners and policymakers alike take better care of them. When you hear the words “reptilian” or “cold-blooded”, the first thing that comes to mind might be an uncaring boss. That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. But scientists agree that they’re misunderstood. This misbelief largely arises from the concept of the “reptilian brain”. The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (直觉). According to this misconception,the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental “reptilian brain”, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. Some researchers long believed that without human like brain structures, reptiles didn’t have the capacity for emotions at all. Still, scientists have consistently disproven this theory. One study found that handling lizards caused an increase in their heart rate, indicating an emotional response. Another found that redfooted tortoises exhibited anxiety-like behavior when placed in a new environment. Even as research continues to build, the stereotypes (刻板印象) around reptilian emotions remain. Some research has revealed part of the reason. In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. Our tendency to dismiss reptiles isn’t just psychological — it’s impacted the level of habitat protections they’re afforded. Apodaca,a conservationist from Amphibian and Reptile Conservancy,says he’s noticed gaps in species recovery funding for reptiles vs. mammals, birds, and fish.However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. 8. What is a common misunderstanding about the reptile? A. They are threatened by habitat loss. B. They are well attended by pet owners. C. They are emotionally cold-blooded. D. They are associated with uncaring people. 9. Which behaviour is managed by the “reptilian brain”? A. Jumping at a sudden noise. B. Recalling a childhood memory. C. Drawing a complicated mind-map. D. Feeling anxious in a new environment. 10. What is a cause for the stereotypes about reptiles? A. They tend to release harmful chemicals. B. They seldom interact within their species. C. They show emotions differently than humans. D. They have frightening physical characteristics. 11. What is Apodaca’s attitude to the present reptile protection? A. Hopeful. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了爬行动物被误解为“冷血无情”，科学家通过研究证明它们也有情感，并呼吁加强对爬行动物的保护与理解。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. (这是因为几十年来，爬行动物一直被描述为冷漠、没有感情的生物)”可知，人们对爬行动物的一个普遍误解是认为它们在情感上是冷漠的，没有感情的。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (直觉). (这个术语指的是我们用于生存本能的大脑部分)”以及“According to this misconception,the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental ‘reptilian brain’, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. (根据这种误解，随着时间的推移，人类大脑通过在这个基本的‘爬行动物大脑’上逐渐增加更复杂的结构而进化，包括边缘系统，这是我们情绪的来源)”可知，“爬行动物大脑”管理的是人类的生存本能，选项A“Jumping at a sudden noise. (对突然的噪音做出反应)”属于生存本能反应，是由“爬行动物大脑”管理的行为。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. (2021年，研究人员发现蜥蜴会释放化学物质来相互交流，这意味着它们比哺乳动物更难理解。人类更有可能对与我们具有相似身体和情感特征的动物表现出同情，这就是为什么许多人可能对狗和猫比对海龟有更深入的了解)”可推知，人们对爬行动物的刻板印象部分源于它们表达情感的方式与人类不同。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. (然而，他也注意到人们对爬行动物保护需求的认识有了巨大提高——这一发展可能对未来几年打击栖息地丧失至关重要)”可知，Apodaca注意到了人们对爬行动物保护需求的认识有了巨大提高，这表明他对未来爬行动物保护的前景持乐观态度，看到了希望。故选A。 D Regardless of how famous they are, and despite the star treatment they receive, many celebrities make it a point to give back to charities. Some have even set up their own private foundations. Their widely publicised visits to troubled areas of the world help to raise awareness of issues such as famine and poverty. According to Jane Cooper of Unicef UK, celebrities have a unique ability to reach huge numbers of people, many of whom might not otherwise be engaged in charitable causes. She pointed out that famous faces had played a significant role in raising funds in recent years, and their energies had produced tangible results, such as enabling millions of children in poorer countries to attend school. But in spite of these successes, there is evidence to suggest that celebrity endorsement (代言) may be overrated. In a survey of members of the public to find out if celebrity involvement would encourage people to donate, researchers found that the impact was not as great as previously thought. When shown a list of well-known organisations and famous people who represent them, over half of respondents were unable to match the celebrity with the cause. What’s more, three quarters claimed that they didn’t respond to celebrity endorsement in any way. The survey also showed that a few names did stand out as being associated with particular charities. But the presence of a celebrity in a campaign, was not a significant factor when it came to a decision to donate time or money. Instead, the majority of people contribute because of personal connections in their lives and families which make a charity important to them. In another study aimed at young people, most participants cited a compelling (无法抗拒的) mission as their main motivation to give. The second most important drive was if a friend or peer recommended supporting a particular cause. Only two percent of respondents said they were motivated by celebrity endorsement. This seems to contradict the general assumption that teenagers are particularly influenced by famous people. One possible explanation is that there is a general fatigue (疲倦) with celebrity culture. There is also a suspicion that the stars are the ones who benefit most when they offer to do charity work. Some critiques have accused that celebrities might actually take attention away from issues by attracting more attention than the causes they represent. So taking all these issues into account, is it time for charities to rethink their campaign strategies and look for alternative ways to reach new audiences? Whichever point of view you favour, there seems to be opportunities for more research into how charity campaigns might develop relationships with celebrities to maximise their potential. This in turn will open up more engagement, and better targeted campaigns — which can only benefit those who really matter — the people and animals that are in need of assistance. 12. What does the underlined word “tangible” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Controversial. B. Celebrated. C. Definite. D. Temporarily. 13. Which of the following statements is correct according to Paragraph 2? A. Celebrity involvement is key to motivating people to donate. B. All people are not influenced by celebrities in charity donations. C. Most people contribute to charities because they are inspired by the family. D. None of the people believe celebrities make any difference to their donation. 14. The 3rd paragraph is mainly about ________. A. how young people react to celebrity culture B. who is to blame for taking attention away from charities C. what mainly motivates young people to be engaged in charitable giving D. why young people are rarely influenced by celebrities in charity donations 15. What is the author’s attitude towards celebrity doing charities? A. Objective. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Unclear. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章探讨名人参与慈善的情况，既提及其在筹款等方面的作用，也指出其影响被高估，还分析相关研究，最后建议优化合作策略。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“such as enabling millions of children in poorer countries to attend school(例如，能让贫困国家的数百万儿童能够上学)”可知，“让儿童上学”是具体、明确的成果，故划线词意思是“明确的”。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But in spite of these successes, there is evidence to suggest that celebrity endorsement (代言) may be overrated. In a survey of members of the public to find out if celebrity involvement would encourage people to donate, researchers found that the impact was not as great as previously thought. When shown a list of well- known organisations and famous people who represent them, over half of respondents were unable to match the celebrity with the cause. What’s more, three quarters claimed that they didn’t respond to celebrity endorsement in any way.(尽管取得了这些成功，但仍有证据表明名人代言可能被高估了。在一项针对公众的调查中，旨在了解名人参与是否能鼓励人们捐款，研究人员发现其影响并不像之前认为的那样大。当向受访者展示一系列知名组织以及代表这些组织的著名人物名单时，超过一半的受访者无法将名人与相关事业匹配起来。此外，四分之三的人表示他们不会以任何方式对名人代言做出反应)”可知，四分之三的人表示不会因名人代言而改变捐赠行为，说明并非所有人都会受名人在慈善捐赠中的影响，故B选项“并非所有人在进行慈善捐赠时都会受到名人影响”正确。故选B。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“In another study aimed at young people, most participants cited a compelling (无法抗拒的) mission as their main motivation to give. The second most important drive was if a friend or peer recommended supporting a particular cause. Only two percent of respondents said they were motivated by celebrity endorsement. This seems to contradict the general assumption that teenagers are particularly influenced by famous people. One possible explanation is that there is a general fatigue (疲倦) with celebrity culture. There is also a suspicion that the stars are the ones who benefit most when they offer to do charity work. Some critiques have accused that celebrities might actually take attention away from issues by attracting more attention than the causes they represent.(在另一项针对年轻人的研究中，大多数参与者都将一个极具吸引力的使命视为他们捐赠的主要动机。其次是如果朋友或同龄人推荐支持某个特定的事业，这会成为他们捐赠的主要动力。仅有 2% 的受访者表示他们的动机是受到名人推荐的影响。这似乎与普遍认为青少年尤其受名人影响的假设相矛盾。一种可能的解释是，人们对名人文化普遍感到厌倦。还有一种怀疑是，当明星们自愿参与慈善工作时，他们自己往往受益最多。一些批评指出，名人可能会通过吸引更多的关注而分散人们对相关问题的关注，而不是专注于他们所代表的事业)”可知，第三段提到在针对年轻人的研究中，只有2%的受访者受名人代言影响，还分析了可能的原因（对名人文化的疲倦、怀疑名人获益更多等），因此第三段主要讲述了为何年轻人很少会受到名人在慈善捐赠方面的影响。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据作者既提到名人参与慈善的积极作用（提高关注度、筹款、产生实际成果），也指出其局限性（影响被高估、调查显示大众反应平淡、对年轻人影响小等），最后提出应研究如何优化名人与慈善的合作。由此推断，作者对名人参与慈善活动持客观态度。故选A。 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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When your Home Becomes a Tourist Attraction Have you ever looked at a beautiful little new house in London and thought “It must be so amazing to live there”? ____16____ But for the people who actually do live in those homes, social media photography has changed what it means to live in a pictures que place.

(你是否曾看到过伦敦一座漂亮的新房子，然后心里想着：“住在那里一定非常棒吧？”)”可知，本句承接上文，回应了上文提到的普遍存在的想法，故A选项“如果如此的话，那你并不孤单。”符合语境，故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Alice Johnston is a longtime resident of Notting Hill, the London neighborhood famous for the beautifully-painted row houses and for being the setting of the movie of the same name. Johnston, a journalist, has complicated feelings about her Instagram- beloved neighborhood. She lives on Portobello Road, one of the capital’s most famous streets. (艾丽斯·约翰斯顿是诺丁山的常住居民。诺丁山是伦敦的一个著名街区，这里有着色彩艳丽的联排别墅，还曾是同名电影的拍摄地。约翰斯顿是一名记者，对于她钟爱的这个Instagram上的街区，她有着复杂的情感。她住在波特博莱路，这是伦敦最著名的街道之一。)”以及后文“Once, she and a friend were walking his bulldog when a tourist asked if they could “borrow” the pup for a quick photo. The friend and the dog agreed, so the Instagrammer posed with the dog in front of a bright blue door and then handed over five pounds as a thank you. In that story, everybody had a good time. (有一次，她和一位朋友正带着他们的斗牛犬散步，这时一位游客问他们能否“借用”这只小狗拍一张快照。这位朋友和小狗都同意了，于是这位Instagram用户和小狗一起站在一扇明亮的蓝色门前摆好姿势拍照，然后给了五英镑作为感谢。在这件事中，每个人都玩得很开心。)”可知，前文提到Johnston住在著名的Portobello Road，后文举例“游客借她朋友的狗拍照”，故本句承上启下，既说明她身处热门地点的经历，又引出具体例子，故F选项“而且她目睹了各种为了拍出完美照片而做出的行为”符合语境，故选F。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Once, she and a friend were walking his bulldog when a tourist asked if they could “borrow” the pup for a quick photo.

Our group believes that using AI to write essays has both advantages and disadvantages. While it can provide quick ideas, over-reliance may hinder students’ thinking skills. What matters most is learning to express ideas independently. We suggest that students use AI as a tool for inspiration, not answers. Teachers should also set clear rules, like requiring students to explain their essays afterward. This ensures that AI helps rather than replaces learning. In conclusion, we think that AI can be useful if used wisely. What counts is maintaining the balance between technology and self-improvement. Thank you! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生作为小组代表，就高中生用AI写作文的现象发表看法并提出建议。 【详解】1.词汇积累 迅速的：quick → rapid 阻碍：hinder → prevent 独立的：independently → autonomously 建议：suggest → advise 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：Our group believes that using AI to write essays has both advantages and disadvantages. 拓展句：What our group believes is that using AI to write essays has both advantages and disadvantages. 【点睛】【高分句型1】While it can provide quick ideas, over-reliance may hinder students’ thinking skills.（运用了While引导的让步状语从句） 【高分句型2】What matters most is learning to express ideas independently.（运用了What引导的主语从句） 第二节 (满分25分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Thanksgiving Day was just around the corner, and as a first-grade teacher, I was excited to give my class a heartfelt assignment (作业): draw a picture of something they were grateful for. I expected to see drawings of turkeys and pumpkin pictures, symbols of the holiday they might enjoy. Most of the children did draw exactly that — scenes of feasts and family gatherings. Bright colors filled their pages, showing smiling families around dinner tables laden with food. But among this festive atmosphere, there was Lucas, a quiet and sad boy who often stayed by my side while others played at recess (大课间). Lucas was different from the other children. His eyes, always filled with a sadness I could only guess at, seemed to carry the weight of the world. I often found him standing close to me during recess, his small hand sometimes slipping into mine as we watched the other children play. “Take my hand, Lucas, we’ll go outside,” I’d say gently, and he’d follow, his trust obvious in his grip (紧握). When it was Lucas’s turn to share his drawing, he held up his paper, showing a big hand. Just a hand, with nothing else around it. The simplicity of it stirred the imagination of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, explaining that farmers raise turkeys and provide food. Another suggested it was the hand of a police officer, symbolizing protection and care. The discussion went on and on, each child offering a different interpretation (解读). As the children moved on to other assignments, the image of the hand remained in my mind. I couldn’t help but feel there was something more to Lucas’s drawing, something deeper and more personal. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 I approached his desk, my heart heavy with curiosity and concern. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, I made sure to stay close to Lucas, lending a hand whenever possible. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I approached his desk, my heart heavy with curiosity and concern. “Whose hand is it, Lucas?” I asked softly. “It’s yours, Miss White,” he whispered, looking away shyly. His words hit me like a wave, washing over me with an unexpected depth of emotion. In that moment, memories flooded back — times when I had taken his hand to guide him through a lesson, or to comfort him when he seemed lost and alone. It turned out that Lucas was most thankful for MY hand, the hand that had guided him, comforted him, and shown him that he wasn’t alone. His simple yet powerful gesture of gratitude brought tears to my eyes. The next day, I made sure to stay close to Lucas, lending a hand whenever possible. During storytime, I let him turn the pages as I read. When he slipped his hand into mine, I gave it a gentle squeeze. His eyes met mine, and for the first time, I saw not sadness, but happiness. Gradually, his movements seemed less hesitant, his posture a little less tense. During recess, he made his first attempt to join the other children. Watching him tentatively interact with his classmates, I felt a swell of warmth in my chest. Thanksgiving Day came and went, but Lucas’s drawing remained pinned to the wall, a silent testament to the impact of a teacher’s hand. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了感恩节前夕，一位一年级老师布置作业让学生画出感恩的事物，大多数孩子画了节日相关的场景，而安静悲伤的男孩Lucas只画了一只手，同学们纷纷猜测这只手是谁的，老师也觉得Lucas的画有更深层的个人意义。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“我走到他的课桌旁，心里充满了好奇与关切。”可知，第一段可描写作者询问Lucas画的是谁的手，在得知是自己的手之后的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，我特意多留意Lucas，一有机会就向他伸出援手。”可知，第二段可描写作者对Lucas的具体帮助，Lucas发生的积极变化以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：询问是谁的手——回忆涌上心头——感动地热泪盈眶——伸出援手——Lucas发生积极变化——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①安慰：comfort/console ②展示：show/display ③引导：guide/lead 情绪类 ①感谢的：thankful/grateful ②悲伤：sadness/sorrow 【点睛】[高分句型1] When he slipped his hand into mine, I gave it a gentle squeeze.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] Watching him tentatively interact with his classmates, I felt a swell of warmth in my chest.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
