Here are a few of the most beautiful and most visited national parks around the globe. Kruger National Park, South Africa It is one of the most iconic parks in South Africa, spanning about 5 million acres. It offers access to animals such as the Big Five as well as Nile crocodiles (鳄鱼) and rare birds. The park gives visitors the opportunity to explore it in their own cars, stay at public rest camps, or in private cottages. It also works to preserve historic things like the archaeological sites Bushman rock paintings. Galapagos National Park, Ecuador It is made up of volcanic islands hundreds of miles off the coast of Ecuador, country of South America. The park covers an area of 3,040 square miles and is the country’s first national park. The government of Ecuador declared 97% of the Galapagos Islands area as protected and it was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Galapagos Islands are home to world-famed wildlife. Khao Sok National Park, Thailand The park is part of one of the world’s oldest and largest evergreen rainforests and home to over 200 types of plants, hundreds of bird species and lots of reptiles (爬行动物) and insects. It was established in 1980 and can be reached easily from the popular destination of Phuket. Here guests can encounter elephants in the jungle and enjoy boating, birdwatching, and hiking. Torres del Paine National Park, Chile The park is home to the Grey Glacier and popular hiking trails like the W Trek and O Circuit, which both take several days to finish. Because the park has been affected by extensive wildfires, some activities are not allowed. For instance, some activities—like swimming—are not permitted at all in the protected area’s bodies of water. 1. What do Kruger National Park and Galapagos National Park have in common? A. They are both located in South Africa. B. They are both suitable habitats for wildlife. C. They both have rare bird species in the world. D. They both have a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 2. What do we know about Khao Sok National Park? A. It features elephant riding activities. B. It is the largest national park in Thailand. C. It is easily accessible from a famous resort. D. It has a history of more than half a century. 3. What can tourists do in Torres del Paine National Park? A. Observe large animals in a car. B. Explore ancient rock paintings. C. Swim in natural pools and lakes. D. Join a multi-day hiking adventure. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个最美丽且最受欢迎的国家公园。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Kruger National Park, South Africa部分“It offers access to animals such as the Big Five as well as Nile crocodiles (鳄鱼) and rare birds.(这里可以看到“非洲五霸”、尼罗河鳄鱼和珍稀鸟类等动物。)”和Galapagos National Park, Ecuador部分“The Galapagos Islands are home to world-famed wildlife. (加拉帕戈斯群岛是世界著名野生动物的栖息地。)”可知，两个公园的共同点是都是野生动物的适宜栖息地。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Khao Sok National Park, Thailand部分“It was established in 1980 and can be reached easily from the popular destination of Phuket. (该公园建于1980年，从热门目的地普吉岛可轻松抵达。)”可知，该公园从著名度假胜地（普吉岛）出发很容易到达。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Torres del Paine National Park, Chile部分“The park is home to the Grey Glacier and popular hiking trails like the W Trek and O Circuit, which both take several days to finish. (该公园拥有格雷冰川和热门徒步路线，如 W 路线和 O 路线，这两条路线都需要几天时间才能完成。)”可知，游客可以在该公园参加多日徒步探险。故选D项。 B When Mark Anthony Gonzales saw a police officer in need of assistance, every element of the moral code installed in him through his Brazilian jiu-jitsu (巴西柔术) training — morality, courage, benevolence (仁爱) — told him to stop his car and lend a hand, even though his wife, Rachel Ortiz, and his four kids were in the car. The suspect, a balding man of medium build, was running from a police officer in San Antonio, Texas. Gonzales slowed down. So did the man being chased — to avoid running into Gonzales’s minivan. That hesitation allowed the officer to catch up and take the suspect to the ground. But Gonzales quickly realized that the officer did not have control of the situation with the suspect struggling fiercely. Gonzales put his vehicle in park and jumped out, as did Ortiz. The first thing Gonzales did was identify himself and spell out his intention to make it two-on-one in the officer’s favor and not the other way around. Then, with the man on his back and the officer struggling to control the man’s upper body, Gonzales put his weight on the man’s legs. Seconds later, when the suspect rolled onto his stomach, Gonzales used techniques he’d learned in the gym: digging his knee into the suspect’s el bow and pulling the suspect’s head toward him to maintain control from the side. He then applied an underhook — a jiu-jitsu move where the hands are placed under the opponent’s arm to control the shoulder and upper body — and tugged until, after a few seconds, the suspect’s shoulder gave out. The officer clicked on the handcuffs and the threat was over. Gonzales had asked his wife to record everything to protect him just in case anything was called into question. But Ortiz posted the video on Facebook, where it attracted over 56 million views. Among those awed by the video was Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor Rener Gracie, a fourth-degree black belt, who stated: “The combination of Gonzales’s technique and his calm communication with both the officer and suspect is the stuff of legends!” 4. Why did Gonzales stop his car? A. To protect his family. B. To uphold justice. C. To show his courage. D. To perform jiu-jitsu. 5. What did Gonzales do first when he came to the officer? A. He joined in the two-on-one fight. B. He persuaded the suspect to give in. C. He warned the policeman of danger. D. He declared his identity and intention. 6. Why did Gonzales ask Ortiz to shoot the video? A. To record his heroic deeds. B. To avoid getting in trouble. C. To attract views on Facebook. D. To expose the suspect’s behavior. 7. What’s the best title of the article? A. Jiu-jitsu Makes A Legend B. A Victory Of Two-on-one C. Lending A Well-Trained Hand D. Justice Has Long Arms 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Mark Anthony Gonzales在开车途中遇到警察追捕犯人，运用学过的巴西柔术帮助警察制服嫌疑人的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When Mark Anthony Gonzales saw a police officer in need of assistance, every element of the moral code installed in him through his Brazilian jiu-jitsu (巴西柔术) training — morality, courage, benevolence (仁爱) — told him to stop his car and lend a hand, even though his wife, Rachel Ortiz, and his four kids were in the car.(当Mark Anthony Gonzales看到一名需要帮助的警察时，他通过巴西柔术训练而得到的道德准则——道德、勇气、仁爱——的每一个要素都告诉他停下车，伸出援手，尽管他的妻子Rachel Ortiz和四个孩子在车里。)”以及第二段“But Gonzales quickly realized that the officer did not have control of the situation with the suspect struggling fiercely.(但Gonzales很快意识到，警察无法控制局势，嫌疑人正在激烈挣扎。)”可知，Gonzales停下车是为了帮助警察抓捕嫌疑人，维护正义。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The first thing Gonzales did was identify himself and spell out his intention to make it two-on-one in the officer’s favor and not the other way around.(Gonzales做的第一件事就是表明了自己的身份，并阐明了他的意图，表明二对一是对警察有利，而不是相反。)”可知，当Gonzales来到警官面前时，他首先宣布了自己的身份和意图。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Gonzales had asked his wife to record everything to protect him just in case anything was called into question. But Ortiz posted the video on Facebook, where it attracted over 56 million views. (Gonzales要求他的妻子把一切都记录下来，以保护他以防引起任何怀疑。但Ortiz在脸书上发布了这段视频，吸引了超过5600万的观看量。)”可知，Gonzales让他的妻子Ortiz拍摄这段视频，是为了保护自己以免惹上麻烦。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“When Mark Anthony Gonzales saw a police officer in need of assistance, every element of the moral code installed in him through his Brazilian jiu-jitsu (巴西柔术) training — morality, courage, benevolence (仁爱) — told him to stop his car and lend a hand, even though his wife, Rachel Ortiz, and his four kids were in the car.(当Mark Anthony Gonzales看到一名需要帮助的警察时，他通过巴西柔术训练而得到的道德准则——道德、勇气、仁爱——的每一个要素都告诉他停下车，伸出援手，尽管他的妻子Rachel Ortiz和四个孩子在车里。)”以及下文的详细叙述可知，本文主要讲述学习过巴西柔术的Mark Anthony Gonzales在开车途中遇到警察追捕犯人，运用学过的巴西柔术中的招式帮助警察制服嫌疑人的故事。由此可知，C选项“Lending A Well-Trained Hand (伸出训练有素的援助之手)”能够概括文章主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选C。 C I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.” In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian (功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. What’s true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing “five small acts of kindness per week” produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isn’t new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that “it is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person.” He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves. 8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 9. What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationships. 10. Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 11. What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出很多人对AI礼貌，虽AI无感知且看似无用，但相关实验和观点表明，这种行为能培养人类礼貌、同理心等品质，最终受益者是人类自身。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.”(我常常会发现自己在向人工智能聊天机器人提问时会加上“请”和“谢谢”这样的词语。显然，我不是唯一一个这样做的。2024年的一项调查发现，大约67%的美国人工智能用户也会对人工智能搜索引擎表现出礼貌和感激之情。有些人甚至开玩笑说这要花费不少钱：如果每一个礼貌的词语都要消耗电能，那账单肯定很高。OpenAI的首席执行官萨姆·阿尔特曼回应道：“这花费了数千万美元——谁知道呢。”)”并结合下文对“对AI礼貌能培养人的礼貌、同理心等品质”的陈述可知，作者在第一段通过描述一个现象引入话题。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health.( 不过，对人工智能表示感激所体现的价值可能并非是能够立即衡量出来的。心理学家罗伯特·埃蒙斯和迈克尔·麦卡洛开展了一项实验，他们将参与者分为三组，要求第一组列出他们所感激的事情，而其他两组则分别记录日常烦恼或只是进行日常日记记录。10周后，他们发现第一组的幸福感水平提高了25%，内心力量更强，身体状况也更好)”可知，第三段中的实验表明了感恩能增强我们的身体和心智。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit.(他认为，定期的善举，比如进行慈善捐赠和表达感激之情，会通过将美德转化为习惯而使我们长期感到更幸福)”可知，迈蒙尼德认同每周到社区厨房做志愿服务的做法。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a few extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves.(向机器表达感激之情，哪怕只是向一台机器表示感谢，也能强化我们养成的礼貌、耐心和同理心等良好习惯。在我们这个日益数字化和自动化的世界里，保持这些人性特质可能比多消耗一些电能更有价值。最终，我们礼貌行为的受益者并非那台人工智能，而是我们自己)”可知，作者在这篇文章中主要传达了礼貌对人类有益，而非对人工智能有益。故选C。 D For a long time, scientists believed the beautiful songs of birds were purely a product of instinct (本能). Peter Marler, a pioneering British animal behaviorist, revolutionized this view through his research into how birds actually learn to sing, earning him the title “the father of birdsong.” Marler’s fascination began in his youth, observing chaffinches (苍头燕雀) in the English countryside. He noticed slight but consistent differences in the songs of birds from different regions, much like human dialects. This curiosity defined his career. In the 1950s, he began carefully recording these songs. Using a crucial tool called a spectrogram, which visually represents sound, he was able to scientifically confirm that these regional variations, or “dialects,” were indeed real. His famous study of the white-crowned sparrow in California clearly showed distinct dialects between northern and southern populations. The central question remained: were these dialects inherited or learned? To solve this, Marler designed a series of experiments that would later be regarded as models of clarity. He raised young birds in complete vocal isolation from adults. These isolated birds only produced simple, natural calls, proving that the full, complex song was not automatic. However, when he played recordings of adult songs to them during a critical learning period after hatching, they successfully learned and sang the complete tune. This was decisive evidence that birdsong is a culturally transmitted behavior. Initially, his theory faced doubts from a scientific community that favored instinct-based explanations. The mainstream view still favored instinct, and some dismissed his work as an exception rather than a rule. Marler, however, quietly continued his careful studies. Gradually, his well-designed methods and undeniable evidence won over the community. By transforming lines of numbers into meaningful maps of sound and behavior, he gave the world new eyes to see what had always been hidden in plain hearing. The impact of his work extended far beyond ornithology (鸟类学). It provided a powerful, simpler model for scientists studying the incredibly complex evolution of human language, suggesting our own speech may have roots in similar vocal learning processes. 12 What did Marler find while observing chaffinches? A. Seasonal variations in dialects. B. Regional differences in birdsong. C. Slight changes in bird population. D. Common features in bird species. 13. What do the underlined words “culturally transmitted” mean in paragraph 3? A. Found in human language. B. Spread within a single family. C. Passed down through genes. D. Learned from others in a community. 14. What can we infer about Marler? A. His findings were soon accepted. B. He truly respected others’ opinion. C. He was a patient and careful scientist. D. He was the first to study bird behavior. 15. Why was Marler’s theory significant? A. It supported rare bird protection. B. It proved the once-popular theory. C It made bird research more popular. D. It promoted the study of human speech. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍“鸟类鸣叫之父”彼得・马(Peter Marler)，其通过研究发现鸟类鸣叫存在地区差异且需学习，颠覆本能论，还为人类语言研究提供模型。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He noticed slight but consistent differences in the songs of birds from different regions, much like human dialects. (他注意到来自不同地区的鸟类，其歌声存在细微但一致的差异，很像人类的方言。)”可知，马勒观察苍头燕雀时发现了鸟类歌声的地区差异。故选B项。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“He raised young birds in complete vocal isolation from adults. These isolated birds only produced simple, natural calls, proving that the full, complex song was not automatic. However, when he played recordings of adult songs to them during a critical learning period after hatching, they successfully learned and sang the complete tune. (他让幼鸟在完全隔绝成鸟叫声的环境中成长。这些被隔离的幼鸟仅能发出简单的本能鸣叫，这表明完整复杂的鸣唱并非天生。但如果在幼鸟孵化后的关键学习期给它们播放成鸟的鸣唱录音，它们就能成功学会并唱出完整的曲调。)”可知，鸟类的复杂歌声是通过学习同类的声音获得的。因此“culturally transmitted”指“在群体中向他人学习并传递”。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In the 1950s, he began carefully recording these songs. Using a crucial tool called a spectrogram, which visually represents sound, he was able to scientifically confirm that these regional variations, or “dialects,” were indeed real.(20世纪50年代，他开始仔细录制这些鸣叫。借助一种名为声谱图的关键工具 —— 这种工具能将声音可视化呈现 —— 他得以用科学方法证实，这些区域性差异（即“方言”）确实存在。)”和第四段“Marler, however, quietly continued his careful studies. Gradually, his well-designed methods and undeniable evidence won over the community. (然而，马勒仍默默继续他严谨的研究。渐渐地，他设计精良的方法和无可辩驳的证据说服了科学界。)”可知，马勒是一位耐心且严谨的科学家。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“It provided a powerful, simpler model for scientists studying the incredibly complex evolution of human language, suggesting our own speech may have roots in similar vocal learning processes. (它为研究人类语言极其复杂演化过程的科学家提供了一个有力且更简单的模型，表明我们人类的语言可能源于类似的声音学习过程。)”可知，马勒的理论意义在于推动了人类语言研究。故选D项。 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。 As our dogs enter their golden years, what they need for their continued comfort and happiness will change. ____16____ It involves a comprehensive approach that covers their changing health, mobility, and emotional well-being.

I learned this lesson years ago, when I spotted a dusty ____21____ in my grandmother’s room. It was a sunlit garden, with its edges worn-out from time, but the colors still ____22____. I’d never seen it before, but as I stared, something ____23____. A flood of images rushed in: sitting on that bench at age seven; my grandmother handing me a cup of lemonade; the ____24____ scent of roses hanging in the air. Until that moment, those memories had been ____25____, like puzzle pieces I couldn’t quite fit together. My grandmother, noticing my gaze, smiled. “Your grandfather painted that,” she said. “He loved that garden, spent hours there, even when his hands shook too badly to ____26____ a brush.” I studied the brushstrokes — quick, as if he’d painted ____27____, afraid the light might shift before he caught it.

His argument is based on the unproven ________ (assume) that most consumers will prioritize price over quality. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】assumption 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：他的论点基于一个未经证实的假设，即大多数消费者会优先考虑价格而非质量。分析句子结构可知，此空需用名词作介词on的宾语；assumption，表“假设、假定”，为可数名词，结合空前定冠词“the”和语境，此处特指“大多数消费者会优先考虑价格而非质量”这一假设，用单数形式即可，符合语法要求和语境。故填assumption。 37. A detailed explanation should ________ (company) the data to help readers understand its significance. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】accompany 【解析】 【详解】考查动词。句意：详细的解释应伴随数据，以帮助读者理解其意义。情态动词“should”后需接动词原形；company的动词形式为accompany，意为“伴随；陪同”。故填accompany。 38. The company’s customer service team responds ________(rely) to complaints, usually resolving issues within 24 hours. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】reliably 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：该公司的客户服务团队能够可靠地处理投诉，通常能在 24 小时内解决相关问题。修饰动词respond用副词形式reliably，作状语。故填reliably。 39. The proposal gained widespread ________ (approve) due to its innovative approach to solving long-standing industry issues. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】approval 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：因提出创新方法以解决业内长期存在的问题，该提案获得了广泛认可。根据所给词approve以及动词gained可知，此空应是名词approval作宾语，表示“认可、赞同”。故填approval。 40. To solve this reading comprehension problem, you have to make ________ (infer) from the context rather than finding direct answers in the text. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】inferences 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：要解决这个阅读理解题，你必须从上下文进行推断，而不是在文中寻找直接答案。此空需用名词作动词make的宾语；inference，表“推断、推论”，为可数名词，结合语境可知，此处需用复数形式inferences，表示泛指多次推断，符合语法要求和语境。故填inferences。 41. ________ (prohibit) from using mobile phones in class, students have to focus more on listening to the teacher. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】Prohibited 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：学生们被禁止在课堂上使用手机，他们必须更专注于听老师讲课。分析句子结构可知，逗号后是主句，此空应是非谓语。students与prohibit是动宾关系(学生被禁止)，此空需用过去分词prohibited作状语，句首单词首字母应大写。故填Prohibited。 42. She ________ (convince) that she will master English pronunciation if she keeps practicing every day. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】is convinced 【解析】 【详解】考查时态语态。句意：她坚信只要每天坚持练习，就会掌握英语发音。分析句子结构可知，此处需用被动语态表达“某人坚信……”，固定结构为“be convinced that...”；主语she为第三人称单数，且句子描述的是当前的信念，用一般现在时，因此be动词用is。故填is convinced。 43. He was unfairly labeled ________ a troublemaker just because he spoke up for his ideas. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】as 【解析】 【详解】考查介词。句意：他仅仅因为自己的想法发声，就被不公平地贴上了“捣蛋鬼”的标签。固定搭配“label sb. as...”意为“把某人贴上……的标签”，该句中为其被动结构“be labeled as”。故填as。 44. ________ started as a small hobby of growing flowers has turned into a popular community activity. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】What 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：起初只是种花这一小爱好，如今已变成一项受欢迎的社区活动。根据句子结构可知，“____ started as a small hobby of growing flowers”为主语从句，作句子主语。从句中缺少主语，意为“……东西/事物”，需用what引导主语从句，句首单词首字母应大写。故填What。 45. ________ honesty is the foundation of any successful relationship, whether personal or professional, is universally acknowledged. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】That 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：诚实是任何成功关系的基础，无论是个人关系还是工作关系，这是举世公认的。空处引导主语从句，从句成分和意义都完整，用连接词that作引导词，位于句首，首字母需大写。故填That。 第四部分 写作 (共两节, 满分 40 分) 第一节 (满分 15 分) 46. 在你校举办的主题为“The Joy of Labor”的微视频大赛（Micro Video Competition）中，你的参赛作品获得一等奖，校英文报编辑邀请你写一篇稿件介绍你的作品，内容包括： 1. 视频内容； 2. 你的感受。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________。 【答案】例文 Joy of Tree-Planting Privileged to obtain first prize in the Micro Video Competition themed “The Joy of Labour,” I’m honored to brief you about my submission.

Inside sat a cute rabbit toy with a sticky note, “Bunny needs a place to play. Your mailbox looks perfect.” Mike called his wife Clara, “Our mailbox has a new guest.” Clara came out, smiling at the little rabbit before noticing their water bill beneath it. “But this is not a toy house. We might miss important bills.” The couple had built the mailbox three years ago. Mike, a retired toy maker, designed it like a small white cottage (小屋) with a red roof, measuring and cutting each piece of wood with the same precision he once used for children’s toys. Clara painted dancing flowers on the sunny yellow door hoping to make passing children smile. “What if the ‘owner’ decides to move in more things?” Clara wondered. Mike gently straightened the rabbit’s ear. “Someone treasured this,” he murmured, “Let’s find out who it belongs to first.” The next day, Mike showed a photo of the rabbit to his neighbors. No one recognized it until Mrs. Bennet said, “I saw a little girl with pigtails (辫子) by your mailbox yesterday. She looked around nervously before placing something inside. I think she’s from the new apartments on Elm Street. Poor thing — there’s no playground there, not even any play equipment.” Mike didn’t ask further. Instead of removing the rabbit, he taped a colorful note to the mailbox, “Bunny is welcome here.” Soon, more toys joined the rabbit — always in the afternoon hours when school ended. Weeks passed. The collection of playthings grew, leaving little room for mail. One evening, Clara found a new note in pink crayon, “Dear friends, Bunny really wants a toy swing (秋千) . I tried to make one but failed. Can you help? — Emma.” Clara’s eyes grew soft, a forgotten sense of childhood wonder bubbling up inside her. “This isn’t just a mailbox anymore; it’s a secret play world.” she said. “I almost feel like we’re part of it.” Mike nodded, “Tomorrow, let’s join in.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 The next afternoon, Mike and Clara hid nearby with a small surprise. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Learning Emma’s wish, the couple decided to build a toy cottage. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible Version: Para 1: The next afternoon, Mike and Clara hid nearby with a small surprise. When a girl with pigtails approached, tiptoeing nervously toward the mailbox, they stepped forward with warm smiles. “Are you Emma?” Mike asked gently. The girl nodded. Clara knelt down, unveiling a delicate wooden swing with intricate carvings. “For Bunny,” she said softly. Emma’s eyes sparkled like stars. With a joyful, silent gasp, she gently took Bunny from the mailbox and placed it on the tiny seat. “It’s absolutely perfect” she breathed. Then she whispered, “I wish all my toys had a cottage to play in.” Para 2: Learning Emma’s wish the couple decided to build a toy cottage. Mike disappeared into his dusty workshop, his hands rediscovering the familiar rhythm of measuring and cutting wood. Clara sketched imaginative designs — little windows, flowers dancing across a sunny yellow door. Days later, a mini masterpiece stood beside the mailbox. When Emma arrived, her jaw dropped. “A real toy house.” she yelled, tenderly arranging Bunny and others inside. Watching her pure joy, Mike felt his retired heart awakening, while Clara’s eyes glistened with tears. They’d created something magical-not just a toy cottage, but a sanctuary where childhood wonder bloomed eternal. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“信箱里的玩具”为线索展开，讲述了退休玩具制造者迈克和妻子克拉拉发现信箱里出现带纸条的兔子玩具后，没有移除反而欢迎更多玩具到来。他们得知玩具主人是新公寓没有游乐设施的小女孩艾玛，收到艾玛想要玩具秋千的请求后，决定参与到这个“秘密游戏世界”中，用行动守护孩子的童年纯真。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天下午，迈克和克拉拉带着一个小惊喜躲在附近。”可知，第一段可描写迈克和克拉拉把做好的秋千送给艾玛，艾玛很惊喜，并表示希望她所有的玩具都有一个玩耍的小屋。 ②由第二段首句内容“得知艾玛的愿望后，这对夫妇决定建造一座玩具小屋。”可知，第二段可描写迈克和克拉拉建造玩具小屋的过程以及小屋建成后艾玛的反应。 2. 续写线索：夫妇带秋千埋伏等候→艾玛出现→送上秋千→艾玛惊喜并许愿→决定建造玩具小屋→共同制作→艾玛见到小屋欣喜不已→夫妇二人收获心灵触动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走近：approach/come up to ② 揭开：unveil/uncover ③ 尖叫：yell/scream 情绪类 ①喜悦的：joyful/delighted ②震惊：one’s jaw drop/ astonished 【点睛】【高分句型1】Clara knelt down, unveiling a delicate wooden swing with intricate carvings.（运用了现在分词作状语。） 【高分句型2】They’d created something magical — not just a toy cottage, but a sanctuary where childhood wonder bloomed eternal.（运用了not...but...连接并列结构和where引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 南昌二中 2025-2026 学年度上学期高二英语期中考试 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分 30 分) 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Here are a few of the most beautiful and most visited national parks around the globe. Kruger National Park, South Africa It is one of the most iconic parks in South Africa, spanning about 5 million acres. It offers access to animals such as the Big Five as well as Nile crocodiles (鳄鱼) and rare birds. The park gives visitors the opportunity to explore it in their own cars, stay at public rest camps, or in private cottages. It also works to preserve historic things like the archaeological sites Bushman rock paintings. Galapagos National Park, Ecuador It is made up of volcanic islands hundreds of miles off the coast of Ecuador, country of South America. The park covers an area of 3,040 square miles and is the country’s first national park. The government of Ecuador declared 97% of the Galapagos Islands area as protected and it was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Galapagos Islands are home to world-famed wildlife. Khao Sok National Park, Thailand The park is part of one of the world’s oldest and largest evergreen rainforests and home to over 200 types of plants, hundreds of bird species and lots of reptiles (爬行动物) and insects. It was established in 1980 and can be reached easily from the popular destination of Phuket. Here guests can encounter elephants in the jungle and enjoy boating, birdwatching, and hiking. Torres del Paine National Park, Chile The park is home to the Grey Glacier and popular hiking trails like the W Trek and O Circuit, which both take several days to finish. Because the park has been affected by extensive wildfires, some activities are not allowed. For instance, some activities—like swimming—are not permitted at all in the protected area’s bodies of water. 1. What do Kruger National Park and Galapagos National Park have in common? A. They are both located in South Africa. B. They are both suitable habitats for wildlife. C. They both have rare bird species in the world. D. They both have a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 2.

It has a history of more than half a century. 3. What can tourists do in Torres del Paine National Park? A. Observe large animals in a car. B. Explore ancient rock paintings. C. Swim in natural pools and lakes. D. Join a multi-day hiking adventure. B When Mark Anthony Gonzales saw a police officer in need of assistance, every element of the moral code installed in him through his Brazilian jiu-jitsu (巴西柔术) training — morality, courage, benevolence (仁爱) — told him to stop his car and lend a hand, even though his wife, Rachel Ortiz, and his four kids were in the car. The suspect, a balding man of medium build, was running from a police officer in San Antonio, Texas. Gonzales slowed down. So did the man being chased — to avoid running into Gonzales’s minivan. That hesitation allowed the officer to catch up and take the suspect to the ground. But Gonzales quickly realized that the officer did not have control of the situation with the suspect struggling fiercely. Gonzales put his vehicle in park and jumped out, as did Ortiz. The first thing Gonzales did was identify himself and spell out his intention to make it two-on-one in the officer’s favor and not the other way around. Then, with the man on his back and the officer struggling to control the man’s upper body, Gonzales put his weight on the man’s legs. Seconds later, when the suspect rolled onto his stomach, Gonzales used techniques he’d learned in the gym: digging his knee into the suspect’s el bow and pulling the suspect’s head toward him to maintain control from the side. He then applied an underhook — a jiu-jitsu move where the hands are placed under the opponent’s arm to control the shoulder and upper body — and tugged until, after a few seconds, the suspect’s shoulder gave out. The officer clicked on the handcuffs and the threat was over. Gonzales had asked his wife to record everything to protect him just in case anything was called into question. But Ortiz posted the video on Facebook, where it attracted over 56 million views. Among those awed by the video was Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor Rener Gracie, a fourth-degree black belt, who stated: “The combination of Gonzales’s technique and his calm communication with both the officer and suspect is the stuff of legends!” 4 Why did Gonzales stop his car? A. To protect his family. B. To uphold justice. C. To show his courage. D. To perform jiu-jitsu. 5. What did Gonzales do first when he came to the officer? A. He joined in the two-on-one fight. B. He persuaded the suspect to give in. C. He warned the policeman of danger. D. He declared his identity and intention. 6. Why did Gonzales ask Ortiz to shoot the video? A. To record his heroic deeds. B. To avoid getting in trouble. C. To attract views on Facebook. D. To expose the suspect’s behavior. 7. What’s the best title of the article? A. Jiu-jitsu Makes A Legend B. A Victory Of Two-on-one C. Lending A Well-Trained Hand D. Justice Has Long Arms C I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.” In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian (功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. What’s true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing “five small acts of kindness per week” produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isn’t new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that “it is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person.” He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves. 8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 9. What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationships. 10. Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 11. What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. D For a long time, scientists believed the beautiful songs of birds were purely a product of instinct (本能). Peter Marler, a pioneering British animal behaviorist, revolutionized this view through his research into how birds actually learn to sing, earning him the title “the father of birdsong.” Marler’s fascination began in his youth, observing chaffinches (苍头燕雀) in the English countryside. He noticed slight but consistent differences in the songs of birds from different regions, much like human dialects. This curiosity defined his career. In the 1950s, he began carefully recording these songs. Using a crucial tool called a spectrogram, which visually represents sound, he was able to scientifically confirm that these regional variations, or “dialects,” were indeed real. His famous study of the white-crowned sparrow in California clearly showed distinct dialects between northern and southern populations. The central question remained: were these dialects inherited or learned? To solve this, Marler designed a series of experiments that would later be regarded as models of clarity. He raised young birds in complete vocal isolation from adults. These isolated birds only produced simple, natural calls, proving that the full, complex song was not automatic. However, when he played recordings of adult songs to them during a critical learning period after hatching, they successfully learned and sang the complete tune. This was decisive evidence that birdsong is a culturally transmitted behavior. Initially, his theory faced doubts from a scientific community that favored instinct-based explanations. The mainstream view still favored instinct, and some dismissed his work as an exception rather than a rule. Marler, however, quietly continued his careful studies. Gradually, his well-designed methods and undeniable evidence won over the community. By transforming lines of numbers into meaningful maps of sound and behavior, he gave the world new eyes to see what had always been hidden in plain hearing. The impact of his work extended far beyond ornithology (鸟类学). It provided a powerful, simpler model for scientists studying the incredibly complex evolution of human language, suggesting our own speech may have roots in similar vocal learning processes. 12. What did Marler find while observing chaffinches? A. Seasonal variations in dialects. B. Regional differences in birdsong. C. Slight changes in bird population. D. Common features in bird species. 13. What do the underlined words “culturally transmitted” mean in paragraph 3? A. Found in human language. B. Spread within a single family. C. Passed down through genes. D. Learned from others in a community. 14. What can we infer about Marler? A. His findings were soon accepted. B. He truly respected others’ opinion. C. He was a patient and careful scientist. D. He was the first to study bird behavior. 15. Why was Marler’s theory significant? A. It supported rare bird protection. B. It proved the once-popular theory. C. It made bird research more popular. D. It promoted the study of human speech. 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。 As our dogs enter their golden years, what they need for their continued comfort and happiness will change. ____16____ It involves a comprehensive approach that covers their changing health, mobility, and emotional well-being.

Inside sat a cute rabbit toy with a sticky note, “Bunny needs a place to play. Your mailbox looks perfect.” Mike called his wife Clara, “Our mailbox has a new guest.” Clara came out, smiling at the little rabbit before noticing their water bill beneath it. “But this is not a toy house. We might miss important bills.” The couple had built the mailbox three years ago. Mike, a retired toy maker, designed it like a small white cottage (小屋) with a red roof, measuring and cutting each piece of wood with the same precision he once used for children’s toys. Clara painted dancing flowers on the sunny yellow door hoping to make passing children smile. “What if the ‘owner’ decides to move in more things?” Clara wondered. Mike gently straightened the rabbit’s ear. “Someone treasured this,” he murmured, “Let’s find out who it belongs to first.” The next day, Mike showed a photo of the rabbit to his neighbors. No one recognized it until Mrs. Bennet said, “I saw a little girl with pigtails (辫子) by your mailbox yesterday. She looked around nervously before placing something inside. I think she’s from the new apartments on Elm Street. Poor thing — there’s no playground there, not even any play equipment.” Mike didn’t ask further. Instead of removing the rabbit, he taped a colorful note to the mailbox, “Bunny is welcome here.” Soon, more toys joined the rabbit — always in the afternoon hours when school ended. Weeks passed. The collection of playthings grew, leaving little room for mail. One evening, Clara found a new note in pink crayon, “Dear friends, Bunny really wants a toy swing (秋千) . I tried to make one but failed. Can you help? — Emma.” Clara’s eyes grew soft, a forgotten sense of childhood wonder bubbling up inside her. “This isn’t just a mailbox anymore; it’s a secret play world.” she said. “I almost feel like we’re part of it.” Mike nodded, “Tomorrow, let’s join in.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 The next afternoon, Mike and Clara hid nearby with a small surprise. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Learning Emma’s wish, the couple decided to build a toy cottage. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
