B 【解析】 【原文】M: All right, class. Before we get started, I want to make an announcement. The quiz I had planned for today will have to wait until next Tuesday. I didn’t have time to get it ready, so you have a few extra days to study. Now, let’s get to today’s topic. Some of you may not like science, but you should at least respect it because it adds so much to our lives. Recently, I read about a newly created plastic that changes color when it’s stretched. How did the scientists dream up this idea? They could never have done it without observing nature. While studying certain insects, the scientists found that the insects’ shells changed color when looked at from different angles. They immediately thought of ways to use that science to benefit humans. The scientists plan to use this plastic on food packages to tell us when our food goes bad and on our money to make it more difficult for criminals to copy. So when you’re walking to class each day, try to take some time to observe nature around you. You never know when you’ll have a bright idea that can change how we live. 第二部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2.5分，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，从每篇短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Take part in an amazing two-week adventure as a volunteer in Kenya, working to protect animals on the beautiful plains. Experience the joy of seeing wonderful creatures in their natural home while helping with important animal protection work. The DAY-BY-DAY schedule Day 1: Arrive in Nairobi on a Saturday. You will be picked up from the airport and spend your first night in a comfortable lodge in the city. Day 2: After breakfast, you will be collected early from the lodge and driven to the wildlife site, which takes about two hours. You will receive a friendly welcome and begin your first day of animal work! Day 3+: On most days, you will spend time in the field, watching animals and helping with tasks to protect them. On a sunny day, you might go on a safari (观赏旅游) to see elephants, lions, and other animals! Last Day: On your final day, you will return to Nairobi for your flight home or to continue your travels. The cost is £1,200, which covers the volunteer program, a place to stay, airport transfers, one night in a lodge, daily breakfasts, and lunches during your work days. You can extend your stay for an extra £400 per week. This is a great experience! Many volunteers choose to stay for four weeks, with some extending to six weeks and still wanting to stay longer. If you have questions about this adventure or need help, we are here to assist you! 21. What can you do on the third day if the weather is nice? A. Return to Nairobi. B. Go on a safari. C. Attend a welcome party. D. Drive to the wildlife site. 22. What is included in the cost of £1,200? A. Three meals on all days. B. All transportation within Kenya. C. Accommodation and dinners throughout the trip. D. Airport transfers and daily lunches on work days. 23. Where is the passage probably taken from? A. A travel guide. B. A geography book. C. A nature magazine. D. A health instruction. 【答案】21. B 22. D 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了在肯尼亚进行为期两周的动物保护志愿者活动的相关信息，包括日程安排、费用及活动体验等。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Day 3+部分中“On a sunny day, you might go on a safari (观赏旅游) to see elephants, lions, and other animals!(在阳光明媚的日子里，你可能会去观赏旅游，看看大象、狮子和其他动物！)”可知，如果天气好，第三天可以去观赏旅游。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The cost is £1,200, which covers the volunteer program, a place to stay, airport transfers, one night in a lodge, daily breakfasts, and lunches during your work days.(费用是1200英镑，包括志愿者项目、住宿、机场接送、在旅馆住一晚、工作日每日早餐和午餐。)”可知，1200英镑的费用包括机场接送和工作日的每日午餐。故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“Take part in an amazing two-week adventure as a volunteer in Kenya, working to protect animals on the beautiful plains. Experience the joy of seeing wonderful creatures in their natural home while helping with important animal protection work.(作为一名志愿者，在肯尼亚参加为期两周的奇妙冒险，在美丽的平原上保护动物。在帮助重要的动物保护工作的同时，体验在自然家园中看到奇妙生物的乐趣。)”可知，本文介绍了在肯尼亚进行为期两周的动物保护志愿者活动的相关信息，因此这篇文章可能来自旅游指南。故选A。 B One night, I received a message from my former classmate, someone I hadn’t spoken to in 15 years. “Hey Mary,” she said. “I know you’ve always been an animal lover. I have a mini pig that is not getting along with my dogs. So I can’t keep the pig.” Of course, the whole situation was strange, but I’ve always been a trusting person. I replied “Let me do some research and I’ll get back to you.” I knew nothing about mini pigs. I didn’t know what they ate; and I had no idea how big they got. Once I started doing some Internet research, I found a few people claiming that “there’s no such thing as a mini pig,” but I was blinded by my sudden obsession and my faith in my onetime friend. She had said the pig was six months old and this mini pig would grow to be about 70 pounds, maximum. That was pretty close to the size of Shelby, one of my dogs. So I told my former classmate that I’d take the animal. It’s intractable enough bringing a pig back to the house I share with two dogs, two cats and my husband, Derek. But I knew I wanted the pig and the day finally came. When Derek went back, he stood in the doorway like a statue. Every emotion other than happiness flashed across his face. He was extremely angry. The only positive thing I could say was, “She’s a mini pig! She’ll stay small!” Surprisingly, soon enough, the lovely pig smoothed things over by itself. Derek started talking about where the pig’s litter (窝)would go. You don’t care about “litter” of someone you’re getting rid of. However, a few months later, she’d started closing in on 80 pounds. It was becoming clear that I’d probably adopted a commercial pig and she was going to be enormous. While it might be unexpected, it’s more than worth it for the happiness she has added to our world. 24. What did the author do immediately after receiving her former classmate’s message? A. She decided to take the pig without hesitation. B. She discussed the matter with her husband Derek. C. She looked up information about mini pigs online. D. She asked the classmate about the pig’s habits. 25. The word “intractable” in the third paragraph most probably means ________. A. easy and comfortable B. difficult to handle C. exciting and interesting D. common and predictable 26. How did Derek feel when he first saw the pig? A. Curious and interested. B. Shocked and angry. C. Sympathetic and warm. D. Relaxed and joyful. 27. What is the main theme of the passage? A. The challenges and joys of adopting an unexpected pet. B. The importance of trusting old friends. C. The differences between mini pigs and commercial pigs. D. The need for researching before keeping a pet. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者收养迷你猪的经历，从决定收养到猪长大后的感受。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I replied “Let me do some research and I’ll get back to you”.(我回复说“让我做些研究，然后再回复你。”)”和第二段“Once I started doing some Internet research, I found a few people claiming that “there’s no such thing as a mini pig”.(一旦我开始做一些网络研究，我就发现有几个人声称“没有迷你猪这种东西”。)”可知，作者在收到老同学短信后立即在网上查找关于迷你猪的信息。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“It’s intractable enough bringing a pig back to the house I share with two dogs, two cats and my husband, Derek. But I knew I wanted the pig and the day finally came.(把一头猪带回我和两只狗、两只猫以及丈夫德里克同住的房子里，这件事已经够intractable了。但我知道我想要这头猪，这一天终于来了)”可知，家里已有多种宠物，再带猪回家是件麻烦事，由此可知，划线单词“intractable”意为“难以处理的”。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“When Derek went back, he stood in the door way like a statue. Every emotion other than happiness flashed across his face. He was extremely angry.(当德里克回去时，他像一尊雕像一样站在门口。除了快乐，他脸上闪过各种情绪。他非常生气。)”可知，德里克第一次看到这头猪时，他的表情除了快乐之外，闪过各种情绪，而且他非常生气，由此可推测出他此时应该是既震惊又愤怒。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段讲述了作者收到老同学的短信，老同学因为迷你猪和家里的狗相处不好，所以想把猪送给作者。第二段讲述了作者虽然对迷你猪一无所知，但还是决定收养它。第三段讲述了作者把猪带回家后，丈夫德里克看到猪时的反应。第四段讲述了这只猪越长越大，可能是一只商业猪，但作者一家仍然因为它的到来而感到快乐。因此，这篇文章主要讲述了作者收养了一只意想不到的宠物——一头猪，虽然养这头猪给作者一家带来了挑战，但是这头猪也给作者一家带来了快乐，所以这篇文章的主题应该是收养一只意想不到的宠物所带来的挑战和快乐。故选A。 C Of the 8,300 million tons of new plastic produced up to the end of 2015, 6,300 million tons have been thrown away. Most of that plastic waste is still with us, buried in landfills or polluting the environment. Micro plastics have been found in Antarctic sea ice, in the guts of animals that live in the deepest ocean trenches (海沟) and in drinking water around the world. But what if we could wave a magic wand and remove all plastics from our lives? For the sake of the planet, it would be an attractive prospect — but we’d quickly find out just how far plastic has spread to every aspect of our existence. In hospitals, the loss of plastic would be disastrous. “Imagine trying to run a dialysis (透析) unit with no plastic,” says Sharon George, senior lecturer in environmental sustainability and green technology at Keele University in the UK. Plastic is used in gloves, tubing, blood bags, sample tubes and more. Some everyday plastic items are also vital for protecting health. Face masks — including plastic-based surgical masks and respirators (呼吸面罩) — have helped slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus. “A mask that you have for COVID is related to our safety and the safety of others,” says George. “The impact of taking that away could be loss of life if you took it away on a big scale.” Our food system would also quickly come apart. We use packaging to protect food from damage in transit and preserve it long enough to reach supermarket shelves. “I cannot imagine how plastic would be replaced completely in our system,” says Eleni Iacovidou, a lecturer in environmental management at Brunel University London. Replacing plastic packaging would set off a chain reaction in the environment. While glass has some advantages over plastic, such as being endlessly recyclable, a one-liter glass bottle can weigh as much as 800g compared to a 40g plastic one. When those heavier bottles and jars need to be transported over long distances, carbon emissions grow even more. It’s clear that replacing one material with another won’t solve all our plastic problems. 28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To give a definition. B. To report on a study. C. To introduce an argument. D. To describe a phenomenon. 29. Why does Sharon George mention a dialysis unit? A. To show the high cost of plastic medical products. B. To illustrate plastic’s necessity in medical work. C. To explain how dialysis units are usually operated. D. To compare plastic with other medical materials. 30. What is Eleni Iacovidou’s attitude toward removing plastic totally in food system? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Optimistic. D. Uninterested. 31 What does the author want to convey through the text? A. Plastic is too important to human life and should never be replaced. B. Medical and food industries depend entirely on plastic for development. C. Plastic pollution is the most serious environmental issue worldwide. D. Solving plastic problems requires more than simply replacing it with other materials. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了塑料污染问题，并指出简单地用其他材料替代塑料并不能解决所有问题。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。第一段“Of the 8,300 million tons of new plastic produced up to the end of 2015, 6,300 million tons have been thrown away. Most of that plastic waste is still with us, buried in landfills or polluting the environment. Micro plastics have been found in Antarctic sea ice, in the guts of animals that live in the deepest ocean trenches (海沟) and in drinking water around the world.(截至2015年底，新生产的83亿吨塑料中，有63亿吨被丢弃。这些塑料垃圾大部分仍然和我们在一起，被埋在垃圾填埋场或污染环境。在南极海冰中、生活在最深海沟的动物体内以及世界各地的饮用水中都发现了微塑料。)”和第二段中“But what if we could wave a magic wand and remove all plastics from our lives?(但倘若我们挥一挥魔杖，就能从生活中去除所有塑料，那会怎样呢？)”可知，第一段列举了一系列数据和事实，其目的是为了引出下文关于“如果我们停止使用塑料，将会怎样？”的论题。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In hospitals, the loss of plastic would be disastrous. “Imagine trying to run a dialysis (透析) unit with no plastic,” says Sharon George, senior lecturer in environmental sustainability and green technology at Keele University in the UK. Plastic is used in gloves, tubing, blood bags, sample tubes and more.(在医院里，失去塑料将是灾难性的。英国基尔大学环境可持续性和绿色技术高级讲师Sharon George说：“想象一下，在没有塑料的情况下运行一个透析部门。”塑料用于手套、管子、血袋、样品管等。)”可知，Sharon George提到透析部门是为了说明塑料在医疗工作中的必要性。如果失去塑料，医疗工作将无法进行，因此塑料是医疗工作中不可或缺的材料。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Our food system would also quickly come apart. We use packaging to protect food from damage in transit and preserve it long enough to reach supermarket shelves. “I cannot imagine how plastic would be replaced completely in our system,” says Eleni Iacovidou, a lecturer in environmental management at Brunel University London.(我们的食品系统也会很快崩溃。我们使用包装来保护食品在运输过程中不受损坏，并使其保存足够长的时间以到达超市货架。伦敦布鲁内尔大学环境管理讲师Eleni Iacovidou说：“我无法想象在我们的系统中塑料如何被完全取代。”)”可知，Eleni Iacovidou认为在食品系统中完全取代塑料是不可想象的，因此她对完全去除食品系统中的塑料持怀疑态度。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第二段中“But what if we could wave a magic wand and remove all plastics from our lives?(但倘若我们挥一挥魔杖，就能从生活中去除所有塑料，那会怎样呢？)”、最后一段“It’s clear that replacing one material with another won’t solve all our plastic problems.(显然，用一种材料代替另一种材料并不能解决我们所有的塑料问题。)”可知，文章通过讨论塑料在医疗和食品系统中的重要性，以及替代塑料可能带来的问题，旨在传达一个信息：解决塑料问题不仅仅需要简单地用其他材料替代塑料。因此，作者想要通过这篇文章传达的信息是，解决塑料问题需要更多的措施，而不仅仅是替代材料。故选D。 D You stayed up too late browsing through your phone, answering emails or watching just one more episode. The next morning, you feel sleepy and impatient. That dessert or sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries. This isn't just about willpower. Your brain, short on rest, is pushing you toward quick, high-calorie fixes. Research shows that insufficient sleep disturbs hunger signals, weakens self-control and increases your risk of weight gain. Sleep inadequacy affects millions. More than one-third of U.S. adults regularly get less than seven hours of sleep per night. Nearly three-quarters of adolescents fall short of the recommended 8-10 hours of sleep during the school week. First responders, including nurses, firefighters and emergency workers, are especially vulnerable due to night shifts and varying uncontrollable schedules. These patterns disturb the body's internal clock and are linked to increased appetite, poor eating habits and elevated risks for obesity and metabolic disease. Studies show that after just one night of sleep deprivation, reward-related areas such as the amygdala (杏仁核), a part of the brain that drives motivation and reward-seeking, become more reactive to inviting food. Your brain becomes more excited by junk food and less capable of resisting it. Participants in sleep deprivation studies not only rated high-calorie foods as more desirable but were also more likely to choose them, regardless of how hungry they actually felt. Sleep is as important as diet and exercise in maintaining a healthy weight. Fortunately, even a few nights of consistent, high-quality sleep can help rebalance key systems and start to reverse some of these effects. In a culture that glorifies hustle and late nights, sleep is often treated as optional. So the next time you find yourself reaching for junk food after a short night, recognize that your biology is reacting to stress. Sleep is your most powerful tool for appetite control, energy regulation and long-term health. 32. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Sleep loss stimulates the brain for appetite. B. Staying up late can make people dizzy. C. High-calorie foods are more attractive. D. People are addicted to using mobile phones. 33. Why are first responders more likely to suffer from sleep deprivation? A. They bear expectation of the society. B. They have unhealthy lifestyles. C. They have demanding and shifting schedules. D. They have much pressure from the workload. 34. Why is the brain more likely to shift into the reward mode after sleep insufficiency? A. The brain reacts more quickly to the environment. B. Sleep loss changes how the brain evaluates food. C. The brain becomes more excited and unrealistic. D. Sleep loss changes how the body absorbs nutrients. 35. Which would be the best title for the text? A. How Sleep Loss Disturbs Body’s Internal Clock B. Why Quality Sleep Matters for Weight Management C. Sleep, Diet and Exercise: Keys to Healthy Living D. Sleep Shortage: The Hidden Driver of Junk Food Cravings 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍睡眠不足会干扰饥饿信号、削弱自控力，促使人们渴望高热量垃圾食品，进而增加体重等健康风险。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“You stayed up too late browsing through your phone, answering emails or watching just one more episode. The next morning, you feel sleepy and impatient. That dessert or sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries. This isn't just about willpower. Your brain, short on rest, is pushing you toward quick, high-calorie fixes.(你熬夜刷手机、回复邮件，或是忍不住再多看一集剧，到了第二天早上，难免昏昏欲睡、烦躁易怒。这时，那块甜点或三明治，突然比平日里常吃的酸奶配浆果诱人多了。这绝非意志力不足那么简单——大脑休息不够时，就会一个劲催你选择那些快捷高卡的食物来 “急救”)”可知，作者在第一段指出的现象是睡眠不足会刺激大脑产生食欲，渴望高热量食物。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“First responders, including nurses, firefighters and emergency workers, are especially vulnerable due to night shifts and varying uncontrollable schedules.(包括护士、消防员和急救人员在内的一线救援人员尤其容易受影响，因为他们需要上夜班，且日程安排多变且难以控制。)”可知，一线救援人员更易睡眠不足是因为他们的工作要求高、日程安排灵活多变。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Studies show that after just one night of sleep deprivation, reward-related areas such as the amygdala (杏仁核), a part of the brain that drives motivation and reward-seeking, become more reactive to inviting food. Your brain becomes more excited by junk food and less capable of resisting it.(研究表明，只需经历一晚的睡眠不足，大脑中与奖励相关的区域（比如杏仁核——这是大脑中驱动动机与寻求奖励行为的部分），就会对诱人的食物变得更加敏感。此时，你的大脑会对垃圾食品表现出更强的兴奋感，同时抵抗它的能力也会下降。)”可知，睡眠不足后大脑更易进入奖励模式，是因为睡眠不足改变了大脑对食物的评估方式，让其对高热量垃圾食品更敏感。故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章核心围绕“睡眠不足”与“渴望垃圾食品”的关联展开，第一段引出睡眠不足让人渴望高热量食物的现象，第二段说明睡眠不足的普遍情况及对特定人群的影响，第三段解释睡眠不足影响大脑对食物评估的原理，第四段强调睡眠对健康体重的重要性。D项“睡眠不足：垃圾食品渴望的隐藏推手”为最佳标题。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最终选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody gets angry, but out-of-control anger isn’t good for you or those around you. So here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger: Relax. Breathe deeply from your stomach.___36___. Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience. Change the way you think. When you’re angry, your thinking can get exaggerated.___37___. For instance, instead of telling yourself, “Oh, it’s terrible! Everything’s ruined,” tell yourself, “It’s understandable that I’m upset about it, but it’s not the end of the world.” ___38___. Statements like “This never works.” or “You’re always forgetting things.” will make you feel your anger is justified and there’s no way to solve the problem.

Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. And take your time before answering. Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, think carefully about what you want to say.

So, when you feel that anger comes the next time, picture yourself as a king or queen, walking around, admired by everybody, and getting your own way in every situation. The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes, the more likely it is to put a smile on your face. That will help you realize that the things you’re angry about are really not very important. A. Be careful with words like “never” or “always” B. Rushing to respond often leads to regretful words C. Taking a short walk can also ease tense feelings D. Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones E. This kind of extreme thinking fuels anger unnecessarily F. “Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective G. Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy” 【答案】36. G 37. D 38. A 39. B 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了五种简单策略来帮助人们学会如何管理愤怒情绪。 【36题详解】 由上文“Relax. Breathe deeply from your stomach.(放松。从腹部深呼吸。)”及下文“Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience.(对自己重复这句话，想象一个放松的时刻和经历。)”可知，本空应介绍一种放松的方法，且与“话”或“词语”有关。G选项“Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy”(然后慢慢地重复一个平静的词或短语，比如“放松”)”能够承接上文，说明深呼吸后要重复一个平静的词或短语，符合题意。故选G。 【37题详解】 由上文“Change the way you think. When you’re angry, your thinking can get exaggerated.(改变你的思维方式。当你生气的时候，你的思维会变得夸张。)”可知，本空应介绍如何改变夸张的思维方式。D选项“Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones(试着用更合理的想法来取代这些想法)”能够承接上文，说明要改变夸张的思维方式，用更合理的想法来取代，符合题意。故选D。 【38题详解】 由下文“Statements like “This never works.” or “You’re always forgetting things.” will make you feel your anger is justified and there’s no way to solve the problem.(像“这从来都不管用。”或“你总是忘记事情。”这样的陈述会让你觉得你的愤怒是合理的，而且没有办法解决问题。)”可知，本空应介绍要避免使用某些词语。A选项“Be careful with words like “never” or “always”(小心使用“从不”或“总是”这样的词)”能够引起下文，说明要避免使用“从不”或“总是”这样的绝对化词语，符合题意。故选A。 【39题详解】 由上文“Angry people tend to jump to conclusions.(生气的人往往会急于下结论。)”及下文“Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. And take your time before answering.(仔细听对方在说什么。在回答之前，慢慢来。)”可知，本空应介绍生气的人急于下结论的后果。B选项“Rushing to respond often leads to regretful words(急于回应往往会导致后悔的话)”能够承上启下，说明生气的人急于下结论，急于回应，这往往会导致说出后悔的话，符合题意。故选B。 【40题详解】 由上文“Use humor. Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think “things ought to go my way!”(使用幽默。心理学家说，非常生气的人倾向于认为“事情应该按我的方式发展！”)”及下文“So, when you feel that anger comes the next time, picture yourself as a king or queen, walking around, admired by everybody, and getting your own way in every situation.(所以，当你下次感到愤怒的时候，想象自己是一个国王或王后，四处走动，受到每个人的钦佩，在每种情况下都随心所欲。)”可知，本空应介绍幽默的作用。F选项““Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective(“愚蠢的幽默”可以帮助你获得更平衡的视角)”能够承上启下，说明使用幽默，特别是“愚蠢的幽默”，可以帮助生气的人获得更平衡的视角，符合题意。故选F。 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。 I suffered from Asperger’s (阿斯伯格综合征) in my childhood.

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 (自卑的) 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? 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. I, together with another three classmates, signed up for the relay race. We trained for it and discussed strategies together, none paying attention to my acne. Because of my advantage in speed, I was even assigned to run the last leg, which was the most crucial part. 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。 Then came the long-awaited sports day. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The experience was a turning point to my junior life. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 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 experience was a turning point to 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，讲述了作者曾经因为长青春痘感到自卑，成绩急剧下滑。某次学校举办运动会，作者在朋友的鼓励下，参加了比赛，并且取得了很好的成绩，找回了自信。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“接下来是期待已久的运动会”可知，第一段可描写作者参加比赛的经过以及同学的鼓励。 ②由第二段首句内容“这次经历是我青年生活的转折点”可知，第二段可描写作者的感悟以及明白了友谊的真谛。 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超过：overtake/surpass ②抓住：grab/seize ③重视：value/attach importance to 情绪类 ①激动地：excitedly/with excitement ②欣赏：admiration/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] 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] Though acne still occasionally troubled me, I stopped hiding behind my hair.

B One night, I received a message from my former classmate, someone I hadn’t spoken to in 15 years. “Hey Mary,” she said. “I know you’ve always been an animal lover. I have a mini pig that is not getting along with my dogs. So I can’t keep the pig.” Of course, the whole situation was strange, but I’ve always been a trusting person. I replied “Let me do some research and I’ll get back to you.” I knew nothing about mini pigs. I didn’t know what they ate; and I had no idea how big they got. Once I started doing some Internet research, I found a few people claiming that “there’s no such thing as a mini pig,” but I was blinded by my sudden obsession and my faith in my onetime friend. She had said the pig was six months old and this mini pig would grow to be about 70 pounds, maximum. That was pretty close to the size of Shelby, one of my dogs. So I told my former classmate that I’d take the animal. It’s intractable enough bringing a pig back to the house I share with two dogs, two cats and my husband, Derek. But I knew I wanted the pig and the day finally came. When Derek went back, he stood in the doorway like a statue. Every emotion other than happiness flashed across his face. He was extremely angry. The only positive thing I could say was, “She’s a mini pig! She’ll stay small!” Surprisingly, soon enough, the lovely pig smoothed things over by itself. Derek started talking about where the pig’s litter (窝)would go. You don’t care about “litter” of someone you’re getting rid of. However, a few months later, she’d started closing in on 80 pounds. It was becoming clear that I’d probably adopted a commercial pig and she was going to be enormous. While it might be unexpected, it’s more than worth it for the happiness she has added to our world. 24. What did the author do immediately after receiving her former classmate’s message? A. She decided to take the pig without hesitation. B. She discussed the matter with her husband Derek. C. She looked up information about mini pigs online. D. She asked the classmate about the pig’s habits. 25. The word “intractable” in the third paragraph most probably means ________. A. easy and comfortable B. difficult to handle C. exciting and interesting D. common and predictable 26. How did Derek feel when he first saw the pig? A. Curious and interested. B. Shocked and angry. C. Sympathetic and warm. D. Relaxed and joyful. 27. What is the main theme of the passage? A. The challenges and joys of adopting an unexpected pet. B. The importance of trusting old friends. C. The differences between mini pigs and commercial pigs. D. The need for researching before keeping a pet. C Of the 8,300 million tons of new plastic produced up to the end of 2015, 6,300 million tons have been thrown away. Most of that plastic waste is still with us, buried in landfills or polluting the environment. Micro plastics have been found in Antarctic sea ice, in the guts of animals that live in the deepest ocean trenches (海沟) and in drinking water around the world. But what if we could wave a magic wand and remove all plastics from our lives? For the sake of the planet, it would be an attractive prospect — but we’d quickly find out just how far plastic has spread to every aspect of our existence. In hospitals, the loss of plastic would be disastrous. “Imagine trying to run a dialysis (透析) unit with no plastic,” says Sharon George, senior lecturer in environmental sustainability and green technology at Keele University in the UK. Plastic is used in gloves, tubing, blood bags, sample tubes and more. Some everyday plastic items are also vital for protecting health. Face masks — including plastic-based surgical masks and respirators (呼吸面罩) — have helped slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus. “A mask that you have for COVID is related to our safety and the safety of others,” says George. “The impact of taking that away could be loss of life if you took it away on a big scale.” Our food system would also quickly come apart. We use packaging to protect food from damage in transit and preserve it long enough to reach supermarket shelves. “I cannot imagine how plastic would be replaced completely in our system,” says Eleni Iacovidou, a lecturer in environmental management at Brunel University London. Replacing plastic packaging would set off a chain reaction in the environment. While glass has some advantages over plastic, such as being endlessly recyclable, a one-liter glass bottle can weigh as much as 800g compared to a 40g plastic one. When those heavier bottles and jars need to be transported over long distances, carbon emissions grow even more. It’s clear that replacing one material with another won’t solve all our plastic problems. 28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To give a definition. B. To report on a study. C. To introduce an argument. D. To describe a phenomenon. 29. Why does Sharon George mention a dialysis unit? A. To show the high cost of plastic medical products. B. To illustrate plastic’s necessity in medical work. C. To explain how dialysis units are usually operated. D. To compare plastic with other medical materials. 30. What is Eleni Iacovidou’s attitude toward removing plastic totally in food system? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Optimistic. D. Uninterested. 31. What does the author want to convey through the text? A. Plastic is too important to human life and should never be replaced. B. Medical and food industries depend entirely on plastic for development. C. Plastic pollution is the most serious environmental issue worldwide. D. Solving plastic problems requires more than simply replacing it with other materials. D You stayed up too late browsing through your phone, answering emails or watching just one more episode. The next morning, you feel sleepy and impatient. That dessert or sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries. This isn't just about willpower. Your brain, short on rest, is pushing you toward quick, high-calorie fixes. Research shows that insufficient sleep disturbs hunger signals, weakens self-control and increases your risk of weight gain. Sleep inadequacy affects millions. More than one-third of U.S. adults regularly get less than seven hours of sleep per night. Nearly three-quarters of adolescents fall short of the recommended 8-10 hours of sleep during the school week. First responders, including nurses, firefighters and emergency workers, are especially vulnerable due to night shifts and varying uncontrollable schedules. These patterns disturb the body's internal clock and are linked to increased appetite, poor eating habits and elevated risks for obesity and metabolic disease. Studies show that after just one night of sleep deprivation, reward-related areas such as the amygdala (杏仁核), a part of the brain that drives motivation and reward-seeking, become more reactive to inviting food. Your brain becomes more excited by junk food and less capable of resisting it. Participants in sleep deprivation studies not only rated high-calorie foods as more desirable but were also more likely to choose them, regardless of how hungry they actually felt. Sleep is as important as diet and exercise in maintaining a healthy weight. Fortunately, even a few nights of consistent, high-quality sleep can help rebalance key systems and start to reverse some of these effects. In a culture that glorifies hustle and late nights, sleep is often treated as optional. So the next time you find yourself reaching for junk food after a short night, recognize that your biology is reacting to stress. Sleep is your most powerful tool for appetite control, energy regulation and long-term health. 32. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Sleep loss stimulates the brain for appetite. B. Staying up late can make people dizzy. C. High-calorie foods are more attractive. D. People are addicted to using mobile phones. 33 Why are first responders more likely to suffer from sleep deprivation? A. They bear expectation of the society. B. They have unhealthy lifestyles. C. They have demanding and shifting schedules. D. They have much pressure from the workload. 34. Why is the brain more likely to shift into the reward mode after sleep insufficiency? A. The brain reacts more quickly to the environment. B. Sleep loss changes how the brain evaluates food. C. The brain becomes more excited and unrealistic. D. Sleep loss changes how the body absorbs nutrients. 35. Which would be the best title for the text? A. How Sleep Loss Disturbs Body’s Internal Clock B. Why Quality Sleep Matters for Weight Management C. Sleep, Diet and Exercise: Keys to Healthy Living D. Sleep Shortage: The Hidden Driver of Junk Food Cravings 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最终选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody gets angry but out-of-control anger isn’t good for you or those around you.

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 (自卑的) 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? 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. I, together with another three classmates, signed up for the relay race. We trained for it and discussed strategies together, none paying attention to my acne. Because of my advantage in speed, I was even assigned to run the last leg, which was the most crucial part. 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。 Then came the long-awaited sports day. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The experience was a turning point to my junior life. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $null
