The idea of homework goes back a long way. Historians trace it to ancient Rome. Pliny the Younger, a teacher around AD 61-113, encouraged students to practice speaking at home. Homework evolved slowly over the centuries. ____17____ In the U.S., it grew common in the early 20th century. In 1957, American schools piled on homework to raise academic demands. By the 1980s, it was seen as key to academic success. ____18____ For high schoolers, homework links to academic performance. But younger kids seem to gain little from traditional homework. Furthermore, students who are responsible and supported at home are most likely to complete assignments and benefit from them. For students from lower-income families who might lack internet access, homework can actually widen the achievement gap. Then everything changed. As educators recognized the limitations of passive, one-size-fits-all tasks in encouraging genuine understanding and student engagement, traditional worksheets and reading logs gave way to project-based assignments or online lessons, clouding the line between homework and classwork. However, just assigning tasks wasn’t enough. ____19____ So, what now? Keep, change, or get rid of it? ____20____ It all comes down to how it’s used. When it’s just something to keep kids busy, it doesn’t do much. But when thoughtful, clear, and actually fitting what a student needs, it has its place. In a world where information is instant, the purpose of homework needs a fresh look. A. The concept, however, faded significantly during the Middle Ages. B. The question of whether homework actually helps students is tricky. C. The thing is, homework isn’t automatically good or bad. D. Furthermore, access to reliable internet became a critical factor. E. It took on a more formal role during the Industrial Revolution. F. Ask students what school’s like, and you’ll hear about tests, teachers and homework. G. Without engagement, feedback, and support, homework lost its effectiveness. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. B 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了家庭作业的历史、现状以及其对学生学习的影响，并探讨了随着学习方式的转变，家庭作业是否仍然有价值。 【16题详解】 上文“Homework has long been tied to school.(家庭作业与学校的关联由来已久)”提出家庭作业与学校紧密相连这一背景信息，F选项“Ask students what school’s like, and you’ll hear about tests, teachers and homework.(若问学生学校生活什么样，你听到的总是考试、老师和家庭作业)”通过询问学生，进一步强调了家庭作业与学校生活的普遍联系，同时引出下文“But with the way of learning shifted,it’s fair to ask: Is homework still relevant, or a leftover from a different time?(但随着学习模式的变革，我们有必要反思：家庭作业究竟是仍有价值，还是旧时代的残留物？)|”对家庭作业是否仍然有价值的讨论。故选F项。 【17题详解】 上文“Homework evolved slowly over the centuries.(几个世纪以来，家庭作业慢慢演变)”说明家庭作业在几个世纪里逐渐演变，E选项“It took on a more formal role during the Industrial Revolution.(工业革命时期，家庭作业开始承担更规范化的教育职能)”具体说明其演变过程始于工业革命时期，与下文“In the U.S., it grew common in the early 20th century. In 1957, American schools piled on homework to raise academic demands. By the 1980s, it was seen as key to academic success.(美国家庭作业的普及始于20世纪初。1957年，为提升学术要求，美国学校开始大量布置作业。到1980年代，它已被视为学业成功的关键要素)”构成时间上的递进关系，共同描绘了家庭作业的历史演变过程。故选E项。 【18题详解】 下文“For high schoolers, homework links to academic performance. But younger kids seem to gain little from traditional homework.(对于高中生来说，家庭作业与学业成绩有关。但年幼的孩子似乎从传统家庭作业中获益甚少)”举例说明不同年龄段的学生从家庭作业中获益的情况不同，B选项“The question of whether homework actually helps students is tricky.(家庭作业是否真的对学生有帮助这个问题很棘手)”引出了下文关于家庭作业效果的具体讨论，即不同年龄段的学生从家庭作业中获益的情况不同。故选B项。 【19题详解】 上文“However, just assigning tasks wasn’t enough.(然而，仅仅布置任务是不够的)”指出仅仅布置任务并不足以达到预期效果，G选项“Without engagement, feedback, and support, homework lost its effectiveness.(没有参与、反馈和支持，家庭作业就失去了效果)”进一步解释了为什么仅仅布置任务不够，即缺乏学生的参与、教师的反馈和支持，家庭作业就无法发挥其应有的作用，与上文构成因果关系。故选G项。 【20题详解】 下文“It all comes down to how it’s used.(这完全取决于如何使用它)”强调了家庭作业的使用方式对其效果的影响，C选项“The thing is, homework isn’t automatically good or bad.(问题是，家庭作业本身并没有好坏之分)”与下文相呼应，指出家庭作业本身并无好坏之分，关键在于如何使用它，即如何布置、如何反馈、如何支持等，上下文语意连贯。故选C项。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My husband’s career has led to our family relocating many times.

The traveler, Wang Dong, journeyed ____37____ Shenzhen in South China’s Guangdong Province to Beijing, then to Shanghai, Guiyang, and ____38____ (eventual) to Yibin in Southwest China’s Sichuan Province, in February, 2025, arriving with only 40 seconds to spare before the 24-hour deadline. The most intense moment came, ____39____ Wang had only 31 minutes to transfer (换乘) from Beijing West Station to Beijing South Station by subway. With his incoming train ____40____ (delay) by three minutes, he relied on experience and ran through the station — managing ____41____ (catch) his next train in just 22 minutes. The real ____42____ (excite) came near the end of the journey. “My final train, D5122 from Guiyang to Yibin, was planned just four minutes before the 24-hour mark,” Wang said. “If it had been put off by over three minutes, my attempt would have failed.” Unfortunately, when D5 122 pulled into Yibin, it was indeed late — but only by 2 minutes. As the doors opened and Wang ____43____ (step) onto the platform, his watch showed just 40 seconds remaining, which was ____44____ exciting margin (差距) between success and failure. At the end of his journey, ____45____ made Mr Wang think highly of the power of China’s high-speed railway system was its rapid development and high efficiency, which made the impossible possible. 【答案】36. covering 37. from 38. eventually 39. when 40. delayed 41. to catch 42. excitement 43. stepped 44. an 45. what 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，讲述了来自中国的火车爱好者王东创造了“24小时内乘火车旅行最远距离”的吉尼斯世界纪录，详细描述了他在一天内辗转多地的行程，以及过程中换乘等紧张时刻，最后强调了中国高铁系统对他完成挑战的重要作用。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：根据吉尼斯世界纪录官方微信公众号消息，一位来自中国的火车爱好者创造了“24小时内乘火车旅行最远距离”的吉尼斯世界纪录，在一天内行驶了令人惊叹的5887.76公里。句子已有谓语动词has set，此处应用非谓语动词，cover与逻辑主语A train enthusiast之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词covering作状语，表伴随。故填covering。 【37题详解】 考查介词。句意：旅行者王东于2025年2月从中国南方广东省的深圳出发，前往北京，然后到上海、贵阳，最终到达中国西南部四川省的宜宾，在24小时截止时间前仅剩余40秒时抵达。from...to...为固定搭配，意为“从……到……”，此处表示从深圳出发到其他地方，故填from。 【38题详解】 考查副词。句意：旅行者王东于2025年2月从中国南方广东省的深圳出发，前往北京，然后到上海、贵阳，最终到达中国西南部四川省的宜宾，在24小时截止时间前仅剩余40秒时抵达。此处修饰整个句子，要用副词形式，eventual的副词是eventually，意为“最终”。故填eventually。 【39题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：最紧张的时刻出现在王东只有31分钟时间从北京西站乘地铁转至北京南站的时候。空格处引导定语从句，先行词为The most intense moment，在从句中作时间状语，所以用关系副词when引导。故填when。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：由于他要乘坐的火车晚点了三分钟，他凭借经验在车站奔跑——最终仅用22分钟就赶上了下一趟火车。此处为with的复合结构，即“with +宾语+宾语补足语”，his incoming train与delay之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词delayed作宾语补足语。故填delayed。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：由于他要乘坐的火车晚点了三分钟，他凭借经验在车站奔跑——最终仅用22分钟就赶上了下一趟火车。manage to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“设法做成某事”，所以此处用动词不定式to catch。故填to catch。 【42题详解】 考查名词。句意：真正令人兴奋的时刻出现在旅程接近尾声的时候。此处应用名词作主语，excite的名词形式是excitement，意为“令人兴奋的事”，为不可数名词。故填excitement。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：当车门打开，王东踏上站台时，他的手表显示只剩下40秒，这是成功与失败之间令人兴奋的微小差距。根据上下文可知，事情发生在过去，所以用一般过去时，step的过去式为stepped。故填stepped。 44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：当车门打开，王东踏上站台时，他的手表显示只剩下40秒，这是成功与失败之间令人兴奋的微小差距。margin为可数名词单数，此处表示泛指“一个令人兴奋的差距”，且exciting是发音以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。 【45题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：在旅程结束时，让王先生高度评价中国高铁系统的是其快速发展和高效率，这使得不可能的事情成为可能。空格处引导主语从句，在从句中作主语，表示“……的事情”，所以用连接代词what引导。故填what。 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，你校英语报健康专栏对学生不吃早餐的现象进行调查，请根据以下调查统计图写一份书面报告，内容包括： 1．描述统计图（bar chart）； 2．给出建议。 How Often Breakfast Is Skipped 注意：(1)写作词数应80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Recently, our English newspaper had a survey about how often breakfast is skipped. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Recently, our English newspaper had a survey about how often breakfast is skipped.

Initially, it was just a little, but then, it seemed like overnight, my face was covered with it. I tried to hide it with my hair, but it just wouldn’t work. I was consumed with worry that my peers would make fun of me. I couldn’t concentrate in class, as my mind was constantly preoccupied with my appearance, causing my grades to slip sharply. I started to feel inferior to my classmates and even avoid interaction with them. I tried to get rid of the acne. I washed my face multiple times a day, using all sorts of acne creams I found. I also avoided snacks that might cause it. But all ended up in vain. One day, our school announced a sports day and the teacher asked us to form our own teams. As a sports enthusiast, I had been eagerly expecting it, but I was scared that no one would join me because of how I looked. Standing in front of the mirror, I kept imagining how my classmates would react when I asked them to team up with me. The fear of rejection held me back from approaching them. But then, Kim came to me, “Do you want to join us for the relay race (接力赛)? I’ve seen you run before and you’ve got the speed. If you join us, we’ll have a good chance to win.” In disbelief, I managed to utter “Yes”, still feeling self-conscious but also incredibly grateful. Along with three other classmates, I signed up for the relay race. We trained and discussed strategies together, with no one paying any attention to my acne. Thanks to my speed advantage, I was even assigned to run the final leg — the most critical role in the race. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then came the long-awaited sports day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The victory was a turning point in my junior life. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then came the long-awaited sports day. My palms were sweaty as I stood at the final position of the track. When the third runner approached, I grabbed the baton firmly and sprinted like the wind. Cheers erupted as I overtook two opponents. Crossing the finish line first, I saw my teammates rushing towards me with joyful screams. To my surprise, classmates patted my shoulder excitedly, their eyes shining with admiration instead of judgment. Kim hugged me, “You’re our superhero!” No one mentioned my acne — they only remembered my flying figure on the track. The victory was a turning point in my junior life. Gradually I realized people valued my abilities more than my appearance. I started raising my hand in class again and joined the school basketball team. Though acne still occasionally troubled me, I stopped hiding behind my hair. When a new student once asked about my skin, Kim immediately defended, “That’s just his warrior paint from saving our relay race!” We all laughed, and I finally understood true friendship sees beyond surfaces. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者进入七年级后因长青春痘而自卑，担心同学嘲笑，成绩下滑，在运动会接力赛报名时，Kim邀请作者加入，作者最终和队友们一起训练并在比赛中获胜的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于到了期待已久运动会了”可知，第一段可描写作者在运动会接力赛上的表现，以及获胜后同学们的反应，突出大家对作者能力的认可，而非关注其青春痘。 ②由第二段首句内容“这次胜利是我初中生活的一个转折点”可知，第二段可描写这次胜利对作者的影响，作者开始积极融入集体，不再因青春痘而自卑，明白了真正的友谊是超越外表的。 2.续写线索：运动会开始——努力比赛——同学欣赏——作者感悟——明白友谊真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓住：grab/seize ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③举手：raise one’s hand/put up one’s hand 情绪类 ①激动地：excitedly/with excitement ②欣赏：admiration/appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型2】My palms were sweaty as I stood at the final position of the track.(运用了as引导时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】Gradually I realized people valued my abilities more than my appearance.

B Eighteen-year-old Indian programmer Anika Sharma has created a low-cost AI tool that can assist in the early detection of eye diseases. Her project, named “EyeScan AI,” was awarded the top prize at the International Science and Engineering Fair in August 2025, attracting attention from medical experts worldwide. Anika’s inspiration came from witnessing her grandfather struggle with diabetes-related vision loss, a condition that could have been managed with earlier diagnosis. With limited resources, she spent over a year teaching herself machine learning and collecting thousands of public medical images to train her model. The resulting software can analyze images of a person’s retina taken with a smartphone adapter and identify early signs of diseases like diabetic retinopathy with an accuracy exceeding 90%. Its low cost is a key advantage, making it potentially accessible to rural clinics in developing regions. “My goal is not to replace doctors, but to provide a tool that helps them, especially in areas with few specialists,” Anika stated. Her computer science teacher, Mr. Patel, described her as incredibly resourceful, highlighting how she solved complex problems using free online courses and collaborative coding platforms. Anika has already begun working with a non-profit organization to pilot “EyeScan AI” in several community health centers. She believes that technology should bridge healthcare gaps, and she plans to continue her studies in both computer science and public health to further this mission. 4. What is the main function of Anika’s “EyeScan AI” tool? A. To replace eye doctors in urban hospitals. B. To cure diabetes-related vision loss. C. To take high-quality photos of the retina. D. To help with the early detection of eye diseases. 5. What is a key advantage of Anika’s AI tool mentioned in the text? A. It is very expensive but highly accurate. B. It can operate without any internet connection. C. Its low price makes it accessible to underserved areas. D. It is the first AI tool ever used in medicine. 6. What does the underlined word “resourceful” in Paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. having a lot of personal wealth B. good at finding ways to solve problems C. relying heavily on others for help D. knowledgeable about history 7. What can we infer about Anika from the passage? A. She is motivated by a desire to address a real-world health problem. B. She had access to the best resources and teachers from the start. C. She plans to sell her software to large technology companies. D. She believes her tool will make medical specialists unnecessary. C Access to safe drinking water is a basic need for every household, yet traditional water treatment often fails to address tiny pollutants or user oversight. On September 18, 2025, a breakthrough emerged at the China Home Technology Expo in Guangzhou: “QingShui-1,” a smart water purifier developed by South China University of Technology, which redefines home water safety with innovative technology. Traditional purifiers struggle with two critical flaws: they cannot filter particles smaller than 0.01 micron, such as certain heavy metals, and users often forget to replace filter elements. The QingShui-1 team targeted these gaps with a multi-layer composite filter made of activated carbon and ceramic. Laboratory tests confirm it removes 99.8% of heavy metals and 99.5% of bacteria, trapping particles as small as 0.001 micron. What sets it apart is smart connectivity. Linked to a WeChat mini-program, the device sends real-time alerts when the filter element nears expiration, and users can order replacements directly through the app. This solves the long-standing problem of delayed maintenance that undermines water safety. Installation and usability were also prioritized. Its compact size fits under most kitchen sinks, and it connects to standard faucets in 5 minutes — no professional help needed. A month-long trial with 500 families in Guangzhou and Shanghai yielded positive feedback. “I used to stress about my baby’s drinking water,” said Ms. Chen, a participant. “Now I check quality on my phone anytime — it’s such a relief.” Mass production is scheduled for December 2025, with a price 20% lower than imported alternatives. This innovation not only enhances household water safety but also makes advanced treatment technology accessible to ordinary families, reflecting China’s practical approach to solving daily life challenges. 8. What is the main purpose of the QingShui-1 smart water purifier? A. To replace all imported water purifiers in the Chinese market. B. To introduce a new concept for home water safety by technological innovation. C. To showcase the research capabilities of South China University of Technology. D. To compete with traditional water purifiers in terms of pricing. 9. What makes QingShui-1 superior to traditional water purifiers? A. It removes 99.8% of bacteria and filters 0.01-micron particles. B. It costs 20% less than all imported purifiers and works at high temps. C. It fits all kitchen sinks and needs no professional installation. D. It connects to phones for alerts and traps ultra-tiny pollutants. 10. What can we infer from Ms. Chen’s words? A. She no longer worries about her baby’s drinking water safety. B. The purifier has improved her baby’s drinking habits. C. She doubts the accuracy of the app’s water quality data. D. She found the installation more complex than expected. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the passage? A. WeChat Mini-Programs: A New Tool for Home Maintenance B. QingShui-1: A September 2025 Innovation in Home Water Safety C. Breakthroughs in China’s 2025 Home Appliance Technology D. How to Choose a Cost-Effective Water Purifier for Families D A research team from the University of California has developed a new type of fully biodegradable plastic derived from seaweed, offering a promising solution to the global plastic pollution crisis. The findings, published in a leading scientific journal in September 2025, demonstrate that this innovative material decomposes completely in natural environments within weeks, unlike conventional plastics that persist for centuries. The research process involved extracting specific polymers from common brown seaweed and modifying them to create a durable yet flexible material. Laboratory tests confirmed that the new bioplastic possesses strength comparable to traditional plastic packaging. Most significantly, when exposed to soil or seawater, it breaks down into harmless organic matter through natural microbial activity. Field experiments showed complete decomposition within four to eight weeks, leaving no microplastic residues. The production method is also energy-efficient, requiring 30% less energy than conventional plastic manufacturing. Dr. Emily Chen, the lead researcher, expressed cautious optimism about the potential impact. “This material could revolutionize packaging industries, particularly for food and consumer goods,” she stated. However, she acknowledged the challenges ahead, noting that “scaling up production while maintaining cost competitiveness with established plastics remains a significant hurdle.” Several major companies have already shown interest in adopting this technology, recognizing both its environmental benefits and growing consumer demand for sustainable products.

The idea of homework goes back a long way. Historians trace it to ancient Rome. Pliny the Younger, a teacher around AD 61-113, encouraged students to practice speaking at home. Homework evolved slowly over the centuries. ____17____ In the U.S., it grew common in the early 20th century. In 1957, American schools piled on homework to raise academic demands. By the 1980s, it was seen as key to academic success. ____18____ For high schoolers, homework links to academic performance. But younger kids seem to gain little from traditional homework. Furthermore, students who are responsible and supported at home are most likely to complete assignments and benefit from them. For students from lower-income families who might lack internet access, homework can actually widen the achievement gap. Then everything changed. As educators recognized the limitations of passive, one-size-fits-all tasks in encouraging genuine understanding and student engagement, traditional worksheets and reading logs gave way to project-based assignments or online lessons, clouding the line between homework and classwork. However, just assigning tasks wasn’t enough. ____19____ So, what now? Keep, change, or get rid of it? ____20____ It all comes down to how it’s used. When it’s just something to keep kids busy, it doesn’t do much. But when thoughtful, clear, and actually fitting what a student needs, it has its place. In a world where information is instant, the purpose of homework needs a fresh look. A. The concept, however, faded significantly during the Middle Ages. B. The question of whether homework actually helps students is tricky. C. The thing is, homework isn’t automatically good or bad. D. Furthermore, access to reliable internet became a critical factor. E. It took on a more formal role during the Industrial Revolution. F. Ask students what school’s like, and you’ll hear about tests, teachers and homework. G. Without engagement, feedback, and support, homework lost its effectiveness. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My husband’s career has led to our family relocating many times.

Initially, it was just a little, but then, it seemed like overnight, my face was covered with it. I tried to hide it with my hair, but it just wouldn’t work. I was consumed with worry that my peers would make fun of me. I couldn’t concentrate in class, as my mind was constantly preoccupied with my appearance, causing my grades to slip sharply. I started to feel inferior to my classmates and even avoid interaction with them. I tried to get rid of the acne. I washed my face multiple times a day, using all sorts of acne creams I found. I also avoided snacks that might cause it. But all ended up in vain. One day, our school announced a sports day and the teacher asked us to form our own teams. As a sports enthusiast, I had been eagerly expecting it, but I was scared that no one would join me because of how I looked. Standing in front of the mirror, I kept imagining how my classmates would react when I asked them to team up with me. The fear of rejection held me back from approaching them. But then, Kim came to me, “Do you want to join us for the relay race (接力赛)? I’ve seen you run before and you’ve got the speed. If you join us, we’ll have a good chance to win.” In disbelief, I managed to utter “Yes”, still feeling self-conscious but also incredibly grateful. Along with three other classmates, I signed up for the relay race. We trained and discussed strategies together, with no one paying any attention to my acne. Thanks to my speed advantage, I was even assigned to run the final leg — the most critical role in the race. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then came the long-awaited sports day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The victory was a turning point in my junior life. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
