广州六中2024级高二上学期英语学科体验卷 考试时间 2025年9月4日 本试卷共11页，84小题，满分120分 一、单项选择题（共30小题；每小题1分，满分30分） 1. —Why is your father in such a hurry? —He________ for Shanghai to attend an important meeting. The plane ________at six. A. will leave, leave B. leaves, is leaving C. is leaving, will leave D. is leaving, leaves 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：——你父亲为什么这么着急? ——他要去上海参加一个重要会议。飞机六点起飞。第一空用现在进行时表示计划好安排好的将来；第二空中谈论时刻表，用一般现在时表将来。故选D项。 2. People can unlock the ______ bikes, ______ are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public, by simply using their smartphones. A. shared; of which B. shared; which C. sharing; of which D. sharing; which 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和定语从句。句意：人们只需使用智能手机，就可以解锁配备GPS的共享单车，将其停放在公共场所的任何地方。第一空作修饰bikes的定语，share“共有”和bikes逻辑上是被动关系，因此用其过去分词形式，shared bikes意为“共享单车”；第二空引导非限制性定语从句，对先行词bikes作补充说明，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which作引导词。故选B。 3. The student is grateful to his English teacher, without________encouragement he wouldn't have pulled through. A. what B. whose C. whom D. which 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这个学生很感激他的英语老师，没有老师的鼓励，他不会康复。分析句子可知，without________encouragement he wouldn't have pulled through是定语从句，先行词是his English teacher，从句中作定语，修饰encouragement，故用关系代词whose。故选B。 【点睛】定语从句中whose的用法whose引导的定语从句是语法重点，要学好whose引导的定语从句的用法，应注意以下六个方面。 一、whose为who的所有格，作“某(些)人的……”解，它所指代的先行词必须是人，其引导的定语从句修饰它的先行词，同时它本身在从句中作定语。 This is the little girl whose parents were killed in the great earthquake.这就是在那次大地震中失去双亲的那个小姑娘。　 二、whose也可作which的所有格，作“某(些)物的……”解，它所指代的先行词必须是物，其语法功能同上。 The company whose name was Notco was in Australia.那个名叫诺特可的公司设在澳大利亚。 三、由于whose具有兼作who和 which的所有格的双重功能，故在指人时可用of whom代替whose，指物时可用of which代替whose。 This kind of book is for children whose native language(=the native language of whom)is Chinese.这种书是给母语是汉语的儿童看的。 4. He often helps the students _____ he thinks are not quick at their studies. A. whom B. who C. when D. because 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。先行词the students在定语从句中作主语，故用关系代词who，故选B。 5. Michelangelo left us with a great number of sculptures and paintings, and today his works are still examples ______ art students must learn. A. to which B. of which C. whose D. from which 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：米开朗基罗给我们留下了大量的雕塑和绘画作品，今天他的作品仍然是艺术学生必须学习的榜样。空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词examples，examples指物，从句主干成分完整，结合“learn”可知，此处需用learn from“向……学习”的固定搭配，先行词作介词from的宾语，因此应用from which引导定语从句。故选D。 6. Beijing plans to build its first bicycle lane ______ connects a residential area with a business center. A. that B. who C. which D. where 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：北京计划修建首条连接居民区和商业中心的自行车道。空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词bicycle lane，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，且有序数词first修饰先行词，因此只能用关系代词that作引导词。故选A。 7. The teacher often gives his students a brief pause in class ______ they can take in what he has taught. A. why B. when C. who D. which 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这个老师经常在课堂上给学生一个短暂暂停的时间，在这段时间里学生们可以吸收他所讲的内容。前句的先行词是pause间歇，从句主谓宾成分齐全，缺少时间状语，应使用关系副词when引导。故B选项正确。 【点睛】当定语从句中的先行词是表示时间、地点以及原因的词时，引导词用关系代词还是关系副词是同学们很难判断的一个难点。 1.确定成分。首先我们要确定引导词在从句中所作的成分，如果引导词在从句中作状语，那么就用why， when或where，否则用that或which。说起来好像很简单，但是在实际做题的时候，往往会遇到分不出状语还是宾语的情况。 那么怎样才能很容易的判断出引导词在从句中所作的成分呢？教大家一个简单好用的方法 “补全法”，就是根据句子的意思把从句补充完整。补上去的部分在从句中所作的成分就是引导词在从句中所作的成分。举几个例子，大家体会一下： Do you still remember the factory ________ we visited last month？ 我们把从句补充完整为we visited the factory last month.同学们看这个句子，factory在句子中作动词visited宾语，所以引导词在从句中作宾语，因此需要填如关系代词that/which。 Shanghai is the place ________ he was born. 把从句补充完整就是：he was born in Shanghai(the place)，这个句子里的the place作地点状语，所以可以判断出引导词在从句中作状语，因此填关系副词where。 解题技巧：遇到时间和地点，判断成分是关键。主语、宾语用关系代词，状语才能用关系副词。 2、忽略插入语。有的时候，出题人为加大试题难度，会在从句中设置干扰信息，如设置插入语来迷惑我们。此时的我们一定要保持警惕，解题的时候，我们可以将它忽略掉，从而排除干扰信息。举个例子： —Is that the small town you often refer to？ —Right，just the one ________ you know I used to work for years. 这道题很容易受到you know的影响而误填关系代词。其实you know是插入语，解题的时候我们可以把它忽略，把句子简化为just the one ________ I used to work for years，这样同学们就很容易判断出引导词在从句中作地点状语，所以空白处应填关系副词where。 3、模糊化情况。近几年的试题有一个特点表示时间、地点的先行词有些已经不是一个明显的表示时间、地点的词语。如：activity，business，point，case等。同学们在解题时考一定要弄清这些词汇在句中的意义，找准在从句中所作的成分再选用恰当的引导词。 大家特别要注意：point，situation，case后面的定语从句的引导词并不总是由where来引导，只有当引导词在从句中作状语时，才用关系副词where，否则用关系代词。例如： It’s helpful to put children in a situation ________ they can see themselves differently. 解析：先行词situation在定语从句中作地点状语，用关系副词where。 8. We live in this society now ________ literally someone is always helping. A. when B. where C. that D. what 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句连接词。句意：我们现在生活在这样一个确实有人一直在帮助我们的社会里。本句为定语从句修饰先行词the society，且先行词在定语从句中做地点状语，故用where相当于 in which。故选B。 9. Such people ______ were invited to the party showed no special interest in the soup he specially made for them, ______ made him upset. A. who; that B. as; that C. who; which D. as; which 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：被邀请参加聚会的人对他专门为他们做的汤没有什么特别的兴趣，这使他很不高兴。先行词被such修饰，且定语从句缺少主语，应用关系代as引导定语从句。第二空考查非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，从句缺少主语，所以用关系代词which引导。故选D。 10. I was ill that day, otherwise I ______ part in the sports meet. A. would take B. would have taken C. should have taken D. should take 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：那天我病了，否则我就参加运动会了。A. would take (part in)将（参加）；B. would have taken part in本将（参加）；C. should have taken part in本应该（参加）；D. should take part in应该（参加）。should have done“本应该做某事”，暗含“未做”的责备意味。根据“I was ill that day”可知，“参加运动会”是与过去事实相反的假设，otherwise引导的含蓄虚拟语气中，对过去的虚拟应用“would/could/might/should + have + 过去分词”的形式，且此处无责备含义，用would have taken。故选B。 11. — Steve ______ come back because the window is opened. — Yes, but he ______ left it open last night. A. must have; might have B. might have; can’t have C. can have; should have D. might; must have 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查情态动词。句意：—— 史蒂夫一定回来了，因为窗户是开着的。—— 是的，但他可能是昨晚把窗户开着的。must have come back表示对过去发生事情的确定性推测，意为“一定/肯定已经回来”。might have come back表示对过去发生事情的可能性推测，语气不确定，意为“也许/可能已经回来”。can have come back表示应该做某事而没有做；might come back表示对将来或现在情况的推测，语气不确定，意为“也许/可能会回来”。第一空，根据“because the window is opened”可知，说话者根据窗户开着这一现象，推测Steve肯定已经回来了，第一空填must have。might have left it open表示对过去情况的推测，语气不确定，意为“也许、可能（已经）没关”。can’t have left it open表示对过去情况的否定推测，语气肯定，意为“不可能（已经）没关”。should have left it open表示对过去情况的虚拟或责备，意为“本应该没关（却关了）”或“按理应该没关”。must have left it open表示对过去情况的肯定推测，语气强烈，意为“一定（已经）没关”。第二空表对过去事情的不确定推测，might have left符合“不确定是否昨晚把窗户开着”的语境，第二空填might have。故选A。 12. Hurry up! Tom _______ for us at the gate. A. must wait B. must be waiting C. can be waiting D. must have waited 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查情态动词和时态。句意：快点！汤姆一定在大门口等我们。本句是一个推测题，是对现在有把握的肯定推测，所以用情态动词 must。根据语境可知此时汤姆正在等，所以用 must be waiting。故选B。 13. Traditional folk arts of Tianjin like paper cutting ______ at the moment in the culture show of the World Expo. A. are exhibiting B. is exhibiting C. are being exhibited D. is being exhibited 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：天津的传统民间艺术，如剪纸，目前正在世博会的文化展上展出。exhibit(展出)是谓语动词，与主语“Traditional folk arts”之间是被动关系，结合时间状语“at the moment”可知，描述正在发生的事情，用现在进行时的被动语态，主语是复数名词，谓语用复数形式。故选C项。 14. Every possible means ________ to save the miners ________ in the mine. A. have tried; sticking B. has been tried; stuck C. has been tried; sticking D. have been tried; stuck 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查时态语态、主谓一致和非谓语动词。句意：为救被困在矿井里的矿工，所有可能的方法都试过了。try (尝试)是谓语动词，与主语“Every possible means”之间是被动关系，用被动语态，“every+名词”作主语，谓语用单数形式，故排除A、D两项；stick in the mine作后置定语，stick(卡住，陷住)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语the miners之间是被动关系，用过去分词stuck表被动。故选B项。 15. ______, he can’t go out for a walk as usual. A. With so much work to do B. With so much work doing C. With so much work done D. Without so much work to do 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查with的复合结构。句意：有这么多工作要做，所以他不能像平时一样出去散步。此处是with的复合结构“with+宾语+宾补”，在句中作状语，do的动作表示将来，应用动词不定式作宾补，故选A。 16. ______ the news that he had eaten 10 hamburgers in one meal, a(n) ______ expression swiftly appeared on her face. A. After she heard; astonished B. Hearing; delightful C. After she heard; astonishing D. Hearing; delighted 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查连词和形容词词义辨析。句意：当她听到他一顿饭吃了10个汉堡的消息后，她脸上立刻出现了一种惊讶的表情。分析句子可知，本句主句的主语是expression，如果第一句用非谓语的话，必须用独立主格结构，选项中没有，所以不可以用非谓语，after是连词，连接两个句子，表示“在……之后”，故第一空填after；第二空结合句意“惊讶的表情”可知排除B、D选项，astonishing “令人惊讶的”； astonished “感到惊讶的”，因……而人物的表现出的表情，所以用 astonished 修饰。故选A。 【点睛】after用法 当after后面连接的是一个完整句子（至少有主谓）的时候，就是做连词。 当after后面连接的是一个名词或动词ing形式的时候，那就是做介词 关键还是看是否连接一个完整句子。 after用法： 一、conj. (连词) after可用作连词连接一个时间状语从句，从句中一般用现在时表示将来。 二、adv. (副词) 1、after用作副词时常与soon, ever搭配，通常用于表示时间的名词后。 2、after用作副词时不用于比较等级。 17.

A. are discussed B. are to discuss C. being discussed D. to be discussed 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：当前正在被讨论的问题非常重要。本句已有谓语are，此处为非谓语动词，作后置定语，修饰名词issues“问题”，issues与discuss“讨论”之间为被动关系，且由currently“当前”可知，讨论这一动作正在进行，所以应用现在分词的被动形式being discussed。故选C。 19.

A. does the Fujian aircraft carrier allow B. the Fujian aircraft carrier allows C. is the Fujian aircraft carrier allowed D. the Fujian aircraft carrier is allowed 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查倒装句。句意：福建航空母舰配备了比辽宁舰和山东舰更好的系统，不仅可以发射更重的飞机，还可以提高起飞速度。分析句子可知，空格处为句子的主谓部分，根据句意应使用被动语态，因前面有否定词not，此处应使用部分倒装句，把助动词is放在主语the Fujian aircraft carrier前面，故选C项。 20. —______ that he didn’t dare to move an inch. —So ______, and so ______ you, if you were in the dark.

We’re on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms. She’s pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while eatable if prepared properly, is also a known hallucinogen (致幻剂). I have a firm “tell them the truth and be as precise as possible” philosophy and explain what the app says, and that I don’t think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet. Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding, but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life. Last year, after a winter of practicing skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week, Alicia was french-frying her way down blues and even attempted her first black. That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined and I’ve got myself a partner for life. It’s not all easy—but sometimes that’s the point. Alicia practices the violin every day, and although she enjoys it, even 15 minutes of practice can upset her. The trick, I’ve found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too. I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve, she’ll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll end up on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life. 34. What does the father imply by saying “I’ve got myself a partner for life.”? A.

Ambitious and patient. 37. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Thrill of the Skill B. Practice Makes Perfect C. Like Father, Like Daughter D. The Power of Knowledge 【答案】34. C 35. B 36. B 37. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章通过作者女儿不断的尝试各种技能的同时，父亲也做出了表率，希望女儿能够明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。父亲希望技能可以给孩子带来乐趣。 【34题详解】 句意猜测题。根据第二段“Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding, but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life.”（看着你的孩子学习新技能是非常值得的，但我经历的个人成长比我生命中其他任何时候都要多。）以及划线句前“Last year, after a winter of practicing skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week, Alicia was french-frying her way down blues and even attempted her first black. That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined ”（去年，艾丽西亚在为初学者准备的绿色雪道上练习了一个冬天的滑雪之后，她在蓝色中级雪道一路摸索，甚至尝试了她的第一个黑色钻石雪道。那个月我去山上的次数比过去15年的总和还多）可知，孩子在探索的同时，我也在探索。所以划线句的意思是他将和女儿一起探索更多。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve, she’ll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. ”（我从41岁开始上钢琴课，心想如果她看到我在练习和进步的过程中苦苦挣扎，她就会明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。）可知，父亲开始学弹钢琴为了给女儿树立一个好榜样。故选B。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“‘Can we eat this one, Dad?’ my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks. We’re on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms. She’s pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while eatable if prepared properly, is also a known hallucinogen (致幻剂). I have a firm “tell them the truth and be as precise as possible” philosophy and explain what the app says, and that I don’t think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet.”（“我们可以吃这个吗，爸爸?”我四岁的女儿艾丽西娅(Alicia)问道。我们正在进行周四的一次冒险，在附近的树林里寻找可食用的蘑菇。她指着一顶布满白点的鲜红色帽子。我拿出手边的蘑菇识别软件，上面显示，如果准备得当，毒蝇伞虽然可以食用，但也是一种已知的致幻剂。我有一个坚定的“告诉他们真相，并尽可能精确”的理念，并解释了应用程序的内容，我认为我们的周四冒险还没有准备好进行那样的冒险。）可知，作者在女儿问他一种毒蝇伞蘑菇是否可食用，作者查找识别软件，并认为不能尝试食用这种蘑菇，说明作者是一个谨慎的人。最后一段“I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve, she’ll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. ”（我从41岁开始上钢琴课，心想如果她看到我在练习和进步的过程中苦苦挣扎，她就会明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。）可知，父亲开始学弹钢琴为了给女儿树立一个好榜样，说明他是一个鼓舞人心的人。故选B。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“ I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll end up on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life.”（我知道总有一天我会在场边为她加油，因为她找到了自己的激情所在。我对此没有意见，我希望到那时她会把实践和知识的乐趣贯穿一生。）可知，本文通过作者女儿不断的尝试各种技能的同时，父亲也做出了表率，希望女儿能够明白事情来之不易，即使对成年人来说也是如此。父亲希望技能可以给孩子带来乐趣。所以“技能带来的快感”符合最佳标题，故选A。 C A baby born today will be thirty — something in 2050. If all goes well, that baby will still be around in 2100, and might even be an active citizen of the 22nd century. What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life? At present, too many schools across the world focus on providing pupils with a set of predetermined skills, such as writing computer code in C++ and conversing in Chinese. Yet since we have no idea how the world and the job market will look in 2050, we don’t really know what particular skills people will need. We might invest a lot of effort in teaching kids how to write in C++ or to speak Chinese, only to discover by 2050 that AI will have been able to code software far better than humans, and that a new translation app will have enabled you to conduct a conversation in almost flawless Mandarin, Cantonese or Hakka, even though you only know how to say ni hao. So what should we be teaching? Many experts argue that schools should downplay technical skills and emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again. To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life. This is, of course, the oldest advice in the book: know thyself. This advice was never more urgent than in the mid-21st century, because unlike in the days of Laozi or Socrates, now you have serious competition. Coca-Cola, Amazon and Facebook are all racing to hack you. Right now, the algorithms (算法) are watching where you go, what you buy, and who you meet. Soon they will monitor all your steps, breaths and heartbeats. They are relying on big data and machine learning to get to know you better and better. And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them. Of course, you might be perfectly happy giving up all authority to the algorithms and trusting them to make decisions for you and for the rest of the world. If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms. To run fast, don’t take much luggage with you. Leave all your illusions behind. They are very heavy. 38. What does the underlined word “downplay” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. To give too much importance to something. B. To give reasons why you think that something is right or wrong. C. To decide something in advance so that it does not happen by chance. D. To make people think that something is less important than it really is. 39. According to the article, children with ________ will more likely succeed in the world of 2050. A. imagination B. adaptability C. self-discipline D. a good sense of balance 40. Why is it important to know our operating system? A. Because if we don’t, algorithms will hack all our devices. B. Because it is an essential skill for us to succeed in the world of 2050. C. Because we need to outrun algorithms to keep some control over our personal life. D. Because we need to learn how algorithms work and make full use of them to make better decisions for us. 41. The article mainly talks about _________. A. the importance of knowing yourself B. the threats and dangers of technology C. some potential benefits algorithms would bring to humankind D. what kind of skill we might need in the future 【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C 41. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，文章探讨的是未来的教育方向，专家认为未来学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能，为了跟上2050年世界的步伐，我们首先需要不断更新自己。文章讨论了该如何去做以及为什么这么做的原因。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据该词所在句and后的 emphasize“强调”可知，重点是and后的内容，由此猜测该句意为“许多专家认为，学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能”，划线词意为“淡化”。D选项“使人们认为某事物比它实际上更不重要”符合。故选D。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段内容“emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again.(强调通用的生活技能：应对变化的能力，学习新事物的能力，以及在不熟悉的情况下保持心理平衡的能力。为了跟上2050年的世界，你首先需要一次又一次地重塑自己)”可知，专家强调的通用的生活技能都与应对变化有关，这表明适应变化的能力是成功的关键。故选B。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数三段中“To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life.(要成功完成这样一项艰巨的任务，你需要非常努力地去更好地了解你的操作系统——了解你是谁，你想从生活中得到什么)”、倒数第二段中“And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them.(一旦这些算法比你更了解你自己，它们就能控制和操纵你。最终，权力会转移到他们身上)”和最后一段中“If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms.(然而，如果你想对你的个人存在和未来生活保持一定的控制，你就必须比算法运行得更快)”可知，如果算法比你更先了解了你自己，它们就能控制你，所以比算法更快了解自己很重要。故选C。 【41题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life?(我们应该教这个婴儿什么才能帮助他们在2050年及以后的世界生存和发展？他们需要什么样的技能才能找到一份工作，了解周围发生的事情，并在生活的迷宫中穿行？)”可知，文章探讨的是未来的教育方向，专家认为未来学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能，为了跟上2050年世界的步伐，我们首先需要不断更新自己。后文讨论了该如何去做以及为什么这么做的原因。A、B选项以偏概全；C选项错在benefits，文章中提到的明显是算法对我们的威胁。故选D。 D At top universities, there’s a phenomenon known as “Stanford Duck Syndrome (综合征)”. Like ducks, students appear to move gracefully (优雅地). However, beneath the surface, they’re kicking desperately to keep up. Experts from Stanford’s Health Services uncovered this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success. This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common misconception: true geniuses achieve success with ease, while those working hard are less capable. In an effort to challenge this misconception, researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked to observe a series of colors carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity throughout the process. The experiment was divided into two parts: one with easily distinguishable colors and the other with colors that were quite similar, requiring more effort to differentiate. As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning. The study reveals that as tasks require more effort, more areas of the brain become engaged. Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the consistent application of effort. Our brain functions like a muscle. Without effort, even our inborn talents will fade over time. This pushes us to reconsider the underlying culture that might lead to this phenomenon. Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents, we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement. By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. Such a shift would not only reduce the pressures associated with the “Stanford Duck Syndrome”, but also have a profound impact on personal development and the future of education. 42. What phenomenon does the “Stanford Duck Syndrome” probably describe? A. Prioritizing effort over well-being. B. Relieving stress through social activities. C. Displaying graceful images to attract others. D. Hiding hard work to appear naturally gifted. 43. How does the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge the misconception? A. By showing effort fuels the brain activity. B. By proving focus enhances brain function. C. By linking color recognition to intelligence. D. By associating careful observation with talent. 44. What is the author’s main concern about “Stanford Duck Syndrome”? A. It values the learning process over outcomes. B. It causes stress and false ideas about success. C. It prevents students from recognizing their talents. D. It makes students prioritize socializing over studying. 45. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Fortune favors those with a clear vision. B. Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece. C. Work in silence and let success make the noise. D. Keep moving forward even when no one sees it. 【答案】42. D 43. A 44. B 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了“斯坦福鸭子综合征”现象及其影响，并强调努力的重要性。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“At top universities, there’s a phenomenon known as “Stanford Duck Syndrome (综合征)”. Like ducks, students appear to move gracefully (优雅地). However, beneath the surface, they’re kicking desperately to keep up. (在顶尖大学中，有一种被称为“斯坦福鸭子综合征”的现象。就像鸭子一样，学生们表面上看起来行动优雅。然而，在水面之下，他们正拼命划水以跟上节奏。)”和第二段中“Experts from Stanford’s Health Services uncovered this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success. (斯坦福大学健康服务的专家揭示了这一令人担忧的趋势：白天，许多斯坦福学生被看到在咖啡馆里社交，似乎没有任何压力或学习的需求。然而，到了晚上，他们开始学习，有时甚至通宵达旦，试图维持那种毫不费力的成功形象。)”可知，“斯坦福鸭子综合征”描述的是学生们表面上看起来轻松优雅，实际上却在背后拼命努力，以维持自己轻松成功的形象。即隐藏努力工作以显得天生聪明。故选D。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning. (随着任务难度的增加，大脑活动明显增加，特别是在与记忆和抽象推理相关的区域。)”和第四段中“The study reveals that as tasks require more effort, more areas of the brain become engaged. (这项研究表明，随着任务需要更多的努力，大脑更多的区域会变得活跃。)”可知，实验通过展示任务难度增加时，大脑活动特别是与记忆和抽象推理相关的区域活动明显增加，来挑战“天才轻松成功，努力者能力不足”的误解，证明了努力会激发大脑活动。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common misconception: true geniuses achieve success with ease, while those working hard are less capable. (这付出了高昂的代价：疲惫和焦虑普遍存在。此外，这还导致了一个常见的误解：真正的天才能够轻松取得成功，而那些努力的人则能力较差。)”可知，作者对“斯坦福鸭子综合征”的主要担忧是它导致学生产生对成功的错误观念，即认为真正的天才能够轻松取得成功，而努力工作的人则能力较差。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段中“Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the consistent application of effort. Our brain functions like a muscle. Without effort, even our inborn talents will fade over time. (成长不仅仅来自天赋，还来自持续的努力。我们的大脑就像肌肉一样。如果不努力，即使我们天生的才能也会随着时间的推移而消退。)”和“By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. (通过鼓励一种重视努力的文化，我们可以帮助学生认识到智力不是固定的，而是可以通过努力工作得到发展的。)”可知，作者认为成长不仅来自天赋，还来自持续的努力，大脑就像肌肉一样，如果不努力，即使天生的才能也会随时间消退，鼓励重视努力的文化可以帮助学生意识到智力不是固定的，而是通过努力工作成长的。因此，作者可能会同意“汗水是书写杰作的墨水”这一观点，即努力是取得成功的关键。故选B。 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。 Feeling upset is a normal part of life. Something stressful may occur everywhere, and make you angry or anxious. We can’t control what is happening around us. ____46____ Here are some useful ways to keep our cool when we feel frustrated. ____47____ Conflicts with others can be difficult to deal with. Sometimes we need to leave from the unpleasant condition. It is OK to say, “I’m going to take a break” and go for a walk or find a quiet place to sit and cool off. The goal is to give yourself some space to calm down and consider what to do next. Do breathing exercises to relax When we’re upset, our nervous system will speed up our heart rate and muscles tense. It prepares the body as if to meet an attack. ____48____ If possible, find a safe place, sit comfortably and focus on your breath, breathing deeply and evenly. Mindful breathing helps us calm our feelings. Lift your mood with laughter Laughter relieves the tension we feel when depressed. We can think of a joke or watch a video that always makes us roar with laughter. Afterward, you may be able to lift the fog of frustration. Make sure what you use is not mean-spirited, though. ____49____ Change your language Once things appear disappointing, many of us might punish ourselves with unkind words. In fact, it doesn’t have to be this way. ____50____ For example, instead of saying “I always mess things up,” we could say, “I made a mistake, but I’ll do it better next time.” A. Keep yourself away from the noise B. Remove yourself from the situation C. We should turn negative thoughts into positive statements. D. Those kinds of humor can actually make us feel more down. E. Thus, we can be physically and mentally entertained from that. F. You can soften such physical reaction by using practical techniques. G. However, we can decide how we behave and react to the troubles we face. 【答案】46. G 47. B 48. F 49. D 50. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了自我情绪管理的几项有效措施。 【46题详解】 前文“We can’t control what is happening around us. (我们无法控制周围发生的事情。)”结合下文“Here are some useful ways to keep our cool when we feel frustrated. (当我们感到沮丧时，下面是一些有用的方法让我们保持冷静。)”以及下文的小标题内容可知，我们控制不了周围发生的事情，但是我们可以改变自己来保持冷静，不沮丧，因此推断空处承上启下，G项“然而，我们可以决定我们如何行动和如何应对我们面临的麻烦。”符合语境，与上文是转折关系，引出下文内容。故选G。 【47题详解】 分析文章结构可知，空处是段落标题，根据下文“Conflicts with others can be difficult to deal with. Sometimes we need to leave from the unpleasant condition. It is OK to say, “I’m going to take a break” and go for a walk or find a quiet place to sit and cool off. The goal is to give yourself some space to calm down and consider what to do next. (与他人的冲突很难处理。有时候我们需要离开不愉快的环境。你可以说：“我要休息一下”，然后散散步，或者找个安静的地方坐下来凉快一下。这样做的目的是给自己一些空间来冷静下来，考虑下一步要做什么。)”可知，本段建议当与他人有冲突时可以远离那种状况，让自己冷静下来，因此推断B项“脱离那种情况”为最近标题，概况了本段主旨。故选B。 【48题详解】 前文“When we’re upset, our nervous system will speed up our heart rate and muscles tense. It prepares the body as if to meet an attack. (当我们心烦意乱时，我们的神经系统会加快心率，肌肉会紧张。它让身体准备好迎接攻击。)”说明在烦恼的时候，身体会有应激反应，心跳加快，肌肉紧张，F项“你可以用一些实用的技巧来缓和这种生理反应。”符合语境，选项中的such physical reaction呼应前文提到的身体上的反应。故选F。 【49题详解】 前文“Laughter relieves the tension we feel when depressed. We can think of a joke or watch a video that always makes us roar with laughter. Afterward, you may be able to lift the fog of frustration. Make sure what you use is not mean-spirited, though. (笑可以缓解我们沮丧时的紧张感。我们可以想到一个笑话或观看一个总是让我们大笑的视频。之后，你也许能够驱散沮丧的迷雾。不过，请确保你使用的措辞不是刻薄的。)”说明笑声可以缓解沮丧，但是要确保措辞不刻薄，D项“这些幽默实际上会让我们感觉更沮丧。”符合语境，选项上的Those kinds of humor呼应前文提到joke和laughter，说明了措辞刻薄的幽默不能使用的原因，会让人感觉更沮丧。故选D。 【50题详解】 前文“Once things appear disappointing, many of us might punish ourselves with unkind words. In fact, it doesn’t have to be this way. (一旦事情看起来令人失望，我们中的许多人可能会用不友好的话惩罚自己。事实上，它并不一定要这样。)”说明沮丧时说一些不好的话是不可取的，下文“For example, instead of saying “I always mess things up,” we could say, “I made a mistake, but I’ll do it better next time.” (例如，与其说“我总是把事情搞砸”，我们可以说“我犯了一个错误，但下次我会做得更好。”)”举例说明不说消极的话，说积极的话，C项“我们应该把消极的想法变成积极的陈述”符合语境，承上启下。故选C。 三、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Jenifer now lives in Detroit, USA.

B “Can we eat this one, Dad?” my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks. We’re on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms. She’s pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while eatable if prepared properly, is also a known hallucinogen (致幻剂). I have a firm “tell them the truth and be as precise as possible” philosophy and explain what the app says, and that I don’t think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet. Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding, but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life. Last year, after a winter of practicing skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week, Alicia was french-frying her way down blues and even attempted her first black. That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined and I’ve got myself a partner for life. It’s not all easy—but sometimes that’s the point. Alicia practices the violin every day, and although she enjoys it, even 15 minutes of practice can upset her. The trick, I’ve found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too. I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve, she’ll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll end up on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life. 34. What does the father imply by saying “I’ve got myself a partner for life.”? A. It is rewarding to learn new skills. B. Skiing has become his lifelong hobby. C. He will explore more with his daughter. D. His daughter will accompany him forever. 35. Why does the father start learning to play the piano? A. To prove it is never too old to learn. B. To set a good example for his daughter. C. To experience the joy of piano practice. D. To share with his daughter musical knowledge. 36. Which of the following can best describe the father? A. Rigid and humorous. B. Cautious and inspiring. C. Creative and thoughtful. D. Ambitious and patient. 37. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Thrill of the Skill B. Practice Makes Perfect C. Like Father, Like Daughter D. The Power of Knowledge C A baby born today will be thirty — something in 2050. If all goes well, that baby will still be around in 2100, and might even be an active citizen of the 22nd century. What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life? At present, too many schools across the world focus on providing pupils with a set of predetermined skills, such as writing computer code in C++ and conversing in Chinese. Yet since we have no idea how the world and the job market will look in 2050, we don’t really know what particular skills people will need. We might invest a lot of effort in teaching kids how to write in C++ or to speak Chinese, only to discover by 2050 that AI will have been able to code software far better than humans, and that a new translation app will have enabled you to conduct a conversation in almost flawless Mandarin, Cantonese or Hakka, even though you only know how to say ni hao. So what should we be teaching? Many experts argue that schools should downplay technical skills and emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again. To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life. This is, of course, the oldest advice in the book: know thyself. This advice was never more urgent than in the mid-21st century, because unlike in the days of Laozi or Socrates, now you have serious competition. Coca-Cola, Amazon and Facebook are all racing to hack you. Right now, the algorithms (算法) are watching where you go, what you buy, and who you meet. Soon they will monitor all your steps, breaths and heartbeats. They are relying on big data and machine learning to get to know you better and better. And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them. Of course, you might be perfectly happy giving up all authority to the algorithms and trusting them to make decisions for you and for the rest of the world. If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms. To run fast, don’t take much luggage with you. Leave all your illusions behind. They are very heavy. 38. What does the underlined word “downplay” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. To give too much importance to something. B. To give reasons why you think that something is right or wrong. C. To decide something in advance so that it does not happen by chance. D. To make people think that something is less important than it really is. 39. According to the article, children with ________ will more likely succeed in the world of 2050. A. imagination B. adaptability C. self-discipline D. a good sense of balance 40. Why is it important to know our operating system? A. Because if we don’t, algorithms will hack all our devices. B. Because it is an essential skill for us to succeed in the world of 2050. C. Because we need to outrun algorithms to keep some control over our personal life. D. Because we need to learn how algorithms work and make full use of them to make better decisions for us. 41. The article mainly talks about _________. A. the importance of knowing yourself B. the threats and dangers of technology C. some potential benefits algorithms would bring to humankind D. what kind of skill we might need in the future D At top universities, there’s a phenomenon known as “Stanford Duck Syndrome (综合征)”. Like ducks, students appear to move gracefully (优雅地). However, beneath the surface, they’re kicking desperately to keep up. Experts from Stanford’s Health Services uncovered this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success. This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common misconception: true geniuses achieve success with ease, while those working hard are less capable. In an effort to challenge this misconception, researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked to observe a series of colors carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity throughout the process. The experiment was divided into two parts: one with easily distinguishable colors and the other with colors that were quite similar, requiring more effort to differentiate. As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning. The study reveals that as tasks require more effort, more areas of the brain become engaged. Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the consistent application of effort. Our brain functions like a muscle. Without effort, even our inborn talents will fade over time. This pushes us to reconsider the underlying culture that might lead to this phenomenon. Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents, we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement. By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. Such a shift would not only reduce the pressures associated with the “Stanford Duck Syndrome”, but also have a profound impact on personal development and the future of education. 42. What phenomenon does the “Stanford Duck Syndrome” probably describe? A. Prioritizing effort over well-being. B. Relieving stress through social activities. C. Displaying graceful images to attract others. D. Hiding hard work to appear naturally gifted. 43. How does the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge the misconception? A. By showing effort fuels the brain activity. B. By proving focus enhances brain function. C. By linking color recognition to intelligence. D. By associating careful observation with talent. 44. What is the author’s main concern about “Stanford Duck Syndrome”? A. It values the learning process over outcomes. B. It causes stress and false ideas about success. C. It prevents students from recognizing their talents. D. It makes students prioritize socializing over studying. 45. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Fortune favors those with a clear vision. B. Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece. C. Work in silence and let success make the noise. D. Keep moving forward even when no one sees it. 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。 Feeling upset is a normal part of life.
