Read our guides for some really cool ideas. Gaudi buildings You are going to see a lot of Gaudi buildings with bright colours. But who or what is Gaudi? He was an architect from Barcelona. Some people say he was a terrible student, but his buildings are amazing One of the best places to see Gaudi’s extraordinary designs is Parc Guel It is a great place to hang out with friends and escape from the noise of the city. Museums Take the train to the Dali Theatre Museum. It’s pink on the outside, with huge eggs on the roof. Inside, you can see some of Dali’s paintings. Or go to the Picasso Museum in the centre of the city and see a large collection of his paintings. Nou Camp If you are into football, plan a visit to the Nou Camp, home of FC Barcelona. There’s space for around 100,000 people, making it the second largest football stadium in Europe. Amusement parks Port Aventura is about an hour from the city by train, but it is worth it! If you’re brave, you can ride the tallest and fastest roller coaster in Europe, but there are also gentle rides and nice restaurants and cafes. Or, if you prefer to stay in Barcelona, an old-fashioned blue tram will take you up the mountain to the Tibidabo park, one of the oldest amusement parks in the world. Apart from looking at the city from the top of the mountain, you can enjoy 25 rides, including a big wheel and a really scary roller coaster. 1. Which place best suits football enthusiasts? A. Parc Guel. B. Port Aventura. C. The Nou Camp. D. The Dali Theatre Museum. 2. What can visitors do at the Tibidabo park? A. Ride the tallest roller coaster. B. Enjoy a bird’s eye view of the city. C. Dine at the mountaintop restaurant. D. Visit an old-fashioned blue train. 3. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An advertisement. B. A text book. C. A magazine. D. A travel brochure. B For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my “heart books”. To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school: Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write. It’s a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. It’s not earth-shattering. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg’s method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The “I” in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice. This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 4. How did the author encounter Writing Down the Bones? A. By following a selection of “heart books”. B. By referring to a book list about writing. C. By recommendation of Natalie Goldberg. D. By seeking writing books on a bookshelf. 5. What does the word “earth-shattering” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Trivial. B. Remarkable. C. Appropriate. D. Amusing. 6. What can we infer about Writing Down the Bones? A. It inspired the author to be a writer. B. It was the first novel the author read. C. It made the author start to love writing. D. It is one of the books the author reads most. 7. Which of the following is answered by the last paragraph? A. What is the author’s life like right now? B. What did the author do in the writing group? C. How has the writing practice shaped the author? D. Why did the author give up the writing practice? C Children who grow up speaking two languages develop strengths that shape the way they learn and connect with others. Bilingualism (双语) is often seen only as a practical skill for communication, but research in educational psychology shows it is far more. It fuels children’s learning capacity, social development, and emotional growth, allowing them to see the world through multiple perspectives. One of the most powerful benefits of bilingualism is its impact on higher-order thinking skills. Researchers call this the executive function advantage, the set of mental processes that support self-control, flexible thinking, and working memory. Switching between two languages gives children constant practice with these skills, making them better at focusing, solving problems, and adapting to challenges in school and beyond. Research supports this advantage. A recent study in Egypt looked at children who spoke Arabic at home and English at school and some of those who only spoke Arabic. The results showed that bilingual children kept pace in both languages and, more importantly, outperformed their monolingual (单语的) peers in reasoning, memory, and problem-solving. Findings like this challenge the idea that learning two languages slows development and instead show that bilingualism fuels intellectual growth. Equally important are the social and emotional rewards that bilingualism offers. Children who speak two languages learn to navigate between cultures and this exposure fosters empathy, respect, and an early ability to see life from multiple perspectives. When they engage in conversations across two linguistic systems, children begin to appreciate differences in communication and thinking, which nurtures deeper connections with their peers and strengthens their social competence. Some concerns about bilingualism still linger. Parents and teachers sometimes worry that children will lag behind if they try to master two languages simultaneously. Others believe that maintaining a family’s native language slows assimilation (同化) into mainstream culture Research shows the opposite. Children who continue using their home language often acquire English more effectively, and the connection to family culture strengthens, not weakens, their ability to thrive in diverse settings. Far from being a barrier, bilingualism enriches both learning and belonging. 8. What is Bilingualism usually regarded as? A. A fuel to improve learning capacity. B. A perspective to see the world. C A useful skill to communicate with others. D. A way to connect with others. 9. How does the research support the executive function advantage? A. It observed children who spoke English at school. B. It compared the bilingual children with the monolingual ones. C. It looked at children who spoke Arabic at home. D. It collected and studied the data from previous studies. 10. What can we know from the last two paragraphs? A. Bilingual children tend to get an ability to see life from multiple perspectives. B. Bilingual students will lag behind as they spend time mastering two languages. C. Bilingualism is a barrier between native culture and mainstream culture. D. Children who speak one language can foster empathy and respect more easily. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards bilingualism? A. negative. B. indifferent. C. critical. D. favorable. D You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products. At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear. In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once. Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint. 12. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for? A. Beautifying the city he lives in. B. Introducing eco-friendly products. C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D. Reducing garbage on the beach. 13. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3? A. To show the difficulty of their recycling. B. To explain why they are useful. C. To voice his views on modern art. D. To find a substitute for them. 14. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers? A. Calming. B. Disturbing. C. Refreshing. D. Challenging. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic Safety B. Media Interest in Contemporary Art C Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies D. Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures 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。 Learning with Short Videos: Tips for Students Short videos are not just for fun — they can be great tools for learning. Many students use them to study English, science, or even history. But how can you make sure you learn well from them? Here are some simple tips. Choose the right videos Not all short videos are good for learning. Look for ones made by teachers or educational channels. ____16____ For example, if you’re learning grammar, choose a video that explains just one rule at a time. Watch with a goal Before you press “play”, ask yourself: “What do I want to learn from this?” Maybe it’s a new English word or a math formula. ____17____ This helps you stay focused, not just watch passively. Don’t watch too many at once It’s easy to keep scrolling to the next video, but your brain needs time to take in the information. Watch 1-2 videos, then stop for a while. ____18____ You can also write down key points or explain what you learned to a friend. Use subtitles (字幕) Most learning videos have subtitles. Turn them on, especially for English videos. ____19____ You can read along and learn how words are spelled and used in sentences. Practice what you learn Watching is just the first step. To really learn, you need to practice. If a video teaches a new dance move, try it yourself. ____20____ This way, you’ll remember better and make the learning stick. A. They should be clear and not too fast. B. Keep this question in your mind while watching. C. Some videos can help you relax after a long day. D. This helps you take in the knowledge more deeply. E. You can also use them to check your pronunciation. F. This makes it easier to follow, even if the speaker talks fast. G. If it’s a science experiment, try to do a simple version at home. 第三部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I used to think my grandfather’s workshop was a place frozen in time.

He and Thomas were already mounted on their bicycles, keen to have Ben join them. Ben shook his head, a frown pulling at the corners of his lips. All his friends owned a — bicycle everyone except him. He desired more than anything to have one too, so that he could ride alongside them and share laughter together. When he was a young child, he had a tricycle, but now he had outgrown that old thing by far. He had once asked his mother for a bicycle, yet she merely responded, “Not just yet, Ben. You’ll have to wait until your birthday.” To Ben, waiting seemed like decades, and this feeling filled his chest with a heavy sense of disappointment. One afternoon Ben wandered over to the park near his house. Upon his arrival, the park was completely deserted — no other children to play with, no one to communicate with. He sighed, on the edge of turning around and heading back home, when something caught his eye. Beside the swings stood a glossy blue bicycle, and it was not locked. There was not a single person in sight. Taking it would be incredibly easy, Ben thought. The mere idea made his hands shake with urge. Should he do it? Ben stepped closer and brushed his fingers against the bicycle’s smooth handlebars. If he took it, he would no longer have to wait for his birthday. He could ride with Dion and Thomas the next day-maybe even today! This thought sent a tide of excitement through his body, making his heart race. He desired that bicycle desperately. 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。 “Wait a minute,” Ben talked to himself. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Ben’s birthday arrived. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 平凉一中2027届高二第一学期第二次阶段性考试英语试题 第一部分 听力(共20小题：每小题1.5分，满分30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．What will the speakers do today?

Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 4. How did the author encounter Writing Down the Bones? A. By following a selection of “heart books”. B. By referring to a book list about writing. C. By recommendation of Natalie Goldberg. D. By seeking writing books on a bookshelf. 5. What does the word “earth-shattering” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Trivial. B. Remarkable. C. Appropriate. D. Amusing. 6. What can we infer about Writing Down the Bones? A. It inspired the author to be a writer. B. It was the first novel the author read. C. It made the author start to love writing. D. It is one of the books the author reads most. 7. Which of the following is answered by the last paragraph? A. What is the author’s life like right now? B. What did the author do in the writing group? C. How has the writing practice shaped the author? D. Why did the author give up the writing practice? 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了作者在高中时读过的《写下骨子里的东西》一书，以及它对作者成为作家和发现自我的重要影响。通过这本书，作者培养了写作的习惯，进而发展出了自己的创作方式，并通过写作找到了自信和对世界的好奇心。最终，成为作家的经历使作者能够成为其他许多身份的人，如活动家、企业家、农民、烘焙师等。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it..(我仍然记得我买它的那天。那是一个夏天，我大概14或15岁。不顾一切地想离开我的房子，我骑着自行车进城，走进书店。我在翻阅书架上关于写作的书时，这本书引起了我的注意。我拿起它，读了几页，就买了下来。)”可知，作者是一次在书店在翻阅书架上关于写作的书时发现《Writing Down the Bones》这本书的。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上一句“Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. (自由写作，定时写作，写作主题：任何上过创意写作课的人都可能遇到过这些事情。)”以及划线单词下一句“There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. (这本书并没有什么特别新颖或不同寻常的地方，所以我也说不出为什么它如此吸引我。)”可推测，任何上过创意写作课的人都可能遇到过的事情在说中都有所描述，并且这本书没有什么特别新颖或不同寻常的地方。因此猜测划线单词指的应该是“极棒的、引人注目的”，和空前的“not”结合，指的是书中的方法并不是那么引人注目。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. (但它改变了一切。我从一个喜欢写作的人变成了一个作家。)”可知，《Writing Down the Bones》这本书改变了作者，使作者从一个喜欢写作的人变成了一个作家。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. (这种写作练习让我加入了波士顿的一个写作小组。这让我有了现在的职业。在很多方面，它让我找回了自己。成为一名作家让我成为了许多其他的身份：一个活动家，一个企业主，一个农民，一个面包师……写作是我找到自信的地方。在那里，我开始对这个世界充满好奇。从那以后，其他一切都随之而来。)”可知，最后一段讲述的是这种写作练习使作者拥有了现在的职业，成为了一名作家，并且使作者成为了许多其他的身份：一个活动家，一个企业主，一个农民，一个面包师等。由此可推测，这一段回答了选项C“How has the writing practice shaped the author? (写作练习如何塑造了作者？)”这一问题。故选C。 C Children who grow up speaking two languages develop strengths that shape the way they learn and connect with others. Bilingualism (双语) is often seen only as a practical skill for communication, but research in educational psychology shows it is far more. It fuels children’s learning capacity, social development, and emotional growth, allowing them to see the world through multiple perspectives. One of the most powerful benefits of bilingualism is its impact on higher-order thinking skills. Researchers call this the executive function advantage, the set of mental processes that support self-control, flexible thinking, and working memory. Switching between two languages gives children constant practice with these skills, making them better at focusing, solving problems, and adapting to challenges in school and beyond. Research supports this advantage. A recent study in Egypt looked at children who spoke Arabic at home and English at school and some of those who only spoke Arabic. The results showed that bilingual children kept pace in both languages and, more importantly, outperformed their monolingual (单语的) peers in reasoning, memory, and problem-solving. Findings like this challenge the idea that learning two languages slows development and instead show that bilingualism fuels intellectual growth. Equally important are the social and emotional rewards that bilingualism offers. Children who speak two languages learn to navigate between cultures, and this exposure fosters empathy, respect, and an early ability to see life from multiple perspectives. When they engage in conversations across two linguistic systems, children begin to appreciate differences in communication and thinking, which nurtures deeper connections with their peers and strengthens their social competence. Some concerns about bilingualism still linger. Parents and teachers sometimes worry that children will lag behind if they try to master two languages simultaneously. Others believe that maintaining a family’s native language slows assimilation (同化) into mainstream culture Research shows the opposite. Children who continue using their home language often acquire English more effectively, and the connection to family culture strengthens, not weakens, their ability to thrive in diverse settings. Far from being a barrier, bilingualism enriches both learning and belonging. 8. What is Bilingualism usually regarded as? A. A fuel to improve learning capacity. B. A perspective to see the world. C. A useful skill to communicate with others. D. A way to connect with others. 9. How does the research support the executive function advantage? A. It observed children who spoke English at school. B. It compared the bilingual children with the monolingual ones. C. It looked at children who spoke Arabic at home. D. It collected and studied the data from previous studies. 10. What can we know from the last two paragraphs? A. Bilingual children tend to get an ability to see life from multiple perspectives. B. Bilingual students will lag behind as they spend time mastering two languages. C. Bilingualism is a barrier between native culture and mainstream culture. D. Children who speak one language can foster empathy and respect more easily. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards bilingualism? A. negative. B. indifferent. C. critical. D. favorable. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍双语能力对儿童学习、社交和情感发展的多重益处，反驳对双语学习的常见担忧。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Bilingualism(双语)is often seen only as a practical skill for communication(双语通常仅被视为一种实用的交流技能)”可知，双语通常被认为是一种有用的交流技能。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“ Research supports this advantage. A recent study in Egypt looked at children who spoke Arabic at home and English at school and some of those who only spoke Arabic. The results showed that bilingual children kept pace in both languages and, more importantly, outperformed their monolingual (单语的) peers in reasoning, memory, and problem-solving.(埃及最近的一项研究观察了在家说阿拉伯语、在学校说英语的儿童以及一些只说阿拉伯语的儿童。结果显示，双语儿童在推理、记忆和解决问题方面表现优于单语同龄人。)”可知，研究通过对比双语儿童和单语儿童的表现，证明了双语带来的执行功能优势。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Children who speak two languages learn to navigate between cultures, and this exposure fosters empathy, respect, and an early ability to see life from multiple perspectives.(说两种语言的儿童学会在不同文化间周旋，这种接触培养了他们的同理心、尊重意识，以及早期从多个角度看待生活的能力。)”可知，双语儿童往往具备从多个角度看待生活的能力。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，作者多次强调双语对儿童思维、社交和情感发展的积极作用，还反驳了“双语会阻碍发展”“影响融入主流文化”等担忧，最后指出“Far from being a barrier, bilingualism enriches both learning and belonging.(双语绝非障碍，反而能丰富学习体验和归属感。)”，可见作者对双语能力持支持态度。故选D项。 D You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products. At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear. In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once. Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint. 12. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for? A. Beautifying the city he lives in. B. Introducing eco-friendly products. C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D. Reducing garbage on the beach. 13. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3? A. To show the difficulty of their recycling. B. To explain why they are useful. C. To voice his views on modern art. D. To find a substitute for them. 14. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers? A. Calming. B. Disturbing. C. Refreshing. D. Challenging. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic Safety B. Media Interest in Contemporary Art C. Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies D. Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了艺术家Benjamin Von Wong使用海洋中的塑料垃圾制作了一个巨型雕塑，极其震撼，引发人们对塑料污染的反思。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.(他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑，迫使观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系)”可知，Von Wong用塑料垃圾制作雕塑，是想让人们重新审视与一次性塑料制品的关系，引起公众对塑料垃圾的关注。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. (全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染源，但它们最近却受到了抨击，因为大多数人不需要吸管喝饮料，而且由于它们体积小、重量轻，无法回收利用)”可知，塑料吸管体积小、重量轻，无法回收利用。由此推知，作者在第三段讨论塑料吸管是为了展示它们回收的难度。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In a piece form 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.(在2018年的一个作品中，Von Wong想要说明一个具体的统计数字：每60秒，就有一卡车塑料进入海洋。这项名为“一卡车塑料”的作品，Von Wong和一群志愿者收集了一万多块塑料，然后把它们绑在一起，让它们看起来像是同时从卡车上倾倒下来的)”可知，这个作品以创新的方式让人们了解到塑料垃圾以很快的速度和很大的量倾入海洋，刷新了观众对海洋塑料污染的认知。由此推知，这个作品会让观众对塑料垃圾进入海洋造成污染这件事感到不安。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.(但一根塑料吸管或一个塑料杯真的有什么区别吗？艺术家Benjamin Von Wong想让你知道，它确实如此。他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑，迫使观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系)”及下文陈述可知，艺术家Benjamin Von Wong通过使用海洋塑料垃圾制作巨型雕塑的方法，引发人们对塑料污染的反思。由此可知，“海洋塑料变成雕塑”可以作文章标题。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。 Learning with Short Videos: Tips for Students Short videos are not just for fun — they can be great tools for learning.

He and Thomas were already mounted on their bicycles, keen to have Ben join them. Ben shook his head, a frown pulling at the corners of his lips. All his friends owned a — bicycle everyone except him. He desired more than anything to have one too, so that he could ride alongside them and share laughter together. When he was a young child, he had a tricycle, but now he had outgrown that old thing by far. He had once asked his mother for a bicycle, yet she merely responded, “Not just yet, Ben. You’ll have to wait until your birthday.” To Ben, waiting seemed like decades, and this feeling filled his chest with a heavy sense of disappointment. One afternoon, Ben wandered over to the park near his house. Upon his arrival, the park was completely deserted — no other children to play with, no one to communicate with. He sighed, on the edge of turning around and heading back home, when something caught his eye. Beside the swings stood a glossy blue bicycle, and it was not locked. There was not a single person in sight. Taking it would be incredibly easy, Ben thought. The mere idea made his hands shake with urge. Should he do it? Ben stepped closer and brushed his fingers against the bicycle’s smooth handlebars. If he took it, he would no longer have to wait for his birthday. He could ride with Dion and Thomas the next day-maybe even today! This thought sent a tide of excitement through his body, making his heart race. He desired that bicycle desperately. 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。 “Wait a minute,” Ben talked to himself. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Ben’s birthday arrived. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “Wait a minute,” Ben talked to himself. He pulled his hand back abruptly, guilt pricking his heart. “This isn’t mine — I can’t steal it,” he whispered. What if the owner was a kid like him, eagerly waiting to ride it? He imagined the disappointment on their face and shook his head firmly. Instead of taking the bike, he left it leaning against the swings, resolving to wait patiently for his birthday. Walking home, he felt lighter, proud of his choice to do the right thing. A week later Ben’s birthday arrived. When he walked into the living room, a glossy blue bicycle — just like the one in the park — sat by the window. “Surprise!” his mother smiled. “I saw how much you wanted it, and your honesty last week made me so proud.” Ben rushed over, hugging his mother tightly. The next day, he cycled to the park, where Dion and Thomas cheered. As they rode together, Ben laughed, realizing that waiting for something honest was far sweeter than taking what didn’t belong to him. 【解析】 【导语】本文以 Ben 对自行车的渴望为线索，讲述了 Ben 因生日未到无法拥有自行车，在公园偶遇一辆未上锁的蓝色自行车时，内心经历 “渴望占有” 与 “坚守诚实” 的挣扎，最终选择放弃偷窃，生日时意外收获同款自行车并与朋友共享骑行快乐的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““等一下，” 本自言自语道。”可知，第一段可描写他因愧疚放弃偷车，再通过心理活动解释放弃的原因，最后以 “内心释然、为自己的诚实骄傲” 收尾，体现人物的品德成长，为下一段生日惊喜铺垫。 ②由第二段首句内容“一周后，本的生日到了”可知，第二段可描写 Ben 看到同款自行车的惊喜场景，通过母亲的话点明 “奖励诚实” 的初衷，呼应前文；再写 Ben与朋友骑行的快乐画面，升华 “诚实带来甜蜜回报”的主题。 2.续写线索：内心挣扎——放弃偷车（坚守诚实）——生日获赠同款自行车——与朋友骑行（收获快乐） 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 想象：imagine/picture ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③意识到：realise/be aware of 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②耐心地：patiently/with patience 【点睛】[高分句型 1] Walking home, he felt lighter, proud of his choice to do the right thing.（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型 2] As they rode together, Ben laughed, realizing that waiting for something honest was far sweeter than taking what didn’t belong to him.（运用 as 引导时间状语从句，现在分词短语作状语，that和what引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
