第二部分：阅读 第一节：阅读理解 A篇 (旅游介绍) 答案：ADB 导语：说明文 (Expository Writing) / 旅游指南 (Travel Guide)。本文是一篇介绍中国海南岛热门旅游景点的说明文。文章通过分点描述，详细介绍了海口骑楼老街的历史建筑、万宁日月湾的冲浪条件、南山文化旅游区的佛教文化以及分界洲岛独特的气候与文化边界地位，旨在为不同兴趣的游客提供旅行参考。 21. A 解析：细节理解题。题干问“谁最有可能去参观海口的骑楼老街？” 根据“Qilou Old Street, Haikou”部分的内容，它被描述为“中国最令人印象深刻的拱廊建筑”，拥有600年历史，融合了欧亚风格，并有精美的巴洛克式雕刻。这些描述都指向了历史和文化建筑爱好者。因此，A选项“一个渴望探索建筑的历史爱好者”是最佳答案。 22. D 解析：细节理解题。题干问“为什么日月湾在十月到三月是冲浪的理想地点？” 定位至“Riyue Bay, Wanning”部分，原文明确提到“From October to March, rolling two-meter waves crash with power and consistency”（从10月到次年3月，两米高的浪涛汹涌澎湃，力量十足且持续稳定）。D选项“海浪强劲且持续”是原文的同义转述。 23. B 解析：细节理解题。题干问“是什么让分界洲岛独一无二？” 定位至“Boundary Island”部分，首句即说明“Boundary Island... is the climatic boundary between south and north, and the cultural boundary between different ethnic groups...”（分界洲岛是南北的气候分界，也是不同民族的文化分界）。B选项“它是气候和文化的交汇点”准确概括了此意。 B篇 (人物传记) 答案：BDCA B篇 导语：人物传记 (Biography) / 新闻报道 (News Report)。本文讲述了一位名叫庞众望的清华学子的励志故事。文章回顾了他如何在家庭困境中奋发图强，高考取得优异成绩，并重点介绍了他近期被任命为家乡智库专家和文化旅游大使而重返公众视野的事迹，展现了他乐观、坚韧和感恩的品格，并将其品质归功于母亲的深刻影响。 24. B 解析：细节理解题。题干问“庞众望最近重新获得媒体关注的主要原因是什么？” 文章开头明确指出：“has recently been appointed as a think-tank expert and culture-tourism ambassador for his hometown... This appointment has returned him to the public spotlight...”（最近被任命为家乡的智库专家和文化旅游大使……这一任命使他重新回到公众视野）。因此，B选项“他对家乡有了新的责任”是直接原因。 25. D 解析：细节理解题。题干问“庞众望在中学时如何帮助支撑家庭？” 文章第五段末尾提到：“Before the gaokao, while classmates focused solely on studies, Pang collected recyclables to generate family income.”（高考前，当同学们只专注于学习时，庞众望收集可回收物来增加家庭收入）。D选项“通过收集垃圾赚钱”是“collected recyclables”的同义表达。 26. C 解析：细节理解题。题干问“庞众望将哪种品质归功于他母亲的教导？” 文章第六段直接引用庞众望的话：“Pang credits his optimism to his mother's teachings.”（庞众望将他的乐观归功于他母亲的教导）。因此C选项“乐观”正确。 27. A 解析：推理判断题。题干问“关于庞众望，可以从文章中合理推断出什么？” A: 他母亲的态度对他性格的形成起了关键作用。文章多次提到母亲对他的影响，特别是教导他向前看、保持微笑，塑造了他的乐观性格，因此A正确。 B: 他接受了企业家的资助。与原文“declined financial assistance from entrepreneurs”矛盾。 C: 他开始读博后就不再照顾家庭。文中无依据，且从他的责任感来看，不太可能。 D: 最近的任命是他首次获得公众关注。与原文“returned him to the public spotlight years after his initial fame”矛盾，他之前因高考就已出名。 C篇 (科技新闻) 答案：BBDA 导语：科技新闻 (Science and Technology News)。本文报道了中国科学院金属研究所在柔性固态电池技术方面取得的一项重大突破。文章核心在于介绍这种新型电池在安全性、能量密度和柔韧性上的卓越性能，阐述了其关键材料（聚合物电解质）的工作原理，并展望了其在可折叠设备、可穿戴设备和电动汽车等未来电子产品的应用前景。 28. B 解析：细节理解题。题干问“为什么新型电池的性能优于传统锂离子电池？” 文章第二段明确说明：“this new type is safer and can potentially store more energy in the same space”（这种新型电池更安全，并且有可能在相同空间内存储更多能量）。B选项“它具有更好的安全性和更高的能量存储”是原文的完美概括。 29. B 解析：细节理解题。题干问“聚合物基电解质的功能是什么？” 文章第三段指出：“This component is crucial as it enables the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes.”（这个组件至关重要，因为它能使锂离子在正负电极之间移动）。B选项“它影响锂离子在电极间的流动”是原文的同义转述。 30. D 解析：推理判断题。题干问“文中提到的20,000次弯曲测试是为了证明什么？” 文章第五段提到：“they withstood 20,000 bending cycles while maintaining their full performance”（它们承受了20,000次弯曲循环，同时保持了其全部性能）。这表明电池在反复的物理应力下性能稳定。因此D选项“新电池在反复压力下保持其性能”正确。 31. A 解析：主旨大意题。题干问“这篇文章的主要目的是什么？” 全文首段宣布突破，接着介绍新电池的优点、工作原理、测试结果，最后一段展望其应用前景（可折叠设备、可穿戴监测器、电动汽车）。因此，A选项“宣布一项技术突破及其潜在应用”最全面地概括了文章目的。 D篇 (文学作品) 导语：记叙文 (Narrative Writing) / 短篇故事 (Short Story)。本文讲述了一位年迈的灯塔守护人托马斯的故事。面对灯塔即将被自动化系统取代的现实，他在最后一个暴风雨之夜，依然点燃灯塔，履行了自己45年来守护航海者安全的承诺。故事深情歌颂了坚守、责任与传承的精神，以及对旧时代人文价值的怀念。 32. B 解析：词义猜测题。题干问“划线词‘treacherous’在句中最可能是什么意思？” 该词修饰的是“rocks”（礁石），而后面的比喻“like broken teeth”（像断裂的牙齿）以及主人公45年来引导船只通过这些礁石，都暗示了这些礁石非常危险。因此B选项“危险的”最符合语境。 33. A 解析：推理判断题。题干问“托马斯听到自动化系统的消息时感觉如何？” 定位至第五段。文中描述他表面点头，但内心“felt as if the ground had shifted beneath his feet”（感觉脚下的地面仿佛移动了），并质疑机器能否像他一样理解大海。这生动地表现了他内心的动摇、不安和对未来的不确定。因此A选项“对未来感到沮丧和不确定”是最佳描述。 34. C 解析：推理判断题。题干问“倒数第二段的渔船事件主要说明了什么？” 在这个事件中，风暴中的渔船正是依靠灯塔的光束指引，才安全驶入港口。这直接证明了灯塔对于水手的安全是至关重要的。因此C选项“灯塔对水手的重要性”正确。 35. D 解析：主旨大意题。题干问“下列哪项是文章最合适的标题？” 全文的核心人物是托马斯，核心情节是他45年如一日守护灯塔，将其视为一份承诺和责任，即使面临被科技取代的命运，他依然坚守到最后一班岗。他的形象是“坚持的”、“有毅力的”。因此D选项“一位坚韧的灯塔守护人”是最佳标题。A和B只涉及了故事的某个方面（灯塔本身或一个夜晚），C则与文章主旨相悖。 第二节：七选五 答案： 36-40: G D B F A 导语：说明文 (Expository Writing)。本文探讨了文化背景与个人自我认知如何影响人们对音乐中情感的偏好。文章通过引用两项科学研究，指出西方文化背景或独立自我观念强的人更偏好表达负面、疏离情感的歌曲，而东亚文化背景或相互依赖自我观念强的人则更偏好积极、连接情感的歌曲。最后指出，尽管存在这种文化差异，但某些歌曲因其旋律和节奏而能跨越文化壁垒，受到普遍喜爱。 解析： 36. G: 空前提及人们喜欢不同情感类型的歌曲，空后说“这是一个合理的想法”，并开始讨论文化差异。因此，空格处应是一个连接“歌曲情感”和“文化差异”的问题。G选项“不同地方的人喜欢不同的歌曲是因为音乐和歌词中的情感吗？”完美地承上启下。 37. D: 空后提到“关键问题是……”，并且下文开始详细描述“研究1”和“研究2”。因此，空格处最合理的句子是引入这两项研究。D选项“最近的两项研究关注了人们最爱歌曲中的情感”符合语境。 38. B: 空前总结了研究1的发现：不同文化背景和自我认知的人偏好不同的情感音乐。空格处需要一个对研究发现进行评价或总结的句子。B选项“他们之间存在的差异是有意义的”符合逻辑，肯定了研究发现的显著性。 39. F: 空前说研究2中，相互依赖型自我的人依然偏好积极情感。空后说“他们也倾向于积极、连接的情感”，这个“也”字说明空格处的内容与“积极情感”相关，但主语可能不同。F选项“令人惊讶的是，那些具有强烈独立自我的人这次并不偏好负面情感”正好构成转折，并引出后文“他们也……”的发现。 40. A: 空前总结文化背景影响音乐情感偏好。空后说“这只是因为节奏和旋律很抓耳”，这是一个转折，说明有些情况例外。A选项“然而，有些歌曲在任何地方都受欢迎”作为段首主题句，与后文构成“观点-例证”关系，逻辑顺畅。 第三部分：语言知识运用 第一节：完形填空 41-45: B C A B D 46-50: A C B A B 51-55: A D B C D 导语：本文讲述了一位名叫Lexie Alford的年轻旅行者克服重重困难，立志成为世界上最年轻的游历所有国家的人的故事。文章突出了她为实现梦想所面对的签证、财务、健康等挑战，以及她通过个人努力（打工存钱）和外部支持（母亲帮助）来解决问题的经历，最终传达出“只要心怀热情并勇于追求，任何问题都有解决办法”的积极信息。 41. B. achievement 选项：A. hardship（艰辛） B. achievement（成就） C. failure（失败） D. adventure（冒险） 考点：名词辨析与上下文逻辑。 解析：根据后半句“她去过196个国家”可知，这是一个非常了不起的“成就”。虽然“冒险”也与旅行相关，但此处主语是“成为最年轻游历所有国家的人”这件事本身，是一个结果，因此 achievement 最为准确。 42. C. attractive 选项：A. promising（有前途的） B. unwise（不明智的） C. attractive（有吸引力的） D. demanding（要求高的，费力的） 考点：形容词辨析与转折关系。 解析：由连接词“While”和“and exciting”可知，空格处与“exciting”并列，且与后半句的“difficulties”（困难）构成转折。社交媒体上展示的冒险经历应该是“看起来有吸引力和令人兴奋的”。attractive 最符合语境。 43. A. struggles 选项：A. struggles（奋斗，挣扎，困难） B. crises（危机） C. statement（声明） D. losses（损失） 考点：名词辨析与固定搭配。 解析：“financial struggles”是常用搭配，意为“经济困难”。其他选项：B“金融危机”程度过重；C“财务声明”和D“财务损失”均不符合她需要自己筹钱的语境。 44. B. barrier 选项：A. approach（方法，途径） B. barrier（障碍） C. resolution（决心，决议） D. entry（进入，入口） 考点：名词辨析与上下文逻辑。 解析：句意是“对大多数人来说，环游世界的______是缺钱”。缺乏资金显然是一个“障碍”。barrier 准确表达了这层。 45. D. largely 选项：A. roughly（粗略地，大约） B. simply（简单地，仅仅） C. entirely（完全地） D. largely（主要地，大部分地） 考点：副词辨析与语境理解。 解析：句意为“但她设法______靠自己来支付旅行费用”。后文提到她打工存钱，并且母亲也提供了帮助（旅行社优惠），所以她不是“完全地”靠自己，而是“主要地”靠自己。largely 最精确。 46. A. Additionally 选项：A. Additionally（此外，另外） B. Admittedly（诚然，无可否认地） C. Undoubtedly（毫无疑问地） D. Apparently（显然地） 考点：逻辑副词与上下文关系。 解析：前一句讲她靠自己打工，这一句讲她母亲开旅行社也提供了帮助。这是在前一个原因之上，补充另一个有利条件。因此，表示“此外”的 Additionally 最符合这种承上启下的逻辑关系。 47. C. deals 选项：A. guides（导游，指南） B. foods（食物） C. deals（交易，优惠） D. seasons（季节） 考点：名词辨析与常识。 解析：经营旅行社的母亲能帮到她的，自然是找到最划算的机票、酒店“优惠”（deals），这样才能“节省开支”。其他选项与“省钱”的关联性不强。 48. B. contributing to 选项：A. resulting from（由……引起） B. contributing to（有助于，导致） C. accounting for（解释，占比例） D. turning to（求助于） 考点：动词短语辨析与因果关系。 解析：找到优惠并提前预订，这个行为是“因”，节省开支是“果”。空格处需要表示“导致、促成”某个结果的短语。contributing to 意为“对……做出贡献”，引申为“有助于实现”，符合语境。 49. A. prioritized 选项：A. prioritized（优先考虑） B. promoted（促进，晋升） C. improved（改进） D. ignored（忽略） 考点：动词辨析与语境理解。 解析：作为一名独自旅行的女性，“安全”必然是她在决定停留时长时“优先考虑”的因素。prioritized 准确地表达了这个概念。 50. B. reasonable 选项：A. tight（紧张的） B. reasonable（合理的，不贵的） C. independent（独立的） D. secure（安全的） 考点：形容词辨析与上下文逻辑。 解析：前半句说“有很多事情可做”，后半句的“and”表示并列，说明还有办法让这些旅行在财务上变得“可承受”或“划算”。reasonable 可以形容价格公道、合理。 51. A. exploring 选项：A. exploring（探索） B. choosing（选择） C. recommending（推荐） D. approaching（接近，接洽） 考点：动词辨析与旅行语境。 解析：在一个国家“花费更多时间”的目的自然是“探索”这个国家。exploring 是最符合旅行语境的动词。 52. D. safely 选项：A. freely（自由地） B. randomly（随机地） C. aimlessly（无目的地） D. safely（安全地） 考点：副词辨析与上下文呼应。 解析：前半句提到“没有预算来采取适当的安全预防措施”，那么其直接后果就是无法“安全地”在这些国家旅行。safely 与前文的“security precautions”形成直接呼应。 53. B. rewarding 选项：A. dangerous（危险的） B. rewarding（有回报的，值得的） C. challenging（有挑战性的） D. worthless（无价值的） 考点：形容词辨析与作者态度。 解析：尽管有时会感到孤独，但她认为独自旅行是一种每个人都应该至少体验一次的经历。这表明她对这种经历的评价是积极的。rewarding（有回报的）最能体现这种积极态度。 54. C. sacrifices 选项：A. contributions（贡献） B. advances（进步，预付款） C. sacrifices（牺牲） D. connections（联系，人脉） 考点：名词辨析与语境理解。 解析：环游世界需要放弃很多，比如稳定的生活、金钱、时间等。这些放弃的东西就是“牺牲”。sacrifices 准确地概括了这种付出。 55. D. passionate 选项：A. embarrassed（尴尬的） B. concerned（关心的，担忧的） C. guilty（愧疚的） D. passionate（热情的，充满激情的） 考点：形容词辨析与固定搭配。 解析：“be passionate about”是固定搭配，意为“对……充满热情”。句意是：如果你对某事真正充满热情，只需要勇气去追求它。其他选项均不能表达这种强烈的热爱和驱动力。 第二节：语法填空 导语：说明文 (Expository Writing)。本文介绍了中国“雪都”阿勒泰地区的自然文化魅力及其作为跨境贸易与文化交流枢纽的角色。文章通过一对中俄夫妇（Jima和Guan Xinlan）在阿勒泰北屯市成功经营烧烤餐厅的具体事例，说明了该地区便利的通关政策、互免签证协议以及日益繁荣的旅游业如何为当地居民创造美好生活并带来新的发展机遇。 答案： 56. borders 57. to 58. is distinguished 59. affectionately 60. where 61. accessible 62. Since 63. brought 64. fulfilling 65. a 解析： 56. borders 考点：动词的时态和主谓一致。 解析：句子主语是“Altay”（阿勒泰），为单数第三人称。 本句描述的是一个客观的地理事实，应使用一般现在时。动词“border”（与...接壤）需要变为第三人称单数形式，即 borders。 57. To 考点：固定搭配。 解析：“From... to...” 是英语中表示“从……到……”范围的固定介词搭配。句子结构为“From the clean undeveloped Kanas Lake ... ___57___ the majestic landscapes...”（从纯净未开发的喀纳斯湖……到壮丽的可可托海风光……）。 58. is distinguished 考点：动词的语态（被动语态）。 解析：句子主语是“this land”（这片土地），它与动词“distinguish”（使杰出，使著名）之间的关系是被动的，即“这片土地被其自然美景和文化遗产所区分/著称”。描述客观事实，用一般现在时。因此，使用一般现在时的被动语态：is distinguished。 59. Affectionately 考点：词性转换（形容词→副词）。 解析：空格后面是过去分词“known”，修饰分词需要用副词。形容词“affectionate”（深情的）对应的副词形式是 affectionately（亲切地），意为“被亲切地称为Jima”。 60. Where 考点：定语从句关系词。 解析：分析句子结构：“Their story began at the Jeminay Port ___60___ a long-standing border crosses...”（他们的故事开始于吉木乃口岸，______一个历史悠久的边境线穿过……）。空格后面是一个完整的句子（a long-standing border crosses...），它用来修饰前面的地点名词“Jeminay Port”。 因此，这是一个定语从句，先行词是表地点的“port”，且在从句中作地点状语，故应用关系副词 where。 61. accessible 考点：词性转换（动词→形容词）。 解析：空格前是“the most”（最高级的标志），后面是名词“gateways”（门户）。这里需要用一个形容词来修饰“gateways”，构成“最……的门户”之意。动词“access”（进入，使用）的形容词形式是 accessible，意为“易接近的，可进入的”，符合句意“最易通行的门户之一”。 62. Since 考点：状语从句连接词。 解析：主句时态是“has regained”（现在完成时），从句时间状语是“it reopened more than 30 years ago”（一个过去的时间点）。“Since”（自从……以来）引导时间状语从句时，主句常用现在完成时，表示从过去某个时间点开始持续到现在的动作或状态。这完全符合本句的语境。 63. brought 考点：动词的时态（一般过去时）。 解析：句子前半部分使用了倒装结构“Not only did he teach...”，其中的“did teach”明确了一般过去时的语境。 “not only... but also...” 连接的两个并列成分时态应保持一致。因此，“bring”也应用一般过去时 brought。 64. fulfilling 考点：词性转换（动词→形容词）。 解析：空格前是冠词“a”，后面是名词“life”。这里需要一个形容词来修饰“life”，意为“一个……的生活”。动词“fulfil”（实现，满足）的形容词形式是 fulfilling，意为“令人满足的，充实的”，完美表达“口岸的繁荣为……奠定了充实生活的基础”。 65. a 考点：冠词。 解析：空格后的核心名词是“destination”（目的地），为可数名词单数。这里表示“一个”文化和旅游目的地，是泛指。“cultural”以辅音音素开头，故使用不定冠词 a。 第四部分：写作 第一节：短文写作 参考范文： Should We Be Polite to AI? Opinions are divided on whether we should be polite to AI. Personally, I believe that while it's not a necessity, demonstrating politeness towards AI is a meaningful practice. Firstly, AI lacks consciousness and emotions, so it doesn't require or comprehend courtesy in the way humans do. However, the way we interact with AI can shape our own habits. Using "please" and "thank you" when giving commands to voice assistants can help reinforce our habitual use of polite language in human interactions. Secondly, as AI becomes more integrated into daily life and sophisticated in its responses, a polite tone can make the human-machine interaction feel smoother and more pleasant. Ultimately, being polite to AI costs us nothing but helps cultivate a more respectful and considerate communication style, which benefits our social relationships. 第二节：读后续写 参考范文： Lila pushed her sketchbook toward him, her voice steady. "We used to be a great team. Your perspective was always what made our art special. Maybe... we can fix this together, like we used to?" Jake hesitated, his eyes flickering from the sketchbook to her sincere face. Slowly, he reached for his own brush. They began to work not as two separate individuals, but as one unit again. Lila softened the harsh lines of his mountains with delicate wildflowers, while Jake added depth and shadow to her foreground, making the flowers truly bloom. The silence was no longer cold but filled with the focused energy of shared creation. When the supervisor arrived the next day, both Lila and Jake held their breath. He studied the mural intently, his gaze tracing the seamless blend of the majestic mountains and the vibrant meadow. A smile finally spread across his face. "Remarkable! The way these elements complement each other shows true synergy and understanding." Lila felt a wave of relief and looked at Jake. He met her eyes, offering a genuine, small smile. They had created more than just a piece of art for the library; they had rebuilt the bridge of their friendship, stronger than before. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026 届高三上学期 10 月学情调研 英语试题 命题单位：江苏省扬中高级中学 南京十三中 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 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) 请听下面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.

B Pang Zhongwang, a 26-year-old PhD candidate in precision instruments at Tsinghua University, has recently been appointed as a think-tank expert and culture-tourism ambassador for his hometown Wuqiao County, Hebei Province. This appointment has returned him to the public spotlight years after his initial fame. Pang first gained national attention in 2017 when he scored an impressive 684/750 in the gaokao despite significant family challenges. His father lives with schizophrenia while his mother had lower limb disability. His outstanding performance earned him admission to the prestigious Tsinghua University. Despite media portrayals of his financial struggles, Pang notably declined financial assistance from entrepreneurs. He's now excelling in his PhD program, having published several papers in peer-reviewed journals. Tragically, Pang's mother, who had the greatest influence on his life, passed away in 2020 at 48. "I found it hard to express my feelings to my mother when she was alive," Pang recalled. "I might have told her, 'Look, I'm doing pretty well.'" From childhood, Pang shouldered household responsibilities and cared for his parents. His grandparents provided primary financial support. Sometimes he borrowed from neighbors for his mother's medical expenses. Before the gaokao, while classmates focused solely on studies, Pang collected recyclables to generate family income. His mother once told media: "This child is my greatest hope. I never studied, so I deeply respect educated people. I just urged him to study hard."Pang credits his optimism to his mother's teachings. "She always encouraged looking forward. She smiled daily, so why should I dwell on sadness?" His recent speech declaration—"Our generation's mission is to serve the country through scientific research"—became a social media sensation. Online comments praise him as an inspiration for disadvantaged youth. 24. What is the main reason for which Pang regained media attention recently? A. He has published groundbreaking research. B. He has new responsibilities for his hometown. C. He gave a viral speech at Tsinghua University. D. He started a charity for disadvantaged youth. 25. How did Pang help support his family in his middle school? A. By getting financial aid from entrepreneurs. B. By relying on his grandparents’ support. C. By borrowing money from neighbors. D. By collecting garbage to earn money. 26. Which quality does Pang credit to his mother's teaching? A. Independence B. Intelligence C. Optimism D. Persistence 27. What can be reasonably inferred from the passage about Pang Zhongwang? A. His mother’s attitude played a key role in shaping his personality. B. He accepted help from entrepreneurs for his education at Tsinghua. C. He stopped taking care of his family after he started his PhD program. D. His recent appointment marked his first time to receive public attention. C A research team from the Institute of Metal Research (IMR) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences has recently announced a significant breakthrough. They have developed a new type of flexible solid-state battery that can be bent an incredible 20,000 times without significant loss of charge capacity. The findings were published in the renowned scientific journal Advanced Materials in October 2025. This innovation represents a major advance for solid-state lithium batteries. Compared to the traditional lithium-ion batteries in widespread use today, this new type is safer and can potentially store more energy in the same space. The breakthrough centers on a special material engineered by the scientists—a polymer-based electrolyte. This component is crucial as it enables the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. The team skillfully designed this polymer to incorporate two key functional elements: ethoxy groups, which facilitate rapid ion transport, and short sulfur chains, which are essential for energy storage. By integrating these two functions at the molecular level, the researchers successfully overcame a common major challenge in solid-state batteries: the high resistance and poor contact at the electrode-electrolyte interface, which typically limits performance. In laboratory tests, batteries incorporating this new material demonstrated a remarkable 86% increase in energy density in their composite cathodes. Crucially, they withstood 20,000 bending cycles while maintaining their full performance. This combination of exceptional flexibility, high energy storage, and greater safety opens up exciting possibilities for future electronics. It paves the way for truly bendable devices, such as foldable smartphones, advanced wearable health monitors, and more durable power sources for electric vehicles. 28. Why does the new type of battery outperform traditional lithium-ion batteries? A. It can be produced at a much lower cost. B. It has better security and higher energy storage. C. It can be recharged in a significantly shorter time. D. It has the advantage of a longer overall lifespan. 29. What is the function of the polymer-based electrolyte? A. It can be used as the main source of electrical energy. B. It affects the flow of lithium ions between the electrodes. C. It helps integrate ethoxy groups and short sulfur chains. D. It will replace the cathode in the battery structure. 30. What is the 20,000 bending cycles test mentioned to demonstrate ? A. The new battery is ready for immediate mass production. B. The new battery has convinced users of its efficiency. C. The new battery meets the strict standards of smart phone makers. D. The new battery maintains its performance under repeated stress. 31.

To explain the working principles of solid-state lithium batteries. D. To trace the historical development of battery technology. D Thomas stood on the weathered stone steps of the coastal lighthouse, his rough hands gripping the rusted rail. At 72, his hair had faded to the color of sea foam, but his eyes still held the sharp light of someone who’d spent decades reading the ocean’s moods. For 45 years, he’d tended this lighthouse, guiding ships through the treacherous rocks that stuck out like broken teeth from the gray water below. “Another storm coming,” he muttered, straining his eyes at the dark clouds rolling in from the horizon. As a boy, Thomas had visited the lighthouse with his father, who’d been a fisherman. He still remembered the way his father’s voice had softened when he spoke of the keeper: “He’s the eyes of the coast, Tom. Without him, we’d be lost.” Those words had stuck with Thomas, and when the old keeper retired 45 years ago, he’d taken the job without hesitation. Over the years, he’d seen it all: ships narrowly avoiding disaster, sailors waving from decks as they passed, even a family of seagulls that had nested in the lighthouse’s tower for three summers. But the lighthouse wasn’t just a job to him—it was a promise. A promise to keep the sea’s travelers safe, to honor the father he’d lost to a storm decades earlier. Last month, the town council had visited with news: they planned to replace the lighthouse with an automated system. “It’s more efficient,” they’d said, their voices polite but firm. Thomas had nodded, but inside, a part of him felt as if the ground had shifted beneath his feet. How could a machine understand the sea the way he did? That night, as the storm hit, Thomas climbed the narrow spiral staircase to the lantern room. He lit the old oil lamp—something he hadn’t done in years, since the electric bulb was installed—and watched as its warm glow spilled over the rolling waves. For a moment, he felt like a boy again, standing beside his father, listening to the sea’s song. Down below, a small fishing boat appeared, its lights flickering in the storm. Thomas held his breath, watching as the boat’s captain steered toward the harbor, guided by the lighthouse’s beam. When the boat safely reached shore, he let out a sigh, a small smile at his lips. Maybe the automated system would come. Maybe the lighthouse would fall quiet. But Thomas knew that some promises—like the one he’d made to his father, to the sea, to the sailors who relied on him—would never fade. 32. What does the underlined word “treacherous” most likely mean in the sentence? A. Rough. B. Dangerous. C. Slippery. D. Uncommon. 33. How did Thomas feel when he heard about the automated system? A. Upset and uncertain about the future. B. Indifferent to the council’s decision. C. Excited about the new technology. D. Angry and ready to fight the plan. 34. What does the fishing boat incident in the last paragraph but one mainly show? A. The danger of sailing in storms. B. Thomas’ skill in operating the oil lamp. C. The importance of the lighthouse to sailors. D. The council’s mistake in replacing the lighthouse. 35. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the passage? A. An Unforgettable Coastal Lighthouse. B. A Stormy Night at the Lighthouse. C. An Advanced Automated System. D. A Persistent Lighthouse Keeper. 第二节：（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Some people like songs that sound rough and intense, with lyrics about anger and rebellion. Other people prefer songs that sound bright and hopeful, with lyrics about love and gratitude. 36 ______ This is a reasonable idea, because many studies show that cultures differ in how people feel and talk about emotions. For example, in many East Asian societies, people often focus on emotions between people, such as affection, anger, and embarrassment. In many Western societies, people often focus more on emotions inside the self, such as pride, guilt, and anxiety. ______ 37 ______ The key question was: Is a person's cultural background related to the emotions in their favorite music? Study 1 used an online survey with hundreds of people from many countries. First, participants named a favorite song and marked the emotions it showed on a checklist. They also completed a scale that measures whether someone sees themselves as independent or interdependent. In general, people in Western countries and people with a strong independent self preferred songs with negative, socially distancing emotions like anger and disappointment. People in East Asian countries and people with a strong interdependent self preferred songs with positive, socially connecting emotions like joy, love, and gratitude. ______ 38 ______ Study 2 was a listening task with university students in three countries. Students chose a favorite song, listened carefully, and reported the emotions and how strong they were. Again, those with a strong interdependent self preferred positive, connecting emotions. ______ 39 ______ They also leaned toward positive, connecting emotions. One possible reason is that many popular songs at that time focused on love and connection. Bottom line: Our cultural upbringing—and whether we see ourselves as independent or connected—can shape the emotions we enjoy in music. ___40___ It’s simply because the rhythm and melody are catchy, even if we do not understand the words. A. However, some songs are loved everywhere. B. The differences that existed between them were meaningful. C. Therefore, we should all listen to music from different cultures. D. Two recent studies looked at emotions in people's favorite songs. E. The studies found that music preferences are entirely determined by culture. F. Surprisingly, those with a strong independent self did not prefer negative emotions this time. G. Do people in different places like different songs because of the emotions in the music and the lyrics? 第三部分 语言知识运用 (共两节，满分 30 分) 第一节 (共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分) Lexie Alford, 21, said she recently became the youngest person to visit every country.

They’d once been inseparable, spending weekends sketching in the park and debating color palettes（调色板）。But that changed after the regional art contest. Lila won with a portrait Jake had helped her refine, yet she’d forgotten to mention his contribution in her acceptance speech. He’d stopped talking to her the next day. Now Jake stared at his sneakers, jaw set. “I guess we should split the work,” he said flatly when they met after class. “You do the foreground, I’ll handle the background.” No arguments, no warmth—just a wall as thick as the canvas they’d be painting. Three days later, Lila stared at her half-finished flowers, feeling hollow. Jake’s mountainscape in the corner was technically perfect, but it lacked the softness she knew he could capture. That afternoon, rain drummed against the library windows as they worked in silence. Then Lila heard a sharp intake of breath. She turned to see Jake staring at her sketchbook, which had fallen open to a page dated six months earlier—their joint draft of the contest portrait, with his pencil marks still visible. His face paled. “You kept this?” he whispered. Before Lila could reply, Ms. Henderson hurried in. “Bad news—the mural needs to be finished tomorrow. The district supervisor is coming.” She left, and the room fell silent again. Jake ran a hand through his hair, looking defeated. “Mine’s not done. I messed up the perspective.” 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。 Lila pushed her sketchbook toward him, her voice steady. When the supervisor arrived the next day, both Lila and Jake held their breath. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
