You might be wondering why we would celebrate something that seems so strange. But we believe that bad art brings out a different kind of beauty. I’m sure it will surprise you. At first, the co-founder, an art dealer named Scott Wilson, found a painting next to a garbage can and saved it. Then he put it on a special exhibition with some other unfavorable paintings. Unexpectedly, it became a huge hit. So, this museum is a reminder that creativity knows no limits, and that even the least liked pieces can move us deeply. As you journey through our collection, you will see pieces that challenge your traditional opinions of what art should be. Paintings featuring odd figures, strange colors, and unique subjects will catch your eye. The other co-founder of the museum, Marie Jackson, said it was built to celebrate an artist’s right to fail. At the Museum of Bad Art, beautiful mistakes become unforgettable masterpieces. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Web Content Developer Pay: $16—$22 hourly (about 30 hours a week) We are looking for a creative, hardworking person to join our team as a page developer.

How may I help you?” A concerned woman’s voice described a possible injured animal on the roadside — something with brown, black, and white fur, moving in the wind. “Perhaps it was someone’s loving cat or dog. Maybe a fox? I wasn’t sure. But it might be wounded and need help.” She sounded genuinely worried. She even called it “Fluffy.” So, I set off in the morning wind, driving along the stretch of road she mentioned. Beautiful day. But there was no sign of any animal, injured or otherwise. I made a note and headed back, figuring the creature might have moved on. Case closed, or so I thought. The next day, the same lady called back. I told her my findings, and she seemed relieved. I thought that was the end of it. But not an hour later, my phone rang again. It was her. Her voice was a mix of excitement and urgency. “I see it again! It’s farther down the road, behind some bushes. I can see its tail moving! I’ll wait here for you.” I turned the truck around and headed back. Sure enough, a car was parked on the shoulder, and a woman was waving me over. I eased my way into a parking space. She pointed eagerly toward the bushes. Parting the branches, I saw it immediately. And I had to stop. I looked closer, just to be absolutely sure. A laugh simply exploded from me. I tried to be polite, but it was hopeless. I was laughing as I walked back to the waiting woman, who was starting to look a little offended. I held out my prize. “Ma’am,” I said, trying to catch my breath. “I found your Fluffy.” There, in my hand was a colorful winter hat with a big, fluffy (毛茸茸的), 100% cotton pom-pom (绒球). 24. Why did the woman call Wildlife Services that morning? A. To rescue her long-lost pet. B. To return a newly found hat. C. To report a wild animal attack. D. To assist a possibly injured animal. 25.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个女士将一顶绒球帽误当作一个受伤小动物而反复向Wildlife Services求助的故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的““Perhaps it was someone’s loving cat or dog. Maybe a fox? I wasn’t sure. But it might be wounded and need help.” She sounded genuinely worried. She even called it “Fluffy.”(“也许那是某人的爱宠猫或狗。也许是一只狐狸？我不太确定。但它的身体可能受伤了，需要帮助。”她听起来确实很担心。她甚至还给它起了个名字叫“弗拉菲”。)”可知，女士之所以打电话，是因为怀疑有小动物受伤。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“She sounded genuinely worried. She even called it “Fluffy.”(她听起来确实很担心。她还给它起了个名字叫“弗拉菲”。)”和第三段的“The next day, the same lady called back.(第二天，那位女士又打来了电话。)”可知，女士因怀疑小动物受伤，反复给相关部门打电话，由此推知，这位女士是一个有社会责任感的人。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“A laugh simply exploded from me. I tried to be polite, but it was hopeless. (我突然大笑起来，声音响亮而欢快。尽管我试图保持礼貌，但已经无济于事了。)”可知，男人发现那个小动物不过是顶帽子的时候大笑起来，可知他被逗乐了。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，特别是第一段的““Wildlife Services. How may I help you?” A concerned woman’s voice described a possible injured animal on the roadside—something with brown, black, and white fur, moving in the wind.(“野生动物保护服务部门。有什么可以帮您的吗？”一位关切的女士的声音描述道，路边有一只可能受伤的动物——那是一只有着棕色、黑色和白色毛发的动物，在微风中移动着。)”可知，作者记叙了一段搞笑的经历，因此其目的是为了给读者们分享这段有趣的经历。故选C。 C If you have ever driven coast to coast across the United States, chances are that you have passed beneath the flight of a fearless songbird, the cliff swallow (崖燕). Unlike most wildlife that retreat from human footprint, the cliff swallow has survived alongside it. Originally a bird of the western mountains, it has, over the past century, colonized the Great Plains, building its mud nests beneath bridges — wonders of natural engineering like our own. For nearly forty years, researcher Charles Brown has conducted annual surveys of hundreds of these nesting colonies in Nebraska, seeking to understand the dynamics of swallow society. He has found that in western Nebraska, most cliff swallows live within a stone’s throw of a road. This choice of habitat is, of course, exceptionally dangerous. When Brown began studying swallows in the 1980s, he often picked up dead swallows on the roads. In 2012, however, Brown suddenly found, though, there was virtually no roadkill to be found. He’d collected twenty dead birds in 1984, when the project began, and twenty more in 1985 and 1986. Then the trend line went downward: fifteen in 1989, thirteen in 1991, eight in 2002. By 2011 it had dropped to four. Brown thought: somehow swallows had become harder to kill. By measuring the birds’ wings, he saw that the swallows killed by cars usually had longer wings than the ones he caught alive. Brown knew what this meant: The traffic was weeding clumsier, long-winged swallows from the population and favoring the quicker, short-winged ones — Darwinian selection in action. “Long ago,” Brown said, “cliff swallows lived mostly apart from humans. Now, they are so much a part of our world that our roads and bridges have changed their very genes.” The cliff swallows became rare winners in a world of concrete and steel. But this success came with a cost — the loss of the long-winged swallows and a permanent change to the birds’ nature. They had been shaped, forever, by the road. 28. What does the underlined part “retreat from” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Avoids. B. Expands. C. Erases. D. Reduces. 29. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By providing data. B. By extending a definition. C. By giving examples. D. By making a classification. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly talking about? A. Backgrounds of a study. B. Reasons for a phenomenon. C. Theories of natural selection. D. Assumptions about an experiment. 31. What did cliff swallows’ survival cost them? A. Their genes became abnormal. B. Their population declined sharply. C They were edged out of Great Plains. D. Long-winged swallows were weeded out. 【答案】28. A 29. A 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了崖燕在人类活动影响下的生存情况及其基因变化。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中划线词所在句“Unlike most wildlife that retreat from human footprint, the cliff swallow has survived alongside it. (与大多数retreat from人类足迹的野生动物不同，崖燕一直与人类共存。)”可知，崖燕能与人类共存，而大多数野生动物则相反，会“躲避”人类活动痕迹。“retreats from”为“避开，远离”之意，与“Avoid”意思相近。故选A项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“He’d collected twenty dead birds in 1984, when the project began, and twenty more in 1985 and 1986. Then the trend line went downward: fifteen in 1989, thirteen in 1991, eight in 2002. By 2011 it had dropped to four. (1984年项目开始时，他收集了20只死鸟，1985年和1986年又收集了20只。然后趋势线开始下降：1989年15只，1991年13只，2002年8只。到2011年，这一数字已经降至4只。)”可知，本段主要是通过提供数据来说明崖燕被车辆撞死的数量在逐年减少。故选A项。 【30题详解】 段落大意题。根据第四段中“By measuring the birds’ wings, he saw that the swallows killed by cars usually had longer wings than the ones he caught alive. Brown knew what this meant: The traffic was weeding clumsier, long-winged swallows from the population and favoring the quicker, short-winged ones — Darwinian selection in action. (通过测量鸟的翅膀，他发现被车撞死的崖燕的翅膀通常比他活捉的崖燕的翅膀要长。布朗知道这意味着什么：交通正在从种群中淘汰那些笨拙的长翼崖燕，而青睐那些更快、短翼的崖燕——达尔文的选择正在起作用。)”可知，本段主要解释了为什么崖燕被车撞死的数量在减少，即交通对崖燕种群进行了自然选择，使得短翼崖燕更适应环境。故选B项。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But this success came with a cost — the loss of the long-winged swallows and a permanent change to the birds’ nature. (但这种成功是有代价的——长翼崖燕的消失和鸟类本性的永久改变。)”可知，崖燕的生存是以长翼崖燕的消失为代价的。故选D项。 D We’ve all had that edgy feeling, that urge to be doing something — anything — other than what we’re doing right now. It’s boredom. Boredom doesn’t just color the time spent sitting in waiting rooms or watching dull television shows. It can also come into the larger patterns of our lives, such as our jobs and relationships. And it brings a message. Just like pain. Pain is your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong, and that you need to do something about it. Boredom is telling you that what you’re doing is not a good fit for the mental or emotional resources you have at that moment. You may have heard that boredom increases creativity, and some research seems to suggest that it does. But more recent research has called the idea into question, says Andreas Elpidorou, author of Propelled: How Boredom, Frustration, and Anticipation Lead Us to the Good Life. A 2016 study found that boredom probably does not generate creativity. Practice does. In fact, the study found that in many cases, boredom damaged fluency in creative tasks. However, there may be a connection between boredom and creativity. Elpidorou points out that you can respond to boredom in creative ways. And that gets us to what may be the most important fact about boredom: Whether it’s helpful or harmful depends on how you respond to it. When that edgy feeling crops up, it’s easy to immediately reach for your phone and start scrolling (滚动) on social media, or worse. Individuals who are prone (易受……影响的) to boredom are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol, according to some research. On the other hand, boredom can push you toward more meaningful tasks, says Elpidorou. When boredom strikes, you might call a friend you haven’t heard from in a while, go for a walk or to the gym, or pick up your guitar and play that tune you’ve been working on. The trick, of course, is to pay attention to that boredom alert and make a conscious decision about how to respond. 32. What do “pain” and “boredom” have in common? A. They generate a need for change. B. They relates to large patterns of life. C. They reflect similar mental problems. D. They’re indicators of physical harm. 33. What might the recent research have discovered? A. Boredom enhances creativity. B. Creativity arises from practice. C. Creative tasks improve quality of life. D. Boredom correlates with language fluency. 34. What might Elpidorou suggest doing to deal with boredom? A. Paying no attention to it. B. Scrolling on social media. C. Drowning it in alcohol. D. Choosing meaningful engagement. 35. Which is the best title of the text? A. The Essence of Boredom B. The Origin of Creativity C. Creativity: A Mental Trick D. Boredom: A Critical Crossroad 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。 文章主要讲述了无聊的本质、其与创造力的关系以及应对无聊的方式，无聊既可能带来负面影响，也可能推动人们从事更有意义的活动。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。 第一段中“Just like pain. Pain is your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong, and that you need to do something about it. Boredom is telling you that what you’re doing is not a good fit for the mental or emotional resources you have at that moment.(就像疼痛一样。疼痛是身体告诉你出了问题，需要采取措施的方式。无聊告诉你，你正在做的事情并不适合你当下的心理或情感资源)”表明疼痛和无聊的共同点在于它们都产生改变的需求。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。 第二段中“A 2016 study found that boredom probably does not generate creativity. Practice does.(2016年的一项研究发现，无聊可能不会产生创造力。实践才会)”可知，最近的调查发现创造力源于实践。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。 根据最后一段中“On the other hand, boredom can push you toward more meaningful tasks, says Elpidorou.(另一方面，Elpidorou说，无聊可以推动你从事更有意义的任务)”可推知，Elpidorou建议选择有意义的参与来应对无聊。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。 文章先介绍了无聊的本质，接着探讨了无聊与创造力的关系，最后强调了应对无聊的方式至关重要，无聊可能带来负面影响，也可能推动人们从事更有意义的活动，是一个关键转折点。D选项“Boredom: A Critical Crossroad(无聊：一个关键的转折点)”最符合文章主旨，适合作为标题。故选D。 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。 I can no longer recall the first postcard I ever received, or even the one I first sent. ____36____ Or was it from my aunt, who always seemed to be wandering somewhere far away? The memory has faded, but what remains clear to me are the countless reasons for sending a postcard. Postcards make the finest souvenirs (纪念品). ____37____ Whether you’re wandering through the green hills of Scotland or on a road trip across Texas, postcards are wonderfully light and can be put neatly into all sorts of places — between the pages of a book, inside a camera bag, or within a laptop sleeve. In an age where we can connect instantly through the internet, postcards remain one of the warmest ways to keep in touch with friends and family. ____38____ That tangible (有形的) connection — the feel of the paper — makes memories more vivid and lasting. ____39____ When you receive a handwritten card from a friend, sent from a place you’ve never been and filled with their personal stories, it’s hard not to feel inspired to one day set out and create your own. Best of all, just about anything can become a postcard. I’m not joking. ____40____ I was living in New England at the time and wanted to share the brilliant colors of the season with her back home. I carefully chose a red-and-orange leaf, slipped it into an envelope, and sent it off. I wasn’t sure it would survive the journey through the mail, but to my delight, it arrived perfectly. A. They never weigh down your luggage. B. Sending postcards is common practice. C. Postcards also plant dreams of travel within us. D. I once mailed a beautiful autumn leaf to a friend. E. Is it necessary to send postcards from your place? F. Was it a greeting from my father’s business trips? G. Nothing compares to holding a physical card in your hand. 【答案】36. F 37. A 38. G 39. C 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者送和收明信片的经历，以及对其的看法。 【36题详解】 根据后文“Or was it from my aunt, who always seemed to be wandering somewhere far away?(还是说这是来自我的姑妈呢？她似乎总是行踪不定，不知漂泊在何处)”可知，后文用“Or was it from my aunt”表选择疑问，前文需对应相同句式，F项“这是不是我父亲出差时给我留下的问候信息呢？”符合“or”连接的选择逻辑，衔接自然。故选F。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Postcards make the finest souvenirs (纪念品).(明信片是最棒的纪念品)”以及后文“Whether you’re wandering through the green hills of Scotland or on a road trip across Texas, postcards are wonderfully light and can be put neatly into all sorts of places — between the pages of a book, inside a camera bag, or within a laptop sleeve.(无论你是漫步在苏格兰的青山之中，还是驾车穿越德克萨斯州的公路，明信片都十分轻便，可以整齐地放置在各种地方——比如书页之间、相机包里或者笔记本电脑的保护套内)”可知，前文提明信片是“最好的纪念品”，后文说其“轻便、可整齐放置”，A项“它们从不加重行李负担”承接“轻便”特性，呼应后文储存方式。故选A。 【38题详解】 根据后文“That tangible (有形的) connection — the feel of the paper — makes memories more vivid and lasting.(那种实实在在的联系——纸张的触感——能让记忆变得更加生动和持久)”可知，后文强调“有形的连接——纸张的触感”，G项“没有什么比得上手中拿着实体卡片”直接点出“实体”属性，引出下文对触感的描述。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据后文“When you receive a handwritten card from a friend, sent from a place you’ve never been and filled with their personal stories, it’s hard not to feel inspired to one day set out and create your own.(当你收到一位朋友寄来的手写贺卡时，那贺卡来自一个你从未去过的地方，里面还充满了他们个人的故事，这时你很难不被这种激励所感染，从而萌生出有一天也要踏上旅程、去创造属于自己的美好事物的想法)”可知，该空是一个独立的段落，通常是一个主题句。后文描述了收到来自远方的明信片会激发旅行的渴望。因此，空处需要填入一个概括此意的句子。C选项“明信片也在我们心中种下了旅行的梦想”符合语境，故选C。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Best of all, just about anything can become a postcard. I’m not joking.(最棒的是，几乎任何事物都能变成一张明信片。我可不是在开玩笑)”以及后文“I was living in New England at the time and wanted to share the brilliant colors of the season with her back home. I carefully chose a red-and-orange leaf, slipped it into an envelope, and sent it off. I wasn’t sure it would survive the journey through the mail, but to my delight, it arrived perfectly.(当时我住在新英格兰地区，我想把这个季节绚丽的色彩寄给她在家乡的家人。我精心挑选了一片红橙色的树叶，将其装进信封里，然后寄了出去。我不知道它能否顺利通过邮件传递到达目的地，但令我惊喜的是，它完好无损地送达了)”可知，前文说“几乎任何东西都能变成明信片”，后文具体描述“寄秋叶给朋友”的经历，D项“我曾寄过一片漂亮的秋叶给朋友”是对前文观点的举例验证。故选D。 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It’s 3 a.m. I ____41____ the phone on the wall, and end the conversation with my friends.

When ____56____ (interest), they make eye contact and lean forward, sometimes even taking notes or nodding along. But if the class ____57____ (bore) them, they look at watches or count the minutes, often with slumped shoulders and distant eyes. Daydreaming students stare out of windows ____58____ chins on hands, completely lost in their own worlds. ____59____ (trouble) students may have arms crossed, wear frowns, or hide faces in hands, showing ____60____ (anxious) or sadness. Sometimes, red eyes indicate much ____61____ (deep) problems than imagined, maybe sleepless nights or emotional turmoil (混乱). Reading my students’ body language helps me decide when ____62____ (intervene), or adjust class activities. Being attentive to these subtle cues (暗示) and responding ____63____ (appropriate) ensures every student feels seen. After all, education isn’t just about spreading knowledge — it’s about connecting with young ____64____ (mind).

The stretch of summer ahead seemed perfect for trying something new. My mother had suggested finding a local job, perhaps working at the community library sorting books or helping with checkouts. “It’ll be good for you. You’ve always loved books,” she said. That was true. I had even organized a very successful book club at my senior high. Thus, when I saw a call for volunteers at the Community Center, I applied specifically for library work—shelving books, helping with checkouts, the quiet tasks I knew I could handle. It sounded perfect. Then, the letter from the Community Center came. It read: “We’re delighted to welcome you as our Summer Reading Guide for children aged 8-9.” My hands trembled. Guide? Teaching? This wasn’t what I’d signed up for. Panicked, I called the program director. “There must be a mistake,” I said. “I applied for library work, not teaching.” “I understand,” she said gently, “but our children’s program is desperate. The previous teacher left suddenly. We need someone who genuinely loves reading, and your book club experience stands out.” I asked her to let me think it over and promised to give her my answer tomorrow. That night, I confessed (坦白) my fears to my mother. “I’m not ready for this. What if I disappoint them?” She reminded me, “Remember your first book club meeting? You were nervous then too, but you created something wonderful. These children don’t need a perfect teacher—they need someone who can share the magic of stories.” Her words sparked (引发) an idea. What if I recreated the book club experience, but made it even more engaging for young readers? I rushed into the study and looked through the pile of children’s books on my desk. I felt a new sense of purpose. 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 morning, I called the director back. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The following Monday, I stood before a group of bright-eyed children. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 The next morning, I called the director back. My heart pounded as the phone rang, but my voice was firm when I said, “I’ll do it.” I explained my book club idea—transforming the classroom into an interactive storytelling space where children could act out scenes, create artwork inspired by the stories, and even rewrite endings together. The director’s enthusiastic response was immediate. “That sounds fantastic! We’ll give you full support.” Hanging up, I felt a wave of nervous excitement washing over. I spent the rest of the week reading different children’s books, designing simple discussion questions, and planning creative activities, my initial anxiety slowly being replaced by a budding sense of anticipation. The following Monday, I stood before a group of bright-eyed children. Their curious gazes fixed on me, and for a moment, my mind went blank. Then, I remembered my mother’s words. I held up our first book, took a deep breath, and began not just reading, but performing the story, giving characters silly voices and encouraging the children to guess what might happen next. When I paused to ask, “What would you do if you were the brave mouse in this story?” a forest of hands shot up. Their answers were imaginative and profound. As they eagerly started drawing their own book covers and debating the hero’s choices, the room was filled with energy. I looked at their engaged, smiling faces and realized I wasn’t just teaching; we were discovering the magic of stories together, and my summer had become far more perfect than I had ever planned. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述作者意外成为儿童阅读指导老师，从最初的恐惧到最终成功开展阅读活动的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句“第二天早上，我给那位主管回了电话。”可推断，本段可以描写主人公如何回复社区中心主管，以及如何准备这个意外的教学任务。 ② 由第二段首句“接下来的那个周一，我站在一群目光明亮的孩子们面前。”可推断，本段可以描述作者第一次面对孩子们时的场景和互动过程。 2. 续写线索： 接到回复电话→提出创新想法→获得支持→第一次上课→克服紧张→成功互动→感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①（心脏）剧烈地跳动：pound/ vigorous beating ② 解释：explain/interpreter ③ 代替：replace/take the place of 情感类： ① 紧张：a wave of nervous excitement / thrilled yet anxious ② 焦虑：anxiety/concern/uneasy ③ 好奇：curious/ eager to know 【点睛】【高分句型1】I explained my book club idea—transforming the classroom into an interactive storytelling space where children could act out scenes, create artwork inspired by the stories, and even rewrite endings together.（运用了where引导定语从句和过去分词作定语） 【高分句型2】 I held up our first book, took a deep breath, and began not just reading, but performing the story, giving characters silly voices and encouraging the children to guess what might happen next.（运用了现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度秋季高二期中考试 高二英语试卷 考试时间：2025年11月7日上午8:00-10:00 试卷满分：150分 注意事项： 1. 答题前先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并认真核准准考证号条形码上的以上信息，将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑；非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答；字体工整，笔迹清楚。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

She even called it “Fluffy.” So, I set off in the morning wind, driving along the stretch of road she mentioned. Beautiful day. But there was no sign of any animal, injured or otherwise. I made a note and headed back, figuring the creature might have moved on. Case closed, or so I thought. The next day, the same lady called back. I told her my findings, and she seemed relieved. I thought that was the end of it. But not an hour later, my phone rang again. It was her. Her voice was a mix of excitement and urgency. “I see it again! It’s farther down the road, behind some bushes. I can see its tail moving! I’ll wait here for you.” I turned the truck around and headed back. Sure enough, a car was parked on the shoulder, and a woman was waving me over. I eased my way into a parking space. She pointed eagerly toward the bushes. Parting the branches, I saw it immediately. And I had to stop. I looked closer, just to be absolutely sure. A laugh simply exploded from me. I tried to be polite, but it was hopeless. I was laughing as I walked back to the waiting woman, who was starting to look a little offended. I held out my prize. “Ma’am,” I said, trying to catch my breath. “I found your Fluffy.” There, in my hand was a colorful winter hat with a big, fluffy (毛茸茸的), 100% cotton pom-pom (绒球). 24. Why did the woman call Wildlife Services that morning? A. To rescue her long-lost pet. B. To return a newly found hat. C. To report a wild animal attack. D. To assist a possibly injured animal. 25. Which of the following best describes the woman? A. Nosy. B. Socially responsible. C. Inflexible. D. Self-important. 26. How did the author feel when he eventually found Fluffy? A. He felt really offended. B. He’s amused by the incident. C. He felt awkward about the result. D. He’s amazed to uncover the truth. 27. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To praise a worthy citizen. B. To promote wildlife protection. C. To share a humorous experience. D. To introduce a governmental agency. C If you have ever driven coast to coast across the United States, chances are that you have passed beneath the flight of a fearless songbird, the cliff swallow (崖燕). Unlike most wildlife that retreat from human footprint, the cliff swallow has survived alongside it. Originally a bird of the western mountains, it has, over the past century, colonized the Great Plains, building its mud nests beneath bridges — wonders of natural engineering like our own. For nearly forty years, researcher Charles Brown has conducted annual surveys of hundreds of these nesting colonies in Nebraska, seeking to understand the dynamics of swallow society. He has found that in western Nebraska, most cliff swallows live within a stone’s throw of a road. This choice of habitat is, of course, exceptionally dangerous. When Brown began studying swallows in the 1980s, he often picked up dead swallows on the roads. In 2012, however, Brown suddenly found, though, there was virtually no roadkill to be found. He’d collected twenty dead birds in 1984, when the project began, and twenty more in 1985 and 1986. Then the trend line went downward: fifteen in 1989, thirteen in 1991, eight in 2002. By 2011 it had dropped to four. Brown thought: somehow swallows had become harder to kill. By measuring the birds’ wings, he saw that the swallows killed by cars usually had longer wings than the ones he caught alive. Brown knew what this meant: The traffic was weeding clumsier, long-winged swallows from the population and favoring the quicker, short-winged ones — Darwinian selection in action. “Long ago,” Brown said, “cliff swallows lived mostly apart from humans. Now, they are so much a part of our world that our roads and bridges have changed their very genes.” The cliff swallows became rare winners in a world of concrete and steel. But this success came with a cost — the loss of the long-winged swallows and a permanent change to the birds’ nature. They had been shaped, forever, by the road. 28. What does the underlined part “retreat from” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Avoids. B. Expands. C. Erases. D. Reduces. 29. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By providing data. B. By extending a definition. C. By giving examples. D. By making a classification. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly talking about? A. Backgrounds of a study. B. Reasons for a phenomenon. C. Theories of natural selection. D. Assumptions about an experiment. 31. What did cliff swallows’ survival cost them? A. Their genes became abnormal. B. Their population declined sharply. C. They were edged out of Great Plains. D. Long-winged swallows were weeded out. D We’ve all had that edgy feeling, that urge to be doing something — anything — other than what we’re doing right now. It’s boredom. Boredom doesn’t just color the time spent sitting in waiting rooms or watching dull television shows. It can also come into the larger patterns of our lives, such as our jobs and relationships. And it brings a message. Just like pain. Pain is your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong, and that you need to do something about it. Boredom is telling you that what you’re doing is not a good fit for the mental or emotional resources you have at that moment. You may have heard that boredom increases creativity, and some research seems to suggest that it does. But more recent research has called the idea into question, says Andreas Elpidorou, author of Propelled: How Boredom, Frustration, and Anticipation Lead Us to the Good Life. A 2016 study found that boredom probably does not generate creativity. Practice does. In fact, the study found that in many cases, boredom damaged fluency in creative tasks. However, there may be a connection between boredom and creativity. Elpidorou points out that you can respond to boredom in creative ways. And that gets us to what may be the most important fact about boredom: Whether it’s helpful or harmful depends on how you respond to it. When that edgy feeling crops up, it’s easy to immediately reach for your phone and start scrolling (滚动) on social media, or worse. Individuals who are prone (易受……影响的) to boredom are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol, according to some research. On the other hand, boredom can push you toward more meaningful tasks, says Elpidorou. When boredom strikes, you might call a friend you haven’t heard from in a while, go for a walk or to the gym, or pick up your guitar and play that tune you’ve been working on. The trick, of course, is to pay attention to that boredom alert and make a conscious decision about how to respond. 32. What do “pain” and “boredom” have in common? A. They generate a need for change. B They relates to large patterns of life. C. They reflect similar mental problems. D. They’re indicators of physical harm. 33. What might the recent research have discovered? A. Boredom enhances creativity. B. Creativity arises from practice. C. Creative tasks improve quality of life. D. Boredom correlates with language fluency. 34. What might Elpidorou suggest doing to deal with boredom? A. Paying no attention to it. B. Scrolling on social media. C. Drowning it in alcohol. D. Choosing meaningful engagement. 35. Which is the best title of the text? A. The Essence of Boredom B. The Origin of Creativity C. Creativity: A Mental Trick D. Boredom: A Critical Crossroad 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。 I can no longer recall the first postcard I ever received, or even the one I first sent. ____36____ Or was it from my aunt, who always seemed to be wandering somewhere far away? The memory has faded, but what remains clear to me are the countless reasons for sending a postcard. Postcards make the finest souvenirs (纪念品). ____37____ Whether you’re wandering through the green hills of Scotland or on a road trip across Texas, postcards are wonderfully light and can be put neatly into all sorts of places — between the pages of a book, inside a camera bag, or within a laptop sleeve.

The stretch of summer ahead seemed perfect for trying something new. My mother had suggested finding a local job, perhaps working at the community library sorting books or helping with checkouts. “It’ll be good for you. You’ve always loved books,” she said. That was true. I had even organized a very successful book club at my senior high. Thus, when I saw a call for volunteers at the Community Center, I applied specifically for library work—shelving books, helping with checkouts, the quiet tasks I knew I could handle. It sounded perfect. Then, the letter from the Community Center came. It read: “We’re delighted to welcome you as our Summer Reading Guide for children aged 8-9.” My hands trembled. Guide? Teaching? This wasn’t what I’d signed up for. Panicked, I called the program director. “There must be a mistake,” I said. “I applied for library work, not teaching.” “I understand,” she said gently, “but our children’s program is desperate. The previous teacher left suddenly. We need someone who genuinely loves reading, and your book club experience stands out.” I asked her to let me think it over and promised to give her my answer tomorrow. That night, I confessed (坦白) my fears to my mother. “I’m not ready for this. What if I disappoint them?” She reminded me, “Remember your first book club meeting? You were nervous then too, but you created something wonderful. These children don’t need a perfect teacher—they need someone who can share the magic of stories.” Her words sparked (引发) an idea. What if I recreated the book club experience but made it even more engaging for young readers? I rushed into the study and looked through the pile of children’s books on my desk. I felt a new sense of purpose. 注意： 1. 续写词数应150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, I called the director back. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The following Monday, I stood before a group of bright-eyed children. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $英语听力第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。I wanted to eat chicken and soup for lunch, but I change my mind now.
