Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum (最后通牒) about being late on the job. Although there was a good reason for Sam’s being late — serious illness at home — he decided that this by­-now­-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down, preparing a dismissal speech. Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9: 35. The place was as quiet as a locker room (更衣室) and everyone was hard at work. Sam’s supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “I’m Sam Maynard. I’m applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?” The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job — with the only tool that could win — a laugh. Humour is a most effective, yet frequently neglected (忽略) means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it’s the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialogue may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians (喜剧演员) on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance (忍受力) than people in any other forum. 24. Why was Sam late for his job? A. Because he was ill. B. Because he got up late. C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam. D. Because he was busy applying for a new job. 25. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage? A. Many lose life’s battles for they are lacking in a sense of humour. B. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work. C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8: 30. D. Humour is the most effective way of solving problems. 26. The underlined phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means ________ . A. tried to hold back B. tried to set C. charged D. gave out 27. The main idea of this passage is that ________ . A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humour B. humour is important in our lives C. the early bird gets the worm D. humour can solve racial discriminations C In today’s world, a photo can reveal much more than what meets the eye. A groundbreaking student project from Stanford University has shown that artificial intelligence (AI) can now guess the location where a photo was taken with surprising accuracy. The project, named PIGEON, was developed by three graduate students. Initially, they trained the AI system to play a game that involved identifying locations on Google Street View. However, they soon made a remarkable discovery: their AI had learned so much that it could also determine the locations of personal photos it had never seen before. This ability to “geolocate” images moved from a simple game to a powerful new tool. This new technology is a classic double-edged sword, offering both exciting benefits and potential risks. On the positive side, it could help people identify places in old family photographs where the locations have been forgotten. It could also assist field biologists in monitoring plant species and tracking environmental changes more efficiently. For educators, it could become a valuable tool for teaching geography. However, these positive uses come with a concerning downside. As Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst, warns, this technology could expose private location information — used in the wrong hands for business tracking, government surveillance (监控) , or even stalkers (跟踪者) finding victims — making identifying someone’s location from a posted photo a serious privacy and safety risk. The AI achieves this by detecting hidden clues in images that humans might miss, such as vegetation types, soil conditions, architectural styles, and weather patterns; during tests, it accurately identified many locations from the students’ cross-country trip photos (including remote areas) , even locating a specific Yellowstone National Park campsite to within 35 miles. Recognizing these privacy risks, the student creators have wisely decided not to release their full AI model to the public. They hope this will prevent misuse while allowing for discussion about how such technology should be managed. Stanley suggests that as AI continues to evolve, we must all become more aware of the information we share online. A simple photo can reveal our location, and with advancing AI, that information is becoming easier for others to access. This development reminds us that technological progress must be balanced with careful consideration of its ethical (道德的) implications. 28. With regard to PIGEON, what can you learn from the first paragraph? A. It was intended to recognize locations. B. It instructed AI system to take photos. C. It was created for Google by three graduates. D. It was originally expected to locate all the unknown images. 29. According to the passage, what is a potential upside of the project? A. It enables government agents to conduct personal monitoring. B. It allows marketing companies to track consumer behavior. C. It helps stalkers find their victims’ private information. D. It aids students majoring in geography in their studies. 30. Why are the creators of PIGEON not displaying the full model to the public? A. To complete more tests on its performance. B. To maintain originality for their research. C. To avoid giving away privacy and misuse. D. To sell the technology to private companies. 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. To explain the technical principles of the PIGEON project in detail. B. To introduce a powerful but potentially risky new AI technology. C. To criticize the developers for not releasing their AI model. D. To promote the application of AI in environmental protection. D Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert. If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote, you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people’s heads when they aren’t sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter’s likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation. Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters. However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they’d probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn’t want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant. While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they’ll still think of you when the next concert comes to town. 32. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning? A. To explain the background of the invitation. B. To stress the importance of quick replies. C. To encourage immediate decision- making. D. To introduce a common social situation. 33 What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation? A. A biased interpretation of social cues. B. A desire for harmonious communication. C. An underestimation of refusal consequence. D. An understanding of the inviter’s expectation. 34. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph? A. Keeping your options open for better plans. B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships. C. Prioritizing clear response over open options. D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Psychology behind “Maybe” B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe” C. “Maybe”: A Polite Escape from Conflict D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) What would you do if you were lost in the wilderness? You have probably read or heard about people who survive under seemingly impossible conditions. These people have been able to survive by focusing on three basic needs: water, food, and shelter. Water is one of the few substances necessary to sustain (维持) life, but pure water may be difficult to find. ____36____ Exhaustion (疲劳) will cause you to sweat heavily, resulting in a salt shortage that causes dehydration (脱水).

My knees were shaking, and my throat felt drier with every passing second. As I looked around, 30 pairs of eyes were fixed on me, waiting for me to speak. Though I was comfortable sharing my ideas in small group discussions, I felt nervous about speaking in front of the whole class. Fear flooded me, and my mind went blank. I could hear my heart beating in my ears, blocking out the words I wanted to say. I ended up messing up the presentation. With another presentation coming soon, I refused to let fear hold me back again. I decided to sign up to perform at a campus comedy club event. I admired how confident stand-up comedians were, and I hoped I could act like them. When I spoke there later, though my jokes didn’t get much of a reaction, I surprisingly enjoyed being on stage and felt I could do better next time. Inspired by this, I knew I needed advice from someone more experienced. That was when I noticed Sania, a talented performer whose humor and confidence made her the highlight of the evening. I gathered the courage to talk to her and introduced myself as a beginner speaker looking to improve. She listened closely and gave me great advice, “Attend more open microphone (麦克风) events and watch more comedy performances.” Over the next few weeks, I attended more open microphone events and observed how Sania and other skilled comedians made their performances engaging with clever stories. Surprisingly, this helped me understand literature in a new way. I started to think of literature as something to be told. The characters I analyzed became lively figures in a story that I could explain in a more interesting way. Having prepared for some time, I took a chance and asked Sania if she would like to watch my novel presentation and offer advice. She gladly agreed and we met at a study hall one afternoon after school. 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。 I introduced the novel’s main characters to Sania, still a bit nervous. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the time came for my next class presentation, I was quite different. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 金川高级中学教育集团2025-2026学年度第一学期高二年级 学业质量检测（二） 高二英语 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

We haven’t had a photography club at the school for five years, but I wanted to start it again because you no longer need expensive cameras to take good photos. Many of you have mobile phones with cameras that can take great photos in daylight and even at night, but any camera will do. I just wanted to go through how the club will work. We will meet every Thursday from 4:00 p. m. until 6:00 p. m., when we will look at and discuss different photos and photography techniques. We’ll then set a challenge or theme for that week. For example, for this week, we’re going to focus on architecture. Take photos of buildings and then send me your best one. I’ll then select the best three and we’ll vote on which one is the best, with the winner getting a small prize. If you have any questions, come speak to me. 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 Running is not only a way to exercise, but also a link connecting families, supporting public welfare and passing on culture.

Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum (最后通牒) about being late on the job. Although there was a good reason for Sam’s being late — serious illness at home — he decided that this by­-now­-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down, preparing a dismissal speech. Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9: 35. The place was as quiet as a locker room (更衣室) and everyone was hard at work. Sam’s supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “I’m Sam Maynard. I’m applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?” The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job — with the only tool that could win — a laugh. Humour is a most effective, yet frequently neglected (忽略) means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it’s the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialogue may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians (喜剧演员) on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance (忍受力) than people in any other forum. 24. Why was Sam late for his job? A. Because he was ill. B. Because he got up late. C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam. D. Because he was busy applying for a new job. 25. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage? A. Many lose life’s battles for they are lacking in a sense of humour. B. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work. C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8: 30. D. Humour is the most effective way of solving problems. 26. The underlined phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means ________ . A. tried to hold back B. tried to set C charged D. gave out 27. The main idea of this passage is that ________ . A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humour B. humour is important in our lives C. the early bird gets the worm D. humour can solve racial discriminations 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述Sam通过幽默挽回自己工作的故事，强调了幽默的重要性。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about being late on the job. (以我的一个年轻朋友为例，他在收到关于上班迟到的最后通牒后不久，在去上班的路上遇到了交通堵塞。)” 可知，他迟到的原因是他碰上了交通堵塞。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about being late on the job. (以我的一个年轻朋友为例，他在收到关于上班迟到的最后通牒后不久，在去上班的路上遇到了交通堵塞。)”及“Although there was a good reason for Sam's being late — serious illness at home — he decided that this by­-now-­familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. (虽然Sam迟到有一个很好的理由——家里(有人患了)严重的疾病——但他觉得这个现在已经很熟悉的借口再也行不通了。)”可知，Sam不止一次上班迟到了。故选B项。 26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job — with the only tool that could win — a laugh.（房间里爆发出一阵笑声。主管clamped off笑容，走回了办公室。Sam Maynard保住了他的工作——唯一能赢得胜利的手段是——大笑。）可知，Sam开的这个玩笑使人们哄堂大笑，最后Sam保住了自己的工作。而老板为了树立他的威严，仍然强忍住笑。故clamped off表示“试图克制”。故选A项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack — when a touch of humour might well enable us to win.(我们中的许多人都因为正面攻击而输掉了生活中的艰难战斗，而幽默可能会让我们获胜。)” 及最后一段“Humour is a most effective, yet frequently neglected means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. 幽默是处理生活中困难的一种最有效的方法，但往往被忽视。)”并结合Sam通过幽默挽回自己工作的故事可知，文章强调了幽默的重要性。故选B项。 C In today’s world, a photo can reveal much more than what meets the eye. A groundbreaking student project from Stanford University has shown that artificial intelligence (AI) can now guess the location where a photo was taken with surprising accuracy. The project, named PIGEON, was developed by three graduate students. Initially, they trained the AI system to play a game that involved identifying locations on Google Street View. However, they soon made a remarkable discovery: their AI had learned so much that it could also determine the locations of personal photos it had never seen before. This ability to “geolocate” images moved from a simple game to a powerful new tool. This new technology is a classic double-edged sword, offering both exciting benefits and potential risks. On the positive side, it could help people identify places in old family photographs where the locations have been forgotten. It could also assist field biologists in monitoring plant species and tracking environmental changes more efficiently. For educators, it could become a valuable tool for teaching geography. However, these positive uses come with a concerning downside. As Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst, warns, this technology could expose private location information — used in the wrong hands for business tracking, government surveillance (监控) , or even stalkers (跟踪者) finding victims — making identifying someone’s location from a posted photo a serious privacy and safety risk. The AI achieves this by detecting hidden clues in images that humans might miss, such as vegetation types, soil conditions, architectural styles, and weather patterns; during tests, it accurately identified many locations from the students’ cross-country trip photos (including remote areas) , even locating a specific Yellowstone National Park campsite to within 35 miles. Recognizing these privacy risks, the student creators have wisely decided not to release their full AI model to the public. They hope this will prevent misuse while allowing for discussion about how such technology should be managed. Stanley suggests that as AI continues to evolve, we must all become more aware of the information we share online. A simple photo can reveal our location, and with advancing AI, that information is becoming easier for others to access. This development reminds us that technological progress must be balanced with careful consideration of its ethical (道德的) implications. 28. With regard to PIGEON, what can you learn from the first paragraph? A. It was intended to recognize locations. B. It instructed AI system to take photos. C. It was created for Google by three graduates. D. It was originally expected to locate all the unknown images. 29. According to the passage, what is a potential upside of the project? A. It enables government agents to conduct personal monitoring. B. It allows marketing companies to track consumer behavior. C. It helps stalkers find their victims’ private information. D. It aids students majoring in geography in their studies. 30. Why are the creators of PIGEON not displaying the full model to the public? A. To complete more tests on its performance. B. To maintain originality for their research. C. To avoid giving away privacy and misuse. D. To sell the technology to private companies. 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. To explain the technical principles of the PIGEON project in detail. B. To introduce a powerful but potentially risky new AI technology. C. To criticize the developers for not releasing their AI model. D. To promote the application of AI in environmental protection. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了斯坦福大学的一个名为PIGEON的学生项目，该项目展示了人工智能现在能够以惊人的准确性猜测照片拍摄的地点。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Initially, they trained the AI system to play a game that involved identifying locations on Google Street View. However, they soon made a remarkable discovery: their AI had learned so much that it could also determine the locations of personal photos it had never seen before.(起初，他们训练人工智能系统玩一个涉及在谷歌街景上识别位置的游戏。然而，他们很快有了一个惊人的发现：他们的人工智能学到了很多东西，它还可以确定它从未见过的个人照片的位置。)”可知，PIGEON的目的是识别位置。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For educators, it could become a valuable tool for teaching geography.(对于教育工作者来说，它可以成为教授地理的宝贵工具。)”可知，这个项目的潜在好处是它帮助地理专业的学生学习。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Recognizing these privacy risks, the student creators have wisely decided not to release their full AI model to the public.(认识到这些隐私风险，学生创造者明智地决定不向公众发布他们的完整人工智能模型。)”可知，PIGEON的创造者没有向公众展示完整的模型是为了避免泄露隐私和滥用。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段主要介绍了斯坦福大学的一个名为PIGEON的学生项目，该项目展示了人工智能现在能够以惊人的准确性猜测照片拍摄的地点；第二段主要介绍了这个项目的好处；第三段主要介绍了这个项目的潜在风险；第四段主要介绍了PIGEON的创造者没有向公众发布他们的完整人工智能模型，以避免泄露隐私和滥用。由此可知，这篇文章主要介绍了一种强大但有潜在风险的新人工智能技术。故选B。 D Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert. If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote, you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people’s heads when they aren’t sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter’s likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation. Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters. However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they’d probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn’t want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant. While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they’ll still think of you when the next concert comes to town. 32. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning? A. To explain the background of the invitation. B. To stress the importance of quick replies. C. To encourage immediate decision- making. D. To introduce a common social situation. 33. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation? A. A biased interpretation of social cues. B. A desire for harmonious communication. C. An underestimation of refusal consequence. D. An understanding of the inviter’s expectation. 34. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph? A. Keeping your options open for better plans. B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships. C. Prioritizing clear response over open options. D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Psychology behind “Maybe” B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe” C. “Maybe”: A Polite Escape from Conflict D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍人们收到邀请时回复“Maybe”这一常见社交现象，分析其背后原因及特定应对情况，并给出直接回应的建议。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert.(想象一下，你赢得了两张售罄音乐会的门票，急切地发短信问朋友是否愿意一起去。他们回复“也许吧”。你的心情立刻变了，因为你需要等他们做决定，才能确定自己的音乐会计划)”以及第二段中的“If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote, you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life.(如果你有过类似上述轶事的经历，你并不孤单。人们对邀请回复“也许”是社交生活中常见却令人恼火的一面)”可知，作者开头提及音乐会轶事，是为了引出人们对邀请回复“Maybe”这一常见社交场景。故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open.(我们发现，这在很大程度上是由一种叫做“动机性推理”的东西导致的。当一个人以有偏差的方式解读信息以迎合自己的意愿时，就会发生动机性推理。换句话说，受邀者会说服自己，邀请者更想听到“也许”而不是“不”，因为“也许”对受邀者更有利，能让他们保留选择的余地)”可知，人们对邀请回复“Maybe”的主要原因是对社交信号有偏差的解读。故选A项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they’ll still think of you when the next concert comes to town.(虽然应对社交场合可能很棘手，但有时直接明确是最好的选择。这可能会减少你的选择，但能避免邀请你的人陷入不确定的状态，而且当下一场音乐会来临时，他们或许还会想到你)”可知，作者建议优先选择清晰明确的回应，而非保留选择余地。故选C项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章开头以音乐会轶事引出人们对邀请回复“Maybe”的现象，接着在第三段分析了这一现象背后“动机性推理”的心理原因，第四段介绍了人们更愿意说“不”的特定情况，最后给出直接回应的建议。全文围绕“Maybe”背后的心理机制展开，因此A项“‘Maybe’背后的心理学”概括了文章主题，最适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) What would you do if you were lost in the wilderness? You have probably read or heard about people who survive under seemingly impossible conditions. These people have been able to survive by focusing on three basic needs: water, food, and shelter. Water is one of the few substances necessary to sustain (维持) life, but pure water may be difficult to find. ____36____ Exhaustion (疲劳) will cause you to sweat heavily, resulting in a salt shortage that causes dehydration (脱水). An easy way to collect water is to collect dew (露水) in the morning for water. Feeling of hunger can be ignored with a positive attitude. ____37____ Some people have to eat insects, earthworms and other animals that are easy to catch. Plants, however, should not be eaten unless they are not poisonous. ____38____ Knobby berries, such as blackberries and raspberries, are also simple to identify. ___39___ In heavy rains or snow, you can build a shelter with branches and ropes. Use as many branches as possible for added stability and protection against the wind and weather. If you are in a desert environment, try to build an underground shade shelter to avoid sun exposure.

An experienced guide ____56____ (name) Li Qiang helps groups spot colorful birds like woodpeckers. Birdwatching here started in 2002 ____57____ scientist Gao Wu created a special path to study birds. 238 types of birds, according to Wu, ____58____ (find) in the park by 2023. The mix of tall trees and fallen woods provides food and shelter, making it ____59____ perfect home for birds. Birdwatching used to be a hobby for the elderly, but now it’s popular with young Chinese. In 2023, over 340,000 people ____60____ (enjoy) birdwatching — twice as many as five years earlier. Social media apps like Xiaohongshu have thousands of posts about birdwatching equipment and photos. “It’s not just about taking pictures, ____61____ about learning birds’ names, understanding their behavior, and feeling closer to nature,” says 26-year-old Wang Cui. This birdwatching matches China’s efforts to protect nature, like creating ____62____ (nation) parks and planting more forests.

Some students hold the view that reading a book is better in that they can stop wherever they need to digest or reflect on the material or write down important points for subsequent review However, others argue that listening to a book can take place anytime and anyplace, which saves them the trouble of carrying books wherever they go. And listening to a book can more easily get them immersed in what the speaker is saying. I think we should deal with serious books by reading, and books for relaxation can be done by listening. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以“Is Reading a Book Better than Listening to It?”为题的讨论写一篇短文向校英文报投稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 有分歧的：divided→be at variance 沉浸于：immersed in→obsessed with 处理：deal with→handle 重要的：important→crucial 2.句式拓展 句型转换 原句：However, others argue that listening to a book can take place anytime and anyplace, which saves them the trouble of carrying books wherever they go. 拓展句：While some may have different opinions, others argue that since listening to a book is possible anytime and anyplace, it eliminates the trouble of carrying books around everywhere. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Some students hold the view that reading a book is better in that they can stop wherever they need to digest or reflect on the material or write down important points for subsequent review.（运用了that引导同位语从句，in that引导原因状语从句，whatever引导的宾语从句以及不定式作目的状语） 【高分句型2】However, others argue that listening to a book can take place anytime and anyplace, which saves them the trouble of carrying books wherever they go.（运用了that引导宾语从句，which引导定语从句以及whatever引导让步状语从句） 第二节(满分25分) 67. 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。 It was a presentation for my literature class, where every student had to present their analysis of a classic novel. My knees were shaking, and my throat felt drier with every passing second. As I looked around, 30 pairs of eyes were fixed on me, waiting for me to speak. Though I was comfortable sharing my ideas in small group discussions, I felt nervous about speaking in front of the whole class. Fear flooded me, and my mind went blank. I could hear my heart beating in my ears, blocking out the words I wanted to say. I ended up messing up the presentation. With another presentation coming soon, I refused to let fear hold me back again. I decided to sign up to perform at a campus comedy club event. I admired how confident stand-up comedians were, and I hoped I could act like them. When I spoke there later, though my jokes didn’t get much of a reaction, I surprisingly enjoyed being on stage and felt I could do better next time. Inspired by this, I knew I needed advice from someone more experienced. That was when I noticed Sania, a talented performer whose humor and confidence made her the highlight of the evening. I gathered the courage to talk to her and introduced myself as a beginner speaker looking to improve. She listened closely and gave me great advice, “Attend more open microphone (麦克风) events and watch more comedy performances.” Over the next few weeks, I attended more open microphone events and observed how Sania and other skilled comedians made their performances engaging with clever stories. Surprisingly, this helped me understand literature in a new way. I started to think of literature as something to be told. The characters I analyzed became lively figures in a story that I could explain in a more interesting way. Having prepared for some time, I took a chance and asked Sania if she would like to watch my novel presentation and offer advice. She gladly agreed and we met at a study hall one afternoon after school. 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。 I introduced the novel’s main characters to Sania, still a bit nervous. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the time came for my next class presentation, I was quite different. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I introduced the novel’s main characters to Sania, still a bit nervous. Sania listened carefully, nodding now and then. When I finished, she smiled warmly. “You did well, but try to slow down and make your points clearer,” Sania suggested. “And if you feel nervous, take a deep breath. Focus on connecting with your audience, not just presenting to them. Think of them as friends who are curious to hear your story.” Her specific advice removed my anxiety and increased my confidence. It greatly improved my approach and made me feel well prepared. When the time came for my next class presentation, I was quite different. As I spoke, I remembered Sania’s advice about engaging the audience with proper eye contact. I slowed down, focusing on connecting with my classmates as if they were my friends. Then I continued to express myself smoothly and confidently. This time, I received a round of loud applause, unlike the previous silence. I realized effective communication is just as important as the content itself. And thanks to Sania’s patience and support, I have experienced significant growth in the process. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在文学课上的紧张表现、为了克服恐惧而参加校园喜剧俱乐部活动、向有经验的表演者Sania寻求建议，以及最终在下次课堂展示中取得成功的过程，展现了作者从紧张不安到自信表达的心路历程。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我向Sania介绍了小说的主要人物，心里还是有点紧张。”以及第二段首句内容“当我下一次在课堂上做展示的时候，我已经判若两人了。”可知，第一段可描写Sania认真听完作者的展示后，给出了一些建议，作者提高了自信。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我下一次在课堂上做展示的时候，我已经判若两人了。”可知，第二段可描写在Sania的指导下，作者的展示非常成功。 2.续写线索：作者向Sania介绍了小说的主要人物，内心还是有点紧张——Sania认真听着，并且给出了一些实用的建议——她建议作者要和听众建立联系——她的建议消除了作者的焦虑，增强了作者的信心——作者的再次展示非常成功——这一次，作者得到了听众的掌声——多亏了Sania的耐心和指导，作者得到了成长 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建议：suggest/make a suggestion ②专注于：focus on/concentrate on ③将……当作：think of…as/regard…as… 情绪类 ①紧张的：nervous/tense ②焦虑：anxiety/inquietude 【点睛】【高分句型1】When I finished, she smiled warmly.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】As I spoke, I remembered Sania’s advice about engaging the audience with proper eye contact.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 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，第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。I'm longing to visit more places.
