Let’s explore some of the best reserves worldwide. Elephant Nature Park, Thailand Thailand is one of those in Asia that have an enormous number of elephants in their natural ecosystems. The Elephant Nature Park, a shelter for abandoned and rescued animals, was built in Northern Thailand. One could take a trip to look after animals and use accessible facilities for an overnight stay.

Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (繁殖), China Pandas, one of the globe’s cutest species, were unfortunately on the edge of extinction due to habitat damage.

Located in Sichuan Province, the natural park also offers visitor hikes and provides pandas with modern breeding and disease control. Kidepo Valley National Park, Uganda Uganda is situated between South Sudan and Kenya. The Kidepo Valley National Park is located right within their boundaries and at the highest point in Uganda.

The sanctuary even offers night stays in an elephant herd, to enjoy the pleasures of nature. (人们可以前往这里照料动物，还能使用便利的设施过夜。该保护区甚至提供与象群共处的夜间住宿体验，以享受大自然的乐趣)”可知，游客可以在该公园享受过夜住宿。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, China部分中“Located in Sichuan Province, the natural park also offers visitor hikes and provides pandas with modern breeding and disease control. (该自然公园位于四川省，不仅为游客提供徒步旅行活动，还为大熊猫配备了现代化的繁育与疾病防控设施)”和Kidepo Valley National Park, Uganda部分中“Scenic walks, for instance, are popular activities for visitors in this area. Bird watching and wildlife tours are other enjoyable hobbies. (比如，徒步赏景是该地区游客喜爱的活动。观鸟和野生动物观光则是另外两种惬意的休闲选择)”可知，后两个保护区的共同点是都提供自然徒步活动。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Let’s explore some of the best reserves worldwide. (让我们探索一下世界上几处最好的保护区)”可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍一些保护区。故选D。 B Earth is filled with an amazing variety of creatures and an artist has put its diversity on display like never before. Anton Thomas of New Zealand has created a hand-drawn map of the entire planet that features animals in their natural habitats. His journey began in childhood, drawing imaginary worlds on his bedroom walls in Nelson. Thomas, as a child, longed for a world where nature ruled dominant. His map represents the “ideal planet that I wanted,” Thomas said. “I would see all the houses, and imagine what it was like before any humans showed up.” After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career. Thomas’s first major project, a massive map of North America, consumed five years of his life. Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. “These represent real homes, not abstract (抽象的) art,” he stresses, explaining his thorough approach. The completed work earned recognition from National Geographic and The New York Times. Retired cartographer Tom Patterson praises its uniqueness: no digital tools were used, just pencil and paper. During the 2020 lockdowns, Thomas started his masterpiece: “Wild World.” Three years, approximately 2,602 working hours and 1,642 animal species later, “Wild World” is a hand-drawn map of our planet that both inspires and celebrates wonder. For three years, he carefully drew animals in their natural habitats using colored pencils and a magnifying glass (放大镜). The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work. Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.” 4. What inspired Thomas to return to mapmaking? A. An opportunity to decorate a fridge. B. An offer from National Geographic. C. A journey in his childhood. D. His interest in cartography. 5. How did Thomas work on his first project? A. He worked mainly during the day. B. He kept working on it to improve. C. He used digital tools to save time. D. He followed others’ instructions. 6. Which statement best describes Thomas and his map “Wild World”? A. He sees it as a rough draft for bigger ideas. B. He feels proud and emotionally connected to it. C. He regrets spending too much time on it. D. He believes it deserves more public attention. 7. What does Thomas’s experience show? A. Education inspires creativity. B. Art shows truth. C. Passion fuels achievement. D. Tools limit art. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了新西兰艺术家安东·托马斯凭借手绘地图展示地球生物多样性的故事。他从小就对自然世界充满向往，在一次偶然的机会下重拾对制图学的热情，最终创作了手绘地图《野生世界》，并成为全职艺术家分享自己的独特视角。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career. (在做了多年的厨师和音乐家之后，一次偶然的机会，他受邀装饰蒙特利尔的一台旧冰箱，这重新点燃了他对制图学的热情，开启了一段非凡的职业生涯)”可知，一次装饰旧冰箱的偶然机会重新点燃了托马斯对制图学的热情，促使他回归地图绘制。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. (在教书工作结束后的晚上，随着技艺的提高，他经常重新绘制一些部分)”可知，托马斯不断改进完善他的第一个项目。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work. (这个项目原本计划为期六个月，后来却成了一项让他全身心投入的热爱之事，他认为这是自己最出色的作品)”可知，《野生世界》这个项目虽然远超原计划时间，却成为他全身心投入的热爱之作，并且他认为这是自己最出色的作品，由此可推知他对这幅地图感到自豪且情感上与之紧密相连。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。纵览全文，结合最后一段“Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.” (如今身为一名全职艺术家，托马斯不断在手工绘制地图领域开拓边界。从小学到斯坦福大学，他都在分享自己独特的视角。“每一幅地图都讲述着两个故事，”他说，“我们看到的地理风貌，以及赋予其生命力的那份热情。”)”可知，文章主要讲述了托马斯从小就对自然世界有向往，后来因偶然机会重拾对制图的热情，之后投入大量时间和精力创作手绘地图，最终成为全职艺术家。他的经历体现了热情对成就的推动作用。因此，C项“Passion fuels achievement (热情推动成就)”符合文意。故选C项。 C When seeing someone being kind or generous, we feel warm inside. Researchers call this “moral elevation (提升),” and it not only feels good but inspires us to do good ourselves. But how much does witnessing good affect us—and why? A new analysis of decades of research aimed to find out the answers. The results suggest that our acts of kindness and generosity, online or offline, can have meaningful ripple effects (连锁反应) in our communities. Researchers combined results from 88 studies involving over 25,000 participants to measure how much our own kindness increases after witnessing someone acting generously—for example, comforting someone crying, donating to charity, or acting cooperatively in a competitive game. In the studies, people would read about or see someone act in a kind way and then have the opportunity to be kind and generous themselves. The analysis showed a reasonably strong effect, where people witnessing kindness tended to act kindness themselves. “The message that the prosocial (亲社会的) behaviors are quite infectious is a really important message that people should know.” says the lead researcher, Haesung Jung. Interestingly, her analyses showed that it didn’t matter how people witnessed a kind act. They could have read about it, watched a TV show, or actually been present when someone helped others. It also doesn’t matter whether or not they saw someone giving material or non-material help. But there were factors that did affect how inspired people were to pay it forward. The more time that had passed since people saw a selfless act, the lower their motivation to help others. It also mattered what kind of response to the kindness people observed. If witnesses saw such people praised or even rewarded with money, they would have a greater likelihood to pay it forward themselves. The research is of great value for society—particularly now, when we need people to act in more prosocial ways. “In organizations, educational settings, and just everyday life, it’s important to highlight kindness, caring, and good social behavior,” says Jung. “Doing good has a much larger impact than people realize.” 8. What is the core nature of moral elevation? A. The desire to help others directly. B. Online and off line community effects. C. Cooperation in taking generous actions. D. Positive impacts from observing kindness. 9. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By tracking witnesses’ behavior for decades. B. By interviewing subjects about their moral beliefs. C. By analyzing former studies about kindness increase. D. By comparing participants’ responses to being helped. 10. Who is more likely to pass on the kindness according to the text? A. A person reading stories of giving online. B. A person seeing kindness being recognized. C. A person noticing others offer non-material help. D. A person experiencing a kind act a few years ago. 11 What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Challenges in maintaining consistent generosity. B. Approaches to studying prosocial behavior trends. C. Significance of encouraging prosocial acts in society. D. Necessity for educating the public to present kindness. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究表明，目睹善举（无论方式、形式）会让人更愿行善，其受时间和对善举的回应影响，此研究对社会意义重大。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Researchers call this “moral elevation (提升),” and it not only feels good but inspires us to do good ourselves.( 研究人员称之为“道德提升”，它不仅让人感觉良好，还激励我们自己做好事。)”以及第二段中“The results suggest that our acts of kindness and generosity, online or offline, can have meaningful ripple effects (连锁反应) in our communities.( 研究结果表明，我们的善良和慷慨行为，无论是在线上还是线下，都能在我们的社区产生有意义的连锁反应。)”可知，“道德提升”指的是目睹善举后产生的积极影响，包括内心的温暖和行善的动力。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Researchers combined results from 88 studies involving over 25,000 participants to measure how much our own kindness increases after witnessing someone acting generously(研究人员综合了88项研究的结果，涉及25000多名参与者，以衡量在目睹某人的慷慨行为。)”可推知，研究人员通过分析 88 项过往研究的结果来开展这项研究。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中“If witnesses saw such people praised or even rewarded with money, they would have a greater likelihood to pay it forward themselves.( 如果目击者看到这样的人受到表扬，甚至得到金钱奖励，他们更有可能把自己的爱传递出去。)”，可推知，看到善举得到认可（表扬或奖励）的人更有可能传递善意。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容尤其是“The research is of great value for society—particularly now, when we need people to act in more prosocial ways.( 这项研究对社会有很大的价值，尤其是现在，当我们需要人们以更亲社会的方式行事的时候。)”可知，最后一段主要讲的是在社会中鼓励亲社会行为的意义。故选C项。 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most of us have been there: Families can be very difficult; family problems are very painful. ____12____ There are ways to solve family problems and restore relationships.

Usually, Mom was awake making breakfast and cleaning the kitchen, but not today. At the sound of his mom coughing, Jeremy knocked on her bedroom door and asked with great concern if she was okay. “Honey,” Mom said weakly. “I have a terrible cold. You can have cereal (燕麦) for breakfast and watch cartoons. I’m going to stay in bed.” Jeremy poured some cereal into a bowl and ate the pieces dry. Mom must feel very bad if she was staying in bed all day. How could Jeremy help? First, he wiped up the crumbs of cereal he left on the kitchen counter. He also put away the cereal box neatly, so the kitchen looked just as it did when he woke up. But what else could he do? Jeremy thought. Saturday was the day when mom did some washing. Jeremy loved to watch the clothes spinning in the machine. That should be fun! He ran to his room to get the clothes basket, inside which there was his mother’s favorite white dress, among other clothes and a pair of red socks. Jeremy opened the door to the washer and put the clothes inside. He had watched Mom do the washing lots of times, so he knew where to find the washing powder and how to pour it into the machine. Finally, he closed the door and pressed the big button that said “START.” Jeremy looked through the round glass window. Water was pouring in, and the machine was starting to spin, making his clothing tumble around. That was easy! Jeremy watched cartoons until he heard the washing machine beep. That meant the washing was done. Jeremy opened the door to take out the damp clothes. He took out a few at a time and moved them into the dryer. Everything seemed clean, and Jeremy felt proud. Then he pulled out a pink dress. 注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 But he remembered there was no pink dress in the clothes basket. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Holding the pink dress, Jeremy dragged himself towards his mom’s bedroom. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 But he remembered there was no pink dress in the laundry basket. Overwhelmed by a surge of confusion, Jeremy pulled out a few more clothes and checked over each item. As his eyes rested on the red socks, Jeremy was sure that he had found the answer. His heart missed a beat—he had spoiled his mom’s favorite dress by not washing them separately! Panic seized Jeremy, leaving him in a sweat. However, he knew he had to face the music. He took a deep breath to compose himself. Holding the pink dress, Jeremy dragged himself towards his mom’s bedroom. Hardly had he approached the bedside when Mom noticed her son’s unease. She sat up, asking him what was wrong. Jeremy held out the pink dress, stumbling through an explanation. “I know you meant to help,” Mom beamed at Jeremy. Then she held the dress up before her and said in an approving tone, “I think it looks nice.” At this, Jeremy grinned from ear to ear, giving his mom a warm hug. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jeremy看到妈妈身体不舒服想为妈妈洗衣服，却忘了将衣服分开写，导致妈妈最爱的白裙子变成了粉色。妈妈看到粉裙子后安慰了Jeremy。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“但他记起洗衣篮里没有粉红色的裙子。”以及第二段首句内容“Jeremy拿着粉红色的裙子，拖着沉重的步子走向妈妈的卧室。”可知，第一段可描写Jeremy明白了红袜子掉色，将白裙子变成了粉色裙子。 ②由第二段首句内容“Jeremy拿着粉红色的裙子，拖着沉重的步子走向妈妈的卧室。”可知，第二段可描写Jeremy向妈妈承认自己的错误，得到了妈妈的安慰。 2.续写线索：Jeremy一早醒来，发现屋子里很安静——Jeremy来到妈妈的卧室，才发现妈妈生病了——Jeremy自己吃了早餐，并收拾了厨房——这时，Jeremy想起可以帮助妈妈洗衣服——Jeremy把所有的衣服一股脑儿地扔进了洗衣机——洗好衣服后，Jeremy发现妈妈的白色裙子被红袜子染成了粉色——Jeremy非常内疚，主动向妈妈承认了错误——妈妈安慰了Jeremy 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓住：catch/seize ②打算：meant to do/intend to do ③微笑：beam/smile 情绪类 ①困惑：confusion/bewilderment ②不安：unease/restlessness 【点睛】【高分句型1】As his eyes rested on the red socks, Jeremy was sure that he had found the answer.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句和that引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】Hardly had he approached the bedside when Mom noticed her son’s unease.（运用了when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 $ 2025-2026学年度第一学期期中调研试题 高二英语 考试时间：120分钟满分：150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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

His map represents the “ideal planet that I wanted,” Thomas said. “I would see all the houses, and imagine what it was like before any humans showed up.” After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career. Thomas’s first major project, a massive map of North America, consumed five years of his life. Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. “These represent real homes, not abstract (抽象的) art,” he stresses, explaining his thorough approach. The completed work earned recognition from National Geographic and The New York Times. Retired cartographer Tom Patterson praises its uniqueness: no digital tools were used, just pencil and paper. During the 2020 lockdowns, Thomas started his masterpiece: “Wild World.” Three years, approximately 2,602 working hours and 1,642 animal species later, “Wild World” is a hand-drawn map of our planet that both inspires and celebrates wonder. For three years, he carefully drew animals in their natural habitats using colored pencils and a magnifying glass (放大镜). The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work. Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.” 4. What inspired Thomas to return to mapmaking? A. An opportunity to decorate a fridge. B. An offer from National Geographic. C. A journey in his childhood. D. His interest in cartography. 5. How did Thomas work on his first project? A. He worked mainly during the day. B. He kept working on it to improve. C. He used digital tools to save time. D. He followed others’ instructions. 6. Which statement best describes Thomas and his map “Wild World”? A. He sees it as a rough draft for bigger ideas. B. He feels proud and emotionally connected to it. C. He regrets spending too much time on it. D. He believes it deserves more public attention. 7. What does Thomas’s experience show? A. Education inspires creativity. B. Art shows truth. C. Passion fuels achievement. D. Tools limit art. C When seeing someone being kind or generous, we feel warm inside. Researchers call this “moral elevation (提升),” and it not only feels good but inspires us to do good ourselves. But how much does witnessing good affect us—and why? A new analysis of decades of research aimed to find out the answers. The results suggest that our acts of kindness and generosity, online or offline, can have meaningful ripple effects (连锁反应) in our communities. Researchers combined results from 88 studies involving over 25,000 participants to measure how much our own kindness increases after witnessing someone acting generously—for example, comforting someone crying, donating to charity, or acting cooperatively in a competitive game. In the studies, people would read about or see someone act in a kind way and then have the opportunity to be kind and generous themselves. The analysis showed a reasonably strong effect, where people witnessing kindness tended to act kindness themselves. “The message that the prosocial (亲社会的) behaviors are quite infectious is a really important message that people should know.” says the lead researcher, Haesung Jung. Interestingly, her analyses showed that it didn’t matter how people witnessed a kind act. They could have read about it, watched a TV show, or actually been present when someone helped others. It also doesn’t matter whether or not they saw someone giving material or non-material help. But there were factors that did affect how inspired people were to pay it forward. The more time that had passed since people saw a selfless act, the lower their motivation to help others. It also mattered what kind of response to the kindness people observed. If witnesses saw such people praised or even rewarded with money, they would have a greater likelihood to pay it forward themselves. The research is of great value for society—particularly now, when we need people to act in more prosocial ways. “In organizations, educational settings, and just everyday life, it’s important to highlight kindness, caring, and good social behavior,” says Jung. “Doing good has a much larger impact than people realize.” 8. What is the core nature of moral elevation? A. The desire to help others directly. B. Online and off line community effects. C. Cooperation in taking generous actions. D. Positive impacts from observing kindness. 9. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By tracking witnesses’ behavior for decades. B. By interviewing subjects about their moral beliefs. C. By analyzing former studies about kindness increase. D. By comparing participants’ responses to being helped. 10. Who is more likely to pass on the kindness according to the text? A. A person reading stories of giving online. B. A person seeing kindness being recognized. C. A person noticing others offer non-material help. D. A person experiencing a kind act a few years ago. 11. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Challenges in maintaining consistent generosity. B Approaches to studying prosocial behavior trends. C. Significance of encouraging prosocial acts in society. D. Necessity for educating the public to present kindness. 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most of us have been there: Families can be very difficult; family problems are very painful. ____12____ There are ways to solve family problems and restore relationships.

Usually, Mom was awake making breakfast and cleaning the kitchen, but not today. At the sound of his mom coughing, Jeremy knocked on her bedroom door and asked with great concern if she was okay. “Honey,” Mom said weakly. “I have a terrible cold. You can have cereal (燕麦) for breakfast and watch cartoons. I’m going to stay in bed.” Jeremy poured some cereal into a bowl and ate the pieces dry. Mom must feel very bad if she was staying in bed all day. How could Jeremy help? First, he wiped up the crumbs of cereal he left on the kitchen counter. He also put away the cereal box neatly, so the kitchen looked just as it did when he woke up. But what else could he do? Jeremy thought. Saturday was the day when mom did some washing. Jeremy loved to watch the clothes spinning in the machine. That should be fun! He ran to his room to get the clothes basket, inside which there was his mother’s favorite white dress, among other clothes and a pair of red socks. Jeremy opened the door to the washer and put the clothes inside. He had watched Mom do the washing lots of times, so he knew where to find the washing powder and how to pour it into the machine. Finally, he closed the door and pressed the big button that said “START.” Jeremy looked through the round glass window. Water was pouring in, and the machine was starting to spin, making his clothing tumble around. That was easy! Jeremy watched cartoons until he heard the washing machine beep. That meant the washing was done. Jeremy opened the door to take out the damp clothes. He took out a few at a time and moved them into the dryer. Everything seemed clean, and Jeremy felt proud. Then he pulled out a pink dress. 注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 But he remembered there was no pink dress in the clothes basket. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Holding the pink dress, Jeremy dragged himself towards his mom’s bedroom. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
