It’s often said that people who are born blind or lose their sight, especially when young, can touch, taste, smell, and hear better than those who can see. Donna Posont, who is blind, helps others use their enhanced hearing to detect thousands of bird songs. Posont is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Dearborn. She leads a monthly program she founded at the college. It’s called Birding by Ear and Beyond. It’s held on Saturday each month. During the program, Posont leads visually-impaired people through 120 acres of campus forest. They listen for the sounds of many birds. These include crows, geese, chickadees, woodpeckers, robins, and red-winged blackbirds. Participants learn to tell the sometimes subtle differences between bird species. They also learn how each bird fits into their habitat. “The world is designed for sighted people, but nature is a special place where it’s okay to be blind,” Posont told The Washington Post. “You can use your other senses to learn why birds and nature are important and how it all works (as one). To me, that’s the beauty of it.” Posont is 67 years old. She has been blind since second grade. She was born with retinitis pigmentosa. It’s a worsening condition that affects the back wall of the eye. She graduated in environmental studies from the college. She’s also a certified interpretive guide and part-time naturalist at Michigan-Dearborn. Jerusalem Crawley first met Posont at a summer camp for the visually impaired. He’s been attending her classes for 15 years. As a child, Crawley said he had no idea there were thousands of bird species. “I used to think all birds were alike,” Crawley told Audubon Magazine. “This opened my eyes,” he said. Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different lens. The ability to identify birds by ear becomes a gateway to understanding the relationships within ecosystems and the value of nature. 4. What does Posont’s program focus on? A. Training blind people to be nature guides. B. Providing blind people a safe outdoor space. C. Helping blind people identify birds by sound. D. Leading blind people to protect campus forest. 5. Why does Posont think nature is a special place for blind people? A. Nature helps people learn about birds’ habitat. B. Nature benefits blind people’s physical health. C. Blind people can study the behavior of wildlife. D. Blind people can experience nature with other senses. 6. What can you infer from the last paragraph? A. The process of Posont’s program. B. The challenge of Posont’s program. C. The development of Posont’s program. D. The significance of Posont’s program. 7. Which would be the best title for the text? A. Birding by Ear: A Program for the Blind B. Beauty of Nature: A Journey of Discovery C. Natural Sound: A Journey to the Unknown D. Donna Posont: A Volunteer for Bird Protection How important are the first three episodes (集) to a show? The first three episodes of a drama are crucial for keeping viewers engaged. Tencent Video data suggests that almost 40% of viewers abandon a show within the first three episodes, with 35% of those abandoning it within the first seven minutes of the first episode. But now, the old rules of judging a show by its first few episodes are fading. The audience has developed from the double-speed watching at the beginning to the commentary- style (弹幕式) watching, and then to the fragmented (碎片化) watching that is appearing now. The audience’s speed of watching shows has been speeding up. When the audience is more and more casual in watching shows, we can’t help but ask, is it because shows nowadays are bad? Or is it because the audience is impatient? For young people who are active on social media, they have many choices. When a new show comes out, they will not watch the first three episodes, but go to Weibo, Douban and other social media platforms to watch short video clips. When a show can’t get popular in the first week, it basically fails. The poet Coleridge said “Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink.” This explains the value of short videos: in the crowded field of information, you can’t get any useful knowledge. Watching shows by short videos is different from watching movies or reading novels. While we are surrounded by short videos, finding real knowledge is a struggle. Short videos offer instant satisfaction but lack depth, finally destroying the artistic value of film and television. This constant stream of fragmented information can make us lazy thinkers. Nowadays, people don’t have the patience to watch a movie, a famous book, or an in-depth article. Neil Postman’s warning that we’re becoming “amused to death” is proving true. 8. What does the data from Tencent Video suggest? A. Viewers’ expectation for shows. B. Viewers’ impatience with shows. C. Viewers’ opinions on making shows. D. Viewers’ reasons for abandoning shows. 9. Why have the audience changed their habits of watching shows? A. The shows have become longer today. B. The quality of shows has decreased greatly. C. Audience may not like watching shows as before. D. Social media provides many choices of short videos. 10. What is the influence of watching shows by short videos? A. It will reduce viewers’ confusion. B. It will narrow viewers’ horizon. C. It will weaken viewers’ thinking abilities. D. It will provide viewers useful knowledge. 11. How does the author feel about the change in watching shows? A. Worried. B. Surprised. C. Uncertain. D. Satisfied. D Where were the dull sounds of flying insects hitting against the light bulb? Even the absent singing of cicadas or crickets, whichever they were, had quieted its instruments. Where have all the insects gone? Our own existence depends on a diverse insect world. Studies show that where more insect species are present, pollination (授粉) is more reliable. As Dave Goulson, professor of biology, points out in his book Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse, about three-quarters of all crops grown by humans require pollination by animals, the vast majority by insects. “We could not feed the global human population without pollinators,” he writes. It’s not just about bees and butterflies, the beautiful insects. Other, less visually appealing pollinators such as flies, moths, and earwigs are also showing declines. Several of these species don’t just pollinate. They also eat the pest (害虫) insects that ruin crops. It turns out that ecologists and entomologists around the world have been warning about declining insect numbers for years. The culprits are climate change, habitat loss, light pollution, intensive farming, pesticide and fertilizer use. But it’s a struggle to get people to act. After all, we humans have a complicated relationship with our six-legged fellow companions. Who can forget the horror of Kafka’s Metamorphosis (《变形记》), where a travelling salesman wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into an insect? Even insects like butterflies and bees can seem strange when you look at them closely. Maybe we’ve been ignoring them because they seem different from us. Some steps may be as simple as turning off artificial light. A recent study in China found that trees in Beijing, lit by street lights at night, seem to have tougher leaves. In other words, insects are probably being starved in the area. We should change our attitudes to insects. Those annoying flies hovering around your food are simply doing what they were born for. They’re recycling. Without them we might be wondering what to do about rotting (腐烂的) waste. Besides, they’re food for birds, and UK bird populations have greatly decreased in recent years. 12. What can we learn about insects in the first two paragraphs? A. Insect decline threatens global food supply. B. Beautiful insects can help kill the pests. C. Less appealing insects are on the increase. D. Insect pollination affects the crop types. 13 What does the underlined word “culprits” mean in paragraph 3? A. Causes. B. Solutions. C. Effects. D. Consequences. 14. What does the author want to say by mentioning Kafka’s Metamorphosis? A. The book of insects is interesting. B. Unattractive insects are ignored. C. Our relationship with insects is far from simple. D. Insects are everywhere in our lives. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To explore the diversity of the insects. B. To compare the different features of insects. C. To review the history of human-insect relationship. D To warn about the insect decline and its effects. 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。选项中有两项多余选项。 If you’re looking for reasons to start training your self-discipline, then you can begin by looking at the benefits of being self-disciplined.

It was a typical summer afternoon. Bob suggested we skip a language lesson to play basketball. Ahal I would show my defense, lay-ups and three-point shooting. I loved to explore, I loved sports, and I loved basketball most. I believed I would be the next LeBron James. But my passion for sports came to a sudden stop when I began experiencing extreme back pain later that day. After several visits to doctors, finally I was told that a spine(脊柱) surgery was necessary. Unfortunately, the surgery accidentally damaged my spinal cord(脊髓). I was in the ward hanging face down to relieve the pressure on my spine. After four-month rehabilitation training(康复训练) in hospital, reality slowly set in—I was unable to walk again. I couldn’t believe this should have happened to me, that it wasn’t possible to recover, that I wouldn’t become a famous basketball player, that my life as I had known it, was over. My future would be chained to a wheelchair. I was just 16 years old! Back home, I learned how hard it was going to be to get around in a wheelchair. I withdrew from my friends and my basketball. At Bob’s repeated invitation, I agreed to go to our regular swimming hole. Unable to make it down the riverbank alone, I was too proud to ask for help. When I finally realized my pride would keep me away from people and sports I loved, I let Bob carry me on his back to the river’s edge. Allowing others to help was a turning point. I realized my attitude was the biggest barrier I had to face. How could I expect others to see my potential if I didn’t see it myself? How could I realize my basketball dream if I withdrew into myself? 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One day, Bob took me to a wheelchair basketball game. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Bob’s encouragement, I decided to have a try at my dream. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 长沙市实验中学2024级高二上期第一次阶段检测 英语试题 命题人：高二英语备课组 审题人：高二英语备课组 本试卷共4部分共10页 满分：150分 时间：120分钟 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

Donna Posont, who is blind, helps others use their enhanced hearing to detect thousands of bird songs. Posont is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Dearborn. She leads a monthly program she founded at the college. It’s called Birding by Ear and Beyond. It’s held on Saturday each month. During the program, Posont leads visually-impaired people through 120 acres of campus forest. They listen for the sounds of many birds. These include crows, geese, chickadees, woodpeckers, robins, and red-winged blackbirds. Participants learn to tell the sometimes subtle differences between bird species. They also learn how each bird fits into their habitat. “The world is designed for sighted people, but nature is a special place where it’s okay to be blind,” Posont told The Washington Post. “You can use your other senses to learn why birds and nature are important and how it all works (as one). To me, that’s the beauty of it.” Posont is 67 years old She has been blind since second grade. She was born with retinitis pigmentosa. It’s a worsening condition that affects the back wall of the eye. She graduated in environmental studies from the college. She’s also a certified interpretive guide and part-time naturalist at Michigan-Dearborn. Jerusalem Crawley first met Posont at a summer camp for the visually impaired. He’s been attending her classes for 15 years. As a child, Crawley said he had no idea there were thousands of bird species. “I used to think all birds were alike,” Crawley told Audubon Magazine. “This opened my eyes,” he said. Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different lens. The ability to identify birds by ear becomes a gateway to understanding the relationships within ecosystems and the value of nature. 4. What does Posont’s program focus on? A. Training blind people to be nature guides. B. Providing blind people a safe outdoor space. C. Helping blind people identify birds by sound. D. Leading blind people to protect campus forest. 5. Why does Posont think nature is a special place for blind people? A. Nature helps people learn about birds’ habitat. B. Nature benefits blind people’s physical health. C. Blind people can study the behavior of wildlife. D. Blind people can experience nature with other senses. 6. What can you infer from the last paragraph? A. The process of Posont’s program. B. The challenge of Posont’s program. C. The development of Posont’s program. D. The significance of Posont’s program. 7. Which would be the best title for the text? A. Birding by Ear: A Program for the Blind B. Beauty of Nature: A Journey of Discovery C. Natural Sound: A Journey to the Unknown D. Donna Posont: A Volunteer for Bird Protection 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了盲人女性 Donna Posont 如何利用声音辨别鸟类,并以此为基础创办了Birding by Ear and Beyond项目，帮助其他视障人士通过听觉体验自然世界。文章通过 Posont的经历和项目参与者的感受，展现了自然界对视障人士的独特意义，以及利用非视觉感官探索世界的可能性。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“During the program, Posont leads visually-impaired people through 120 acres of campus forest. They listen for the sounds of many birds. These include crows, geese, chickadees, woodpeckers, robins, and red-winged blackbirds. (在这个项目中，波斯特带领视障人士穿过120英亩的校园森林。他们倾听许多鸟的叫声。这些鸟类包括乌鸦、鹅、山雀、啄木鸟、知更鸟和红翼黑鸟)”可知，Posont 的项目旨在帮助视障人士通过声音辨别鸟类。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中 Posont 所说“The world is designed for sighted people, but nature is a special place where it’s okay to be blind(这个世界是为视力正常的人设计的，但大自然是一个特殊的地方，在那里盲人也没关系)”以及“You can use your other senses to learn why birds and nature are important and how it all works.(你可以用你的其他感官来了解为什么鸟类和自然是重要的，以及它们是如何作为一个整体运作的)”可知，她认为自然界为视障人士提供了利用其他感官体验世界的机会。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different lens. The ability to identify birds by ear becomes a gateway to understanding the relationships within ecosystems and the value of nature.(通过她的项目，Posont不仅帮助视障人士与自然联系，还激励他们挑战自己的观念，通过不同的视角拥抱世界。通过耳朵识别鸟类的能力成为理解生态系统内部关系和自然价值的门户)”可知，该段总结了 Posont 的项目的意义，说明它不仅帮助视障人士与自然建立联系，更重要的是鼓励他们挑战感知，从不同的角度拥抱世界。通过辨别鸟类声音，他们能够理解生态系统中的关系和自然价值，从而实现自我成长。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It’s often said that people who are born blind or lose their sight, especially when young, can touch, taste, smell, and hear better than those who can see. Donna Posont, who is blind, helps others use their enhanced hearing to detect thousands of bird songs.(人们常说，天生失明或失明的人，尤其是在年轻时，比那些能看见的人在触觉、味觉、嗅觉和听觉方面都要好。唐娜·波森特是盲人，她帮助其他人利用他们增强的听觉来探测成千上万的鸟鸣)”及第二段“She leads a monthly program she founded at the college. It’s called Birding by Ear and Beyond.(她领导着她在学院创立的一个月度项目)”及最后一段“Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different lens.(通过她的项目，Posont不仅帮助视障人士与自然联系，还激励他们挑战自己的观念，通过不同的视角拥抱世界)”并结合全文可知，本文主要讲述了 Donna Posont 为视障人士创办的Birding by Ear and Beyond项目，该项目以声音辨别鸟类为核心，并介绍了这个项目的具体安排及其意义。故选A项。 How important are the first three episodes (集) to a show? The first three episodes of a drama are crucial for keeping viewers engaged. Tencent Video data suggests that almost 40% of viewers abandon a show within the first three episodes, with 35% of those abandoning it within the first seven minutes of the first episode. But now, the old rules of judging a show by its first few episodes are fading. The audience has developed from the double-speed watching at the beginning to the commentary- style (弹幕式) watching, and then to the fragmented (碎片化) watching that is appearing now. The audience’s speed of watching shows has been speeding up. When the audience is more and more casual in watching shows, we can’t help but ask, is it because shows nowadays are bad? Or is it because the audience is impatient? For young people who are active on social media, they have many choices. When a new show comes out, they will not watch the first three episodes, but go to Weibo, Douban and other social media platforms to watch short video clips. When a show can’t get popular in the first week, it basically fails. The poet Coleridge said “Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink.” This explains the value of short videos: in the crowded field of information, you can’t get any useful knowledge. Watching shows by short videos is different from watching movies or reading novels. While we are surrounded by short videos, finding real knowledge is a struggle. Short videos offer instant satisfaction but lack depth, finally destroying the artistic value of film and television. This constant stream of fragmented information can make us lazy thinkers. Nowadays, people don’t have the patience to watch a movie, a famous book, or an in-depth article. Neil Postman’s warning that we’re becoming “amused to death” is proving true. 8. What does the data from Tencent Video suggest? A. Viewers’ expectation for shows. B. Viewers’ impatience with shows. C. Viewers’ opinions on making shows. D. Viewers’ reasons for abandoning shows. 9. Why have the audience changed their habits of watching shows? A. The shows have become longer today. B. The quality of shows has decreased greatly. C. Audience may not like watching shows as before. D. Social media provides many choices of short videos. 10. What is the influence of watching shows by short videos? A. It will reduce viewers’ confusion. B. It will narrow viewers’ horizon. C. It will weaken viewers’ thinking abilities. D. It will provide viewers useful knowledge. 11. How does the author feel about the change in watching shows? A. Worried. B. Surprised. C. Uncertain. D. Satisfied. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了随着观看习惯的改变，电视剧的前几集对观众吸引力的重要性减弱，以及碎片化观看趋势影响影视艺术价值。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Tencent Video data suggests that almost 40% of viewers abandon a show within the first three episodes, with 35% of those abandoning it within the first seven minutes of the first episode. (腾讯视频的数据显示，近40%的观众在前三集就放弃了一部剧，35%的观众在第一集的前七分钟就放弃了这部剧。)”可知，观众对电视剧的耐心不足。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段“When the audience is more and more casual in watching shows, we can’t help but ask, is it because shows nowadays are bad? Or is it because the audience is impatient? For young people who are active on social media, they have many choices. When a new show comes out, they will not watch the first three episodes, but go to Weibo, Douban and other social media platforms to watch short video clips. When a show can’t get popular in the first week, it basically fails. (当观众越来越随意地看节目时，我们不禁要问，这是因为现在的节目不好吗？还是因为听众没有耐心？对于活跃在社交媒体上的年轻人来说，他们有很多选择。当一部新剧播出时，他们不会看前三集，而是去微博、豆瓣等社交媒体平台看短视频。如果一部剧在第一周不受欢迎，它基本上就失败了。)”可知，社交媒体提供了很多短视频的选择，改变了观众的观剧习惯。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段中“This constant stream of fragmented information can make us lazy thinkers. (这种持续不断的碎片化信息会让我们变得懒惰。)”可知，这说明通过短视频看剧会削弱观众的思维能力。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“Nowadays, people don’t have the patience to watch a movie, a famous book, or an in-depth article. Neil Postman’s warning that we’re becoming “amused to death” is proving true. (现在，人们没有耐心去看一部电影、一本名著或一篇深入的文章。Neil Postman警告说，我们正变得“被逗乐到死”，事实证明这是真的。)”可知，作者对观剧习惯的改变感到担忧。故选A。 D Where were the dull sounds of flying insects hitting against the light bulb? Even the absent singing of cicadas or crickets, whichever they were, had quieted its instruments. Where have all the insects gone? Our own existence depends on a diverse insect world. Studies show that where more insect species are present, pollination (授粉) is more reliable. As Dave Goulson, professor of biology, points out in his book Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse, about three-quarters of all crops grown by humans require pollination by animals, the vast majority by insects. “We could not feed the global human population without pollinators,” he writes. It’s not just about bees and butterflies, the beautiful insects. Other, less visually appealing pollinators such as flies, moths, and earwigs are also showing declines. Several of these species don’t just pollinate. They also eat the pest (害虫) insects that ruin crops. It turns out that ecologists and entomologists around the world have been warning about declining insect numbers for years. The culprits are climate change, habitat loss, light pollution, intensive farming, pesticide and fertilizer use. But it’s a struggle to get people to act. After all we humans have a complicated relationship with our six-legged fellow companions. Who can forget the horror of Kafka’s Metamorphosis (《变形记》), where a travelling salesman wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into an insect? Even insects like butterflies and bees can seem strange when you look at them closely. Maybe we’ve been ignoring them because they seem different from us. Some steps may be as simple as turning off artificial light. A recent study in China found that trees in Beijing, lit by street lights at night, seem to have tougher leaves. In other words, insects are probably being starved in the area. We should change our attitudes to insects. Those annoying flies hovering around your food are simply doing what they were born for. They’re recycling. Without them we might be wondering what to do about rotting (腐烂的) waste. Besides, they’re food for birds, and UK bird populations have greatly decreased in recent years. 12. What can we learn about insects in the first two paragraphs? A. Insect decline threatens global food supply. B. Beautiful insects can help kill the pests. C. Less appealing insects are on the increase. D. Insect pollination affects the crop types. 13. What does the underlined word “culprits” mean in paragraph 3? A. Causes. B. Solutions. C. Effects. D. Consequences. 14. What does the author want to say by mentioning Kafka’s Metamorphosis? A. The book of insects is interesting. B. Unattractive insects are ignored. C. Our relationship with insects is far from simple. D. Insects are everywhere in our lives. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To explore the diversity of the insects. B. To compare the different features of insects. C. To review the history of human-insect relationship. D. To warn about the insect decline and its effects. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以昆虫数量减少的现象切入，引出昆虫对生态系统和人类生存的重要性，并指出昆虫数量下降是由于气候变化、栖息地丧失、光污染、集约化农业、杀虫剂和化肥使用等因素造成的，并强调了人类对昆虫的态度需要改变。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Where were the dull sounds of flying insects hitting against the light bulb? Even the absent singing of cicadas or crickets, whichever they were, had quieted its instruments. Where have all the insects gone? (那些飞行昆虫撞击灯泡时发出的沉闷声响去哪儿了？就连蝉或蟋蟀那种若有若无的鸣叫声也已消失得无影无踪，仿佛它们的“乐器”也已停止了演奏。所有的昆虫都去哪儿了？)”和第二段“Our own existence depends on a diverse insect world. Studies show that where more insect species are present, pollination (授粉) is more reliable. As Dave Goulson, professor of biology, points out in his book  Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse, about three-quarters of all crops grown by humans require pollination by animals, the vast majority by insects. “We could not feed the global human population without pollinators,” he writes. (我们的生存依赖于一个多样化的昆虫世界。研究表明，昆虫种类越多的地方，授粉就越可靠。生物学教授Dave Goulson在他的书《寂静的地球：避免昆虫末日》中指出，人类种植的所有作物中，约有四分之三需要动物授粉，其中绝大多数是昆虫。“没有传粉媒介，我们无法养活全球人口，”他写道)”可知，文章引出昆虫数量下降的现象，并且重点说明了昆虫对人类食物生产的重要性。并强调没有授粉者，我们无法养活全球人口。这表明昆虫数量下降威胁着全球粮食供应。故选A。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“It turns out that ecologists and entomologists around the world have been warning about declining insect numbers for years. (事实证明，世界各地的生态学家和昆虫学家多年来一直在警告昆虫数量下降)”以及划线词下文“are climate change, habitat loss, light pollution, intensive farming, pesticide and fertilizer use. (是气候变化、栖息地丧失、光污染、集约化农业、农药和化肥的使用。)”可推测，划线词所在句指出昆虫数量下降的原因是气候变化、栖息地丧失、光污染、集约化农业、农药和化肥的使用。“The culprits”指的是这些导致昆虫数量下降的因素、原因，culprits指“原因”，和causes同义，故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But it’s a struggle to get people to act. After all, we humans have a complicated relationship with our six-legged fellow companions. Who can forget the horror of Kafka’s Metamorphosis (《变形记》), where a travelling salesman wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into an insect? Even insects like butterflies and bees can seem strange when you look at them closely. Maybe we’ve been ignoring them because they seem different from us. (但要让人们行动起来是很困难的。毕竟，我们人类与六条腿的同伴有着复杂的关系。谁能忘记卡夫卡的《变形记》（Metamorphosis）中的恐怖情节呢？一个旅行推销员一天早上醒来，发现自己变成了一只昆虫。即使是蝴蝶和蜜蜂这样的昆虫，当你仔细观察它们时，也会觉得很奇怪。也许我们一直忽视它们是因为它们看起来和我们不同)”可推断，作者用卡夫卡的《变形记》这本书的例子来进一步说明人类对昆虫的复杂感情。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。文章从昆虫数量减少的现象切入，并重点阐述了昆虫数量下降的原因以及对生态系统和人类生活的影响。作者通过一系列论证，呼吁人们重视昆虫的价值，并采取措施保护昆虫。因此，文章的目的是警告人们昆虫数量下降及其影响。故选D。 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。选项中有两项多余选项。 If you’re looking for reasons to start training your self-discipline, then you can begin by looking at the benefits of being self-disciplined.

It helps you handle conflict effectively without becoming overly protective or losing your temper and reacting angrily.(能够在行动之前停下来思考一下自己的感受是一项重要的人际交往技巧。它可以帮助你有效地处理冲突，而不会变得过度保护或发脾气和生气。)”具体说明自律如何帮助控制情绪从而提升人际交往能力。选项E“A self-disciplined person is better able to manage emotions intelligently(自律的人更能明智地管理情绪)”承上启下，既说明自律与人际关系的联系，又为下文“控制情绪”提供了支持。故选E项。 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The bond between mother and daughter is irreplaceable.

It was a typical summer afternoon. Bob suggested we skip a language lesson to play basketball. Ahal I would show my defense, lay-ups and three-point shooting. I loved to explore, I loved sports, and I loved basketball most. I believed I would be the next LeBron James. But my passion for sports came to a sudden stop when I began experiencing extreme back pain later that day. After several visits to doctors, finally I was told that a spine(脊柱) surgery was necessary. Unfortunately, the surgery accidentally damaged my spinal cord(脊髓). I was in the ward hanging face down to relieve the pressure on my spine. After four-month rehabilitation training(康复训练) in hospital, reality slowly set in—I was unable to walk again. I couldn’t believe this should have happened to me, that it wasn’t possible to recover, that I wouldn’t become a famous basketball player, that my life as I had known it, was over. My future would be chained to a wheelchair. I was just 16 years old! Back home, I learned how hard it was going to be to get around in a wheelchair. I withdrew from my friends and my basketball. At Bob’s repeated invitation, I agreed to go to our regular swimming hole. Unable to make it down the riverbank alone, I was too proud to ask for help. When I finally realized my pride would keep me away from people and sports I loved, I let Bob carry me on his back to the river’s edge. Allowing others to help was a turning point. I realized my attitude was the biggest barrier I had to face. How could I expect others to see my potential if I didn’t see it myself? How could I realize my basketball dream if I withdrew into myself? 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One day, Bob took me to a wheelchair basketball game. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Bob’s encouragement, I decided to have a try at my dream. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One day, Bob took me to a wheelchair basketball game. This became a decisive turning point in my life. The same basketball court and the same excited audience. The only difference was that the players were moving around in their wheelchairs just like I did. They turned around, charging forward and showing their lay-ups nimbly. Amazed at their skill, I kept applauding until the game concluded. Then, Bob said something that was going to change my life forever, “Jack, if they can do it, so can you! Why not reignite your basketball dream?” With Bob’s encouragement, I decided to have a try at my dream. I signed up for a basketball course for the disabled. Every weekend, my teammates and I would practice moving, turning around, passing the ball and shooting in a wheelchair. When Bob watched my game three months later, it was he who kept applauding for my regained basketball skill. Thanks to Bob’s encouragement and my changing attitude, I am now on my way to becoming LeBron James. The only difference is that my version of James is playing in the wheelchair, but by no means confined to it. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者曾经是一名篮球运动爱好者，作者梦想成为一名篮球明星。但是突如其来的疾病让作者再也走不了路，更谈不上成为篮球明显。作者非常沮丧，幸亏作者的朋友鼓励和陪伴作者，作者终于走出了心理上的困境，开始了自己的轮椅篮球梦。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天，鲍勃带我去看轮椅篮球比赛。”可知，第一段可描写轮椅篮球比赛给作者带来的触动。 ②由第二段首句内容“在鲍勃的鼓励下，我决定尝试一下我的梦想。”可知，第二段可描写作者决定重新开始自己的篮球梦。 2.续写线索：梦想成为明星——疾病——沮丧——鼓励——触动——重拾篮球梦 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①结束：conclude/end ②拍手：applaud/clap ③限制在：confine to/be limited to 情绪类 ①兴奋的：excited/thrilled ②吃惊的：amazed/astonished/stunned/shocked 【点睛】【高分句型1】Amazed at their skill, I kept applauding until the game concluded.（运用了until引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】When Bob watched my game three months later, it was he who kept applauding for my regained basketball skill.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句和强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
