A. 5 minutes. B. 15 minutes. C. 20 minutes. 13. What are the competitors advised to do? A. Memorize the speech. B. Read out the speech draft. C. Use keywords to guide the speech. 【答案】11. B 12. C 13. C 【解析】 【原文】M: Welcome everybody. You are all here because you have bravely decided that you want to take part in our annual public speaking competition. The theme of this year’s competition is the pleasure of leisure. Last year if you remember we had a much more serious topic the dangers of climate change. This year we’re hoping to encourage you to talk about how you enjoy yourselves and the importance of having a good time. The speech should last no more than twenty minutes. When you have five minutes left one of our staff members will hold up a sign informing you that your time will soon be up. I’d now like to give you some suggestions. I advise you very strongly not to try to learn your speech by heart. It will make it sound very unnatural. Even worse than this is to write the speech down and then read it out. The best way to prepare is to summarize what you are going to say into keywords and phrases. Write them down in large letters on a piece of paper. Look at your audience during the speech. And remember to take a deep breath before you start and then slow down your speech. Finally I wish the very best of luck to all our contestants. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 14.

W: Of course, I went to Boston on a student exchange in my final year. I had studied English but had never practised with one. M: Oh, it must have been very hard. W: Yeah, one day I had to buy a new phone. I was nervous, but the salesperson understood my first question and I understood his answer. The moment that happened I knew I was going to be okay with my English, so that was my turning point with my English. M: Your English sounds great now. W: Thanks. What about you? M: I’m a doctor now, but I didn’t know that was going to be my career. My mother was in hospital and I took care of her. That was when I knew I wanted to help people like her. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What is Emma’s role in theater production? A. She plays the lead role in the play. B.

M: Oh, so it’s just turning lights on and off? W: Not at all. I have to understand the story’s emotions first. M: How do you prepare for that? W: I read the script carefully and figure out the feelings of each scene. If it’s a sad moment, I might research soft, cool-colored lights. For exciting parts, I look into bright, dynamic light setups. M: What comes next after that? W: I make a plan and show it to the stage manager. We discuss if it matches the director’s vision. M: Is that the end of your work? W: Nearly. I still watch the final runs to make sure the lights change at the right time and enhance the performance. M: That sounds more complicated than I thought. W: It is, but I love it. Being able to shape how the audience feels about the play makes it all worth it. 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Shared mobility Car sharing, bike sharing and the like are good for the environment, though access to them isn’t equal. A lot can be done to give everyone more transportation options. Why is it easy to maintain shared mobility? Walk around most large cities in Europe and the United States, and you’d be forgiven for thinking that we’re living in a brave new world of affordable and effortless mobility for all, with the smartphone in your pocket an access to a great number of shared bikes and electric cars, and a ride service never more than five minutes away. Who are these services more easily accessible to? If you’ re disabled or elderly, who lives in a low-income area or without a smartphone or credit card,using these shared mobility services becomes a lot more difficult. They tend to be more accessible in many urban areas, and are often inaccessible to people with reduced mobility or those traveling with young children. Because of these factors, users are unequally younger, wealthier, able-bodied, and male. What are the potential benefits? On-demand shared mobility that feeds into well-developed public transportation systems could cut transportation emissions (排放物) by 50 percent — but only if it largely replaces private car use. What options meet your needs today? How can shared mobility be spread? Achieving that goal will be challenging, especially in developed countries, where people choose private cars for 61 percent of the kilometers they travel. To move more people away from private vehicles to shared ones, broadening opportunities to reach a larger population is an important first step. 21. Who finds it hardest to use shared mobility? A. A man with a smartphone. B. A senior without credit cards. C. A well-off worker in a city. D. A regular bus-taking student. 22. Which service allows people to operate the vehicle themselves? A. MICROMOBILITY. B. MICROTRANSIT. C. RIDEPOOLING. D. RIDESOURCING. 23. What should be done first to promote shared mobility? A. Lower smartphone costs. B. Increase varieties of vehicles. C. Limiting private car sales. D. Expand accessibility to users. 【答案】21. B 22. A 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了共享出行的相关信息。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“If you’re disabled or elderly, who lives in a low-income area or without a smartphone or credit card, using these shared mobility services becomes a lot more difficult.(如果你是残障人士或老年人，居住在低收入区域，或者没有智能手机或信用卡，使用这些共享出行服务会变得困难得多。)”可知，没有信用卡的老年人（senior without credit cards）使用共享出行服务最困难。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。图表显示，微移动（MICROMOBILITY）包含电动滑板车、电动自行车和自行车，用户需自行操作车辆。而网约车（如Uber）和拼车（RIDEPOOLING）由他人驾驶，微交通（MICROTRANSIT）通常指集体接送服务，用户不直接操作车辆。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“To move more people away from private vehicles to shared ones, broadening opportunities to reach a larger population is an important first step.(为了让更多人从私家车转向共享交通工具，扩大服务覆盖面以惠及更广泛人群，是重要的第一步。)”可知，为了让更多人从私家车转向共享出行，扩大服务覆盖人群、增加用户可及性是重要的第一步。故选D。 B Growing up in Campana, my father’s workshop felt like a magical world. The smell of metal, the sound of machines, and his work-worn clothes left a deep impression on me. It was there that I learned to turn discarded (丢弃的) car parts into toys that fueled my childhood adventures. Now I’m a PE teacher. I’ve brought my childhood love of creation into the classroom by building metal models that show how the human body moves in sports — all without using electricity. These moving sculptures have become my teaching tools, demonstrating complex motions in slow, easy-to-see detail. Over time, my creations have grown: from a skate model to El Dibu Martinez’s famous World Cup save, from a metal rock band to a wheeled dinosaur. Each piece reflects the beauty of movement. At school I used to notice students always staring at their phones during breaks. But things changed when they became engaged with my projects. One memorable activity was when we made small boats from metal sheets and tested whether they would float in water-filled containers. In that moment, the screens were forgotten, replaced by the excitement of discovery. Another meaningful project came when a mother asked me to adapt a prosthetic (假体的) arm for her son Juan. Using just a simple plastic bucket, I created a working design. The moment Juan wore the arm, he began picking things up and handing them to me. We laughed together to celebrate the amazing moment. To support these projects, my weekly routine now includes searching for materials in garbage dumps. With a limited budget, this is still necessary. But I see a bright side. We’re not only saving resources but also giving new life to discarded materials in creative ways. Sometimes the smell of metal takes me back to my father’s workshop. I realize that what he gave me was more than skills — it was a way of seeing the world not as it is, but as it could be. 24. Why does the author build metal models? A. To amuse students in their free time. B. To sharpen his metalworking ability. C. To demonstrate his artistic creativity. D. To explain sports movements clearly. 25. What can be inferred about the author’s teaching approach? A. He values theoretical knowledge. B. He prioritizes hands-on activities. C. He emphasizes competitive sports. D. He relies on advanced technology. 26. Which of the following best describes the author? A. Skilled and ambitious. B. Practical and strict. C. Caring and resourceful. D. Talented and humorous. 27. What is the father’s impact on the author? A. He inspired a unique worldview. B. He encouraged him to be a teacher. C. He passed down his love for sports. D. He shaped his habit of saving money. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者受父亲影响，将儿时对创造的热爱带入课堂，用金属模型教学、开展项目并变废为宝的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I’ve brought my childhood love of creation into the classroom by building metal models that show how the human body moves in sports — all without using electricity. These moving sculptures have become my teaching tools, demonstrating complex motions in slow, easy-to-see detail.(我把儿时对创造的热爱带进了课堂，制作了金属模型，展示人体在运动中的运动方式——所有这些都不用电。这些移动雕塑已经成为我的教学工具，以缓慢、易于观察的细节展示复杂的动作。)”可知，作者制作金属模型是为了清楚地解释运动动作。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“At school, I used to notice students always staring at their phones during breaks. But things changed when they became engaged with my projects. One memorable activity was when we made small boats from metal sheets and tested whether they would float in water-filled containers. In that moment, the screens were forgotten, replaced by the excitement of discovery.(在学校里，我过去常常注意到学生们在课间总是盯着手机看。但当他们参与到我的项目中时，情况发生了变化。一个令人难忘的活动是我们用金属片制作小船，并测试它们是否会在装满水的容器中漂浮。在那一刻，屏幕被遗忘了，取而代之的是发现的兴奋。)”以及第四段中“Another meaningful project came when a mother asked me to adapt a prosthetic (假体的) arm for her son Juan. Using just a simple plastic bucket, I created a working design. The moment Juan wore the arm, he began picking things up and handing them to me.

I realize that what he gave me was more than skills — it was a way of seeing the world not as it is, but as it could be.(有时金属的气味会让我回到父亲的工作室。我意识到他给我的不仅仅是技能——而是一种看待世界的方式，不是看它本来的样子，而是看它可能的样子。)”可知，父亲对作者的影响是激发了他独特的世界观。故选A。 C You might wander leisurely into the Kinder Shop if you happened to be in Carlisle, a city that sits in the county of Cumbria in northwest England. Its windows displayed a range of household items like candles, lamps and chairs. But this shop differs from other shops. Each item in the shop was generously donated by local businesses and priced in terms of volunteer hours that the purchaser would contribute to nearby charities. The suggested number of hours required to purchase each item was clearly displayed on its price tag, Calling itself the Kinder Shop, this store has transformed the concept of kindness into a practical project that genuinely impacts the lives of locals. The nature of the store lies in its devotion to assisting the county’s charitable organizations and community groups, which rely on the invaluable work of volunteers to fulfill their vital missions. The first customer Sara Talebaoui paid for her purchases, including a table and several chairs set for her garden, by volunteering for a total of 24 hours for several local charities. “This is indeed my lucky day. I had had no knowledge of this event before and couldn’t believe it when I was informed that all these lovely things are being offered in a special way, ” Sara told Cumbria Crack. “I am a bit of a history fan, so working for English Heritage is absolutely a golden opportunity for me. ” The Kinder Shop has opened doors for people to participate in charitable activities, enabling them to make a practical impact on their community. Bramble House Hair Salon in the nearby town of Keswick was inspired to host a “pay-with-kindness” day. During the activity, individuals who spent 15 minutes collecting trash in the town center received a free haircut as a gesture of appreciation. “What we thought would be a one-off (一次的) event looks as if it could be the start of something really special,” said Des Moore, CEO of the Cumberland Building Society, “We believe we can take the idea of kindness from Cumbria and spread it all around the UK. ” 28. Which may set the Kinder Shop apart from other stores? A. The various payment methods. B. Long hours of shopping service. C. A non-monetary exchange system. D. Generous discounts for volunteers. 29. What is the main purpose of the Kinder Shop? A. To provide free daily items for those in need. B. To offer employment opportunities to the locals. C. To drive volunteer contributions to local charities. D. To raise funds for the local charitable organizations. 30. How did Sara find her whole experience of getting furniture from the shop? A. It’s satisfying. B. It’s inconvenient. C. It’s boring. D. It’s laborious. 31. What can we infer about the Kinder Shop from the last two paragraphs? A. Its trading mode goes through many changes. B. It competes actively with other businesses. C. It has received the official support. D. Its impact has expanded further. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要叙述英国西北部一个城市的特殊商店，店里的每件商品都是当地商家慷慨捐赠的，并以购买者为附近的慈善机构贡献的志愿服务时间来确定他们服务的价位并给予相应的商品。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But this shop differs from other shops. Each item in the shop was generously donated by local businesses and priced in terms of volunteer hours that the purchaser would contribute to nearby charities.(但是这家店与其他店不一样。店里每件商品都是有当地企业慷慨捐赠的，并以购买者为附近的慈善机构贡献的志愿者时间来定价的。)”可知，这家店与其他店不同之处就在于店里的商品是由企业捐赠的，商品价格也是由购买者当志愿者的时间来定的，因此为非货币交易，故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The nature of the store lies in its devotion to assisting the county’s charitable organizations and community groups, which rely on the invaluable work of volunteers to fulfill their vital missions.(该店的本质在于它致力于帮助该县的慈善组织和社区团体，这些组织依靠志愿者的宝贵工作来完成他们的重要任务。)”可知，该店的目标是支持慈善机构和社区团体，依赖志愿者来完成使命，故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““This is indeed my lucky day. I had had no knowledge of this event before and couldn’t believe it when I was informed that all these lovely things are being offered in a special way, ” Sara told Cumbria Crack. “I am a bit of a history fan, so working for English Heritage is absolutely a golden opportunity for me. ”(Sara告诉Cumbria Crack：“今天是我的幸运日。我之前对这个活动一无所知，当我被告知所有这些可爱的东西都以特殊的方式提供时，我简直不敢相信。我是一个历史迷，所以为英国遗产部门工作对我来说绝对是一个千金的机会。”)”可知，Sara称这是“幸运的一天”，并感谢通过志愿者工作获得这个工作的机会，故可推知她对此是满意的，故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Bramble House Hair Salon in the nearby town of Keswick was inspired to host a “pay-with-kindness” day.(附近Keswick镇的Bramble House理发店受到启发举办了“慈善支付日”。)”以及最后一段Des Moore所说的话““We believe we can take the idea of kindness from Cumbria and spread it all around the UK. ”(“我们相信，我们能将这个慈善理念从Cumbria扩展到全英。”)”可知，这家店影响了附近的理发店，且其理念也将扩展到全英，因此它的影响得到了进一步的扩展，故选D。 D Mosquito-borne diseases like malaria remain significant global health threats. While man-made repellents (驱虫剂) effectively discourage these insects, their chemical components often cause harmful reactions such as skin redness and breathing issues. Natural alternatives, such as essential oils from lavender plants, have shown repellent properties but quickly lose their effect in sunlight and dry up fast, making them hard to use widely. Addressing these challenges, two material engineers from Soochow University in China drew inspiration from nature to design a long-lasting mosquito-repellent fabric. Their study, published in the Journal of Pest Science, focuses on wrapping lavender oil in tiny silk-based containers to achieve lasting protection. The team turned to silk protein, which breaks down naturally and comes from silkworms. Known for its flexibility and slow-release capabilities, silk protein was combined with gum arabic — a natural polymer (聚合物) from trees — to form tiny stable capsules. By continuously stirring the mixture at warm temperatures, researchers successfully added lavender oil into these capsules. Adjusting the oil concentration allowed them to create samples with 5% to 15%lavender content. Once cooled, the capsules settled and were bonded to cotton fabric pieces for testing. To evaluate effectiveness, the team fashioned the treated fabric into gloves and conducted trials with human volunteers. Participants wore either treated or untreated gloves and then put their arms near areas with mosquitoes. Results revealed striking differences: untreated gloves attracted an average of 15 mosquitoes per five-minute session, while gloves with 15% lavender oil saw fewer than one mosquito landing. Even after 40 machine washes, the high-concentration fabric maintained strong repellency, with only 2.5 mosquitoes landing on post-treatment gloves — evidence of its durability. This breakthrough combines eco-friendly materials with advanced material engineering. Unlike traditional repellents, the silk-based capsules gradually release essential oils without frequent reapplication, offering a safer, more sustainable solution. The technology not only reduces reliance on harmful chemicals but also appeals to growing demand for biodegradable (可生物降解的) products. 32. How does the author introduce the topic in the first paragraph? A. By comparing the limitations of existing repellents. B. By directly stating the research team’s conclusions. C. By listing statistical data on mosquito-borne diseases. D. By quoting experts’ opinions on chemical components. 33. What experimental condition is necessary during capsule formation? A. Exposure to light for 24 hours. B. Addition of man-made polymers. C. Immediate freezing after adding oil. D. Continuous stirring at warm temperatures. 34. What is the main advantage of the new fabric compared to traditional repellents? A. It combines man- made materials with machine washes. B. It relieves mosquito-borne diseases through reapplication. C. It provides long-lasting protection without frequent reapplication. D. It activates stronger repellent effects during several washing cycles. 35. Which statement best summarizes the new fabric’s significance? A. It reduces fabric durability by using natural polymers. B. It proves silk protein is worse than man-made polymers. C. It joins environmentally safe materials with modern high-tech. D. It brings down lavender oil’s medicinal properties in repellent action. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了为解决现有驱虫剂局限，中国苏州大学工程师以蚕丝蛋白和阿拉伯胶制成含薰衣草精油的胶囊，结合棉布制成面料，驱虫持久且耐洗，安全环保，兼具科技与可持续性。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Mosquito-borne diseases like malaria remain significant global health threats. While man-made repellents (驱虫剂) effectively discourage these insects, their chemical components often cause harmful reactions such as skin redness and breathing issues. Natural alternatives, such as essential oils from lavender plants, have shown repellent properties but quickly lose their effect in sunlight and dry up fast, making them hard to use widely. (像疟疾这类由蚊子传播的疾病仍是全球重大的健康威胁。虽然人工驱虫剂能有效驱赶这些昆虫，但其化学成分往往会引发皮肤发红、呼吸问题等有害反应。薰衣草精油等天然替代品虽有驱虫功效，却在阳光下易失效且很快变干，难以广泛使用。)”可知，第一段通过对比两种现有驱虫剂的局限性引入主题。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“By continuously stirring the mixture at warm temperatures, researchers successfully added lavender oil into these capsules. (通过在温热环境下持续搅拌混合物，研究人员成功地将薰衣草油添加到了这些胶囊中。)”可知，在胶囊形成过程中，需要在温热条件下持续搅拌。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Unlike traditional repellents, the silk-based capsules gradually release essential oils without frequent reapplication, offering a safer, more sustainable solution. (与传统的驱虫剂不同，这种基于蚕丝的胶囊能够持续缓慢释放精油，无需频繁重新涂抹，从而提供一种更安全、更可持续的解决方案。)”可知，与传统的驱虫剂相比，这种新型面料的主要优势是能提供持久的防护效果，无需频繁重新涂抹。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“This breakthrough combines eco-friendly materials with advanced material engineering. (这一突破将环保材料与先进的材料工程技术相结合。)”可知，这种新型面料的重要意义是它将环保材料与现代高科技相结合。故选C。 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。 How to Improve Mental Focus and Concentration Skills Have you ever felt like your mind is divided into a million directions? ____36____ This guide is packed with practical tips to help you achieve mind concentration and unlock your peak performance.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了4种有效的方法来提高专注力。这些研究支持的策略将有助于提高你的思想并改善你的日常表现。 【36题详解】 由上文“Have you ever felt like your mind is divided into a million directions?(你是否曾感觉自己的思绪被分割到无数个方向？)”可知，该句描述了思绪分散的常见状态，空格处需承接这一现象，强调当下保持专注的难度，为下文的解决方案做铺垫。F项“In today’s fast-paced world, staying focused can feel almost impossible.(在如今快节奏的世界里，保持专注几乎难如登天。)”符合语境，“staying focused can feel almost impossible”呼应上文“mind is divided into a million directions”，且引出下文“实用技巧”的必要性。故选F项。 【37题详解】 由上文“Establish a routine. An excellent routine acts like a roadmap, ensuring that you get from one task to another without too much wasted time on distractions.(建立规律。良好的规律就像路线图，确保你从一项任务过渡到另一项任务，不会在分心之事上浪费过多时间。)”可知，前文重点强调“建立规律”的作用，空格处需进一步说明践行规律的具体做法。D项“Stick to your schedule as closely as possible to build consistency.(尽量遵守时间表，保持连贯性。)”符合语境，“Stick to your schedule”是对“Establish a routine”的具体落实，“build consistency”呼应上文“without too much wasted time on distractions”。故选D项。 【38题详解】 由上文“Exercise regularly.(定期锻炼。)”可知，该句提出核心建议，空格处需阐释锻炼的双重益处，尤其突出对大脑的积极影响。E项“It isn’t just good for your body — it’s a game-changer for your brain.(它不仅对身体有益——还能彻底改变你的大脑状态。)”符合语境，It明确指代“Exercise regularly”，“game-changer for your brain”承接下文“When you move, your body transports oxygen-rich blood to your brain(当你移动时，你的身体将富含氧气的血液输送到你的大脑)”的具体原理，逻辑连贯。故选E项。 【39题详解】 由下文“Your environment plays a massive role in your ability to concentrate. Optimize your workspace to support mental clarity by keeping it organized, ensuring proper lighting, and reducing noise.(环境对你的专注力影响巨大。通过保持整洁、保证充足光线、减少噪音来优化工作空间，助力思维清晰。)”可知，本段围绕“环境对专注力的影响”展开，空格处需作为主题句概括核心观点。A项“Create a focus-friendly environment.(打造有利于专注的环境。)”符合语境，“focus-friendly environment”直接呼应下文“Optimize your workspace”和“reducing noise”等具体措施。故选A项。 【40题详解】 由上文“Setting specific, achievable goals gives your brain a clear target to focus on. Without goals, it’s easy to feel directionless.(设定具体、可实现的目标能给大脑一个明确的专注方向。没有目标，很容易感到迷茫。)”可知，前文强调“设定明确目标”的重要性，空格处需补充设定目标的具体方法。C项“Break larger objectives into smaller, manageable tasks.(将大目标分解为更小、可管理的任务。)”符合语境，该句是对“specific, achievable goals”的进一步阐释，与下文“For instance, you can use SMART goals(例如，你可以使用SMART目标)” 形成并列的方法指引。故选C项。 第三部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I was looking for a job that could help me make ends meet.

One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living room after school, when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf. The vase dropped to the floor, and a large piece broke off. What made Ben more upset was that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique (古董), which was handed down through generations from the 18th century. It was also his mother’s favourite possession. To cover his terrible action, the terrified boy glued the pieces together hastily and put the vase back in its place. As the mother herself dusted the vase every day, she naturally noticed the cracks (裂纹) that evening. To her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Fearing punishment, the suddenly inspired boy said that a neighbor’s cat jumped in from the window and he couldn’t drive it away, no matter how hard he tried. It raced around the living room and finally knocked the vase off its shelf. His mother was quite clear that her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned. However, in the face of her son’s nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members, Ben’s mother remained calm. She realized she shouldn’t just simply blame and punish her son for lying. She came up with another idea. Before going to bed, the boy found a note from his mother in his room, asking him to go to the study at once. The boy thought he would now be punished, but, as he had already lied, he decided to deny everything, no matter how angry his mum became. In the study, calmly bathed in the light, his mother’s face showed no sign of anger. On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter, she took a chocolate box out of a drawer and gave him one. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The mother said, “This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat!” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now with some chocolates in hand, the boy’s bad attitude disappeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The mother said, “This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat!” Ben’s face turned red as he stared at the chocolate in his hand. His mother gently touched his head and continued, “You glued the vase carefully, which shows you truly cared about making things right.” She paused, her eyes warm and understanding. “But imagination should help us solve problems, not hide from them.” Ben bit his lip, realizing his mother had known the truth all along. Now with some chocolates in hand, the boy’s bad attitude disappeared. He took a deep breath and whispered, “Mom, I’m sorry. I broke the vase while playing basketball and lied to you.” His mother smiled softly, “I’m proud of you for telling the truth. Mistakes happen, but honesty is more precious than any antique.” She handed him another chocolate, “Let’s fix it together tomorrow, okay?” Ben nodded, holding the chocolate tightly, grateful for his mother’s wisdom and love. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Ben不小心打碎了家里的古董花瓶，为了掩盖自己的行为，他撒谎说是邻居的猫跳进窗户打碎了花瓶。母亲发现真相后，没有直接责备和惩罚他，而是用一种智慧的方式引导他承认错误的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“母亲说：‘这颗巧克力是对你想象力的奖励：一只开窗的猫！’”可知，第一段可描写母亲用奖励巧克力的方式回应Ben的谎言，既肯定了他粘花瓶的细心，又委婉指出想象力不应用于逃避问题，让Ben意识到母亲已知晓真相。 ②由第二段首句内容“现在手里拿着一些巧克力，男孩的糟糕态度消失了。”可知，第二段可描写Ben在母亲的引导下，主动承认错误，母亲对他的诚实表示肯定，并提议一起修复花瓶，体现了母亲的智慧与关爱。 2.续写线索： 母亲用巧克力回应谎言——指出问题所在——Ben态度转变并主动承认错误——母亲接纳并提议共同解决——Ben感受到了母亲的关爱与智慧 词汇激活 行为类 ①盯着：stare at/gaze at ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③发生：happen/occur ④修理：fix/repair 情感类 ①温柔：gentle/tender ②温暖的：warm/affectionate ③感激的：grateful/thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] His mother gently touched his head and continued, “You glued the vase carefully, which shows you truly cared about making things right.”（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰You glued the vase carefully整个句子） [高分句型2] Ben bit his lip, realizing his mother had known the truth all along.（运用了现在分词短语作伴随状语，且其中包含省略了引导词that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高三上学期11月试题 英语 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，将条形码准确粘贴在条形码区域内。 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂;非选择题必须使用0. 5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔书写，字体工整，笔记清楚。 3.请按照题号顺序在答题卡各题目的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效;在草稿纸、试卷上答题无效。 4.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What are the speakers talking about?

A lot can be done to give everyone more transportation options. Why is it easy to maintain shared mobility? Walk around most large cities in Europe and the United States, and you’d be forgiven for thinking that we’re living in a brave new world of affordable and effortless mobility for all, with the smartphone in your pocket an access to a great number of shared bikes and electric cars, and a ride service never more than five minutes away. Who are these services more easily accessible to? If you’ re disabled or elderly, who lives in a low-income area or without a smartphone or credit card,using these shared mobility services becomes a lot more difficult. They tend to be more accessible in many urban areas, and are often inaccessible to people with reduced mobility or those traveling with young children. Because of these factors, users are unequally younger, wealthier, able-bodied, and male. What are the potential benefits? On-demand shared mobility that feeds into well-developed public transportation systems could cut transportation emissions (排放物) by 50 percent — but only if it largely replaces private car use. What options meet your needs today? How can shared mobility be spread? Achieving that goal will be challenging, especially in developed countries, where people choose private cars for 61 percent of the kilometers they travel. To move more people away from private vehicles to shared ones, broadening opportunities to reach a larger population is an important first step. 21. Who finds it hardest to use shared mobility? A. A man with a smartphone. B. A senior without credit cards. C. A well-off worker in a city. D. A regular bus-taking student. 22. Which service allows people to operate the vehicle themselves? A. MICROMOBILITY. B. MICROTRANSIT. C. RIDEPOOLING. D. RIDESOURCING. 23. What should be done first to promote shared mobility? A. Lower smartphone costs. B. Increase varieties of vehicles. C. Limiting private car sales. D. Expand accessibility to users. B Growing up in Campana, my father’s workshop felt like a magical world. The smell of metal, the sound of machines, and his work-worn clothes left a deep impression on me. It was there that I learned to turn discarded (丢弃的) car parts into toys that fueled my childhood adventures. Now I’m a PE teacher. I’ve brought my childhood love of creation into the classroom by building metal models that show how the human body moves in sports — all without using electricity. These moving sculptures have become my teaching tools, demonstrating complex motions in slow, easy-to-see detail. Over time, my creations have grown: from a skate model to El Dibu Martinez’s famous World Cup save, from a metal rock band to a wheeled dinosaur. Each piece reflects the beauty of movement. At school, I used to notice students always staring at their phones during breaks. But things changed when they became engaged with my projects. One memorable activity was when we made small boats from metal sheets and tested whether they would float in water-filled containers. In that moment, the screens were forgotten, replaced by the excitement of discovery. Another meaningful project came when a mother asked me to adapt a prosthetic (假体的) arm for her son Juan. Using just a simple plastic bucket, I created a working design. The moment Juan wore the arm, he began picking things up and handing them to me. We laughed together to celebrate the amazing moment. To support these projects, my weekly routine now includes searching for materials in garbage dumps. With a limited budget, this is still necessary. But I see a bright side. We’re not only saving resources but also giving new life to discarded materials in creative ways. Sometimes the smell of metal takes me back to my father’s workshop. I realize that what he gave me was more than skills — it was a way of seeing the world not as it is, but as it could be. 24. Why does the author build metal models? A. To amuse students in their free time. B. To sharpen his metalworking ability. C. To demonstrate his artistic creativity. D. To explain sports movements clearly. 25. What can be inferred about the author’s teaching approach? A. He values theoretical knowledge. B. He prioritizes hands-on activities. C. He emphasizes competitive sports. D. He relies on advanced technology. 26. Which of the following best describes the author? A. Skilled and ambitious. B. Practical and strict. C. Caring and resourceful. D. Talented and humorous. 27. What is the father’s impact on the author? A. He inspired a unique worldview. B. He encouraged him to be a teacher. C. He passed down his love for sports. D. He shaped his habit of saving money. C You might wander leisurely into the Kinder Shop if you happened to be in Carlisle, a city that sits in the county of Cumbria in northwest England. Its windows displayed a range of household items like candles, lamps and chairs. But this shop differs from other shops. Each item in the shop was generously donated by local businesses and priced in terms of volunteer hours that the purchaser would contribute to nearby charities. The suggested number of hours required to purchase each item was clearly displayed on its price tag, Calling itself the Kinder Shop, this store has transformed the concept of kindness into a practical project that genuinely impacts the lives of locals. The nature of the store lies in its devotion to assisting the county’s charitable organizations and community groups, which rely on the invaluable work of volunteers to fulfill their vital missions. The first customer Sara Talebaoui paid for her purchases, including a table and several chairs set for her garden, by volunteering for a total of 24 hours for several local charities. “This is indeed my lucky day. I had had no knowledge of this event before and couldn’t believe it when I was informed that all these lovely things are being offered in a special way, ” Sara told Cumbria Crack. “I am a bit of a history fan, so working for English Heritage is absolutely a golden opportunity for me. ” The Kinder Shop has opened doors for people to participate in charitable activities, enabling them to make a practical impact on their community. Bramble House Hair Salon in the nearby town of Keswick was inspired to host a “pay-with-kindness” day. During the activity, individuals who spent 15 minutes collecting trash in the town center received a free haircut as a gesture of appreciation. “What we thought would be a one-off (一次) event looks as if it could be the start of something really special,” said Des Moore, CEO of the Cumberland Building Society, “We believe we can take the idea of kindness from Cumbria and spread it all around the UK. ” 28. Which may set the Kinder Shop apart from other stores? A. The various payment methods. B. Long hours of shopping service. C. A non-monetary exchange system. D. Generous discounts for volunteers. 29. What is the main purpose of the Kinder Shop? A. To provide free daily items for those in need. B. To offer employment opportunities to the locals. C. To drive volunteer contributions to local charities. D. To raise funds for the local charitable organizations. 30. How did Sara find her whole experience of getting furniture from the shop? A. It’s satisfying. B. It’s inconvenient. C. It’s boring. D. It’s laborious. 31. What can we infer about the Kinder Shop from the last two paragraphs? A. Its trading mode goes through many changes. B. It competes actively with other businesses. C. It has received the official support. D. Its impact has expanded further. D Mosquito-borne diseases like malaria remain significant global health threats. While man-made repellents (驱虫剂) effectively discourage these insects, their chemical components often cause harmful reactions such as skin redness and breathing issues. Natural alternatives, such as essential oils from lavender plants, have shown repellent properties but quickly lose their effect in sunlight and dry up fast, making them hard to use widely. Addressing these challenges, two material engineers from Soochow University in China drew inspiration from nature to design a long-lasting mosquito-repellent fabric. Their study, published in the Journal of Pest Science, focuses on wrapping lavender oil in tiny silk-based containers to achieve lasting protection. The team turned to silk protein, which breaks down naturally and comes from silkworms. Known for its flexibility and slow-release capabilities, silk protein was combined with gum arabic — a natural polymer (聚合物) from trees — to form tiny stable capsules. By continuously stirring the mixture at warm temperatures, researchers successfully added lavender oil into these capsules. Adjusting the oil concentration allowed them to create samples with 5% to 15%lavender content. Once cooled, the capsules settled and were bonded to cotton fabric pieces for testing. To evaluate effectiveness, the team fashioned the treated fabric into gloves and conducted trials with human volunteers. Participants wore either treated or untreated gloves and then put their arms near areas with mosquitoes. Results revealed striking differences: untreated gloves attracted an average of 15 mosquitoes per five-minute session, while gloves with 15% lavender oil saw fewer than one mosquito landing. Even after 40 machine washes, the high-concentration fabric maintained strong repellency, with only 2.5 mosquitoes landing on post-treatment gloves — evidence of its durability. This breakthrough combines eco-friendly materials with advanced material engineering. Unlike traditional repellents, the silk-based capsules gradually release essential oils without frequent reapplication, offering a safer, more sustainable solution. The technology not only reduces reliance on harmful chemicals but also appeals to growing demand for biodegradable (可生物降解的) products. 32. How does the author introduce the topic in the first paragraph? A. By comparing the limitations of existing repellents. B. By directly stating the research team’s conclusions. C. By listing statistical data on mosquito-borne diseases. D. By quoting experts’ opinions on chemical components. 33. What experimental condition is necessary during capsule formation? A. Exposure to light for 24 hours. B. Addition of man-made polymers. C. Immediate freezing after adding oil. D. Continuous stirring at warm temperatures. 34. What is the main advantage of the new fabric compared to traditional repellents? A. It combines man- made materials with machine washes. B. It relieves mosquito-borne diseases through reapplication. C. It provides long-lasting protection without frequent reapplication. D. It activates stronger repellent effects during several washing cycles. 35. Which statement best summarizes the new fabric’s significance? A. It reduces fabric durability by using natural polymers. B. It proves silk protein is worse than man-made polymers. C. It joins environmentally safe materials with modern high-tech. D. It brings down lavender oil’s medicinal properties in repellent action. 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。 How to Improve Mental Focus and Concentration Skills Have you ever felt like your mind is divided into a million directions? ____36____ This guide is packed with practical tips to help you achieve mind concentration and unlock your peak performance.

One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living room after school, when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf. The vase dropped to the floor, and a large piece broke off. What made Ben more upset was that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique (古董), which was handed down through generations from the 18th century. It was also his mother’s favourite possession. To cover his terrible action, the terrified boy glued the pieces together hastily and put the vase back in its place. As the mother herself dusted the vase every day, she naturally noticed the cracks (裂纹) that evening. To her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Fearing punishment, the suddenly inspired boy said that a neighbor’s cat jumped in from the window and he couldn’t drive it away, no matter how hard he tried. It raced around the living room and finally knocked the vase off its shelf. His mother was quite clear that her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned. However, in the face of her son’s nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members, Ben’s mother remained calm. She realized she shouldn’t just simply blame and punish her son for lying. She came up with another idea. Before going to bed, the boy found a note from his mother in his room, asking him to go to the study at once. The boy thought he would now be punished, but, as he had already lied, he decided to deny everything, no matter how angry his mum became. In the study, calmly bathed in the light, his mother’s face showed no sign of anger. On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter, she took a chocolate box out of a drawer and gave him one. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The mother said, “This chocolate is a reward for your imagination: a window-opening cat!” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now with some chocolates in hand, the boy’s bad attitude disappeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。John, what's the next destination you would like to visit?
