2025-2026学年度第一学期高二级段考1 英语科试卷 第二部分 阅读 (共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (15个小题；每题2. 5分，满分37. 5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone is open year-round to visitors, though experiences differ depending on the season you visit. March-May: Snow can continue to fall into March and many of the roads may remain closed, with ploughing usually beginning some time in April. Hiking conditions at this time are wet. You won’t find many crowds, for good reason. June-August: The busiest time of year in the park is July and August, as families arrive in their droves and temperatures rise up into the mid-20s (℃). Backcountry trails are fully open and this is the ideal time to go hiking. September-October: By September, the weather is pretty mild (highs of 19℃ in September). Bears can be spotted by roadside as they try desperately to fatten up before winter. November-February: Temperatures can drop below zero, but this also yields some unique experiences. Elk and bison are already migrating in impressive herds and this is a great time for wolf spotting-their dark coats are much easier to see against a white backdrop of snow. Wolf-tracking trips are a must. Cost of travel Entrance fees for Yellowstone are £16 for individuals and an additional £30 for a car. Campsites vary in price, costing as little as £12.50 per night. Accommodation During the peak summer months, prices rise and rooms are booked up long in advance. In winter just a handful of the park’s lodges remain open. 1. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A research report. B. A science newspaper. C. A travel brochure. D. A geography textbook. 2. Which month is most suitable for hiking in Yellowstone National Park? A. July. B. April. C. October. D. November. 3. How much should a couple driving a car pay for entrance fees? A. £46. B. £44.5. C. £32. D. £62. 【答案】1. C 2. A 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要向游客介绍了国家黄石公园的相关的信息。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone is open year-round to visitors, though experiences differ depending on the season you visit.(黄石公园全年向游客开放，不过游客的体验会因季节而异)”以及后文对旅行时间、费用和住宿方面进行介绍，可知，文章可能来自旅行小册子。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据June-August下的介绍“Backcountry trails are fully open and this is the ideal time to go hiking.(偏僻的小路完全开放，这是徒步旅行的理想时间)”可知，七月最适合在黄石国家公园徒步旅行。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cost of travel下的介绍“Entrance fees for Yellowstone are £16 for individuals and an additional £30 for a car. (黄石公园的个人门票为16英镑，汽车门票另加30英镑)”可知一对夫妇开车支付门票为：£16+£16+£30=£62。故选D。 B After 25 years, of professional experience, Brandi Fields thought she wouldn’t get back to campus again — until her son Kyle’s transformation at Texas Christian University (TCU) made her see education in a new light. The mother and her son will strengthen their connection even more at this week’s spring graduation ceremony, as they honor their achievement of earning graduate degrees at the same time. Brandi, 50, and Kyle,.22, will walk across the stage together to accept their respective graduate degrees, with their family and friends cheering them on from the audience. Kyle began his undergraduate studies at TCU in the fall of 2020. Soon after, his family moved to Fort Worth, motivated to be closer as a family. In May 2023, Kyle earned his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in communications and a minor in business. In fall 2023, both mother and son were back in the classroom — Brandi joined the EMBA program and Kyle began the master’s degree program with AddRan College of Liberal Arts. Brandi said her new college experience brought immersive (沉浸式的) learning, late night readings and a transformative study abroad trip to South Africa. Through it all, she described feeling deeply supported by her family and the remarkable EMBA academic (学术的) team and staff who shaped her experience to be impactful and unforgettable. Outside the classroom, Brandi and Kyle found a lot of moments of connection. “Spending time together, just doing homework on the sofa gave us a lot of time, a lot of things to connect through,” Kyle shared. About this week’s spring graduation ceremony, Brandi said she’s not yet sure how she’ll react on that day, but she knows there will no doubt be tears as she cheers on her son as he walks across the stage. For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever. 4. What made Brandi decide to return to school? A. The invitation from TCU. B. A must for her career advancement. C. A desire to strengthen family relationship. D. Inspiration from her son’s academic journey. 5. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A.

For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever. (关于本周的春季毕业典礼，布兰迪表示，她还不确定自己届时会有何反应，但她知道，当她看着儿子走上舞台时，自己肯定会热泪盈眶。而她自己也将身着学位帽和长袍，站在埃德和雷·朔尔迈尔体育馆的地板上为儿子欢呼，这将成为她珍视一生的独特回忆。)”可知，文章讲述了布兰迪和儿子凯尔一起在大学学习并同时获得研究生学位，期间母子关系更加紧密的故事，体现了“一起学习，关系更紧密”的主题。B选项“Learning together, bonding stronger (一起学习，关系更紧密)”符合题意。故选B。 C One year ago, in an art competition at the Colorado State Fair in the United States, an artwork created with help from artificial intelligence (AI) called “Théâtre D’opéra Spatial” won the first prize in the digital art category and sparked discussions online. Now, officials with the 151-year-old fair have revised the contest’s rules: Artists must claim whether they used AI to make their entries, reports the Denver Post’s John Wenzel. The saga (事件) began last August, when game designer Jason Allen won the top spot in the fair’s digital arts competition. When he shared his victory online, he mentioned that he’d used Midjourney — an AI program that turns text into images — to help create his piece, titled “Th éâtre D’opéra Spatial”. Allen maintained he was open about using AI from the beginning, though the judges said they didn’t know until after the fact. Either way, claim wasn’t necessary at the time, meaning Allen never broke any rules. His victory was controversial (有争议的) — and now, as a result, officials have decided to tweak the submission requirements. At this year’s fair, which took place in Pueblo between August 26 and September 4, artists needed to “tell if art or artwork was created using an Artificial Intelligence Generator,” according to this year’s requirements. Allen wasn’t happy about the new requirement, telling the Denver Post that it was essentially a “discriminatory mark” against AI artworks. Despite the change, he decided to submit once again to the digital arts category. The fair’s leaders say they plan to continue adapting as technology advances. As ScottStoller, the fair’s general manager, tells the Denver Post, the digital arts category itself has only been around for a few decades. In the future, officials may even decide to add a separate AI category, depending on how popular tools like Midjourney become. “That’s the beauty of art — that it’s always evolving,” says Stoller. “Art can be anything, and anything can be made into art.” 8. What can be learnt about Jason Allen? A. He developed an AI program. B. He revised the rules of an arts contest. C. He won first place in an art competition. D. He was the leader of the Colorado State Fair. 9. What does the underlined word “tweak” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Select. B. Revise. C. Continue. D. Create. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Allen broke the art competition rules. B. Some people thought Allen deserved the victory. C. Artists can’t use AI to make their entries. D. Th éâtre D’opéra Spatial was completely created by AI. 11. What’s Stoller’s attitude towards the AI artworks? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Approving. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一年前，在美国科罗拉多州博览会的一项艺术竞赛中，一件由人工智能（AI）帮助创作的作品获得了数字艺术类别的一等奖，并在网上引发了讨论。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The saga (事件) began last August, when game designer Jason Allen won the top spot in the fair’s digital arts competition. (这个故事始于去年8月，当时游戏设计师杰森·艾伦赢得了博览会数字艺术竞赛的冠军)”可知，他在艺术比赛中获得第一名。故选C项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Now, officials with the 151-year-old fair have revised the contest’s rules: Artists must claim whether they used AI to make their entries, reports the Denver Post’s John Wenzel. (据《丹佛邮报》的约翰·温泽尔报道，现在，这个有着151年历史的博览会的官员修改了比赛规则：艺术家必须声明他们是否使用了人工智能来制作作品)”以及第四段中划线词前文“His victory was controversial (有争议的) (他的胜利引起了争议)”可知，他的成功引起了争议，因此，官员们决定修改提交作品的要求，从而推知划线词意思是“修改”。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Allen maintained he was open about using AI from the beginning, though the judges said they didn’t know until after the fact. Either way, claim wasn’t necessary at the time, meaning Allen never broke any rules. (艾伦坚持表示，他从一开始就公开使用人工智能，尽管评委们说他们直到事情发生后才得知。无论如何，当时并没有相关规定要求声明，这意味着艾伦并未违反任何规则)”及第四段中“His victory was controversial (有争议的) — and now, as a result, officials have decided to tweak the submission requirements. (他的胜利引发了争议——而现在，因此，官员们决定调整提交作品的要求)”可知，艾伦没有违反规则，他的胜利引发了争议，但并未明确说明有人反对他获奖，故可推测出有些人可能认为他的作品值得获奖，否则不会引发广泛的讨论。故选B项。 11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““That’s the beauty of art — that it’s always evolving,” says Stoller. “Art can be anything, and anything can be made into art.”(斯托勒说：“这就是艺术的美——它总是在不断发展。”“艺术可以是任何东西，任何东西都可以变成艺术)”可知，斯托勒对人工智能艺术品的态度是赞成的。故选C项。 D A recent study from the University of Guelph in Canada has revealed a surprising discovery about common eastern bumblebees (大黄蜂): These insects can survive underwater for up to a week. This finding, published in the journal Biology Letters, came about due to an experimental error when researchers placed hibernating (冬眠的) queen bumblebees in water and found them alive days later. The discovery has impressed scientists. particularly because bumblebees are land-based creatures not typically associated with water environments. Nigel Raine, a professor in the school of environmental sciences at the university and the study’s lead author, expressed his astonishment at the results. To further explore this phenomenon, Raine and his team conducted an experiment involving 143 hibernating queen bumblebees. They discovered that those placed underwater for up to seven days had similar survival rates to those not, indicating that the bees’ ability to survive such conditions may be more common than previously thought. The research underlines the strength of bumblebees during their hibernation period. a critical phase in their life cycle that has remained largely unexplored. Queen bumblebees typically hibernate alone in small holes during the cold months, which are believed to protect them from flooding. However, this study reveals that these bees possess an unexpected adaptation, allowing them to survive even in flooded conditions. Given these findings, one possible explanation for their survival is diapause, a state of suspended growth and reproduction characterized by reduced oxygen intake. During this state. bumblebees may close their spiracles (气孔) to prevent water from entering their bodies, and they might also breathe through their skin. This energy-saving mode is likely a key factor in their ability to survive beneath the water. Raine emphasized the importance of understanding these mechanisms, as it could have significant implications for the study of wild insects that help with plant reproduction, which are crucial for food security and ecosystem health, His team’s research will aim to determine whether hibernating queens can survive even longer periods underwater and if similar strength exists in other bee species. 12. What do we know about the finding? A. It matched prior beliefs. B. It concerned sea insects. C. It was fully anticipated. D. It was made by accident. 13. What can be inferred about bumblebees from paragraph 3? A. They hibernate in groups for protection. B. They are always protected from flooding. C. They have a hidden adaptation mechanism. D. They reproduce better in flooded conditions. 14. What may Nigel Raine do in the future? A. Secure research patents. B. Prioritize dietary security. C. Conduct further research. D. Raise ecological awareness. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Bumblebee Reproductive Habits B. Bumblebee Hibernation Patterns C. Scientists’ Experimental Methods D. Bumblebee Survival Underwater 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。一项研究发现，东部大黄蜂可以在水下生存长达一周，这种适应能力在以往未被发现。研究表明。大黄蜂在冬眠期间可能通过关闭气孔和减缓新陈代谢来实现这一生存技巧，这一发现对研究野生昆虫的生存机制具有重要意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This finding, published in the journal Biology Letters, came about due to an experimental error when researchers placed hibernating (冬眠的) queen bumblebees in water and found them alive days later. The discovery has impressed scientists. particularly because bumblebees are land-based creatures not typically associated with water environments.(这一发现发表在《生物学快报》杂志上，是由于一个实验错误造成的，当时研究人员将冬眠的大黄蜂皇后放在水中，几天后发现它们还活着。这一发现给科学家们留下了深刻印象。特别是因为大黄蜂是陆生生物，通常与水环境无关)”可知，研究人员在一次实验错误中发现冬眠中的大黄蜂能够在水下生存数天。这说明这个发现是偶然的，而非预先计划的。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, this study reveals that these bees possess an unexpected adaptation, allowing them to survive even in flooded conditions.(然而，这项研究揭示了这些蜜蜂具有意想不到的适应性，使它们即使在洪水条件下也能生存)”可知，研究发现大黄蜂在水下能够生存，这表明它们其备一种未被发现的适应机制，这一机制帮助它们在洪水等极端条件下生存。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Raine emphasized the importance of understanding these mechanisms, as it could have significant implications for the study of wild insects that help with plant reproduction, which are crucial for food security and ecosystem health, His team’s research will aim to determine whether hibernating queens can survive even longer periods underwater and if similar strength exists in other bee species.(Raine强调了理解这些机制的重要性，因为它可能对帮助植物繁殖的野生昆虫的研究具有重要意义，这对粮食安全和生态系统健康至关重要。他的团队的研究将旨在确定冬眠的蜂王是否可以在水下存活更长的时间，以及其他蜜蜂物种是否存在类似的力量)”可知，Nigel Raine强调了理解蜜蜂在水下存活机制的重要性，所以他将继续进行研究。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A recent study from the University of Guelph in Canada has revealed a surprising discovery about common eastern bumblebees (大黄蜂): These insects can survive underwater for up to a week. This finding, published in the journal Biology Letters, came about due to an experimental error when researchers placed hibernating (冬眠的) queen bumblebees in water and found them alive days later. The discovery has impressed scientists. particularly because bumblebees are land-based creatures not typically associated with water environments.(加拿大圭尔夫大学最近的一项研究揭示了一个关于普通东部大黄蜂的惊人发现:这些昆虫可以在水下存活长达一周。这一发现发表在《生物学快报》杂志上，是由于一个实验错误造成的，当时研究人员将冬眠的大黄蜂皇后放在水中，几天后发现它们还活着。这一发现给科学家们留下了深刻印象。特别是因为大黄蜂是陆生生物，通常与水环境无关)”以及通读全文可知，文章的主要内容集中在大黄蜂在水下生存的发现及其意义，因此D项“Bumblebee Survival Underwater(大黄蜂在水下生存)”是最合适的标题。故选D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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We all have strengths and weaknesses-that’ s completely normal.

Although she is so old, she never realized her dream—she wanted to have a birthday party. She also wished to receive 105 birthday cards, the same number as her age. Lorene Summey is an elderly person at Somerset Court, a nursing home in Cherryville, North Carolina. Two months ago, a worker in the nursing home asked Summey what she would like for her upcoming birthday. “We have an old lady that has a birthday next month and she will be 105 years old! She has never had a big birthday party before, so I asked her several months ago what she would like to do for her birthday. She said she would love to have square dance at her birthday party,” Jodie Lankford wrote in a Facebook post. “I think this wish is not quite too difficult, and we can help her to achieve.” “She explained to us her experiences in her childhood. She said her sister could always go out to enjoy herself but she had to stay home most of the time to take care of the younger ones. She felt unfairly treated by her parents at the time,” she said. “She wanted her hair and makeup done, and she wanted to wear the same dress she wore when she was young.” “She is also concerned about another thing—she doesn’t think she could have 105 birthday cards sent by mail to her for her birthday! I’ve told her that we will have more. I have made her believe that her wish is sure to come true,” Lankford added. Last Friday night, her great birthday party began on the square of the nursing home. The time came for the old lady to realize her wish. 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。 Summey looked especially beautiful that day. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Back to her room, the caregivers showed Summey the birthday cards. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Summey looked especially beautiful that day. She wore a hat with jewelry and a dress with bright designs of flowers. She arrived at the party surrounded by a group of guests. Music started and the first program was the square dance. They celebrated the old lady’s birthday with a beautiful dance. Then, her friends and relatives gave her flowers, which kept her smiling all the time. At the end of the party, all the people present sang “Happy Birthday to You”. Back to her room, the caregivers showed Summey the birthday cards. The old lady’s concerns about the number of her birthday cards turned out to be unnecessary. Instead of 105 birthday cards, she received more than 1,200, which came from people all over the country. There’s at least one card from every U.S. state. Other cards arrived from as faraway as England. From the bottom of her heart, Summery thanked each of the workers who took the time to make her birthday wish come true! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一位北卡罗来纳州的女性想要庆祝105岁的生日，她想要跳方块舞，同时还想要收到105张贺卡，养老院的工作人员帮助她实现心愿的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那天萨米看起来特别漂亮。”可知，第一段可描写生日派对的成功举办，工作人员一起和Summey跳方块舞。 ②由第二段首句内容“回到她的房间，护理人员给她看生日贺卡。”可知，第二段可描写Summey收到了梦想的卡片并完成了心愿，她内心充满感激。 2.续写线索：Summery跳舞——大家祝福她“生日快乐”——收到贺卡——Summey感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 1.庆祝：celebrate/observe 2.证明：turn out/prove 3. 微笑：smile/beam 情绪类 ①.担忧：concern/worry/fear ②.感谢：thank/show one’s gratitude to/be grateful 【点睛】[高分句型1].

March-May: Snow can continue to fall into March and many of the roads may remain closed, with ploughing usually beginning some time in April. Hiking conditions at this time are wet. You won’t find many crowds, for good reason. June-August: The busiest time of year in the park is July and August, as families arrive in their droves and temperatures rise up into the mid-20s (℃). Backcountry trails are fully open and this is the ideal time to go hiking. September-October: By September, the weather is pretty mild (highs of 19℃ in September). Bears can be spotted by roadside as they try desperately to fatten up before winter. November-February: Temperatures can drop below zero, but this also yields some unique experiences. Elk and bison are already migrating in impressive herds and this is a great time for wolf spotting-their dark coats are much easier to see against a white backdrop of snow. Wolf-tracking trips are a must. Cost of travel Entrance fees for Yellowstone are £16 for individuals and an additional £30 for a car. Campsites vary in price, costing as little as £12.50 per night. Accommodation During the peak summer months, prices rise and rooms are booked up long in advance. In winter just a handful of the park’s lodges remain open. 1. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A research report. B. A science newspaper. C. A travel brochure. D. A geography textbook. 2. Which month is most suitable for hiking in Yellowstone National Park? A. July. B. April. C. October. D. November. 3. How much should a couple driving a car pay for entrance fees? A. £46. B. £44.5. C. £32. D. £62. B After 25 years, of professional experience, Brandi Fields thought she wouldn’t get back to campus again — until her son Kyle’s transformation at Texas Christian University (TCU) made her see education in a new light. The mother and her son will strengthen their connection even more at this week’s spring graduation ceremony, as they honor their achievement of earning graduate degrees at the same time. Brandi, 50, and Kyle,.22, will walk across the stage together to accept their respective graduate degrees, with their family and friends cheering them on from the audience. Kyle began his undergraduate studies at TCU in the fall of 2020. Soon after, his family moved to Fort Worth, motivated to be closer as a family. In May 2023, Kyle earned his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in communications and a minor in business. In fall 2023, both mother and son were back in the classroom — Brandi joined the EMBA program and Kyle began the master’s degree program with AddRan College of Liberal Arts. Brandi said her new college experience brought immersive (沉浸式的) learning, late night readings and a transformative study abroad trip to South Africa. Through it all, she described feeling deeply supported by her family and the remarkable EMBA academic (学术的) team and staff who shaped her experience to be impactful and unforgettable. Outside the classroom, Brandi and Kyle found a lot of moments of connection. “Spending time together, just doing homework on the sofa gave us a lot of time, a lot of things to connect through,” Kyle shared. About this week’s spring graduation ceremony, Brandi said she’s not yet sure how she’ll react on that day, but she knows there will no doubt be tears as she cheers on her son as he walks across the stage. For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever. 4. What made Brandi decide to return to school? A. The invitation from TCU. B. A must for her career advancement. C. A desire to strengthen family relationship. D. Inspiration from her son’s academic journey. 5. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. Adaptation challenges in college. B. Completion of a bachelor’s degree. C. Shared engagement in high education. D. A relocation decision for family bonds. 6. Which of the following can best describe Brandi at college? A. She actively took part in various social activities. B. She put academic excellence before family time. C. She achieved family harmony and academic success. D. She struggled with course demands more than Kyle did. 7. What message does the author want to deliver? A. Age is no wall for a learning call. B. Learning together, bonding stronger. C. Home environment shapes child’s growth.. D. Sharing interests, deepening understanding. C One year ago, in an art competition at the Colorado State Fair in the United States, an artwork created with help from artificial intelligence (AI) called “Théâtre D’opéra Spatial” won the first prize in the digital art category and sparked discussions online. Now, officials with the 151-year-old fair have revised the contest’s rules: Artists must claim whether they used AI to make their entries, reports the Denver Post’s John Wenzel. The saga (事件) began last August, when game designer Jason Allen won the top spot in the fair’s digital arts competition. When he shared his victory online, he mentioned that he’d used Midjourney — an AI program that turns text into images — to help create his piece, titled “Th éâtre D’opéra Spatial”. Allen maintained he was open about using AI from the beginning, though the judges said they didn’t know until after the fact. Either way, claim wasn’t necessary at the time, meaning Allen never broke any rules. His victory was controversial (有争议的) — and now, as a result, officials have decided to tweak the submission requirements. At this year’s fair, which took place in Pueblo between August 26 and September 4, artists needed to “tell if art or artwork was created using an Artificial Intelligence Generator,” according to this year’s requirements. Allen wasn’t happy about the new requirement, telling the Denver Post that it was essentially a “discriminatory mark” against AI artworks. Despite the change, he decided to submit once again to the digital arts category. The fair’s leaders say they plan to continue adapting as technology advances. As ScottStoller, the fair’s general manager, tells the Denver Post, the digital arts category itself has only been around for a few decades. In the future, officials may even decide to add a separate AI category, depending on how popular tools like Midjourney become. “That’s the beauty of art — that it’s always evolving,” says Stoller. “Art can be anything, and anything can be made into art.” 8. What can be learnt about Jason Allen? A. He developed an AI program. B. He revised the rules of an arts contest. C. He won first place in an art competition. D. He was the leader of the Colorado State Fair. 9. What does the underlined word “tweak” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Select. B. Revise. C. Continue. D. Create. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Allen broke the art competition rules. B. Some people thought Allen deserved the victory. C Artists can’t use AI to make their entries. D Th éâtre D’opéra Spatial was completely created by AI. 11. What’s Stoller’s attitude towards the AI artworks? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Approving. D. Unconcerned. D A recent study from the University of Guelph in Canada has revealed a surprising discovery about common eastern bumblebees (大黄蜂): These insects can survive underwater for up to a week. This finding, published in the journal Biology Letters, came about due to an experimental error when researchers placed hibernating (冬眠) queen bumblebees in water and found them alive days later. The discovery has impressed scientists. particularly because bumblebees are land-based creatures not typically associated with water environments. Nigel Raine, a professor in the school of environmental sciences at the university and the study’s lead author, expressed his astonishment at the results. To further explore this phenomenon, Raine and his team conducted an experiment involving 143 hibernating queen bumblebees. They discovered that those placed underwater for up to seven days had similar survival rates to those not, indicating that the bees’ ability to survive such conditions may be more common than previously thought. The research underlines the strength of bumblebees during their hibernation period. a critical phase in their life cycle that has remained largely unexplored. Queen bumblebees typically hibernate alone in small holes during the cold months, which are believed to protect them from flooding. However, this study reveals that these bees possess an unexpected adaptation, allowing them to survive even in flooded conditions. Given these findings, one possible explanation for their survival is diapause, a state of suspended growth and reproduction characterized by reduced oxygen intake. During this state. bumblebees may close their spiracles (气孔) to prevent water from entering their bodies, and they might also breathe through their skin. This energy-saving mode is likely a key factor in their ability to survive beneath the water. Raine emphasized the importance of understanding these mechanisms, as it could have significant implications for the study of wild insects that help with plant reproduction, which are crucial for food security and ecosystem health, His team’s research will aim to determine whether hibernating queens can survive even longer periods underwater and if similar strength exists in other bee species. 12. What do we know about the finding? A. It matched prior beliefs. B. It concerned sea insects. C. It was fully anticipated. D. It was made by accident. 13. What can be inferred about bumblebees from paragraph 3? A. They hibernate in groups for protection. B. They are always protected from flooding. C. They have a hidden adaptation mechanism. D. They reproduce better in flooded conditions. 14. What may Nigel Raine do in the future? A. Secure research patents. B. Prioritize dietary security. C. Conduct further research. D. Raise ecological awareness. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Bumblebee Reproductive Habits B. Bumblebee Hibernation Patterns C. Scientists’ Experimental Methods D. Bumblebee Survival Underwater 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We all have strengths and weaknesses-that’ s completely normal.

Although she is so old, she never realized her dream—she wanted to have a birthday party. She also wished to receive 105 birthday cards, the same number as her age. Lorene Summey is an elderly person at Somerset Court, a nursing home in Cherryville, North Carolina. Two months ago, a worker in the nursing home asked Summey what she would like for her upcoming birthday. “We have an old lady that has a birthday next month and she will be 105 years old! She has never had a big birthday party before, so I asked her several months ago what she would like to do for her birthday. She said she would love to have square dance at her birthday party,” Jodie Lankford wrote in a Facebook post. “I think this wish is not quite too difficult, and we can help her to achieve.” “She explained to us her experiences in her childhood. She said her sister could always go out to enjoy herself but she had to stay home most of the time to take care of the younger ones. She felt unfairly treated by her parents at the time,” she said. “She wanted her hair and makeup done, and she wanted to wear the same dress she wore when she was young.” “She is also concerned about another thing—she doesn’t think she could have 105 birthday cards sent by mail to her for her birthday! I’ve told her that we will have more. I have made her believe that her wish is sure to come true,” Lankford added. Last Friday night, her great birthday party began on the square of the nursing home. The time came for the old lady to realize her wish. 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。 Summey looked especially beautiful that day. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Back to her room, the caregivers showed Summey the birthday cards. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
