Want to reduce the use of dangerous chemicals in your everyday life, around children, and food products? The latest invention has made a major breakthrough. A U.S. Patent has been issued for this principle that uniquely uses the wiring (线路) in a home, restaurant, office, or any building with electric wiring within the walls. The patented technology drives unwelcome mice and roaches (蟑螂) away without killing them — a humane way to get rid of pests. Riddex® Plus is so safe; it’s listed with Underwriters Laboratories, the Environmental Protection Agency. How does it work? Just plug the device into an outlet (插座) and this technology starts working by changing the normal field around your wiring, creating an environment that aids in the control of mice and roaches. ● Green Light — Indicates Riddex® Plus is on. ● Red Light — Indicates if the cycle is on or off. The red light will shine for 3 minutes and turn off for 3 minutes. The cycle will continuously repeat as long as Riddex® Plus is plugged in. ● Blue Light — Push the button on top to turn on/ off the night light. How quickly will I see results? The device has its maximum effectiveness within the first seven days. Offer details: Order Riddex® Plus for only $29.95. And today, as part of our special offer, you’re lucky to receive a second Riddex® Plus for FREE. Just pay the $8.95 to cover shipping. 1. What is special about Riddex® Plus? A. It can kill roaches.

To show that the device is powered on. B. To signal the device has full effectiveness. C. To control the on-off state of the night light. D. To indicate the working cycle of the device. 3. How much should be paid to get two devices of Riddex® Plus? A. $8.95. B. $29.95. C. $38.90. D. $59.90. 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是应用文。文章介绍了一种利用电路而不是化学药剂驱虫的设备。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Just plug the device into an outlet (插座) and this technology starts working by changing the normal field around your wiring, creating an environment that aids in the control of mice and roaches.(只需将设备插入插座即可，这样该技术就会开始运作，它会改变你线路周围的正常电场，从而营造出一种有助于控制老鼠和蟑螂的环境。)”可知，该装置使用电路原理驱逐害虫，因此可知它的特点是不含化学药剂。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Red Light — Indicates if the cycle is on or off. The red light will shine for 3 minutes and turn off for 3 minutes. The cycle will continuously repeat as long as Riddex® Plus is plugged in. (红灯——指示循环是否开启或关闭。红灯会亮起3分钟，然后熄灭3分钟。只要 Riddex® Plus 电源插好，循环就会持续重复。)”可知，红灯亮三分钟，然后熄灭三分钟，循环往复，因此推断表示装置的工作周期。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Order Riddex® Plus for only $29.95. And today, as part of our special offer, you’re lucky to receive a second Riddex® Plus for FREE. Just pay the $8.95 to cover shipping.(而且今天，作为我们特别优惠活动的一部分，您将有幸免费获得第二份 Riddex® Plus。只需支付 8.95 美元即可支付运费。)”可知第二个免费，但要付8.95运输费，故答案为C。 B When I was in middle school, the best way that I could describe myself was as a parents’ worst nightmare: I didn’t care about my education, didn’t do my homework and always slept in class. My score was so bad that I still don’t know how I did. I had my reasons for why I didn’t do my best— video games. When I was a teenager playing Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed series, I definitely wasn’t looking to learn things. But with 11 main AC games all set during different times and places in history— like ancient Egypt and Greece—I was bound to learn something, even if just by accident. And I definitely did. One day, my history teacher passed out blank maps of the Caribbean. It was a quiz I had forgotten about. We had to label countries and major cities. Luckily, I’d been playing a lot of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, which was set in the Caribbean during the golden age of piracy in the early 18th century. So I was able to draw on my life as a pirate to fill in the map, and I got an A. Ubisoft did a lot of research to recreate ancient Egypt in the game, and they released an educational discovery tour for each game that lets you look around the environment with no violence, enemies, or time constraints (限制). You can learn about the Olympic Games, and how Sparta trained its soldiers in ancient Greece with real historical figures acting as your tour guides, or jump over to ancient Egypt to check out mummies (木乃伊) and climb on the pyramids. Obviously, Assassin’s Creed can’t teach you everything you need to know about the ancient world, but the game does make that world come alive for people who are reluctant to learn, like I was. So, take advantage of these things and your learning should be as enjoyable as possible. 4. Which of the following can best describe the author in middle school? A. A tough nut. B. A black sheep. C. A dark horse. D. A wet blanket. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. The history test was quite easy. B. Pirates were good at map filling. C. The author owed his A to the game. D. He regrets wasting so much time on games. 6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Many students are addicted to video games. B. Learning history is necessary for school students. C. Experiential learning is a powerful way of learning. D. Ubisoft accomplishes the educational purpose in its games. 7. What does the author want to convey through the text? A. Playing computer games is harmful to us. B. Games don’t necessarily prevent learning. C. The drawbacks of video games can be minimized. D. Bad grades in school won’t keep you from success. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，作者通过自身经历讲述了电子游戏《刺客信条》如何意外地帮助他学习历史知识，并指出游戏可以成为有趣的学习工具。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第1段“When I was in middle school, the best way that I could describe myself was as a parents’ worst nightmare: I didn’t care about my education, didn’t do my homework and always slept in class. My score was so bad that I still don’t know how I did.(在我上中学的时候，我对自己最贴切的描述就是：是父母最头疼的孩子。我根本不重视学业，不做作业，还在课堂上睡觉。我的成绩太差了，至今我都搞不清楚自己到底考了多少分。)”可知，作者在中学时，不关心学业、不写作业、总在课堂上睡觉，是父母最糟糕的噩梦，因此推断作者中学时是“问题学生” 。 故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Luckily, I’d been playing a lot of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, which was set in the Caribbean during the golden age of piracy in the early 18th century. So I was able to draw on my life as a pirate to fill in the map, and I got an A.(幸运的是，我之前玩了很多《刺客信条：黑旗》这款游戏，该游戏的故事背景设定在18 世纪初海盗活动最为兴盛的加勒比海地区。因此，我能够凭借自己作为海盗的经历来完善地图，最终还获得了“A”的成绩。)”可知，幸运的是，作者玩了《黑旗》游戏，懂得许多地理知识，因此填对了地图并得了A ，因此可知，游戏知识帮助作者通过考试。故选C。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第4段内容“Ubisoft did a lot of research to recreate ancient Egypt in the game, and they released an educational discovery tour for each game that lets you look around the environment with no violence, enemies, or time constraints (限制). You can learn about the Olympic Games, and how Sparta trained its soldiers in ancient Greece with real historical figures acting as your tour guides, or jump over to ancient Egypt to check out mummies (木乃伊) and climb on the pyramids.( Ubisoft公司在游戏中对古埃及进行了大量还原工作，并为每一款游戏都推出了一个教育性的探索之旅，让您可以在没有暴力、没有敌人、也没有时间限制的情况下游览游戏中的环境。您可以了解古代奥运会的相关内容，还可以在古希腊的斯巴达了解士兵的训练方式，届时会有真实的历史人物担任您的导游。或者您也可以前往古埃及，参观木乃伊并登上金字塔。)”可知，第四段主要描述Ubisoft在游戏中融入教育功能，如教育探索模式，学习奥运会知识，查看木乃伊等等，说明游戏实现了教育目的。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Obviously, Assassin’s Creed can’t teach you everything you need to know about the ancient world, but the game does make that world come alive for people who are reluctant to learn, like I was. So, take advantage of these things and your earning should be as enjoyable as possible.(显然，《刺客信条》并不能教会你关于古代世界的所有知识，但这款游戏确实能让那些不愿学习的人（比如我之前就是这种情况）感受到那个古老世界的魅力。所以，充分利用这些元素，你的获得就能尽可能地充满乐趣了。)”可知，游戏让历史生动起来，充分利用这些元素，学习会应尽可能有趣，并结合全文可推断，全文通过作者经历传递的核心信息是：游戏未必阻碍学习。故选B。 C Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. A transplant (移植) is the only treatment available to patients with end-stage heart failure, but there is a severe shortage of heart donors. That means there’s an urgent need to develop new ways to regenerate a diseased heart. Now the good news is that the world’s first complete 3D-printed heart, made using the patient’s own cells and materials, has been created in a lab. Until now, success has been limited to printing only simple tissues without blood vessels (血管). “This is the first time anyone has successfully printed an entire heart anywhere,” said team leader Tal Dvir. The 3D-printed heart is only about a third the size of an actual human heart and it doesn’t actually work. But it’s a groundbreaking step toward engineering customized (定制的) organs that can be transplanted with less risk of rejection. Dvir noted that scientists have managed to print a 3D structure of a heart before, but not with cells or blood vessels. The use of biological materials from a patient is key to successful engineering of tissues and organs. Ideally, the biomaterial should possess the same biochemical and mechanical properties of the patients’ own tissues. This way, their bodies will be less likely to reject the organ, making transplants much safer. While the 3D-printed heart is about a third the size of a human heart, the same technology can be used to print a normal-sized one. The team’s next step is to culture (培养) printed hearts in the lab and “teach them to behave” like real hearts. Then, researchers plan to transplant the 3D-printed heart into lab animals. “Our results demonstrate the potential of our approach to engineering personalized tissue and organ replacement in the future,” Dvir said. “Maybe in 10 years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world, and these procedures will be conducted routinely.” 8. What can be inferred from the world’s first complete 3D-printed heart? A. It makes organ transplants risk-free. B. It bridges gaps in biological organ printing. C. It solves the donor shortage for heart transplants. D. It has the same properties as natural heart tissues. 9. What does Dvir imply about the previous 3D-printed heart structures in paragraph 3? A. They were ready for transplant to animals. B. They matched the size of real human hearts. C. They lacked cell-based biological components. D. They contained complete blood vessel networks. 10. What will Dvir’s team do in the future? A. They will first test printed hearts on humans. B. They will focus on curing early heart failure. C. They will change the biological materials used. D. They will improve the heart’s functional performance. 11. What’s Dvir’s attitude towards the 3D printing technology? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Indifferent. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇科技类说明文，主要介绍了世界上首个利用患者自身细胞和材料3D打印的完整心脏的突破性进展，并展望了该技术在器官移植领域的应用前景。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Until now, success has been limited to printing only simple tissues without blood vessels (血管). “This is the first time anyone has successfully printed an entire heart anywhere,” said team leader Tal Dvir.(到目前为止，所取得的成果仅仅是能够打印出不含血管的简单组织。团队负责人塔尔·德维尔表示：“这是首次有人在某地成功打印出完整的心脏。”)”可知，这是首次有人成功打印出完整心脏，此前仅能打印无血管的简单组织，因此推断该成果填补了生物器官打印的空白。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Dvir noted that scientists have managed to print a 3D structure of a heart before, but not with cells or blood vessels.( Dvir指出，科学家们此前确实曾成功打印出心脏的三维结构，但所使用的并非细胞和血管。)”可知，科学家此前打印的心脏结构不含细胞或血管，说明过去的打印结构缺乏生物细胞成分。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“The team’s next step is to culture (培养) printed hearts in the lab and “teach them to behave” like real hearts.(该团队接下来的步骤是在实验室中培养打印心脏，并“教会它们像真正的心脏那样运作”。)”可知，团队下一步将培养打印心脏并教会它们像真实心脏一样工作，因此推断他们将改善心脏的功能性能。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末段Dvir的发言““Our results demonstrate the potential of our approach to engineering personalized tissue and organ replacement in the future,” Dvir said. “Maybe in 10 years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world, and these procedures will be conducted routinely.”(Dvir说“我们的研究结果表明，我们的方法在实现个性化组织和器官替换方面具有潜在应用价值。也许在十年后，世界各地顶尖的医院里将会配备器官打印设备，相关手术也将成为常规操作。”)”可知，我们的成果展示了未来个性化器官替代的潜力，及对10年后器官打印机普及的乐观预测，可见其态度是积极肯定的。故选A。 D When the Derby Arboretum, one of the first public parks in England, opened in 1840, it was only open to the public on Sundays and Wednesdays. For the rest of the week, its fountains and pathways were reserved for paying customers, whose entry fees effectively supported the park. The system was scrapped in 1882, as the growing concern for public health among Victorian reformers sped up the creation of open public parks in towns and cities across England. Anyone can now walk through the Derby Arboretum. But another form of gatekeeping is taking place in parks today. Councils that have seen their budgets severely reduced due to financial challenges are finding ways to turn parks into cash-generating properties, often by renting stretches of the land to fenced-off commercial events. These deals can be mutually (互相) beneficial, particularly when the park is sizable and locals are consulted. They can also seem like a destructive form of temporary privatization. Earlier this month, Haringey Council in north London rented part of Finsbury Park to Tough Mudder, a popular obstacle (障碍) course and run for adults. Initiatives that encourage outdoor exercise are welcome, but the size and nature of the event drew criticism after hundreds of racers turned the field into a sea of mud and damaged a community orchard (果园). Races and festivals generate income that councils can reinvest in park maintenance, but they can also wall off areas of parkland, making them less accessible for locals. The reliance on commercial income isn’t limited to London. Residents in Swansea and Manchester have complained about frequent fenced-off events. Councils find themselves in a difficult position. Parks are a non-essential service, and so they are at risk of cost-cutting. Income from events has become an increasingly important source of income. For councils that cannot make their parks pay, the risk is a thinning of local facilities and declining public space. Parks are one of the last areas of truly public space. They offer us fresh air and comfort, space to breathe and exercise. Councils should not have to depend on commercial income to safeguard their future. 12. What does the underlined word “scrapped” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Simplified. B. Designed. C. Abandoned. D. Detailed. 13. Why was Tough Mudder criticized? A. It refused to consult the council. B. It designed inadequate obstacle courses. C. It involved quite a few local racers. D. It had an unfavourable environmental impact. 14. What is the concern about the reliance on commercial income for parks? A. Insufficient event facilities. B. Reduced parkland accessibility. C. Decreased park maintenance. D. Lack of interest from residents. 15. What is the author’s opinion on parks? A. They should be truly for everyone. B. They should be funded by councils. C. They should be protected by park-goers. D. They should enhance community engagement. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了英国公共公园的历史变迁及当前面临的商业化问题。文章通过德比植物园的例子，指出公园从部分收费到全面开放的转变，以及如今因财政压力导致的商业化趋势，并探讨了这种趋势对公众使用公园的影响。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线句后文“Anyone can now walk through the Derby Arboretum.( 现在任何人都可以进入德比植物园)”可知，划线句“The system was scrapped in 1882”表示该系统在1882年被废除，“scrapped”指原有的收费制度被“废除”。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Earlier this month, Haringey Council in north London rented part of Finsbury Park to Tough Mudder, a popular obstacle (障碍) course and run for adults. Initiatives that encourage outdoor exercise are welcome, but the size and nature of the event drew criticism after hundreds of racers turned the field into a sea of mud and damaged a community orchard (果园).(本月早些时候，伦敦北部的哈林区议会将芬斯伯里公园的一部分场地租给了“Tough Mudder”赛事组织方。该赛事是一项颇受欢迎的成人障碍赛跑活动。鼓励户外运动的举措是值得欢迎的，但该活动的规模和性质却引发了批评。因为数百名参赛者将场地变成了泥泞的海洋，并损坏了一处社区果园。)”可知，活动的规模和性质引发批评，因参赛者将场地变成泥海并破坏了社区果园，因此批评的原因是活动对环境造成了负面影响。 故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段的“Races and festivals generate income that councils can reinvest in park maintenance, but they can also wall off areas of parkland, making them less accessible for locals.(各种赛事和节日能带来收入，这些收入可以被市政部门用于公园的维护工作，但同时这些活动也可能将公园的部分区域封闭起来，从而减少了市民对这些区域的访问便利性。)”可知，收入可以用于公园的维护，但是围起部分公园区域使当地人更难进入，因此可知依赖商业收入的担忧是公园可进入性降低。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Parks are one of the last areas of truly public space. They offer us fresh air and comfort, space to breathe and exercise. Councils should not have to depend on commercial income to safeguard their future.(公园是为数不多的真正属于公众的公共空间之一。它们为我们提供了清新的空气和舒适的环境，为我们提供了放松和锻炼的空间。政府不应依赖商业收入来保障公园的未来发展。)”可知，作者认为公园是最后的真正公共空间之一，议会不应依赖商业收入来保障其未来，因此推断作者认为公园应真正为所有人服务。故选A。 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。 Simon Sinek is the third most-watched TED Talks presenter of all time. Here are his top three secrets about delivering speeches. ____16____ Often people give talks to sell products or ideas. Sinek calls these kinds of speakers takers, and he says the audience can see through these people right away. “We are highly social animals,” says Sinek. “We can tell if you’re a giver or a taker, and people are more likely to trust a giver than a taker.” ____17____ Sinek says, “Scanning is your worst enemy. While it looks like you’re looking at everyone, it actually disconnects you from your audience.” It would be much easier and more effective, he says, if you directly look at specific audience members throughout your speech. “It’s like you’re having a conversation with your audience,” says Sinek. “____18____” This method not only creates a deeper connection with individuals but the entire audience can feel it. Turn nervousness into excitement. ____19____ A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question, “Were you nervous?” And all of the athletes gave the same answer: “No. I was excited.” These competitors changed their nervousness into excitement. ____20____ Then you should say to yourself, “I’m not nervous. I’m excited” “It really has a great effect on helping you change your attitude,” Sinek says. A. Show up to give, not to take. B. Say thank you when you’re done. C. You’re not speaking at them, but speaking with them. D. Make eye contact with audience members one by one. E. Sinek learned this method from watching the Olympics. F. You should practice speaking in public as often as possible. G. When you’re up on stage, you will possibly go through the same thing. 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. C 19. E 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了Simon Sinek关于演讲的三个秘诀，包括演讲的目的、眼神交流的技巧以及如何将紧张转化为兴奋。 【16题详解】 根据文章第一段“Often people give talks to sell products or ideas. Sinek calls these kinds of speakers takers, and he says the audience can see through these people right away. “We are highly social animals,” says Sinek. “We can tell if you’re a giver or a taker, and people are more likely to trust a giver than a taker.”(通常，人们会通过演讲来推销产品或理念。Sinek将这类演讲者称为“索取者”，并且他表示观众很快就能识破这些人的伪装。“我们是高度社会化的动物，”西内克说道，“我们能够辨别出你是给予者还是索取者，而且人们更倾向于信任给予者而非索取者。”)”可知，人们通常演讲是为了推销产品或想法，我们能分辨你是给予者还是索取者，人们更可能信任给予者。因此推知，演讲时应以给予为目的，而非索取，A项“出席是为了付出，而非索取”。故选A。 【17题详解】 根据文章第二段“Sinek says, “Scanning is your worst enemy. While it looks like you’re looking at everyone, it actually disconnects you from your audience.” It would be much easier and more effective, he says, if you directly look at specific audience members throughout your speech.( Sinek说：“扫视是你最大的敌人。尽管看起来你是在关注每一个人，但实际上这会让你与听众失去联系。” 他说，如果在演讲过程中能直接看向具体的听众成员，那会更加容易且有效得多。)”可知，扫视是你最大的敌人，如果你在演讲中直接看向特定的观众会更有效，因此推知D项“依次与观众进行眼神交流”符合语境，应逐一与观众进行眼神交流。故选D。 【18题详解】 前文““It’s like you’re having a conversation with your audience,” says Sinek.( Sinek说：“这就好比你在与你的听众进行交流。”)”Sinek说演讲就像在和观众对话，因此推断C项“你并非在对他们讲话，而是在与他们交流。”符合语境，说明演讲是与观众互动而非单向输出。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据后文“A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question, “Were you nervous?” And all of the athletes gave the same answer: “No. I was excited.” These competitors changed their nervousness into excitement.(几年前，他注意到在奥运会运动员比赛前后接受采访时，所有记者都问同一个问题：“你当时紧张吗？”而所有的运动员都给出了相同的回答：“不紧张。我非常兴奋。”这些运动员将紧张转化为兴奋了。)”可知，Sinek从奥运会中学习了这一方法。E项“Sinek是通过观看奥运会比赛而掌握这一方法的。”符合语境。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Then you should say to yourself, “I’m not nervous. I’m excited” “It really has a great effect on helping you change your attitude,” Sinek says.(那么你应该对自己说：“我并不紧张，我反而很兴奋。”“这确实对帮助你改变态度有着很大的作用，” Sinek说道。)”讲述了演讲者在舞台上的感受，结合前文奥运选手的感受可推知，演讲者与奥运选手的感受相似。故G项“当你站在舞台上时，你可能会经历同样的情形。”符合语境，承上启下，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用(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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 We all have been in different situations. Now ____21____ back to two situations from your past, one pleasant and the other unpleasant. ____22____ carefully whether you relive (再体验) them or just recall them. If you relive them, ____23____ the same emotions as if you are undergoing the same situations again, you are ____24____ associated with the incidents. If you can objectively recall the incidents in the past, it’s ____25____ that you are dissociated (使分离) from the incidents. Now how do association and dissociation ____26____ us in our life? The simple ____27____ I prefer to follow is to associate with positive things in life and dissociate from the negative ones. Several months ago, my friends and I went to Ooty Hill Station. One friend, Amy, had been there before — she’d had a wonderful time and ____28____ the beauty of nature. The only unpleasant thing was that her ring fell into the ____29____. When we decided to take a boat ride, Amy was not willing to _____30_____ us, as she had associated the _____31_____ with that unpleasant memory before closely. _____32_____ she had many other pleasant memories of her previous visit, she had closely _____33_____ that unpleasant incident to heart and relived the same old incident. Had she dissociated herself from that unpleasant incident, she could have figured out a way to keep the _____34_____ safe during such a boat ride. So, learning to make a good _____35_____ of which to associate and which to dissociate will make our life better. 21. A. date B. go C. turn D. think 22. A. Achieve B. Perform C. Observe D.

So my friends, try to make an experiment on _____45_____ (you). Don’t give up. You can achieve anything so long as you set your mind to it. 【答案】36. was called 37. stuck 38. which 39. that 40. anxious 41. To overcome 42. interviews 43. as 44. fluency 45. yourself 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者克服说话结巴的经历。 【36题详解】 考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：在我童年的时候，我被朋友们叫做“结巴”。句子主语和谓语动词call之间为被动关系，且动作发生在过去，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，主语是I，be动词使用was。故填was called。 【37题详解】 考查形容词。句意：每当我在课堂上回答老师问题的时候，我总会被卡住，这当然使我非常尴尬。系动词got后面用形容词作表语，stuck意为“被卡住的”。故填stuck。 【38题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：每当我在课堂上回答老师问题的时候，我总会被卡住，这当然使我非常尴尬。空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰前面整个句子，且引导词在从句中做主语，所以用which引导。故填which。 【39题详解】 考查强调句。句意：在给我做了全面的检查后，他说我说话结巴主要是因为害怕和缺乏自信。分析可知，said后面的宾语从句去掉it was和空处单词，句子意思依然完整，所以该句为强调句，其结构为It is/was…that/who…，因为被强调部分为原因状语because of the fear and lack of confidence，所以用that引导。故填that。 【40题详解】 考查形容词。句意：当我和父母以及朋友说话的时候，我可以自由的表达自己，但是当我和陌生人说话的时候，我变得焦虑和结巴。系动词became后面用形容词作表语，anxious意为“焦虑的”。故填anxious。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：为了克服我的恐惧，建立我的信心，我让自己置身于陌生人的区域。句子谓语为landed，且和空处无and连接，所以空处为非谓语，此处用动词不定式，作目的状语，位于句首，首字母大写。故填To overcome。 【42题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：我还参加了很多面对面的工作面试，这样我不得不和我不熟悉的人交谈。前面有many修饰，所以此处用名词的复数。故填interviews。 【43题详解】 考查介词。句意：我现在27岁，在一家大公司工作，担任人事经理，在公共场合说话很流畅。表示“以……身份工作”为work as。故填as。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：我现在27岁，在一家大公司工作，担任人事经理，在公共场合说话很流畅。空处作介词with的宾语，用名词形式fluency，不可数名词，故填fluency。 【45题详解】 考查反身代词。句意：所以朋友们，试着在自己身上做个实验吧。句子为祈使句，其省略的主语为you，所以此处用反身代词作宾语，要和主语保持一致，应用yourself。故填yourself。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你校将于本周日组织一次体验乡村生活的活动。请你给外教Mr. Smith写一封邮件邀请他参加，内容包括： (1)写邮件目的； (2)活动内容。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear Mr. Smith, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Warm regards, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Mr. Smith, I’m writing to invite you to join our school’s rural life experience activity that is scheduled for this Sunday.

I said yes, as I knew I could not disagree with him. Throughout the day, I stared at my exam results. I had scored a mere 62, while James had achieved a big 95 for Science! Green with envy, I maintained a long silence while avoiding my friend whenever possible. After school, we walked silently to James’ apartment. When we arrived, his phone suddenly rang. As he excused himself to answer the call, I spotted a thick, red book on his bedroom desk. Immediately, a bad plan hatched in my mind and I rubbed (搓) my hands together in eager anticipation. Quietly walking over to his desk, I grabbed the book titled ‘Primary 4, All Science Notes and Tips. Score an A!’. Instantly, I tore the book into a dozen pieces. Printed pages floated in the air, as I let go of the anger inside me. “Take that ... And that!” I said under my breath, tearing the last few pages and throwing away the remains in the dustbin. Suddenly, I heard the door open behind me. I turned around in shock and stared at my innocent friend. “Oh, hi Peter! Are you looking at my new desk?” he asked cheerfully. “I can lend you my Science notes. I have another copy from my aunt.” Before I could stop him, he was already searching around his table for it. I stood rooted to the ground, my mouth wide open. What had I just done? Out of envy, I had destroyed a precious resource. Instead of feeling proud and happy for my friend’s admirable achievement, I had let my competitiveness control me. At that moment, I felt as if my heart was drowning in sorrow and I was filled with guilt. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 When I came to my senses, I apologized awkwardly to him and admitted my wrongdoing. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With a warm smile, he forgave me just like that. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 When I came to my senses, I apologized awkwardly to him and admitted my wrongdoing. I told James that I was consumed by jealousy because he scored much higher in Science, and that I had torn his book in a moment of foolish anger. He listened patiently without interrupting, which made me realize how selfish I had been. I added that I would buy him a new copy right away and promised that I would never let negative feelings ruin our friendship again. My eyes filled with tears as I spoke, fearing that he would never forgive me for what I had done. With a warm smile, he forgave me just like that. He said he knew exams could make people feel stressed, and that he didn’t mind the book at all since he had the other copy. He also suggested that we study together every weekend, which would help me improve my Science skills. I felt a huge weight lift off my chest and thanked him sincerely for his kindness. From that day on, we supported each other more than ever, and I learned that true friendship is far more valuable than any exam score. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。作者因好友詹姆斯科学考试得高分而心生嫉妒，趁其接电话时撕毁他的科学笔记书。詹姆斯回来后仍热情要借笔记给作者，作者深感愧疚，意识到自己被竞争心控制。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“当我回过神来，便尴尬地向他道歉，承认了自己的过错。”可知，第一段可描写作者向詹姆斯坦诚因嫉妒他的高分而撕毁其科学笔记的过错，表达内心的愧疚与自责，承诺会买新书并保证不再让负面情绪破坏友谊，同时刻画作者担心被拒绝的忐忑心情。 ②由第二段句首内容“他只是露出温暖的笑容，就这样原谅了我。”可知，第二段可描写詹姆斯 体谅作者的压力并爽快原谅，提议周末一起学习帮助作者提升成绩，作者如释重负并感激他的宽容，最终领悟到真挚友谊比考试分数更珍贵的道理。 2.续写线索：清醒后向詹姆斯道歉并坦白过错——承诺弥补并保证守护友谊——担忧詹姆斯不原谅自己——詹姆斯微笑原谅并体谅作者的处境——提议共同学习助力作者进步——作者领悟友谊比分数更珍贵的真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①耐心倾听：listen patiently/hear him out/give an attentive ear ②打断：interrupt/cut in/break in ③买：buy/purchase 情绪类 ①嫉妒：jealousy/envy ②愤怒：anger/rage/fury 【点睛】【高分句型1】I told James that I was consumed by jealousy because he scored much higher in Science, and that I had torn his book in a moment of foolish anger.(运用了that引导的宾语从句、because引导的原因状语从句) 【高分句型2】He listened patiently without interrupting, which made me realize how selfish I had been.(运用了which引导的定语从句、how引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025/2026学年度第一学期七校联盟第二次学情检测高三英语试题 2025.10 注意事项： 1.本试卷考试时间为120分钟，试卷满分150分，考试形式闭卷。 2.本试卷中所有试题必须作答在答题卡上规定的位置，否则不给分。 3.答题前，务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔填写在试卷及答题卡上。 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.

B When I was in middle school, the best way that I could describe myself was as a parents’ worst nightmare: I didn’t care about my education, didn’t do my homework and always slept in class. My score was so bad that I still don’t know how I did. I had my reasons for why I didn’t do my best— video games. When I was a teenager playing Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed series, I definitely wasn’t looking to learn things. But with 11 main AC games all set during different times and places in history— like ancient Egypt and Greece—I was bound to learn something, even if just by accident. And I definitely did. One day, my history teacher passed out blank maps of the Caribbean. It was a quiz I had forgotten about. We had to label countries and major cities. Luckily, I’d been playing a lot of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, which was set in the Caribbean during the golden age of piracy in the early 18th century. So I was able to draw on my life as a pirate to fill in the map, and I got an A. Ubisoft did a lot of research to recreate ancient Egypt in the game, and they released an educational discovery tour for each game that lets you look around the environment with no violence, enemies, or time constraints (限制). You can learn about the Olympic Games, and how Sparta trained its soldiers in ancient Greece with real historical figures acting as your tour guides, or jump over to ancient Egypt to check out mummies (木乃伊) and climb on the pyramids. Obviously, Assassin’s Creed can’t teach you everything you need to know about the ancient world, but the game does make that world come alive for people who are reluctant to learn, like I was. So, take advantage of these things and your learning should be as enjoyable as possible. 4. Which of the following can best describe the author in middle school? A. A tough nut. B. A black sheep. C. A dark horse. D. A wet blanket. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. The history test was quite easy. B. Pirates were good at map filling. C. The author owed his A to the game. D. He regrets wasting so much time on games. 6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Many students are addicted to video games. B. Learning history is necessary for school students. C. Experiential learning is a powerful way of learning. D. Ubisoft accomplishes the educational purpose in its games. 7. What does the author want to convey through the text? A. Playing computer games is harmful to us. B. Games don’t necessarily prevent learning. C. The drawbacks of video games can be minimized. D. Bad grades in school won’t keep you from success. C Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. A transplant (移植) is the only treatment available to patients with end-stage heart failure, but there is a severe shortage of heart donors. That means there’s an urgent need to develop new ways to regenerate a diseased heart. Now the good news is that the world’s first complete 3D-printed heart, made using the patient’s own cells and materials, has been created in a lab. Until now, success has been limited to printing only simple tissues without blood vessels (血管). “This is the first time anyone has successfully printed an entire heart anywhere,” said team leader Tal Dvir. The 3D-printed heart is only about a third the size of an actual human heart and it doesn’t actually work. But it’s a groundbreaking step toward engineering customized (定制的) organs that can be transplanted with less risk of rejection. Dvir noted that scientists have managed to print a 3D structure of a heart before, but not with cells or blood vessels. The use of biological materials from a patient is key to successful engineering of tissues and organs. Ideally, the biomaterial should possess the same biochemical and mechanical properties of the patients’ own tissues. This way, their bodies will be less likely to reject the organ, making transplants much safer. While the 3D-printed heart is about a third the size of a human heart, the same technology can be used to print a normal-sized one. The team’s next step is to culture (培养) printed hearts in the lab and “teach them to behave” like real hearts. Then, researchers plan to transplant the 3D-printed heart into lab animals. “Our results demonstrate the potential of our approach to engineering personalized tissue and organ replacement in the future,” Dvir said. “Maybe in 10 years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world, and these procedures will be conducted routinely.” 8. What can be inferred from the world’s first complete 3D-printed heart? A. It makes organ transplants risk-free. B. It bridges gaps in biological organ printing. C. It solves the donor shortage for heart transplants. D. It has the same properties as natural heart tissues. 9. What does Dvir imply about the previous 3D-printed heart structures in paragraph 3? A. They were ready for transplant to animals. B. They matched the size of real human hearts. C. They lacked cell-based biological components. D. They contained complete blood vessel networks. 10. What will Dvir’s team do in the future? A. They will first test printed hearts on humans. B. They will focus on curing early heart failure. C. They will change the biological materials used. D. They will improve the heart’s functional performance. 11. What’s Dvir’s attitude towards the 3D printing technology? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Indifferent. D When the Derby Arboretum, one of the first public parks in England, opened in 1840, it was only open to the public on Sundays and Wednesdays. For the rest of the week, its fountains and pathways were reserved for paying customers, whose entry fees effectively supported the park. The system was scrapped in 1882, as the growing concern for public health among Victorian reformers sped up the creation of open public parks in towns and cities across England. Anyone can now walk through the Derby Arboretum. But another form of gatekeeping is taking place in parks today. Councils that have seen their budgets severely reduced due to financial challenges are finding ways to turn parks into cash-generating properties, often by renting stretches of the land to fenced-off commercial events. These deals can be mutually (互相) beneficial, particularly when the park is sizable and locals are consulted. They can also seem like a destructive form of temporary privatization. Earlier this month, Haringey Council in north London rented part of Finsbury Park to Tough Mudder, a popular obstacle (障碍) course and run for adults. Initiatives that encourage outdoor exercise are welcome, but the size and nature of the event drew criticism after hundreds of racers turned the field into a sea of mud and damaged a community orchard (果园). Races and festivals generate income that councils can reinvest in park maintenance, but they can also wall off areas of parkland, making them less accessible for locals. The reliance on commercial income isn’t limited to London. Residents in Swansea and Manchester have complained about frequent fenced-off events. Councils find themselves in a difficult position. Parks are a non-essential service, and so they are at risk of cost-cutting. Income from events has become an increasingly important source of income. For councils that cannot make their parks pay, the risk is a thinning of local facilities and declining public space. Parks are one of the last areas of truly public space. They offer us fresh air and comfort, space to breathe and exercise. Councils should not have to depend on commercial income to safeguard their future. 12. What does the underlined word “scrapped” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Simplified. B. Designed. C. Abandoned. D. Detailed. 13. Why was Tough Mudder criticized? A. It refused to consult the council. B. It designed inadequate obstacle courses. C. It involved quite a few local racers. D. It had an unfavourable environmental impact. 14. What is the concern about the reliance on commercial income for parks? A. Insufficient event facilities. B. Reduced parkland accessibility. C. Decreased park maintenance. D. Lack of interest from residents. 15. What is the author’s opinion on parks? A. They should be truly for everyone. B. They should be funded by councils. C. They should be protected by park-goers. D. They should enhance community engagement. 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。 Simon Sinek is the third most-watched TED Talks presenter of all time. Here are his top three secrets about delivering speeches. ____16____ Often people give talks to sell products or ideas. Sinek calls these kinds of speakers takers, and he says the audience can see through these people right away. “We are highly social animals,” says Sinek. “We can tell if you’re a giver or a taker, and people are more likely to trust a giver than a taker.” ____17____ Sinek says, “Scanning is your worst enemy. While it looks like you’re looking at everyone, it actually disconnects you from your audience.” It would be much easier and more effective, he says, if you directly look at specific audience members throughout your speech. “It’s like you’re having a conversation with your audience,” says Sinek. “____18____” This method not only creates a deeper connection with individuals but the entire audience can feel it. Turn nervousness into excitement. ____19____ A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question, “Were you nervous?” And all of the athletes gave the same answer: “No. I was excited.” These competitors changed their nervousness into excitement. ____20____ Then you should say to yourself, “I’m not nervous. I’m excited” “It really has a great effect on helping you change your attitude,” Sinek says. A. Show up to give, not to take. B. Say thank you when you’re done. C. You’re not speaking at them, but speaking with them. D. Make eye contact with audience members one by one. E. Sinek learned this method from watching the Olympics. F. You should practice speaking in public as often as possible. G. When you’re up on stage, you will possibly go through the same thing. 第三部分 语言运用(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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 We all have been in different situations.

I said yes, as I knew I could not disagree with him. Throughout the day, I stared at my exam results. I had scored a mere 62, while James had achieved a big 95 for Science! Green with envy, I maintained a long silence while avoiding my friend whenever possible. After school, we walked silently to James’ apartment. When we arrived, his phone suddenly rang. As he excused himself to answer the call, I spotted a thick, red book on his bedroom desk. Immediately, a bad plan hatched in my mind and I rubbed (搓) my hands together in eager anticipation. Quietly walking over to his desk, I grabbed the book titled ‘Primary 4, All Science Notes and Tips. Score an A!’. Instantly, I tore the book into a dozen pieces. Printed pages floated in the air, as I let go of the anger inside me. “Take that ... And that!” I said under my breath, tearing the last few pages and throwing away the remains in the dustbin. Suddenly, I heard the door open behind me. I turned around in shock and stared at my innocent friend. “Oh, hi Peter! Are you looking at my new desk?” he asked cheerfully. “I can lend you my Science notes. I have another copy from my aunt.” Before I could stop him, he was already searching around his table for it. I stood rooted to the ground, my mouth wide open. What had I just done? Out of envy, I had destroyed a precious resource. Instead of feeling proud and happy for my friend’s admirable achievement, I had let my competitiveness control me. At that moment, I felt as if my heart was drowning in sorrow and I was filled with guilt. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 When I came to my senses, I apologized awkwardly to him and admitted my wrongdoing. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With a warm smile, he forgave me just like that. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
