The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards With a wide range of categories—from critical essays to science fiction and fantasy, the Scholastic Awards are a mainstay of student contests. Each category has its own rules and word counts, so be sure to check out the options before you decide which one is best for your students. Students in grades 7-12, aged 13 and up, may begin submitting work in September by uploading to an online account at Scholastic and connecting to their local region. There are entry fees, but those can be waived (免除) for students in need. YoungArts National Arts Competition This ends soon, but if you have students who are ready to submit, it’s worth it. YoungArts offers a national competition in the categories of creative nonfiction, novel, play or script, poetry, short story, and spoken word. Student winners may receive awards of up to$10,000 as well as the chance to participate in artistic development with leaders in their fields. YoungArts accepts submissions in each category through October 13. National Youth Foundation Programs Each year, awards are given for Student Book Scholars, Amazing Women, and the “I Matter” Poetry & Art competition. This is a great chance for kids to express themselves with joy and strength. The rules, prizes, and deadlines vary, so check out the website for more information. American Foreign Service National High School Essay Contest If you’re looking to help students take a deep div e into international relations, history, and writing, look no further than this essay contest.

Winners receive a voyage with the Semester at Sea program and a trip to Washington, DC.(如果你想帮助学生在国际关系、历史和写作方面取得更大的进步，那就看看这个征文比赛吧。获奖者将获得海上学期计划的一次航行和华盛顿特区之旅)”可知，American Foreign Service National High School Essay Contest为获胜者提供一次航行和旅行。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Here are four events that can help your students take their writing to the next level.(这里有四件事可以帮助你的学生把他们的写作提升到一个新的水平)”可知，这四个比赛是为学生准备的。故选C项。 B Tech businessman Jared Isaacman, who made a fortune in tech and fighter jets, bought an entire flight and took three “everyday” people with him to space. He aimed to use the private trip to raise $200 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, half coming from his own pocket. His crew included a St. Jude worker with direct ties to the activity, representing the activity’s pillar (核心) of Hope, a professor, and another person, representing the pillar of Generosity, chosen as part of a $200 million St. Jude fundraising program. All were invited to join in donating to reach the ambitious overall campaign goal in support of St. Jude’s current multi-billion dollar expansion to speed up research advances and save more children worldwide. Anyone donating to St. Jude would be entered into a random drawing for the “Generosity” seat. Isaacman has been “really interested in space” since he was in kindergarten. He dropped out of high school when he was 16, got a GED certificate and started a business in his parents’ basement that became the beginning of Shift4 Payments, a credit card processing company. He set a speed record flying around the world in 2009 while raising money for the Make-A-Wish program, and later established Draken International, the world’s largest private fleet (舰队) of fighter jets. Now he has realized his childhood dream-boarding a spaceship, launched in Florida and orbiting the Earth for three days in the history-making event. He called it an “epic (史诗般的) adventure”. “I truly want us to live in a world 50 or 100 years from now where people are jumping their rockets,” Isaacman said. “And if we’re going to live in that world, we’d better deal with childhood cancer successfully along the way.” 4. Why did Isaacman raise funds for St. Jude? A. To expand a fundraising programme. B. To perform an act of great generosity. C. To make his childhood dream come true. D. To encourage St. Jude’s life-saving work. 5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3? A. The commercial skills of Isaacman. B. The growth experience of Isaacman. C. The reason for Isaacman’s good deeds. D. The beginning of Isaacman’s business. 6. What can be learned about the “epic adventure”? A. It was a multi-day journey. B. It will be common in the future. C. It involved three civilians in total. D. It is a symbol of hope for a better life. 7. What message is conveyed in Isaacman’s story? A. No sweet without sweat. B. Many hands make light work. C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D. A penny saved is a penny earned. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章围绕Isaacman的太空旅行、他的创业经历、以及他对社会公益事业的贡献展开，展现了一个充满梦想、勇气和责任感的企业家形象。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He aimed to use the private trip to raise $200 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, half coming from his own pocket. (他计划利用这次私人旅行为圣裘德儿童研究医院筹集2亿美元，其中一半由他自掏腰包。)”可知，Isaacman为St. Jude筹集资金是为了鼓励其拯救生命的工作，帮助加快研究进展并拯救更多的儿童。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Isaacman has been “really interested in space” since he was in kindergarten. He dropped out of high school when he was 16, got a GED certificate and started a business in his parents’ basement that became the beginning of Shift4 Payments, a credit card processing company. He set a speed record flying around the world in 2009 while raising money for the Make-A-Wish program, and later established Draken International, the world’s largest private fleet (舰队) of fighter jets. (Isaacman自幼儿园起就对太空“非常感兴趣”。他 16 岁时辍学，获得了高中同等学历证书，并在他父母的地下室里开始了自己的事业，这成为了信用卡处理公司 Shift4 Payments 的开端。2009 年，他在为“许愿基金会”筹集资金的同时，创下了环球飞行的速度纪录，后来还创立了Draken International，这是世界上最大的私人战斗机舰队。)”可知，第三段主要讲述了Isaacman的成长经历。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Now he has realized his childhood dream-boarding a spaceship, launched in Florida and orbiting the Earth for three days in the history-making event. (现在，他已经实现了儿时的梦想——登上宇宙飞船，这艘飞船在佛罗里达州发射，并在这一具有历史意义的事件中绕地球飞行了三天。)”可知，这次史诗般的冒险是一次多日的太空之旅。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读文章可知，Isaacman通过努力实现自己的梦想，展示了只要有决心和勇气，没有什么是不可能的。他放弃了学业，但在父母的地下室里开始了自己的事业，最终取得了成功。因此，他的故事传达了“有志者事竟成”的信息，即只要有决心和勇气，就可以克服任何困难，实现自己的梦想。故选C。 C We may not always notice that we frequently imitate each other in conversation, using similar gestures, accents, and facial expressions. We also often reuse the words of the people we speak with. Over time, this form of engagement, known as resonance (共鸣), has increased mostly among people in higher social grades, including people in leading managerial positions in the corporate world, doctors, university lecturers and politicians, according to a study led by Dr Vittorio Tantucci, a Senior Lecturer in Linguistics at Lancaster University. It showed that over a 20-year period people from these sectors changed their behaviour — resonating with one another significantly more than they used to and moving towards a more engaging style. We talk like others to be more inclusive and resonate with them. This might, suggest the researchers, be due to the dramatic change in corporate communication and higher education in the 2000s, involving an institutional turn towards corporate social responsibility (CSR), and ideologies (意识形态) such as Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI). “This affected not only the system of values of those communities but also their interactional behaviour, now increasingly moving towards open acknowledgement of other people’ s talk,” said Dr Tantucci. “This increase is not found in workplaces where these ideologies are not routinely encouraged.” “When words and expressions are creatively reused in conversation, speakers are more engaged with each other’s speech, showing a more inclusive attitude towards what has just been said by the other party,” explains Dr Tantucci. “They make the other person’s speech sound more important.” This phenomenon — resonance — has become more obvious across higher social grades of British Society than in lower ones. This shows a significant change in how British people interact with one another and how this is reflected in different social classes. 8. What does the term “resonance” refer to in the text? A. The physical act of sound. B. The psychological phenomenon of sympathy. C. The corporate strategy of adapting to market trends. D. The behavioral pattern of imitating others in conversation. 9. Which group has shown the most significant increase in resonance? A. High school students. B. Amateur athletes. C. Leaders of companies. D. Shopping assistants. 10. What might be the reason behind the increase in resonance? A. The rise of social media. B. The influence of popular culture. C. Advances in communication technology. D. The shift towards CSR and ideologies like EDI. 11 How does a communicator feel in a resonant conversation? A. Respected. B. Offended. C. Nervous. D. Uncomfortable. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了是指在谈话中模仿他人的行为模式—共鸣。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“We may not always notice that we frequently imitate each other in conversation, using similar gestures, accents, and facial expressions. We also often reuse the words of the people we speak with.(我们可能没有注意到，我们经常在谈话中模仿对方，使用相似的手势、口音和面部表情。我们也经常重复使用和我们交谈的人说过的话。)”可知，“共鸣”是指在谈话中模仿他人的行为模式。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Over time, this form of engagement, known as resonance(共鸣), has increased mostly among people in higher social grades, including people in leading managerial positions in the corporate world, doctors, university lecturers and politicians, according to a study led by Dr Vittorio Tantucci, a Senior Lecturer in Linguistics at Lancaster University.(兰开斯特大学语言学高级讲师维托里奥·坦图奇博士领导的一项研究表明，随着时间的推移，这种被称为共鸣的参与形式主要在社会地位较高的人群中增加，包括企业界的高级管理职位、医生、大学讲师和政治家。)”可知，企业领导人的共鸣增长最为显著。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“This might, suggest the researchers, be due to the dramatic change in corporate communication and higher education in the 2000s, involving an institutional turn towards corporate social responsibility (CSR), and ideologies(意识形态) such as Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI).(研究人员认为，这可能是由于2000年代企业沟通和高等教育发生了巨大变化，包括机构转向企业社会责任(CSR)，以及平等、多样性和包容(EDI)等意识形态。)”可知，可能是由于2000年代企业沟通和高等教育发生了巨大变化可能是共鸣增加的原因。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段““When words and expressions are creatively reused in conversation, speakers are more engaged with each other’s speech, showing a more inclusive attitude towards what has just been said by the other party,” explains Dr Tantucci. “They make the other person’s speech sound more important.”(坦图奇博士解释说:“当词汇和表达在谈话中被创造性地重复使用时，说话者会更投入到对方的演讲中，对对方刚刚说的话表现出更包容的态度。”“它们让对方的讲话听起来更重要。”)”可知，说话者会更投入到对方的演讲中，对对方刚刚说的话表现出更包容的态度，可知，沟通者在有共鸣的谈话中感到被尊重。故选A。 D People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present circumstances. It is a vital part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a group of people. Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols. Cultural memory is often amassed in objects, such as museums or historical monuments. To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts (历史文物) of the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it means to be part of a culture. Cultural memory is the longest-lasting form of memory. Like all forms of memory, cultural memory has important functions. For example, it makes the experiences a nation owns clear. It provides us with an understanding of the past and the values of the group to which we belong. Besides, it creates a form of shared identity and a means for communicating this identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory may involve memories of past disastrous experiences undergone (经历) by groups of victims. For example, in Russia, their role in World War II— in which tens of millions of Russians were killed — is still an important part of modern Russian identity. Because all groups have cultural memory, it can bring about a spirit of resistance or survival among threatened groups. The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again and again. Aleida Assmann, a professor who has worked on memory theory since the 1960s, calls this “remembering forward”. Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping traces (痕迹) of what worked in the past. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. Reporting a discovery of cultural memory. B. Leading to the concept of cultural memory. C. Introducing the importance of memory in identity. D. Making a connection between memory and culture. 13. Which can replace the underlined word “amassed” in paragraph 2? A. Stored. B. Overlooked. C. Evaluated. D. Created. 14. Russia is mentioned in paragraph 3 to indicate ______. A. the features of cultural memory B. the formation of cultural memory C. the role of big events in Russian identity D. the impact of cultural memory on identity 15. What is cultural memory mainly expected to do? A. Pass previous wisdom down. B. Keep traces of history. C. Get people to know about the past. D. Remind people of their identity. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨文化记忆的定义、功能及其在社会和文化适应中的重要作用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present circumstances. It is a vital part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a group of people. (人们通常认为记忆是对过去的回忆。记忆使人们能够从过去的经验中学习，并将这些知识应用于当前的情况。这是我们身份的重要组成部分。文化也是如此，是一群人特有的生活方式。)”以及第二段首句“Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols. (文化记忆是对过去的理解，通过文字、口头传统、纪念碑和其他符号代代相传。)”可知，第一段是为了引出文化记忆的概念。故选B。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段划线单词下文“To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts of the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it means to be part of a culture. (为了理解文化，人类接触了大量的文化符号，比如书籍。过去的历史文物提供了我们从哪里来的见解。图书馆和互联网保存着看似无穷无尽的数据，这些数据是关于成为某种文化的一部分意味着什么。)”可推测，划线词所在句子指的是“文化记忆通常储存在博物馆或历史纪念碑等物品中”，划线词与A项Stored“存储”意义相近。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Besides, it creates a form of shared identity and a means for communicating this identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory may involve memories of past disastrous experiences undergone by groups of victims. For example, in Russia, their role in World War II— in which tens of millions of Russians were killed — is still an important part of modern Russian identity. Because all groups have cultural memory, it can bring about a spirit of resistance or survival among threatened groups. (此外，它还创造了一种共享身份的形式，以及一种将这种身份传递给新成员的手段。最强大的文化记忆形式可能包括对受害者群体所经历的过去灾难性经历的记忆。例如，在俄罗斯，他们在二战中的角色——数千万俄罗斯人在二战中丧生——仍然是现代俄罗斯身份的重要组成部分。因为所有群体都有文化记忆，它可以在受到威胁的群体中带来一种抵抗或生存的精神。)”可知，文章提到苏联的解体和随后的事件，这些事件对俄罗斯人的身份认同产生了深远影响，展现了文化记忆如何塑造和影响一个民族或国家的身份认同，故俄罗斯的例子是用来说明文化记忆对身份认同的影响。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again and again. (文化记忆的主要功能不是回忆过去，不管过去是好是坏。相反，它是利用过去经验的知识来避免一次又一次地犯同样的错误。)”以及“Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping traces of what worked in the past. (文化记忆使人们能够适应他们的文化；它使文化能够通过保留过去的痕迹来适应新的环境。)”可知，文化记忆主要被期望用来传承过去智慧以避免犯错误和适应新环境。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。 Independence not only means you can make your own decisions, but it also means that you can do what you want with it. _______16_______ — improved physical and emotional health as well as increased creativity which will lead to greater success in the workplace!

Independence allows you to be more focused on yourself and free of worrying about what others think about. ______18______.

Dependency on others may cause you to become attached and unable to think for yourself. This can often be harmful in relationships where there is too much dependence. _______19_______, because people will be able to count on you when needed and know that you are not trying to control their decisions or choices in life. Being independent means that you are not waiting for any support or permission from anyone else. When you make your own decisions, it boosts your confidence and experience in handling issues affecting your life. That is why independence makes a person more confident than an individual who waits for help. ______20______ A. It benefits people in almost every way B. Independence can earn you others’ trust C. This is very stressful and causes a great deal of anxiety D. Independent people have clear aims and can easily achieve success E.

It is a quality you need to own.(改善身心健康以及提升创造力，这将使你在工作场所取得更大的成功！这是你需要拥有的品质)”可知，下文提到，独立的好处包括改善身体和心理健康，以及增加创造力，这些都将导致工作场所更大的成功。因此，独立几乎在各个方面都对人们有益。A项：It benefits people in almost every way.(它几乎在各个方面都使人们受益)符合语境。故选A。 【17题详解】 上文“Your life will be easy and worry-free if you’re independent because there’s no one else to be dependent on.(如果你很独立，你的生活将会变得轻松无忧，因为没有人需要你去依赖)”可知，上文提到，独立的生活会让你更容易，无忧无虑，因为没有其他人可以依赖。选项E中的“you are in control of your life”与上文相呼应。E项：It helps you to live a wonderful life because you are in control of your life.(它帮助你过上美好的生活，因为你可以掌控自己的生活)符合语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“People with independence have their own lives and goals that they set to achieve, rather than living with regrets for not being able to do what they wish to do in life. Independence allows you to pursue your dreams freely by setting up your paths to success.(独立的人有自己的生活和目标，他们设定要实现的目标，而不是生活在遗憾中不能做他们想做的事情。独立可以让你自由地追求梦想，开辟通往成功的道路)”可知，独立的人有自己的生活和目标，而不是生活在遗憾中，不能做自己想做的事情。因此，可以推断出独立的人有清晰的目标，容易成功。D项中的“have clear aims”和下文中的“have their own lives and goals”对应，D项中的“can easily achieve success.”和下文中的“paths to success”对应。D项：Independent people have clear aims and can easily achieve success.(独立的人有明确的目标，可以很容易地取得成功)符合语境。故选D。 【19题详解】 根据下文“because people will be able to count on you when needed and know that you are not trying to control their decisions or choices in life.(因为当人们需要的时候，他们可以依靠你，并且知道你并没有试图控制他们生活中的决定或选择)”可知，下文解释了独立可以赢得信任的原因，空处和下文形成因果关系，强调赢得信任这个结果。B项：Independence can earn you others’ trust.(独立可以为你赢得别人的信任)符合语境。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据上文“When you make your own decisions, it boosts your confidence and experience in handling issues affecting your life. That is why independence makes a person more confident than an individual who waits for help.(当你自己做决定时，它会增强你处理影响你生活的问题的信心和经验。这就是为什么独立的人比等待帮助的人更自信)”可知，上文提到，当你做出自己的决定时，它会增强你处理影响你生活的问题的信心和经验。因此，可以推断出独立可以让你更有能力应对未来的情况。选项G中的“more able to handle any future situation coming your way”与上文相呼应。G项：Independence allows you to be more able to handle any future situation coming your way.(独立让你更有能力处理任何未来的情况)符合语境。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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Matt Shaha, 27, grew out his hair for two years to make it into a wig (假发) for his mom, Melanie Shaha, who has been ____21____with a benign tumor (良性肿瘤) since 2003.

Life did get a bit easier ever since she was taken in by her foster mom, but the little girl was still not happy. How she wished she could have a father! One morning in class, Minnie’s teacher, Mr Thompson, made a surprising announcement, making Minnie frown (皱眉) again. “Kids, tomorrow is Father’s Day! And at school, we’re all celebrating it by having breakfast with Dads! All of you get to bring your dads or anyone you look up to as your dad to school tomorrow. We’ll all sit in one circle, share funny stories, and have breakfast together.” “What a terrible idea!” Minnie muttered (咕哝) under her breath. For the rest of the day, most kids were talking up their fathers: businessmen, policemen, engineers, and even an actor. Everybody had somebody who was a father figure, except for Minnie. After school, Mr Thompson spotted the sad little girl sitting alone by the school gate. “Are you all right, Minnie?” Mr Thompson asked. Suddenly, the child hugged his legs and cried. Minnie told her trouble to her teacher and Mr Thompson comforted her. After getting home that evening, Mr Thompson couldn’t shake off the sadness he had seen on Minnie’s face. Suddenly, he had an idea. He opened his laptop, and as the keys on the keyboard clattered, Mr Thompson began to smile. He was putting out a post on social media, sharing Minnie’s story and asking for a dad to volunteer for Minnie and show up to school the next day as her father figure. Thirty minutes later, his phone buzzed. And it buzzed again and again. By the time the teacher checked his phone, he was shocked to see the number flashing across the screen. “50 volunteers? Am I reading this right?” Mr Thompson gasped. He put on his glasses and read through all the responses on his post. He was so surprised. These 50 volunteers all wanted to come and help Minnie. 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。 The next day, Minnie went to school sadly, not knowing the surprise was waiting for her. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Minnie was confused at first, but when she saw those “dads”, she was obviously happy. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： The next day, Minnie went to school sadly, not knowing the surprise was waiting for her. She walked along the hallways with her eyes glued to the floor, failing to notice the line of adult men outside her class door. Mr Thompson said her name last after the other kids had introduced their dads to the class. Just as Minnie was about to say that she had no one, Mr Thompson held her shoulders and said, “Minnie, I know you wanted to bring a father figure, and you thought there wasn’t one. You are right about that, my dear. There isn’t one father figure who has shown up for you; there are 50!” Minnie was confused at first, but when she saw those “dads”, she was obviously happy. “You’ve really come for me?” she clapped in excitement. “Certainly, Minnie! Mr Thompson told us all about you, and we wouldn’t miss it for the world!” one of the men said gently. The volunteers joined the other dads and kids for the day, taking part in every game. They had a happy and memorable day. After a thoroughly entertaining day, Minnie was thankful to those kind “dads” and they all promised that they would come to meet Minnie whenever she needed them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了被单身的富有女士收养的Minnie因为没有父亲而郁郁寡欢，父亲节时老师要求每个孩子都邀请自己的父亲来共进早餐。在得知Minnie的情况后，老师在网络上发布了倡议，最终有50名志愿者来到学校愿意作为Minnie的“father”陪她度过父亲节的暖心故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，Minnie心情低落地去上学，还不知道有惊喜正在等着她。”可知，第一段可描写在老师的帮助下，Minnie见到了这些“父亲们”。 ②由第二段首句内容“Minnie一开始很困惑，但当她看到这些“父亲们”的时候，非常开心。”可知，第二段可描写Minnie与这些“父亲们”开心互动的景象。 2.续写线索：上学心情低落——打算解释真相——老师说有50个“父亲”来陪她过父亲节——见到这些“父亲”——开心过节——感谢 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①注意到：notice/spot ②出现，露面：show up/turn up ③参加：take part in/participate in 情绪类 ①感谢：be thankful to/ show one’s gratitude to/be grateful to ②激动，兴奋：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型1] There isn’t one father figure who has shown up for you.（运用了who引导的定语从句） [高分句型2] They all promised that they would come to meet Minnie whenever she needed them. （运用了that引导的宾语从句及whnenver引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 张家口市第一中学高三年级英语学科期中考试卷 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 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） 1.

The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards With a wide range of categories—from critical essays to science fiction and fantasy, the Scholastic Awards are a mainstay of student contests. Each category has its own rules and word counts, so be sure to check out the options before you decide which one is best for your students. Students in grades 7-12, aged 13 and up, may begin submitting work in September by uploading to an online account at Scholastic and connecting to their local region. There are entry fees, but those can be waived (免除) for students in need. YoungArts National Arts Competition This ends soon, but if you have students who are ready to submit, it’s worth it. YoungArts offers a national competition in the categories of creative nonfiction, novel, play or script, poetry, short story, and spoken word. Student winners may receive awards of up to$10,000 as well as the chance to participate in artistic development with leaders in their fields. YoungArts accepts submissions in each category through October 13. National Youth Foundation Programs Each year, awards are given for Student Book Scholars, Amazing Women, and the “I Matter” Poetry & Art competition. This is a great chance for kids to express themselves with joy and strength. The rules, prizes, and deadlines vary, so check out the website for more information. American Foreign Service National High School Essay Contest If you’re looking to help students take a deep div e into international relations, history, and writing, look no further than this essay contest.

B Tech businessman Jared Isaacman, who made a fortune in tech and fighter jets, bought an entire flight and took three “everyday” people with him to space. He aimed to use the private trip to raise $200 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, half coming from his own pocket. His crew included a St. Jude worker with direct ties to the activity, representing the activity’s pillar (核心) of Hope, a professor, and another person, representing the pillar of Generosity, chosen as part of a $200 million St. Jude fundraising program. All were invited to join in donating to reach the ambitious overall campaign goal in support of St. Jude’s current multi-billion dollar expansion to speed up research advances and save more children worldwide. Anyone donating to St. Jude would be entered into a random drawing for the “Generosity” seat. Isaacman has been “really interested in space” since he was in kindergarten. He dropped out of high school when he was 16, got a GED certificate and started a business in his parents’ basement that became the beginning of Shift4 Payments, a credit card processing company. He set a speed record flying around the world in 2009 while raising money for the Make-A-Wish program, and later established Draken International, the world’s largest private fleet (舰队) of fighter jets. Now he has realized his childhood dream-boarding a spaceship, launched in Florida and orbiting the Earth for three days in the history-making event. He called it an “epic (史诗般的) adventure”. “I truly want us to live in a world 50 or 100 years from now where people are jumping their rockets,” Isaacman said. “And if we’re going to live in that world, we’d better deal with childhood cancer successfully along the way.” 4. Why did Isaacman raise funds for St. Jude? A. To expand a fundraising programme. B. To perform an act of great generosity. C. To make his childhood dream come true. D. To encourage St. Jude’s life-saving work. 5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3? A. The commercial skills of Isaacman. B. The growth experience of Isaacman. C. The reason for Isaacman’s good deeds. D. The beginning of Isaacman’s business. 6. What can be learned about the “epic adventure”? A. It was a multi-day journey. B. It will be common in the future. C. It involved three civilians in total. D. It is a symbol of hope for a better life. 7. What message is conveyed in Isaacman’s story? A. No sweet without sweat. B. Many hands make light work. C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D. A penny saved is a penny earned. C We may not always notice that we frequently imitate each other in conversation, using similar gestures, accents, and facial expressions. We also often reuse the words of the people we speak with. Over time, this form of engagement, known as resonance (共鸣), has increased mostly among people in higher social grades, including people in leading managerial positions in the corporate world, doctors, university lecturers and politicians, according to a study led by Dr Vittorio Tantucci, a Senior Lecturer in Linguistics at Lancaster University. It showed that over a 20-year period people from these sectors changed their behaviour — resonating with one another significantly more than they used to and moving towards a more engaging style. We talk like others to be more inclusive and resonate with them. This might, suggest the researchers, be due to the dramatic change in corporate communication and higher education in the 2000s, involving an institutional turn towards corporate social responsibility (CSR), and ideologies (意识形态) such as Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI). “This affected not only the system of values of those communities but also their interactional behaviour now increasingly moving towards open acknowledgement of other people’ s talk,” said Dr Tantucci. “This increase is not found in workplaces where these ideologies are not routinely encouraged.” “When words and expressions are creatively reused in conversation, speakers are more engaged with each other’s speech, showing a more inclusive attitude towards what has just been said by the other party,” explains Dr Tantucci. “They make the other person’s speech sound more important.” This phenomenon — resonance — has become more obvious across higher social grades of British Society than in lower ones This shows a significant change in how British people interact with one another and how this is reflected in different social classes. 8. What does the term “resonance” refer to in the text? A. The physical act of sound. B. The psychological phenomenon of sympathy. C. The corporate strategy of adapting to market trends. D. The behavioral pattern of imitating others in conversation. 9. Which group has shown the most significant increase in resonance? A. High school students. B. Amateur athletes. C. Leaders of companies. D. Shopping assistants. 10. What might be the reason behind the increase in resonance? A. The rise of social media. B. The influence of popular culture. C. Advances in communication technology. D. The shift towards CSR and ideologies like EDI. 11. How does a communicator feel in a resonant conversation? A. Respected. B. Offended. C. Nervous. D. Uncomfortable. D People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present circumstances. It is a vital part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a group of people. Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols. Cultural memory is often amassed in objects, such as museums or historical monuments. To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts (历史文物) of the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it means to be part of a culture. Cultural memory is the longest-lasting form of memory. Like all forms of memory, cultural memory has important functions. For example, it makes the experiences a nation owns clear. It provides us with an understanding of the past and the values of the group to which we belong. Besides, it creates a form of shared identity and a means for communicating this identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory may involve memories of past disastrous experiences undergone (经历) by groups of victims. For example, in Russia, their role in World War II— in which tens of millions of Russians were killed — is still an important part of modern Russian identity. Because all groups have cultural memory, it can bring about a spirit of resistance or survival among threatened groups. The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again and again. Aleida Assmann, a professor who has worked on memory theory since the 1960s, calls this “remembering forward”. Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping traces (痕迹) of what worked in the past. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. Reporting a discovery of cultural memory. B. Leading to the concept of cultural memory. C. Introducing the importance of memory in identity. D. Making a connection between memory and culture. 13. Which can replace the underlined word “amassed” in paragraph 2? A. Stored. B. Overlooked. C. Evaluated. D. Created. 14. Russia is mentioned in paragraph 3 to indicate ______. A. the features of cultural memory B. the formation of cultural memory C. the role of big events in Russian identity D. the impact of cultural memory on identity 15. What is cultural memory mainly expected to do? A. Pass previous wisdom down. B. Keep traces of history. C. Get people to know about the past. D.

Life did get a bit easier ever since she was taken in by her foster mom, but the little girl was still not happy. How she wished she could have a father! One morning in class, Minnie’s teacher, Mr Thompson, made a surprising announcement, making Minnie frown (皱眉) again. “Kids, tomorrow is Father’s Day! And at school, we’re all celebrating it by having breakfast with Dads! All of you get to bring your dads or anyone you look up to as your dad to school tomorrow. We’ll all sit in one circle, share funny stories, and have breakfast together.” “What a terrible idea!” Minnie muttered (咕哝) under her breath. For the rest of the day, most kids were talking up their fathers: businessmen, policemen, engineers, and even an actor. Everybody had somebody who was a father figure, except for Minnie. After school, Mr Thompson spotted the sad little girl sitting alone by the school gate. “Are you all right, Minnie?” Mr Thompson asked. Suddenly, the child hugged his legs and cried. Minnie told her trouble to her teacher and Mr Thompson comforted her. After getting home that evening, Mr Thompson couldn’t shake off the sadness he had seen on Minnie’s face. Suddenly, he had an idea. He opened his laptop, and as the keys on the keyboard clattered, Mr Thompson began to smile. He was putting out a post on social media, sharing Minnie’s story and asking for a dad to volunteer for Minnie and show up to school the next day as her father figure. Thirty minutes later, his phone buzzed. And it buzzed again and again. By the time the teacher checked his phone, he was shocked to see the number flashing across the screen. “50 volunteers? Am I reading this right?” Mr Thompson gasped. He put on his glasses and read through all the responses on his post. He was so surprised. These 50 volunteers all wanted to come and help Minnie. 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。 The next day, Minnie went to school sadly, not knowing the surprise was waiting for her. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Minnie was confused at first, but when she saw those “dads”, she was obviously happy. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
