My plan seemed ambitious — covering such distances with two young kids in the back might sound crazy to a sensible person. For most of the journey, we often felt annoyed, arguing about the remaining distance and the discomfort in the car. I’d had outback road trip memories as a kid and wanted my city-raised children to see the vast open spaces. At a bird-hide near Forbes, we watched a swamp with bright green water and dead trees. Eager to share Australian folk stories, I confidently told the kids that a mysterious creature lived there — but stumbled when they asked me follow-up questions. Their enthusiasm for the smallest joy knocked me for six. At a roadside motel that looked like a movie set, the kids loved being woken by the night trains, cheering each time. After three days, we reached Broken Hill — a town dominated by a big slag heap (矿渣堆), just as remarkable as I remembered. Surrounded by kilometers of mineral-rich land, its streets imply its mining roots. I feared the mineral museum would bore the kids, but they yelled with joy, thinking it was real-life Minecraft. The trip wasn’t fantastic — I even complained about hard mattresses on the bed and small towels. But on Easter morning, the kids went wild for a simple egg hunt in our cheap motel room, thrilled to search every corner. I set out to teach the kids about the far reaches of our state, when in fact the kids were the best perspective I could ask for all along. 4. Why did the author organize the trip? A. To explore the locals’ unique lifestyle. B. To make shared memories for the family. C. To document the kids’ exposure to nature. D. To relive the special outback experiences. 5. What does the underlined word “stumbled” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Tripped over my words. B. Argued about the stories. C. Subscribed to their views. D. Reflected on the memories. 6. What does the author think of the trip? A. It well fulfills its original purpose. B. It is worthwhile despite inconveniences. C. It leaves the family an unpleasant memory. D. It is an ambitious but disappointing attempt. 7. What key message does the author try to convey through the passage? A. Travel joy lies in overcoming challenges. B. City-raised kids can easily adapt to the outback. C. We gain unexpected insights through kids’ eyes. D. The outback offers more unique sights than cities. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者组织一次长途旅行，旨在为家人创造共同回忆，尽管途中遇到诸多不便，但孩子们的快乐和纯真视角让作者意识到，旅行中的收获往往超乎预期。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I packed my family into our old car and set off on a 3,000 km trip from Sydney to the outback, hoping to create lasting memories for the kids. (我把家人塞进旧车里，踏上了从悉尼到内陆的3000公里旅程，希望能给孩子们留下持久的回忆。)”可知，作者组织这次旅行是为了给家人创造共同的回忆。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Eager to share Australian folk stories, I confidently told the kids that a mysterious creature lived there — but stumbled when they asked me follow-up questions. (我急切地想和孩子们分享澳大利亚的民间故事，自信地告诉他们那里住着一个神秘的生物——但当他们问我后续问题时，我stumbled了。)”可知，作者在自信地讲述故事后，面对孩子们的追问却回答不上来，由此可推知，此处指作者说话不流畅，即“结结巴巴地说不出话来”，与A项“Tripped over my words (结结巴巴地说不出话来)”意思一致。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The trip wasn’t fantastic — I even complained about hard mattresses on the bed and small towels. But on Easter morning, the kids went wild for a simple egg hunt in our cheap motel room, thrilled to search every corner. I set out to teach the kids about the far reaches of our state, when in fact the kids were the best perspective I could ask for all along. (这次旅行并不棒——我甚至抱怨床上的床垫太硬，毛巾太小。但在复活节早上，孩子们在我们廉价的汽车旅馆房间里疯狂地寻找彩蛋，兴奋地搜遍了每一个角落。我本想教孩子们了解我们州最偏远的地方，但实际上，孩子们才是我一直想要的最好的视角。)”可知，作者认为这次旅行虽然有不便之处，但孩子们的快乐和纯真视角让作者觉得这次旅行是值得的。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I set out to teach the kids about the far reaches of our state, when in fact the kids were the best perspective I could ask for all along. (我本想教孩子们了解我们州最偏远的地方，但实际上，孩子们才是我一直想要的最好的视角。)”可知，作者原本想通过旅行教育孩子们，但最终发现孩子们的视角和反应给了作者意想不到的启示和收获，由此可推知，作者想通过这篇文章传达的关键信息是“我们通过孩子的眼睛获得了意想不到的见解”。 C Wayfinding — the art of navigating (导航) using the wind, stars, ocean swells, and other environmental cues — was how sailors from the Marquesas Islands first discovered Hawaii more than 1500 years ago. These skills are helping to restore a sense of pride in Pacific Island culture and heritage. But beyond that, wayfinding holds surprising relevance for the rest of us landlubbing urbanites, even if we have no intention of crossing vast oceans in a canoe. Wayfinding is how humans have found their way for most of our existence. It’s what enabled the aboriginals, Arab nomads and Inuits to journey across monotonous (单调的) yet shifting landscapes of land, desert, and ice. Traditional navigation is about “using everything that’s provided to you in nature”, says Junior Coleman, who oversees sailing and seamanship in his own company. “We use all the elements and forces in nature — the sun, stars, moon, waves, currents, clouds and different animals. All of those.” One of Coleman’s favorite cues, for instance, is the North Star. “It’s very reliable when you sail north of the equator. As you go towards it, it appears to get higher in the sky, so it kind of corresponds with your latitude. Another cue is ocean swells — waves formed by permanent weather systems, such as trade winds, that can travel hundreds of miles. Subtle changes in their refraction patterns can indicate an island and its location. But learning to “read” such swells is one of the hardest skills to master — navigators often speak of lying down on their canoes to feel, rather than see, such waves. Coleman encourages everyone to give natural navigation a go, “I promise you, the brain just loves it,” he says, “there’s almost no other art that I can think of where you can exercise your brain in a fantastically positive way.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To put forward an argument. B. To introduce the topic of the text. C. To make readers think deeply. D. To describe a historical fact. 9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Junior Coleman succeeded in the journey across desert. B. Nature elements provide everything people need in navigation. C. Ancient people were good at finding ways in the wild. D. Traditional navigation has played a vital role throughout. 10. How to use waves to navigate according to the text? A. By observing the height of the waves. B. By noticing certain changes of the waves. C. By following the direction the waves go to. D. By lying down and listening to the waves. 11. What does Junior Coleman think of natural navigation? A. Mind-challenging. B. Potential-inspiring. C. Time-consuming. D. Logic-strengthening. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了航海术，阐述其历史意义、传统航海利用的自然元素、具体导航方式及对锻炼大脑的积极作用。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。第一段讲述了古代航海者利用航海术发现夏威夷岛，接着提到这些技能对恢复太平洋岛屿文化和遗产自豪感的作用，最后话锋一转说航海术对城市居民也有惊人的意义，这种从古代航海到现代城市居民的跨度，是为了引出本文要介绍的话题—Wayfinding，所以第一段的功能是引出文章主题。故选B。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Wayfinding is how humans have found their way for most of our existence. It’s what enabled the aboriginals, Arab nomads and Inuits to journey across monotonous (单调的) yet shifting landscapes of land, desert, and ice. Traditional navigation is about “using everything that’s provided to you in nature”, says Junior Coleman, who oversees sailing and seamanship in his own company. “We use all the elements and forces in nature — the sun, stars, moon, waves, currents, clouds and different animals. All of those.” (寻路是人类在我们存在的大部分时间里找到自己的路的方式。正是它使原住民、阿拉伯游牧民族和因纽特人能够穿越单调但不断变化的土地、沙漠和冰川景观。在自己的公司负责帆船和航海的Junior Coleman说，传统的导航是“使用自然界中提供给你的一切”。“我们使用自然界中的所有元素和力量——太阳、恒星、月亮、波浪、洋流、云层和不同的动物。所有这些。”)”可知，在人类大部分生存时间里，传统导航一直在发挥作用，接着举例原住民、阿拉伯游牧民和因纽特人利用传统导航在不同地形中旅行，说明传统导航一直以来发挥着重要作用。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Another cue is ocean swells — waves formed by permanent weather systems, such as trade winds, that can travel hundreds of miles. Subtle changes in their refraction patterns can indicate an island and its location. (另一个线索是海洋涌浪——由信风等永久性天气系统形成的波浪，可以传播数百英里。它们折射模式的细微变化可以表明一个岛屿及其位置。)”可知，海洋涌浪折射模式的细微变化能指示岛屿及其位置，即可以通过注意海浪折射模式的细微变化(也就是海浪的某些变化)来导航。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Coleman encourages everyone to give natural navigation a go, “I promise you, the brain just loves it,” he says, “there’s almost no other art that I can think of where you can exercise your brain in a fantastically positive way.” (Coleman鼓励每个人尝试自然导航，“我向你保证，大脑就是喜欢它，”他说，“我几乎想不出其他艺术可以让你以一种非常积极的方式锻炼大脑。”)”可知，Coleman认为自然导航能以非常积极的方式锻炼大脑，也就是具有思维挑战性的。故选A。 D Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study tracked the average longevity of those representing the U.S. in the Olympic Games from 1904 to 1936 and found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. When we compare ourselves with those who have more money, power, or achievements, we often feel like, well, losers. It tends to lower motivation and increase stress. In contrast, downward comparison makes people feel better about themselves and, thus, happier. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 12. What can be learned from the 1995 study? A. Silver medalists showed less happiness than bronze winners. B. Silver medalists’ smiling frequency was close to that of gold medalists. C. The average bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than every silver medalist’s. D. The emotions of both medalists were unchanged from the events to the podium. 13. What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A. The stress from downward social comparison. B. The motivation from upward social comparison. C. The effect of different types of social comparison. D. The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 14. What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A. Learn from the top performers. B. Try to be the best in every field. C. Commit to one’s consistent personal growth. D. Strengthen the motivation to obtain achievement. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Triumph of Coming in Third B. The Problem of Human Competition C. The Mechanism of Social Comparison D. The Psychology of the Olympic Medalists 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了研究发现铜牌获得者在幸福程度和长寿方面是真正的赢家，因为银牌得主将自己看作第一个失败者，他们向上比较，而铜牌得主将自己与所有那些没得奖的人比较，他们向下比较。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (讲台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists.(研究人员慢动作镜头捕捉了紧跟比赛结束后和稍后在颁奖台上的情况，发现铜牌获得者的平均表现的开心程度一直高于银牌获得者。超过80%的铜牌获得者展现出真诚的笑容，这一数字几乎是银牌获得者的两倍。此外，每位铜牌获得者的笑容都比银牌获得者的平均笑容持续的时间长。)”可知，1995年的研究发现铜牌得主比银牌得主表现得更开心，也就是说银牌得主没有铜牌得主表现得开心。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison.(这项研究对这种差异有一个方便的解释：“不令人满意的比赛结果可能会对健康产生不利影响。”换句话说，银牌获得者认为自己是第一个失败者，因为他们仰望最高台阶，只将自己与金牌获得者进行比较，而铜牌获得者则将自己与所有从未登上领奖台的人进行比较。这一理论表明了向上和向下社会比较之间的差异。)”可知，奖牌得主寿命的差异反映了不同奖牌得主向上和向下社会比较之间的心理差异。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you.(这里起作用的原则是努力提高自己过去的表现，你唯一需要与之比较的人就是你自己。)”可知，要致力于提高自我，与自己比较，由此可推测，作者建议要致力于个人的不断成长。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity.(虽然第二名可能是第一个失败者，但在幸福和长寿方面，第三名可能是真正的赢家。)”可知，本文主要讲述了第三名在幸福和长寿方面是真正的赢家，并通过研究证实这一观点，反映了他们向上和向下社会比较的心理差异，呼吁专注自我提高、与自己比较。所以A项“第三名的胜利”最适合作本文标题。故选A。 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。 Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? ____16____ Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. ____17____ People who have ever undergone trauma tend to explain a lot to avoid conflict or rejection. Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. ____18____ Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. These direct statements prioritize emotional honesty without over-disclosure. And they don’t leave space for negotiation where none is guaranteed. ____19____ You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. ____20____ You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. The version of you who felt unsafe being misunderstood learns a new truth: Your worth was never conditional or dependent on being agreeable or persuasive. A. If so, you are not alone. B. But maybe the biggest shift is internal. C. Like any behavioral change, this takes practice. D. But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble. E. When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy. F. Have you ever explained to show your politeness and consideration? G. Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences. 【答案】16. A 17. G 18. D 19. E 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以生活中“对话后因过度解释而不安”的常见场景引入，深入分析了过度解释的起源，随后提出改变过度解释的方法，最后阐述停止过度解释带来的积极影响。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? (你是否曾在一场对话后离开时，带着一种自己说得太多的不安感？不是因为你无礼或考虑不周——而是因为你试图向一个根本不想理解你的人解释自己？)”引出“过度解释”的话题，可知，此空需回应这种经历是否普遍。A选项“If so, you are not alone. (如果是这样，你并不孤单。)”中“if so”直接承接前文的设问场景，又自然过渡到下文“Over-explaining happens often in our daily life. (过度解释在日常生活中很常见。)”的论述，符合语境。故选A项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. (过度解释在日常生活中很常见。这种行为源于早期的生存策略。对于在情绪不稳定的家庭中长大的人来说，清晰的解释可能是一种自我保护方式，以防止惩罚或情绪波动。)”可知，前文已提及过度解释的一个起源（早期生存策略与家庭环境），此空需补充其他起源。G选项“Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences. (过度解释也可能源于过去经历塑造的我们的大脑思维模式。)”中“also”体现递进关系，补充了“过往经历”这一起源，符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. (无论起源如何，这种模式都是相同的：我们花费不必要的精力，试图证明自己有权利占据空间、说“不”或做出别人可能不喜欢的选择。)”可知，前文指出了过度解释的问题与负面影响，此空需转折并引出解决方法。D选项“But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble. (但要摆脱这个困扰并非不可能。)”中“but”形成转折，打破前文“过度解释带来困扰”的负面氛围，“not impossible”传递出“可改变”的积极信号，自然引出后文“Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. (像‘我已经做了决定’和‘我们换个话题吧’这样简洁的表达其实能解决问题。)”的具体方法，符合语境。故选D项。 【19题详解】 根据后文“You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. (你会少花精力去练习、辩解或恢复，也不必总是对别人的不适做出反应。)”可知，后文描述的是“停止过度解释”后节省精力的好处，此空需总领该内容。E选项“When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy. (当你停止过度解释时，你会重新获得情感能量。)”中“reclaim emotional energy”直接概括了后文“少花精力在辩解、恢复”的核心好处，符合语境。故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. (你还会开始吸引一种不同类型的关系。这种关系不基于表现或顺从，而是基于相互尊重。)”及后文“You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. (你开始疗愈内心那个认为“爱需要通过解释来争取”的部分。)”可知，前文阐述的是停止过度解释带来的“外在关系”变化，后文说明内在变化，故此空需转折并深入到“内在”层面。B选项“But maybe the biggest shift is internal. (但或许最大的改变在于内在。)”符合语境，引起下文。故选B项。 第三部分：语言运用（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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On sunny weekends, crowds often ___21___ outside my house.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】swung 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态。句意：正在这时，门开了，罗伊走了进来。空处作谓语，swing open意为“（旋转）打开”，结合“walked”可知，时态应用一般过去时，需用swing的过去式swung。故填swung。 48.

While enthusiastically explaining local customs, I patted a French student on the shoulder to express friendliness. However, he immediately stepped back and looked uncomfortable. I later learned that in some cultures, such casual touch can be inappropriate. This incident taught me a valuable lesson: what seems natural in one culture might be interpreted differently in another. I’ve realized the importance of learning about others’ cultural boundaries before communication. Have you ever experienced similar things? Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以李华的身份给笔友Jenny写一封电子邮件，分享一次因文化差异引发的误会经历及感悟。 【详解】1.词汇积累 后退：step back→draw back 不恰当的：inappropriate→improper/ unacceptable 宝贵的：valuable→precious 解读、理解：interpret→perceive/ understand 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：I’ve realized the importance of learning about others’ cultural boundaries before communication.    拓展句：I’ve realized that it is important to learn about others’ cultural boundaries before communication.    【点睛】【高分句型1】I’m writing to share a little cultural misunderstanding I experienced last week when greeting an exchange student.(运用了省略关系词的定语从句“I experienced last week”和when引导的时间状语从句的省略结构“when greeting an exchange student”) 【高分句型2】This incident taught me a valuable lesson: what seems natural in one culture might be interpreted differently in another.(运用了what引导的主语从句“what seems natural in one culture”) 第二节（满分25分） 52. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 The rain tapped hard on the classroom window as I hurried to my desk. Suddenly, I spotted something small and brown curled up in a puddle (小水洼) under an oak tree beside our teaching building — too still to be a leaf. With curiosity, I rushed out to it. However, when I knelt down, my breath caught: a sparrow with one wing broken, feathers knotted, eyes half-closed. “Don’t move,” I whispered, wrapping her in my handkerchief, then dashed back. Ms. Sophie, my English teacher, helped me make a nest from a shoebox and tissues. “We need to act fast,” she said. “Who knows about birds?” Mia, who fed stray cats daily, raised her hand, “My uncle is a vet — he can show us how to cure the wing.” Jake, our art club member, grabbed his drawing book, “I’ll draw diagrams so we won’t mess up.” Lila, who usually kept to herself, spoke up: “I can research what sparrows eat online.” That afternoon, our group crowded around the shoebox. Mia gently held the sparrow while Jake carefully attached a small stick to her broken wing. Lila read aloud from her phone: “Warm water and crushed blueberries, but only a drop at a time.” I took notes, marking when we fed her or changed the tissues. At one point, the sparrow chirped (发啁啾声) softly, and we all froze, grinning. For the first time, we weren’t just classmates-we were a team, each doing what we did best. Problems popped up. The sparrow refused food the next day, and Lila panicked. “Did we hurt her?” Mia checked and shook her head. “Maybe she’s scared. Let’s leave her alone for a while.” We took turns sitting by the window, talking softly so she would get used to our voices. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 By Friday, something different happened. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then came the news that the vet said the sparrow was ready to fly. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 By Friday, something different happened. The little sparrow raised her head and pecked at blueberries from my finger. Slowly, she struggled to her feet, turning her head from side to side. At the moment, happiness and emotion welled up into our hearts. The sparrow came back to life. We cheered happily because our effort paid off. Three weeks later, we cautiously removed the small stick from her wing. For a second, she managed to hop on the edge of the box and made her first attempt to flutter wings. The wing was nearly recovered. Then came the news that the vet said the sparrow was ready to fly. We carried her to the oak tree, where we’d found her. Immediately, she spread her wings and flew. With a cheerful call, she dived towards us, and lowered to stand on my shoulder, as if expressing her gratitude for saving her life to us, reluctant to leave. After circling again and again, she disappeared into the sky. At this time I fully understand not only do human beings have deep affection, but also other species do. 【解析】 【导语】本文以救助行动为线索展开，讲述了主人公和同学们发现一只受伤的麻雀后，组成团队各展所长进行救助，最终成功让麻雀康复并重返天空的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“到了周五，情况出现了转机”可知，第一段可描写麻雀健康状况的明显好转，重点刻画它开始主动进食、尝试站立等积极变化，以及同学们看到努力初见成效时的喜悦。 ②由第二段首句内容“随后传来了兽医的消息，说麻雀已经可以飞翔了”可知，第二段可描写放飞麻雀的过程，通过麻雀在离别时的依恋行为展现人与动物之间的情感纽带，并以主人公的感悟点明主题。 2.续写线索：主动进食——尝试站立——拆除固定——试飞成功——兽医确认——校园放飞——依依惜别——深刻感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拍打翅膀：flutter wings / beat wings ②盘旋：circle / hover 情感类 ①欢呼：cheer / exclaim ②不舍：reluctant to leave / unwilling to part 【点睛】[高分句型1]Slowly, she struggled to her feet, turning her head from side to side.（使用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2]We carried her to the oak tree, where we’d found her.（使用了关系副词where引导的非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度高三年级上学期综合素质评价四 英语学科 （满分150分，考试时间120分钟） Ⅰ卷（共95分） 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。每段对话读两遍。 1.

My plan seemed ambitious — covering such distances with two young kids in the back might sound crazy to a sensible person. For most of the journey, we often felt annoyed, arguing about the remaining distance and the discomfort in the car. I’d had outback road trip memories as a kid and wanted my city-raised children to see the vast open spaces. At a bird-hide near Forbes, we watched a swamp with bright green water and dead trees. Eager to share Australian folk stories, I confidently told the kids that a mysterious creature lived there — but stumbled when they asked me follow-up questions. Their enthusiasm for the smallest joy knocked me for six. At a roadside motel that looked like a movie set, the kids loved being woken by the night trains, cheering each time. After three days, we reached Broken Hill — a town dominated by a big slag heap (矿渣堆), just as remarkable as I remembered. Surrounded by kilometers of mineral-rich land, its streets imply its mining roots. I feared the mineral museum would bore the kids, but they yelled with joy, thinking it was real-life Minecraft. The trip wasn’t fantastic — I even complained about hard mattresses on the bed and small towels. But on Easter morning, the kids went wild for a simple egg hunt in our cheap motel room, thrilled to search every corner. I set out to teach the kids about the far reaches of our state, when in fact the kids were the best perspective I could ask for all along. 4. Why did the author organize the trip? A. To explore the locals’ unique lifestyle. B. To make shared memories for the family. C. To document the kids’ exposure to nature. D. To relive the special outback experiences. 5. What does the underlined word “stumbled” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Tripped over my words. B. Argued about the stories. C. Subscribed to their views. D. Reflected on the memories. 6. What does the author think of the trip? A. It well fulfills its original purpose. B. It is worthwhile despite inconveniences. C. It leaves the family an unpleasant memory. D. It is an ambitious but disappointing attempt. 7. What key message does the author try to convey through the passage? A. Travel joy lies in overcoming challenges. B. City-raised kids can easily adapt to the outback. C. We gain unexpected insights through kids’ eyes. D. The outback offers more unique sights than cities. C Wayfinding — the art of navigating (导航) using the wind, stars, ocean swells, and other environmental cues — was how sailors from the Marquesas Islands first discovered Hawaii more than 1500 years ago. These skills are helping to restore a sense of pride in Pacific Island culture and heritage. But beyond that, wayfinding holds surprising relevance for the rest of us landlubbing urbanites, even if we have no intention of crossing vast oceans in a canoe. Wayfinding is how humans have found their way for most of our existence. It’s what enabled the aboriginals, Arab nomads and Inuits to journey across monotonous (单调的) yet shifting landscapes of land, desert, and ice. Traditional navigation is about “using everything that’s provided to you in nature”, says Junior Coleman, who oversees sailing and seamanship in his own company. “We use all the elements and forces in nature — the sun, stars, moon, waves, currents, clouds and different animals. All of those.” One of Coleman’s favorite cues, for instance, is the North Star. “It’s very reliable when you sail north of the equator. As you go towards it, it appears to get higher in the sky, so it kind of corresponds with your latitude. Another cue is ocean swells — waves formed by permanent weather systems, such as trade winds, that can travel hundreds of miles. Subtle changes in their refraction patterns can indicate an island and its location. But learning to “read” such swells is one of the hardest skills to master — navigators often speak of lying down on their canoes to feel, rather than see, such waves. Coleman encourages everyone to give natural navigation a go, “I promise you, the brain just loves it,” he says, “there’s almost no other art that I can think of where you can exercise your brain in a fantastically positive way.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To put forward an argument. B. To introduce the topic of the text. C. To make readers think deeply. D. To describe a historical fact. 9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Junior Coleman succeeded in the journey across desert. B. Nature elements provide everything people need in navigation. C. Ancient people were good at finding ways in the wild. D. Traditional navigation has played a vital role throughout. 10. How to use waves to navigate according to the text? A.

What does Junior Coleman think of natural navigation? A. Mind-challenging. B. Potential-inspiring. C. Time-consuming. D. Logic-strengthening. D Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study tracked the average longevity of those representing the U.S. in the Olympic Games from 1904 to 1936 and found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. When we compare ourselves with those who have more money, power, or achievements, we often feel like, well, losers. It tends to lower motivation and increase stress. In contrast, downward comparison makes people feel better about themselves and, thus, happier. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 12. What can be learned from the 1995 study? A. Silver medalists showed less happiness than bronze winners. B. Silver medalists’ smiling frequency was close to that of gold medalists. C. The average bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than every silver medalist’s. D. The emotions of both medalists were unchanged from the events to the podium. 13. What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A. The stress from downward social comparison. B. The motivation from upward social comparison. C. The effect of different types of social comparison. D. The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 14. What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A. Learn from the top performers. B. Try to be the best in every field. C. Commit to one’s consistent personal growth. D. Strengthen the motivation to obtain achievement. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Triumph of Coming in Third B. The Problem of Human Competition C. The Mechanism of Social Comparison D. The Psychology of the Olympic Medalists 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。 Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? ____16____ Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. ____17____ People who have ever undergone trauma tend to explain a lot to avoid conflict or rejection. Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. ____18____ Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. These direct statements prioritize emotional honesty without over-disclosure. And they don’t leave space for negotiation where none is guaranteed. ____19____ You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. ____20____ You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. The version of you who felt unsafe being misunderstood learns a new truth: Your worth was never conditional or dependent on being agreeable or persuasive. A. If so, you are not alone. B. But maybe the biggest shift is internal. C. Like any behavioral change, this takes practice. D. But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble. E. When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy. F. Have you ever explained to show your politeness and consideration? G. Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences. 第三部分：语言运用（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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On sunny weekends, crowds often ___21___ outside my house.

Suddenly, I spotted something small and brown curled up in a puddle (小水洼) under an oak tree beside our teaching building — too still to be a leaf. With curiosity, I rushed out to it. However, when I knelt down, my breath caught: a sparrow with one wing broken, feathers knotted, eyes half-closed. “Don’t move,” I whispered, wrapping her in my handkerchief, then dashed back. Ms. Sophie, my English teacher, helped me make a nest from a shoebox and tissues. “We need to act fast,” she said. “Who knows about birds?” Mia, who fed stray cats daily, raised her hand, “My uncle is a vet — he can show us how to cure the wing.” Jake, our art club member, grabbed his drawing book, “I’ll draw diagrams so we won’t mess up.” Lila, who usually kept to herself, spoke up: “I can research what sparrows eat online.” That afternoon, our group crowded around the shoebox. Mia gently held the sparrow while Jake carefully attached a small stick to her broken wing. Lila read aloud from her phone: “Warm water and crushed blueberries, but only a drop at a time.” I took notes, marking when we fed her or changed the tissues. At one point, the sparrow chirped (发啁啾声) softly, and we all froze, grinning. For the first time, we weren’t just classmates-we were a team, each doing what we did best. Problems popped up. The sparrow refused food the next day, and Lila panicked. “Did we hurt her?” Mia checked and shook her head. “Maybe she’s scared. Let’s leave her alone for a while.” We took turns sitting by the window, talking softly so she would get used to our voices. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 By Friday, something different happened. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then came the news that the vet said the sparrow was ready to fly. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
