B The unforgiving demands of the IB program became my reality on the third day of school with an overwhelming physics lab. My teacher’s claim that no one would score above 90% shook my confidence. This anxiety was intensified at home, where my father voiced his concerns over my flat SAT progress, a necessity for a celebrated university. The final catalyst for my breakdown was an unexpected rejection from the Regional Red Cross Youth Council. As vice president of my school’s chapter, I had never considered this possibility. The Red Cross was my passion and what I relied on to set me apart from other applicants. This rejection made my future seem dim, and I broke like a rubber band stretched beyond its limit. I found my mother the woman who had sacrificed her own career and life for my opportunities, and poured out my fears. She listened attentively before drawing a circle on the tablecloth. “This is your time,” she began. “Eighty percent is schoolwork, ten percent the SAT, and ten percent extracurriculars.” She then looked at me with deep emotion and said, “But most importantly, at one hundred percent, is your mental health.” “Nothing is more important than your health,” she continued. “We want you to have a good job so you’ll be less stressed. If this path makes you so unhappy, it isn’t worth it. If you’re happier flipping hamburgers, so be it.” Her insight was a big relief. I realized a rubber band doesn’t have to keep stretching. A rubber band that wraps around your hair during the day and is allowed to rest on your nightstand at night won’t ever break. Though my routine remained the same — studying hard and pursuing excellence — my perspective was forever changed. The fear of failure lost its power. I am still reaching for the moon, but I am no longer afraid. For I know that if I miss, I will land right in my mother’s arms. 4. What does the underlined word “catalyst” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Foundation. B. Solution. C. Symbol. D. Cause. 5. What does the author’s mother attach most importance to? A. The author’s overall wellbeing. B. The sacrifice for her daughter. C. The relief of the author’s stress. D. The author’s devotion to schoolwork. 6. What does the use of the “rubber band” try to illustrate? A. A conflict with her father about goals. B. A bond between the author and her mother. C. A shift in the author’s outlook on pressure. D. A link to the author’s academic performance. 7. What does the author mean by saying “reaching for the moon”? A. She will be unbeatable. B. She will continue to aim high. C. She has achieved all her goals. D. She has a passion for astronomy. C Approximately 4000 years following the last glacial period, hunter-gatherer communities encountered another sudden climate shift that forced rapid adaptation to significantly colder conditions. The 8.2 ka event, occurring 8200 years ago, brought about temperature declines of up to 6°C within mere decades. Meanwhile, the breakaway of a Scotland-sized landmass from the Norwegian continental shelf generated a massive tsunami that completed Britain’s geographical separation from mainland Europe. Despite these severe environmental challenges, northern hemisphere (半球) populations demonstrated remarkable toughness. Through it all, people across the northern hemisphere survived, some by packing up and moving, others by sticking it out. Rick Schulting from the University of Oxford notes: “These communities were not passive victims but actively adapted to changing circumstances.” While previous research had examined regional impacts, Schulting’s comprehensive study compared archaeological evidence and environmental records across northwestern Europe and southern Siberia. To understand how they adapted, scientists compared archaeological findings, such as burial sites and ancient remains, with environmental evidence preserved in ancient lake beds. This combination of clues allowed them to reconstruct past changes in climate and landscape with remarkable precision. Adaptation strategies varied significantly across regions. Coastal communities in Norway’s Oslofjord expanded through increased reliance on marine resources like fish and seals, while Lake Baikal populations showed minimal disruption due to stable water-based supplies. In contrast, northwestern Russian groups around Lake Onega exhibited unusual burial patterns suggesting strategic concentration near reliable food sources, whereas Scottish communities abandoned coastal settlements entirely, likely moving inland to survive the prolonged cold period. This ancient climate event provides crucial insights into human responses to environmental crises. As researchers emphasize, the 8.2 ka event serves as a critical case study for understanding how modern societies might address contemporary climate challenges, demonstrating that human adaptability remains essential for survival in changing environments. 8. What was one major geographical event during the 8.2 ka event? A. The formation of a new landmass. B. Scotland’s breaking off from Norway. C. A tsunami brought by temperature drop. D. Britain’s split from Continental Europe. 9. What was the overall research method of Schulting’s study? A. Analysis of archaeological findings. B. Cross-disciplinary data correlation. C. Computer-simulated climate modeling. D. Comparison with former research. 10. What do the varied adaptation strategies suggest? A. Strategies relied on resources. B. Coastal food became lacking. C. Water access boosted survival. D. Customs signaled survival advantage. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Ancient Tsunami Isolated Britain B. Origins and Effects of the 8.2 Ka Event C. Stone-Age Diets Beating Climate Change D. Ancient Lessons for Modern Climate Crises D “I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos. Anyone engaged in writing understands this truth: the act of writing transforms half-formed ideas into precise, logical thought. What sounds coherent (有条理的) when spoken often appears weak and illogical when committed to paper. A recent MIT study provides convincing scientific evidence for this claim. Researchers used wearable brain scanners to compare students who wrote essays independently with those using AI assistance. The findings were clear: AI-assisted writers “consistently underperformed at brain, verbal, and behavioural levels.” They demonstrated that we need to write in order to think deeply. This research emerges at a critical historical moment for literacy. Childhood reading has reached record lows, with nearly half of British adults not reading a single book last year. Adult literacy is declining or making no progress across most OECD countries. Notably, average IQs have begun to decline since the 1980s, along with reasoning and problem-solving abilities — a trend that is unlikely to be random. Walter Ong’s influential work “Orality and Literacy” illuminates why writing is essential. He argued that literacy enabled Ancient Greece’s intellectual revolution. Oral cultures must “think memorable thoughts”, relying on rhyme, emotion, and cliché (陈词滥调) to preserve knowledge. Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments. In our digital age, no technology has surpassed the complicated architecture of the book. While the internet offers fragmented (碎片化的) information, books provide rich context and sustained logical connections. Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text. As our culture becomes increasingly dominated by short-form videos and attention-fragmenting content, we risk losing the capacity for complex reasoning. Reading and writing form the foundation of serious thought — a habit that unites history’s greatest minds. Before we yield our cognitive development to screens and algorithms, we must carefully consider what we might be sacrificing. 12. What is the function of writing according to John Dos Passos? A. Revealing flaws in speech. B. Recording spoken words. C. Organizing thoughts. D. Ensuring fluency. 13. What is the key advantage of writing over oral cultures? A. It ensures greater objectivity. B. It makes for logical statements. C. It preserves knowledge longer. D. It requires “memorable thoughts”. 14. Why does the author describe reading as “thinking in dialogue with the text”? A. To show its interactive feature. B. To contrast with online reading. C. To underline its logical structure. D. To highlight its cultural relevance. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards people’s reasoning capacity? A. Dismissive. B. Concerned. C. Critical. D. Skeptical. 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。选项这个有两项为多余选项。 Are you an “I person” or an “E person”? These two personality labels in particular are widely discussed online. They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. ____16____ “I” and “E” refer to “introverted” and “extroverted”， respectively. ___17___ This is a common point in many online discussions. For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person. According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”. ____18____ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the MasterClass website. Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. ____19____ My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P people” don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why?” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do?” It was then I realized I’d taken the result too seriously. The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. ____20____ Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. And those four letters of yours don’t define who you are. A. And that’s all it is — for fun. B. However, I went too far at one time. C. Unfortunately, I was once misled by it myself. D. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations. E. Even someone who is typically quiet can act outgoing at times. F. There are 16 results in total, all of which consist of four letters. G. Therefore, it is essential to remember that these labels are not absolute. 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） At the age of 7, I needed to get a vaccination (接种疫苗) before school.

She noticed the large gallon glass jar that was filled with water and tea bags. She went over and sat down on the top of the closed lid (罐盖). It seemed like a nice little seat, just her size. But the hot jar immediately broke into a thousand pieces of glass. Heidi screamed as she hit the concrete. She stood up and displayed a small but deep cut on the back of her leg. Blood poured out of the cut. We were off to the emergency room in a matter of minutes. I tried to calm Heidi as she sat crying softly while we waited for help. After a long wait, we were taken into a small room, and Dr. Anderson came in. He was very calm and friendly. He talked about his grandchildren and told Heidi a silly joke as he examined her injury. He said the cut was pretty deep but not too bad. He put Heidi at ease, and she seemed to hardly notice when he gave her a shot and stitched her up (缝合). After he bandaged Heidi’s leg, he left for a minute and returned with a clean rubber surgical glove. He blew it up like a balloon, tied it, and used a pen to draw a chicken face on it, like the glove was a chicken head and the thumb of the glove was the chicken’s beak (鸟喙). Heidi laughed and played with her new chicken toy for the next few days until it finally deflated (瘪掉). Fast forward thirty years. Beautiful adult Heidi and the family were sharing memories at a holiday dinner, and we talked about the jar accident. I shared what I knew to be the truth: broken glass, Heidi screaming, blood, long waiting-room wait, etc. At this point, Heidi looked at me, genuinely surprised. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按照如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 “Oh, Mom,” she said, “that’s not what happened at all.” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Inspired by her words, I started to see things differently. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 湖北省2025-2026学年度上学期高三10月月考 高三英语试卷 全卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 祝考试顺利 注意事项： 1. 答题前先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并认真核准准考证号条形码上的以上信息，将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑；非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答；字体工整，笔迹清楚。 4. 考试结束后，请将试卷和答题卡一并上交。 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.

In the process of rebuilding the place, she finds her passion and discovers unconditional love.(一位女子回到自己的村庄，却发现村庄已成废墟。在重建村庄的过程中，她找到了自己的热爱，也收获了无条件的爱。)”可知，其中的“in ruins”体现破坏，“rebuilding”（重建）体现重生，由此可知，两本书均探讨了“破坏与重生”的主题。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。 根据The Golden sands of Change部分中的“Hardback: $79.95| E-book: $7.95”，价格差为79.95 - 7.95 = 72美元；根据What’s Really Going On?部分中的“Hardback: $53.99| E-book: $7.99”，价格差为53.99 - 7.99 = 46美元；根据ANWAR: War, Love, and Country部分中的“Hardback: $35.99| E-book: $4.99”，价格差为35.99 - 4.99 = 31美元；根据Aneyzah部分中的“Hardback: $35.99| E-book: $4.99”，价格差为35.99 - 4.99 = 31美元，综上可知，The Golden sands of Change的电子书比精装书节省最多。故选A项。 B The unforgiving demands of the IB program became my reality on the third day of school with an overwhelming physics lab. My teacher’s claim that no one would score above 90% shook my confidence. This anxiety was intensified at home, where my father voiced his concerns over my flat SAT progress, a necessity for a celebrated university. The final catalyst for my breakdown was an unexpected rejection from the Regional Red Cross Youth Council. As vice president of my school’s chapter, I had never considered this possibility. The Red Cross was my passion and what I relied on to set me apart from other applicants. This rejection made my future seem dim, and I broke like a rubber band stretched beyond its limit. I found my mother, the woman who had sacrificed her own career and life for my opportunities, and poured out my fears. She listened attentively before drawing a circle on the tablecloth. “This is your time,” she began. “Eighty percent is schoolwork, ten percent the SAT, and ten percent extracurriculars.” She then looked at me with deep emotion and said, “But most importantly, at one hundred percent, is your mental health.” “Nothing is more important than your health,” she continued. “We want you to have a good job so you’ll be less stressed. If this path makes you so unhappy, it isn’t worth it. If you’re happier flipping hamburgers, so be it.” Her insight was a big relief. I realized a rubber band doesn’t have to keep stretching. A rubber band that wraps around your hair during the day and is allowed to rest on your nightstand at night won’t ever break. Though my routine remained the same — studying hard and pursuing excellence — my perspective was forever changed. The fear of failure lost its power. I am still reaching for the moon, but I am no longer afraid. For I know that if I miss, I will land right in my mother’s arms. 4. What does the underlined word “catalyst” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Foundation. B. Solution. C. Symbol. D. Cause. 5. What does the author’s mother attach most importance to? A. The author’s overall wellbeing. B. The sacrifice for her daughter. C. The relief of the author’s stress. D. The author’s devotion to schoolwork. 6. What does the use of the “rubber band” try to illustrate? A. A conflict with her father about goals. B. A bond between the author and her mother. C. A shift in the author’s outlook on pressure. D. A link to the author’s academic performance. 7. What does the author mean by saying “reaching for the moon”? A. She will be unbeatable. B. She will continue to aim high. C. She has achieved all her goals. D She has a passion for astronomy. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者因IB课程、SAT成绩及红十字会申请受挫而崩溃，在母亲开导下转变对压力的看法，重拾心态的故事。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“The final catalyst for my breakdown was an unexpected rejection from the Regional Red Cross Youth Council. As vice president of my school’s chapter, I had never considered this possibility. The Red Cross was my passion and what I relied on to set me apart from other applicants. This rejection made my future seem dim, and I broke like a rubber band stretched beyond its limit.(导致我崩溃的最后一个catalyst是地区红十字会青年理事会意外的拒绝。作为我校分会的副会长，我从未想过这种可能性。红十字会是我的热爱，也是我赖以区别于其他申请者的优势。这次拒绝让我的未来变得暗淡，我像一根被拉过极限的橡皮筋一样崩溃了。)”可知，红十字会的拒绝是让作者最终崩溃的又一个因素，故“catalyst”意为“原因，诱因”，与“Cause”含义相近。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“She then looked at me with deep emotion and said, “But most importantly, at one hundred percent, is your mental health.”(然后她深情地看着我说：“但最重要的是，这百分之百里，是你的心理健康。”)”以及第四段中的“Nothing is more important than your health,” she continued.(“没有什么比你的健康更重要，”她继续说道。)”可知，作者的母亲最重视的是作者的整体健康状况。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“This rejection made my future seem dim, and I broke like a rubber band stretched beyond its limit.(这次拒绝让我的未来变得暗淡，我像一根被拉过极限的橡皮筋一样崩溃了。)”以及第五段中的“Her insight was a big relief. I realized a rubber band doesn’t have to keep stretching. A rubber band that wraps around your hair during the day and is allowed to rest on your nightstand at night won’t ever break.(她的见解让我如释重负。我意识到橡皮筋不必一直拉伸。一根白天扎头发、晚上能放在床头柜上休息的橡皮筋永远不会断。)”可知，作者最初用“橡皮筋”比喻自己因压力崩溃，后来在母亲开导下，用“能休息的橡皮筋”比喻学会缓解压力，体现了作者对压力看法的转变。故选C项。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Though my routine remained the same — studying hard and pursuing excellence — my perspective was forever changed. The fear of failure lost its power. I am still reaching for the moon, but I am no longer afraid. For I know that if I miss, I will land right in my mother’s arms.(虽然我的日常没有改变——努力学习、追求卓越——但我的观念已经永远改变了。对失败的恐惧失去了力量。我仍然在reaching for the moon，但我不再害怕了。因为我知道，如果我没做到，我会正好落在妈妈的怀里。)”可知，作者依然保持努力学习、追求卓越的状态，只是不再害怕失败，故“reaching for the moon”指“继续树立高远目标并为之努力”，即“aim high”。故选B项。 C Approximately 4000 years following the last glacial period, hunter-gatherer communities encountered another sudden climate shift that forced rapid adaptation to significantly colder conditions. The 8.2 ka event, occurring 8200 years ago, brought about temperature declines of up to 6°C within mere decades. Meanwhile, the breakaway of a Scotland-sized landmass from the Norwegian continental shelf generated a massive tsunami that completed Britain’s geographical separation from mainland Europe. Despite these severe environmental challenges, northern hemisphere (半球) populations demonstrated remarkable toughness. Through it all, people across the northern hemisphere survived, some by packing up and moving, others by sticking it out. Rick Schulting from the University of Oxford notes: “These communities were not passive victims but actively adapted to changing circumstances.” While previous research had examined regional impacts, Schulting’s comprehensive study compared archaeological evidence and environmental records across northwestern Europe and southern Siberia. To understand how they adapted, scientists compared archaeological findings, such as burial sites and ancient remains, with environmental evidence preserved in ancient lake beds. This combination of clues allowed them to reconstruct past changes in climate and landscape with remarkable precision. Adaptation strategies varied significantly across regions. Coastal communities in Norway’s Oslofjord expanded through increased reliance on marine resources like fish and seals, while Lake Baikal populations showed minimal disruption due to stable water-based supplies. In contrast, northwestern Russian groups around Lake Onega exhibited unusual burial patterns suggesting strategic concentration near reliable food sources, whereas Scottish communities abandoned coastal settlements entirely, likely moving inland to survive the prolonged cold period. This ancient climate event provides crucial insights into human responses to environmental crises. As researchers emphasize, the 8.2 ka event serves as a critical case study for understanding how modern societies might address contemporary climate challenges, demonstrating that human adaptability remains essential for survival in changing environments. 8. What was one major geographical event during the 8.2 ka event? A. The formation of a new landmass. B. Scotland’s breaking off from Norway. C. A tsunami brought by temperature drop. D. Britain’s split from Continental Europe. 9. What was the overall research method of Schulting’s study? A. Analysis of archaeological findings. B. Cross-disciplinary data correlation. C. Computer-simulated climate modeling. D. Comparison with former research. 10. What do the varied adaptation strategies suggest? A. Strategies relied on resources. B. Coastal food became lacking. C. Water access boosted survival. D. Customs signaled survival advantage. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Ancient Tsunami Isolated Britain B. Origins and Effects of the 8.2 Ka Event C. Stone-Age Diets Beating Climate Change D Ancient Lessons for Modern Climate Crises 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍8.2千年前气候突变事件及影响，牛津大学舒尔廷团队的跨区域研究，人类多样适应策略，及该事件对现代应对气候危机的启示。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Meanwhile, the breakaway of a Scotland-sized landmass from the Norwegian continental shelf generated a massive tsunami that completed Britain’s geographical separation from mainland Europe.(与此同时，一块苏格兰大小的陆地从挪威大陆架断裂，引发了一场巨大的海啸，最终完成了英国与欧洲大陆的地理分离。)”可知，8.2千年前事件期间的一个主要地理事件是英国与欧洲大陆分离。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“While previous research had examined regional impacts, Schulting’s comprehensive study compared archaeological evidence and environmental records across northwestern Europe and southern Siberia. To understand how they adapted, scientists compared archaeological findings, such as burial sites and ancient remains, with environmental evidence preserved in ancient lake beds.(虽然此前的研究考察了区域影响，但舒尔廷的综合研究比较了欧洲西北部和西伯利亚南部的考古证据与环境记录。为了了解他们是如何适应的，科学家们将墓葬遗址、古代遗迹等考古发现与保存在古代湖床中的环境证据进行了比较。)”可知，舒尔廷研究的整体方法是跨学科数据关联。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Coastal communities in Norway’s Oslofjord expanded through increased reliance on marine resources like fish and seals, while Lake Baikal populations showed minimal disruption due to stable water-based supplies. In contrast, northwestern Russian groups around Lake Onega exhibited unusual burial patterns suggesting strategic concentration near reliable food sources, whereas Scottish communities abandoned coastal settlements entirely, likely moving inland to survive the prolonged cold period.(挪威奥斯陆峡湾的沿海社区通过更多地依赖鱼类、海豹等海洋资源实现发展；贝加尔湖地区居民因稳定的水生资源供应，生活几乎未受干扰；俄罗斯西北部奥涅加湖周边群体的特殊墓葬模式表明他们聚集在可靠食物来源附近；苏格兰社区则完全放弃沿海定居点，可能迁往内陆度过漫长寒冷期。)”可知，不同地区的适应策略均依赖当地可获取的资源，即策略取决于资源情况。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“This ancient climate event provides crucial insights into human responses to environmental crises. As researchers emphasize, the 8.2 ka event serves as a critical case study for understanding how modern societies might address contemporary climate challenges, demonstrating that human adaptability remains essential for survival in changing environments.(这一古代气候事件为人类应对环境危机提供了重要启示。正如研究人员强调的，8.2千年前的事件是理解现代社会如何应对当前气候挑战的关键案例研究，表明人类的适应能力对于在变化的环境中生存仍然至关重要。)”可知，文章核心是通过古代8.2千年前气候事件中人类的适应情况，为现代应对气候危机提供借鉴，“古代气候危机给现代的启示”最能概括全文主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选D项。 D “I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos. Anyone engaged in writing understands this truth: the act of writing transforms half-formed ideas into precise, logical thought. What sounds coherent (有条理的) when spoken often appears weak and illogical when committed to paper. A recent MIT study provides convincing scientific evidence for this claim. Researchers used wearable brain scanners to compare students who wrote essays independently with those using AI assistance. The findings were clear: AI-assisted writers “consistently underperformed at brain, verbal, and behavioural levels.” They demonstrated that we need to write in order to think deeply. This research emerges at a critical historical moment for literacy. Childhood reading has reached record lows, with nearly half of British adults not reading a single book last year. Adult literacy is declining or making no progress across most OECD countries. Notably, average IQs have begun to decline since the 1980s, along with reasoning and problem-solving abilities — a trend that is unlikely to be random. Walter Ong’s influential work “Orality and Literacy” illuminates why writing is essential. He argued that literacy enabled Ancient Greece’s intellectual revolution. Oral cultures must “think memorable thoughts”, relying on rhyme, emotion, and cliché (陈词滥调) to preserve knowledge. Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments. In our digital age, no technology has surpassed the complicated architecture of the book. While the internet offers fragmented (碎片化的) information, books provide rich context and sustained logical connections. Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text. As our culture becomes increasingly dominated by short-form videos and attention-fragmenting content, we risk losing the capacity for complex reasoning. Reading and writing form the foundation of serious thought — a habit that unites history’s greatest minds. Before we yield our cognitive development to screens and algorithms, we must carefully consider what we might be sacrificing. 12. What is the function of writing according to John Dos Passos? A. Revealing flaws in speech. B. Recording spoken words. C. Organizing thoughts. D. Ensuring fluency. 13. What is the key advantage of writing over oral cultures? A It ensures greater objectivity. B. It makes for logical statements. C. It preserves knowledge longer. D. It requires “memorable thoughts”. 14. Why does the author describe reading as “thinking in dialogue with the text”? A To show its interactive feature. B. To contrast with online reading. C. To underline its logical structure. D. To highlight its cultural relevance. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards people’s reasoning capacity? A. Dismissive. B. Concerned. C. Critical. D. Skeptical. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要论述写作能梳理思想、深入思考，结合研究与理论说明读写的重要性，担忧数字时代碎片化内容对复杂推理能力的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的““I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos. Anyone engaged in writing understands this truth: the act of writing transforms half-formed ideas into precise, logical thought. (美国伟大记者约翰·多斯·帕索斯写道：“我写作是为了弄清楚自己在想什么。”任何从事写作的人都明白这个道理：写作行为能将尚未成型的想法转化为精准、有条理的思考。)”可知，约翰·多斯·帕索斯认为写作的作用是梳理思想，将模糊想法转化为清晰思考。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“He argued that literacy enabled Ancient Greece’s intellectual revolution. Oral cultures must “think memorable thoughts”, relying on rhyme, emotion, and cliché (陈词滥调) to preserve knowledge. Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments. (他认为读写能力推动了古希腊的知识革命。口头文化必须“思考易记的内容”，依靠韵律、情感和陈词滥调来保存知识。相比之下，写作能够呈现精准、复杂的表述，这些表述可被审视、回顾，并发展成有条理的论点。)”可知，与口头文化相比，写作的关键优势是能形成有条理的表述。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“While the internet offers fragmented (碎片化的) information, books provide rich context and sustained logical connections. Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text.(互联网提供碎片化信息，而书籍则提供丰富的背景和连贯的逻辑关联。阅读是一个需要参与和专注的主动过程——本质上是与文本对话式的思考。)”可知，作者将阅读描述为“与文本对话式的思考”，是为了体现阅读需要读者主动参与、与文本互动的特点，即突出其互动性。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“As our culture becomes increasingly dominated by short-form videos and attention-fragmenting content, we risk losing the capacity for complex reasoning.(随着我们的文化越来越被短视频和分散注意力的内容主导，我们面临失去复杂推理能力的风险。)”以及“Before we yield our cognitive development to screens and algorithms, we must carefully consider what we might be sacrificing.(在我们将认知发展交给屏幕和算法之前，我们必须仔细思考可能会牺牲什么。)”可知，作者担忧碎片化内容导致人们推理能力下降，对人们的推理能力持担忧态度。故选B项。 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。选项这个有两项为多余选项。 Are you an “I person” or an “E person”? These two personality labels in particular are widely discussed online. They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. ____16____ “I” and “E” refer to “introverted” and “extroverted”， respectively. ___17___ This is a common point in many online discussions. For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person. According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”. ____18____ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the MasterClass website. Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. ____19____ My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P people” don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why?” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do?” It was then I realized I’d taken the result too seriously. The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. ____20____ Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. And those four letters of yours don’t define who you are. A. And that’s all it is — for fun. B. However, I went too far at one time. C. Unfortunately, I was once misled by it myself. D. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations. E. Even someone who is typically quiet can act outgoing at times. F. There are 16 results in total, all of which consist of four letters. G. Therefore, it is essential to remember that these labels are not absolute. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. D 19. B 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕MBTI人格测试中的“I型（内向）”与“E型（外向）”展开，介绍了MBTI测试的基本情况，探讨了“人格伪装”现象，通过个人经历反思过度依赖测试结果的问题，最终指出MBTI测试的本质是趣味工具，不应作为定义个人或评判他人的标准。 【16题详解】 根据前文“They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI.(它们是流行的迈尔斯-布里格斯类型指标，即MBTI人格测试的一部分)”以及后文“‘I’ and ‘E’ refer to ‘introverted’ and ‘extroverted’, respectively.(‘I’和‘E’分别指‘内向’和‘外向’)”可知，此空需衔接MBTI测试的整体构成与“I/E”的具体含义，补充测试结果的基本形式。F选项“There are 16 results in total, all of which consist of four letters.(该测试共有16种结果，每种结果均由四个字母组成)”符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据后文“This is a common point in many online discussions. For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an ‘E’ person.(这是许多网上讨论的常见观点。例如，当一个内向的人与一群内向的朋友在一起时，他们可能会变得更外向，像‘E型人’一样)”可知，后文通过例子说明“内向者有时会表现得外向”，此空需概括这一核心观点。E选项“Even someone who is typically quiet can act outgoing at times.(即使是平时安静的人，有时也会表现得外向)”符合语境。故选E项。 【18题详解】 根据前文“According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called ‘masking’.(心理学家表示，这种暂时切换人格的行为被称为‘伪装’)”可知，前文定义了“masking（人格伪装）”，此空需进一步解释该术语的含义。D选项“That is hiding your true personality in specific situations.(即在特定情况下隐藏自己真实的人格)”符合语境。故选D项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun.(用MBTI测试结果来识别和描述一个人的性格似乎很有趣)”以及后文“My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan... It was then I realized I’d taken the result too seriously.(我妹妹正兴奋地制定每日旅行计划……那时我才意识到自己把测试结果看得太认真了)”可知，此空需通过转折承接“测试有趣”的观点，引出“自己过度依赖测试结果”的经历。B选项“However, I went too far at one time.(然而，我曾一度做得太过了)”符合语境。故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends.(MBTI人格测试可能会让你发现一些自己不知道的特质，甚至可以作为认识新朋友时有趣的破冰话题)”以及后文“Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. And those four letters of yours don’t define who you are.(知道一个人的MBTI结果并不意味着你真正了解这个人。那四个字母也不能定义你是谁)”可知，此空需总结MBTI测试的核心定位——“趣味工具”。A选项“And that’s all it is — for fun.(而这就是它的全部意义——仅供娱乐)”符合语境。故选A项。 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） At the age of 7, I needed to get a vaccination (接种疫苗) before school.

Inspired 45. commitment 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了中国于9月3日在北京天安门广场举行阅兵仪式，以庆祝中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年。文中阐述了阅兵的规模、展示的武器装备特点，强调此次阅兵旨在铭记历史、维护和平，还提及各界人士观看阅兵后的感受。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：9月3日，中国在北京天安门广场举行阅兵仪式，以庆祝中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年。已有谓语动词“held”，此处应用非谓语动词作目的状语，表示举行阅兵仪式的目的是“庆祝……胜利”，所以用动词不定式to celebrate。故填to celebrate。 【37题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：阅兵期间，1万多名军人，以及100多架飞机和数百件地面武器，按照战时指挥结构编成45个方队。根据语境，事情发生在过去，应用一般过去时。主语“more than 10,000 military personnel, along with over 100 aircraft and hundreds of ground weapons”与“organize”之间是被动关系，即“这些人员和武器装备被组织”，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were +过去分词”。“along with”连接两个名词作主语时，谓语动词的数与前面的名词保持一致，前面的名词“more than 10,000 military personnel”是复数，所以用were organized。故填were organized。 【38题详解】 考查固定短语。句意：人民解放军的大多数新型支援和武器系统首次亮相，展示了中国在武器研发方面的自主创新能力。“put...on display”是固定短语，意为“展示；展览”，所以用on。故填on。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：人民解放军的大多数新型支援和武器系统首次亮相，展示了中国在武器研发方面的自主创新能力。已有谓语动词“were put on display”，此处应用非谓语动词。“most of the People’s Liberation Army’s new support and weapon systems”与“demonstrate（展示）”之间是主动关系，即这些武器系统的展示主动体现了中国的创新能力，所以用现在分词demonstrating作伴随状语，表示与“put on display”同时发生的动作。故填demonstrating。 【40题详解】 考查副词。句意：所有武器装备均为国产，具有更高的打击精度、更强的战场适应性和更大的效能。此处修饰动词“produced”，应用副词形式，domestic的副词是domestically，意为“在国内；国产地”。故填domestically。 【41题详解】 考查冠词。句意：中国人民为捍卫世界和平做出了重大贡献，这是世界反法西斯战争的重要组成部分。“an important part of...”是固定搭配，意为“……的一个重要部分”，important是以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词an。故填an。 【42题详解】 考查连词。句意：这次阅兵并非为了炫耀武力，而是为了铭记历史、坚守和平。“not...but...”是固定搭配，意为“不是……而是……”，连接两个并列的成分，符合语境。故填but。 【43题详解】 考查状语从句。句意：警察吴佳妮表示，这次纪念活动如此感人，以至于她感觉与八十年前的人们产生了强烈的情感共鸣。“so...that...”是固定句型，意为“如此……以至于……”，引导结果状语从句，符合语境。故填that。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：“受到战时英雄奉献精神的鼓舞，我们将继续以战士们在战争中展现出的同样的奉献精神为人民服务。”她补充道。分析句子结构，已有谓语动词“will continue”，此处应用非谓语动词。“we”与“inspire（鼓舞）”之间是被动关系，即“我们被鼓舞”，所以用过去分词Inspired作状语，表被动和完成。句首单词首字母大写，故填Inspired。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：“受到战时英雄奉献精神的鼓舞，我们将继续以战士们在战争中展现出的同样的奉献精神为人民服务。”她补充道。根据空前的“the same”可知，此处应填名词作宾语，commit的名词形式是commitment，意为“奉献；承诺”，在这里表示“战士们的奉献精神”，作介词with的宾语。故填commitment。 第四部分 写作 （共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作 （满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你校国际部将举办“魅力中国节 (Charming Chinese Festivals）”文化展播活动。请给你校交换生Linda写一封邮件，邀请她合作拍摄一个3分钟的短视频，介绍一个中国传统节日 （如端午节、中秋节等）。内容包括：1. 你提议的节日及拍摄构思 （如习俗、故事、美食等）；2. 征求她的想法并商定讨论时间。 注意： 1. 词数80左右； 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Linda, Hope this email finds you well! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】参考范文 Dear Linda, Hope this email finds you well.

She noticed the large gallon glass jar that was filled with water and tea bags. She went over and sat down on the top of the closed lid (罐盖). It seemed like a nice little seat, just her size. But the hot jar immediately broke into a thousand pieces of glass. Heidi screamed as she hit the concrete. She stood up and displayed a small but deep cut on the back of her leg. Blood poured out of the cut. We were off to the emergency room in a matter of minutes. I tried to calm Heidi as she sat crying softly while we waited for help. After a long wait, we were taken into a small room, and Dr. Anderson came in. He was very calm and friendly. He talked about his grandchildren and told Heidi a silly joke as he examined her injury. He said the cut was pretty deep but not too bad. He put Heidi at ease, and she seemed to hardly notice when he gave her a shot and stitched her up (缝合). After he bandaged Heidi’s leg, he left for a minute and returned with a clean rubber surgical glove. He blew it up like a balloon, tied it, and used a pen to draw a chicken face on it, like the glove was a chicken head and the thumb of the glove was the chicken’s beak (鸟喙). Heidi laughed and played with her new chicken toy for the next few days until it finally deflated (瘪掉). Fast forward thirty years. Beautiful adult Heidi and the family were sharing memories at a holiday dinner, and we talked about the jar accident. I shared what I knew to be the truth: broken glass, Heidi screaming, blood, long waiting-room wait, etc. At this point, Heidi looked at me, genuinely surprised. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按照如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 “Oh, Mom,” she said, “that’s not what happened at all.” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Inspired by her words, I started to see things differently. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Paragraph 1: “Oh, Mom,” she said, “that’s not what happened at all.” Her eyes sparkled as she began recalling her version. “What stays with me isn’t the broken glass or the pain. It’s how Dr. Anderson comforted me with his warm laughter and funny stories.” A gentle smile touched her lips as she shared her memory. She told us all about that silly chicken-head glove, explaining that she still looked back fondly on that day. The whole family listened, captivated by her sunny retelling of the past. I watched my grown daughter in amazement, moved by how she had preserved only the light and left all the darkness behind. It struck me then how differently we had experienced the very same event. Paragraph 2: Inspired by her words, I started to see things differently. “You’re absolutely right, Heidi,” I said, my voice soft with newfound understanding. “It reminds me of when I fell off my bike and scraped my knees. What I remember now isn’t the pain, but how my father carried me all the way home, singing my favorite song.” Around the table, faces softened as we all began sharing not our old wounds, but the kindness and joy that had followed. That night, my daughter taught me to filter out life’s negatives — to cherish the hands that lift us up after a hard fall, and to always look for the chicken balloon hidden in every broken jar. I made a promise to myself: to live in the moment, enjoy the good, and quickly let go of the bad without dwelling on them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以海蒂的童年受伤经历及记忆差异为线索，讲述了三岁的海蒂因坐在玻璃罐盖上致罐子破碎受伤，就医时安德森医生用幽默和玩具安抚她；三十年后家庭聚餐时，海蒂对母亲回忆的事故经过提出不同看法的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““哦，妈妈，”她说，“根本不是那样的。””可知，第一段描写海蒂回忆事故，她印象深刻的不是伤痛，而是安德森医生的安慰和鸡头手套玩具，家人被她的回忆吸引，母亲惊讶于两人对同一件事的不同记忆。 ②由第二段首句内容“受到她话语的启发，我开始以不同的方式看待事情。”可知，第二段描写母亲受海蒂启发，分享自己的类似记忆，家人纷纷讲述温暖回忆，母亲领悟到要过滤生活中的负面，珍惜善意与快乐。 2. 续写线索：海蒂纠正记忆——回忆医生的温暖——母亲惊讶——母亲受启发分享记忆——家人共鸣——母亲领悟道理 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①回忆：recall/remember/look back ②过滤：filter out/screen out/separate ③珍惜：cherish/treasure/value 情绪类 ①惊讶：amazement/surprise ②感动：moved/touched/affected 【点睛】[高分句型1] Her eyes sparkled as she began recalling her version.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] What stays with me isn’t the broken glass or the pain.（运用了what引导的主语从句） [高分句型3] She told us all about that silly chicken-head glove, explaining that she still looked back fondly on that day.（运用了现在分词短语作状语以及that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
